<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">Moments ago, WOW! announced that our board of
directors, acting upon the recommendation of the special committee of independent directors established to evaluate the proposal from
DigitalBridge and Crestview, has approved an agreement to be taken private by investment funds affiliated with DigitalBridge and Crestview
Partners. This means, at the close of this transaction,&nbsp;WOW! will become a privately held company and our stock will no longer be
traded on the New York Stock Exchange.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">DigitalBridge&nbsp;is a global digital infrastructure
investment firm with expertise in connectivity and broadband; Crestview Partners&nbsp;is a private equity investment firm and significant
stakeholder in WOW! since 2015. Both companies see strong potential for our business and are excited about WOW!. I encourage you to read
the <U>news release</U>&nbsp;we issued moments ago.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">First, let me assure you, this is a story of investment
and growth, and provides us all with a lot of opportunities. This transaction is an important step toward fulfilling our vision for growth
and for evolving the business.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The decision to agree to this purchase came after
months of thoughtful consideration and negotiation by the special committee of the board and approval by WOW!&rsquo;s full board of directors.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">The final negotiated price, $5.20, represents
a premium over WOW!&rsquo;s recent trading price and is a positive outcome for stockholders, including employees granted shares through
WOW!&rsquo;s stock program.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-align: justify">We are confident this move is the right one for
WOW!. DigitalBridge and Crestview Partners view this acquisition as strategic to their growth and expansion. The transaction is expected
to close by the end of the year or in the first quarter of 2026, subject to the satisfaction of the closing conditions, including receipt
of stockholder approval and required regulatory approvals. Throughout this process, we have and will continue to carefully consider the
impacts on employees, customers and investors.</P>

this means for you and your role at WOW!. Although we don&rsquo;t have all the specifics at this early stage, please know I and the entire
WOW! leadership team will continue to communicate openly and as often as possible as this transaction unfolds. I encourage you to check

tremendously important to us.</P>

acquisition of WOW! by funds affiliated with DigitalBridge Investments and Crestview Partners (the &ldquo;Transaction&rdquo;), including
financial estimates and statements as to the expected timing, completion and effects of the Transaction. &nbsp;These forward-looking statements
represent our goals, beliefs, plans and expectations about our prospects for the future and other future events. Forward-looking statements
include all statements that are not historical fact and can be identified by terms such as &ldquo;may,&rdquo; &ldquo;intend,&rdquo; &ldquo;might,&rdquo;
 &ldquo;will,&rdquo; &ldquo;should,&rdquo; &ldquo;could,&rdquo; &ldquo;would,&rdquo; &ldquo;anticipate,&rdquo; &ldquo;expect,&rdquo; &ldquo;believe,&rdquo;

 &ldquo;likely,&rdquo; &ldquo;target&rdquo; or similar expressions or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology that
convey uncertainty of future events or outcomes. By their nature, forward-looking statements address matters that involve risks and uncertainties
because they relate to events and depend upon future circumstances that may or may not occur, such as the consummation of the Transaction
and the anticipated benefits thereof. These and other forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject
to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statements. Important risk factors that may cause such a difference include, but are not limited to: (i)&nbsp;the completion of the Transaction
on anticipated terms and timing or at all, including obtaining required stockholder and regulatory approvals, and the satisfaction of
other conditions to the completion of the Transaction; (ii)&nbsp;potential litigation relating to the Transaction that could be instituted
against DigitalBridge, Crestview, WOW! or their respective affiliates, directors, managers or officers, including the effects of any outcomes
related thereto; (iii)&nbsp;the risk that disruptions from the Transaction, including the diversion of management&rsquo;s attention from
WOW!&rsquo;s ongoing business operations, will harm WOW!&rsquo;s business, including current plans and operations; (iv)&nbsp;the ability
of WOW! to retain and hire key personnel in light of the Transaction; (v)&nbsp;potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships
resulting from the announcement or completion of the Transaction; (vi)&nbsp;potential business uncertainty, including changes to existing
business relationships, during the pendency of the Transaction that could affect WOW!&rsquo;s financial performance; (vii)&nbsp;certain
restrictions during the pendency of the Transaction that may impact WOW!&rsquo;s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic
transactions; (viii)&nbsp;significant transaction costs associated with the Transaction, including the possibility that the Transaction
may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; (ix)&nbsp;the occurrence of
any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Transaction, including in circumstances requiring
WOW! to pay a termination fee or other expenses; (x)&nbsp;the risk that WOW!&rsquo;s stock price may decline significantly if the Transaction
is not consummated; (xi)&nbsp;the risks and uncertainties pertaining to WOW!&rsquo;s business, including those set forth in Part&nbsp;I,&nbsp;Item
1A of WOW!&rsquo;s most recent Annual Report on Form&nbsp;10-K and Part&nbsp;II,&nbsp;Item 1A of WOW!&rsquo;s subsequent Quarterly Reports
on Form&nbsp;10-Q, as such risk factors may be amended, supplemented or superseded from time to time by other reports filed by WOW! with
the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (&ldquo;SEC&rdquo;); and (xii)&nbsp;the risks and uncertainties that will be described in
the proxy statement available from the sources indicated below. These risks, as well as other risks associated with the Transaction, will
be more fully discussed in the proxy statement. While the list of factors presented here is, and the list of factors to be presented in
the proxy statement will be, considered representative, no such list should be considered a complete statement of all potential risks
and uncertainties. Unlisted factors may present significant additional obstacles to the realization of forward-looking statements. Consequences
of material differences in results as compared with those anticipated in the forward-looking statements could include, among other things,
business disruption, operational problems, financial loss, legal liability to third parties and similar risks, any of which could have
a material impact on WOW!&rsquo;s financial condition, results of operations, credit rating or liquidity. In light of the significant
uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, WOW! cannot assure you that the forward-looking statements in this communication will
