The terms and conditions of the Offers and the Consent Solicitations are set forth in an Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement (the Offer to Purchase ) and a related Consent and Letter of Transmittal. Time Warner's obligation to accept for purchase, based on the acceptance priority levels set forth in the column entitled Acceptance Priority Level in the table below, and pay for, Debentures that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn is limited to as many Debentures as Time Warner can purchase up to an aggregate purchase price for the Debentures subject to the Offers (including principal and premium, but excluding accrued interest) of no more than $6,000,000,000 (the Maximum Purchase Price ).
Other than the extensions described above, all other terms and conditions of the Offers and Consent Solicitations, including, without limitation, the Withdrawal Deadline, the Price Determination Date, the Expiration Date and the Final Settlement Date (each as defined below) remain unchanged. The applicable Total Consideration for each Series of Debentures, as described below, will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase at 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on December 18, 2017 (such time and date, as the same may be extended with respect to one or more Series of Debentures, the Price Determination Date ).

The deadline to validly withdraw tenders of Debentures and revoke Consents expired at 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on December 15, 2017 (the Withdrawal Deadline ).
