                            Cox Communications, Inc.

         This Agreement, dated as of June 25, 2003, is by and between COX
COMMUNICATIONS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and MORGAN STANLEY
& CO. INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation ("MS").

         WHEREAS, the Company has issued $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount
of its 6.15% REset Put Securities due 2033 (the "Notes");

         WHEREAS, as more particularly set forth in the Remarketing Agreement

the Remarketing Agreement);

         WHEREAS, the Company, wishes to terminate MS's Remarketing Option on
the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

         WHEREAS, the Company and MS wish to terminate the Remarketing
Agreement:

         NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and

contracts made or to be performed in such state without reference to the choice
