ITEM 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

At 5:57 p.m. Eastern time, on June 14, 2018, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 22, 2016 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), among Time Warner Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Time Warner”), AT&T Inc., a Delaware corporation (“AT&T”), West Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T (“Corporate Merger Sub”), and West Merger Sub II, LLC (“LLC Merger Sub”), a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T (now known as Time Warner LLC), Corporate Merger Sub merged with and into Time Warner, with Time Warner continuing as the surviving entity and as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T (the “First Merger”). Immediately thereafter, Time Warner merged with and into LLC Merger Sub, with LLC Merger Sub being renamed Time Warner LLC and continuing as the surviving entity and as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of AT&T (together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”).

At the effective time of the First Merger (the “Effective Time”), each outstanding share of Time Warner common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Time Warner Common Stock”), was converted into the right to receive 1.437 shares (the “Exchange Ratio”) of AT&T common stock, par value $1.00 per share (“AT&T Common Stock”), plus $53.75 in cash. AT&T issued approximately 1,185,300,105 shares of AT&T Common Stock to former holders of Time Warner Common Stock, inclusive of 50,194,565 shares to satisfy outstanding options. Each outstanding option to purchase shares of Time Warner Common Stock was converted into an option to acquire a number of shares of AT&T Common Stock on the same terms and conditions as were applicable under such option award immediately prior to the First Merger, except that the exercise price and the number of shares of AT&T Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such option award were adjusted based on the option exchange ratio determined under a formula in the Merger Agreement, which yields approximately 3.0757. Each Time Warner restricted stock unit award, other than a restricted stock unit award held by a non-employee director of Time Warner, was converted, on the same general terms and conditions as were applicable under such restricted stock unit award immediately prior to the First Merger, into the right to receive a cash amount equal to $53.75 multiplied by the number of shares of Time Warner Common Stock underlying such restricted stock unit award, plus any accrued and unpaid retained distributions, in each case, without interest, and an AT&T restricted stock unit award covering a number of shares of AT&T Common Stock equal to the number of shares of Time Warner Common Stock underlying such restricted stock unit award multiplied by the Exchange Ratio. Each restricted stock unit award held by a non-employee director of Time Warner and each Time Warner performance stock unit vested and was cancelled in exchange for the merger consideration multiplied by the number of shares of Time Warner Common Stock underlying such restricted stock unit award or performance stock unit (determined after taking into account the satisfaction of any applicable performance conditions), plus any accrued and unpaid retained distributions, in each case, without interest and less applicable tax withholdings.

Based on the closing price of $32.52 per share of AT&T Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange on June 14, 2018, the aggregate implied value of the consideration paid to former holders of Time Warner Common Stock in connection with the Mergers was approximately $81.0 billion, including approximately $38.5 billion in AT&T Common Stock and approximately $42.5 billion in cash.

The Time Warner Common Stock, which traded under the symbol “TWX,” will no longer trade on, and is being delisted from, the New York Stock Exchange. AT&T will include the operating results of Time Warner beginning with June 15, 2018 business.

The foregoing description of the Mergers contained in this Item 2.01 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

ITEM 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

As of June 14, 2018, AT&T became the parent entity of a group of companies, with debt issued by Time Warner in aggregate principal amounts of $16.408 billion and €700 million (the “Time Warner Notes and Debentures”) and debt issued by Historic TW Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Time Warner (“Historic TW”), in an aggregate principal amount of $1.770 billion (the “Historic TW Debentures”).

In connection with the consummation of the Mergers, on June 14, 2018, Time Warner terminated the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of January 19, 2011, as amended from time to time (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), among Time Warner and Time Warner International Finance Limited, as borrowers, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (“Citibank”). As a result of the termination of the Revolving Credit Agreement, Time Warner will not issue any more commercial paper and will terminate its commercial paper program. As of June 14, 2018, Time Warner had approximately $1.1 billion of commercial paper outstanding. All of the outstanding commercial paper matures within the next 90 days.

Time Warner previously entered into a $2.0 billion senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility pursuant to a Credit Agreement, dated as of December 4, 2017, as amended from time to time (the “Credit Facility”), among Time Warner, as borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Citibank, as administrative agent. The $2.0 billion under the Credit Facility will remain outstanding for up to 60 days following the closing of the Mergers.

In connection with the consummation of the Mergers and in response to a request from the Antitrust Division of the U.S. Department of Justice, AT&T confirmed its current plans for operating Turner Networks after the closing of the Mergers. In this confirmation, which expires, at the latest, on February 28, 2019, AT&T indicated that AT&T will manage the Turner networks as part of a separate business unit, distinct from the operations of AT&T Communications. AT&T Communications will have no role in setting, and will not consult with Turner regarding, Turner’s prices or other terms to unaffiliated distributors. Target compensation levels and benefits for Turner personnel will remain largely unchanged, as will the number of Turner employees. AT&T will implement a firewall between Turner and AT&T Communications to prevent the transmission or exchange, either directly or indirectly, of non-public information of unaffiliated programmers or distributors relating to contract terms, pricing or negotiations.
