                      DESCRIPTION OF THE TRANSACTION

        This application seeks FCC consent to the pro forma transfer of control of the
licensee (“Licensee”) of the earth station authorizations that are the subject of this
application. Licensee is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Viacom Inc. (“Viacom”). Viacom
is controlled by a single majority voting shareholder, NAIRI, Inc. (“NAIRI”), which
owns approximately 79% of the voting stock of Viacom. NAIRI is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of National Amusements, Inc. (“NAI”), which in turn is controlled by Sumner
M. Redstone through the Sumner M. Redstone National Amusements Trust u/d/t dated
6/28/02, which owns approximately 80% of the voting interest of NAI.

        In connection with an internal reorganization of NAI and certain of its
subsidiaries, NAIRI intends to transfer all of the stock of Viacom held by it to its parent,
NAI. NAI, in turn, intends to transfer a portion of that stock to a newly created wholly-
owned subsidiary, NAI Entertainment Holdings LLC (“NAI Entertainment”). No other
changes in interest are proposed herein. Specifically, upon the consummation of the
proposed transaction, Licensee will remain a wholly-owned subsidiary of Viacom, and
NAI will continue to control, directly or together with its wholly-owned subsidiary NAI
Entertainment, a majority of the voting stock of Viacom. Organizational charts depicting
the current and proposed ownership structure of Licensee are attached at Exhibit E.
