           Multicanal S.A. Announces Additional Support From Creditors


BUENOS AIRES, September 4, 2003 - Multicanal S.A. (the "Company") today
announced that it has received the commitment of additional bank creditors
holding in the aggregate U.S.$17 million of its Existing Debt (as defined
below), to participate in its acuerdo preventivo extrajudicial ("APE") pursuant
to which the Company is seeking to restructure its outstanding indebtedness,
bringing the total commitment to date by principal bank creditors to U.S.$80.5
million. The Company has previously announced its solicitation (the "APE
Solicitation") from holders of its 9 1/4% Notes due 2002, 10 1/2% Notes due
2007, 13.125% Series E Notes due 2009, Series C 10 1/2% Notes due 2018 and
Series J Floating Rate Notes due 2003 (together, the "Existing Notes"), and
other financial indebtedness (the "Bank Debt" and together with the Existing
Notes, the "Existing Debt") of powers of attorney in favor of an
attorney-in-fact, to execute an APE.

The Company welcomes the support of these bank creditors for its APE. The bank
creditors have agreed to (i) cast their votes confirming the APE at one or more
bondholder meetings to be convened for that purpose, and (ii) execute the APE
promptly after the Company executes the APE. The support is subject to certain
termination events, including that the Bankruptcy Court has not on or prior to
September 30, 2003 scheduled a bondholder meeting convened for the purpose of
confirming the APE under Argentine law.

The Company announced certain amendments to the terms of the APE Solicitation
and the Cash Option Solicitation on July 25, 2003. In order to participate in
the APE Solicitation or the Cash Option Solicitation, a holder of Existing Debt
must execute and deliver the letter of transmittal that was included with the
Second Supplement to Solicitation Statement related to the APE Solicitation or
the Cash Option Solicitation Statement related to the Cash Option Solicitation,
each dated July 25, 2003. A HOLDER OF EXISTING DEBT WISHING TO PARTICIPATE IN
THE APE SOLICITATION OR CASH OPTION SOLICITATION MUST EXECUTE AND DELIVER A NEW
LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH HOLDER HAS ALREADY EXECUTED A
LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL ON OR PRIOR TO JULY 25, 2003 IN RESPECT OF THE APE
SOLICITATION OR DELIVERED ITS EXISTING NOTES INTO THE COMPANY'S OFFER TO
PURCHASE FOR CASH DATED JANUARY 31, 2003, AS AMENDED ON MARCH 26, 2003, AS THE
CASE MAY BE. If any such holder of Existing Debt does not complete a new letter
of transmittal, the Existing Debt held by such holder shall be deemed not to
have been tendered into the APE Solicitation or the Cash Option Solicitation, as
the case may be.

Holders of Existing Debt willing to participate in the APE Solicitation or Cash
Option Solicitation must contact the Exchange Agent or Depositary, as the case
may be, to ensure that all required documentation has been duly executed and
delivered. The failure by a holder of Existing Debt to provide all necessary
documentation in a timely manner to the Exchange Agent or Depositary, as the
case may be, may result in the exclusion of such holder's Existing Debt from the
APE Solicitation and Cash Option Solicitation.

                                      * * *


The Information Agent for both the Cash Option Solicitation and the APE
Solicitation is D.F. King & Co., Inc. and its telephone number is (212)
493-6920. The Depositary for the Cash Option Solicitation and the Exchange Agent
for the APE Solicitation is JPMorgan Chase Bank and its telephone number is
(212) 623-5162.

THIS PRESS RELEASE IS NOT AN OFFER FOR SALE OF THE SECURITIES IN THE UNITED
STATES OR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH OFFER IS PROHIBITED, AND NEITHER
THE APE NOR ANY OF THE SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED PURSUANT TO THE APE, IF APPROVED,
MAY BE SOLD IN THE UNITED STATES ABSENT REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION FROM
REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR IN ANY OTHER
JURISDICTION WHERE SUCH SALE IS PROHIBITED. THE COMPANY DOES NOT INTEND TO

IN ANY JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THOSE AS IT MAY FROM TIME TO TIME PUBLISH.
