OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION – (Continued)
OVERVIEW
     Time Warner is a leading media and entertainment company whose major businesses encompass an array of the most respected and successful media brands. Among the Company’s brands are TNT, TBS, CNN, HBO, Cinemax, Warner Bros., New Line Cinema, People, Sports Illustrated and Time. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company generated revenues of $13.713 billion (up 8% from $12.699 billion in 2010), Operating Income of $2.536 billion (down 5% from $2.657 billion in 2010), Net Income attributable to Time Warner shareholders of $1.291 billion (essentially flat compared to $1.287 billion in 2010) and Cash Provided by Operations from Continuing Operations of $868 million (down 37% from $1.388 billion in 2010).
Time Warner Businesses
     Time Warner classifies its operations into three reportable segments: Networks, Filmed Entertainment and Publishing. For additional information regarding Time Warner’s business segments, refer to Note 11, “Segment Information,” in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
     Networks. Time Warner’s Networks segment consists of Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (“Turner”) and Home Box Office, Inc. (“Home Box Office”). During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Networks segment generated revenues of $6.947 billion (50% of the Company’s overall revenues) and $2.186 billion in Operating Income.
     Turner operates domestic and international networks, including such recognized brands as TNT, TBS, CNN and Cartoon Network, which are among the leaders in advertising-supported cable television networks. The Turner networks generate revenues principally from providing programming to affiliates that have contracted to receive and distribute this programming and from the sale of advertising. Turner also operates various websites, including CartoonNetwork.com, CNN.com, Golf.com, NASCAR.com, NCAA.com and SI.com that generate revenues principally from the sale of advertising. During the first quarter of 2011, as part of a 14-year arrangement with CBS Broadcasting, Inc. (“CBS”) and The National Collegiate Athletic Association (the “NCAA”), Turner and CBS began jointly producing and distributing the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship events (the “NCAA Tournament”) and related programming across television, Internet and wireless platforms. The events were televised on Turner’s TNT, TBS and truTV networks and on the CBS network.
     Home Box Office operates the HBO and Cinemax multi-channel premium pay television services, with the HBO service ranking as the most widely distributed domestic multi-channel premium pay television service. Home Box Office generates revenues principally from providing programming to affiliates that have contracted to receive and distribute such programming to their customers who choose to subscribe to the HBO or Cinemax services. An additional source of revenues for Home Box Office is the sale and licensing of its original programming, including The Pacific, Sex and the City, True Blood and Boardwalk Empire. On May 2, 2011, Home Box Office launched HBO GO, its authenticated online video service, on mobile devices including the iPad, iPhone and Android smart phones. HBO GO was available to approximately 80% of HBO’s domestic subscriber base as of August 3, 2011.
     The Company’s Networks segment has been pursuing international expansion in select areas for the past several years. During the first quarter of 2011, Home Box Office purchased an additional 8% equity interest in HBO Latin America Group, consisting of HBO Brazil, HBO Olé and HBO Latin America Production Services (collectively, “HBO LAG”), for $65 million, resulting in Home Box Office owning 88% of the equity interests in HBO LAG. The investment in HBO LAG is accounted for under the equity method of accounting, because control of the entity is shared with the remaining minority partner. The Company anticipates that international expansion will continue to be an area of focus at the Networks segment for the foreseeable future.
     Filmed Entertainment. Time Warner’s Filmed Entertainment segment consists of businesses managed by the Warner Bros. Entertainment Group (“Warner Bros.”) that principally produce and distribute theatrical motion pictures, including The Hangover Part II and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, as well as television shows and videogames. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Filmed Entertainment segment generated revenues of $5.451 billion (37% of the Company’s overall revenues) and $312 million in Operating Income.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION – (Continued)
     The Filmed Entertainment segment’s theatrical product revenues are generated principally through rentals from theatrical exhibition and subsequently through licensing fees received for the distribution of films on television networks and pay television programming services. Television product revenues are generated principally from the licensing of the Filmed Entertainment segment’s programs on television networks and pay television programming services. The Filmed Entertainment segment also generates revenues for both its theatrical and television product through home video distribution on DVD and Blu-ray Discs and in various digital formats. In addition, the Filmed Entertainment segment generates revenues through the distribution of interactive videogames.
     Warner Bros. continues to be an industry leader in the television content business. For the 2011-2012 broadcast season, Warner Bros. expects to produce more than 30 scripted primetime series, with at least three series for each of the five broadcast networks (including Two and a Half Men, The Mentalist, The Big Bang Theory, Mike & Molly, Vampire Diaries, Fringe and The Middle) and original series for several cable networks (including The Closer, Rizzoli & Isles and Pretty Little Liars). Internationally, Warner Bros. is forming a group of local television production companies in major territories with a focus on non-scripted programs and formats that can be sold internationally and adapted for sale in the U.S. Warner Bros. is also creating locally produced versions of programs owned by the studio and is developing original local television programming.
     The distribution of DVDs has been one of the largest drivers of the segment’s revenues and profits over the last several years. However, in recent years, home video revenues have declined as a result of several factors, including consumers shifting to subscription rental services and discount rental kiosks, which generate significantly less revenue per transaction for the Company than DVD sales, the general economic downturn in the U.S. and many regions around the world, increasing competition for consumer discretionary time and spending, piracy, and the maturation of the standard definition DVD format. Reduced consumer spending on DVDs is being partially offset by growing sales of high definition Blu-ray Discs and increased sales through electronic delivery (particularly video-on-demand), which have higher gross margins than standard definition DVDs.
     Publishing. Time Warner’s Publishing segment consists principally of magazine publishing and related websites as well as marketing services and direct-marketing businesses that are all primarily conducted by Time Inc. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Publishing segment generated revenues of $1.744 billion (13% of the Company’s overall revenues) and $232 million in Operating Income.
     As of June 30, 2011, Time Inc. published 21 magazines in the U.S., including People, Sports Illustrated and Time, and over 70 magazines outside the U.S. The Publishing segment generates revenues primarily from the sale of print advertising, magazine subscriptions and newsstand sales. Digital Advertising revenues were 12% and 13% of Time Inc.’s total Advertising revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, compared to 14% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.
Recent Developments
2011 Debt Offering
     On April 1, 2011, Time Warner issued $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of debt securities from its shelf registration statement. The net proceeds of the offering will be used for general corporate purposes. See “Financial Condition and Liquidity – Outstanding Debt and Other Financing Arrangements” for more information.

For the three months ended June 30, 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 7% to $1.621 billion from $1.512 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to an increase at the Networks segment. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses increased 7% to $3.212 billion from $3.000 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010 primarily due to an increase at the Networks segment.

     Operating Income. Operating Income increased to $1.266 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from $1.194 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2010. Excluding the items noted under “Significant Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability” totaling $13 million and $8 million of expense for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, Operating Income increased $77 million, primarily reflecting increases at the Networks and Publishing segments, partially offset by a decline at the Filmed Entertainment segment.
     Operating Income decreased to $2.536 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $2.657 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

The changes for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 reflect higher average debt in 2011, primarily related to the issuance of $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of debt securities in April 2011 and lower average interest rates due in part to the debt transactions the Company completed in 2010. Interest expense, net, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 includes interest income of $13 million recognized on amounts held in escrow in connection with a dispute that has been resolved.

     Net income increased to $1.288 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $1.285 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010. Excluding the items noted under “Significant Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability” totaling $2 million and $8 million of expense, net for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, net income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 decreased by $3 million, primarily reflecting lower Operating Income, partially offset by decreases in income tax expense.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $1 million and $3 million, respectively. For both the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interests was $2 million.
     Net Income Attributable to Time Warner Inc. Shareholders.

     The increase in Subscription revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 consisted of an increase in domestic subscription revenues of $85 million and $206 million, respectively, mainly due to higher domestic subscription rates, and an increase in international subscription revenues of $42 million and $88 million, respectively, primarily due to international subscriber growth.
     The increase in Advertising revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 reflected domestic growth of $69 million and $260 million, respectively, mainly as a result of sports programming. International advertising revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 increased $43 million and $94 million, respectively, primarily due to international growth.
     The increase in Content revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was due primarily to higher sales of Home Box Office’s original programming of $19 million and $111 million, respectively, and higher licensing revenues of $15 million and $39 million, respectively, at Turner.

(a)   Costs of revenues exclude depreciation.
     The increases in Costs of revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were driven by higher programming and other direct operating costs. The increase in programming costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 reflected higher costs for originals and sports programming, primarily related to the NCAA Tournament programming. The increases in other direct operating costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 were driven by higher international costs of $22 million and $44 million, respectively, related to international growth and higher Home Box Office distribution costs of $17 million and $49 million, respectively, primarily associated with the increase in content sales of Home Box Office’s original programming.
     For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses increased due primarily to higher marketing expenses of $50 million and $84 million, respectively, including expenses associated with an HBO GO national marketing campaign. Selling, general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2011 also included higher international costs of $27 million primarily associated with growth.
     As previously noted under “Significant Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability,” the results for the six months ended June 30, 2010 included a $59 million gain that was recognized upon the Company’s acquisition of the controlling interest in HBO CE, reflecting the excess of the fair value over the Company’s carrying costs of its original investment in HBO CE.
     Operating Income increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily due to higher revenues, partially offset by higher costs of revenues and selling, general and administrative expenses. Operating Income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 on a comparative basis was negatively affected by the absence in 2011 of the $59 million gain relating to HBO CE.

     For the three months ended June 30, 2011, theatrical product revenues from theatrical film decreased primarily due to lower revenues from theatrical films released in the current quarter of $51 million, partially offset by higher carryover revenues from releases in prior periods of $24 million. Five theatrical films were released in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to six in the prior year quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, theatrical product revenues from theatrical film decreased primarily due to lower carryover revenues from releases in prior periods of $142 million and lower revenues from theatrical films released in the first six months of 2011 of $47 million. Ten theatrical films were released in the first half of 2011 as compared to 11 in the first half of 2010.
     Theatrical product revenues from home video and electronic delivery for the three months ended June 30, 2011, increased primarily due to an increase in revenues from current quarter releases of $219 million, partially offset by lower carryover revenues from releases in prior periods and catalog revenues of $61 million. There were six releases in the current quarter as compared to four in the prior year quarter. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, theatrical product revenues from home video and electronic delivery were essentially flat compared to the six months ended June 30, 2010, primarily due to higher carryover revenues from releases in prior periods and catalog revenues of $58 million, offset by lower revenues from current year-to-date releases in the first six months of 2011 of $55 million. There were 11 releases in the first half of 2011 as compared to 15 in the first half of 2010.
     Theatrical product revenues from television licensing decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 due primarily to the mix of availabilities.
     The decrease in television product licensing fees for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to lower revenues from initial telecasts. The increase in television product licensing fees for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was due to higher revenues from worldwide syndication of $113 million and higher revenues from initial telecasts of $64 million.
     Television product revenues from home video and electronic delivery decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 due to the timing and mix of product.
     For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, Other content revenues increased primarily due to higher revenues from interactive videogames released in the current quarter of $170 million and interactive videogames released in the first six months of 2011 of $254 million, respectively. Five interactive videogames were released in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to two in the prior year quarter.

product released. Film costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 included net theatrical film valuation adjustments of $50 million as a result of revisions to estimates of ultimate revenue for certain theatrical films. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, there were no such net adjustments.
     The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to higher costs associated with new business initiatives and acquisitions of $20 million and $35 million, respectively, and higher distribution costs of $13 million and $22 million, respectively, primarily associated with third-party videogames.
     As previously noted under “Significant Transactions and Other Items Affecting Comparability,” the results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 included an $11 million impairment of an intangible asset.

     Cash used by investing activities from continuing operations decreased to $590 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 from $646 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease was primarily the result of lower investments and acquisitions spending, partially offset by higher capital expenditures.

     Cash used by financing activities from continuing operations was $421 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and $1.214 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in cash used by financing activities from continuing operations was primarily due to an increase in net borrowings, partially offset by an increase in repurchases of common stock made in connection with the Company’s common stock repurchase program.
Cash Flows from Discontinued Operations
     Cash used by discontinued operations was $23 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010.
Outstanding Debt and Other Financing Arrangements

The weighted average maturity of the Company’s outstanding debt and other financing arrangements was 14.9 years as of June 30, 2011.
 
(b)   Represents the portion of committed capacity, including from bilateral letter of credit facilities, reserved for outstanding and undrawn letters of credit.

(d)   Unused committed capacity includes committed financings of subsidiaries under local bank credit agreements. Other debt obligations totaling $29 million are due within the next twelve months.
2011 Debt Offering
     On April 1, 2011, Time Warner issued $2.0 billion aggregate principal amount of debt securities from its shelf registration statement, consisting of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Notes due 2021 and $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.25% Debentures due 2041. The net proceeds of the offering will be used for general corporate purposes.
Revolving Bank Credit Facilities
     The Company has two senior unsecured revolving bank credit facilities totaling $5.0 billion (the “Revolving Credit Facilities”), consisting of a $2.5 billion three-year revolving credit facility that matures on January 19, 2014 and a $2.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility that matures on January 19, 2016 pursuant to a credit agreement dated as of January 19, 2011.
     The funding commitments under the Revolving Credit Facilities are provided by a geographically diverse group of over 20 major financial institutions based in countries including Canada, France, Germany, Japan, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the U.S. No institution accounts for more than 7% of the aggregate undrawn loan commitments.
Commercial Paper Program
     The Company has a commercial paper program, which was established on February 16, 2011 on a private placement basis, under which Time Warner may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $5.0 billion.
Programming Licensing Backlog
     Programming licensing backlog represents the amount of future revenues not yet recorded from cash contracts for the worldwide licensing of theatrical and television product for premium cable, basic cable and broadcast exhibition. Backlog was approximately $5.4 billion and $5.2 billion at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. Included in these amounts is licensing of film product from the Filmed Entertainment segment to the Networks segment in the amount of $1.5 billion and $1.3 billion at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

CAUTION CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
     This report contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Forward-looking statements often include words such as “anticipates,” “estimates,” “expects,” “projects,” “intends,” “plans,” “believes” and words and terms of similar substance in connection with discussions of future operating or financial performance. Examples of forward-looking statements in this report include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the adequacy of the Company’s liquidity to meet its needs for the foreseeable future and the Company’s international expansion plans.
     The Company’s forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and assumptions regarding the Company’s business and performance, the economy and other future conditions and forecasts of future events, circumstances and results. As with any projection or forecast, forward-looking statements are inherently susceptible to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. The Company’s actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied in its forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those in its forward-looking statements include government regulation, economic, strategic, political and social conditions and the following factors:
   
recent and future changes in technology, services and standards, including, but not limited to, alternative methods for the delivery, storage and consumption of digital media and evolving DVD formats;
   
changes in consumer behavior, including changes in spending behavior and changes in when, where and how digital media is consumed;
   
changes in the Company’s plans, initiatives and strategies, and consumer acceptance thereof;
   
competitive pressures, including as a result of audience fragmentation and changes in technology;
   
the popularity of the Company’s content;
   
the Company’s ability to deal effectively with an economic slowdown or other economic or market difficulty;
   
changes in advertising expenditures due to, among other things, the shift of advertising expenditures from traditional to digital media, pressure from public interest groups, changes in laws and regulations and other societal, political, technological and regulatory developments;
   
piracy and the Company’s ability to protect its content and intellectual property rights;
   
lower than expected valuations associated with the cash flows and revenues at Time Warner’s segments, which could result in Time Warner’s inability to realize the value of recorded intangible assets and goodwill at those segments;
   
decreased liquidity in the capital markets, including any limitation on the Company’s ability to access the capital markets for debt securities or obtain bank financings on acceptable terms;
   
the effects of any significant acquisitions, dispositions and other similar transactions by the Company;
   
the failure to meet earnings expectations;
   
the adequacy of the Company’s risk management framework;
   
changes in U.S. GAAP or other applicable accounting policies;
   
the impact of terrorist acts, hostilities, natural disasters and pandemic viruses;
   
the effect of union or labor disputes or player lock-outs affecting the NBA or other professional sports leagues whose programming is shown on the Company’s networks;
   
changes in tax, federal communication and other laws and regulations; and
   
the other risks and uncertainties detailed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
     Any forward-looking statements made by the Company in this report speak only as of the date on which they are made.

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 Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Description of Business
     Time Warner Inc. (“Time Warner” or the “Company”) is a leading media and entertainment company, whose businesses include television networks, filmed entertainment and publishing. Time Warner classifies its operations into three reportable segments: Networks: consisting principally of cable television networks that provide programming; Filmed Entertainment: consisting principally of feature film, television, home video and interactive videogame production and distribution; and Publishing: consisting principally of magazine publishing. Financial information for Time Warner’s various reportable segments is presented in Note 11.
Basis of Presentation
Interim Financial Statements
     The consolidated financial statements are unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, they contain all of the adjustments (consisting of those of a normal recurring nature) considered necessary to present fairly the financial position, the results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) applicable to interim periods. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of Time Warner included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “2010 Form 10-K”).
Basis of Consolidation
     The consolidated financial statements include all of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and cash flows of entities in which Time Warner has a controlling interest (“subsidiaries”). Intercompany accounts and transactions between consolidated companies have been eliminated in consolidation.
     The financial position and operating results of substantially all foreign operations are consolidated using the local currency as the functional currency. Local currency assets and liabilities are translated at the rates of exchange on the balance sheet date, and local currency revenues and expenses are translated at average rates of exchange during the period. Translation gains or losses of assets and liabilities are included in the consolidated statement of shareholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net.
Use of Estimates
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
     Significant estimates and judgments inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include accounting for asset impairments, allowances for doubtful accounts, depreciation and amortization, the determination of ultimate revenues as it relates to amortized capitalized film and programming costs and participations and residuals, home video and interactive videogames product and magazine returns, business combinations, pension and other postretirement benefits, equity-based compensation, income taxes, contingencies, litigation matters and the determination of whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of entities in which it holds variable interests.
2. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
     A fair value measurement is determined based on the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability. A three-tiered hierarchy draws distinctions between market participant assumptions based on (i) observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets (Level 1), (ii) inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly (Level 2) and (iii) unobservable inputs that require the Company to use present value and other valuation techniques in the determination of fair value (Level 3). The following tables present

Other Financial Instruments
     The Company’s other financial instruments, including debt, are not required to be carried at fair value. Based on the interest rates prevailing at June 30, 2011, the fair value of Time Warner’s debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $2.093 billion and, based on interest rates prevailing at December 31, 2010, the fair value of Time Warner’s debt exceeded its carrying value by approximately $2.269 billion. Unrealized gains or losses on debt do not result in the realization or expenditure of cash and generally are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements unless the debt

is retired prior to its maturity. The carrying value of the majority of the Company’s other financial instruments approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the financial instruments or because the financial instruments are of a longer-term nature and are recorded on a discounted basis. For the remainder of the Company’s other financial instruments, differences between the carrying value and fair value are not significant at 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 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 Company’s non-financial instruments, which include goodwill, intangible assets, inventories and property, plant and equipment, are not required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis. However, if certain triggering events occur (or at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets) such that a non-financial instrument is required to be evaluated for impairment, a resulting asset impairment would require that the non-financial instrument be recorded at the lower of cost or its fair value.
     In determining the fair value of its films, the Company employs a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology with assumptions for cash flows for periods not exceeding 10 years. Key inputs employed in the DCF methodology include estimates of a film’s ultimate revenue and costs as well as a discount rate. The discount rate utilized in the DCF analysis is based on the weighted average cost of capital of the respective business (e.g., Warner Bros.) plus a risk premium representing the risk associated with producing a particular film. The fair value of any film costs associated with a film that management plans to abandon is zero. As the primary determination of fair value is made using a DCF model, the resulting fair value is considered a Level 3 measurement. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, certain film costs, which were recorded as inventory in the consolidated balance sheet, were written down to $184 million from their carrying value of $234 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, certain film costs, which were recorded as inventory in the consolidated balance sheet, were written down to $184 million from their carrying value of $239 million. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, there were no film costs that were required to be written down to fair value.

4. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
     Time Warner uses derivative instruments, principally forward contracts, to manage the risk associated with the volatility of future cash flows denominated in foreign currencies and changes in fair value resulting from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The principal currencies being hedged include the British Pound, Euro, Australian Dollar and Canadian Dollar. Time Warner uses foreign exchange contracts that generally have maturities of three to 18 months to hedge various foreign exchange exposures, including the following: (i) variability in foreign-currency-denominated cash flows, such as the hedges of unremitted or forecasted royalty and license fees owed to Time Warner domestic companies for the sale or anticipated sale of U.S. copyrighted products abroad or cash flows for certain film production costs denominated in a foreign currency (i.e., cash flow hedges) and (ii) currency risk associated with foreign-currency-denominated operating assets and liabilities (i.e., fair value hedges). For these qualifying hedge relationships, the Company excludes the impact of forward points from its assessment of hedge effectiveness. As a result, changes in the fair value of forward points are recorded in other loss, net in the consolidated statement of operations each quarter.
     The Company also enters into derivative contracts that economically hedge certain of its foreign currency risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. These economic hedges are used primarily to offset the change in certain foreign currency denominated long-term receivables and certain foreign-currency-denominated debt due to changes in the underlying foreign exchange rates.
     Gains and losses from hedging activities recognized in the consolidated statement of operations, including hedge ineffectiveness, were not material for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. In addition, such gains and losses were largely offset by corresponding economic gains or losses from the respective transactions that were hedged.
     The following is a summary of amounts recorded in the consolidated balance sheet pertaining to Time Warner’s use of foreign currency derivatives at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 (millions):
                 
            December 31,  
    June 30, 2011     2010  
Qualifying Hedges

  $ 15      $ 17

    (65)       (27)  
     The Company monitors its positions with, and the credit quality of, the financial institutions that are party to its financial transactions. Additionally, netting provisions are included in existing agreements in situations where the Company executes multiple contracts with the same counterparty. As a result, net assets or liabilities resulting from foreign exchange derivatives subject to these netting agreements are classified within prepaid expenses and other current assets or accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, $1 million of gains and $21 million of losses, respectively, related to cash flow hedges are recorded in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net and are expected to be recognized in earnings at the same time the hedged items affect earnings. Included in Accumulated other comprehensive loss, net are deferred net gains of $37 million and $17 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, related to hedges of cash flows associated with films that are not expected to be released within the next twelve months.
5. LONG-TERM DEBT AND OTHER FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
Debt Offering
     On April 1, 2011, Time Warner issued $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 4.75% Notes due 2021 and $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.25% Debentures due 2041 (the “April 2011 Debt Offering”) from its shelf registration statement. The securities issued pursuant to the April 2011 Debt Offering are directly or indirectly guaranteed,

on an unsecured basis, by Historic TW Inc. (“Historic TW”), Home Box Office, Inc. (“Home Box Office”) and Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. (“Turner”).
Revolving Bank Credit Facilities
     The Company has two senior unsecured revolving bank credit facilities totaling $5.0 billion, consisting of a $2.5 billion three-year revolving credit facility (the “Three-Year Revolving Credit Facility”) that matures on January 19, 2014 and a $2.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility (the “Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Three-Year Revolving Credit Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facilities”) that matures on January 19, 2016 pursuant to a credit agreement dated as of January 19, 2011 (the “Credit Agreement”). The permitted borrowers under the Credit Agreement are Time Warner and Time Warner International Finance Limited (“TWIFL” and together with Time Warner, the “Borrowers”).
     Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facilities bear interest at a rate determined by the debt rating for Time Warner’s senior unsecured long-term debt and the percentage of commitments used under the facility. Based on the debt rating as of June 30, 2011, borrowings under each of the Revolving Credit Facilities would bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR (TIBOR in the case of yen borrowings) plus 1.25% per annum if the percentage of commitments used under the facility does not exceed 25% or LIBOR (TIBOR in the case of yen borrowings) plus 1.50% per annum if the percentage of commitments used under the facility exceeds 25%. In addition, the Borrowers are required to pay a facility fee on the aggregate commitments under the Revolving Credit Facilities at a rate based on the debt rating for Time Warner’s senior unsecured long-term debt. Based on the debt rating as of June 30, 2011, the facility fee was 0.225% per annum on the aggregate amount of commitments under the Three-Year Revolving Credit Facility and 0.300% per annum on the aggregate amount of commitments under the Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility.
     The Credit Agreement provides same-day funding and multi-currency capability, and a portion of the commitment, not to exceed $500 million at any time, may be used for the issuance of letters of credit. The covenants for the Credit Agreement include a maximum consolidated leverage ratio covenant of 4.5 times the consolidated EBITDA of Time Warner, but exclude any credit ratings-based defaults or covenants or any ongoing covenant or representations specifically relating to a material adverse change in Time Warner’s financial condition or results of operations. The terms and related financial metrics associated with the leverage ratio are defined in the Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facilities may be used for general corporate purposes, and unused credit is available to support borrowings by Time Warner under its commercial paper program. The Credit Agreement also contains certain events of default customary for credit facilities of this type (with customary grace periods, as applicable). The Borrowers may from time to time, so long as no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing, increase the commitments under either or both of the Revolving Credit Facilities by up to $500 million per facility by adding new commitments or increasing the commitments of willing lenders. The obligations of each of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement are directly or indirectly guaranteed, on an unsecured basis by Historic TW, Home Box Office and Turner. The obligations of TWIFL under the Credit Agreement are also guaranteed by Time Warner.
Commercial Paper Program
     The Company has a commercial paper program, which was established on February 16, 2011 on a private placement basis, under which Time Warner may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $5.0 billion (the “CP Program”). Proceeds from the CP Program may be used for general corporate purposes. Commercial paper issued by Time Warner is supported by, and the amount of commercial paper issued may not exceed, the unused committed capacity under the Revolving Credit Facilities. The obligations of the Company under the CP Program are directly or indirectly guaranteed, on an unsecured basis by Historic TW, Home Box Office and Turner.
6. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Common Stock Repurchase Program
     On January 25, 2011, Time Warner’s Board of Directors increased the amount remaining on the Company’s common stock repurchase program to $5.0 billion for share repurchases beginning January 1, 2011. 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 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 approximately 56 million shares of common stock for approximately $2.000 billion pursuant to trading programs under Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

12. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments
Six Flags
     In connection with the Company’s former investment in the Six Flags theme parks located in Georgia and Texas (collectively, the “Parks”), in 1997, certain subsidiaries of the Company (including Historic TW and, in connection with the separation of Time Warner Cable Inc. (“TWC”) in 2009, Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc.) agreed to guarantee (the “Six Flags Guarantee”) certain obligations of the partnerships that hold the Parks (the “Partnerships”) for the benefit of the limited partners in such Partnerships, including: annual payments made at the Parks or to the limited partners and additional obligations at the end of the respective terms for the Partnerships in 2027 and 2028 (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The aggregate undiscounted estimated future cash flow requirements covered by the Six Flags Guarantee over the remaining term (through 2028) are approximately $1.0 billion (for a net present value of approximately $410 million). To date, no payments have been made by the Company pursuant to the Six Flags Guarantee.
     Six Flags Entertainment Corporation (formerly known as Six Flags, Inc. and Premier Parks Inc.) (“Six Flags”), which has the controlling interest in the Parks, has agreed, pursuant to a subordinated indemnity agreement (the “Subordinated Indemnity Agreement”), to guarantee the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations when due and to indemnify Historic TW, among others, if the Six Flags Guarantee is called upon. If Six Flags defaults in its indemnification obligations, Historic TW has the right to acquire control of the managing partner of the Parks. Six Flags’ obligations to Historic TW are further secured by its interest in all limited partnership units held by Six Flags.
     In connection with Six Flags’ emergence from bankruptcy, on April 30, 2010, a Time Warner subsidiary (TW-SF LLC), as lender, entered into a 5-year $150 million multiple draw term facility with certain affiliates of the Partnerships, as borrowers, which can be used only to fund such affiliates’ annual obligations to purchase certain limited partnership units of the Partnerships. Any loan made under the facility will mature 5 years from its respective funding date. No loans were made under the facility in 2010 or 2011. The facility will expire on April 30, 2015, unless it terminates earlier upon election by the borrowers or due to the acceleration or certain refinancings of Six Flags’ secured credit facility.
     Because the Six Flags Guarantee existed prior to December 31, 2002 and no modifications to the arrangements have been made since the date the guarantee came into existence, the Company is required to continue to account for the Guaranteed Obligations as a contingent liability. Based on its evaluation of the current facts and circumstances surrounding the Guaranteed Obligations and the Subordinated Indemnity Agreement, the Company is unable to predict the loss, if any, that may be incurred under these Guaranteed Obligations and no liability for the arrangements has been recognized at June

30, 2011. Because of the specific circumstances surrounding the arrangements and the fact that no active or observable market exists for this type of financial guarantee, the Company is unable to determine a current fair value for the Guaranteed Obligations and related Subordinated Indemnity Agreement.
Contingencies
     In the ordinary course of business, the Company and its subsidiaries are defendants in or parties to various legal claims, actions and proceedings. These claims, actions and proceedings are at varying stages of investigation, arbitration or adjudication, and involve a variety of areas of law.
     On October 8, 2004, certain heirs of Jerome Siegel, one of the creators of the “Superman” character, filed suit against the Company, DC Comics and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiffs’ complaint seeks an accounting and demands up to one-half of the profits made on Superman since the alleged April 16, 1999 termination by plaintiffs of Siegel’s grants of one-half of the rights to the Superman character to DC Comics’ predecessor-in-interest. Plaintiffs have also asserted various Lanham Act and unfair competition claims, alleging “wasting” of the Superman property by DC Comics, and the Company has filed counterclaims. On March 26, 2008, the court entered an order of summary judgment finding, among other things, that plaintiffs’ notices of termination were valid and that plaintiffs had thereby recaptured, as of April 16, 1999, their rights to a one-half interest in the Superman story material, as first published, but that the accounting for profits would not include profits attributable to foreign exploitation, republication of pre-termination works and trademark exploitation. On October 6, 2008, the court dismissed plaintiffs’ Lanham Act and “wasting” claims with prejudice, and subsequently determined that the remaining claims in the case will be subject to phased non-jury trials. On July 8, 2009, the court issued a decision in the first phase trial in favor of the defendants on the issue of whether the terms of various license agreements between DC Comics and Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc. were at fair market value or constituted “sweetheart deals.” On May 17, 2011, the court certified certain liability issues for interlocutory appeal and stayed proceedings pending that appeal.
     On October 22, 2004, the same Siegel heirs filed a related lawsuit against the same defendants, as well as Warner Communications Inc. and Warner Bros. Television Production Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiffs claim that Siegel was the sole creator of the character Superboy and, as such, DC Comics has had no right to create new Superboy works since the alleged October 17, 2004 termination by plaintiffs of Siegel’s grants of rights to the Superboy character to DC Comics’ predecessor-in-interest. This lawsuit seeks a declaration regarding the validity of the alleged termination and an injunction against future use of the Superboy character. On March 23, 2006, the court granted plaintiffs’ motion for partial summary judgment on termination, denied the Company’s motion for summary judgment and held that further proceedings are necessary to determine whether the Company’s Smallville television series may infringe on plaintiffs’ rights to the Superboy character. On July 27, 2007, upon the Company’s motion for reconsideration, the court reversed the bulk of its March 23, 2006 ruling, and requested additional briefing on certain issues, on which a decision remains pending.
     On May 14, 2010, DC Comics filed a related lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California against the heirs of Superman co-creator Joseph Shuster, the Siegel heirs, their attorney Marc Toberoff and certain companies that Mr. Toberoff controls. The lawsuit asserts a claim for declaratory relief concerning the validity and scope of the copyright termination notice served by the Shuster heirs, which, together with the termination notices served by the Siegel heirs described above, purports to preclude DC Comics from creating new Superman and/or Superboy works for distribution and sale in the United States after October 26, 2013. The lawsuit also seeks declaratory relief with respect to, inter alia, the validity of various agreements between Mr. Toberoff, his companies and the Shuster and Siegel heirs, and asserts claims for intentional interference by Mr. Toberoff with DC Comics’ contracts and prospective economic advantage with the Shuster and Siegel heirs, for which DC Comics seeks monetary damages. On September 3, 2010, DC Comics filed an amended complaint and on September 20, 2010, defendants filed motions to strike certain causes of action and dismiss the amended complaint under California and federal laws.
     On April 4, 2007, the National Labor Relations Board (“NLRB”) issued a complaint against CNN America Inc. (“CNN America”) and Team Video Services, LLC (“Team Video”). This administrative proceeding relates to CNN America’s December 2003 and January 2004 terminations of its contractual relationships with Team Video, under which Team Video had provided electronic newsgathering services in Washington, DC and New York, NY. The National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians, under which Team Video’s employees were unionized, initially filed charges of unfair labor practices with the NLRB in February 2004, alleging that CNN America and Team Video were joint employers,

32


Table of Contents

TIME WARNER INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
that CNN America was a successor employer to Team Video, and/or that CNN America discriminated in its hiring practices to avoid becoming a successor employer or due to specific individuals’ union affiliation or activities. The NLRB complaint seeks, among other things, the reinstatement of certain union members and monetary damages. On November 19, 2008, the presiding NLRB Administrative Law Judge issued a non-binding recommended decision, finding CNN America liable. On February 17, 2009, CNN America filed exceptions to this decision with the NLRB.
     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 and several other programming content providers (collectively, the “programmer defendants”) as well as cable and satellite providers (collectively, the “distributor defendants”), alleging violations of the federal antitrust laws. 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. In an order dated October 15, 2009, the court dismissed the third amended complaint with prejudice. On October 30, 2009, plaintiffs filed a notice of appeal to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. On June 3, 2011, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed the district court’s dismissal of the lawsuit, and, on July 7, 2011, plaintiffs filed a petition for a rehearing en banc with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
     On March 10, 2009, Anderson News L.L.C. and Anderson Services L.L.C. (collectively, “Anderson News”) filed an antitrust lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against several magazine publishers, distributors and wholesalers, including Time Inc. and one of its subsidiaries, Time/Warner Retail Sales & Marketing, Inc. Plaintiffs allege that defendants violated Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act by engaging in an antitrust conspiracy against Anderson News, as well as other related state law claims. Plaintiffs are seeking unspecified monetary damages. On August 2, 2010, the court granted defendants’ motions to dismiss the complaint with prejudice and on, October 25, 2010, the court denied Anderson News’ motion for reconsideration of that dismissal. On November 8, 2010, Anderson News filed a notice of appeal with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
     On March 10, 2011, Charlie Sheen and 9th Step Productions (collectively, “Sheen”) filed a lawsuit in the Superior Court for the County of Los Angeles against WB Studio Enterprises, Inc. (“WB Studios”), a subsidiary of Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc., and Chuck Lorre and Chuck Lorre Productions, the co-creator and co-executive producer of the television series Two and a Half Men. Plaintiffs’ complaint asserts several causes of action in connection with WB Studios’ termination of Sheen’s contract for the Two and a Half Men series, including breach of contract claims and intentional interference tort claims. Plaintiffs’ complaint seeks monetary damages of $100 million, among other damages in unspecified amounts. WB Studios, through its division Warner Bros. Television, is seeking to arbitrate both the plaintiffs’ claims and WB Studios’ claims before JAMS, Inc. (“JAMS”), and on March 7, 2011 JAMS commenced arbitration. On June 15, 2011, the court denied Sheen’s motion to stay arbitration, granted WB Studios’ motion to refer the determination of arbitrability of all but one of Sheen’s claims to the arbitrator, and stayed the one claim pending final determination of the matters referred to the arbitrator. On July 18, 2011, the arbitrator confirmed the arbitrability of the claims referred to the arbitrator.
     The Company intends to defend against or prosecute, as applicable, the matters described above vigorously.
     The Company establishes an accrued liability for legal claims when the Company determines that a loss is both probable and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Once established, accruals are adjusted from time to time, as appropriate, in light of additional information. The amount of any loss ultimately incurred in relation to matters for which an accrual has been established may be higher or lower than the amounts accrued for such matters.
     For matters disclosed above for which a loss is probable or reasonably possible, whether in excess of an accrued liability or where there is no accrued liability, the Company has estimated a range of possible loss. The Company believes the estimate of the aggregate range of possible loss in excess of accrued liabilities for such matters is between $0 and $130 million at June 30, 2011. The estimated aggregate range of possible loss is subject to significant judgment and a variety of assumptions. The matters represented in the estimated aggregate range of possible loss will change from time to time and actual results may vary significantly from the current estimate.
     In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation and claims, the Company often cannot predict what the eventual outcome of the pending matters will be, what the timing of the ultimate resolution of these matters will

33


Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (Continued)
be, or what the eventual loss, fines or penalties related to each pending matter may be. An adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could be material to the Company’s results of operations or cash flows for any particular reporting period.
Income Tax Uncertainties
     During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded net incremental income tax reserves of approximately $71 million. Of the $71 million additional income tax reserves, approximately $33 million would affect the Company’s effective tax rate if reversed. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded interest reserves related to the income tax reserves of approximately $33 million.
     In the Company’s judgment, uncertainties related to certain tax matters are reasonably possible of being resolved during the next twelve months. The effect of such resolution, which could vary based on the final terms and timing of actual settlements with taxing authorities, is estimated to be a reduction of recorded unrecognized tax benefits ranging from $0 to $32 million, most of which would affect the Company’s effective tax rate.
13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
     The Company has entered into certain transactions in the ordinary course of business with unconsolidated investees accounted for under the equity method of accounting. These transactions have been executed on terms comparable to the terms of transactions with unrelated third parties and primarily include the licensing of broadcast rights to The CW broadcast network for film and television product by the Filmed Entertainment segment and the licensing of rights to carry cable television programming provided by the Networks segment. Revenues from transactions with related parties were $107 million and $86 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and expenses from transactions with related parties were $15 million and $16 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, such revenues were $214 million and $173 million, respectively, and such expenses were $29 million and $33 million, respectively.

Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements
     The Company’s collaborative arrangements primarily relate to arrangements entered into with third parties to jointly finance and distribute theatrical productions (“co-financing arrangements”) and the arrangement entered into with CBS Broadcasting, Inc. (“CBS”) and The National Collegiate Athletic Association (the “NCAA”) that provides Turner and CBS with exclusive television, Internet and wireless rights to the NCAA Division I Men’s Basketball Championship events (the “NCAA Tournament”) in the United States and its territories and possessions from 2011 through 2024.
     During the first quarter of 2011, Turner and CBS began jointly producing and distributing the NCAA Tournament and related programming. The events were televised on Turner’s TNT, TBS and truTV networks and on the CBS network. The aggregate programming rights fee of approximately $10.8 billion, which is being shared equally by Turner and CBS, is being paid by Turner to the NCAA over the 14-year term of the agreement, and Turner and CBS are equally sharing advertising and sponsorship revenues and production costs. In the event, however, that the cash paid for the programming rights and production costs, in any given year, exceeds advertising and sponsorship revenues, CBS’s share of such shortfall is limited to specified annual amounts (the “loss cap”), ranging from approximately $90 million to $30 million. The amount incurred by the Company pursuant to the loss cap during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was not significant.
     In accounting for this arrangement, the Company recorded advertising revenue for the advertisements aired on the Turner networks. In addition, the Company amortized Turner’s share of the rights fee based on the ratio of current period advertising revenue to its estimate of total advertising revenue over the term of the agreement.
     For the Company’s collaborative arrangements related to arrangements entered into with third parties to jointly finance and distribute theatrical productions, net participation costs of $111 million and $123 million were recorded in costs of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $198 million and $210 million were recorded in costs of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
CONDENSED CONSOLIDATING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Overview
     Set forth below are condensed consolidating financial statements presenting the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of (i) Time Warner Inc. (the “Parent Company”), (ii) Historic TW Inc. (in its own capacity and as successor by merger to Time Warner Companies, Inc.), Home Box Office, Inc., and Turner Broadcasting System, Inc., each a wholly owned subsidiary of the Parent Company (collectively, the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”), on a combined basis, (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 Inc. on a consolidated basis. The Guarantor Subsidiaries, fully and unconditionally, jointly and severally, guarantee the securities issued under the indentures on an unsecured basis.
     There are no legal or regulatory restrictions on the Parent Company’s ability to obtain funds from any of its wholly owned 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 Company’s interests in the Guarantor Subsidiaries and (ii) the Guarantor Subsidiaries’ interests in the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, where applicable, even though all such subsidiaries meet the requirements to be consolidated under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. 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 Parent Company’s accounting bases in all subsidiaries, including goodwill and identified intangible assets, have been “pushed down” to the applicable subsidiaries. Corporate overhead expenses have been reflected as expenses of the Parent Company and have not been allocated to the Guarantor Subsidiaries or the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries. Interest income (expense) is determined based on third-party debt and the relevant intercompany amounts within the respective legal entity.
     All direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries are included in Time Warner Inc.’s consolidated U.S. tax return. In the condensed consolidating financial statements, tax expense has been allocated based on each such subsidiary’s relative pretax income to the consolidated pretax income. With respect to the use of certain consolidated tax attributes (principally operating and capital loss carryforwards), such benefits have been allocated to the respective subsidiary that generated the taxable income permitting such use (i.e., pro-rata based on where the income was generated). For example, to the extent a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary generated a gain on the sale of a business for which the Parent Company utilized tax attributes to offset such gain, the tax attribute benefit would be allocated to that Non-Guarantor Subsidiary. Deferred taxes of the Parent Company, the Guarantor Subsidiaries and the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries have been allocated based upon the temporary differences between the carrying amounts of the respective assets and liabilities of the applicable entities.
     Certain transfers of cash between subsidiaries and their parent companies and intercompany dividends are reflected as cash flows from investing and financing activities in the accompanying condensed consolidating statements of cash flows. All other intercompany activity is reflected in cash flows from operations.
     Management believes that the allocations and adjustments noted above are reasonable. However, such allocations and adjustments may not be indicative of the actual amounts that would have been incurred had the Parent, Guarantor and Non-Guarantor entities operated independently.

Part II. Other Information
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
     The following information supplements and amends the disclosure set forth in Part I, Item 3. Legal Proceedings, in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 (the “2010 Form 10-K”) and in Part II, Item 1. Legal Proceedings, in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 (the “March 2011 Form 10-Q”).
     Reference is made to the lawsuit filed by certain heirs of Jerome Siegel described on page 28 of the 2010 Form 10-K. On May 17, 2011, the court certified certain liability issues for interlocutory appeal and stayed proceedings pending that appeal.
     Reference is made to the lawsuit filed against the Company and several other programming content providers as well as cable and satellite providers described on page 28 of the 2010 Form 10-K. On June 3, 2011, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed the district court’s dismissal of the lawsuit, and, on July 7, 2011, plaintiffs filed a petition for a rehearing en banc with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
     Reference is made to the lawsuit filed by Charlie Sheen and 9th Step Productions (collectively, “Sheen”) described on page 40 of the March 2011 Form 10-Q. On June 15, 2011, the court denied Sheen’s motion to stay arbitration, granted WB Studio Enterprises, Inc.’s motion to refer the determination of arbitrability of all but one of Sheen’s claims to the arbitrator, and stayed the one claim pending final determination of the matters referred to the arbitrator. On July 18, 2011, the arbitrator confirmed the arbitrability of the claims referred to the arbitrator.

(1)  
The calculation of the average price paid per share and the approximate dollar value of shares that may yet be purchased under the plans or programs do not give effect to any fees, commissions or other costs associated with the share repurchases.
(2)  
On February 2, 2011, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had authorized an increase to $5.0 billion in share repurchases beginning January 1, 2011, from the approximately $1.0 billion remaining at December 31, 2010 under the prior $3.0 billion authorization. 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. In the past, the Company has repurchased shares of Common Stock pursuant to trading programs under Rule 10b5-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and it may repurchase shares of Common Stock under such trading programs in the future.

Item 5. Other Information.
Frequency of Holding an Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation
     On May 25, 2011, the Company filed a current report on Form 8-K dated May 20, 2011 to report the voting results from its Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 20, 2011 (the “Annual Meeting”). For the advisory vote on the frequency of holding an advisory vote on executive compensation, the Company reported that 274,181,232 shares were voted for every three years, 2,031,540 shares were voted for every two years, 594,535,323 shares were voted for every year, and there were 5,463,902 abstentions and 75,110,340 broker non-votes.
     At a meeting on July 27, 2011, the Company’s Board of Directors discussed the appropriate frequency for holding advisory votes on executive compensation, taking into consideration the voting results on this matter at the Annual Meeting, and decided that the Company will hold an advisory vote on executive compensation on an annual basis.
Amended and Restated Employment Agreement for John K. Martin, Jr.
     On July 29, 2011, the Company and John K. Martin, Jr., Chief Financial and Administrative Officer, entered into an amended and restated employment agreement, effective as of January 1, 2011 (the "Employment Agreement"), which supersedes his prior employment agreement. The terms of the Employment Agreement are substantially the same as those in the prior agreement except as described in this report.
     The Employment Agreement provides for increases in Mr. Martin’s compensation as follows: (i) annual base salary of $1.6 million (previously $1.5 million), effective as of January 1, 2011, (ii) annual bonus target of 300% of base salary (previously $3.75 million), and (iii) target annual long-term incentive compensation of $4.3 million beginning in 2012 (previously $3.25 million).
     The Employment Agreement reduces the severance period that would apply if Mr. Martin’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause following the end of the term on December 31, 2013 from two years to one year.
     The Employment Agreement reflects the additional responsibilities Mr. Martin assumed as of January 1, 2011 when he was appointed Time Warner’s Chief Financial and Administrative Officer (he was previously the Chief Financial Officer), including responsibilities for the Company’s shared services initiatives.
