OVERVIEW
TWC is among the largest providers of video, high-speed data and voice services, with
technologically advanced, well-clustered cable systems located mainly in five geographic areas
New York State (including New York City), the Carolinas, Ohio, Southern California (including Los
Angeles) and Texas. As of June 30, 2011, TWC served approximately 14.5 million residential and
business services customers who subscribed to one or more of its three primary services, totaling
approximately 26.9 million primary service units.
TWC offers its residential and business services customers video, high-speed data and voice
services over its broadband cable systems. TWCs business services also include networking and
transport services and, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, NaviSite, Inc. (NaviSite) (discussed
further in Recent Developments), enterprise-class hosting, managed application, messaging and
cloud services. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, TWC generated revenues of approximately
$8.6 billion and $673 million from the provision of residential and business services,
respectively. TWC also sells advertising to a variety of national, regional and local advertising
customers, resulting in advertising revenues of $422 million during the six months ended June 30,
2011. TWC also generated revenues from other sources of $117 million during the six months ended
June 30, 2011.
As of June 30, 2011, TWC had approximately 12.1 million residential services video
subscribers, 9.7 million residential services high-speed data subscribers and 4.5 million
residential services voice subscribers, as well as approximately 168,000 business services video
subscribers, 359,000 business services high-speed data subscribers and 136,000 business services
voice subscribers. Of the Companys total video subscribers, as of June 30, 2011, 73.9% received
digital video signals. TWC markets its services separately and in bundled packages of multiple
services and features. As of June 30, 2011, 60.0% of TWCs customers subscribed to two or more of
its primary services, including 26.3% of its customers who subscribed to all three primary
services.
TWC believes it will continue to increase residential services revenues for the foreseeable
future through growth in residential services high-speed data and voice subscribers, price
increases, the offering of incremental video services (e.g., digital video recorder (DVR) service
and additional programming tiers) and an increase in video equipment rentals, partially offset by a
decline in residential services video subscribers. Additionally, TWC believes it will continue to
increase
1
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
its revenues from business services customers for the foreseeable future through growth in
business services subscribers, price increases, an increase in wholesale transport revenues and the
offering of incremental services to business services customers, including the managed services
offered by NaviSite. However, future growth rates for both residential and business services
revenues will depend on the Companys ability to retain and attract subscribers and increase
pricing, which can be impacted by competition, the state of the economy and regulation.
TWCs operations have been affected by the challenging economic environment. The Company
believes that trends in new home formation, housing vacancy rates, unemployment rates and consumer
spending levels have negatively affected its residential services financial and subscriber growth.
TWC faces intense competition for residential services customers from a variety of alternative
communications, information and entertainment delivery sources. TWC competes with incumbent local
telephone companies, including AT&T Inc. and Verizon Communications Inc., across each of its
primary residential services. Some of these telephone companies offer a broad range of services
with features and functions comparable to those provided by TWC and in bundles similar to those
offered by TWC, sometimes including wireless service. Each of TWCs residential services also
faces competition from other companies that provide services on a stand-alone basis. TWCs
residential video service faces competition from direct broadcast satellite services, and
increasingly from companies that deliver content to consumers over the Internet. TWCs residential
high-speed data service faces competition from wireless internet providers, and competition in
residential voice service is increasing as more homes in the U.S. are replacing their wireline
telephone service with wireless service, over-the-top phone service or other alternatives.
TWC
also competes with incumbent local exchange carriers, or
ILECs, and competitive local exchange carriers, or CLECs, across each of its business high-speed data,
networking and voice services. TWCs business video service faces competition from direct broadcast
satellite providers. TWCs cell tower backhaul service also faces
competition from ILECs and CLECs, as well
as other carriers, such as metro and regional fiber providers. Technological advances and product innovations have increased and
will likely continue to increase the number of alternatives available to TWCs residential and
business services customers and potential customers, further intensifying competition. The Company
believes the more competitive environment has negatively affected its financial and subscriber
growth.
TWC faces intense competition in its advertising business across many different platforms and
from a wide range of local and national competitors. Competition has increased and will likely
continue to increase as new formats for advertising seek to attract the same advertisers.
Depending on the advertiser in question, TWC competes for advertising revenues against, among
others, local broadcast stations, national cable and broadcast networks, radio, newspapers,
magazines and outdoor advertisers, as well as Internet companies, both those that operate
nationally and those seeking to expand into local media.
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, video programming and employee costs represented 35.1%
and 32.5%, respectively, of the Companys total operating expenses. Video programming costs are
expected to continue to increase, reflecting rate increases on existing programming services,
increased costs associated with retransmission consent agreements, growth in video subscribers
taking tiers of service with more channels and the expansion of service offerings (e.g., new
network channels). TWC expects that its video programming costs as a percentage of video revenues
will continue to increase as the rate of growth in programming costs outpaces the rate of growth in
video revenues. Additionally, the more competitive environment discussed above may increase TWCs
cost to obtain certain video programming. Employee costs are also expected to continue to increase
as a result of many factors, including higher compensation expenses and headcount, reflecting the
Companys investment in its business services and other areas of growth.
Recent Developments
Cable System Acquisition
In June 2011, TWC entered into an agreement with NewWave Communications to acquire certain
cable systems in Kentucky and western Tennessee serving roughly 130,000 primary service units for
approximately $260 million in cash. The transaction, which is subject to certain regulatory
approvals and customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2011.

2011 Bond Offering
On May 26, 2011, TWC issued £625 million (approximately $1.0 billion) in aggregate principal
amount of 5.750% senior unsecured notes due 2031 in a public offering under a shelf registration
statement on Form S-3 (the 2011 Bond Offering). TWCs obligations under the notes issued in the
2011 Bond Offering are guaranteed by its subsidiaries, Time Warner Entertainment Company, L.P.
(TWE) and TW NY Cable Holding Inc. The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the 2011
Bond Offering for general corporate purposes. As described further in Note 6, the Company has
entered into cross-currency swap arrangements to convert its fixed-rate British pound sterling
denominated debt, including annual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity, to
fixed-rate U.S. dollar denominated debt. Additionally, see Note 5 to the accompanying consolidated
financial statements for further details regarding the notes issued in the 2011 Bond Offering.
NaviSite Acquisition
On April 21, 2011, TWC completed its acquisition of NaviSite for $263 million, net of cash
acquired. At closing, TWC also repaid $44 million of NaviSites debt. NaviSites financial results
have been included in the Companys consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date.
See Note 4 to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information on the
NaviSite acquisition.
Common Stock Repurchase Program
On October 29, 2010, TWCs Board of Directors authorized a $4.0 billion common stock
repurchase program (the Stock Repurchase Program). Purchases under the Stock Repurchase Program
may be made from time to time on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions. The size
and timing of the Companys purchases under the Stock Repurchase Program are based on a number of
factors, including price and business and market conditions. From the inception of the Stock
Repurchase Program through July 26, 2011, the Company repurchased 34.8 million shares of TWC
common stock for $2.462 billion. As of July 26, 2011, the Company had
$1.538 billion
remaining under the Stock Repurchase Program.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
Revenues
During the second quarter of 2011, the Company revised its presentation of revenues to provide
additional detail about the Companys sources of revenues, which had no impact on total revenues
for any period presented. The Companys revenues consist of residential services, business
services, advertising and other revenues.
Residential services. Residential services revenues consist of revenues from the following
residential services:
Video. Video revenues include residential services subscriber fees for the Companys three
main levels or tiers of video programming serviceBasic Service Tier (BST), Expanded Basic
Service Tier (or Cable Programming Service Tier) (CPST) and Digital Basic Service Tier (DBT),
as well as fees for genre-based programming tiers, such as movie, sports and Spanish-language
tiers. Video revenues also include related equipment rental charges, installation charges and fees
collected on behalf of local franchising authorities and the Federal Communications Commission (the
FCC). Additionally, video revenues include revenues from premium channels, transactional
video-on-demand (e.g., events and movies) and DVR service.
High-speed data. High-speed data revenues primarily include residential services subscriber
fees for the Companys high-speed data and mobile high-speed data services, along with related home
networking fees and installation charges. The Company offers multiple tiers of high-speed data
services providing various service speeds to meet the different needs of its subscribers, including
Turbo, Standard, Basic and Lite tiers in all of its service areas and Wideband, Extreme and Turbo
Plus in a number of its service areas. In addition, high-speed data revenues include fees received
from third-party internet service providers (e.g., Earthlink) whose on-line services are provided
to some of TWCs customers.

OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
Voice. Voice revenues include subscriber fees from residential services voice subscribers,
along with related installation charges, as well as fees collected on behalf of governmental
authorities.
Other. Other revenues include revenues from home monitoring and security services and other
residential services subscriber-related fees.
Business services. Business services revenues consist of revenues from the following business
services:
Video. Video revenues include the same categories described above under residential services
video revenues for fees received from business services video subscribers.
High-speed data. High-speed data revenues primarily include business services subscriber fees
for the Companys high-speed data service, along with related business services networking fees and
installation charges. High-speed data revenues also include amounts generated by the sale of
commercial networking and point-to-point transport services, such as Metro Ethernet services.
Voice. Voice revenues include subscriber fees from business services voice subscribers, along
with related installation charges, as well as fees collected on behalf of governmental authorities.
Wholesale transport. Wholesale transport revenues primarily include amounts generated by the
sale of point-to-point transport services offered to wireless telephone providers (i.e., cell tower
backhaul) and competitive carriers.
Other. Other revenues primarily include revenues from enterprise-class hosting, managed
application, messaging and cloud services provided by NaviSite, revenues from business monitoring
and security services and other business services subscriber-related revenues.
Advertising. Advertising revenues include the fees charged to local, regional and national
advertising customers for advertising placed on the Companys video and high-speed data services,
as well as revenues from advertising inventory sold on behalf of other video distributors.
Currently, most advertising revenues are derived from advertising placed on video services, but the
Company expects a growing percentage of advertising revenues will be derived from digital products
in the future.
Other. Other revenues primarily include (a) fees paid to TWC by (i) the Advance/Newhouse
Partnership for the ability to distribute TWCs Road Runner® high-speed data
service (Road Runner) and TWCs management of certain functions for the Advance/Newhouse
Partnership, including, among others, programming and engineering, and (ii) other distributors of
Road Runner, and (b) commissions earned on the sale of merchandise by home shopping networks.
Costs and Expenses
Costs of revenues include the following costs directly associated with the delivery of
services to subscribers or the maintenance of the Companys delivery systems: video programming
costs; high-speed data connectivity costs (including mobile high-speed data service costs); voice
network costs; other service-related expenses, including non-administrative labor; franchise fees;
and other related costs.
Selling, general and administrative expenses include amounts not directly associated with the
delivery of services to subscribers or the maintenance of the Companys delivery systems, such as
administrative labor costs, marketing expenses, bad debt expense, billing system charges, non-plant
repair and maintenance costs and other administrative overhead costs.

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
Use of Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization and Free Cash Flow
In discussing its performance, the Company may use certain measures that are not calculated
and presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These
measures include OIBDA and Free Cash Flow, which the Company defines as follows:
|
|
|
OIBDA (Operating Income before Depreciation and Amortization) means Operating Income
before depreciation of tangible assets and amortization of intangible assets. |
|
|
|
|
Free Cash Flow means cash provided by operating activities (as defined under GAAP)
excluding the impact, if any, of cash provided or used by discontinued operations, plus any
excess tax benefit from equity-based compensation, less (i) capital expenditures, (ii) cash
paid for other intangible assets (excluding those associated with business combinations),
(iii) partnership distributions to third parties and (iv) principal payments on capital
leases. |
Management uses OIBDA, among other measures, in evaluating the performance of the Companys
business because it eliminates the effects of (1) considerable amounts of noncash depreciation and
amortization and (2) items not within the control of the Companys operations managers (such as net
income attributable to noncontrolling interests, income tax provision, other income (expense), net,
and interest expense, net). Management believes that Free Cash Flow is an important indicator of
the Companys liquidity after the payment of cash taxes, interest and other cash items, including
its ability to reduce net debt, pay dividends, repurchase common stock and make strategic
investments. Performance measures derived from OIBDA are also used in the Companys annual
incentive compensation programs. In addition, both of these measures are commonly used by analysts,
investors and others in evaluating the Companys performance and liquidity.
These measures have inherent limitations. For example, OIBDA does not reflect capital
expenditures or the periodic costs of certain capitalized assets used in generating revenues. To
compensate for such limitations, management evaluates performance through, among other measures,
Free Cash Flow, which reflects capital expenditure decisions, and net income attributable to TWC
shareholders, which reflects the periodic costs of capitalized assets. OIBDA also fails to reflect
the significant costs borne by the Company for income taxes and debt servicing costs, the share of
OIBDA attributable to noncontrolling interests, the results of the Companys equity investments and
other non-operational income or expense. Management compensates for these limitations by using
other analytics such as a review of net income attributable to TWC shareholders. Free Cash Flow, a
liquidity measure, does not reflect payments made in connection with investments and acquisitions,
which reduce liquidity. To compensate for this limitation, management evaluates such investments
and acquisitions through other measures such as return on investment analyses.
These non-GAAP measures should be considered in addition to, not as substitutes for, the
Companys Operating Income, net income attributable to TWC shareholders and various cash flow
measures (e.g., cash provided by operating activities), as well as other measures of financial
performance and liquidity reported in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to similarly
titled measures used by other companies.
Basis of Presentation
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial information to conform to
the current year presentation, primarily including, as previously noted, the revised presentation
of the Companys revenues during the second quarter of 2011. This reclassification had no impact
on the Companys total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. Additionally, the
Company reclassified certain sales-related customer care costs from costs of revenues to selling,
general and administrative expenses. This reclassification had no impact on the Companys
Operating Income or net income attributable to TWC shareholders for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2010.

Video subscriber numbers reflect billable subscribers who receive at least the BST
video programming tier. The determination of whether a video subscriber is categorized as
residential or business services is based on the type of subscriber receiving the service. |
(b) |
|
During the second quarter of 2011, the Company acquired cable systems,
resulting in an increase of 6,000 residential services video subscribers, 3,000 residential
services high-speed data subscribers, 9,000 residential services and total primary service
units, 6,000 customer relationships and 3,000 double play subscribers. The acquired
subscribers are reflected in the Companys subscriber numbers as of June 30, 2011. |

For
the three months ended June 30, 2011, residential services video revenues were
essentially flat compared to the second quarter of 2010 primarily as a decrease in video
subscribers was offset by increases in average revenues per subscriber. For the six months ended
June 30, 2011, residential services video revenues increased compared to 2010 primarily due to
increases in average revenues per subscriber, partially offset by a decrease in video subscribers.
For both periods, the increase in average revenues per subscriber was primarily due to price
increases, a greater percentage of subscribers receiving higher-priced tiers of service and
increased revenues from equipment rental and installation charges and DVR service, partially offset
by decreases in transactional video-on-demand and premium channel revenues. The major components
of residential services video revenues were as follows (in millions):

Residential services high-speed data revenues increased primarily due to growth in
high-speed data subscribers and increases in average revenues per subscriber (due to both price
increases and a greater percentage of subscribers receiving higher-priced tiers of service).
The increase in residential services voice revenues was due to growth in voice subscribers.

Business services revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 increased
primarily due to growth in voice and high-speed data subscribers, increased cell tower backhaul
revenues and the acquisition of NaviSite in the second quarter of 2011. NaviSites revenues (which
are included in other business services revenues) from the date of acquisition (April 21, 2011)
through June 30, 2011 were $26 million.
Advertising revenues. Advertising revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011
increased primarily due to growth in lower margin revenues from advertising inventory sold on
behalf of other video distributors (advertising rep agreements), partially offset by a decline in
political advertising revenues. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, advertising revenue growth
was also impacted by higher revenues from regional and local and, to a lesser extent, national
businesses. The Company expects that advertising revenues will increase in 2011 compared to 2010,
despite a significant decrease in political advertising revenues in the second half of 2011.
Costs of revenues. The major components of costs of revenues were as follows (in millions,

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
Costs of revenues increased 4.2% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2011
primarily related to increases in video programming, employee, high-speed data and other costs,
partially offset by a decrease in voice costs.
The increase in video programming costs was primarily due to contractual rate increases and
increased costs associated with retransmission of certain local broadcast stations, partially
offset by a decline in video subscribers. Additionally, video programming costs for the six months
ended June 30, 2011 included a benefit of approximately $18 million due to changes in cost
estimates for programming services previously carried without a contract. The Company expects the
rate of growth in video programming costs per video subscriber in 2011 to be comparable to that of
2010.
Employee costs increased primarily as a result of higher headcount and compensation.
High-speed data costs consist of the direct costs associated with the delivery of high-speed
data and mobile high-speed data services, including network connectivity costs. High-speed data
costs increased primarily due to an increase in mobile high-speed data subscribers as a result of
the continued deployment of this service.
Voice costs consist of the direct costs associated with the delivery of voice services,
including network connectivity costs. Voice costs declined primarily due to a decrease in delivery
costs per subscriber as a result of the ongoing replacement of a third-party service provider of
voice transport, switching and interconnection services, partially offset by growth in voice
subscribers. This replacement process began in the fourth quarter of 2010 and is expected to
continue through the first quarter of 2014. As a result, the Company expects average voice costs
per voice subscriber to continue to decrease in the second half of 2011.
Other direct operating costs increased as a result of increases in a number of categories,
including costs associated with advertising rep agreements and fuel expense.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. The components of selling, general and

allowance for doubtful accounts and collection expenses, net of late fees billed to
subscribers. Late fees billed to subscribers were $34 million and $69 million for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and $34 million and $67 million for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. |
(b) |

As a result of the Companys separation (the Separation) from Time Warner Inc.
(Time Warner) on March 12, 2009, pursuant to their terms, Time Warner equity awards held by
TWC employees were forfeited and/or experienced a reduction in value as of the date of the
Separation. Amounts represent the costs associated with TWC stock options and restricted stock
units (RSUs) granted to TWC employees during the second quarter of 2009 to offset these
forfeitures and/or reduced values (Separation-related make-up equity award costs). |
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased primarily as a result of increases
in employee costs (primarily due to higher headcount and compensation) and consulting and
professional fees.
Merger-related and restructuring costs. During the second quarter of 2011, the Company
incurred $4 million of merger-related costs in connection with the acquisition of NaviSite.
Additionally, the Company incurred restructuring costs of $5 million and $11 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively,
compared to $20 million and $31 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010,
respectively. These restructuring costs were primarily related to headcount reductions of
approximately 160 and 350 during the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and

OIBDA. OIBDA increased principally as a result of revenue growth, partially offset by
higher costs of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses, as discussed above.
Included within OIBDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are NaviSite revenues of $26
million and operating expenses of $19 million.
The Company expects to incur start up losses of approximately $75 million during 2011 in
connection with the continuing deployment of mobile high-speed data service and other new services,
such as advanced home monitoring and security services, of which approximately $15 million and $30
million were incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. The
results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 included start up losses of approximately
$10 million and $15 million, respectively, in connection with the deployment of mobile high-speed
data service.
Amortization. The decrease in amortization expense was primarily due to (a) approximately $880
million of customer relationships acquired in the July 31, 2006 transactions with Adelphia
Communications Corporation and Comcast Corporation that were fully amortized as of July 31, 2010
and (b) approximately $70 million of customer relationships that the Company acquired as a result
of the 2007 dissolution of Texas and Kansas City Cable Partners, L.P. that were fully amortized as
of December 31, 2010.
Operating Income. Operating Income increased primarily due to the increase in OIBDA and the
decrease in amortization expense, as discussed above.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net, increased primarily due to higher average debt
outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to 2010 as a result of
the public debt issuances in November 2010 and the 2011 Bond Offering, partially offset by benefits
received from interest rate swaps.

Income tax provision. For the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company
recorded income tax provisions of $244 million and $217 million, respectively. For the six months
ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded income tax provisions of $500 million and $490
million, respectively. The effective tax rates were 36.7% and 38.8% for the three months ended
June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 40.1% and 46.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2011
and 2010, respectively. The income tax provisions and the effective tax rates for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2011 included a benefit of $15 million (including $9 million related to 2010)
from the domestic production activities deduction under Section 199 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended. Additionally, the income tax provisions and the effective tax rates for the
three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were impacted by the reversal of deferred income
tax assets associated with Time Warner stock option awards held by TWC employees, net of excess tax
benefits realized upon the exercise of TWC stock options or vesting of TWC RSUs, as follows (in

As a result of the Separation, on March 12, 2009, TWC employees who held stock option awards
under Time Warner equity plans were treated as if their employment with Time Warner had been
terminated without cause. In most cases, this treatment resulted in shortened exercise periods for
vested awards, generally one year from the date of the Separation; however, certain awards expire
over a five-year period from the date of the Separation. Deferred income tax assets were
established based on the Time Warner awards fair values, and a corresponding benefit to the
Companys income tax provision was recognized over the awards service periods. For unexercised
awards that expired out of the money, the fair value was $0 and the Company received no tax
deduction in connection with these awards. As a result, the previously-recognized deferred income
tax assets were written off through noncash charges to income tax expense during the periods in
which the awards expired. As noted above, the charges were reduced by excess tax benefits
realized upon the exercise of TWC stock options or vesting of TWC RSUs in the same year in which
the charge was taken.
Absent the impacts of the above items, the effective tax rates would have been 40.2% and 39.2%
for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 40.3% and 40.1% for the six
months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Net income attributable to TWC shareholders and net income per common share attributable to
TWC common shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 increased primarily due to
an increase in Operating Income, which was partially offset by increases in interest expense, net,
and other expense, net, and, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, an increase in income tax
expense, net, each as discussed above. Net income per common share attributable to TWC common
shareholders for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 also benefited from lower average
common shares outstanding as a result of share repurchases under the Stock Repurchase Program.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
Management believes that cash generated by or available to TWC should be sufficient to fund
its capital and liquidity needs for the next twelve months and for the foreseeable future
thereafter, including quarterly dividend payments, common stock repurchases and maturities of
long-term debt. TWCs sources of cash include cash and equivalents on hand, cash provided by
operating activities, borrowing capacity under its committed credit facility and commercial paper
program, as well as access to capital markets.
The Company generally invests its cash and equivalents in a combination of money market,
government and treasury funds, as well as other similar instruments, in accordance with the
Companys investment policy of diversifying its investments and limiting the amount of its
investments in a single entity or fund. As of June 30, 2011, nearly all of the Companys cash and
equivalents was invested in money market funds and income earning bank deposits, including
certificates of deposit, with no more than 15% invested in any one fund or deposit.
TWCs unused committed financial capacity was $7.366 billion as of June 30, 2011, reflecting
$3.510 billion of cash and equivalents and $3.856 billion of available borrowing capacity under the
Companys $4.0 billion senior unsecured three-year revolving credit facility (the Revolving Credit
Facility).
Current Financial Condition
As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $24.183 billion of debt, $3.510 billion of cash and
equivalents (net debt of $20.673 billion, defined as total debt less cash and equivalents), $300
million of mandatorily redeemable non-voting Series A Preferred Equity Membership Units (the TW NY
Cable Preferred Membership Units) issued by a subsidiary of TWC, Time Warner NY Cable LLC (TW NY
Cable), and $8.041 billion of total TWC shareholders equity. As of December 31, 2010, the Company
had $23.121 billion of debt, $3.047 billion of cash and equivalents (net debt of $20.074 billion),
$300 million of TW NY Cable Preferred Membership Units and $9.210 billion of total TWC
shareholders equity.

On April 28, 2011, TWC filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) that allows TWC to offer and sell from time to time
a variety of securities.
On July 21, 2011, the Companys Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.48
per share of TWC common stock, payable in cash on September 15, 2011 to stockholders of record at
the close of business on August 31, 2011.
From the inception of the Stock Repurchase Program through July 26, 2011, the Company
repurchased 34.8 million shares of TWC common stock for $2.462 billion. As of July 26, 2011,
the Company had $1.538 billion remaining under the Stock Repurchase Program.
As previously discussed, in June 2011, TWC entered into an agreement with NewWave
Communications to acquire certain cable systems in Kentucky and western Tennessee for approximately
$260 million in cash. The transaction, which is subject to certain regulatory approvals and
customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2011. See Note 4 to
the accompanying consolidated financial statements for additional information on this acquisition.
Cash Flows

MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
Cash provided by operating activities increased from $2.692 billion for the six months ended
June 30, 2010 to $3.080 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This increase was
primarily related to increases in net income tax refunds and OIBDA, partially offset by a change in
working capital requirements and an increase in net interest payments.
On September 27, 2010, the Small Business Jobs Act was enacted, which provided for a bonus
depreciation deduction of 50% of the cost of the Companys qualified capital expenditures
retroactive to the beginning of 2010. Additionally, on December 17, 2010, the Tax Relief,
Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization and Job Creation Act of 2010 was enacted, which provides for
a bonus depreciation deduction of 100% of the cost of the Companys qualified capital expenditures
from September 8, 2010 through December 31, 2011. As a result of these Acts, the Company received
an income tax refund of $270 million in the first quarter of 2011. Due to this refund and the
benefit of 100% bonus depreciation through December 31, 2011, the Company does not expect to pay
significant net income taxes in 2011.
Net interest payments increased primarily as a result of interest payments related to the
public debt issuances in December 2009 and November 2010. The Company expects that its net interest
payments will increase in 2011 compared to 2010 primarily as a result of interest payments related
to these public debt issuances, partially offset by an increase in amounts received under interest
rate swaps.
The Company may make discretionary cash contributions to its pension plans during the second

Cash used by investing activities increased from $1.457 billion for the six months ended
June 30, 2010 to $1.648 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This increase was
principally due to the acquisition of NaviSite in the second quarter of 2011, partially offset by a
decline in capital expenditures. The Company expects that capital expenditures will be less than
$3.0 billion in 2011.

(a) |
|
Amounts represent costs incurred in the purchase and installation of equipment that
resides at a customers home or business for the purpose of receiving/sending video,
high-speed data and/or voice signals. Such equipment includes set-top boxes, remote controls,
high-speed data modems (including wireless), telephone modems and the costs of installing such
new equipment. Customer premise equipment also includes materials and labor costs incurred to
install the drop cable that connects a customers dwelling or business to the closest point
of the main distribution network. |
(b) |
|
Amounts represent costs incurred in the purchase and installation of equipment that
controls signal reception, processing and transmission throughout TWCs distribution network,
as well as controls and communicates with the equipment residing at a customers home or
business. Also included in scalable infrastructure is certain equipment necessary for content
aggregation and distribution (video-on-demand equipment) and equipment necessary to provide
certain video, high-speed data and voice service features (voicemail, e-mail, etc.). |
(c) |
|
Amounts represent costs incurred to extend TWCs distribution network into a
geographic area previously not served. These costs typically include network design, the
purchase and installation of fiber optic and coaxial cable and certain electronic equipment. |
(d) |
|
Amounts primarily represent costs incurred to upgrade or replace certain existing
components or an entire geographic area of TWCs distribution network. These costs typically
include network design, the purchase and installation of fiber optic and coaxial cable and
certain electronic equipment. |
(e) |
|
Amounts represent all other capital purchases required to run day-to-day operations.
These costs typically include vehicles, land and buildings, computer hardware/software, office
equipment, furniture and fixtures, tools and test equipment. Amounts include capitalized
software costs of $137 million and $85 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and
2010, respectively. |
TWC incurs expenditures associated with the construction of its cable systems. Costs
associated with the construction of transmission and distribution facilities are capitalized. TWC
generally capitalizes expenditures for tangible fixed assets having a useful life of greater than
one year. Capitalized costs include direct material, labor and overhead, as well as interest. Sales
and marketing costs, as well as the costs of repairing or maintaining existing fixed assets, are
expensed as incurred. With respect to customer premise equipment, which includes set-top boxes and
high-speed data and telephone modems, TWC capitalizes installation costs only upon the initial
deployment of these assets. All costs incurred in subsequent disconnects and reconnects of
previously installed customer premise equipment are expensed as incurred. Depreciation on these
assets is provided using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives. For set-top
boxes and modems, the useful life is 3 to 5 years, and, for distribution plant, the useful life is
up to 16 years.

Cash used by financing activities decreased from $1.469 billion for the six months ended
June 30, 2010 to $969 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Cash used by financing
activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily consisted of repurchases of TWC common
stock and the payment of quarterly cash dividends, partially offset by the net proceeds from the
2011 Bond Offering. Cash used by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010
primarily included net repayments under the Companys commercial paper program and the payment of
quarterly cash dividends.

(c) |
|
Outstanding balance of TWE notes and debentures as of June 30, 2011 and December 31,
2010 includes an unamortized fair value adjustment of $84 million and $91 million,
respectively, primarily consisting of the fair value adjustment recognized as a result of the
2001 merger of America Online, Inc. (now known as AOL Inc.) and Time Warner Inc. (now known as
Historic TW Inc.). |
(d) |
|
TWCs unused committed financial capacity was $7.366 billion as of June 30, 2011,
reflecting $3.510 billion of cash and equivalents and $3.856 billion of available borrowing
capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility (which reflects a reduction of $144 million for
outstanding letters of credit backed by the Revolving Credit Facility). |
(e) |
|
Outstanding balance of total debt includes $261 million of current maturities of
long-term debt as of June 30, 2011 (none as of December 31, 2010). |
See OverviewRecent Developments2011 Bond Offering, Note 5 to the accompanying
consolidated financial statements and the 2010 Form 10-K for further details regarding the
Companys outstanding debt and mandatorily redeemable preferred equity and other financing
arrangements, including certain information about maturities, covenants and rating triggers related
to such debt and financing arrangements. As of June 30, 2011, TWC was in compliance with the
leverage ratio covenant of the Revolving Credit Facility, with a ratio of consolidated total debt
as of June 30, 2011 to consolidated EBITDA for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 of
approximately 2.9 times. In accordance with the Revolving Credit Facility agreement, consolidated
total debt as of June 30, 2011 was calculated as (a) total debt per the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet less the TWE unamortized fair value adjustment (discussed above) and the fair value
of debt subject to interest rate swaps, less (b) total cash per the accompanying consolidated
balance sheet in excess of $25 million. In accordance with the Revolving Credit Facility
agreement, consolidated EBITDA for the twelve months ended June 30, 2011 was calculated as OIBDA
plus equity-based compensation expense.
CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This document contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, particularly statements anticipating future growth in
revenues, OIBDA, cash provided by operating activities and other financial measures. Words such as
anticipates, estimates, expects, projects, intends, plans, believes and words and
terms of similar substance used in connection with any discussion of future operating or financial
performance identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are included
throughout this report and are based on managements current expectations and beliefs about future
events. As with any projection or forecast, they are susceptible to uncertainty and changes in
circumstances.
The Company operates in a highly competitive, consumer and technology driven and rapidly
changing business that is affected by government regulation and economic, strategic, political and
social conditions. Various factors could adversely affect the operations, business or financial
results of TWC in the future and cause TWCs actual results to differ materially from those
contained in the forward-looking statements, including those factors discussed in detail in Item
1A, Risk Factors, in the 2010 Form 10-K, and in TWCs other filings made from time to time with
the SEC after the date of this

TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION(Continued)
report. In addition, important factors that could cause the
Companys actual results to differ materially from those in its forward-looking statements include:
|
|
|
increased competition from video, high-speed data and voice providers, particularly
direct broadcast satellite operators, incumbent local telephone companies, companies that
deliver programming over broadband Internet connections, and wireless broadband and phone
providers; |
|
|
|
|
the Companys ability to deal effectively with the current challenging economic
environment or further deterioration in the economy, which may negatively impact customers
demand for the Companys services and also result in a reduction in the Companys
advertising revenues; |
|
|
|
|
the Companys continued ability to exploit new and existing technologies that appeal to
residential and business services customers; |
|
|
|
|
changes in the regulatory and tax environments in which the Company operates,
including, among others, regulation of broadband Internet services, net neutrality
legislation or regulation and federal, state and local taxation; |
|
|
|
|
increased difficulty negotiating programming and retransmission agreements on favorable
terms, resulting in increased costs to the Company and/or the loss of popular programming;
and |
|
|
|
|
changes in the Companys plans, initiatives and strategies. |
Any forward-looking statements made by the Company in this document speak only as of the date
on which they are made. The Company is under no obligation to, and expressly disclaims any
obligation to, update or alter its forward-looking statements whether as a result of changes in
circumstances, new information, subsequent events or otherwise.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and
operation of the Companys disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule
13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act)) as of the end
of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and
the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures are
effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted by the
Company under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time
periods specified in the SECs rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed by the
Company is accumulated and communicated to the Companys management to allow timely decisions
regarding the required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have not been any changes in the Companys internal control over financial reporting
during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to
materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
Time Warner Cable Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, TWC or the Company) is among
the largest providers of video, high-speed data and voice services, with technologically advanced,
well-clustered cable systems located mainly in five geographic areas New York State (including
New York City), the Carolinas, Ohio, Southern California (including Los Angeles) and Texas. TWCs
business services also include networking and transport services and, through its wholly-owned
subsidiary, NaviSite, Inc. (NaviSite), enterprise-class hosting, managed application, messaging
and cloud services (discussed further in Note 4). TWC also sells advertising to a variety of
national, regional and local advertising customers.
Basis of Presentation
Basis of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include all of the assets, liabilities, revenues,
expenses and cash flows of TWC and all entities in which TWC has a controlling voting interest. In
accordance with authoritative guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
related to the consolidation of variable interest entities, the consolidated financial statements
include the results of the Time Warner Entertainment-Advance/Newhouse Partnership (TWE-A/N) only
for the TWE-A/N cable systems that are controlled by TWC and for which TWC holds an economic
interest. Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been
eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts
reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements
include accounting for asset impairments, allowances for doubtful accounts, investments,
depreciation and amortization, business combinations, pension benefits, equity-based compensation,
income taxes, contingencies and certain programming arrangements. Allocation methodologies used to
prepare the consolidated financial statements are based on estimates and have been described in the
notes, where appropriate.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial information to conform to
the current year presentation, primarily including, as previously noted, the revised presentation
of the Companys revenues during the second quarter of 2011. This reclassification had no impact
on the Companys total revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. Additionally, the
Company reclassified certain sales-related customer care costs from costs of revenues to selling,
general and administrative expenses. This reclassification had no impact on the Companys
Operating Income or net income attributable to TWC shareholders for the three and six months ended
June 30, 2010.
Interim Financial Statements
The consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management,
they contain all the adjustments (consisting of those of a normal recurring nature) considered
necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the
periods presented in conformity with GAAP. The consolidated financial
statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of
TWC included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2011
Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Multiple Deliverables
In September 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that provides for a new methodology
for establishing the fair value for a deliverable in a multiple-element arrangement. When vendor
specific objective or third-party evidence for deliverables in a multiple-element arrangement
cannot be determined, an enterprise is required to develop a best estimate of the selling price of
separate deliverables and to allocate the arrangement consideration using the relative selling
price method. This guidance became effective for TWC on January 1, 2011 and did not have a
material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Accounting for Revenue Arrangements with Software Elements
In September 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that provides for a new methodology
for recognizing revenue for tangible products that are bundled with software products. Under the
new guidance, tangible products that are bundled with software components that are essential to the
functionality of the tangible product will no longer be accounted for under the software revenue
recognition accounting guidance. Rather, such products will be accounted for under the new
authoritative guidance covering multiple-element arrangements described above. This guidance
became effective for TWC on January 1, 2011 and did not have a material impact on the Companys
consolidated financial statements.
Business Combinations and Disclosures
In December 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that updates existing disclosure
requirements related to supplementary pro forma information for business combinations. Under the
updated guidance, a public entity that presents comparative financial statements should disclose
revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination that occurred during
the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period
only. The guidance also expands the supplemental pro forma disclosures to include a description of
the nature and amount of material, nonrecurring pro forma adjustments directly attributable to the
business combination included in the reported pro forma revenue and earnings. This guidance became
effective for TWC on January 1, 2011 and will be applied prospectively to material business
combinations that have an acquisition date on or after January 1, 2011.
Impairment Testing for Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
In December 2010, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that provides additional guidance on
when to perform the second step of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or
negative carrying amounts. Under this guidance, an entity is required to perform the second step of
the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts if
qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The
qualitative factors are consistent with the existing guidance, which requires that goodwill of a
reporting unit be tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances
change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying
amount. This guidance became effective for TWC on January 1, 2011 and did not have an impact on
the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted
Fair Value Measurements and Related Disclosures
In May 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that provides a uniform framework for fair
value measurements and related disclosures between GAAP and International Financial Reporting
Standards. Additional disclosure requirements under this guidance include: (1) for Level 3 fair
value measurements, quantitative information about unobservable inputs used, a description of the
valuation processes used by the entity, and a qualitative discussion about the sensitivity of the
measurements to changes in the unobservable inputs; (2) for an entitys use of a nonfinancial asset
that is different from the assets highest and best use, the reason for the difference; (3) for
financial instruments not measured at fair value but for
25

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
which disclosure of fair value is required, the fair value hierarchy level in which the fair
value measurements were determined; and (4) the disclosure of all transfers between Level 1 and
Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. This guidance will be effective for TWC on January 1, 2012 and
is not expected to have a material impact on the Companys consolidated financial statements.
Presentation of Comprehensive Income
In June 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance that eliminates the option to present
components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of changes in stockholders
equity, among other updates to the presentation of comprehensive income. Under this guidance, an
entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income
and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of
comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. In addition, an entity is
required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items
that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement(s) where the
components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. This
guidance will be effective for TWC on January 1, 2012 and will impact the presentation of the
Companys consolidated financial statements.
3. EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic net income attributable to TWC common shareholders is determined using the two-class
method and is computed by dividing net income attributable to TWC common shareholders by the
weighted average of common shares outstanding during the period. The two-class method is an
earnings allocation formula that determines income per share for each class of common stock and
participating security according to dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed
earnings. Diluted net income attributable to TWC common shareholders reflects the more dilutive
earnings per share amount calculated using the treasury stock method or the two-class method.
Set forth below is a reconciliation of net income attributable to TWC common shareholders per
basic and diluted common share (in millions, except per share data):

The Companys restricted stock units granted to employees and non-employee directors
are considered participating securities with respect to regular quarterly cash dividends. |
Diluted net income per common share attributable to TWC common shareholders for the six
months ended June 30, 2011 excludes 1.9 million common shares that may be issued under the
Companys equity-based compensation plans because they do not have a dilutive effect. For the
three months ended June 30, 2011 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, antidilutive
common shares related to equity-based compensation plans were insignificant.

4. BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS
NaviSite Acquisition
On April 21, 2011, TWC completed its acquisition of NaviSite for $263 million, net of cash
acquired. At closing, TWC also repaid $44 million of NaviSites debt. NaviSites financial results
have been included in the Companys consolidated financial statements from the acquisition date and
did not significantly impact the Companys consolidated financial results for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2011.
As part of the purchase price allocation, TWC recorded goodwill of $142 million and allocated
$63 million to property, plant and equipment (e.g., computer hardware) with depreciation periods
ranging from two to four years and allocated $56 million to intangible assets subject to
amortization (e.g., customer relationships, trademarks and developed technology) with amortization
periods ranging from four to seven years. The purchase price allocation is preliminary subject to
completion of a third-party valuation report and primarily used a discounted cash flow approach
with respect to identified intangible assets and a combination of the cost and market approaches
with respect to property, plant and equipment. The discounted cash flow approach was based upon
managements estimates of future cash flows and a discount rate consistent with the inherent risk
of each of the acquired assets.
Cable System Acquisition
In June 2011, TWC entered into an agreement with NewWave Communications to acquire certain
cable systems in Kentucky and western Tennessee serving roughly 130,000 primary service units for
approximately $260 million in cash. The transaction, which is subject to certain regulatory
approvals and customary closing conditions, is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2011.

2031 Notes are guaranteed by Time Warner Entertainment Company, L.P. (TWE) and TW NY Cable
Holding Inc. (TW NY) (the Guarantors). The Company expects to use the net proceeds for general
corporate purposes.
The 2031 Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of April 9, 2007, as it may be
amended from time to time (the Indenture), by and among the Company, the Guarantors and The Bank
of New York Mellon, as trustee. The Indenture contains customary covenants relating to
restrictions on the ability of the Company or any material subsidiary to create liens and on the
ability of the Company and the Guarantors to consolidate, merge or convey or transfer substantially
all of their assets. The Indenture also contains customary events of default.
The 2031 Notes mature on June 2, 2031 and interest is payable annually in arrears on June 2 of
each year, beginning on June 2, 2012. The 2031 Notes are unsecured senior obligations of the
Company and rank equally with its other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations. The guarantees of
the 2031 Notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Guarantors and rank equally in right of
payment with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Guarantors.
The 2031 Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time at the Companys option at a
redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount being redeemed and (ii)
the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments discounted to the redemption date
on an annual basis at a comparable government bond rate plus a designated number of basis points as
further described in the Indenture and the 2031 Notes, plus, in each case, accrued but unpaid
interest to, but not including, the redemption date.
The Company may offer to redeem all, but not less than all, of the 2031 Notes in the event of
certain changes in the tax laws of the United States (or any taxing authority in the United
States). This redemption would be at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount,
together with accrued and unpaid interest on the 2031 Notes to, but not including, the redemption
date.
The Company will, subject to certain exceptions and limitations set forth in the 2031 Notes,
pay additional amounts on the 2031 Notes as are necessary in order that the net payment by the
Company or a paying agent of the principal of and interest on the 2031 Notes to a holder who is not
a United States person, after withholding or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment or
other governmental charge imposed by the United States or a taxing authority in the United States
will not be less than the amount provided in the 2031 Notes to be then due and payable.

Fair Value Hedges
The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage interest rate risk by effectively converting
fixed-rate debt into variable-rate debt. Under such contracts, the Company is entitled to receive
semi-annual interest payments at fixed rates and is required to make semi-annual interest payments
at variable rates, without exchange of the underlying principal amount. Such contracts are
designated as fair value hedges. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had entered into interest rate
swaps on $7.850 billion principal amount of senior debt securities with maturities extending
through May 2017. The Company recognizes no gain or loss related to its interest rate swaps
because the changes in the fair values of such instruments are completely offset by the changes in
the fair values of the hedged fixed-rate debt.
Cash Flow Hedges
The Company uses cross-currency swaps to manage foreign exchange risk related to foreign
currency denominated debt by effectively converting foreign currency denominated debt, including
annual interest payments and the payment of principal at maturity, to U.S. dollar denominated debt.
Such contracts are designated as cash flow hedges. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had entered
into cross-currency swaps to effectively convert the entire balance of its fixed-rate British pound
sterling denominated debt to fixed-rate U.S. dollar denominated debt. The cross-currency swaps
have maturities extending through June 2031. As of June 30, 2011, the fair value of the
cross-currency swaps was $48 million, which is recorded in other liabilities, with an offset to
accumulated other comprehensive loss, net. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011,
the Company reclassified $10 million from accumulated other comprehensive loss, net, into other
expense, net, to offset the $10 million re-measurement gain on the British pound sterling
denominated debt. Additionally, the Company has used foreign exchange forward contracts to manage
foreign exchange risk related to forecasted payments denominated in the Philippine peso made to
vendors who provided customer care support services. Such contracts were designated as cash flow
hedges. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had no outstanding foreign currency forwards related to
forecasted payments denominated in the Philippine peso. Any ineffectiveness related to the
Companys cash flow hedges has been and is expected to be immaterial.
Equity Award Reimbursement Obligation
Upon the exercise of Time Warner Inc. (Time Warner) stock options held by TWC employees, TWC
is obligated to reimburse Time Warner for the excess of the market price of Time Warner common
stock on the day of exercise over the option exercise price (the intrinsic value of the award).
The Company records the equity award reimbursement obligation at fair value in the consolidated
balance sheet, which is estimated using the Black-Scholes model. The change in the equity award
reimbursement obligation fluctuates primarily with the fair value and expected volatility of Time
Warner common stock and changes in fair value are recorded in other expense, net in the period of
change. As of June 30, 2011, the weighted-average remaining contractual term of outstanding Time
Warner stock options held by TWC employees was 1.60 years. Refer to Note 7 for the changes in the
fair value of the equity award reimbursement obligation.

The fair value of interest rate swaps, classified as Level 2, utilized a discounted cash flow
analysis based on the terms of the contract and an interest rate curve. The fair value of foreign
currency forwards, classified as Level 2, utilized an income approach model based on forward
exchange rates less the contract rate multiplied by the notional amount. The fair value of cross
currency forwards, classified as Level 2, utilized a discounted cash flow analysis based on forward
interest and exchange rates. The fair value of the equity award reimbursement obligation,
classified as Level 3, utilized a Black-Scholes model using the fair value and expected volatility
of Time Warner common stock.

Other Financial Instruments
The Companys other financial instruments, excluding debt subject to interest rate swaps,
are not required to be carried at fair value. Based on the level of interest rates prevailing at
June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the fair value of TWCs fixed-rate debt and mandatorily
redeemable preferred equity exceeded the carrying value by approximately $2.805 billion and $2.818
billion as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Unrealized gains or losses on
debt do not result in the realization or expenditure of cash and are not recognized for financial
reporting purposes unless the debt is retired prior to its maturity. The carrying value for the
majority of the Companys other financial instruments approximates fair value due to the short-term
nature of such instruments. For the remainder of the Companys other financial instruments,
differences between the carrying value and fair value are not significant as of June 30, 2011. The
fair value of financial instruments is generally determined by reference to the market value of the
instrument as quoted on a national securities exchange or in an

over-the-counter market. In cases where a quoted market value is not available, fair value is
based on an estimate using present value or other valuation techniques.
Non-Financial Instruments
The majority of the Companys non-financial instruments, which include investments,
property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and goodwill, are not required to be carried at
fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur such that a
non-financial instrument is required to be evaluated for impairment, any resulting asset impairment
would require that the non-financial instrument be recorded at its fair value.
8. TWC SHAREHOLDERS EQUITY
Common Stock Repurchase Program
On October 29, 2010, TWCs Board of Directors authorized a $4.0 billion common stock
repurchase program (the Stock Repurchase Program). Purchases under the Stock Repurchase Program
may be made from time to time on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions. The size
and timing of the Companys purchases under the Stock Repurchase Program are based on a number of
factors, including price and business and market conditions. From January 1, 2011 through June 30,
2011, the Company repurchased 23.5 million shares of TWC common stock for $1.693 billion, including
0.6 million shares repurchased for $45 million that settled in July 2011. As of June 30, 2011, the
Company had $1.793 billion remaining under the Stock Repurchase Program.
9. EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION
The Company currently has one active equity plan (the 2011 Plan) under which TWC is
authorized to grant restricted stock units (RSUs) and options to purchase shares of TWC common
stock to its employees and non-employee directors. The 2011 Plan was approved at TWCs annual
meeting of stockholders in May 2011. Pursuant to the terms of the 2011 Plan, upon stockholder
approval of the 2011 Plan, no further awards may be made under the Companys 2006 Stock Incentive
Plan. As of June 30, 2011, the 2011 Plan provides for issuance of up to 20.0 million shares of TWC
common stock all of which were available for grant.

vesting conditions (PBUs) at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $72.05 per PBU. For the
six months ended June 30, 2010, TWC granted 1.936 million RSUs at a weighted-average grant date
fair value of $45.15 per RSU. No PBUs were granted during 2010. Total unrecognized compensation
cost related to unvested RSUs as of June 30, 2011, without taking into account expected
forfeitures, is $156 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period
of 2.87 years.
RSUs, including PBUs, generally vest equally on each of the third and fourth anniversary of
the grant date, subject to continued employment and, in the case of PBUs, subject to the
satisfaction and certification of the applicable performance conditions. RSUs provide for
accelerated vesting upon the grantees termination of employment after reaching a specified

age and years of service and, in the case of PBUs, subject to the satisfaction and
certification of the applicable performance conditions. PBUs are subject to forfeiture if the
applicable performance condition is not satisfied. Shares of TWC common stock will generally be
issued at the end of the vesting period of an RSU. RSUs awarded to non-employee directors are not
subject to vesting or forfeiture restrictions and the shares underlying the RSUs will generally be
issued in connection with a directors termination of service as a director. Holders of RSUs are
generally entitled to receive cash dividend equivalents or retained distributions related to
regular cash dividends or distributions, respectively, paid by TWC. In the case of PBUs, the
receipt of the dividend equivalents is subject to the satisfaction and certification of the
applicable performance conditions. Retained distributions are subject to the vesting requirements
of the underlying RSUs.
Stock Options
For the six months ended June 30, 2011, TWC granted 2.197 million stock options at a
weighted-average grant date fair value of $18.95 per option, including 262,000 stock options
subject to performance-based vesting conditions (PBOs) at a weighted-average grant date fair
value of $19.08 per PBO. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, TWC granted 3.796 million stock
options at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $10.94 per option. No PBOs were granted
during 2010. Total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested stock options as of June 30,
2011, without taking into account expected forfeitures, is $67 million, which the Company expects
to recognize over a weighted-average period of 2.71 years.
Stock options, including PBOs, have exercise prices equal to the fair market value of TWC
common stock at the date of grant. Generally, the stock options vest ratably over a four-year
vesting period and expire ten years from the date of grant, subject to continued employment and, in
the case of PBOs, subject to the satisfaction and certification of the applicable performance
condition. Certain stock option awards provide for accelerated vesting upon the grantees
termination of employment after reaching a specified age and years of service and, in the case of
PBOs, subject to the satisfaction and certification of the applicable performance conditions. PBOs
are subject to forfeiture if the applicable performance condition is not satisfied.
The table below presents the assumptions used to value stock options at their grant date for
the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and reflects the weighted average of all awards granted
within each period:

10. PENSION COSTS
TWC sponsors qualified noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering a majority of
its employees (the qualified pension plans). TWC also provides a nonqualified noncontributory
defined benefit pension plan for certain employees (the nonqualified pension plan and, together
with the qualified pension plans, the pension plans). Pension benefits are based on formulas
that reflect the employees years of service and compensation during their employment period. TWC
uses a December 31 measurement date for the pension plans. A summary of the components of net
periodic benefit costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is as follows (in

After considering the funded status of the pension plans, movements in the discount rate,
investment performance and related tax consequences, the Company may choose to make contributions
to the pension plans. As of June 30, 2011, there were no minimum required contributions for the
qualified pension plans. The Company did not make any contributions to the qualified pension plans
during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 but may make discretionary cash contributions
to the pension plans during the second half of 2011.
11. MERGER-RELATED AND RESTRUCTURING COSTS
Merger-related Costs
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company incurred merger-related costs of
$4 million in connection with the acquisition of NaviSite, all of which was paid during the second
quarter.
Restructuring Costs
Beginning in the first quarter of 2009, the Company began a restructuring to improve
operating efficiency, primarily related to headcount reductions and other exit costs, including the
termination of a facility lease during the second quarter of 2010. Through June 30, 2011, the
Company incurred costs of $144 million and made payments of $133 million related to this
restructuring. Through December 31, 2010, the Company eliminated approximately 2,200 positions and
eliminated approximately 160 additional positions during the first half of 2011. The Company
expects to incur additional restructuring costs during the second half of 2011.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Legal Proceedings
On April 7, 2011, the Company filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of New York against Viacom International Inc. and several of its subsidiaries (Viacom).
The complaint asked the court to render a declaratory judgment that certain programming agreements
between the Company and Viacom allow the Company to provide video programming services to its
customers over its cable systems through devices of the customers choosing, including through the
Companys iPad App and Smart TVs. The complaint further asks the court to declare that by
providing video programming services to its customers in this fashion, the Company is not
infringing Viacom copyrights. The same day, Viacom filed its own complaint against the Company in
the same court, alleging copyright and trademark infringement and breach of contract, and asking
for a declaratory judgment that the programming agreements between the Company and Viacom do not
allow the Company to distribute Viacom programming via broadband. The parties entered into a
standstill agreement, effective June 17, 2011, pursuant to which no further activity will take
place in the case while the parties explore possible settlement of this and other issues between
the companies. Absent a settlement of these claims, the Company intends to prosecute its lawsuit,
and defend against Viacoms, vigorously. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of Viacoms
lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.
The Company is the defendant in In re: Set-Top Cable Television Box Antitrust Litigation, ten
purported class actions filed in federal district courts throughout the United States. These
actions are subject to a Multidistrict Litigation (MDL) Order transferring the cases for
pre-trial purposes to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. On July 26,
2010, the plaintiffs filed a third amended consolidated class action complaint (the Third Amended
Complaint), alleging that the Company violated Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act, various
state antitrust laws and state unfair/deceptive trade practices statutes by tying the sales of
premium cable television services to the leasing of set-top converters boxes. The plaintiffs are
seeking, among other things, unspecified treble monetary damages and an injunction to cease such
alleged practices. On September 30, 2010, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the Third Amended
Complaint, which the court granted on April 8, 2011. On June 17, 2011, plaintiffs appealed this
decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The Company intends to defend
against this lawsuit vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably
estimate a range of possible loss.
On November 14, 2008, the plaintiffs in Mark Swinegar, et al. v. Time Warner Cable Inc., filed
a second amended complaint in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, as a purported class action,
alleging that the Company provided to and charged plaintiffs for equipment that they had not
affirmatively requested in violation of the proscription in the Cable Consumer Protection and
Competition Act of 1992 (the Cable Act) against negative option billing and that such violation
was an unlawful act or practice under Californias Unfair Competition Law (the UCL). Plaintiffs
are seeking restitution under the UCL and attorneys fees. On February 23, 2009, the court denied
the Companys motion to dismiss the second
34
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
amended complaint, and on July 29, 2010, the court
denied the Companys motion for summary judgment. On October 7, 2010, the Company filed a petition
for a declaratory ruling with the Federal Communications Commission (the FCC) requesting that the
FCC determine whether the Companys general ordering process complies with the Cable Acts
negative option billing restriction. On March 1, 2011, the FCC issued a Declaratory Ruling that
informed consent is adequate to satisfy the requirements under the Cable Act. On March 29, 2011,
the Los Angeles County Superior Court vacated its prior summary judgment ruling and, on May 12,
2011, the court granted the Companys motion for summary judgment. On June 13, 2011, plaintiffs
filed a motion for reconsideration of the decision. The Company intends to defend against this
lawsuit vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a
range of possible loss.
On September 20, 2007, Brantley, et al. v. NBC Universal, Inc., et al. was filed in the U.S.
District Court for the Central District of California against the Company. The complaint, which
also named as defendants several other cable and satellite providers (collectively, the
distributor defendants) as well as programming content providers (collectively, the programmer
defendants), alleged violations of Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Antitrust Act. Among other
things, the complaint alleged coordination between and among the programmer defendants to sell
and/or license programming on a bundled basis to the distributor defendants, who in turn
purportedly offer that programming to subscribers in packaged tiers, rather than on a per channel
(or à la carte) basis. Plaintiffs, who seek to represent a purported nationwide class of cable
and satellite subscribers, are seeking, among other things, unspecified treble monetary damages and
an injunction to compel the offering of channels to subscribers on an à la carte basis. On
December 3, 2007, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint in this action that, among other things,
dropped the Section 2 claims and all allegations of horizontal coordination. On October 15, 2009,
the district court granted with prejudice a motion by the distributor defendants and the programmer
defendants to dismiss the plaintiffs third amended complaint, terminating the action. On April 19,
2010, plaintiffs appealed this decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit and, on
June 3, 2011, the court reaffirmed the district courts decision. On July 7, 2011, plaintiffs
filed a petition for en banc review. The Company intends to defend against this lawsuit
vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of
possible loss.
The Company is also a defendant in two other purported class actions. On September 17, 2009,
the plaintiffs in Jessica Fink and Brett Noia, et al. v. Time Warner Cable Inc., filed an amended
complaint in a purported class action in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York
alleging that the Company uses a throttling technique which intentionally delays and/or blocks a
users high-speed data service. Plaintiffs are seeking unspecified monetary damages, injunctive
relief and attorneys fees. On September 25, 2009, TWC moved for summary judgment in this action,
which is pending. On January 27, 2011, the plaintiffs in Calzada, et al. v. Time Warner Cable LLC,
filed a purported class action in the Los Angeles County Superior Court alleging that the Company
recorded phone calls with plaintiffs without notice in violation of provisions of the California
Penal Code and the California Unfair Business Practices Act. The plaintiffs are seeking, among
other things, unspecified treble monetary damages, injunctive relief, restitution and attorneys
fees. On April 2, 2011, the plaintiff filed an amended complaint in this action that, among other
things, omitted the unfair business practices claim and removed two of the three named plaintiffs.
In each lawsuit, the Company intends to defend against the lawsuits vigorously, but is unable to
predict the outcome of the lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.
Certain Patent Litigation
On September 1, 2006, Ronald A. Katz Technology Licensing, L.P. (Katz) filed a complaint in
the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware alleging that TWC and several other cable
operators, among other defendants, infringe 18 patents purportedly relating to the Companys
customer call center operations and/or voicemail services. The plaintiff is seeking unspecified
monetary damages as well as injunctive relief. On March 20, 2007, this case, together with other
lawsuits filed by Katz, was made subject to a MDL Order transferring the case for pretrial
proceedings to the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. In April 2008, TWC
and other defendants filed common motions for summary judgment, which argued, among other things,
that a number of claims in the patents at issue are invalid under Sections 112 and 103 of the
Patent Act. On June 19 and August 4, 2008, the court issued orders granting, in part, and denying,
in part, those motions.
Defendants filed additional individual motions for summary judgment in August 2008, which
argued, among other things, that defendants respective products do not infringe the surviving
claims in plaintiffs patents. On August 13, 2009, the district court found one additional patent
invalid, but denied defendants motions for summary judgment on three remaining patents, and on
October 27, 2009, the district court denied the defendants requests for reconsideration of the
decision. Based on motions for summary judgment brought by other defendants, the district court
found, in decisions on January 29, 2010 and December 3, 2010, two of the three remaining patents
invalid with respect to those defendants. The Company intends to
35
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
defend against this lawsuit
vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of
possible loss.
On June 1, 2006, Rembrandt Technologies, LP (Rembrandt) filed a complaint in the U.S.
District Court for the Eastern District of Texas alleging that the Company and a number of other
cable operators infringed several patents purportedly related to a variety of technologies,
including high-speed data and IP-based telephony services. In addition, on September 13, 2006,
Rembrandt filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas alleging
that the Company infringed several patents purportedly related to high-speed cable modem internet
products and services. On June 18, 2007, these cases, along with other lawsuits filed by
Rembrandt, were made subject to an MDL Order transferring the case for pretrial proceedings to the
U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware. In November 2008, the district court issued its
claims construction orders. In response to these orders, the plaintiff has indicated it will
dismiss its claims relating to the alleged infringement of eight patents purportedly relating to
high-speed data and IP-based telephony services. Summary judgment motions are pending relating to
Rembrandts one remaining claim. The Company intends to defend against the remaining claim
vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of
possible loss.
From time to time, the Company receives notices from third parties claiming that it infringes
their intellectual property rights. Claims of intellectual property infringement could require TWC
to enter into royalty or licensing agreements on unfavorable terms, incur substantial monetary
liability or be enjoined preliminarily or permanently from further use of the intellectual property
in question. In addition, certain agreements entered may require the Company to indemnify the other
party for certain third-party intellectual property infringement claims, which could increase the
Companys damages and its costs of defending against such claims. Even if the claims are without
merit, defending against the claims can be time consuming and costly.
As part of the restructuring of TWE in 2003, Time Warner agreed to indemnify the Company from
and against any and all liabilities relating to, arising out of or resulting from specified
litigation matters brought against the TWE non-cable businesses. Although Time Warner has agreed to
indemnify the Company against such liabilities, TWE remains a named party in certain litigation
matters.
The costs and other effects of future litigation, governmental investigations, legal and
administrative cases and proceedings (whether civil or criminal), settlements, judgments and
investigations, claims and changes in pending matters (including those matters described above),
and developments or assertions by or against the Company relating to intellectual property rights
and intellectual property licenses, could have a material adverse effect on the Companys business,
financial condition and operating results.

14. CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
TWE and TW NY (the Guarantor Subsidiaries) are subsidiaries of Time Warner Cable Inc. (the
Parent Company). The Guarantor Subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally, jointly and
severally, directly or indirectly, guaranteed the debt issued by the Parent Company in its 2007
registered exchange offer and its subsequent public offerings. The Parent Company owns all of the
voting interests, directly or indirectly, of both TWE and TW NY.
38
TIME WARNER CABLE INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS(Continued)
(Unaudited)
The Securities and Exchange Commissions rules require that condensed consolidating financial
information be provided for subsidiaries that have guaranteed debt of a registrant issued in a
public offering, where each such guarantee is full and unconditional and where the voting interests
of the subsidiaries are wholly owned by the registrant. Set forth below are condensed consolidating
financial statements presenting the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of
(i) the Parent Company, (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries on a combined basis (as such guarantees are
joint and several), (iii) the direct and indirect non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Parent Company
(the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries) on a combined basis and (iv) the eliminations necessary to
arrive at the information for Time Warner Cable Inc. on a consolidated basis.
There are no legal or regulatory restrictions on the Parent Companys ability to obtain funds
from any of its subsidiaries through dividends, loans or advances.
Basis of Presentation
In presenting the condensed consolidating financial statements, the equity method of
accounting has been applied to (i) the Parent Companys interests in the Guarantor Subsidiaries and
the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries interests in the Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries and (iii) the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries interests in the Guarantor Subsidiaries,
where applicable, even though all such subsidiaries meet the requirements to be consolidated under
GAAP. All intercompany balances and transactions between the Parent Company, the Guarantor
Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been eliminated, as shown in the column
Eliminations.
The accounting bases in all subsidiaries, including goodwill and identified intangible assets,
have been allocated to the applicable subsidiaries. Certain administrative costs incurred by the
Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries or the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries are allocated to the
various entities based on the relative number of video subscribers at each entity. Interest
expense incurred by the Parent Company is allocated to certain subsidiaries based on each
subsidiarys contribution to revenues. In the condensed consolidating financial statements, income
tax provision has been presented based on each subsidiarys legal entity basis. Deferred taxes of
the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been
presented based upon the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the respective
assets and liabilities of the applicable entities.

Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
Reference
is made to the lawsuit filed by Time Warner Cable Inc. (together with
its subsidiaries, TWC or the Company) against Viacom International Inc. and
several of its subsidiaries (Viacom) and the lawsuit by Viacom against the Company described on
page 39 of the Companys Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 (the
March 31, 2011 Form 10-Q). The parties entered into a standstill agreement, effective June 17,
2011, pursuant to which no further activity will take place in the case while the parties explore
possible settlement of this and other issues between the companies. Absent a settlement of these
claims, the Company intends to prosecute its lawsuit, and defend against Viacoms, vigorously. The
Company is unable to predict the outcome of Viacoms lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of
possible loss.
Reference is made to the In re: Set-Top Cable Television Box Antitrust Litigation described on
page 28 of the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the 2010
Form 10-K) and page 39 of the March 31, 2011 Form 10-Q. On June 17, 2011, plaintiffs appealed the
district courts dismissal of plaintiffs third amended consolidated class action complaint to the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The Company intends to defend against this lawsuit
vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of
possible loss.
Reference is made to the lawsuit filed by Mark Swinegar, et al. described on page 28 of the
2010 Form 10-K and page 39 of the March 31, 2011 Form 10-Q. On May 12, 2011, the Los Angeles
County Superior Court granted the Companys motion for summary judgment and, on June 13, 2011,
plaintiffs filed a motion for reconsideration of the decision. The Company intends to defend
against this lawsuit vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of this lawsuit or reasonably
estimate a range of possible loss.
Reference is made to the lawsuit filed by Brantley, et al. described on page 28 of the 2010
Form 10-K. On June 3, 2011, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit reaffirmed the U.S.
District Court for the Central District of Californias decision to dismiss plaintiffs third
amended complaint and, on July 7, 2011, plaintiffs filed a petition for en banc review. The
Company intends to defend against this lawsuit vigorously, but is unable to predict the outcome of
this lawsuit or reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There have been no material changes in the Companys risk factors from those disclosed in Part
I, Item 1A of the 2010 Form 10-K.

On October 29, 2010, the Companys Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase
program that allows TWC to repurchase, from time to time, up to $4.0 billion of TWC common
stock. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $1.793 billion remaining under its stock
repurchase program. Purchases under the stock repurchase program may be made, from time to
time, on the open market and in privately negotiated transactions. The size and timing of
these purchases will be based on a number of factors, including price and business and market
conditions. |

This amount does not reflect the fees, commissions and other costs associated with
the stock repurchase program. |
Item 5. Other Information.
Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Glenn A. BrittAmendment to Employment Agreement
On July 27, 2011, the Company entered into an amendment, effective
as of July 27, 2011 (the Britt Amendment), to the Companys employment agreement with
Glenn A. Britt effective as of August 3, 2009 (the Britt Employment Agreement). The Britt Amendment
provides that Mr. Britt (a) will serve as the Companys Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
through December 31, 2013, subject to earlier termination pursuant to its terms, representing a
one-year extension of the term of the Britt Employment Agreement, and (b) will receive, commencing
in 2012, annual long-term incentive compensation with a target value of $8,500,000. If Mr. Britt
voluntarily leaves the Company after December 31, 2012, if the Companys Board of Directors
approves, he will be paid (a) any annual cash bonus for a prior year that has not yet been
determined and paid and (b) a pro rata portion of his annual cash bonus for any period worked in
the year of such termination (in each case, generally based on actual performance results and
determined in the same manner as bonus payments in the event of a
termination without cause) in addition to any other entitlements
under the Britt Employment Agreement.
In addition, the Britt Amendment modifies the forfeiture provision of the Britt Employment
Agreement such that if it is determined by the Board or a committee thereof that any bonus,
incentive or equity grant, payment or settlement made on Mr. Britts behalf was based in whole or
part on any financial performance criteria that were materially incorrect and resulted in the
restatement of the Companys financial statements within three years of the relevant period covered
therein, the Board or a designated committee thereof may require that Mr. Britt repay the amount of
the bonus, incentive or equity compensation that would not have been paid had the financial
performance criteria been correctly applied, on an after-tax basis and net of any additional
amounts that would have been due to Mr. Britt based on the correct application of such financial
performance criteria.
Except as described herein, the material terms of the Britt Employment Agreement, as amended
by the Britt Amendment, are described in the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K dated July 31,
2009 (filed with the Securities and Exchange
47
Commission
(SEC) on August 6, 2009) and the Companys definitive Proxy Statement dated April
6, 2011 (filed with the SEC on April 6, 2011).
Irene M. EstevesEmployment Agreement
On July 27, 2011, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Irene M. Esteves,
effective as of July 15, 2011 (the Esteves Agreement), pursuant to which Ms. Esteves will
serve as the Companys Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer through July 14,
2014, unless earlier terminated pursuant to its terms (the Term Date). The Esteves Agreement
provides for: (a) a minimum annual base salary of $800,000 (Base Salary); (b) an annual
discretionary cash bonus (a bonus) with a target amount of $1,200,000 (the Target Bonus)
(determined pursuant to the Companys bonus plans); and (c) annual long-term incentive compensation
eligibility with a target value of $3,000,000.
Termination for Cause. If Ms. Estevess employment by the Company is terminated for
cause, as defined in the Esteves Agreement, or as a result of her voluntary resignation prior to
the Term Date, the Company will have no further obligation other than (a) to pay her Base Salary
through the effective date of termination (the termination date); (b) in certain limited cases,
to pay any bonus for any year that has been determined but not yet paid as of such termination
date; and (c) with respect to any rights she may have pursuant to any indemnification, insurance,
deferred compensation or other benefit and incentive plans or arrangements of the Company.
Termination without Cause or Resignation for Good Reason. If Ms. Estevess employment
is terminated by the Company without cause or if she terminates her employment due to the Companys
material breach of its obligations under the Esteves Agreement, subject to her execution and
delivery of a release of claims, she will be entitled to:
|
(a) |
|
Base Salary and a pro-rata portion of any bonus through the termination date, subject
to the Companys actual achievement of the performance criteria established for the year of
termination, expressed as a percentage of her Target Bonus; |
|
(b) |
|
Any accrued, but unpaid bonus for the year prior to the year of termination that has
been determined but not paid as of the termination date; |
|
(c) |
|
Base Salary and annual cash Target Bonus paid for 24 months starting on the termination
date (the Severance Period) at the compensation rates in effect immediately prior to the
notice of termination; provided, however that this period shall be 36 months if such
termination occurs in connection with a change in control event (as described in the
Esteves Agreement) (the CIC Severance Period); and |
|
(d) |
|
Continued participation during the Severance Period or the CIC Severance Period, as
applicable, in the Companys health and welfare benefit plans or comparable arrangements
(subject to certain limitations if Ms. Esteves subsequently secures employment following
her termination date). |
In addition, all long-term incentive compensation awards granted by the Company to Ms. Esteves
during the term of the Esteves Agreement will vest in full on the termination date and any vested
stock options will be exercisable for the time periods set forth in the respective stock option
award agreements (subject to the satisfaction of any performance criteria).
Disability. In the event that Ms. Esteves becomes disabled (as defined in the Esteves
Agreement) during the term of the Esteves Agreement, the Company will continue to pay her full
compensation through the last day of the sixth consecutive month of disability or the date on which
any shorter periods of disability will have equaled a total of six months in any twelve-month
period (such last day or date, the Disability Date). If she has not resumed her usual duties on
or prior to the Disability Date, the Company will terminate her employment effective as of the
Disability Date and pay her a pro-rata bonus based on the Companys actual achievement of the
performance criteria established for the year in which the Disability Date occurs. Thereafter, the
Company will pay her disability benefits for 24 months after the Disability Date (the Disability
Period) in an annual amount equal to 75% of her Base Salary and Target Bonus in effect on the
Disability Date, as well as provide for continued participation in the Companys benefit plans and
programs in accordance with plan terms and applicable law. The disability payments will be reduced
by the amount of any disability payments received from any insurance benefits maintained by the
Company or provided by Social Security.
Death. In the event of Ms. Estevess death during the term of the Esteves Agreement,
her estate (or a designated beneficiary) will be entitled to receive Base Salary to the last day of
the month in which her death occurs and Target Bonus (at the time bonuses are normally paid) for
the year in which her death occurs based on the Companys actual performance
48
results for the relevant year, but prorated according to the number of whole or partial months
that she was employed by the Company in such calendar year.
Expiration of Term. If on the Term Date, Ms. Estevess employment has not previously
terminated and she is not disabled (as defined in the Esteves Agreement), the Esteves Agreement
will expire and her employment will continue on an at-will basis. If her employment is terminated
without cause while she is serving as an at-will employee, subject to the execution and delivery of
a release of claims, (a) her long-term incentive compensation awards outstanding on the Term Date
will be given the same treatment described above under Termination Without Cause or Resignation
for Good Reason and (b) she will be entitled to benefits under any executive level severance
program that will provide a minimum severance benefit equal to her Base Salary and Target Bonus in
effect at the time of the termination for six months from the termination date.
Excise Taxes/No Gross-Up. Under the terms of the Esteves Agreement, Ms. Esteves
remains responsible for the payment of any excise taxes that may arise under Section 280G and
related provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (Section 280G), in the event
that any payments to her under the Esteves Agreement or any other arrangement with the Company in
connection with a change in control of the Company (as provided for under Section 280G) would
constitute parachute payments within the meaning of Section 280G (the Parachute Payments), and
the Company has no gross-up obligations. The Esteves Agreement provides, however, that Parachute
Payments will either be paid in full or reduced to such lesser amounts that result in no portion of
the Parachute Payments being subject to excise taxes under Section 280G, whichever would, after
taking into account applicable taxes, result in Ms. Estevess receipt, on an after-tax basis, of
the greatest amount of benefits under the Esteves Agreement.
Restrictive Covenants. The Esteves Agreement also includes confidentiality terms, as
well as non-solicitation, non-compete, and non-disparagement covenants. The non-compete terms
generally prohibit Ms. Esteves from rendering services to, or investing in, a Competitive Entity
(as defined in the Esteves Agreement) for 24 months after her termination of employment during the
term of the Esteves Agreement (six months after a termination of her at-will employment).
Claw-Back Provisions. Severance and other benefit payments under the Esteves
Agreement cease if Ms. Esteves accepts other employment with a Competitive Entity or breaches her
other restrictive covenant obligations. In addition, the Company may recover, claw back or cause
the forfeiture of certain compensation paid or awarded to, or realized by, Ms. Esteves if the
Company is required to file an adverse restatement of its financial statements and it is determined
by the Board or a committee thereof that (a) Ms. Esteves was involved, had knowledge of or, by
virtue of her position and duties, should have known that the financial statements at issue were
false or misleading when filed and (b) such false or misleading financial statements resulted in
compensation that otherwise would not have been earned, vested, paid or realized. The Board or a
designated committee thereof may request that Ms. Esteves repay the amount of the bonus, incentive
or equity compensation subject to performance-based criteria that would not have been paid, vested
or recognized during the forfeiture period, as defined below, had the Company not relied on such
financial statements. The forfeiture period means the three-year period following the last day
of the fiscal year of the financial statements that the Company restated; provided that such
forfeiture period shall not apply if such restatement is filed by the Company more than three years
after the last day of the fiscal year of the restated financial statements.
