WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) has determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders to, at the discretion of the Board of Directors and subject to the resolutions set forth below, effect a reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) whereby, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, each two (2) or three (3) shares of TWC Common Stock, either issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation as treasury stock, shall be reclassified and changed into one (1) fully-paid and nonassessable share of TWC Common Stock (the “1-for-2 Reverse Stock Split” and “1-for-3 Reverse Stock Split,” respectively);
 
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors has determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders to, in the event the Board of Directors determines to effect the 1-for-2 Reverse Stock Split or the 1-for-3 Reverse Stock Split, proportionately reduce the number of shares of authorized TWC Common Stock;
 
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors has determined that it is advisable and in the best interests of the Corporation and its stockholders that, if a Reverse Stock Split is declared and effectuated, no fractional shares be issued to any holder of TWC Common Stock in connection with such Reverse Stock Split, and that, instead of issuing fractional shares, the Corporation will pay to each registered stockholder, a cash payment (without interest or deduction) in lieu of such fractional shares equal to the fraction of shares to which the stockholder would otherwise be entitled, multiplied by the volume weighted average price of TWC Common Stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape on the effective date of the Reverse Stock Split;

WHEREAS, the Corporation shall in no event file more than one Proposed Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware; and
