NOT FOR GENERAL DISTRIBUTION
LISTING PARTICULARS
IN THE UNITED STATES

$900,000,000 61/8% Senior Notes due 2025
issued by
Unitymedia KabelBW GmbH

Unitymedia KabelBW GmbH (the "Issuer") offered $900,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 61/8% Senior
Notes due 2025 (the "Notes"). The Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.125% per annum. Interest on the Notes is payable
semi-annually on each January 15 and July 15, beginning on July 15, 2015. The Notes mature on January 15, 2025.
Some or all of the Notes may be redeemed at any time prior to January 15, 2020 at a redemption price equal to
100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date and a
"make-whole" premium, as described in this Listing Particulars (the "Listing Particulars"). The Notes may be redeemed at
any time on or after January 15, 2020 at the redemption prices set forth in this Listing Particulars. At any time prior to
January 15, 2018, we may redeem up to 40% of each series of the Notes with the net proceeds of one or more specified
equity offerings at the redemption prices set forth in this Listing Particulars. Further, the Issuer may redeem all, but not less
than all, of the Notes at a price equal to their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest upon the occurrence of certain
changes in tax law. If the Issuer or certain of its subsidiaries sell certain of their assets or experience specific kinds of changes
in control, the Issuer must offer to repurchase the Notes. See "Description of the Notes" for more information.
The Notes are senior obligations of the Issuer and rank equally in right of payment with all existing and future
indebtedness of the Issuer that is not subordinated in right of payment of the Notes, including the Existing Senior Notes (as
defined herein), and are senior in right of payment to all existing and future indebtedness of the Issuer that is subordinated in
right of payment to the Notes. The Notes are guaranteed (the "Subsidiary Guarantees") on a senior subordinated basis by
Unitymedia Hessen GmbH & Co. KG ("Unitymedia Hessen"), Unitymedia Hessen Verwaltung GmbH ("Unitymedia
Verwaltung"), Unitymedia NRW GmbH ("Unitymedia NRW"), Unitymedia Management GmbH ("Unitymedia
Management"), UPC Germany NewCo GmbH ("UPC Germany NewCo") and Kabel BW GmbH ("KBW") (collectively,
the "Guarantors"). The Subsidiary Guarantees are senior subordinated obligations of the Guarantors and rank equally with
all other existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness of each Guarantor, including the guarantees of the Existing
Senior Notes, and are effectively subordinated to all existing and future senior indebtedness of the Guarantors, including the
Unitymedia KabelBW Revolving Credit Facilities, the Existing Senior Secured Notes and certain hedging obligations (in
each case, as defined herein). The Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees are structurally subordinated to any existing and
future indebtedness of the Issuer's subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes.
By no later than January 25, 2015 (such grant date, the "Collateral Grant Date"), the Notes will be secured by (i) a
pledge (the "Issuer Share Pledge") over the capital stock of the Issuer which, after giving effect to the Holdco Intercreditor
Agreement (as defined herein) and the Refinancing (as defined herein), will contractually rank equally and ratably with the
Existing Senior Notes, (ii) certain junior ranking pledges over the capital stock of Unitymedia Hessen, Unitymedia
Verwaltung and Unitymedia Management and (iii) certain domination and/or profit and loss absorption agreements by
Unitymedia Management, Unitymedia NRW and Unitymedia Verwaltung (such assets to be pledged, collectively, the
"Collateral"). The Collateral will also secure the Existing Senior Notes and, with the exception of the Issuer Share Pledge,
will also secure the Existing Senior Secured Notes, the Unitymedia KabelBW Revolving Credit Facilities, the Existing Senior
Secured Notes and certain hedging obligations. Prior to the Collateral Grant Date, the Notes will be unsecured. Pursuant to
the Group Intercreditor Agreement (as defined herein), the proceeds from any enforcement of Collateral provided by the
Guarantors will be applied to repay indebtedness outstanding under the Unitymedia KabelBW Revolving Credit Facilities,
the Existing Senior Secured Notes, certain hedging obligations and certain other future senior indebtedness of the Guarantors

as amended (the "U.S. Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. The Issuer is offering the Notes

persons outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act. For a description of
certain restrictions on the transfer of the Notes see "Plan of Distribution" and "Transfer Restrictions."
The Notes are in registered form in denominations of $200,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Notes are represented on issue by one or more global notes, which were delivered through The Depository Trust
Company ("DTC") and Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. ("Euroclear") and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme
("Clearstream"), as DTC participants, on or about October 22, 2014 (the "Issue Date"). Interests in the global notes will be
