Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Amendment No. 9 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 9”) amends the Schedule 13D originally filed on April 1, 2009 (the “Original 13D”), as previously amended on May 21, 2009 by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D, on December 8, 2009 by Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D, on March 4, 2011 by Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D, on May 3, 2012 by Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D, on June 20, 2012 by Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D, on June 27, 2012 by Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D, on July 11, 2012 by Amendment No. 7 and on May 1, 2013 by Amendment No. 8 to Schedule 13D (the Original 13D as so amended, the “Schedule 13D”), filed by Time Warner Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Time Warner”), TW Media Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Time Warner (“TW Media”), and Time Warner Media Holdings B.V., a besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid or a private limited company organized under the laws of the Netherlands, and direct, wholly owned subsidiary of TW Media (“TW Holdings B.V.” and, together with Time Warner and TW Media, the “Reporting Persons”).  This Amendment No. 9 relates to the Class A Common Stock, par value $0.08 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of Central European Media Enterprises Ltd., a Bermuda company (the “Issuer”), with its principal executive offices at O'Hara House, 3 Bermudiana Road, Hamilton, Bermuda.  Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Schedule 13D.
 
Except as specifically amended by this Amendment No. 9, items in the Schedule 13D remain unchanged.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by inserting the following paragraph at the end thereof:
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Preemptive Rights Letter Agreement, on May 8, 2013, TW Holdings B.V. purchased 27,163,854 shares of Class A Common Stock in the Public Offering at a price of $2.75 per share.
 
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
 
Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by replacing it in its entirety with the following:
 
(a)  As of the close of business on May 8, 2013, the Reporting Persons beneficially owned 60,062,297 shares of Class A Common Stock, representing approximately 45.6% of the outstanding shares of CME Common Stock.  As of the close of business on May 8, 2013 and by virtue of the Investor Rights Agreement, as amended by the 2013 Letter Agreement, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own (x) 5,616,936 shares of Class A Common Stock, (y) 30,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and 64,000 shares of Class B Common Stock underlying currently exercisable stock options and (z) 10,000 shares of Class A Common Stock underlying restricted stock units which are scheduled to vest in full on June 13, 2013 (together, the “Lauder Shares”) beneficially owned by Mr. Lauder as disclosed by Mr. Lauder in the Schedule 13D/A filed with the SEC by him on May 1, 2013, representing approximately 4.3% of the outstanding shares of CME Common Stock, based on calculations made in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d) of the Act, as amended.  The percentages of beneficial ownership
 

 
 
 
have been determined based on the 131,621,711 shares of Class A Common Stock and 0 shares of Class B Common Stock outstanding as of May 8, 2013 (after giving effect to the Public Offering), as disclosed in the prospectus supplement dated May 2, 2013 and filed by the Issuer pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5) on May 6, 2013.
 
Neither the Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any other person named in Annexes A, B or C beneficially owns any shares of CME Common Stock other than as set forth herein.
 
(b)  As of the close of business on May 8, 2013, the Reporting Persons may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power with respect to 65,783,233 shares of Class A Common Stock.  Pursuant to the terms of the Voting Deed, as amended by the 2013 Letter Agreement, and subject to the conditions contained therein, TW Holdings B.V. has irrevocably granted RSL Savannah LLC (a company wholly owned by Mr. Lauder) the right to vote any equity securities of the Issuer owned by TW Holdings B.V. and its permitted transferees during the term of the Voting Deed, with the power to appoint a corporate representative or proxies of such shareholders in all matters (subject to certain exceptions described below in Item 6 of the Schedule 13D) with respect to the voting of the equity securities of the Issuer held by such shareholders.  Pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, as amended by the 2013 Letter Agreement, Mr. Lauder and certain of his affiliates have agreed to use their best efforts to vote all equity securities beneficially owned by Mr. Lauder in favor of up to two designees of TW Holdings B.V. to the Issuer’s board of directors, subject to certain limitations and to not vote in favor of certain matters with respect to the capitalization of the Issuer, each as described in Item 6 of the Schedule 13D.  Pursuant to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, direct and indirect transfers of the shares of equity securities of the Issuer held by the Reporting Persons to unaffiliated third parties are subject to certain restrictions, including consent rights, rights of first offer and tag-along rights, as described in Item 6 of the Schedule 13D.  Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial ownership of the Lauder Shares.
 
The descriptions of the Voting Deed and the Investor Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Investor Rights Agreement, the Voting Deed, First Amendment to the Investor Rights Agreement and the 2013 Letter Agreement, which were filed as Exhibits 99.10, 99.11, 99.18 and 99.21 to the Schedule 13D, and are incorporated by reference into this Item 5.
 
(c)  Except as described in Item 3 of the Schedule 13D, no transactions in the securities of the Issuer were effected by the Reporting Persons or, to their knowledge, any other person named in Annexes A, B and C during the past 60 days.
 
(d)  Except for the Reporting Persons, no other person is known by the Reporting Persons to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, any securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons.
 
(e)  Not applicable.
