 Exhibit 10.2 
 CONSULTING AGREEMENT 
 THIS CONSULTING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) made and entered into
as of November 7, 2006 (the “Effective Date”) by and between Cox Radio, Inc. (“the Company”) and Richard A. Ferguson (the “Consultant”); 
 WHEREAS, Consultant retired and voluntarily resigned from his relationship as an employee and executive officer of the Company, and as a member of the
Company’s Board of Directors, as of May 31, 2006; 
 WHEREAS, the Company desires to engage Consultant as an independent contractor
to provide various services in and related to Consultant’s area of expertise on projects as requested by the Company, including but not limited to new and existing signal upgrades and station acquisitions, and such other services as the Company
may request from time to time, on behalf of the Company and/or its affiliates (collectively the “Services”); and 
 WHEREAS, the
Company has offered to engage Consultant to render the Services to the Company, and Consultant desires to accept such engagement, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement; 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and obligations contained herein, the parties, intending to be legally bound,
hereby agree as follows: 
 1. Services. During the term of this Agreement, Consultant shall personally provide Services to the Company, as shall be
requested by, the President and CEO or any executive officer of the Company. 
 2. Compensation. In consideration of such Services, the Company shall
pay the Consultant a fee to be determined from time to time by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, payable exclusively for rendering Services. Subject to the provisions of Sections 10 and 11 below, such fee shall be payable
in monthly installments. Consultant shall keep a record of the Services performed under this Agreement and submit the same to a designated representative of the Company on a monthly basis. 
 3. Expenses. The Company shall reimburse Consultant for all reasonable travel and other similar expenses incurred on behalf of the Company in the performance of
the Services during the Consultant’s engagement under this Agreement. The Consultant agrees to keep and maintain such records of reimbursable expenses as the Company may require and to account for such expenses to the Company by submission of
appropriate documentation to a designated representative of the Company. 
 4. Independent Contractor. During the term of this Agreement, Consultant
shall be an independent contractor and not an employee, partner or agent of the Company or a joint venturer with the Company. Consultant agrees to provide the Services as required by the Company in a professional and workmanlike manner. The means,
manner and method of performing the 

 Services shall be at the discretion of the Consultant, provided the Services are timely performed. The Company
understands that during the term of this Agreement or any extension thereof Consultant may perform services for businesses or individuals other than the Company except as otherwise provided in Section 6 below. Consultant shall not be entitled
to participate in or receive the benefits of any pension, retirement, medical insurance or other employee benefit plan of the Company, its parents or other affiliates based on the relationship created by this Agreement. Consultant shall be
responsible for and pay and discharge any and all obligations to federal, state or local governments for income or earnings taxes, social security contributions, unemployment compensation contributions or any other similar obligations (including
withholding) arising out of his activities under this Agreement. Consultant agrees to indemnify and hold the Company and its affiliates harmless from any tax liability imposed by any federal, state or local government or agency for Consultant’s
failure to pay all necessary taxes and withholding amounts. 
 5. Term. Subject to Sections 10 and 11 below, Consultant’s initial term of
engagement shall be for a period of one year, which shall commence on the Effective Date hereof. This Agreement may be renewed upon terms and conditions mutually agreeable to the parties. 
 6. Exclusivity. Consultant acknowledges that he has had and will have access to nonpublic and/or proprietary information of the Company and its affiliates (the
“Cox Parties”) including, without limitation, business, financial, technical information, market research, priorities, plans and trade secrets, which has been developed or obtained by the Cox Parties by the investment of significant time,
effort and expense, and that such information provides the Cox Parties with a significant competitive advantage in their respective markets. Therefore, the parties agree that, during the term of this Agreement or any extension thereof Consultant
shall not, directly or indirectly, render any services to any business which, in the Company’s reasonable judgment, competes with any of the businesses of the Cox Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Consultant may provide services to such
other business entity if prior to rendering such services Consultant first discloses such services in writing to an executive officer of the Company, and such executive officer agrees in writing (a) that the Company does not wish to take
advantage of such services or opportunities itself, and (b) that such services or opportunities may be provided to such other business entity. 
 7.
Conflicts. During the term of this Agreement or any extension thereof, Consultant agrees to comply with the Cox Radio Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and all professional standards governing Consultant objectivity in the performance of
his duties, including restrictions relating to business interests or other involvements which could potentially compromise Consultant’s objectivity, or create an impression of conflict of interest. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, during the term of this Agreement or any extension thereof, Consultant will not accept any gift, compensation, or gratuity from any person, firm, or company with whom any of the Cox Parties is or may be in competition or in any instance
that there is any implied or stated expectation of favorable treatment of that person, firm or company or in any circumstance which might affect, or give the appearance that it might affect, the objectivity of Consultant.

	8.	Confidentiality. 

 a. Consultant agrees that both
during the term of this Agreement and for a period of five (5) years thereafter he will not disclose to any third party (except as otherwise required by law) or, other than in pursuance of his business relationship with the Cox Parties, use in
any way any: (i) nonpublic information that any of the Cox Parties designates as being confidential or which, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure, is understood by Consultant to be treated as confidential, (ii) trade secrets of
the Cox Parties, or (iii) business opportunity of the Cox Parties (collectively, “Confidential Information”). 
 b.
Immediately upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, or at any other time upon the Company’s request, Consultant shall return to the Company or (at the option of the Company) destroy all memoranda, notes, records or other documents
compiled by Consultant or made available to Consultant during the term of Consultant’s relationship with the Company concerning the business of the Cox Parties, all other Confidential Information and all personal property of the Cox Parties
including, without limitation, all files, audio or video tapes, recordings, records, documents, drawings, specifications, lists, equipment, promotional material, scripts, and similar items and all copies thereof or extracts therefrom. 
 c. Consultant acknowledges that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for unauthorized disclosure of information protected by this
Section 8 and that the Cox Parties shall be entitled, without waiving any other rights or remedies, to such injunctive or equitable relief as may be deemed proper by a court of competent jurisdiction. By disclosing information to Consultant,
the Cox Parties do not grant any express or implied right or license to Consultant to or under the Cox Parties’ patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets or other proprietary information. 
 9. Work Product. Consultant warrants that all ideas, business initiatives and materials created, developed or produced by Consultant whether during his previous
employment relationships with any of the Cox Parties or on behalf of the Company during the term of this Agreement (collectively, “Work Product”) do not infringe the rights of third parties. In consideration of the compensation set forth
in Section 2, the Company will own, exclusively, perpetually and universally, all rights to such Work Product. Such ownership rights do not end with this Agreement, but exist in perpetuity. To the extent any of the Work Product is an original
material, it shall become the Company’s property, as a Work Made For Hire under the copyright laws of the United States. To the extent a court of competent jurisdiction declares this Work-Made-For-Hire provision invalid to any extent,
Consultant hereby assigns to the Company all right, title and interest in and to all such original materials. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an idea, business initiative or material that would otherwise constitute Work Product as defined above shall
not constitute Work Product if such idea, business initiative or material is first disclosed in writing to an executive officer of the Company, and such executive officer agrees in writing that such idea, business initiative or material shall not
constitute Work Product hereunder.

 10. Termination by the Consultant. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Consultant may
terminate this Agreement at any time and for any reason upon giving the Company two weeks’ prior written notice in which event the Company shall pay the Consultant compensation pursuant to Section 2 hereof for Services rendered through
said two week notice period. The parties acknowledge that Section 2 provides for payment of compensation on a monthly basis, and in the event of early termination by Consultant pursuant to this Section 10, the parties agree to pay or
refund compensation to reflect payment for the period of time for which Services have actually been performed. 
 11. Termination by the Company.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Company may terminate this Agreement: (i) at any time and for any reason upon giving the Consultant two weeks’ prior written notice, or (ii) at any time immediately upon
notice if Consultant is in breach of this Agreement or if the Company is dissatisfied for any reason with the Services provided by Consultant. In the event of termination by the Company, the Company shall pay the Consultant compensation pursuant to
Section 2 hereof for Services rendered through the date of termination. The parties acknowledge that Section 2 provides for payment of compensation on monthly basis, and in the event of early termination by the Company pursuant to this
Section 11, the parties agree to pay or refund compensation to reflect payment for the period of time for which Services have actually been performed. 
 12. Benefit and Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Consultant, the Company, and their permitted successors-in-interest. This Agreement shall not be assigned by either party without the prior written consent of the
other, provided however that the Company shall be entitled to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any of the Cox Parties. 
 13.
