INDIANAPOLIS, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Comcast announced the kickoff of construction of its next-generation network in Fayette, Rush, Delaware, Boone, Shelby, Morgan and Miami counties. Upon completion, more than 10,000 residents and businesses will have access to the full suite of Xfinity and Comcast Business services, including built-in cybersecurity, affordable Internet plans, and a robust video offering spanning TV and streaming.
The multi-million-dollar joint investment is the latest from Comcast in partnership with the State of Indiana's Next Level Connections Broadband Grant Program, which has invested $350 million toward improving broadband access and adoption in the state.
"We are working to ensure that every Hoosier has access to high-speed, reliable, affordable broadband," said Steve Cox, Indiana's Chief Broadband Officer. "Connecting every corner of our state will provide economic mobility and connect residents and businesses to a better quality of life. With this partnership, Comcast is helping us make that happen."
Overall, Comcast has invested more than $80 billion in the last 10 years to grow and evolve its expansive fiber-rich network across the company's service footprint nationwide, including nearly $600 million the company has invested in its network in Indiana over the last three years.
"Comcast is proud to continue its commitment to rural Hoosiers by kicking off construction work and ensuring even more homes have access to faster and more reliable Internet," said Joni Hart, vice president of Government Affairs for Comcast Indiana. "Through our network that delivers 99.9% reliability, residents can participate in services like e-learning, utilize healthcare online, and rely on broadband access in their communities."
Comcast's more than 49,000 miles of fiber-rich network infrastructure across Indiana allows the company to offer Internet speeds faster than a gigabit to residential and business customers in its service footprint. In addition, Comcast has more than 65,500 WiFi hotspots in Indiana and more than 23 million nationwide.
A Network You Can Trust to be Reliable, Fast and Secure
Comcast's state-of-the-art network is built to enable residents and businesses to thrive in today's constantly connected world. Additional homes in Fayette, Rush, Delaware, Boone, Shelby, Morgan and Miami counties join 64 million homes and businesses across the country to have access to a network that is trusted by essential community organizations like hospitals, schools, transportation systems and first responders. It delivers multi-gigabit Internet speeds, 99.9 percent reliability and security built in from the ground up to keep customers safe from cyber threats.
Introducing Xfinity for Consumers

What it Means for Residents
Comcast's commitment to communities goes beyond building the network and aims to increase economic mobility for the local community and its residents.

(3) The amount to be paid for each US$1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase. The Total Consideration includes the Early Tender Premium. In addition, Accrued Interest will be paid. The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on July 10, 2025 (such time and date, as it may be extended by the Issuer, the "Expiration Date"). Holders of Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on June 24, 2025 (such time and date, as it may be extended by the Issuer, the "Early Tender Date") and that are accepted for purchase will be eligible to receive the Total Consideration, which includes the Early Tender Premium, in each case as set forth in the table above, plus Accrued Interest. Holders of Notes that are validly tendered after the Early Tender Date and at or prior to the Expiration Date will only be eligible to receive the Tender Offer Consideration, which equals the Total Consideration less the Early Tender Premium, as set forth in the table above, plus Accrued Interest. Notes that have been validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer may be validly withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on June 24, 2025, but not thereafter except as may be required by applicable law (as determined by the Issuer). Settlement Assuming our acceptance of Notes tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer, Holders that have validly tendered and not validly withdrawn Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will, if we so elect, receive payment one business day following the Early Tender Date but before the Expiration Date (the "Early Settlement Date"). If we do not, in our sole discretion, elect to pay for such tendered Notes prior to the Expiration Date, then the Early Settlement Date will be the same as the Final Settlement Date. We will make payment for Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted by us for purchase on the settlement date that is expected to be two business days following the Expiration Date or as promptly as practicable thereafter (the "Final Settlement Date"), in any case up to the Maximum Tender Amount. Proration If the purchase of all Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date would cause us to accept for purchase an aggregate principal amount of Notes that exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, then the Tender Offer will be oversubscribed at the Early Tender Date and, assuming satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Tender Offer, we will purchase on, at our option, the Early Settlement Date or the Final Settlement Date Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase all Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date on a prorated basis according to the principal amount of such Notes, such that we purchase an aggregate principal amount of Notes that does not exceed the Maximum Tender Amount. If the Tender Offer is not oversubscribed at the Early Tender Date and the purchase of all Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date (when combined with all Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date) would cause us to accept for purchase an aggregate principal amount of Notes that exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, then the Tender Offer will be oversubscribed at the Expiration Date and, assuming satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the Tender Offer, we will purchase on the Final Settlement Date Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Expiration Date and accepted for purchase, as follows: first, to the extent there was no Early Settlement Date, all Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date; and second, all Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date, on a prorated basis according to the principal amount of such Notes, such that we purchase an aggregate principal amount of Notes that does not exceed the Maximum Tender Amount. All tendered Notes not accepted will be promptly credited to the Holder's account with DTC or otherwise returned to the Holder without cost. In the event that the amount of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) at or prior to the Early Tender Date would result in an aggregate principal amount that exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount and we elect to have an Early Settlement Date, then, subject to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date will not be eligible for purchase, unless the Maximum Tender Amount is increased. We reserve the right, but are under no obligation, to increase the Maximum Tender Amount at any time, subject to compliance with applicable law. Conditions to the Tender Offer Our obligation to purchase Notes in the Tender Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions, including the receipt by us of proceeds from a proposed debt financing on terms reasonably satisfactory to us, in our sole discretion and subject to applicable law, generating net proceeds in an amount that is sufficient to effect the repurchase of the Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer, including the payment of any premiums, Accrued Interest and costs and expenses incurred in connection therewith. The Tender Offer is not conditioned upon the tender of any minimum principal amount of Notes. However, the Tender Offer is subject to the Maximum Tender Amount. Other Information The Issuer has engaged Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC to act as dealer manager (the "Dealer Manager") in connection with the Tender Offer. In such capacity, the Dealer Manager may contact Holders regarding the Tender Offer and may request brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies and other nominees to forward the Offer to Purchase and related materials to beneficial owners of Notes.

The Tender Offer is not being made to, nor will the Issuer accept tenders of Notes from, Holders in any jurisdiction in which the Tender Offer would not be in compliance with the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdiction.
