Description of Charter Communications
Long-Term Incentive Program

     The Long-Term Incentive Program “LTIP,” administered under the Charter
Communications, Inc. 2001 Stock Incentive Plan, offers two forms of long-term,
equity-based compensation – stock options and performance shares.

     Employees of Charter and its subsidiaries whose pay classifications exceed
a certain level are eligible to receive options to purchase shares of Class A
common stock of Charter Communications, Inc. Employees who are more senior are
eligible to receive stock options and performance shares.

     Employees eligible to receive performance shares receive awards of Charter
stock that are earned based on Charter’s performance against company performance
targets established by management and the Compensation Committee of Charter’s
Board of Directors. Performance is measured over a three-year period referred to
as a performance cycle. The number of performance shares an employee earns at
the end of a three-year performance cycle depends on Charter’s performance in
relation to the targets.

     Financial Performance measures will be calculated over a three-year period,
based on Revenue Growth and Unlevered Free Cash Flow. Revenue Growth is the
annual compound growth in our audited revenues excluding franchise fees.
Unlevered Free Cash Flow Growth is the annual compound growth in our Free Cash
Flow excluding the effects of our debt and equity capital structure. This is
calculated as Charter’s total revenues minus operating, selling, and general and
administrative expenses less capital expenditures.
