Item 5.04. Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant’s Employee Benefit Plans.

 

On May 2, 2016, Time Warner Cable Inc. (“TWC”) sent a notice to its directors and executive officers informing them that, as a result of certain restrictions on transactions by participants in the TWC Savings Plan (the “Plan Restrictions”), the directors and executive officers of TWC could be subject to certain trading restrictions (the “Blackout Period”) with respect to TWC common stock acquired in connection with their services as a director or an executive officer of TWC.  Due to changes in the Plan Restrictions, the Blackout Period has been cancelled.

 

On May 13, 2016, as required by Section 306(a) of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and Rule 104 of Regulation BTR, TWC sent an updated notice to its directors and executive officers informing them that the potential Blackout Period has been cancelled and explaining the reason for such cancellation (the “Updated Notice”). A copy of the Updated Notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
