Commenting on the transaction, President and CEO Mike Fries said, “As this refinancing demonstrates, we continue to have access to the capital markets and will take advantage of opportunities to further extend our debt maturity schedule. Even though we have no material near-term amortizations, we believe that refinancing 2012 maturities with debt due in 2014 and 2015 is prudent in this environment and we do so with the support of our lenders. With this transaction, approximately 95% of UPC Holding’s debt is due in or after 2013. As we look ahead, we are focused on ensuring that our balance sheet is optimized in order to capitalize on growth opportunities within our business and ultimately drive shareholder returns.” For additional information on the transaction, please see the Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by Liberty Global with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to this refinancing.
