Viacom Announces Receipt of Letter from National Amusements

Original Viacom Inc. Press Release via Business Wire:

Viacom Announces Receipt of Letter from National Amusements

September 29, 2016 08:46 AM Eastern Daylight Time


NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Viacom Inc. (NASDAQ:VIAB, VIA) today announced that its board of directors has received a letter from National Amusements requesting that it explore a potential combination of Viacom and CBS. The Company noted that National Amusements communicated that it is not willing to accept or support any acquisition of Viacom by a third party or any transaction that would result in National Amusements surrendering its controlling position in Viacom. National Amusements, directly and through subsidiaries, owns approximately 80% of the voting shares of both Viacom and CBS and approximately 10% of Viacom’s total common stock outstanding.

The Company expects that the Viacom board of directors will form a special committee of independent directors to carefully consider the request from National Amusements and any proposed transaction.

The full text of the letter received from National Amusements is set forth below:

September 29, 2016

Board of Directors
CBS Corporation
c/o Leslie Moonves (Chairman, President and CEO)
51 W. 52nd Street
New York, New York 10019

Board of Directors
Viacom Inc.
c/o Thomas May (Chairman)
I 515 Broadway
New York, New York 10036

Members of the Boards:

We believe that a combination of CBS and Viacom might offer substantial synergies that would allow the combined company to respond even more aggressively and effectively to the challenges of the changing entertainment and media landscape.

As a result, we would like both companies’ boards to consider a potential combination of the companies. Our tentative view is that the optimal structure would be an all-stock transaction in which the stockholders of each company would receive shares in the combined company of the same class as they currently hold.

We therefore request the board of each company take the appropriate steps to consider the proposed transaction. We believe that any transaction should be the result of full and fair deliberation and negotiation, and that any transaction would proceed only if it is approved by each board. None of Sumner M. Redstone, Shari E. Redstone or David R. Andelman will vote as directors on the consideration of this matter by either company’s board, and none will participate in any of the related deliberations.

To avoid any doubt, National Amusements is not willing to accept or support (i) any acquisition by a third party of either company or (ii) any transaction that would result in National Amusements surrendering its controlling position in either company or not controlling the combined company. We believe moving forward expeditiously, but with due care, is important and we are prepared to be of assistance to the two companies as they explore this possibility.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

NATIONAL AMUSEMENTS, INC.

By: /s/ Sumner M. Redstone
Chief Executive Officer

President

Harvey Beaks | "Sum of Many Parts" Song from Season Two Episode "Little Little Bark"

"Sum of Many Parts" music & lyrics by Ego Plum. Song from "Little Little Bark," the 13th episode of Season 2 of Harvey Beaks:



From Ego Plum's official blog:

“Sum of Many Parts” | The Music of Harvey Beaks

Little Little Bark is one of my favorite episodes from the second season of Harvey Beaks. I rate up there with The Finger, Day of No To-Do, and Alone. I wrote and sang this little acoustic song for the opening which in retrospect seems to be about mental illness and obsession. Half the lyrics are in reverse.

Musically speaking, “Sum of Many Parts” is an homage to the Andy Partridge (From the band XTC) and has subtle similarities to the mood of “Another Satellite” from 1986’s Skylarking and the lyrical phrasing of “Statue of Liberty” from 1978’s White Music. Andy Partridge is one of our greatest living songwriters and someone who has had a tremendous influence on my music. He is graceful wordsmith and the perfect architect of chords & melodic phrases that can only come from a diet of proper musical influences: He shares a musical bloodline with Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Brian Wilson, Ray/Dave Davies, Jeff Lynne and others. His musical progeny include people like Damon Albarn (Blur), Thomas Walsh (Pugwash) and many others. I consider myself a disciple of his and cannot help but model myself in his musical image, time and time again.

One day I’ll make a post (with examples) of all my proper influences for the music I write on Harvey Beaks. Many are rather specific! -Ego

Watch more brand-new episodes of Harvey Beaks weekdays at 5:30 p.m. (ET/PT) this September, only on Nickelodeon USA!
