ntl Incorporated announces proposed refinancing
-----------------------------------------------

New York, New York (March 4, 2004) - ntl Incorporated today announced that
it is evaluating a possible refinancing transaction in order to take
advantage of market conditions. The refinancing would most likely consist
of a new senior secured credit facility and a high yield bond offering,
although no assurance can be given as to the timing or success of any
refinancing.

The proposed senior secured credit facility, if consummated on the terms
contemplated, would provide ntl with up to (pound)2.425 billion and would
be led by Credit Suisse First Boston, Deutsche Bank AG London, Goldman
Sachs and Morgan Stanley as joint arrangers and bookrunners.

The high yield bonds would be offered only to "qualified institutional
buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended) and/or to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933
Act.

ntl intends to use the net proceeds of the proposed refinancing
transaction, together with cash on hand, to repay in full the group's
existing (pound)2.785 billion senior credit facilities and certain other
indebtedness of the group. The aim of the new financing is to extend the
maturity of ntl's indebtedness and to provide a lower-cost and more
flexible capital structure.
