Liberty Global's UPC Netherlands Operation Confirms 2006 Video Rates and Its Introductory Offer for Digital TV

Dutch Minister of Economic Affairs Supports UPC's Digital TV Strategy

DENVER, Oct. 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Liberty Global, Inc. ("Liberty Global") (NASDAQ:LBTYA)(NASDAQ:LBTYB)(NASDAQ:LBTYK) today announced that its UPC Netherlands operation has confirmed its 2006 video rates and its introductory offer of UPC Digital TV. Before establishing its product proposition for digital television, UPC Netherlands held constructive discussions over the past few months with various parties, including the Dutch Minister of Economic Affairs, Laurens-Jan Brinkhorst.

From January 1, 2006, UPC will offer its customers Digital TV from EUR 17.99. This digital basic package includes 42 channels plus a UPC MediaBox. An expanded digital package with 72 channels is available for EUR 19.99. Included in both digital packages is the current analog product which consists, on average, of 30 channels. Customers who sign up for a digital package will receive a special introductory offer whereby they will only pay the rate for basic analog TV during their first 6 months.

Customers who only receive analog television will continue to pay the harmonized standard rate, which is currently EUR 15.53. This analog rate will be subject to an inflation adjustment on January 1, 2006. Last month, the Dutch anti-trust agency NMa concluded that UPC did not charge excessive tariffs in recent years or abuse its position as a supplier of TV services. Furthermore, the Dutch Minister of Economic Affairs has expressly supported UPC's new digital video product proposition.

The UPC Digital TV includes an Electronic Program Guide (EPG), interactive services such as tv-email, games and tv-internet, and services which enable voting, buying and selection via the television. In 2006, UPC Netherlands will introduce a Personal Video Recorder (PVR) option and, in cooperation with Philips, introduce a MediaBox which is High Definition (HD) capable. UPC and Philips recently announced a strategic cooperation for HDTV, including joint marketing and promotion activities around major international sporting events such as the 2006 World Cup.

The majority of existing Mediaboxes include a cable modem to facilitate the take-up of high-speed Internet services. A true "Triple Play" Mediabox will soon be available that also includes a voice modem to support UPC's digital phone services.
