1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Viacom Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Viacom" or the "Company") is a diversified company with operations in five segments: (i) Cable Networks, (ii) Television, (iii) Infinity, (iv) Entertainment and (v) Video. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company operates its consumer publishing business, which was previously reported as the Publishing segment, under the Entertainment segment. Prior period segment information has been reclassified to conform to the new presentation.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the more detailed financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the Company for the periods presented. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current presentation.

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates, judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Net Earnings (Loss) per Common Share—Basic earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") is based upon net earnings (loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS reflects the effect of the assumed exercise of stock options only in the periods in which such effect would have been dilutive.

The table below presents a reconciliation of weighted average shares used in the calculations of basic and diluted EPS (shares in millions):

	Three Months Ended June 30,		Six Months Ended June 30,
	2002	2001	2002	2001
Weighted average shares for basic EPS	1,756.1	1,768.6	1,754.8	1,698.9
Incremental shares for stock options	25.6	31.6	25.4	31.7

Weighted average shares for diluted EPS	1,781.7	1,800.2	1,780.2	1,730.6

Total comprehensive earnings (loss)		$	606.3		$	12.0		$	(524.5	)	$	(43.9	)

Recent Pronouncements—Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"), which replaced SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("SFAS 121"). SFAS 144 establishes an accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale, including discontinued operations, and replaces the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 30 for the disposal of segments of a business. Long-lived assets classified as held for disposal as a result of activities that were initiated prior to adoption of SFAS 144 shall continue to be accounted for under the provisions of SFAS 121 or APB Opinion No. 30. The adoption of SFAS 144 did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141"), and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 141 requires, among other things, that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 and provides specific criteria for the initial recognition of intangible assets apart from goodwill. SFAS 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, including such assets recorded in past business combinations, no longer be amortized to earnings, but should instead be tested for impairment at least on an annual basis. Intangible assets with finite lives will continue to be amortized over their useful lives and reviewed for impairment. The Company determined that, with the exception of Blockbuster, none of the Company's reporting units had an impairment. The Company recorded an impairment charge, of approximately $1.48 billion related to Blockbuster's goodwill, as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, net of minority interest and tax, in its statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities" ("SFAS 146"), was issued on July 30, 2002 and replaces Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity". SFAS 146 requires companies to recognize certain costs associated with exit or disposal activities when they are incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS 146 will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002.

2) GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The initial adoption of SFAS 142, effective January 1, 2002, required the Company to perform a fair-value based impairment test of goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives. The first step of the test examines whether or not the book values of the Company's reporting units exceed their fair values. The Company's reporting units are generally consistent with or one level below the operating segments underlying the segments identified in Note 9—Reportable Segments. As a result of such impairment tests completed in the first quarter of 2002, the Company determined that goodwill related to Blockbuster was impaired. The fair value of Blockbuster's goodwill was computed principally based upon the present value of future cash flows and the resulting impairment charge was $1.82 billion in total or $1.48 billion, net of minority interest and tax. This methodology differs from the Company's previous policy, as permitted under accounting standards existing at that time, of using Blockbuster's undiscounted cash flows to determine if goodwill was recoverable. In accordance with the transitional guidance provided by SFAS 142, as the impairment charge was related to the implementation of SFAS 142, the charge of $1.48 billion has been recorded as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, net of minority interest and tax, in the Company's consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Intangible assets subject to amortization at June 30, 2002 primarily consist of franchise and subscriber agreements that are being amortized over 5 to 40 years. Amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 were $25.5 million and $51.2 million, respectively. The Company expects its aggregate annual amortization expense for existing intangible assets subject to amortization to be approximately $105 million for each of the next five succeeding years. Amortization expense may vary as acquisitions and dispositions occur in the future and as purchase price allocations are finalized.

The Company's intangible assets subject to amortization and related accumulated amortization were as follows:

	At June 30, 2002
	Gross		Accumulated Amortization			Net
Intangible assets subject to amortization:
Franchise agreements	$	450.9	$	(52.2	)	$	398.7
Subscriber agreements		372.5		(108.0	)		264.5
Other intangible assets		241.4		(70.5	)		170.9

Other intangible assets		235.2		(62.6	)		172.6

FCC licenses valued at approximately $11.6 billion and $11.0 billion at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001, respectively, were recorded as intangible assets with indefinite lives and were not subject to amortization.

The changes in the book value of goodwill, by segment, for the six months ended June 30, 2002 are as follows:

	Cable Networks			Television			Infinity		Entertainment		Video			Total
Balance at January 1, 2002	$	7,239.6		$	13,371.0		$	30,869.0	$	2,020.8	$	5,608.6		$	59,109.0

(a): Adjustments primarily relate to the Company's purchase price allocation for the acquisition of BET, foreign currency translation adjustments and tax valuation allowances that resulted from the acquisition of the minority interest of Infinity.

The following table provides a reconciliation of reported net earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 to adjusted net earnings that would have been reported had SFAS 142 been adopted as of January 1, 2001.

4) RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

In the fourth quarter of 2001, MTV Networks announced a restructuring plan to reduce headcount in its domestic offices and close certain offices in Latin America, Europe and Asia. In connection with this plan, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $66.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2001. Included in the restructuring charge was severance of $58.3 million for the termination of approximately 450 employees worldwide and lease termination and other occupancy costs of $8.3 million for vacated office space in New York. In the second quarter of 2002, an incremental $7.8 million was accrued as additional lease termination costs based on a change in the initial estimate. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had paid and charged $41.9 million against the severance liability and $5.5 million against the lease termination liability. The Company expects to substantially utilize these reserves by the end of 2002.

In the fourth quarter of 2001, in connection with the Company's plan to integrate United Paramount Network ("UPN") with CBS Network operations, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $52.8 million. The restructuring charge included programming write-offs of $29.6 million, approximately $15.0 million of employee-related costs, including severance, and lease termination and other costs of $8.2 million. The integration of UPN with CBS Network operations began in January 2002. The Company is eliminating approximately 50 positions and vacating space at 3 of UPN's offices. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had paid and charged approximately $8.2 million against the severance liability and $.9 million against the lease termination reserves. The Company expects to substantially use these reserves by the end of 2002.

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

In the second quarter of 2000, the Company recorded non-recurring merger-related charges of $698 million ($505 million after-tax or $.41 per share), associated with the integration of Viacom and CBS and the acquisition of UPN. These amounts included non-cash charges of $415 million principally attributable to compensation for stock options and $283 million of cash payments and accrued liabilities for severance, transaction fees and integration costs. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had paid and charged approximately $114 million for severance liabilities, $27 million for transaction fees and $73 million related to integration costs. The Company expects to substantially use these reserves by the end of 2003.

The following table summarizes the activity for merger-related and restructuring charges discussed above:

On June 15, 2002, $2.6 million of the 8.875% senior subordinated notes due 2007 were redeemed at a redemption price equal to 104.4% of the principal amount.

At June 30, 2002, the Company had borrowings under its $4.75 billion commercial paper program of approximately $745.3 million. Borrowings under the program have maturities of less than a year and are supported by unused revolving credit facilities.

6) SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

During the first six months of 2002, on a trade date basis, the Company repurchased 11.1 million shares of its Class B Common Stock for approximately $493.5 million under its share repurchase program, of which 4.1 million shares were repurchased for approximately $197.2 million in the second quarter.

7) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company has long-term noncancelable operating lease commitments for retail and office space and equipment, transponders, studio facilities and vehicles. The Company has also entered into capital leases for satellite transponders and buildings.

Viacom's outdoor advertising business has franchise rights entitling it to display advertising on media such as buses, taxis, trains, bus shelters, terminals, billboards, and phone kiosks. Under most of these franchise agreements, the franchiser is entitled to receive the greater of a percentage of the relevant advertising revenues, net of advertising agency fees, or a specified guaranteed minimum annual payment.

Other commitments of the Company, estimated to aggregate approximately $15.1 billion, are not reflected in the balance sheet as of June 30, 2002. These commitments include approximately $9.9 billion for the acquisition of sports programming rights, approximately $4.3 billion relating to television and feature film production and acquisitions and approximately $.9 billion for talent contracts. A majority of such fees are payable over several years, as part of the normal course of business.

Legal Matters

VIACOM INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

(Tabular dollars in millions, except per share amounts)

a substantially similar complaint with approximately 200 additional named plaintiffs in Superior Court for the County of Los Angeles. This complaint also sought certification of a nationwide class of similarly situated plaintiffs. On January 8, 2002, the California court denied plaintiffs' motion for class certification. Plaintiffs have appealed such denial of class certification by the California court. The Company believes that the plaintiffs' position in these litigations is without merit and intends to continue to defend itself vigorously in the litigations.

Asbestos and Environmental. The Company is a defendant in lawsuits claiming various asbestos-related personal injuries, which allegedly occurred as a result of exposure caused by various products manufactured by Westinghouse, a predecessor, generally prior to the early 1970s. Westinghouse was neither a producer nor a manufacturer of asbestos. The Company is typically named as one of a large number of defendants in both state and federal cases. In the majority of lawsuits, the plaintiffs have not identified which of the Company's products is the basis of a claim. Claims against the Company in which a product has been identified principally relate to exposures allegedly caused by asbestos-containing insulating material in turbines sold for power-generation, industrial and marine use, or by asbestos-containing grades of decorative micarta, a laminate used in commercial ships.

Claims typically are both filed and settled in large groups, which makes the amount and timing of settlements, and the number of pending claims, subject to significant fluctuation from period to period. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had pending approximately 118,000 asbestos claims, as compared to approximately 129,700 as of June 30, 2001 and approximately 106,000 as of December 31, 2001. Of the claims pending as of June 30, 2002, approximately 86,600 were pending in state courts, approximately 22,400 in federal court and approximately 9,000 were third party claims. During the second quarter of 2002, the Company received approximately 9,700 new claims and closed approximately 6,600 claims. The Company reports claims as closed when it becomes aware that a dismissal order has been entered by a court or when the Company has reached agreement with the claimants on the material terms of a settlement.

Settlement costs depend on the seriousness of the injuries that form the basis of the claim, the quality of evidence supporting the claims and other factors. To date, the Company has not been liable for any third-party claims. The Company's total costs in 2001 for settlement and defense of asbestos claims after insurance recoveries and net of tax benefits, were approximately $21 million. A portion of such costs relates to claims settled in prior years.

The Company believes that its reserves and insurance are adequate to cover its asbestos liabilities.

The Company from time to time receives claims from federal and state environmental regulatory agencies and other entities asserting that it is or may be liable for environmental cleanup costs and related damages principally relating to discontinued operations conducted by companies acquired by the Company.

Other. The Company has amounts owed by an international licensee under a series of long-term licensing arrangements covering feature film and television product. The licensee is disputing its obligation to accept and to pay for a portion of this product under certain of these arrangements. The Company has brought suit to enforce its rights under those arrangements and strongly believes in the merits of its position. The licensee is attempting to reorganize under German insolvency law. As a result, the Company may be unable to recover some or all of amounts being sought in the litigation, as well as the undisputed sums owing under these arrangements. The Company however, believes that the resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations.

Litigation is inherently uncertain and always difficult to predict. However, based on its understanding and evaluation of the relevant facts and circumstances, the Company believes that the above-described legal matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

8) PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes represents federal, state and local and foreign income taxes on earnings before income taxes. The annual estimated effective tax rates were 40.5% for 2002 and 91.1% for 2001. The annual estimated effective tax rate for 2001 was adversely affected by amortization of intangibles in excess of the amount deductible for tax purposes. Excluding the non-deductible amortization of intangibles, including goodwill, the annual estimated effective tax rate would have been 41.6% for 2001.

9) REPORTABLE SEGMENTS

The following tables set forth the Company's financial performance by reportable segment. Effective January 1, 2002, the Company operates its consumer publishing business, which was previously reported as the Publishing segment, under the Entertainment segment. Prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the new presentation. Intercompany revenues are recorded at fair market value as if the sales were to third parties and are eliminated in consolidation. Intercompany revenue eliminations were principally associated with the Entertainment, Television and Cable segments and were $103.1 million, $19.9 million and $17.5 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and $153.1 million, $70.1 million and $27.4 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2002. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, the Entertainment segment's intercompany revenue eliminations were approximately $101.5 million and $207.1 million, respectively, and principally reflect the Company's total intercompany revenue eliminations. For all periods presented, intercompany profit eliminations are primarily comprised of television programming sales to cable networks, and the sale of feature films to cable and broadcast networks and the video segment.

The Company evaluates performance based on many factors including revenues, operating income, net earnings and EBITDA. EBITDA is defined as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization. The Company believes that EBITDA is one appropriate measure of evaluating the operating performance of its segments. However, EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, operating income, net earnings, earnings per share, cash flows, and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). As EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

The Company also believes free cash flow to be an important measure of its performance. Free cash flow reflects the Company's EBITDA less cash interest, taxes paid, working capital requirements and capital expenditures. The Company's free cash flow for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 was $1.03 billion and $1.41 billion, respectively, versus free cash flow of $846.6 million and $1.19 billion, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
(Tabular dollars in millions)

Management's discussion and analysis of the combined results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes and the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company operates its consumer publishing business under the Entertainment segment. Prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the new presentation.

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS 141"), and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142"). SFAS 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives, including such assets recorded in past business combinations, no longer be amortized to earnings, but should instead be tested for impairment at least on an annual basis. As a result of the adoption, the Company during the first quarter recorded an impairment charge net of minority interest and tax of approximately $1.48 billion related to Blockbuster's goodwill, as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle, in its statement of operations. Assuming the adoption of SFAS 142 had occurred on January 1, 2001, operating income would have increased 5% for the quarter and remained essentially unchanged for six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared with the prior year periods.

The tables below present the Company's revenues and operating income, as reported for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, and the Company's operating income, adjusted for SFAS 142, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001.

The table below sets forth EBITDA (defined as operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. The Company believes that EBITDA is an appropriate measure of evaluating the operating performance of its segments. However, EBITDA should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, operating income, net earnings, earnings per share, cash flows, and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). As EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, this measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Results of Operations

For the three months ended June 30, 2002, revenues of $5.85 billion increased 2% from $5.72 billion, operating income increased 5% to $1.18 billion from $1.13 billion adjusted for SFAS 142, and EBITDA increased 4% to $1.42 billion from $1.36 billion for the same period last year. The Cable Networks, Television and Video segments all contributed to the Company's gain in revenues, operating income and EBITDA. These gains were partially offset by the decrease in operating income and EBITDA in the Infinity and Entertainment segments. The Company's second quarter results reflect advertising growth for the first time since the first quarter of 2001 due to the recent improvement in the advertising market. The continuance of this growth is dependent upon the strength of the overall economic environment and the television, radio and outdoor advertising markets, in particular.

Total expenses decreased 9% to $4.67 billion for the second quarter of 2002 from $5.13 billion for the second quarter of 2001 and decreased 10% to $9.48 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2002 versus $10.48 billion for the same prior-year period. The decrease for the three-and six-month periods was principally due to the adoption of SFAS 142, which eliminated amortization of goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lines. Amortization was $25.5 million for the quarter and $51.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 compared to $565.7 million and $1.10 billion for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively. Excluding amortization, expenses in the second quarter of 2002 increased 2% and were flat for the six months as compared with the prior-year periods.

Segment Results of Operations

For comparability, the following segment discussions of operating income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001, respectively, are presented using comparisons to 2001 operating income, adjusted for SFAS 142.

EBITDA	$	422.4	$	388.7	9%	$	825.7	$	748.1	10%

For the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002, higher revenues, operating income and EBITDA principally reflect growth in advertising revenues and cable affiliate fees. Advertising revenues for Cable Networks increased 4% for the quarter and 2% for the six months, principally driven by growth at MTV, Nickelodeon, TV Land, TNN and BET. The revenue increases were partially offset by revenue declines at VH1 as a result of lower ratings. Operating expenses for both the three and six month period were 5% higher, however these increases were partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expenses. Total expenses, as a percentage of revenues, decreased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2002. Showtime subscriptions increased by approximately 2.8 million, or 10% over the prior year, to 32.0 million subscriptions at June 30, 2002. Capital expenditures for Cable Networks were $20.6 million and $33.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, versus $37.2 million and $65.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

The 2002 second quarter ranked as the highest-rated quarter in MTV's history for the 18- to 34-year old audience with contributions from new and existing hits including THE OSBOURNES, THE 2002 MTV MOVIE AWARDS and REAL WORLD XI. Nickelodeon finished the second quarter as the No. 1 basic cable network in total-day ratings for the 27th consecutive quarter, and achieved its most-watched second quarter ever among households and total viewers on a 24-hour basis. SPONGEBOB SQUAREPANTS reigns as television's top-rated kids' show. In the second quarter, TNN's ratings in the key 18- to 49-year-old audience increased by 50% from the prior year, marking the eighth straight quarter of ratings growth. BET continues to strengthen its position as the No. 1 cable network in primetime for African Americans in 18- to 34-year old and 18- to 49-year old audiences. For the second quarter, BET scored its highest ratings ever in core adults 18-34 driven by hit shows 106TH AND PARK and THE 2ND ANNUAL BET AWARDS.

Television's results were led by advertising revenue growth at CBS and UPN Networks and stations, including double-digit revenue growth in primetime at CBS and UPN networks. Television's expenses in the second quarter increased primarily due to higher program costs, which were more than offset by revenue increases. CBS Network experienced slight increases in program costs across its dayparts. TV stations higher program costs were principally due to acquiring the rights to a number of NY Yankees games. CBS Enterprises slightly higher program costs were driven by higher fees for EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND partially offset by lower fees for THE OPRAH WINFREY SHOW. Total expenses, as a percentage of revenues, were flat for the quarter. CBS Network had record breaking upfront advertising commitments of approximately $1.9 billion in primetime for the 2002-2003 season, selling approximately 15-20% more of its inventory versus $1.3 billion for the 2001-2002 season, achieving the highest rate increase of all major networks. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, Television's revenues, operating income and EBITDA decreased as the upswing in advertising revenues in the second quarter was more than offset by softness in the advertising market experienced in the first quarter, the absence of the super bowl broadcast on CBS in 2002 and the competition from the Winter Olympics. Capital expenditures for Television were $30.2 million and $49.5 million for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, versus $22.2 million and $37.1 million for the same periods in 2001.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

For the quarter ended June 30, 2002, Paramount Television revenues decreased slightly. Network television revenues were lower as revenues from network series which debuted in the 2001/2002 season, including ENTERPRISE, were more than offset by the absence of license fees from STAR TREK: VOYAGER, DIAGNOSIS MURDER and certain cancelled series. The lower network revenues were partially offset by higher domestic and foreign syndication revenues and higher home video revenues from the DVD release of STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, revenues were higher principally as a result of higher domestic syndication library revenues for THE ANDY GRIFFITH SHOW and HAPPY DAYS. Paramount Television's operating income and EBITDA increased for the quarter but decreased for the six months mainly resulting from a change in product mix, and from the impact on deficits and profitability of shows affected by certain international long-term licensing agreements with a major international customer that is attempting to reorganize under German insolvency law.

Based on its strong line-up of regularly scheduled hit series, CBS Network finished the 2001-2002 season a solid second among adults 18-49, its best competitive finish in nine years. CBS aired 10 of the top 20 most-watched regular series, including CSI: CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION, the No. 1 drama on television, SURVIVOR, the No. 1 reality series on television, EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND, the No. 2 comedy and 60 MINUTES, the No.1 newsmagazine. UPN delivered its best performance in 5 years during the 2001-2002 season among adults 18-49 and total viewers, spurred by such hits as BUFFY: THE VAMPIRE SLAYER and the new Star Trek series ENTERPRISE. UPN was the fastest-growing broadcast network among persons 12-34, adults 18-34 and adults 18-49 and the second-year comedy, GIRLFRIENDS, was the season's fastest-growing comedy on any broadcast network.

For the three months ended June 30, 2002, Infinity reported slightly higher revenues compared to the same period last year, reflecting a 3% increase in radio revenues offset by a 3% decline in outdoor revenue. Radio's revenue increase was led by double-digit increases in the New York market which benefited from the addition of the NY Yankees season-broadcast on WCBS-AM, and higher revenues from distribution agreements and consideration for management services with Westwood One radio network, an affiliated company. Revenues from these arrangements were approximately $38.2 million and $28.2 million for the second quarter of 2002 and 2001, respectively and $73.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and $46.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. For the six months ended June 30, 2002 Infinity reported revenues of $1.79 billion versus $1.82 billion for the first six months of 2001 as soft economic conditions in the second half of 2001 continued to affect the advertising market well into the first quarter of 2002. Operating income and EBITDA for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 decreased compared to prior year periods partially due to incremental expenses associated with acquired sports rights, higher guarantee payments on the renewal of a transit contract in the New York market and new transit contracts in the Chicago and Cleveland markets. Capital expenditures for Infinity were $21.2 million and $40.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, versus $25.2 million and $52.6 million for the same periods in the prior year.

For the three months ended June 30, 2002, Entertainment revenues decreased slightly, while for the six months, revenues increased 3% versus the prior-year periods. Revenues for the quarter decreased principally as a result of lower Features and Parks revenues partially offset by higher Theaters and Publishing revenues, while revenues for the six months reflect higher Features, Theaters and Publishing revenues. For the quarter, Features revenues were lower principally due to lower foreign theatrical and home video, and foreign pay television revenues, partially offset by higher network, foreign syndication and domestic pay television revenues. Features revenues in the second quarter included contributions from the theatrical release of THE SUM OF ALL FEARS, CHANGING LANES and CLOCKSTOPPERS and the home video release of VANILLA SKY and DOMESTIC DISTURBANCE. For the six months, Features revenues increased principally due to higher foreign theatrical, foreign syndication and domestic pay television revenues. This increase in Features revenues was partially offset by lower foreign home video and domestic theatrical revenues. Theaters higher revenues for the quarter and six months were driven by higher average admission and concession prices. Publishing's increased revenues principally reflect increased sales in the Adult Publishing Group and Children's Division. Simon & Schuster's top-selling titles in the second quarter included "DADDY'S LITTLE GIRL" by Mary Higgins Clark and "THE SUMMERHOUSE" by Jude Deveraux. Parks revenues for the three and six months decreased principally due to lower attendance as a result of inclement spring and early summer weather and lower per capita spending.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, Entertainment's operating income and EBITDA decreased slightly principally due to increased Features distribution costs driven by a higher number of theatrical releases offset by the revenue items noted above, cost reduction achieved by the renewal of a long-term DVD duplication agreement and lower Parks operating costs. Capital expenditures for Entertainment were $23.5 million and $44.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, respectively, versus $8.3 million and $28.8 million for the same periods last year.

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company operates its consumer publishing business under this segment. Prior period segment information has been reclassified to conform to the new presentation.

NM—Not meaningful

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, Video revenues increases were principally due to an increase in worldwide same store sales and in the number of company-operated stores from June 30, 2001 to June 30, 2002. For the quarter, worldwide same store sales, which includes rental and retail product, increased 3.9% primarily due to double-digit growth in sales of previously rented product and retail merchandise. These positive comparisons were partially offset by a decline of 2% domestic and 1% international rental revenues, which were impacted by the increased availability of titles for sale at retail outlets. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, worldwide same store sales increased 2.0%. Blockbuster's rental revenues are generated from the rental of VHS tapes, DVDs, video games and from any eventual sale of previously rented VHS tapes, DVDs and video games. Revenues generated from rental transactions include revenues received in connection with the initial rentals of product, as well as revenues received in connection with any continuation of such rentals past the initial rental period, as contemplated by its membership agreement. Including the impact from the items described above, Blockbuster's same store rental revenues increased 2% for the second quarter.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, Video's higher operating income and EBITDA were driven by growth in same store sales and higher margin DVD rental revenues as a percentage of total rental revenues. Gross margin of 59.3% for the second quarter decreased slightly from 60.3% from the prior year quarter, primarily due to the decrease in revenues from DIRECTV and higher contributions from lower margin retail business.

Blockbuster ended the second quarter of 2002 with 8,138 company-owned and franchise stores, a net increase of 357 stores over the second quarter of 2001 of which 50 company-owned and 61 franchise stores were added in the second quarter of 2002. Capital expenditures for Video were $18.3 million and $32.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 versus $11.4 million and $22.9 million for the same periods last year.

In April 2002, the Company acquired shares of Blockbuster's Class A common stock to maintain its ownership position at no less than 80% for tax consolidation purposes. Viacom currently owns approximately 81% of Blockbuster. Blockbuster's Class A common stock is quoted on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol BBI.

Other Income and Expense Information

Corporate Expenses/Eliminations

Corporate expenses, including depreciation, decreased 13% to $42.9 million for the second quarter of 2002 versus the prior-year period and for the six months ended June 30, 2002, corporate expenses decreased 7% to $72.9 million. The decreases were principally due to effective cost containment measures.

Intersegment eliminations were $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2002 versus $21.3 million for the prior-year period and $39.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 versus $48.2 million for the same prior-year period. Eliminations principally reflect the profit elimination of television programming sales to cable networks and the sale of feature films to cable and broadcast networks and the video segment.

Residual Costs

Residual costs primarily include pension and postretirement benefit costs for benefit plans retained by the Company for previously divested businesses. Residual costs increased 20% to $22.0 million for the second quarter of 2002 versus the prior-year period primarily due to a reduction in amortized actuarial gains for benefit plans of divested businesses. For the six month period ended June 30, 2002 residual costs increased 5% to $44.0 million from $41.8 million in the prior year period.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, depreciation and amortization decreased to $238.7 million and $468.1 million, respectively, as compared with $775.9 million and $1.52 billion, respectively, for the comparable periods in 2001. The decrease is due to the Company's adoption of SFAS 142 effective January 1, 2002.

Interest Expense

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002, interest expense decreased 16% to $221.9 million and decreased 17% to $431.1 million, respectively. The Company had approximately $10.70 billion as of June 30, 2002 and $12.4 billion as of June 30, 2001 of principal amount of debt outstanding (including current maturities) at weighted average interest rates of 6.4% and 6.9%, respectively.

Interest Income

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the prior-year periods, interest income decreased to $3.5 million from $8.0 million and $7.5 million from $19.4 million, respectively, due to lower cash balances and lower interest rates.

Other Items, Net

"Other items, net" reflect a net loss of $27.3 million for the second quarter and $18.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to net earnings of $2.0 million and a net loss of $7.8 million for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2001. "Other items, net" for the second quarter of 2002 principally reflect losses associated with foreign exchange of $22.7 million, losses of $5.1 million associated with securitizing trade receivables partially offset by a net gain on the sale of assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, "Other items, net" principally reflect losses associated with foreign exchange of $27.0 million and losses of $10.1 million associated with securitizing trade receivables, partially offset by the recovery of certain advertising commitments of $11.1 million and a net gain on the sale and disposal of assets of $10.9 million. "Other items, net," for the three and six months of 2001 principally reflect gains and losses associated with foreign exchange and the sale of assets.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes represents federal, state and local and foreign income taxes on earnings before income taxes. The annual estimated effective tax rates were 40.5% for 2002 and 91.1% for 2001. The annual estimated effective tax rate for 2001 was adversely affected by amortization of intangibles in excess of the amount deductible for tax purposes. Excluding the non-deductible amortization of intangibles, the annual estimated effective tax rate would have been 41.6% for 2001.

Equity in Loss of Affiliated Companies, Net of Tax

"Equity in loss of affiliated companies, net of tax" was $3.7 million and $17.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared with $7.1 million and $34.2 million, respectively, for the comparable prior-year periods. The amounts in all periods presented principally reflect operating losses from international ventures and internet investments partially offset by positive results at Comedy Central.

Minority Interest, Net of Tax

Minority interest for the second quarter of 2002 primarily represents the minority ownership of Blockbuster common stock.

Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle, Net of Minority Interest and Tax

Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS 142 and recorded an after-tax non-cash charge of $1.48 billion, or $.84 per basic and $.83 per diluted share, as a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in the consolidated statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2002.

Net Earnings (Loss)

For the reasons described above, the Company reported net earnings of $546.5 million for the second quarter of 2002 as compared to $16.7 million for the second quarter of 2001 and a net loss of $567.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 versus net earnings of $9.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001.

Restructuring Charges

In the fourth quarter of 2001, MTVN announced a restructuring plan to reduce headcount in its domestic offices and close certain offices in Latin America, Europe and Asia. In connection with this plan, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of approximately $66.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2001. Included in the restructuring charge was severance of $58.3 million for the termination of approximately 450 employees worldwide and lease termination and other occupancy costs of $8.3 million for vacated office space in New York. In the second quarter of 2002, an incremental $7.8 million was accrued as additional lease termination costs based on a change in the initial estimate. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had paid and charged $41.9 million against the severance liability and $5.5 million against the lease termination liability. The Company expects to substantially utilize these reserves by the end of 2002.

In the fourth quarter of 2001, in connection with the Company's plan to integrate UPN with CBS Network operations, the Company recorded a restructuring charge of $52.8 million. The restructuring charge included programming write-offs of $29.6 million, approximately $15.0 million of employee-related costs, including severance, and lease termination and other costs of $8.2 million. The integration of UPN with CBS Network operations began in January 2002. The Company is eliminating approximately 50 positions and vacating space at 3 of UPN's offices. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had paid and charged approximately $8.2 million against the severance liability and $.9 million against the lease termination reserves. The Company expects to substantially use these reserves by the end of 2002.

Financial Position

Current assets decreased to $6.79 billion at June 30, 2002 from $7.21 billion at December 31, 2001, primarily due to reductions in cash and receivables, partially offset by an increase in current inventory. The decrease in accounts receivable is primarily due to timing on collection of receivables from sales at the end of 2001. The allowance for doubtful accounts as a percentage of receivables was 9.2% at June 30, 2002 compared to 7.1% at December 31, 2001 reflecting additional reserves primarily for insolvent customers. Current inventory reflects increases in Video merchandise inventory of approximately $109 million to support Blockbuster's merchandising initiatives to increase its share of the retail market.

Net property and equipment decreased $163.5 million to $6.17 billion at June 30, 2002 from $6.34 billion at December 31, 2001 primarily reflecting depreciation expense of $416.8 million partially offset by capital expenditures of $204.5 million principally for outdoor advertising structures, video stores, construction of new park rides, and broadcasting equipment. Goodwill of $57.42 billion decreased by $1.69 billion from $59.11 billion at December 31, 2001, reflecting the write-off of goodwill related to Blockbuster as a result of the implementation of SFAS 142. Intangibles increased $562.9 million to $12.44 billion at June 30, 2002 from $11.88 billion at December 31, 2001, reflecting the addition of FCC licenses with the acquisition of KCAL-TV in May.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Current liabilities decreased to $7.12 billion at June 30, 2002 from $7.56 billion at December 31, 2001 primarily due to reductions in accrued expenses and accrued participations. Total debt, including current maturities, decreased $422.2 million to $10.70 billion at June 30, 2002 principally reflecting the use of cash from operations to reduce outstanding debt. Minority interest of $796.5 million at June 30, 2002 decreased $415.3 million from $1.21 billion at December 31, 2001 reflecting the minority interest impact of the change in accounting principle from the implementation of SFAS 142 and the acquisition of the minority interest in the Company's online music business.

Cash Flows

Operating Activities. Net cash flow from operating activities of $1.61 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2002 principally reflects a net loss of $567.0 million adjusted for non-cash charges of $1.48 billion for the adoption of SFAS 142 and depreciation and amortization of $468.1 million. Cash flow from operations also reflects decreases in accrued expenses more than offset by decreases in receivables. Net cash flow from operating activities of $1.40 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2001 principally reflects net earnings of $9.4 million adjusted for depreciation and amortization expenses of $1.52 billion partially offset by investments in inventory and decreases in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

Investing Activities. Net cash expenditures for investing activities of $915.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 principally reflect capital expenditures of $204.5 million, additional investments of $35.6 million in affiliated companies and acquisitions of $698.2 million primarily reflecting the acquisition of KCAL-TV as well as other acquisitions of outdoor businesses and the minority interest of the Company's online music business and MTV Asia. These expenditures are partially offset by proceeds from dispositions of $13.1 million principally of fixed assets. In April 2002, the Company acquired shares of Blockbuster's Class A common stock for $8.9 million to maintain its ownership position at no less than 80% for tax consolidation purposes. This purchase of subsidiary stock is reflected as part of acquisitions. Net cash expenditures for investing activities of $715.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 principally reflect the acquisition of BET and capital expenditures of $207.8 million partially offset by proceeds from dispositions of radio stations and other assets for approximately $230.4 million.

Financing Activities. Financing activities of $772.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002 principally reflect the repayment of notes and debentures of $736.5 million, net repayment of bank debt of $415.6 million and the purchase of treasury stock for $506.4 million partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of senior notes of $696.4 million and from the exercise of stock options of $248.8 million. Financing activities of $757.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 reflect the payment of bank debt and purchase of treasury stock partially offset by proceeds from the issuance of senior notes and debentures.

Cash paid for income taxes for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was approximately $314 million versus $183 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. For full year 2001, cash paid for income taxes was favorably impacted by the one-time utilization of certain tax attributes primarily related to pre-merger related activities of CBS, the recognition of tax benefits associated with non-recurring items and the deferral of the obligation to make 2001 federal estimated tax payments until 2002 as a result of the events of September 11. As of June 30, 2002, given the higher operating income and the absence of the 2001 non-recurring items, cash taxes for the full year are expected to be in the range of approximately $800 million to $1.0 billion.

Share Repurchase Program During the first half of 2002 on a trade date basis, the Company repurchased 11.1 million shares of its Class B Common Stock for approximately $493.5 million under its share repurchase program, of which $197.2 million was spent in the second quarter for 4.1 million shares. From July 1 through August 7, 2002, the Company repurchased 6.0 million shares of its Class B Common Stock for approximately $220.2 million.

The Company's long-term debt is presented net of an aggregate unamortized premium of $83.4 million at June 30, 2002 and $49.4 million at December 31, 2001.

At June 30, 2002, the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants contained in its credit agreements.

On March 19, 2002, the Company repurchased $13.3 million of its 7.875% debentures due 2023 at a price equal to 104.9% of the principal amount.

On April 25, 2002, the Company issued $700 million of 5.625% senior notes due May 1, 2007. Interest on these notes will be paid semi-annually.

On May 6, 2002, the Company repurchased $7.5 million of the 7.875% debentures due 2023 at a price equal to 104.9% of the principal amount.

On June 15, 2002, $2.6 million of the 8.875% senior subordinated notes due 2007 were redeemed at a redemption price equal to 104.4% of the principal amount.

At June 30, 2002, the Company had classified approximately $1.1 billion of commercial paper and other debt scheduled to mature within the next twelve months as long-term debt, reflecting its intent and ability, through the existence of unused revolving credit facilities, to refinance this debt on a long-term basis. Debt, including the current portion, as a percentage of total capitalization of the Company was 15% at both June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company continually projects anticipated cash requirements, which include capital expenditures, share repurchases, acquisitions, and principal payments on its outstanding indebtedness, as well as cash flows generated from operating activity available to meet these needs. Any net cash funding requirements are financed with short-term borrowings (primarily commercial paper) and long-term debt. Commercial paper borrowings, which also accommodate day-to-day changes in funding requirements, are backed by committed bank facilities that may be utilized in the event that commercial paper borrowings are not available. The Company's strong credit position, which is reflected by an A-/A3 rating, affords access to the capital markets. The Company anticipates that scheduled debt maturities in 2002 and 2003 will be funded with cash flows generated from operating activities and proceeds from the issuance of debt. The Company continually evaluates the relative cost of short and long-term debt in conjunction with refinancing risk. There are no provisions in any of the Company's material financing agreements that would cause an acceleration of the obligation in the event of a downgrade in the Company's debt ratings.

The Company filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission registering debt securities, preferred stock and warrants of Viacom that may be issued for aggregate gross proceeds of $5.0 billion. The registration statement was first declared effective on January 8, 2001. The net proceeds from the sale of the offered securities may be used by Viacom for general corporate purposes, including repayment of borrowings, working capital and capital expenditures; or for such other purposes as may be specified in the applicable Prospectus Supplement. To date, the Company has issued approximately $1.04 billion of securities under the shelf registration statement.

Legal Matters

Antitrust. The Company, Blockbuster and Paramount Home Entertainment and other major motion picture studios received a directed verdict in their favor at the close of the plaintiffs' evidence at trial in the lawsuit filed on July 21, 1999 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas by one former and three present independent video retailers. The plaintiffs alleged that the Company and the studios conspired among themselves and with Blockbuster to restrain competition in the nationwide market for distribution of videocassettes for rental to the public in violation of federal and California law. Plaintiffs sought injunctive relief under federal law as well as triple the amount of the alleged actual damages to themselves and those similarly situated under California statutes. Plaintiffs have filed an appeal to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. In January 2001, plaintiffs filed a substantially similar complaint with approximately 200 additional named plaintiffs in Superior Court for the County of Los Angeles. This complaint also sought certification of a nationwide class of similarly situated plaintiffs. On January 8, 2002, the California court denied plaintiffs' motion for class certification. Plaintiffs have appealed such denial of class certification by the California court. The Company believes that the plaintiffs' position in these litigations is without merit and intends to continue to defend itself vigorously in the litigations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Filings include claims for individuals suffering from mesothelioma, a rare cancer which is allegedly caused solely by exposure to asbestos, lung cancer, a cancer which may be caused by various factors, one of which is alleged to be asbestos exposure, other cancers, and conditions that are substantially less serious, including claims brought on behalf of individuals who are asymptomatic as to an allegedly asbestos-related disease. Only a very small percentage of the Company's pending asbestos claims that identify the alleged injury contain allegations that the plaintiff's exposure to asbestos resulted in cancer; in recent filings in which the Company knows the nature of the claimed injury, the percentage of cancer claims has been declining significantly. In more than 50% of the claims, the plaintiff has not yet identified the claimed injury.

The Company believes that its reserves and insurance are adequate to cover its asbestos liabilities.

sums owing under these arrangements. The Company however, believes that the resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated results of operations.

Market Risk

The Company uses derivative financial instruments to modify its exposure to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. The Company does not hold or enter into financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. The foreign exchange hedging instruments used are spot, forward and option contracts. The foreign exchange contracts have principally been used to hedge the British Pound, the Australian Dollar, the Japanese Yen, the Canadian Dollar, the Singapore Dollar and the Euro. The Company designates forward contracts used to hedge future production costs as cash flow hedges. Additionally, the Company enters into non-designated forward contracts to hedge non-dollar denominated cash flows and foreign currency balances. The change in fair value of the non-designated contracts is included in current period earnings as part of "Other items, net."

The Company's interest expense is exposed to movements in short-term rates. Swap agreements are used to modify this exposure. This includes both fixed to variable rate swaps, which are designated as fair value hedges and variable to fixed rate swaps, which are designated as cash flow hedges. As of June 30, 2002, if the swaps were unwound, we would receive approximately $30.3 million.

The effective portion of the change in fair value of cash flow hedges is reported in other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same period in which the hedged transaction affects earnings. During the next twelve months through June 2003, approximately $5.6 million will be amortized into earnings. The ineffective portion included in earnings was not material. The change in value of the fair value hedges and the hedged instruments is reported in earnings for the periods presented.

The variable rate portion of the Company's debt is affected by fluctuations in interest rates. Based on the amount of variable rate debt outstanding on June 30, 2002, a 100 basis point change in interest rates would cause a $25.2 million change in annual interest expense.

The Company continually monitors its positions with, and credit quality of, the financial institutions which are counterparties to its financial instruments. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the agreements. However, the Company does not anticipate nonperformance by the counterparties. The Company's receivables do not represent significant concentrations of credit risk at June 30, 2002, due to the wide variety of customers, markets and geographic areas to which the Company's products and services are sold.

Plaintiffs have filed an appeal to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The lawsuit, as previously described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001, included claims alleging conspiracy to restrain competition in the nationwide market for distribution of videocassettes for rental to the public in violation of federal and California law.

WHEREAS, the parties who have heretofore entered into the Credit Agreement now desire to amend Section 10.8 of the Credit Agreement to permit the Borrower to purchase shares of its common stock;

WHEREAS, the parties now desire to reduce the Tranche A Loan Commitments of the Banks.

NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Amendment. Section 10.8 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

10.8. Dividends and Purchase of Stock. The Borrower shall not declare any dividends (other than dividends payable in common stock of the Borrower) on any shares of any class of its common stock, or apply any of its property or assets to the purchase, redemption or other retirement of, or set apart any sum for the payment of any dividends on, or for the purchase, redemption or other retirement of, or make any other distribution by reduction of common stock or otherwise in respect of, any shares of any class of common stock of the Borrower, or permit any Subsidiary so to do, or permit any Subsidiary to purchase or acquire any shares of any class of common stock of the Borrower, except for

(i) amounts applied to the payment of quarterly ordinary common stock dividends that on an annualized basis do not exceed an aggregate of $90 million in the first four Fiscal Quarters following any initial public issuance of its common stock, $115 million for the next following four Fiscal Quarters, $130 million for the next following four Fiscal Quarters, $145 million for the next following four Fiscal Quarters and $160 million for the next following four Fiscal Quarters; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not pay any such dividends if there then exists, or the payment thereof should cause, a breach in the financial covenants set forth in Article VIII; and

(ii) amounts applied to the purchase of its common stock that do not exceed an aggregate of $100 million; provided that, any amounts so applied shall correspondingly reduce the remaining amounts permitted by this section to be applied to the payment of ordinary common stock dividends during the four fiscal quarter period in which the purchase occurs or, if such remaining amount is less than the purchase amount, to further reduce the amount available for the payment of ordinary common stock dividends in the next immediately succeeding four fiscal quarter period by the amount of any excess.

SECTION 2. Reduction of Tranche A Loan Commitments. Pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby requests and the Banks hereby agree that upon effectiveness of the Amendment, the Tranche A Loan Commitments of the Banks shall be permanently reduced ratably in the amount of $100,000,000.

SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants that as of the date hereof (i) the representations and warranties contained in Article VII of the Credit Agreement (other than those stated to be made as of a particular date) are true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as though made on the date hereof, and (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or be continuing under the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5. Miscellaneous. (a) Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

(b) Except as amended hereby, all of the terms of the Credit Agreement shall remain and continue in full force and effect and are hereby confirmed in all respects.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Amendment to be duly executed as of the date first above written.
