** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) Acquired pursuant to a merger between CBS Corporation (formerly know as Viacom Inc.) and Viacom Merger Sub Inc. (the Merger), in which each share of Viacom Class B common stock was exchanged for 0.5 shares of CBS Corporation Class B common stock and 0.5 shares of New Viacom Corp. (New Viacom) Class B common stock with cash in lieu of any fractional shares of CBS Corporation Class B common stock and New Viacom Class B common stock. On January 3, 2006, the first business day following the effective time of the Merger, the opening price of CBS Corporation Class B common stock on the New York Stock Exchange was $25.60 per share and the opening price of New Viacom Class B common stock on the New York Stock Exchange was $41.12 per share. Viacom Inc. changed its name to CBS Corporation (CBS) upon completion of the Merger.
(2) Right to buy under Issuer's stock option plan for outside directors.
(3) Current.
(4) In the Merger, each grant of stock options to buy Viacom Class B common stock was converted into an equal number of stock options to buy CBS Corporation Class B common stock and New Viacom Class B common stock determined by multiplying the number of outstanding stock options included in the grant before the Merger by 0.488609. The per share exercise price of the converted stock options was determined by dividing the pre-Merger exercise price by 1.273438 for the CBS options and by 0.792802 for the New Viacom options.
(5) These options vest in three equal annual installments beginning on January 31, 2005.
(6) These options vest in three equal annual installments beginning on January 31, 2006.
(7) Granted under the Issuer's 2005 RSU Plan for Outside Directors.
(8) The Restricted Share Units will vest May 26, 2006 and will be settled by delivery of a corresponding number of shares of the Issuer's Class B Common Stock upon vesting, unless the Reporting Person has elected to defer settlement.
(9) In the Merger, each grant of Restricted Share Units of Viacom Class B common stock was converted into an equal number of Restricted Share Units of CBS Corporation Class B common stock and Restricted Share Units of New Viacom Class B common stock determined by multiplying the number of restricted share units included in the grant before the Merger by 0.488609.
