Time Warner lawyer could net $50m exit package

Rob Marcus, the lawyer at the helm of Time Warner Cable, stands to become a very wealthy man if regulators allow the company to merge with Comcast.

The two companies are said to face intense regulator scrutiny in their bid to unite in a US$42.5b venture. Mr Marcus was promoted into his role only six weeks ago, and with the specific aim of negotiating the best deal possible. He joined the legal department of Time Warner 16 years ago. He said, shortly before he took the current post: 'As much as I’d like to be modest, I am kind of built to manage situations like this.' Source: Financial Times
