PRENTICE HALL COMPUTER PUBLISHING DIVISION RETIREMENT PLAN Date: June 28, 1996 By: /s/ Marguerite Heilman ------------------------------------ Marguerite Heilman Member of the Administrative Committee REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS June 28, 1996 To the Participants and Administrator of the Prentice Hall Computer Publishing Division Retirement Plan In our opinion, the financial statements in the accompanying index present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Prentice Hall Computer Publishing Division Retirement Plan (the "Plan") at December 31, 1995 and 1994, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above. Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The additional information listed in the accompanying index is presented for purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is additional information required by ERISA. The Fund Information in the statement of net assets available for benefits and the statement of changes in net assets available for benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets available for benefits for each fund. The supplemental schedules and the Fund Information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

See accompanying notes to the financial statements. F-6 PRENTICE HALL COMPUTER PUBLISHING DIVISION RETIREMENT PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Note A - Plan Description The following is a brief description of the Prentice Hall Computer Publishing Division Retirement Plan (the "Plan") and is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for more complete information regarding the Plan. (See Note G) The Plan is a defined contribution plan offered on a voluntary basis to substantially all employees of the Prentice Hall Computer Publishing Division of Prentice Hall Inc. Eligible employees may become participants in the Plan following the attainment of age 21 and the completion of twelve months of employment service, generally measured from date of hire. The Plan is subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"), and is administered by the Administrative Committee appointed by the Board of Directors of the Company (as defined below). Prentice Hall Inc. was a wholly-owned subsidiary of Paramount Communications Inc. ("Paramount") which became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Viacom Inc. ("Viacom", collectively with Paramount the "Company" or "Employer") in July 1994 (the "Merger"). In March 1994, pursuant to a tender offer for Paramount, all shares of Paramount common stock held by the Plan were tendered to Viacom. The Plan received cash of $107 per share for approximately half of the tendered shares and received certain securities of Viacom for its remaining shares of Paramount common stock upon completion of the Merger in July 1994. Effective January 3, 1995, Paramount was merged into Viacom International Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Viacom Inc., and Paramount ceased to exist as a separate corporate legal entity. Included in the Viacom securities received by the Plan as part of the Merger were certain contingent value rights ("CVRs") representing the right to receive cash or Viacom securities, at Viacom's option, based on the market value of Viacom Class B common stock during a one, two or three year period, at Viacom's option, following the merger. During May 1995, the CVRs held by the Plan were sold and the proceeds were invested in Viacom Class B Common Stock. Investment Programs The investment programs of the Plan during the years presented are as follows (See Note G): Participant contributions - A Participant may contribute to the Plan from 1% to 16% of the Participant's base pay, including certain commissions, subject to adjustment to comply with the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"). A Participant's contributions can be made with before-tax or after-tax dollars, subject to an overall maximum of 10% on before-tax contributions. A Participant may change or suspend the amount of the Participant's contribution at any time effective as of the first payday of any calendar quarter, however, any suspension of contributions must be for a minimum of ninety days. Employer contributions - The Employer will provide a matching contribution of 50% of the first 6% of each Participant's contribution. In addition, the Employer shall contribute a retirement contribution in an amount equal to 3 1/2% of each eligible Participant's compensation. Participants vest 20% in the Employer's matching and retirement contributions after the completion of two full years of service and continue at a rate of 20% for each of the next three full years of service with an additional 20% after the completion of five years of service. Amounts which have been forfeited in accordance with provisions of the Plan may be used to defray administrative expenses or reduce future Employer contributions. Employer matching contributions of $93,717 and $70,112 during the years ended December 31, 1995 and December 31, 1994, respectively, were forfeited by terminating employees before those amounts became vested. F-7 PRENTICE HALL COMPUTER PUBLISHING DIVISION RETIREMENT PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Participants may invest their contributions and the Employer's matching and retirement contributions in one or more of the following investment programs in increments of 10%: Viacom Inc. Stock Fund Contributions to this fund are invested in Viacom Class B Common Stock. In addition, the fund holds all consideration received in exchange for shares of Paramount Common Stock as a result of the Merger. Prior to the Merger, the fund invested in Paramount Common Stock. Dividends received on Paramount Common Stock in the fund were reinvested in Paramount Common Stock. Investments in the Viacom Inc. Stock Fund qualify as party-in-interest. Chemical Banking Corporation is the trustee of this fund. The fund is managed by the Administrative Committee. Equity Fund This fund invests in equity securities, securities convertible into equity securities and/or a commingled equity trust and is designed to approximate the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index. Bankers Trust Company is the trustee and investment manager of this fund and therefore, is identified as a party in interest. Income Investment Fund This fund invests in fixed income securities issued by financial institutions and the U.S. Government and its agencies. This fund is designed to preserve capital, but it is not risk free. Bankers Trust Company is the trustee and investment manager of this fund and therefore, is identified as a party in interest. Balanced Fund The fund, of which J. P. Morgan is the investment manager, invests in a balanced combination of a J. P. Morgan managed bond fund and an equity index fund. This fund was instituted in 1994. Chemical Banking Corporation is the trustee of this fund. Such direction may be revised by the Participant quarterly. The number of Participants in each fund at December 31, 1995 was as follows: Viacom Inc. Stock Fund........................................... 186 Equity Fund...................................................... 356 Income Investment Fund........................................... 581 Balanced Fund.................................................... 141 The total number of Participants in the Plan at December 31, 1995 is less than the sum of the number of Participants shown above because many of the Participants participated in more than one fund. Note B- Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The accounting records of the Plan are maintained on an accrual basis. Investments are stated at aggregate current value. Investments in securities which are traded on national securities exchanges are valued at the last reported sales price on the last business day of the year; investments traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices. The Investment Pricing Department of the Trustee establishes current values for other investments which do not have an established market. All costs and expenses incurred with regard to the purchase, sale or transfer of investments are borne by the Plan. Expenses for administering the Plan may be paid by using Participants' forfeitures. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments represents the change in the difference between current value and the cost of investments. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. F-8 PRENTICE HALL COMPUTER PUBLISHING DIVISION RETIREMENT PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Net realized gain (loss) on disposition of investments represents the difference between the proceeds received and the average cost of investments sold. Note C - Income Tax Status The Plan is exempt from federal income tax and a Participant will not be subject to federal income tax with respect to contributions made by the Employer to the Participant's account and any earnings thereon or earnings on all Participant contributions while such amounts are held in trust. The Plan, as amended through February 1, 1995, received a favorable determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service, dated November 30, 1995, with respect to the qualified status of the Plan under Section 401(a) of the Code and the tax-exempt status of the underlying trust under Section 501(a) of the Code. Note D - Investment in Securities The net realized gain on disposition of investments was computed as follows:

F-10 PRENTICE HALL COMPUTER PUBLISHING DIVISION RETIREMENT PLAN NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) Note F - Termination Priorities In the event that the Plan is terminated, subject to conditions set forth in ERISA, the Plan provides that the net assets of the Plan be distributed to Participants in proportion to their respective interests in such net assets. Note G - Subsequent Events Effective January 1, 1996, the Plan merged with and into the Viacom Investment Plan ("VIP"), a defined contribution plan sponsored by Viacom. The following paragraphs describe the significant effects of the merger with the VIP. Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company is the trustee and custodian of VIP assets. VIP participants have the option of investing their contributions or existing account balances among the following funds within the VIP: (1) Putnam Voyager Fund; (2) Putnam Investors Fund; (3) George Putnam Fund of Boston; (4) Capital Research EuroPacific Growth Fund; (5) Putnam Fund for Growth and Income; (6) Putnam Income Fund; (7) Certus Interest Income Fund; and (8) the Viacom Common Stock Fund. Each of the funds, except for the Certus Interest Income Fund, the Capital Research EuroPacific Growth Fund and the Viacom Common Stock Fund, are registered investment companies managed by Putnam Management Company, Inc. and therefore, identified as a party-in-interest. The Certus Interest Income Fund, which is managed by Certus Financial Corporation, primarily invests in guaranteed investment contracts and bank investment contracts, some of which are created by way of the concurrent purchase of a bank guarantee contract and a United States government security. The Capital Research EuroPacific Growth Fund is a registered investment company managed by Capital Research and Management Company. Investment elections are required to be in multiples of 5% and can be changed at any time. The VIP is intended to meet the requirements of ERISA Section 404(c). Thus to the extent Participants exercise control over the investment of contributions, neither the VIP nor any VIP fiduciary will be responsible for any losses which may occur. The VIP provides for the Company matching contribution amounts equal to 50% of the first 6% of annual compensation that is contributed on a before-tax basis if base pay is $65,000 or less as of a specified date (5% of annual compensation if base pay is greater than $65,000). Participants may contribute up to 15% of annual compensation on a before-tax, after-tax or combination basis, subject to compliance with the Code limitations. The Employer retirement contribution of 3 1/2% of each eligible Participant's compensation was eliminated as of January 1, 1996. The Plan's vesting schedule will be 20% per year of service, becoming fully vested after five years. Participants are eligible to receive loans based on their account balances.
