TIME WARNER CABLE MERGER COULD BRING FASTER INTERNET TO CINCINNATI
Originally appeared in Cincinnati Business Courier
June 30, 2015
By Andy Brownfield

The proposed merger between Time Warner Cable and Charter Communications could quadruple Internet speeds for current Time Warner customers in Cincinnati.
The merged company, New Charter, would provide existing Time Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC) customers with the same speeds and service offered to Charter Communications (Nasdaq: CHTR) currently, according to a public interest statement filed with the Federal Communications Commission on June 25.
Charter's slowest current broadband speed is 60 megabits-per-second (Mbps). That's 10 times faster than Time Warner's basic tier, which offers 6 Mbps. Time Warner's current top speed is 50 Mbps.
Charter offers that 60 Mbps Internet service for $39.99 a month. For the same price, Time Warner customers can currently get 15 Mbps service in Cincinnati.

CHARTER-TIME WARNER CABLE MERGER COULD MEAN QUADRUPLED INTERNET SPEEDS IN LOUISVILLE
Originally appeared in Louisville Business First
June 29, 2015
By Rachel Aretakis

Faster Internet speeds might be in the future for Louisvillians if Charter Communications Inc.'s planned merger with Time Warner Cable Inc. is approved.

In a public interest statement filed last week, Charter Communications (NASDAQ: CHTR) said it would raise minimum broadband speeds to 60 Megabits per second in new markets it would acquire in the merger.

Those speeds are four times faster than the minimum speeds Time Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC) currently offers in Louisville, but for the same price.

If the Federal Communications Commission approves the merger, Louisville's new cable and Internet provider would be called New Charter. It's part of a larger deal in which Charter also will acquire Bright




House Networks LLC, the sixth largest cable operator in the country serving about 2.5 million customers. TWC is valued at $78.8 billion and Bright House Networks at $10.4 billion, according to a news release.

CHARTER: TIME WARNER CABLE CUSTOMERS WILL SEE 4X FASTER INTERNET SPEEDS
Originally appeared in Syracuse.com

By Rick Moriarty

Syracuse, N.Y. - Time Warner Cable and Bright House Networks customers can expect much faster broadband speeds if the companies' acquisition by Charter Communications goes through, according to Charter.

In a document seeking the FCC's approval of license transfers related to the proposed acquisitions, Charter said this week it would offer a minimum download speed of 60 Mbps to Time Warner Cable and Bright House customers. That's four times faster than the 15 Mbps download speed Time Warner Cable and Bright House provide in their standard Internet service.

The faster speed of 60 Mbps is the slowest speed that Charter currently offers its customers. The fastest speed offered by Time Warner Cable to residential customers is 50 Mbps for its "Ultimate" service, according to its website. Bright House, which mostly serves central Florida, offers Internet tiers of up to 300 Mbps.
