Item 4. Description of Securities.
-------------------------
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
--------------------------------------
Philippe P. Dauman, Esq., Executive Vice President, Chief Administrative
Officer, General Counsel, Secretary and a director of Viacom Inc. has rendered
an opinion stating that under applicable state law the shares of Class B Common
Stock to which the Registration Statement relates will be, when issued, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable. As of April 3, 1995, Mr. Dauman held 1,064
shares of Class A Common Stock and 8,365 shares of Class B Common Stock and
options to acquire 320,000 shares of Class B Common Stock.
Item 6. Indemnification of Officers and Directors.
-----------------------------------------
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") empowers a
Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who was or is, or is threatened to
be made, a party to any threatened, pending or complete action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of such corporation) by reason of the fact that
such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such
corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a
director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses
(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action,
suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a
manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify such person against expenses
(including attorneys' fees) in actions brought by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor under the same conditions, except
that no indemnification is permitted in respect of any claim, issue or matter as
to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation
unless and to the extent the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the
court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application
that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and
reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the Court of Chancery or
other such court shall deem proper. To the extent such person has been
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action referred to
above, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation must
indemnify such person against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith. The indemnification
and advancement of expenses provided for in, or granted pursuant to, Section 145
is not exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or
advancement of expenses may be entitled under any by-law, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
<PAGE>
Section 145 also provides that a corporation may maintain insurance against
liabilities for which indemnification is not expressly provided by the statute.
Article VI of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of Viacom Inc.
provides for indemnification of the directors, officers, employees and agents of
Viacom Inc. to the full extent currently permitted by the DGCL.
In addition, Viacom Inc.'s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as
permitted by Section 102(b) of the DGCL, limits directors' liability to Viacom
Inc. and its stockholders by eliminating liability in damages for breach of
fiduciary duty. Article VII of Viacom Inc.'s Restated Certificate of
Incorporation provides that neither Viacom Inc. nor its stockholders may recover
damages from Viacom Inc.'s directors for breach of their fiduciary duties in the
performance of their duties as directors of Viacom Inc. This provision does not,
however, have the effect of indemnifying any director of Viacom Inc. in the case
of liability (i) for a breach of the director's duty of loyalty, (ii) for acts
or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful
stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL or (iv)
for any transactions for which the director derived an improper personal
benefit.

Item 9. Undertakings.
------------
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) to include any
prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"); (ii) to reflect in the Prospectus any facts or
events after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the
Registration Statement; (iii) to include any material information with respect
to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration
Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if
the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
clauses is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration
statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
offering.
(4) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of any
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be
deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
<PAGE>
(c) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or cause to be
delivered with the Prospectus to each employee to whom the Prospectus is sent or
given a copy of the Registrant's annual report to stockholders for its last
fiscal year, unless such employee otherwise has received a copy of such report,
in which case the Registrant shall state in the Prospectus that it will promptly
furnish, without charge, a copy of such report on written request of the
employee. If the last fiscal year of the Registrant has ended within 120 days
prior to the use of the Prospectus, the annual report of the Registrant for the
preceding fiscal year may be so delivered, but within such 120 day period the
annual report for the last fiscal year will be furnished to each such employee.
(d) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to transmit or cause to be
transmitted to all employees participating in the plans who do not otherwise
receive such material as stockholders of the Registrant, at the time and in the
manner such material is sent to its stockholders copies of all reports, proxy
statements and other communications distributed to its stockholders generally.

Dear Sirs:
This opinion is delivered in connection with the Registration Statement on
Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") of Viacom Inc. ("Viacom") filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Act"), with respect to 10,300,000 shares of Viacom's Class B Common Stock,
par value $0.01 per share (the "Securities"), to be issued in accordance with
the provisions of the Viacom Inc. 1994 Long-Term Management Incentive Plan (as
amended and restated as of April 27, 1995), the Viacom Inc. Stock Option Plan
for Outside Directors and the Viacom Inc. 1994 Stock Option Plan for Outside
Directors (collectively, the "Plans").
In this connection, and as the basis for the opinion expressed below, I
have examined and relied on originals or copies, certified or otherwise
identified to my satisfaction of such documents, corporate records and other
instruments, and have made such examinations of law and fact as I have deemed
necessary or appropriate for the purpose of giving the opinion expressed below.
I am a member of the bar of the State of New York and the opinion set forth
below is limited to matters controlled by the laws of New York, the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware and the Federal laws of the United
States of America.
Based upon the foregoing, it is my opinion that when (i) the applicable
provisions of the Act and of such "Blue Sky" or other state securities laws as
may be applicable shall have been complied with, and (ii) the Securities shall
have been issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the Plans and
paid for in full, the Securities will be legally issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
