INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

 

Sponsor and Participants

Cox Radio, Inc.

    2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan:

 

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the Cox Radio, Inc. 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2002, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

 

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2002, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

2001 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

 

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002


 

1.   DESCRIPTION OF PLAN

 

The Cox Radio, Inc. 2001 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) is a self-funded contributory stock purchase plan which provides employees the option to purchase stock at a discounted price.

 

General —The Plan was adopted by Cox Radio, Inc. (the “Plan Sponsor”) during 2001 to allow eligible employees to purchase Plan Sponsor stock (up to 750,000 shares in the aggregate) at a discounted price. Eligible employees are employees regularly scheduled to work at least 20 hours per week, including any such person on an authorized leave of absence. There are four entry dates on which eligible employees may commence participation under the Plan, including January 2, 2002, July 1, 2002, January 2, 2003, and July 1, 2003. Any eligible employee who is employed on a grant date (October 15, 2001, May 1 2002, November 1, 2002, and May 1, 2003) is eligible to participate in the Plan as of the entry date that immediately follows such grant date. If an eligible employee elects not to participate on such entry date, he or she will not be permitted to participate in the Plan at any later date. The purchase price per share offered under the Plan with respect to any grant date is the lower of 85% of the fair market value of the share as of such grant date or 90% of the fair market value of the share at the end of the offering period. Shares will be offered to eligible employees for subscription during the period beginning with the applicable grant date and ending on the date 45 days after the grant date (the “Subscription Period”); provided that the Subscription Period with respect to the initial grant date under the Plan shall end 60 days after that grant date. Unless an employee has previously withdrawn from the Plan, shares will be issued on December 31, 2003 based on contributions to date. Employee payroll deductions under the Plan are included in with the general funds of the Plan Sponsor and are subject to the creditors of the Plan Sponsor.

 

Contributions—Contributions to the Plan are made by the participants based on the amount of participant elections. Contributions to the Plan are included with the general assets of the Plan Sponsor. Participants’ contributions are limited to $25,000 during the purchase period from January 2, 2002 to December 31, 2003. Contributions are primarily made through automatic payroll deductions.

 

Distributions—Upon written request, participants may withdraw their total contributions or reduce their contributions prospectively. Distributions may be made in either cash or stock, with cash payments for any fractional shares. These two options are also available to an individual whose employment terminates due to death or retirement.

 

Administrative Expenses—The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Plan Sponsor administers the Plan. The expenses of administering the Plan are paid by the Plan Sponsor.

 

Vesting and Termination—At all times, each Plan participant has a fully vested, nonforfeitable right to his or her contributions to the Plan.

Comparative Financial Statements—Comparative financial statements are not presented because there were no participant contributions and accordingly, no Plan assets prior to January 1, 2002.

 

Plan Termination—The Plan may be terminated by the Board of Directors of the Plan Sponsor at any time. Upon such termination, shares of common stock will be issued to employees as if the Plan were terminated at December 31, 2003. The Plan Sponsor does not have any intent to terminate the Plan.

 

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. The receivable from the Plan Sponsor represents accumulated payroll deductions less amounts disbursed for withdrawals. The liability due to participants represents accumulated payroll deductions to be disbursed to Plan participants for purchase of Plan Sponsor stock.

 

3.   INCOME TAXES

 

The right to purchase shares of common stock under the Plan is intended to constitute an option granted by the Plan Sponsor pursuant to an “employee stock purchase plan” within the meaning of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code, and that such shares, for tax purposes, shall be treated in accordance with the provisions thereof.

An employee is not considered to have income for federal income tax purposes from the granting of a right to purchase shares. Amounts deducted from an employee’s compensation do not reduce the amount of his or her income for tax purposes.
