Explanatory Note
This Amendment No. 3 amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement and Rule 13E-3 Transaction Statement filed under cover of Schedule TO-T on March 23, 2009 (as previously amended and supplemented, the “Schedule TO”), by Cox Enterprises, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Enterprises”), Cox Media Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Enterprises (“Media”), and Cox Radio, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a majority-owned subsidiary of Media (“Radio”). The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Media to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.33 per share (the “Shares”), of Radio not owned by Media upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated March 23, 2009 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements from time to time thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer”).
All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 3 without definition have the meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase, as filed with the Schedule TO on March 23, 2009.
The items of the Schedule TO set forth below are hereby amended and supplemented by the following changes to the Offer to Purchase:
Items 1 through 9, 11 and 13.
(1) The following is hereby added immediately after “The Tender Offer — Section 7 — Certain Information Concerning Radio — February Forecast” in the Offer to Purchase:
“Preliminary First Quarter Results
“Enterprises and Media regularly receive a variety of unaudited, nonpublic financial, operating and forward-looking information from Radio in the ordinary course of business. On April 7, 2009, Enterprises and Media received unaudited preliminary financial results for the month and three months ended March 31, 2009. These preliminary results are subject to review by Radio management and by Radio’s independent registered public accounting firm. In addition, the preliminary results do not include reclassifications and other adjustments made in the ordinary course of preparing GAAP financial statements for filing as part of Radio’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q. Actual reported results will differ from these preliminary results, possibly materially, but these preliminary results represent the best information available to Enterprises and Media at this time. The following table sets forth preliminary summary consolidated financial data for Radio at and for the three months ended March 31, 2009, the Radio budget for the three months ended March 31, 2009, historical balance sheet data derived from the audited financial statements filed by Radio with its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008 and historical statement of income data derived from the unaudited financial statements filed by Radio with its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2008. For more information regarding the 2009 budget, see “— Summary of Radio’s Long Range Plan.”

“March Forecast
“On April 10, 2009, Enterprises and Media received an updated forecast of statement of income and other data for fiscal year 2009 (the “March Forecast”) from the senior management of Radio. The March Forecast is based on the preliminary financial results for the month and three months ended March 31, 2009 provided to Enterprises and Media by Radio in the ordinary course (see “— Preliminary First Quarter Results” above). Accordingly, if the preliminary results change as Radio’s financial statements are prepared and finalized, then the March Forecast would change as well. Radio has advised Enterprises and Media that none of the board of directors of Radio (other than Hayes, Robert F. Neil and Marc W. Morgan), its audit committee or the special committee have been provided the preliminary first quarter results or the March Forecast. The following table sets forth the March Forecast, the February Forecast and the 2009 budget developed as part of the Radio Long Range Plan in 2008.

†† | As previously disclosed, in preparing the Radio Long Range Plan in October 2008, Radio’s management incorporated their best forecast at the time of future market conditions. However, the continued and accelerating deterioration of market conditions in late 2008 and early 2009 was not fully anticipated by Radio’s management and, therefore, was not reflected in the Radio Long Range Plan. | |
