Section 5 — Corporate Governance and Management
Item 5.03 — Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
     On September 26, 2008, the board of directors of Cumulus Media Inc. (the “Company”) (1) recommended that, at the Company’s 2008 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company’s stockholders adopt an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Charter”), to declassify the Company’s board of directors and provide for annual elections of directors (such amendment to the Charter, the “Charter Amendment”) and (2) subject to the effectiveness of the Charter amendment, approved a conforming amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended (the “Bylaws”), to allow for a declassified board of directors whose members would be elected annually (such amendment to the Bylaws, the “Bylaws Amendment”). On November 19, 2008, at the Company’s 2008 annual meeting of stockholders, the Company’s stockholders adopted the Charter Amendment. On November 21, 2008, the Company filed the Charter Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. As a result, the Charter Amendment, as well as the Bylaws Amendment, became effective on November 21, 2008.
     Previously, members of the board were divided into three classes and elected for three-year terms. As a result of the Charter Amendment and the Bylaws Amendment, beginning with those directors whose terms expire at the Company’s 2009 annual meeting of stockholders, directors will be elected to serve one-year terms. At the 2011 annual meeting of stockholders, and each annual meeting of stockholders thereafter, all directors will be elected to serve one-year terms.
     The foregoing descriptions of the Charter Amendment and the Bylaws Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended through the date of this report, a copy of which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 3.1 hereto, and the Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended through the date of this report, a copy of which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 3.2 hereto.
