As previously reported, on March 12, 2009, Time Warner received approximately $9.25 billion as its portion of the special cash dividend (the "Special Dividend") paid by Time Warner Cable Inc. ("TWC") to its stockholders in connection with the separation of TWC from the Company.
On March 17, 2009, the Company used a portion of the proceeds it received from the Special Dividend to repay in full the $2.0 billion outstanding under the Term Facility plus accrued interest and terminated the Credit Agreement. The guarantees of Time Warner's obligations under the Term Facility provided by TW AOL Holdings Inc. and Historic TW Inc. ("Historic TW") and the guarantee of Historic TW's guarantee obligation provided by Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. were also terminated. The Term Facility would have matured on January 8, 2011.

Certain of the lenders under the Term Facility and their affiliates have performed and may, from time to time in the future, engage in transactions with and perform commercial and investment banking and advisory services for the Company and its subsidiaries for which they have received or will receive customary fees and expenses.
