	Cogent Announces IPv4 Address Securitization Offering

	WASHINGTON, D.C. April 25, 2024 — Cogent Communications Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:
	CCOI) (the “Company” or “Cogent”) yesterday announced that a special-purpose,
	bankruptcy remote, indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Company has priced
	$206,000,000 aggregate principal amount of secured Internet Protocol version 4
	(“IPv4”) address revenue term notes, Series 2024-1 (collectively, the “Notes”).
	The Notes will have an anticipated repayment term of five years. The Notes will
	be secured by certain of Cogent’s IPv4 addresses, customer IPv4 address leases
	and customer accounts receivables.

	Cogent intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate
	purposes.

	Cogent expects the Notes transaction to close on or around May 2, 2024, subject
	to satisfaction of various closing conditions. There can be no assurance
	regarding the timing of closing or that the issuance and sale of the Notes will
	be consummated.
