("TWE"), TW NY Cable Holding Inc. ("TWNYCH"), certain other subsidiaries of the Company and The Bank of New York, as Trustee, entered into the Tenth Supplemental Indenture to the Indenture, dated as of April 30, 1992, among TWE, TWC, certain other subsidiaries of the Company and The Bank of New York, as Trustee (as amended through October 18, 2006, the "TWE Indenture"). A total of $3.2 billion aggregate principal amount of debt securities are currently outstanding under the TWE Indenture (collectively, the "TWE Bonds"). Pursuant to the Tenth Supplemental Indenture, TWNYCH fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed the payment of principal and interest on the TWE Bonds. In addition, pursuant to the Ninth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2004, among TWE, TWC, certain other subsidiaries of the Company and The Bank of New York, as Trustee, Time Warner NY Cable LLC ("TWNY"), a subsidiary of TWC, agreed to waive, for so long as it remained a general partner of TWE, the benefit of certain provisions in the TWE Indenture that provided that it would not have any liability for the TWE Bonds as a general partner of TWE (the "TWNY Waiver"). On October 18, 2006, TWNY contributed all of its general partnership interests in TWE to TWE GP Holdings LLC, its wholly owned subsidiary, and as a result, the TWNY Waiver, by its terms, ceased to be in effect. TWC Credit Facilities On October 18, 2006, TWNYCH executed and delivered unconditional guaranties of the obligations of TWC under TWC's $6.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility and two $4.0 billion term loan facilities (collectively, the "TWC Credit Facilities") in substantially the form of the existing primary guaranties attached thereto. In addition, contemporaneously with the termination of the TWNY Waiver, TWNY was released from its guaranties of the obligations of TWC under the TWC Credit Facilities in accordance with the terms of the TWC Credit Facilities. The Company expects that TWC will implement the same guaranty structure with respect to its commercial paper program. Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
