Showtime Networks' programming services are featured in Mediacom's Two-Star Pak. This package includes up to 22 channels of SHOWTIME UNLIMITED in standard definition along with other services for one low price. In areas where Mediacom offers on demand capabilities, and in additional markets as they are launched, customers with the Two-Star Pak featuring SHOWTIME also receive SHOWTIME ON DEMAND and THE MOVIE CHANNEL ON DEMAND at no additional charge.

Both SHOWTIME HD and THE MOVIE CHANNEL HD are available in areas where Mediacom offers high-definition service and will be accessible in additional markets as Mediacom continues to roll out its HDTV service.

"SHOWTIME ON DEMAND, THE MOVIE CHANNEL ON DEMAND and SHOWTIME HD and THE MOVIE CHANNEL HD offer 24-hour access to our movies and top quality original programming such as the critically-acclaimed series HUFF and the highly- anticipated series FAT ACTRESS. This will provide Mediacom subscribers with the optimum array of Showtime premium choices," said Showtime Networks' Executive Vice President Mark Greenberg. "Featuring SNI services, including on demand, in their new aggressive packaging will help Mediacom attract new customers to digital by increasing the value customers receive as they enter the category."

John Pascarelli, Mediacom's Executive Vice President, Operations stated, "Our agreement with Showtime Networks is part of our continuing effort to provide our subscribers with exclusive cable services like on demand, more pricing choices and a richer lineup of quality high-definition channels. We are working hard to bring these services and value packages to all of our customers."
