ITC^DeltaCom, Inc. Withdraws Senior Secured Notes Offering

Huntsville, Ala, Feb. 10, 2010 — ITC^DeltaCom, Inc. (OTC: ITCD.OB) announced today that, in light of current market conditions, it is withdrawing its previously announced private offering of senior secured notes to institutional investors. “The proposed transaction was intended to opportunistically refinance our existing indebtedness with fixed rate senior secured notes,” commented Richard Fish, ITC^DeltaCom’s Chief Financial Officer. “When we initially embarked on this process, the anticipated cost of capital for the new senior secured notes was in the range of 9% to 9.5%. However, as a result of the significantly weaker market conditions that have occurred over the last several days, the pricing on the new senior secured notes would have increased by an additional 2% to 2.5%. Clearly, given that the company’s current cost of capital is approximately 5%, the operational flexibility that would have been provided by the new senior secured notes is significantly outweighed by the estimated new cost of capital. Accordingly, the proposed refinancing is unattractive at this time.”
