The Chairman of the Board of Directors is Jeffrey L. Bewkes. As Chairman, Mr. Bewkes has responsibility for overseeing Board-related matters, in consultation with the Lead Independent Director; and presiding at the annual meeting of stockholders.

In May 2010, the independent Directors of the Board reappointed Frank J. Caufield as Lead Independent Director, a position he has held since May 2006. Under the company's Corporate Governance Policy, the Lead Independent Director has a number of responsibilities, including presiding at executive sessions of the Board, acting as liaison between the Chairman and the other Directors, advising the Chairman of the Board with respect to the schedule, agenda, and information for Board meetings; advising the Chairman with respect to consultants whom the Board may retain, and being available, as appropriate, to communicate with the company's stockholders. A full description of the Lead Independent Director's responsibilities is set forth in the Corporate Governance Policy.

One of the important responsibilities of the Time Warner Board of Directors is to determine the appropriate leadership structure for the Board, which will help to ensure the effective, independent oversight of management on behalf of the company’s stockholders. In January 2009, the Board approved a Policy on Determining the Leadership Structure of the Board of Directors, setting forth the processes and criteria for the Board to use in determining the appropriate leadership structure for the Board.

The Board approved the current leadership structure in January 2010, at which time it determined that the current structure, with one individual serving as Lead Independent Director, and another serving as the company's Chairman and CEO, is effective and appropriate.
