4 Recent Developments  On January 13, 2014, Charter presented its history of proposals directly to shareholders because Time Warner Cable (“TWC”) management and Board has failed to meaningfully engage on a combination of Charter and TWC  On January 14, in a presentation and conference call, Charter outlined its operating strategy, the merits of the combination for shareholders of both companies and the industry at large, and the related financial analysis of the value creation for shareholders in a combination  On January 13, TWC quickly posted a response to Charter’s proposal and on January 15 released several valuation slides, that exclude adjustments for growth or taxes and distort multiples of precedent transactions – the following pages outline those differences  On January 17, TWC announced that it will outline its operating plans on January 30 – 16 days after Charter publicly outlined its strategy for the combination. We believe the slow response should at best concern shareholders as to what if any strategy exists today, and could reflect yet another delay tactic for a consensual deal.  Charter is in contact with TWC shareholders. Our next steps will be determined by the level of support shareholders demonstrate for this combination at a price that benefits both set of shareholders, and recognizes the substantial ownership retained by TWC shareholders in the proposed combination.  The goal should be to complete a merger agreement now, which creates value for the shareholders of both companies relative to the status quo  TWC’s value to Charter is declining, driven by continued customer relationship and triple play subscriber losses and financing costs from further delays  Contrasted by Charter’s subscriber and financial performance that is expected to continue to improve, with accelerating growth in 2014

5 TWC’s Analysis of Charter’s Proposal Ignores Growth, Tax, and Continued Upside Public market investors and buyers alike ascribe higher multiples for higher growth  Time Warner Cable’s 2-year forward EBITDA CAGR of 3% (1) is approximately one-third of average growth of US cable precedent transactions  TWC’s residential revenue growth of 0.7% (incl. rate increases) in Q3 2013 is ~15% of both Charter and Comcast Cable  ~831K video subscriber losses in 2013, declining triple play and phone customers and lower Internet growth puts downward pressure on value Growth Matters Public market investors and buyers adjust for the value of tax assets when valuing companies  All recent precedent transactions benefited from significant tax assets to the buyer, and taxable sale for investors  Charter proposal is a premium to the average of all US cable precedents in last 5 years, on a tax-adjusted basis  In the Charter-TWC combination:  No tax step-up value created for NewCo  TWC shareholders receive 45% of Charter $10.3B of basis, 45% of Charter $7.8B loss carryforwards (2)  And TWC shareholders receive tax-free exchange of shares in NewCo  While we have not shown adjustments for the value of tax benefits Charter brings in a combination, in any all-cash, 100% taxable transaction, buyers and sellers have different views on multiples based on tax adjustments, as TWC itself has pointed out:  “But after you take into account the NOLs that we can utilize, which have an NPV of roughly $300 million, and take into account the $100 million or so of cash flow synergies that we can generate, we are talking about effective multiples that are actually favorable…And that is why we proceeded with the transaction.” – Rob Marcus, 9/21/2011 when speaking of TWC Insight acquisition Tax Assets Matter TWC management / Board may look at the Charter proposal as a full exit, but it is not a sale for TWC shareholders  Unlike all recent precedent transactions, TWC shareholders receive ~45% continued ownership in NewCo  Sharing in value of faster growth Charter today, turnaround of TWC performance and growth, operating cost synergies, and acceleration of Charter’s tax assets which when included, increases the effective multiple  Charter’s January 14, 2014 presentation outlines these value components, and shareholders can assess the real value per share and multiple of Charter’s proposal Combination vs. Full Sale The only real question is whether TWC shareholders prefer 86% of the undisturbed price in cash and 45% of NewCo, or the risk of a return to undisturbed valuation trends with a decelerating performance (1) Wall Street consensus (2) As of September 30, 2013, including Bresnan assets
