                           4.1      Tender Offers and Exchange Offers. For a
period of three (3) years following the Initial Offering Date, AOLTW shall not

first give written notice to the Company of the approximate amount of debt
securities it intends to purchase and the general time period within which it

than ninety (90) days (the "Specified Period"). The Company shall have five (5)
Business Days following receipt of such notice to indicate its good faith
intention to purchase such amount of debt securities within the Specified

Subsidiaries (other than the Company and its Subsidiaries) not to, purchase any
such debt securities within the Specified Period and shall thereafter comply

intention to purchase such debt securities, AOLTW shall be entitled to proceed
with its purchase of debt securities for the duration of the Specified Period.

                           4.4      Closing Date Balance Sheet. On or prior to
the date that is 120 days following the Closing Date (as defined in the

                  2.       Trust Disposition Rights. Following the Transfer
Date, if any Trust I Partner (any such Trust I Partner, a "Selling Partner")
wishes to Dispose of all or any portion of its Partnership Interest in

Right (as defined in Section 4(a)); provided that (a) no Selling Partner shall
be entitled to exercise any Appraisal Right or Sale Right in respect of any
Offered Interest (as defined below) while it is pursuing its Sale Right or
Appraisal Right, respectively, in respect of such Offered Interest or its
Appraisal Right or Sale Right in respect of any other Offered Interest and (b)

Selling Partner shall have the right (the "Appraisal Right") to Dispose of all
or any portion of its Partnership Interest (the "Offered Interest") pursuant to
this Section 3 by delivery of written notice (the "Appraisal Notice") to AOLTW

after receipt of the Appraisal Notice (the "AOLTW Option Period"), AOLTW shall
have the right (the "AOLTW Option") but not the obligation to elect to purchase

Purchase Price") equal to (x) the percentage of the Offered Interest AOLTW
proposes to purchase multiplied by (y) the Offered Interest FMV (as defined in
Section 3(d) below). The AOLTW Option shall be exercisable by giving written
notice (the "AOLTW Exercise Notice") of the exercise thereof, prior to the
expiration of the AOLTW Option Period, to the Selling Partner, with a copy to
the Company, which notice shall state the portion of the Offered Interest to be
purchased by AOLTW. Upon delivery of the AOLTW Exercise Notice, AOLTW shall be
obligated to purchase, and the Selling Partner shall be obligated to sell, the
Offered Interest specified in the AOLTW Exercise Notice for the AOLTW Purchase
Price. The failure of AOLTW to respond within the AOLTW Option Period shall be
deemed to be an election by AOLTW not to purchase any of the Offered Interest
and shall be a waiver of the AOLTW Option; provided that AOLTW may elect not to
purchase the Offered Interest and to waive its rights under this Section 3(b)
prior to the expiration of the AOLTW Option Period by giving written notice to
the Selling Partner, with a copy to the Company.

                                    (c)      If AOLTW does not elect to purchase
all of the Offered Interest, then the Company shall be obligated to purchase,
and the Selling Partner shall be obligated to sell, the remaining portion of the
Offered Interest for a purchase price (the "Company Purchase Price") equal to
(x) the percentage of the Offered Interest not purchased by AOLTW multiplied by
(y) the Offered Interest FMV.

                                                                               6

                                    (d)      The "Offered Interest FMV" shall be
determined as follows:

                                             (i)      Upon delivery of an
Appraisal Notice, the Selling Partner shall, by written notice to the Company,
designate an Investment Banking Firm to prepare a valuation of the Offered
Interest. Within five (5) days of delivery of the Appraisal Notice, the Company
shall, by written notice to the Selling Partner, designate a second Investment
Banking Firm to prepare a valuation of the Offered Interest; provided that if
the Company fails to designate an Investment Banking Firm within such 5-day
period, the Investment Banking Firm selected by the Selling Partner shall
determine the Offered Interest FMV, without regard to the remainder of this
Section 3(d), in accordance with the guidelines set forth on Exhibit A.

                                             (ii)     Within ten (10) days
following the designation by the Company of the second Investment Banking Firm
pursuant to Section 3(d)(i), if such second Investment Banking Firm has been so
designated, the two Investment Banking Firms shall select a third Investment
Banking Firm and the Selling Partner and the Company shall engage such third
Investment Banking Firm on reasonable and customary terms. If the two Investment
Banking Firms are unable to agree on the identity of a third Investment Banking
Firm within such 10-day period, or the Selling Partner and the Company are
unable to agree as to the terms of engagement for such firm within such period,
then either the Selling Partner or the Company may refer the matter to the
American Arbitration Association (the "AAA") which shall select such third
Investment Banking Firm, and establish the terms of engagement of such firm,
within fifteen (15) days following such request; provided that all parties shall
be given notice of such referral and afforded the opportunity to participate in
any presentations to be made to the AAA. The firm selected by the AAA shall not
derive a material portion of its revenues from the Selling Partner, the Company
or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have experience in valuing
companies engaged in the same business then engaged in by TWE and shall be
engaged on reasonable and customary terms.

                                             (iii)    No later than thirty (30)
days following the delivery of the Appraisal Notice, the Investment Banking Firm
selected by the Selling Partner and the Investment Banking Firm selected by the
Company shall simultaneously disclose to each other their respective
determinations of the fair market value of the Offered Interest, each of which
shall be prepared in accordance with the guidelines set forth in Exhibit A;
provided that if either Investment Banking Firm is not prepared to disclose its
valuation on such day, the valuation of the Investment Banking Firm that is so
prepared shall be the Offered Interest FMV. If the amount of the higher of the
values determined by the two Investment Banking Firms is no more than 110% of
the lower value, such values will be averaged and such average shall be the
Offered Interest FMV. If the amount of the higher of the values determined by
the two Investment Banking Firms is more than 110% of the lower value, then on a
day no later than forty (40) days after the delivery of the Appraisal Notice,
each of the two Investment Banking Firms will make a presentation to the third
Investment Banking Firm, regarding the methodology and conclusions used by it in
arriving at its valuation. Each party and such party's

<PAGE>

                                                                               7

Investment Banking Firm shall be entitled to attend the presentation of the
other party's Investment Banking Firm. Within five (5) days following the
presentations, the third Investment Banking Firm shall determine which valuation
more accurately reflects the value of the Offered Interest, and such valuation
shall be the Offered Interest FMV and shall be final and binding upon the
parties.

                                             (iv)     Each party will pay the
fees and expenses of the Investment Banking Firm it selects and 50% of the fees
and expenses of the third Investment Banking Firm. If the parties are unable to
agree on the fees payable to the third Investment Banking Firm, the fees shall
be set by the AAA and the parties shall each be liable for 50% of such fees.

                                    (e)      The Company will supply, subject to
the recipients entering into customary confidentiality agreements, the following
information regarding TWE and the Company to the Investment Banking Firms and to
the Selling Partner within fifteen (15) days of delivery of the Appraisal Notice
(except that information to be provided pursuant to a request under "(4)" below
shall be provided as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of such
request): (1) 3 years of historical financial statements, (2) current year
interim quarterly financial statements, (3) certain operating statistics (e.g.
subscribers, homes passed, rebuild status) and (4) other due diligence items
that any appraiser may reasonably request (but, with respect to (4), only to the
extent such information exists or is readily available within the relevant time
period). In addition to such information, if, upon the delivery of an Appraisal
Notice, the Selling Partner elects in writing to have the Company prepare
projections for the Company and TWE for the then-current fiscal year and one (1)
prospective year, then the Company shall have sixty (60) days to deliver such
projections to the Investment Banking Firms and to the Selling Partner and the
30-day and 40-day time periods set forth in Section 3(d)(iii) shall be adjusted
to 75-day and 85-day periods, respectively; provided that unless the Selling
Partner so elects to have the Company prepare projections for the Company and
TWE as described in this sentence, then none of the Investment Banking Firms
shall utilize projections in determining the value of the Offered Interest,
other than projections that have previously been made available (by the Company,
analysts or otherwise) to the general public (to the extent that such
projections are relevant). The Company shall make its executive officers
available for due diligence sessions, as reasonably requested.

                                    (f)      The consummation of any purchase of
the Offered Interest by AOLTW and/or the Company pursuant to this Section 3
shall be held at a single closing at the executive office of the Company at
11:00 a.m., local time, on a Business Day within 30 days following the
determination of the Offered Interest FMV pursuant to Section 3(d) (upon at
least five (5) days' notice to the Selling Partner); provided that such period
shall be extended for 90 additional days, or such shorter period of time, as
shall be necessary in order to obtain requisite governmental or regulatory
approvals with respect to such transaction (which the parties shall use their
respective commercially reasonable efforts to obtain as promptly as
practicable), or as provided in Section 5(a); and provided further, that such
closing may be held at such other time and place as the parties to the
transaction may agree. At such closing, AOLTW and/or the

                                                                               8

Company shall, severally (with respect to itself) and not jointly, pay to the
Selling Partner the AOLTW Purchase Price and/or the Company Purchase Price, as
applicable, in respect of the portion of the Offered Interest to be purchased by
such party in any combination of (x) cash, which shall be payable by wire
transfer of immediately available funds, and (y) validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable shares of AOLTW Common Stock (in the case of the AOLTW Purchase
Price) or Time Warner Cable Common Stock (in the case of the Company Purchase
Price) (the fair market value of which will be determined pursuant to Section 5
below) pursuant to such instruments as may be reasonably necessary to deliver
the AOLTW Common Stock or Time Warner Cable Common Stock, as applicable, and in
appropriate form for transfer, free and clear of any lien or other encumbrance,
and the Selling Partner shall, pursuant to such instruments as may be reasonably
necessary, deliver to AOLTW and/or the Company, as applicable, the Offered
Interest to be sold at such closing, in appropriate form for transfer, free and
clear of any lien or other encumbrance.

                  4.       Sale Right.

                                    (a)      Following the Transfer Date, the
Selling Partner shall have the right (the "Sale Right") to Dispose of all or any
portion of its Offered Interest to any Person pursuant to this Section 4, so
long as the Selling Partner first complies with clauses (b) through (h) below.

                                    (b)      The Selling Partner shall give
written notice (the "Sale Notice") to AOLTW and the Company (it being understood
that no such notice may be delivered prior to the Transfer Date), which Sale
Notice shall state (i) the name of the Person (the "Prospective Purchaser") to
whom the Selling Partner wishes to Dispose of such Offered Interest, and, if
such Prospective Purchaser is a Subsidiary of another Person, the name of the
Ultimate Parent (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) of such Prospective
Purchaser, neither of which Persons may be an Affiliate of, or otherwise acting
in concert to circumvent the provisions of this Section 4 with, the Selling
Partner (ii) the price to be paid for such Offered Interest (the "Sale Price"),
which price must be payable in cash upon consummation of such Disposition, (iii)
the date on which such Disposition is scheduled to occur and (iv) that the offer
of the Prospective Purchaser was made after the Transfer Date and has been
accepted by the Selling Partner subject to the rights of AOLTW and the Company
contained in this Agreement.

                                    (c)      The Sale Notice shall be
accompanied by a certificate of the Prospective Purchaser (and, if such
Prospective Purchaser is a Subsidiary of another Person, then also a certificate
of the Ultimate Parent of such Prospective Purchaser) stating that (i) its offer
to purchase the Offered Interest has been approved by its board of directors
(or, if such Person is not a corporation, the equivalent), (ii) the description
of its offer contained in the Sale Notice is complete and accurate in accordance
with the requirements of this Section 4, (iii) adequate financing arrangements
have been, or are reasonably expected to be, secured in respect of its offer,
(iv) its offer is reasonably capable of being consummated and that there are no
significant regulatory impediments to such consummation (other than any required
regulatory approval

                                                                               9

disclosed in the Sale Notice) and (v) it is aware of the rights of AOLTW and the
Company contained in this Agreement and that it is not an Affiliate of, or
otherwise acting in concert to circumvent the provisions of this Section 4 with,
the Selling Partner.

                                    (d)      For a period of fifteen (15) days
after receipt of the Sale Notice and the certificate required by Section 4(c)
above (the "AOLTW Matching Period"), AOLTW shall have the right (the "AOLTW
Matching Right") but not the obligation to elect to purchase all or any portion
of the Offered Interest at a purchase price (the "AOLTW Matching Price") equal
to (x) the percentage of the Offered Interest AOLTW proposes to purchase
multiplied by (y) the Sale Price. The AOLTW Matching Right shall be exercisable
by giving written notice (the "AOLTW Matching Notice") of the exercise thereof,
prior to the expiration of the AOLTW Matching Period, to the Selling Partner,
with a copy to the Company, which notice shall state the portion of the Offered
Interest to be purchased by AOLTW. Upon delivery of the AOLTW Matching Notice,
subject to Section 4(f) below, AOLTW shall be obligated to purchase, and the
Selling Partner shall be obligated to sell, the Offered Interest specified in
the AOLTW Matching Notice at the AOLTW Matching Price and upon the terms and
conditions set forth in the Sale Notice, except that AOLTW (or any Affiliate
thereof) shall be entitled to pay all or any portion of the AOLTW Matching Price
in shares of AOLTW Common Stock as provided in Section 5 below. The failure of
AOLTW to respond within the AOLTW Matching Period shall be deemed to be an
election by AOLTW not to purchase any of the Offered Interest and shall be a
waiver of the AOLTW Matching Right; provided that AOLTW may elect not to
purchase the Offered Interest and to waive its rights under this Section 4(d)
prior to the expiration of the AOLTW Matching Period by giving written notice to
the Selling Partner, with a copy to the Company.

                                    (e)      If AOLTW does not elect to purchase
all of the Offered Interest, then for a period of five (5) days after the
earlier to occur of (a) the expiration of the AOLTW Matching Period and (b) the
receipt of the AOLTW Matching Notice (or written notice from AOLTW of its waiver
of the AOLTW Matching Right) (the "Company Matching Period"), the Company shall
have the right (the "Company Matching Right") but not the obligation to elect to
purchase all but not less than all of the remaining Offered Interest at a
purchase price (the "Company Matching Price") equal to (x) the percentage of the
Offered Interest not purchased by AOLTW multiplied by (y) the Sale Price. The
Company Matching Right shall be exercisable by giving written notice (the
"Company Matching Notice") of the exercise thereof, prior to the expiration of
the Company Matching Period, to the Selling Partner. Upon delivery of the
Company Matching Notice, the Company shall be obligated to purchase, and the
Selling Partner shall be obligated to sell, all of such remaining Offered
Interest for the Company Matching Price and upon the terms and conditions set
forth in the Sale Notice, except that the Company (or any Affiliate thereof)
shall be entitled to pay all or any portion of the Company Matching Price in
shares of Time Warner Cable Common Stock as provided in Section 5 below. The
failure of the Company to respond within the Company Matching Period shall be
deemed to be an election by the Company not to purchase the remaining Offered
Interest and shall be deemed to be a waiver of the Company Matching Right;
provided that the Company may waive its rights under this Section 4(e) prior to
the

<PAGE>

                                                                              10

expiration of the Company Matching Period by giving written notice to the
Selling Partner.

                                    (f)      If AOLTW and the Company
(individually or in the aggregate) do not elect to purchase all of the Offered
Interest pursuant to Sections 4(d) and 4(e) above, the Selling Partner shall
have the right to Dispose of all but not less than all of the Offered Interest
to the Prospective Purchaser upon terms and conditions that are no more
favorable to the Prospective Purchaser with respect to the Offered Interest than
those contained in the Sale Notice; provided that such sale is bona fide and
made within 45 days after the date of the expiration of the Company Matching
Period (as such may be extended for 90 additional days, or such shorter period
of time, as shall be necessary in order to obtain requisite governmental or
regulatory approvals with respect to such transaction). Upon closing of any such
Disposition, the Prospective Purchaser shall succeed to all of the rights and be
subject to all of the obligations of the Selling Partner under this Agreement
(including, without limitation, Sections 3 and 4 hereof) and the Partnership
Agreement.

                                    (g)      The consummation of any purchase of
the Offered Interest by AOLTW and/or the Company pursuant to this Section 4
shall be held at a single closing at the executive office of the Company at
11:00 a.m., local time, on a Business Day within 30 days following the delivery
of the Company Matching Notice (upon at least five (5) days' notice to the
Selling Partner); provided that such period shall be extended for 90 additional
days, or such shorter period of time, as shall be necessary in order to obtain
requisite governmental or regulatory approvals with respect to such transaction
(which the parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain as promptly as practicable), or as provided in Section 5(a); and
provided, further, that such closing may be held at such other time and place as
the parties to the transaction may agree. At such closing, AOLTW and/or the
Company shall, severally (with respect to itself) and not jointly, pay to the
Selling Partner the AOLTW Matching Price and/or the Company Matching Price in
respect of the portion of the Offered Interest to be purchased by such party in
any combination of (x) cash, which shall be payable by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, and (y) validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable shares of AOLTW Common Stock (in the case of the AOLTW Matching
Price) or Time Warner Cable Common Stock (in the case of the Company Matching
Price) (the fair market value of which will be determined pursuant to Section 5
below) pursuant to such instruments as may be reasonably necessary to deliver
the AOLTW Common Stock or Time Warner Cable Common Stock, as applicable, and in
appropriate form for transfer, free and clear of any lien or other encumbrance,
and the Selling Partner shall, pursuant to such instruments as may be reasonably
necessary, deliver to AOLTW and/or the Company, as applicable, the Offered
Interest to be sold at such closing, in appropriate form for transfer, free and
clear of any lien or other encumbrance.

                                    (h)      If the Selling Partner does not
complete the sale of all of the Offered Interest to (x) a Prospective Purchaser
in accordance with the time period specified in Section 4(f) above (or
affirmatively waives the right to complete such sale, in writing, prior to the
expiration of such period) or (y) AOLTW and/or the

                                                                              11

Company in the time period specified in Section 4(g) above (other than as a
result of a breach by AOLTW or the Company of such party's obligations under
this Section 4), then in each case, the provisions of this Section 4 shall again
be applicable and the Selling Partner shall again be permitted to elect to
exercise either its Appraisal Right or its Sale Right with respect to any
Offered Interest, as provided in Section 2; provided, that in the case of a
failure to complete a sale to a Prospective Purchaser (other than as a result of
a breach by AOLTW or the Company of such party's obligations under this Section
4), such Selling Partner shall not be entitled to exercise its Sale Right or
Appraisal Right until sixty (60) days after the expiration of the 45-day period
referred to in Section 4(f) (or such longer period to which such 45-day period
has been extended pursuant to Section 4(f)); provided, further, that if the
Selling Partner has waived its right to complete the sale to a Prospective
Purchaser pursuant to clause (x) above, such 60-day period shall commence on the
date of such waiver.

                  5.       Provisions Relating to Common Stock.

                                    (a)      If any portion of the purchase
price payable by AOLTW or the Company pursuant to Section 3 or 4 is to be paid
in shares of AOLTW Common Stock or Time Warner Cable Common Stock, as
applicable, then (x) the fair market value of such shares shall be deemed to be
equal to the average (rounded to the nearest 1/10,000) of the Trading Values (as
defined below) of a share of AOLTW Common Stock or Time Warner Cable Common
Stock, as applicable, for each of the fifteen (15) consecutive Trading Days
ending two (2) Trading Days prior to the applicable closing date, (y) any shares
of Time Warner Cable Common Stock received by the Selling Partner shall, after
they are issued to such Selling Partner, be deemed to be "Registrable
Securities" held by TWE Holdings II Trust, a Delaware statutory trust ("Trust
II") (or its permitted transferee), under the Registration Rights Agreement,
dated the date hereof, among the Company, AOLTW and Trust II (provided that, if
such Selling Partner is not then a party to such Agreement, such shares shall
only be deemed to be Registrable Securities if Trust II agrees to transfer all
or a portion of its right thereunder to such Selling Partner and such Selling
Partner agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of such agreement) and
(z) any shares of AOLTW Common Stock received by the Selling Partner shall,
after they are issued to such Selling Partner, have registration rights
substantially identical to the rights of Trust II (or its permitted transferee)
under the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 20, 2002, as
amended, between AOLTW and Trust II (as assignee of Comcast of Georgia, Inc.
(formerly named MediaOne of Colorado, Inc.), a Colorado corporation); provided
that promptly upon exercise by AOLTW of any right to use AOLTW Common Stock as a
portion of the purchase price pursuant to Section 3 or 4, AOLTW will use all
commercially reasonable efforts to have a "shelf" registration statement
declared effective as of the date the AOLTW Common Stock is delivered pursuant
hereto or as promptly thereafter as practicable. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, no shares of AOLTW Common Stock or Time Warner Cable
Common Stock, as applicable, may be delivered in full or partial satisfaction of
any purchase price payable pursuant to Section 3 or Section 4, (A) if shares of
such class are not then admitted for trading on the NYSE or for quotation on
NASDAQ or (B) if AOLTW and/or

the Company, as applicable, has not delivered to the Selling Partner written
notice (a "Stock Election Notice") setting forth (i) such party's election
(which election shall be irrevocable) to deliver such shares in full or partial
satisfaction of any such purchase price (which Stock Election Notice shall
specify what portion of the purchase price will be satisfied in shares) and (ii)
the closing date designated for the closing of such purchase, which closing date
(x) shall comply with the requirements of Section 3(f) or 4(g), as applicable
and (y) shall be no fewer than twenty (20) Trading Days subsequent to the date
of such Stock Election Notice; provided that if, as a result of events
subsequent to the delivery of the Stock Election Notice the number of Trading
Days between the date of delivery of a Stock Election Notice and the date of
closing set forth in such Stock Election Notice is fewer than twenty (20), such
closing date shall be extended to the extent necessary such that there are no
fewer than twenty (20) Trading Days between the date of such delivery and such
closing date.

                                    (b)      The parties hereto shall not, and
shall cause their respective Affiliates, agents and representatives not to,
engage in, announce an intention to engage in, or act in concert with any Person
to engage in, a Prohibited Activity.

                                    (c)      For the purposes of this Agreement,
(x) the term "Trading Value" means, with respect to any AOLTW Common Stock or
Time Warner Cable Common Stock on any given Trading Day, the volume weighted
trading price (rounded to the nearest 1/10,000) of such security on the NYSE or
NASDAQ, as applicable, as reported by Bloomberg Financial Markets (or such other
source as the Selling Partner and the Company shall agree) for that Trading Day,
and (y) the term "Trading Day" means any day on which shares of AOLTW Common
Stock or Time Warner Cable Common Stock, as applicable, are traded on the NYSE
or NASDAQ, as applicable.

exclusive jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts
therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the

court or that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has
been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or
proceeding may be served on any party hereto anywhere in the world, whether
within or without the jurisdiction of any such court.

                                    (j)      Severability. If any term,
provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable,
the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected,
impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the
transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner adverse to any
party hereto. Upon such a determination, the parties hereto shall negotiate in
good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the
parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner so that the transactions
contemplated hereby may be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest
extent possible.

                                    (k)      Specific Performance. The parties
hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this
Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the
parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to enforce
specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof in any federal
court located in the State of New York or any New York state court, in addition

desirable to carry out or to perform the provisions of this Agreement.

                                                                       EXHIBIT A

                              VALUATION GUIDELINES

(a)      Valuation of the Offered Interest will be based upon the fully
         distributed public market value of the common equity of TWE assuming
         TWE was a corporation and all such common equity was represented by a
         single class of common stock. Such valuation will be determined without
         regard to offering discounts or any discount in respect of liquidity,
         corporate structure (including, without limitation, the fact that TWE
         is a partnership and that the stake is a minority interest) or tax
         liability from any allocation of taxable income in respect of the
         Offered Interest, and will assume, notwithstanding any facts to the
         contrary, that TWE is not to be liquidated in the near future; provided
         that if TWE is in fact in the process of being liquidated or is to be
         liquidated in the near future, the valuation shall take into account
         any economic circumstances leading to such liquidation.

(b)      Any debt and preferred equity of TWE or any comparable company will be
         measured at book value for purposes of preparing the valuation.

(c)      The appraisers will rely on the current public trading values of a
         group of not more than 3 companies which are comparable to TWE
         (businesses engaged in the same business, with similar scale, credit
         quality and capital structures).

(d)      For purposes of determining a cable-only multiple, the value of the
         non-cable assets shall be determined as the amount reflected in the
         relevant company's publicly traded share price as a result of the
         ownership of such assets.

(e)      In calculating the value, the appraisers shall disregard any guarantees
         by TWE or its Subsidiaries of debt or other obligations of the Company
         or any of its Subsidiaries or by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries
         of debt or other obligations of TWE or its Subsidiaries.
