                    SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE

         THIS SEPARATION AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE is made and entered into
by and between Robert B. Green (hereinafter referred to as "Executive") and Cox
Radio, Inc. (hereinafter referred to as "Company" or "CXR").

                              W I T N E S S E T H:

         WHEREAS, Executive has been employed as Group Vice President for CXR
with his primary office in Miami/Hollywood, Florida; and

         WHEREAS, Executive wishes to resign his employment with CXR, but wishes
to take a six-month personal leave of absence prior to the effective date of
such resignation; and

         WHEREAS, CXR has offered to grant Executive the requested leave of
absence with full pay and benefits, which are over and above those benefits to
which Executive would normally be entitled on such resignation from employment;
and

         WHEREAS, Executive and Company desire to settle fully and finally all
differences between them, including, but in no way limited to, any differences
that might arise out of Executive's employment with Company, and the termination
thereof.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual promises
herein contained, it is agreed as follows:

         FIRST: Executive hereby resigns from all employment and offices with
CXR, its subsidiaries and affiliates, such resignation to be effective April 3,
2002. CXR accepts this resignation on execution of this Agreement.

                  From and after October 3, 2001, Executive is relieved from his
day to day responsibilities and shall not be required to regularly report to
work, all subject to paragraph Tenth following.

                                      -1-
<PAGE>

                  Effective October 3, 2001, Executive shall have no authority
to act on behalf of or otherwise commit the Company, and will not do so.

         SECOND:  (a)      Executive acknowledges that except as provided
following, he has already received all compensation to which he is due.

                  (b)      For the period beginning October 4, 2001 through
April 3, 2002, Executive shall be placed on a personal leave of absence (the
"Paid Leave of Absence") during which CXR will pay to Executive his regular
salary at a rate of Twenty-Three Thousand Nine Hundred Forty-Seven Dollars and
Thirty-Three Cents ($23,947.33) per month for the six (6) month period. Such
amounts shall be paid ratably on regular company pay days.

                  (c)      Executive understands and agrees that during the Paid
Leave of Absence he will also be provided group medical, dental, and life
insurance benefits on the same basis and with the same options as heretofore
provided. In addition, Executive has elected to continue his group health
insurance under COBRA and Company has agreed to pay on Executive's behalf the
premium for his coverage and that of his daughter, on a monthly basis, through
August 3, 2003, provided Executive remains in compliance with this Agreement.

                  (d)      Executive is one hundred percent (100%) vested in the
outstanding 1996 options of seventy thousand ninety-seven (70,097) shares of CXR
stock and shall be permitted full exercise of such options according to the
terms and conditions of their grant.

                  (e)      All amounts payable to Executive shall be subject to
any deductions required by law. The payments called for in subparagraphs (b),
(c) and (d) of this Paragraph exceed the amount to which Executive would
otherwise be entitled and are in lieu of and discharge any obligations of
Company to Executive for compensation, bonuses, commissions, over-rides,
severance pay, accrued but unused vacation, and any other expectation of

                                      -2-

remuneration on the part of Executive. Executive understands and agrees that he
is not entitled to and will not receive any portion of his bonus potential for
2001.

                  (f)      Executive will receive any and all vested benefits to
which he is entitled under any benefit, pension or 401(k) plans in which he has
participated, and will continue to do so through April 3, 2002.

         THIRD: Executive represents, understands and agrees that his employment
with Company will terminate on April 3, 2002.

         FOURTH: This Separation Agreement and General Release shall not in any
way be construed as an indication by Company or Executive that either has acted
improperly with respect to the other or any other person, or that either party
has any rights whatsoever against the other, and each specifically disclaims any
liability to or wrongful acts against the other or any other person, on the part
of itself, its employees or its agents.

         FIFTH: Executive represents that he has not filed any complaints or
charges or lawsuits against Company with any governmental agency or any court,
and that he will not do so at any time hereafter, other than for a breach of
this Agreement.

         SIXTH: Executive understands and agrees that effective August
29, 2001, he was and is no longer authorized to incur any expenses or
obligations or liabilities on behalf of the Company.

         SEVENTH: As a Group Vice president, Executive has been a major

with CXR (i) request or advise any present or future advertiser, client,
supplier, or business affiliate of CXR to withdraw, curtail, or cancel its
business dealings with CXR or (ii) request, induce, advise or solicit any

assist or encourage any individual or entity in commencing or prosecuting any
action or proceeding, including but not limited to individual claimants, and any
