(d)    Release. Your entitlement to the payments and benefits described in this paragraph 11 is conditioned on your execution and delivery to the Company, within sixty (60) days after your termination of employment (the “Release Deadline”), of a release in substantially the form appended hereto as Appendix A that remains in effect and becomes irrevocable after the expiration of any statutory period in which you are permitted to revoke a release (the “Release”). If you fail to execute and deliver the Release by the Release Deadline, or if you thereafter effectively revoke the Release, the Company shall be under no obligation to make any further payments or provide any further benefits to you and any payments and benefits previously provided to you pursuant to this paragraph 11 shall not have been earned. In such event, you shall promptly repay the Company any payments made and the Company’s direct cost for any benefits provided to you pursuant to this paragraph 11. The limitations of this paragraph shall not apply to the Accrued Compensation and Benefits.

(e)    Offset. The amount of payments provided in paragraph 11 in respect of the period that begins twelve (12) months after the termination of your employment shall be reduced by any compensation for services earned by you (including as an independent consultant or independent contractor) from any source in respect of the period that begins twelve (12) months after the termination of your employment and ends when the Company is no longer required to make payments pursuant to paragraph 11 (the “Offset Period”), including, without limitation, salary, sign-on or annual bonus, consulting fees, commission payments and any amounts the payment of which is deferred at your election, or with your consent, until after the expiration of the Offset Period; provided that, if the Company in its reasonable discretion determines that any grant of long-term compensation is made in substitution of the aforementioned payments, such payments shall be further reduced by the value on the date of grant, as reasonably determined by the Company, of such long-term compensation you receive. You agree to promptly notify the Company of any arrangements during the Offset Period in which you earn compensation for services and to cooperate fully with the Company in determining the amount of any such reduction.

12.    Resignation in Breach of the Agreement. If you resign prior to the expiration of the Contract Period other than for Good Reason, such resignation is a material breach of this Agreement and, without limitation of other rights or remedies available to the Company, the Company shall have no further obligations to you under this Agreement or otherwise, except to make termination payments provided in paragraph 10(a).

13.    Termination Due to Death.

(a)    Death While Employed. In the event of your death prior to the end of the Contract Period while actively employed with the Company, this Agreement shall automatically terminate. Thereafter, your designated beneficiary (or, if there is no such beneficiary, your estate) shall receive (i) any Accrued Compensation and Benefits as of the date of your death and (ii) for the year in which death occurs, any Bonus or Pro-Rated Bonus, as applicable, which you would have been eligible to receive, calculated in accordance with paragraph 19(e)(iii). In no event shall a distribution be made pursuant to clause (i) in the preceding sentence later than the 60^th day following your death and a distribution pursuant to clause (ii) in the preceding sentence shall be made at the same time and in the same manner as if you were still actively employed with the Company.

(b)    Death After the End of Employment. In the event of your death while you are entitled to receive compensation or benefits under paragraphs 11 or 15, in lieu of such payments your designated beneficiary (or, if there is no such beneficiary, your estate) shall receive, to the extent not previously paid to you, (i) continuation of Salary pursuant to the applicable paragraph through the date of death; (ii) if you were entitled to receive compensation or benefits under paragraph 11, for the year in which death occurs,

Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

January 1, 2018

Page 10

any Bonus or Pro-Rated Bonus, as applicable, for the year in which death occurs, payable under such paragraph, calculated in accordance with paragraph 19(e)(iii); and (iii) any Accrued Compensation and Benefits. In no event shall a distribution be made pursuant to clauses (i) and (iii) in the preceding sentence later than the 60^th day following your death and a distribution pursuant to clause (ii) in the preceding sentence shall be made at the same time and in the same manner as if you were still actively employed with the Company.

14.    Long-Term Disability. In the event you are absent due to a LTD and you are receiving compensation under a Viacom LTD plan, then, effective on the date you begin receiving compensation under such plan, (i) this Agreement shall terminate without any further action required by the Company, (ii) you shall be considered an “at-will” employee of the Company, and (iii) you shall have no guarantee of specific future employment nor continuing employment generally when your receipt of compensation under a Viacom LTD plan ends, except as required by applicable law. In the event of such termination of this Agreement, you shall receive (i) any Accrued Compensation and Benefits and (ii) for the year in which such termination occurs, any Bonus or Pro-Rated Bonus, as applicable, which you would have been entitled to receive, calculated in accordance with paragraph 19(e)(iii). Except as set forth in the previous sentence, the compensation provided to you under the applicable LTD plan shall be in lieu of any compensation from the Company (including, but not limited to, the Salary provided under this Agreement or otherwise). Your participation in any other Viacom benefit plans or programs shall be governed by the terms of the applicable plan or program documents, award agreements and certificates.

15.    Non-Renewal. If the Company does not extend or renew this Agreement at the end of the Contract Period and you have not entered into a new contractual relationship with the Company or Viacom, your continuing employment, if any, with the Company or Viacom shall be “at-will” and may be terminated at any time by either party. If the Company or Viacom terminates your employment during the twelve (12) month period commencing with the last day of the Contract Period while you are an employee at-will, the Company shall continue to pay your Salary (at the rate in effect on the date of termination) at the same time and in the same manner as if you had not terminated employment for the balance, if any, of such twelve (12) month period; provided, however, that (i) you shall not be entitled to such Salary continuation if the Company terminates your employment for reasons constituting Cause and (ii) any such Salary continuation shall be subject to offset as set forth in paragraph 11(e) above, without giving effect to the twelve (12) month period referenced therein.

16.    Severance Plan Adjustment. In the event that your employment with the Company terminates pursuant to paragraph 11 or 15, and, at the time of your termination of employment there is in effect a Viacom severance plan (a “Severance Plan”) for which you would have been eligible to participate but for your having entered into this Agreement or being a Specified Employee and which provides for severance compensation that is greater than the amounts to which you are entitled under paragraphs 11(c)(i) and 11(c)(ii) or paragraph 15, then the amounts, but not the time or form of payment, of your severance compensation under this Agreement shall automatically be adjusted to equal those that would have been provided to you under the Severance Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, any payment entitlement pursuant to this paragraph 16 is in lieu of, and not in addition to, any severance compensation to which you may otherwise be entitled under this Agreement. Notwithstanding any adjustment to the amount of your entitlements pursuant to this paragraph 16, all other provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect, including, without limitation, paragraphs 6, 7, 8 and 9.

17.    Further Events on Termination of Employment.

(a)    Termination of Benefits. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, your participation in all Viacom benefit plans and programs (including, without limitation, medical and dental

coverage, life insurance coverage, vacation accrual, all retirement and the related excess plans, STD and LTD plans and accidental death and dismemberment and business travel and accident insurance and your rights with respect to any outstanding equity compensation awards) shall be governed by the terms of the applicable plan and program documents, award agreements and certificates.

(b)    Resignation from Official Positions. If your employment with the Company terminates for any reason, you shall be deemed to have resigned at that time from any and all officer or director positions that you may have held with the Company or Viacom and all board seats or other positions in other entities to which you have been designated by the Company or Viacom or which you have held on behalf of the Company or Viacom. If, for any reason, this paragraph 17(b) is deemed insufficient to effectuate such resignation, you hereby authorize the Secretary and any Assistant Secretary of Viacom Inc. to execute any documents or instruments which Viacom Inc. may deem necessary or desirable to effectuate such resignation or resignations, and to act as your attorney-in fact.

18.    Survival; Remedies.

(a)    Survival. Your obligations under paragraphs 6, 7, 8 and 9 shall remain in full force and effect for the entire period provided therein notwithstanding the termination of your employment for any reason or the expiration of the Contract Period.

(b)    Modification of Terms. You and the Company acknowledge and agree that the restrictions and remedies contained in paragraphs 6, 7, 8 and 9 are reasonable and that it is your intention and the intention of the Company that such restrictions and remedies shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible by law. If a court of competent jurisdiction shall find that any such restriction or remedy is unenforceable, but would be enforceable if some part were deleted or modified, then such restriction or remedy shall apply with the deletion or modification necessary to make it enforceable and shall in no way affect any other provision of this Agreement or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement.

(c)    Injunctive Relief. The Company has entered into this Agreement in order to obtain the benefit of your unique skills, talent, and experience. You acknowledge and agree that any violation of paragraphs 6, 7, 8 and 9 shall result in irreparable damage to the Company, and, accordingly, the Company may obtain injunctive and other equitable relief for any breach or threatened breach of such paragraphs, in addition to any other remedies available to the Company. To the extent permitted by applicable law, you hereby waive any right to the posting of a bond in connection with any injunction or other equitable relief sought by the Company and you agree not to seek such relief in your opposition to any application for relief the Company shall make.

(d)    Other Remedies. In the event that you materially violate the provisions of paragraphs 6, 7, 8 or 9 at any time during the Non-Competition Period or any period in which the Company is making payments to you pursuant to this Agreement, (i) any outstanding stock options or other undistributed equity awards granted to you by the Company shall immediately be forfeited, whether vested or unvested; and (ii) the Company’s obligation to make any further payments or to provide benefits (other than Accrued Compensation and Benefits) to you pursuant to this Agreement shall terminate. The Company shall give you written notice prior to commencing any remedy under this paragraph 18(d) or, if no cure period is applicable, contemporaneous with such commencement, setting forth the nature of any alleged violation in reasonable detail and the conduct required to cure such violation. Except for a violation which, by its nature, cannot reasonably be expected to be cured, you shall have ten (10) business days from the giving of such notice within which to cure; provided, however, that, if the Company reasonably expects irreparable injury from a delay of ten (10) business days, the Company may give you notice of

such shorter period within which to cure as is reasonable under the circumstances, which may include commencement of a remedy without notice and with immediate effect. The remedies under this paragraph 18 are in addition to any other remedies the Company may have against you, including under this Agreement or any other agreement, under any equity or other incentive or compensation plan or under applicable law.

19.    General Provisions.

(a)    Deductions and Withholdings. In the event of the termination of your employment for any reason, the Company reserves the right, to the extent permitted by law and in addition to any other remedy the Company may have, to deduct from any monies that are otherwise payable to you and that do not constitute deferred compensation within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the regulations promulgated thereunder or any related guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department (“Section 409A”) all monies and the replacement value of any property you may owe to the Company at the time of or subsequent to the termination of your employment with the Company. The Company shall not make any such deduction from any amount that constitutes deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A. To the extent any law requires an employee’s consent to the offset provided in this paragraph and permits such consent to be obtained in advance, this Agreement shall be deemed to provide the required consent. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or in any Company benefit plan, all amounts payable under this Agreement shall be paid in accordance with the Company’s ordinary payroll practices less deductions and income and payroll tax withholding as may be required under applicable law. Any property (including shares of Viacom Inc. Class B Common Stock), benefits and perquisites provided to you under this Agreement, including, without limitation, COBRA payments made on your behalf, shall be taxable to you as provided by law.

(b)    Cash and Equity Awards Modifications. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company reserves the right to modify or amend unilaterally the terms and conditions of your cash compensation, stock option awards or other equity awards, without first asking your consent, to the extent that the Company considers such modification or amendment necessary or advisable to comply with any law, regulation, ruling, judicial decision, accounting standard, regulatory guidance or other legal requirement (the “Legal Requirement”) applicable to such cash compensation, stock option awards or other equity awards, provided that, except where necessary to comply with law, such amendment does not have a material adverse effect on the value of such compensation award to you. In addition, the Company may, without your consent, amend or modify your cash compensation, stock option awards or other equity awards in any manner that the Company considers necessary or advisable to ensure that such cash compensation, stock option awards or other equity awards are not subject to United States federal income tax, state or local income tax or any equivalent taxes in territories outside the United States prior to payment, exercise, vesting or settlement, as applicable, or any tax, interest or penalties pursuant to Section 409A.

(c)     Section 409A Provisions.

(i) The Company may, without your consent, amend any provision of this Agreement to the extent that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, such amendment is necessary or advisable to avoid the imposition on you of any tax, interest or penalties pursuant to Section 409A or otherwise to make this Agreement enforceable. Any such amendment shall maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent and economic benefit to you of the applicable provision.

Mr. ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

(ii) It is the intention and understanding of the parties that all amounts and benefits to which you become entitled under this Agreement will be paid or provided to you pursuant to a fixed schedule within the meaning of Section 409A. Notwithstanding such intention and understanding, in the event that you are a specified employee as determined by Viacom Inc. (a “Specified Employee”) at the time of your Separation from Service (as defined below), then to the extent that any amount or benefit owed to you under this Agreement (x) constitutes an amount of deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A and (y) is considered for purposes of Section 409A to be owed to you by virtue of your Separation from Service, then such amount or benefit shall not be paid or provided during the six (6) month period following the date of your Separation from Service and instead shall be paid or provided on the first day of the seventh month following your date of Separation from Service; provided, however, that such delay shall apply only to the extent that such payments and benefits, in the aggregate, exceed the lesser of an amount equal to (x) two (2) times your annualized compensation (as determined under the Code Section 409A regulations) and (y) two (2) times the applicable Code Section 401(a)(17) annual compensation limit for the year in which your termination occurs; provided, further, that any payments made during such six (6) month period shall first be made to cover all costs relating to medical, dental and life insurance coverage to which you are entitled under this Agreement and thereafter shall be made in respect of other amounts or benefits owed to you.

(iii) As used herein, “Separation from Service” shall mean either (i) the termination of your employment with the Company and its affiliates, provided that such termination of employment meets the requirements of a separation of service determined using the default provisions set forth in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-(1)(h) or the successor provision thereto or (ii) such other date that constitutes a separation from service with the Company and its affiliates meeting the requirements of the default provisions set forth in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-(1)(h) or the successor provision thereto. For purposes of this definition, "affiliate" means any corporation that is in the same controlled group of corporations (within the meaning of Code Section 414(b)) as the Company and any trade or business that is under common control with the Company (within the meaning of Code Section 414(c)), determined in accordance with the default provision set forth in Treasury Regulation §1.409A-(1)(h)(3).

(iv) If under any provision of this Agreement you become entitled to be paid Salary continuation, then each payment of Salary during the relevant continuation period shall be considered, and is hereby designated as, a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A (and consequently your entitlement to such Salary continuation shall not be considered an entitlement to a single payment of the aggregate amount to be paid during the relevant continuation period).

(d)    No Duplicative Payments. The payments and benefits provided in this Agreement in respect to the termination of employment and non-renewal of this Agreement are in lieu of any other salary, bonus or benefits payable by the Company, including, without limitation, any severance or income continuation or protection under any Viacom plan that may now or hereafter exist. All such payments and benefits shall constitute liquidated damages, paid in full and final settlement of all obligations of Viacom to you under this Agreement.

(e)    Payment of Bonus Compensation.

(i) The Bonus for any Company fiscal year under this Agreement shall be paid by March 15^th of the following year.

(ii) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, your Bonus shall be prorated (A) to apply only to that part of the Company’s fiscal year which falls within the Contract Period and (B) to the extent the Company's fiscal year is less than a 12-month fiscal year (a “Pro-Rated Bonus”).  Following expiration of the Contract Period, you shall receive a Pro-Rated Bonus for the period of the Company’s fiscal year which falls within the Contract Period only (A) in the event that the Company terminates your employment without Cause prior to the date on which employees of the Company become entitled to Bonus under the STIP, (B) as provided in paragraph 11(c)(ii) or (C) as provided in the STIP.

(iii) Any Bonus or Pro-Rated Bonus payable pursuant to paragraphs 11, 13 or 14 shall be paid at the lesser of (X) your Target Bonus amount or (Y) your Target Bonus amount, adjusted based on the Company Performance Factor for the relevant year.

(f)    Parachute Payment Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that you receive any payments or distributions, whether payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, that constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and the net after‑tax amount of the parachute payment is less than the net after-tax amount if the aggregate payment to be made to you were three times your “base amount” (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code) less $1.00, then the aggregate of the amounts constituting the parachute payment shall be reduced to an amount that shall equal three times your base amount, less $1.00. The determinations to be made with respect to this paragraph 19(f) shall be made by a certified public accounting firm designated by the Company and reasonably acceptable to you.

(g)    Adjustments to Bonuses and Long-Term Incentive Compensation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company shall be entitled to adjust the amount of any Bonus or any award of long-term incentive compensation if the financial statements of Viacom or the business unit on which the calculation or determination of the Bonus or award of long-term incentive compensation were based are subsequently restated and, in the judgment of the Company, the financial statements as so restated would have resulted in a smaller Bonus or long-term incentive compensation award if such information had been known at the time the Bonus or award had originally been calculated or determined. In addition, in the event of such a restatement: (i) the Company may require you, and you agree, to repay to the Company the amount by which the Bonus as originally calculated or determined exceeds the Bonus as adjusted pursuant to the preceding sentence; and (ii) the Company may cancel, without any payment therefor, the portion of any award of long-term incentive compensation that exceeds the award adjusted pursuant to the preceding sentence (or, if such portion of an award cannot be canceled because (x) in the case of stock options or other similar awards, you have previously exercised it, the Company may require you, and you agree, to repay to the Company the amount, net of any exercise price, that you realized upon exercise or (y) in the case of restricted share units or other similar awards, shares of Class B Common Stock were delivered to you in settlement of such award, the Company may require you, and you agree to return the shares of Class B Common Stock, or if such shares were sold by you, return any proceeds realized on the sale of such shares).

(h)    Mediation. Prior to the commencement of any legal proceeding relating to your employment, you and the Company agree to attempt to mediate the dispute using a professional mediator from JAMS, The Resolution Experts (“JAMS”) or the International Institute for Conflict Prevention and Resolution (“CPR”). Within a period of 30 days after a written request for mediation by either you or the Company, the parties agree to convene with the mediator, for at least one session to attempt to resolve the matter. In no event will mediation delay commencement of any legal proceeding for more than 30 days absent agreement of the parties or prevent a bona fide application by either party to a court of competent jurisdiction for emergency relief. The fees of the mediator and of the JAMS or CPR, as the case may be, shall be borne by the Company.

20.    Additional Representations and Acknowledgments.

(a)    No Acceptance of Payments.

inaction with respect to any such benefit, welfare or compensation plan or program.

c/o Black Entertainment Television LLC

▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇

▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

This General Release of all Claims (this “Agreement”) is entered into by ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ (the “Executive”) and Black Entertainment Television LLC (the “Company”), effective as of _____________________.

In consideration of the promises set forth in the letter agreement between the Executive and the Company, dated January 1, 2018 (the “Employment Agreement”), the Executive and the Company agree as follows:

1.    Return of Property. All Company files, access keys and codes, desk keys, ID badges, computers, records, manuals, electronic devices, computer programs, papers, electronically stored information or documents, telephones and credit cards, and any other property of the Company in the Executive’s possession must be returned no later than the date of the Executive’s termination from the Company.

2.    General Release and Waiver of Claims.

(a)    Release. In consideration of the payments and benefits provided to the Executive under the Employment Agreement and after consultation with counsel, the Executive and each of the Executive’s respective heirs, executors, administrators, representatives, agents, insurers, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasors”) hereby irrevocably and unconditionally release and forever discharge the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates and each of their respective officers, employees, directors, shareholders and agents (“Releasees”) from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, rights, judgments, obligations, damages, demands, accountings or liabilities of whatever kind or character (collectively, “Claims”), including, without limitation, any Claims under any federal, state, local or foreign law, that the Releasors may have, or in the future may possess, arising out of (i) the Executive’s employment relationship with and service as an employee, officer or director of the Company, Viacom (as defined in the Employment Agreement) or any subsidiaries or affiliated companies and the termination of such relationship or service, and (ii) any event, condition, circumstance or obligation that occurred, existed or arose on or prior to the date hereof and relates to your employment with Viacom; provided, however, that the Executive does not release, discharge or waive any rights to (i) payments and benefits provided under the Employment Agreement that are contingent upon the execution by the Executive of this Agreement or otherwise expressly survive termination thereof and (ii) any indemnification rights the Executive may have in accordance with the Company’s governance instruments or under any director and officer liability insurance maintained by the Company with respect to liabilities arising as a result of the Executive’s service as an officer and employee of the Company.

(b)    Specific Release of ADEA Claims. In further consideration of the payments and benefits provided to the Executive under the Employment Agreement, the Releasors hereby unconditionally release and forever discharge the Releasees from any and all Claims that the Releasors may have as of the date the Executive signs this Agreement arising under the Federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended, including the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act of 1990 (“OWBPA”), and the applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (“ADEA”).  By signing this Agreement, the Executive hereby acknowledges and confirms the following:  (i) the Executive was advised by the Company in connection with his termination to consult with an attorney of his choice prior

A-1

to signing this Agreement and to have such attorney explain to the Executive the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the terms relating to the Executive’s release of claims arising under ADEA, and the Executive has in fact consulted with an attorney; (ii) the Executive was given a period of not fewer than 21 days to consider the terms of this Agreement and to consult with an attorney of his choosing with respect thereto; (iii) the Executive knowingly and voluntarily accepts the terms of this Agreement; and (iv) the Executive is providing this release and discharge only in exchange for consideration in addition to anything of value to which the Executive is already entitled.  The Executive also understands that he has seven (7) days following the date on which he signs this Agreement within which to revoke the release contained in this paragraph 2(b), by providing the Company a written notice of his revocation of the release and waiver contained in this paragraph 2(b); provided, however, that if the Executive exercises his right to revoke the release contained in this paragraph 2(b), the Executive shall not be entitled to any amounts paid to him under the termination provisions of the Employment Agreement and the Company may reclaim any such amounts paid to him and may terminate any benefits and payments that are subsequently due under the Employment Agreement, except as prohibited by the ADEA and OWBPA.

(c)    No Assignment. The Executive represents and warrants that he has not assigned any of the Claims being released under this Agreement. The Company may assign this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any affiliated company or subsidiary of, or any successor in interest to, the Company.

3.    Proceedings. The Executive has not filed, and agrees not to initiate or cause to be initiated on his behalf, any complaint, charge, claim or proceeding against the Releasees before any local, state or federal agency, court or other body relating to his employment or the termination of his employment, other than with respect to the obligations of the Company to the Executive under the Employment Agreement (each, individually, a “Proceeding”), and agrees not to participate voluntarily in any Proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the prohibitions in this paragraph 3 shall not apply to the Executive’s right to file a charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (“EEOC”) or similar local or state agency, or participate in an investigation conducted by such agency. The Executive waives any right he may have to benefit in any manner from any relief (whether monetary or otherwise) (i) arising out of any Proceeding and/or (ii) in connection with any claim pursued by any administrative agency, including but not limited to the EEOC, on the Executive’s behalf and, in the event the Executive is awarded money, compensation or benefits, the Executive shall immediately remit such award to the Company.

4.    Remedies. In the event the Executive initiates or voluntarily participates in any Proceeding in violation of this Agreement, or if he fails to abide by any of the terms of this Agreement or his post-termination obligations contained in the Employment Agreement, the Company may, in addition to any other remedies it may have, reclaim any amounts paid to him under the termination provisions of the Employment Agreement and terminate any benefits or payments that are subsequently due under the Employment Agreement, except as prohibited by the ADEA and OWBPA, without waiving the release granted herein.  The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law available to the Company for breach of any of his post-termination obligations under the Employment Agreement or his obligations under paragraphs 2 and 3 herein would be inadequate and that damages flowing from such a breach may not readily be susceptible to being measured in monetary terms.  Accordingly, the Executive acknowledges, consents and agrees that, in addition to any other rights or remedies that the Company may have at law or in equity or as may otherwise be set forth in the Employment Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to seek a temporary restraining order or a preliminary or permanent injunction, or both, without bond or other security, restraining the Executive from breaching his post-termination obligations under the Employment Agreement or his obligations under paragraphs 2 and 3 herein.  Such injunctive relief in any court shall be available to the Company, in lieu of, or prior to or pending determination in, any arbitration proceeding.

A-2

The Executive understands that by entering into this Agreement he shall be limiting the availability of certain remedies that he may have against the Company and limiting also his ability to pursue certain claims against the Company.

5.    Severability Clause. In the event any provision or part of this Agreement is found to be invalid or unenforceable, only that particular provision or part so found, and not the entire Agreement, shall be inoperative.

6.    Nonadmission. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed or construed as an admission of wrongdoing or liability on the part of the Company.

7.    GOVERNING LAW AND FORUM. The Executive acknowledges that this Agreement has been executed, in whole or in part, in New York. Accordingly, the Executive agrees that this Agreement and all matters or issues arising out of or relating to the Executive’s employment with the Company shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts entered into and performed entirely therein. Any action to enforce this Agreement shall be brought solely in the state or federal courts located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan.

8.    Notices. Notices under this Agreement must be given in writing, by personal delivery, regular mail or receipted email, at the parties’ respective addresses shown on this Agreement (or any other address designated in writing by either party), with a copy, in the case of the Company, to the attention of Viacom Inc.’s General Counsel. Any notice given by regular mail shall be deemed to have been given three (3) days following such mailing.

THE EXECUTIVE ACKNOWLEDGES THAT HE HAS READ THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT HE FULLY KNOWS, UNDERSTANDS AND APPRECIATES ITS CONTENTS, AND THAT HE HEREBY EXECUTES THE SAME AND MAKES THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RELEASE AND AGREEMENTS PROVIDED FOR HEREIN VOLUNTARILY AND OF HIS OWN FREE WILL.

A-3

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the date first set forth above.
