ITEM 1. BUSINESS

                                    GENERAL

    Home Shopping Network, Inc. ("Holdco" or the "Company"), through its
subsidiary, USANi LLC, is a media and electronic commerce company focused on the
new convergence of entertainment, information and direct selling. USANi LLC's
principal operating assets include USA Network, Sci Fi Channel, Studios USA,
Home Shopping Network, USA Electronic Commerce Solutions and Styleclick, Inc.

    Holdco's business is organized as follows:

    - CABLE AND STUDIOS. USA Cable operates cable networks, including USA
      Network, Sci Fi Channel, and two emerging networks, Trio and NewsWorld
      International. Studios USA produces and distributes television
      programming.

    - ELECTRONIC RETAILING, consisting primarily of HSN and America's Store, HSN
      International and HSN Interactive, including HSN.com.

    - USA ELECTRONIC COMMERCE SOLUTIONS, which primarily represents the
      Company's electronic commerce solutions business.

    - STYLECLICK, a facilitator of e-commerce websites and Internet enabled
      applications which includes the Company's online retailing networks.

CORPORATE HISTORY

    Holdco, a Delaware corporation, is a subsidiary of USA Networks, Inc.
("USAi"). USAi's common stock is quoted on the Nasdaq National Market under the
symbol "USAI".

    UNIVERSAL TRANSACTION

    On February 12, 1998, USAi completed the Universal transaction, in which
USAi acquired USA Networks, a New York partnership (which consisted of USA
Network and Sci Fi Channel cable television networks), and the domestic
television production and distribution business ("Studios USA") of Universal
Studios, Inc. ("Universal") from Universal. USAi paid Universal approximately
$1.6 billion in cash ($300 million of which was deferred with interest) and an
effective 45.8% interest in USAi through shares of USAi common stock, USAi
Class B common stock and shares of USANi LLC. The USANi LLC shares are
exchangeable for shares of USAi's common stock and Class B common stock on a
one-for-one basis. Universal is controlled by Vivendi Universal, S.A., a French
corporation ("Vivendi"), as a result of the combination of Vivendi S.A., The
Seagram Company Ltd. ("Seagram") and Canal Plus completed in December 2000.

    Due to Federal Communication Commission ("FCC") restrictions on foreign
ownership of entities such as USAi that control domestic television broadcast
licenses, Universal, which is controlled by Vivendi, is limited in the number of
shares of USAi's stock that it may own. USAi formed USANi LLC primarily to hold
USAi's non-broadcast businesses in order to comply with such FCC restrictions
and for other tax and regulatory reasons. Universal's interest in USANi LLC is
not subject to the FCC foreign ownership limitations. USAi maintains control and
management of USANi LLC, and the businesses held by USANi LLC are managed by
USAi in substantially the same manner as they would be if USAi held them
directly through wholly owned subsidiaries. As long as Mr. Diller, USAi's
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, remains in such positions and does not
become disabled, these arrangements will remain in place. At such time as
Mr. Diller no longer occupies such positions, or if Mr. Diller becomes disabled,
Universal may have the right to designate a person to be the manager of USANi
LLC and the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of USAi. If Universal does not
have such

                                       3
<PAGE>
right, Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty") may be entitled to designate such
persons. In all other cases, USAi is entitled to designate the manager of USANi
LLC.

    STYLECLICK TRANSACTION

    On July 27, 2000, USAi and Styleclick.com Inc., an enabler of e-commerce for
manufacturers and retailers, completed the merger of USAi's Internet Shopping
Network ("ISN") and Styleclick.com Inc. The new company, which is named
Styleclick, Inc. ("Styleclick"), owns and operates the combined properties of
Styleclick.com Inc. and ISN. Styleclick's class A common shares are traded on
Nasdaq under the symbol "IBUY." As of December 31, 2000, USAi beneficially owned
100% of the outstanding Styleclick Class B common stock, representing 74.29% of
the total common stock of Styleclick and 96.65% of the total voting power of
Styleclick outstanding common stock.

CORPORATE STRUCTURE AND CONTROLLING SHAREHOLDERS

    HOLDCO.  As of January 31, 2001, Liberty owned a 19.9% equity interest (9.2%
of the voting power) in Holdco and USAi owned the remaining equity and voting
interests. Holdco's only asset is its 36.2% interest in USANi LLC. Holdco has a
dual-class common stock structure similar to USAi's. Under an exchange agreement
dated as of December 20, 1996, between USAi and a subsidiary of Liberty, Liberty
or its permitted transferee will exchange its Holdco common stock and its Holdco
Class B common stock for shares of USAi's common stock and Class B common stock,
respectively, at the applicable conversion ratio. This exchange will only occur
at such time or from time to time as Liberty or its permitted transferee is
allowed under applicable FCC regulations to hold additional shares of USAi's
stock. Liberty, however, is obligated to effect an exchange only after all of
its USANi LLC shares have been exchanged for shares of USAi's common stock. Upon
completion of the exchange of Liberty's Holdco shares, Holdco will become a
wholly owned subsidiary of USAi.

    USANI LLC.  As of January 31 2001, USAi owned 7.3% and indirectly through
Holdco 36.2% of the outstanding USANi LLC shares, Universal owned 48.6% of the
outstanding USANi LLC shares and Liberty owned 7.9% of the outstanding USANi LLC
shares.

    Under an exchange agreement, dated February 12, 1998, among USAi, Universal
and Liberty, Universal may exchange its USANi LLC shares for shares of USAi's
common stock and Class B common stock and Liberty may exchange its USANi LLC
shares for USAi's common stock. USAi has the right, subject to conditions, to
require Liberty to exchange such shares when, under applicable law, it is
legally permitted to do so. USAi may only require Universal to exchange its
USANi LLC shares upon a sale of USAi as provided in the exchange agreement.

DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESSES

CABLE AND STUDIOS

    USA CABLE

    USA Cable operates four domestic advertiser-supported 24-hour cable
television networks-USA Network, Sci Fi Channel, Trio and NewsWorld
International ("NWI"). Since its inception in 1977, USA Network has grown into
one of the nation's most widely distributed and viewed satellite-delivered
television networks. According to Nielsen Media Research, as of December 2000,
USA Network was available in approximately 79.9 million U.S. households (78% of
the total U.S. households with televisions). For the 2000 year, USA Network
earned the highest primetime rating of any domestic basic cable network, with an
average rating of 2.1 in primetime for the 12-month period (Source: Nielsen
Media Research). USA Network is a general entertainment network featuring
original series and movies, theatrical movies, off-network television series and
major sporting events, designed to appeal to the available audiences during
particular viewing hours. In general, USA Network's programming is targeted at
viewers between the ages of 25 to 54.

    Sci Fi Channel was launched in 1992. It has been one of the fastest-growing
satellite-delivered networks since its inception. According to Nielsen Media
Research, as of December 2000, Sci Fi Channel was available in 66.7 million U.S.
households (65% of the total U.S. households with televisions). Sci Fi Channel
features science fiction, horror, fantasy and science-fact oriented programming.
In general, Sci Fi Channel's programming is designed to appeal to viewers
between the ages of 25 to 54. According to Nielsen Media Research, Sci Fi
Channel averaged a primetime 0.9 rating for calendar year 2000, and a 1.1 rating
for December 2000, both new records for the network.

    In addition to the services described above, Sci Fi Channel has its own
website, SCIFI.COM, which was launched in 1995. SCIFI.COM is an online science
fiction resource, featuring original entertainment, daily news, feature stories,
games and special events that focus on science fiction, science fact, fantasy,
horror, the paranormal and the unknown.

    Trio and NWI were acquired by USA Cable from the Canadian Broadcasting
Corporation ("CBC") and Power Broadcasting Inc. in May 2000. Trio is a general
entertainment network that features programming primarily from Canada, Great
Britain and Australia. NWI is a 24-hour international news channel that presents
hourly newscasts, and other long-form contemporary magazine shows. As of
December 31, 2000, Trio and NWI were each available in less than 10 million U.S.
households.

    USA Cable's four networks derive virtually all of their revenues from two
sources. The first is the per-subscriber fees paid by the cable operators and
other distributors. The second is from the sale of advertising time within the
programming carried on each of the networks.

    In March 2001, USA Cable announced that it will establish a new digital
channel called Crime, to launch Fall 2001, co-founded by Cops creator John
Langely. The Crime channel will feature reality programming, police dramas and
hit crime films. In addition, the Company acquired Crime.com, a popular Internet
destination for information, public safety news and entertainment, all relating
to crime, to serve as the interactive companion of the new channel.

                                       5

    PROGRAMMING AND TRANSMISSION.  Presently, USA Network's program line-up
features original series, produced exclusively for USA Network, including LA
FEMME NIKITA, COVER ME, and THE HUNTRESS. USA Network also exhibits
approximately 18 movies produced exclusively for it each year. USA Network's
programming includes off-network series such as JAG, NASH BRIDGES, and WALKER,
TEXAS RANGER and major theatrically-released feature films. USA Network is home
to the ECO-CHALLENGE, exclusive midweek coverage of the U.S. OPEN TENNIS
CHAMPIONSHIPS and early round coverage of THE MASTERS, the RYDER CUP and major
PGA Tour golf events.

    USA Network typically enters into long-term agreements for its major
off-network series programming. Its original series commitments usually start
with less than a full year's commitment (generally, a pilot episode), but
contain options for further production over several years. In addition, USA
Network has some original programming produced for it (through
financing/distribution arrangements entered into by its wholly owned subsidiary,
USA Cable Entertainment LLC), so that it is better able to control all of the
rights to such programming. These original productions will include specials,
series, and made-for-television movies. USA Network acquires theatrical films in
both their "network" windows and "pre-syndication" windows. Under these
arrangements, the acquisition of such rights is often concluded many years
before the actual exhibition of the films begins on the network. USA Network's
original films start production less than a year prior to their initial
exhibition. USA Network typically obtains the right to exhibit both its acquired
theatrical films and original films numerous times over multiple year periods.

    Sci Fi Channel's program lineup includes original programs produced
specifically for it, such as FARSCAPE, FIRST WAVE, INVISIBLE MAN, and CROSSING
OVER WITH JOHN EDWARD, as well as science fiction movies and classic science
fiction series, such as the original STAR TREK, THE TWILIGHT ZONE, and QUANTUM
LEAP. Sci Fi Channel's programming arrangements for off-network series, original
series, theatrical movies and original movies are similar to those entered into
by USA Network.

    Trio's program lineup consists of drama series, documentary series, and
films generally licensed from distributors in Canada, Australia and Great
Britain. Programs include the British series CRACKER, Canada's TRADERS, and the
Australian medical drama ADRENALIN JUNKIES.

    NWI's line-up consists of updated newscasts at the top of each hour entitled
INTERNATIONAL NEWSFIRST which covers the top global news as well as
international news items on business, sports, weather and entertainment.
Throughout the day NWI also features daily world newscasts presently licensed
from broadcasters in Mexico, Russia, China, Germany, Japan and Canada, which are
presented both in the original language and with an English translation. Under a
long-term supply agreement, NWI's programming is produced by CBC, in Canada.

    USA Cable's four networks distribute their programming service on a 24-hour
per day, seven day per week basis. All four networks are distributed in all 50
states and Puerto Rico via satellite for distribution by cable television
systems and direct broadcast satellite systems and for satellite antenna owners
by means of satellite transponders owned or leased by USA Cable. Any cable
television system or individual satellite dish owner in the United States and
its territories and possessions equipped with standard satellite receiving
facilities is capable of receiving USA Cable's services.

    USA Cable has the full-time use of four transponders on two domestic
communications satellites. USA Cable has protection in the event of the failure
of its transponders. When the carrier provides services to a customer on a
"protected" basis, replacement transponders (I.E., spare or unassigned
transponders) on the satellite may be used in the event the "protected"
transponder fails. Should there be no replacement transponders available, the
"protected" customer will displace a "preemptible" transponder customer on the
same satellite. The carrier also maintains a protection satellite and should a
satellite fail completely, all "protected" transponders would be moved to the
protection satellite which is available on a "first fail, first served" basis.

    A transponder failure that would necessitate a move to another transponder
on the same satellite would not result in any significant interruption of
service to those that receive USA Cable's programs.

                                       6
<PAGE>
However, a failure that would necessitate a move to another satellite
temporarily may affect the number of cable systems that receive USA Cable
programs as well as other programming carried on the failed satellite, because
of the need to install equipment or to reorient earth stations. The projected
ends of life of the two satellites utilized by USA Cable are April 2005 and
June 2006, respectively.

    USA Cable's control of two different transponders on each of two different
satellites would enable it to continue transmission of USA Network and Sci Fi
Channel should either one of the satellites fail. USA Cable does not have this
capability for Trio and NWI. Although USA Cable believes it is taking reasonable
measures to ensure its continued satellite transmission capability, there can be
no assurance that termination or interruption of satellite transmission will not
occur. Such a termination or interruption of service by one or both of these
satellites could have a material adverse effect on the operations and financial
condition of USANi LLC. The availability of replacement satellites and
transponders beyond current leases is dependent on a number of factors over
which USA Cable has no control, including competition among prospective users
for available transponders and the availability of satellite launching
facilities for replacement satellites.

    Each of the networks enters into agreements with cable operators and other
distributors which agree to carry the programming service, generally as part of
a package with other advertiser-supported programming services. These agreements
are multi-year arrangements, and obligate the distributor to pay USA Cable a fee
for each subscriber to the particular programming service. From time to time, a
USA Cable network will be distributed on one or more cable systems without a
distribution agreement in effect while the parties negotiate a new agreement, a
process that may be protracted. While the cessation of carriage by a major cable
operator would have a negative impact on the financial results of USA Cable, the
Company has successfully managed the distribution agreement process in the past,
and believes it will continue to do so.

    STUDIOS USA

    Studios USA produces and distributes television programs intended for
initial exhibition on television and home video in both domestic and
international markets. These productions include original programming for
network television and first-run syndication through local television stations.
Studios USA also is the exclusive domestic distributor of the Universal
television library. In addition to the activities of Studios USA, other USAi
business units are also engaged in financing and distributing television
programs for exhibition on USA Network and Sci Fi Channel.

    Studios USA and its predecessor companies have produced programming for
network television since the early 1950s and Studios USA remains a major
supplier of network and first-run syndication programming today, including
LAW & ORDER, LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT, SALLY (hosted by Sally Jesse
Raphael), THE JERRY SPRINGER SHOW and MAURY (hosted by Maury Povich). For the
2000/01 broadcast season, Studios USA launched two new series for CBS, WELCOME
TO NEW YORK and THE DISTRICT, and two new series for NBC entitled DEADLINE and
FIRST YEARS. Production of IN SEARCH OF, a new series for the Fox Broadcasting
Company ("FBC"), has commenced. For the upcoming 2001/02 broadcast season,
Studios USA has received orders from NBC for two new series from LAW & ORDER
creator, Dick Wolf, entitled LAW & ORDER: CRIMINAL INTENT and TRIAL & ERROR.
Studios USA has also launched a new syndicated series, ARREST & TRIAL. Studios
USA generally retains foreign and off-network distribution rights for
programming originally produced for television networks or first-run
syndication.

    Television production generally includes four steps: development,
pre-production, principal photography and post-production. The
production/distribution cycle represents the period of time from development of
the property through distribution and varies depending upon such factors as type
of product and primary form of exhibition. Under the facilities lease agreement,
Studios USA's Southern California production activities are centered on the
Universal production lot. Some television programs and films are produced, in
whole or in part, at other locations both inside and outside the United States.

                                       7
<PAGE>
    Development of television programs and films begins with ideas and concepts
of producers and writers, which form the basis of a television series or film.
Producers and writers are frequently signed to term agreements generally
providing Studios USA with exclusive use of their services for a term ranging
from one to five years in the case of producers and one to two years in the case
of writers. Term agreements are signed with such talent to develop network
comedy and drama and first-run syndication programming. Term agreements are also
signed with actors, binding them to Studios USA for a period of time during
which Studios USA attempts to attach them to a series under development. These
term agreements represent a significant investment for Studios USA.

    In the case of network development, the ideas and concepts developed by
producers and writers are presented to broadcast networks to receive their
approval and financial participation in the development of a "pilot" that could
possibly become a commitment from the network to license a minimum number of
episodes based on the pilot. In general, the production cycle for network
programming begins with the presentation of pilot concepts to network
broadcasters in the fall of each year. Alternatively, Studios USA may elect to
self-finance a project, and then market the completed script or produced pilot
to the various networks. In any case, each May, networks release their fall
schedules, committing to the series production of pilots, renewing existing
programs and canceling others. Networks typically commit to seven to thirteen
episodes for such new series with options to acquire additional episodes for a
negotiated license fee and twenty-two episodes for a renewed series. Production
on these series begins in June and continues through March, depending upon the
network commitment. The network broadcast season runs from September through
May. Studios USA incurs production costs throughout the production cycle up
through completion of an episode while networks remit a portion of the license
fees to Studios USA upon the beginning of episodic production and a portion upon
delivery of episodes.

    Several of Studios USA's subsidiary companies are individually and
separately engaged in the development and/or production of television programs.
Certain of these subsidiaries are also signatories to various collective
bargaining agreements within the entertainment industry. The most significant of
these are the agreements with the Writers Guild of America ("WGA"), the
Directors Guild of America ("DGA") and the Screen Actors Guild ("SAG") which
agreements typically have a term of several years and then require
re-negotiation. The current WGA agreement expires on May 1, 2001 and the SAG
agreement expires on June 30, 2001. On January 22, 2001, the WGA began
negotiations with the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers
(AMPTP), which represents studios, major production companies and networks.
Although USAi's subsidiaries, including subsidiaries of Studios USA, have taken
appropriate measures to prepare for a strike by the WGA and/or SAG and minimize
any impact, a prolonged work stoppage would reduce the number of programs that
could be produced.

    TELEVISION PRODUCTION CUSTOMERS.  Studios USA produces television programs
for the U.S. broadcast networks for prime time television exhibition. Certain
television programs are initially licensed for network television exhibition in
the U.S. and are simultaneously syndicated outside the U.S. Historically,
Studios USA customers for network television product have been concentrated with
the three oldest major U.S. television networks--ABC, CBS and NBC. In recent
years, FBC, UPN and the WB Network have created new networks, decreasing to some
extent Studios USA's dependence on ABC, CBS and NBC and expanding the outlets
for its network product. Revenue from licensing agreements is recognized in the
period that the films are first available for telecast. Programming consists of
various weekly series, including the returning productions LAW & ORDER, LAW &
ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT and five new series WELCOME TO NEW YORK and THE
DISTRICT on CBS, DEADLINE and FIRST YEARS on NBC, and IN SEARCH OF on FBC. In
addition, Studios USA has already received orders from NBC for two new series
from LAW & ORDER creator, Dick Wolf, entitled LAW & ORDER: CRIMINAL INTENT and
TRIAL & ERROR. In the initial telecast season, the network license provides for
the production of a minimum number of episodes, with the network having the
option to order additional episodes for both the current and future television
seasons. The success of any one series may be influenced by the time period in
which the network airs the series, the

                                       8
<PAGE>
strength of the programs against which it competes, promotion of the series by
the network and the overall commitment of the network to the series.

    Generally, network licenses give the networks the exclusive right to
telecast new episodes of a given series for a period of time, generally four to
five years and sometimes with further options thereafter. Recently, series
produced by Studios USA have been distributed on a "dual platform" basis. In the
case of LAW & ORDER: SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT, for example, the USA Network shares
the initial exhibition "window" with NBC. The same "dual platform" distribution
will be used for LAW & ORDER: CRIMINAL INTENT, starting in the fall of 2001.
Likewise, in the case of IN SEARCH OF, the USA Network will share the initial
exhibition window with FBC.

    Studios USA also produces television film product that is initially
syndicated directly to independent television stations for airing throughout the
broadcast day and to network affiliated stations for non-primetime airing.
First-run syndication programming for 2000/01 includes three returning talk
shows, SALLY, THE JERRY SPRINGER SHOW, and MAURY. In addition, in the fall of
2000, Studios USA launched a half-hour reality strip from LAW & ORDER creator
Dick Wolf entitled ARREST & TRIAL.

    Studios USA has also been distributing programs on a "dual platform" basis
in cable and in syndication. For example, INVISIBLE MAN currently is distributed
on a dual platform basis on the Sci Fi Channel and in first-run syndication, and
commencing with the 2001-02 broadcast season, Sci Fi's CROSSING OVER WITH JOHN
EDWARD also will be dual platformed on Sci Fi Channel and in first-run
syndication. In addition, Studios USA has licensed off-syndication episodes of
syndicated programs to cable channels, including HERCULES: THE LEGENDARY
JOURNEYS to USA Network and XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS to Oxygen.

    Studios USA licenses television film product to independent stations and
directly to network affiliated stations in return for either a cash license fee,
barter or part-barter and part-cash. Barter syndication is the process whereby
Studios USA obtains commitments from television stations to broadcast a program
in certain agreed upon time periods. Studios USA retains advertising time in the
program in lieu of receiving a cash license fee, and sells such retained
advertising time for its own account to national advertisers at rates based on
the projected number of viewers. By placing the program with television stations
throughout the United States, an "ad hoc" network of stations is created to
carry the program. The creation of this ad hoc network of stations, typically
representing a penetration of at least 80% of total U.S. television households,
enables Studios USA to sell the commercial advertising time through advertising
agencies for sponsors desiring national coverage. The rates charged for this
advertising time are typically lower than rates charged by U.S. broadcast
networks for similar demographics since the networks coverage of the markets is
generally greater. In order to create this ad hoc network of stations and reach
80% of total U.S. television households, Studios USA must syndicate its
programming with stations that are owned and operated by the major broadcast
networks and station groups, which are essentially entities which own many
stations in the major broadcast markets across the United States. Without
commitments from broadcast network stations and station groups, the necessary
market penetration may not be achieved which may adversely affect the chances of
success in the first-run syndication market.

    Generally, television films produced for broadcast networks or barter
syndication (or those financed by USA Cable Entertainment LLC for cable
exhibition) provide license fees and/or advertising revenues that cover only a
portion of the anticipated production costs. The recoverability of the balance
of the production costs and the realization of profits, if any, is dependent
upon the success of other exploitation including international syndication
licenses, subsequent basic cable and domestic syndication licenses, releases in
the home video market, merchandising and other uses. Pursuant to an agreement
with Universal, Studios USA has the right to include eligible product in
Universal's international free television output and volume agreements with
television broadcasters in major international territories. These agreements
represent a substantial revenue source for Studios USA.

                                       9
<PAGE>
    DISTRIBUTION.  In general, during the initial production years of a
primetime series for the broadcast networks (I.E., seasons one to four),
domestic network and international revenues fall short of production costs. As a
result, the series will likely remain in a deficit position until sold in the
domestic syndication market. The series will be available for airing in the
off-network syndication market after a network's exclusivity period ends,
typically the September following the completion of the third or fourth network
season (or the subsequent season if the series were a mid-season order). For a
successful series, the syndication sales process generally begins during the
second or third network season. The price that a series will command in
syndication is a function of supply and demand. Studios USA syndicated series
are sold for cash and/or bartered services (I.E., advertising time), typically
for a period of at least five years. Barter transactions have played an
increasingly important role in the syndication process as they can represent a
majority of the distributor's syndication revenue.

    Studios USA distributes its current programming domestically. In addition,
USAi and Universal have agreed that Studios USA will have the exclusive right
through February 2013 to distribute domestically Universal's large television
library, with programming dating back to the 1950s and including such series as
ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS; THE VIRGINIAN; MARCUS WELBY, M.D.; DRAGNET; COLUMBO;
KOJAK; THE ROCKFORD FILES; MURDER SHE WROTE; MAGNUM P.I.; MIAMI VICE; COACH; and
NORTHERN EXPOSURE. During this period, Studios USA also has the exclusive right,
with limited exceptions, to distribute domestically television programming newly
produced by Universal.

    In addition, USAi and Universal have agreed that Universal will have the
exclusive right, again with limited exceptions, to distribute all Studios USA
programming internationally. In that regard, Universal has entered into several
output and volume agreements with international television broadcasters that
include programming produced by Studios USA, including agreements in Germany,
France, Spain, Italy and the United Kingdom. These agreements generally provide
that the licensor in a given territory shall have exclusive first-run free
television rights to all Universal or Studios USA product, or alternatively,
provide mechanisms by which the licensor generally commits to license a minimum
number per year of first-run series and first-run television movies during a
specified term in the territory. Pursuant to the terms of the international
distribution agreement between USAi and Universal, USAi's eligible programming
will have the first right to participate in Universal's international output and
volume agreements with international television broadcasters.

ELECTRONIC RETAILING

HOME SHOPPING NETWORK

    Home Shopping Network sells a variety of consumer goods and services by
means of live, customer-interactive electronic retail sales programs which are
transmitted via satellite to cable television systems, affiliated broadcast
television stations and satellite dish receivers. Home Shopping Network operates
three retail sales programs in the United States, each 24 hours a day, seven
days a week: HSN and America's Store, in English; and HSE (Home Shopping en
Espanol), in Spanish.

    Home Shopping Network's retail sales and programming are intended to promote
sales and customer loyalty through a combination of product quality, price and
value, coupled with product information and entertainment. HSN and America's
Store programs are carried by cable television systems and broadcast television
stations throughout the country. HSE is carried primarily in markets with
significant Spanish speaking populations. All three programs are divided into
segments which are televised with a host who presents the merchandise, sometimes
with the assistance of a guest representing the product vendor, and conveys
information relating to the product. Viewers purchase products by calling a
toll-free telephone number. According to Nielsen Media Research, as of
December 31, 2000, HSN was available in approximately 76.7 million unduplicated
households, including approximately 65.6 million cable households.

</TABLE>

------------------------

(1) Households capable of receiving both broadcast and cable transmissions are
    included under cable and therefore are excluded from broadcast to present
    unduplicated household reach.

(2) Cable households included 11.6 million and 9.1 million direct broadcast
    satellite households at December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and
    therefore are excluded from other.

(3) See "Broadcast Television Distribution" below for a discussion of the
    disaffiliation of certain stations from HSN over the next year.

    According to industry sources, as of December 31, 2000, there were
102.2 million homes in the United States with a television set, 69.5 million
basic cable television subscribers and 1.3 million homes with satellite dish
receivers, excluding direct broadcast satellite.

    As of December 31, 2000, America's Store reached approximately 7.1 million
cable television households, of which 1.2 million were on a part time basis. Of
the total cable television households receiving America's Store, 6.8 million
also receive HSN.

    As of December 31, 2000, HSE reached approximately 2.5 million Hispanic
broadcast television households. During 2000, HSE also reached approximately
3 million cable television households on a full or part time basis pursuant to a
carriage arrangement on Univision's cable affiliate, Galavision, which
arrangement expired on December 31, 2000. For more information, see
"-International Home Shopping Network Ventures-SPANISH LANGUAGE NETWORKS."

    CUSTOMER SERVICE AND RETURN POLICY

    Home Shopping Network believes that satisfied customers will be loyal and
will purchase merchandise on a regular basis. Accordingly, Home Shopping Network
has customer service personnel and computerized voice response units available
to handle calls relating to customer inquiries 24 hours a day, seven days a
week. Generally, any item purchased from Home Shopping Network may be returned
within 30 days for a full refund of the purchase price, including the original
shipping and handling charges.

    DISTRIBUTION, DATA PROCESSING AND TELECOMMUNICATIONS

    Home Shopping Network's fulfillment subsidiaries store, service and ship
merchandise from warehouses located in Salem, Virginia and Waterloo, Iowa. Home
Shopping Network expects to open an additional fulfillment facility in Fontana,
California in 2001. Generally, merchandise is delivered to customers within
seven to ten business days of the receipt by Home Shopping Network of the
customer's payment for an order.

    Home Shopping Network currently operates multiple main frame and distributed
computing platforms and has extensive computer systems which track purchase
orders, inventory, sales, payments, credit authorization, and delivery of
merchandise to customers. During 2000, Home Shopping Network continued to make
significant progress upgrading many of its computer systems. These upgrades will
continue in 2001 through enhancements to existing systems and roll out of
additional key operational systems.

                                       11
<PAGE>
    Home Shopping Network has digital telephone and switching systems and
utilizes a voice response unit, which allows callers to place their orders by
means of touch-tone input or to be transferred to an operator.

    PRODUCT PURCHASING AND LIQUIDATION

    Home Shopping Network purchases merchandise made to its specifications,
merchandise from manufacturers' lines, merchandise offered under certain
exclusive rights and overstock inventories of wholesalers. The mix of products
and source of such merchandise depends upon a variety of factors including price
and availability. Home Shopping Network generally does not have long-term
commitments with its vendors, and there are various sources of supply available
for each category of merchandise sold.

    Home Shopping Network's product offerings include: hardgoods, which include
consumer electronics, collectibles, housewares, consumables, entertainment,
sports and fitness; jewelry; fashion, which includes fashion and accessories;
and cosmetics, which consists primarily of cosmetics, skin care and nutritional
supplements. For 2000 hardgoods, jewelry, fashion and cosmetics accounted for
approximately 50.4%, 26.0%, 13.4% and 10.2%, respectively, of Home Shopping
Network's net sales.

    Home Shopping Network liquidates excess inventory through its four outlet
stores located in the Tampa Bay and Orlando areas and one outlet store in the
Chicago area. Damaged merchandise is liquidated by Home Shopping Network through
traditional channels.

    TRANSMISSION AND PROGRAMMING

    Home Shopping Network produces its programming in its studios located in St.
Petersburg, Florida. HSN, America's Store and HSE programs are distributed to
cable television systems, broadcast television stations, direct broadcast
satellite, and/or satellite antenna owners by means of Home Shopping Network's
satellite uplink facilities to satellite transponders leased by Home Shopping
Network. Any cable television system, broadcast television station or individual
satellite dish owner in the United States and the Caribbean Islands equipped
with standard satellite receiving facilities and the appropriate equipment is
capable of receiving HSN, America's Store and HSE.

    Home Shopping Network has lease agreements securing full-time use of two
transponders on two domestic communications satellites. Each of the transponder
lease agreements grants Home Shopping Network "protected" rights. When the
carrier provides services to a customer on a "protected" basis, replacement
transponders (I.E., spare or unassigned transponders) on the satellite may be
used in the event the "protected" transponder fails. Should there be no
replacement transponders available, the "protected" customer will displace a
"preemptible" transponder customer on the same satellite. The carrier also
maintains a protection satellite and should a satellite fail completely, all
"protected" transponders would be moved to the protection satellite which is
available on a "first fail, first served" basis.

    During 2000, Home Shopping Network also had a lease agreement for a third
transponder on a domestic communications satellite which lease had been
subleased by Home Shopping Network in 1996 to a third party cable programming
service. The monthly sublease rental was in excess of the monthly lease payment.
In November 2000, the lease was assigned and assumed by the third party cable
programming service. The foregoing assignment and assumption was made with the
written consent of the lessor who released Home Shopping Network from any and
all liabilities arising under the lease from and after the assignment date.

    A transponder failure that would necessitate a move to another transponder
on the same satellite would not result in any significant interruption of
service to the cable systems and/or television stations which receive HSN,
America's Store or HSE. However, a failure that would necessitate a move to

                                       12
<PAGE>
another satellite may temporarily affect the number of cable systems and/or
television stations which receive HSN, America's Store or HSE, as well as all
other programming carried on the failed satellite, because of the need to
install equipment or to reorient earth stations.

    The terms of two of the satellite transponder leases utilized by Home
Shopping Network are for the life of the satellites, which are projected through
2004 for the satellite presently carrying HSN and through 2005 for the satellite
carrying America's Store and HSE.

    Home Shopping Network's access to two transponders pursuant to long-term
agreements would enable it to continue transmission of Home Shopping Network
programming should either one of the satellites fail. Although Home Shopping
Network believes it is taking every reasonable measure to ensure its continued
satellite transmission capability, there can be no assurance that termination or
interruption of satellite transmissions will not occur. Such a termination or
interruption of service by one or both of these satellites could have a material
adverse effect on the operations and financial condition of USAi.

    The availability of replacement satellites and transponder time beyond
current leases is dependent on a number of factors over which Home Shopping
Network has no control, including competition among prospective users for
available transponders and the availability of satellite launching facilities
for replacement satellites.

    The FCC grants licenses to construct and operate satellite uplink facilities
which transmit signals to satellites. These licenses are generally issued
without a hearing if suitable frequencies are available. Home Shopping Network
has been granted one license for operation of C-band satellite transmission
facilities and one license for operation of KU-band satellite transmission
facilities on a permanent basis in Clearwater and St. Petersburg, Florida.

    CABLE TELEVISION DISTRIBUTION

    Home Shopping Network has entered into affiliation agreements with cable
system operators to carry HSN, America's Store, HSE, and/or a combination of the
services. These agreements are multi-year arrangements, and obligate the cable
operator to assist with the promotional efforts of Home Shopping Network by
carrying commercials promoting HSN, America's Store and HSE and by distributing
Home Shopping Network's marketing materials to the cable operator's subscribers.
All cable operators receive significant compensation for carriage, including a
commission based on a percentage of the net merchandise sales within the cable
operator's franchise area and, generally, additional compensation consisting of
the purchase of advertising availabilities from cable operators on other
programming networks, commission guarantees for the operator, or upfront
payments to the operator in return for commitments to deliver a minimum number
of Home Shopping Network subscribers for a certain number of years. From time to
time, a cable network operated by HSN will be distributed on one or more cable
systems without a distribution agreement in effect while the parties negotiate a
new agreement, a process that may be protracted. While the cessation of carriage
by a major cable operator would have a negative impact on the financial results
of HSN, the Company has successfully managed the distribution agreement process
in the past, and believes it will continue to do so.

    BROADCAST TELEVISION DISTRIBUTION

    Home Shopping Network has entered into affiliation agreements with
television stations to carry HSN, America's Store and HSE programs. In addition
to the 13 owned and operated full-power (three of which do not carry HSN,
America's Store or HSE on a full-time basis) and 26 low-power television
stations owned by USAi, as of December 31, 2000, USAi has affiliation agreements
with 4 full-time, full-power stations, 37 part-time, full-power stations that
carry HSN, America's Store or HSE and 74 low-power stations. USAi has a minority
ownership interest in 4 of the full-time, full-power stations,

                                       13
<PAGE>
three of which carry HSN. The affiliation agreements have terms ranging from
several weeks to several years. All television station affiliates other than
stations owned by USAi receive an hourly or monthly fixed rate for airing HSN,
America's Store or HSE programs. Full-power television signals are carried by
cable operators within a station's coverage area. For more information, see "-
Regulation-Must-Carry/Retransmission Consent." Low-power station signals are
rarely carried by cable systems.

    USAi has entered into an agreement to transfer the above referenced 13 owned
and operated full-power television stations to Univision. The agreement with
Univision permits the ten stations that are currently airing HSN to continue to
do so until January 10, 2002.

    Home Shopping Network expects that, before HSN is dissaffiliated, it will
have entered into agreements with cable operators in the aforementioned markets
under which the cable operators will transition HSN from broadcast to satellite
feed upon disaffilation. Agreements with most cable operators have already been
reached, and Home Shopping Network expects that it will reach agreement with the
remaining operators and successfully manage the process of disaffiliation,
although there can be no assurance as to whether or when such agreements will be
reached, or their terms, which could have a negative impact on the financial
operations of Home Shopping Network. HSN customers in these markets who receive
HSN only through over-the-air broadcast television will not be able to receive
HSN unless they subscribe to a cable or satellite service that offers HSN. The
effect of this on HSN's financial results is currently being evaluated. A loss
in sales is expected, which would be partially offset by the elimination of the
costs of operating the television stations being sold. Based on preliminary
estimates, management believes that sales and EBITDA loss at HSN should be in
the range of approximately 6%, a loss that management believes to be
insignificant in relation to the proceeds associated with the Univision
transaction. There is no definitive way, however, to calculate in advance the
sales or EBITDA losses that will be associated with disaffiliation, and actual
sales and EBITDA losses could be higher.

    DIRECT BROADCAST SATELLITE DISTRIBUTION

    Home Shopping Network has entered into affiliation agreements with the two
largest direct broadcast satellite operators to carry HSN. The agreements are
multi-year arrangements, and obligate the direct broadcast satellite operator to
deliver a minimum number of HSN subscribers throughout the term in consideration
for a distribution payment and a commission based on net merchandise sales to
such subscribers. The direct broadcast satellite operators are also obligated to
assist with the promotional efforts of Home Shopping Network by carrying
commercials promoting HSN and by distributing Home Shopping Network's marketing
materials to its subscribers.

INTERNATIONAL HOME SHOPPING NETWORK VENTURES

    EUROPE.  On December 17, 1999, USAi entered into an agreement with Thomas
and Leo Kirch and Georg Kofler pursuant to which each agreed to cooperate with
each other to pursue on an exclusive basis in Europe televised shopping and
related e-commerce opportunities and to consider pursuing other media
opportunities in each case subject to preexisting obligations and applicable law
and regulation in the various member countries. The parties agreed to consider
alternatives consistent with applicable law with respect to the structure of any
entities formed to pursue such opportunities. To date, the parties have been
using HOT Networks AG, a German stock corporation owned 46.67% by Home Shopping
Network ("HOT Networks"), and its affiliates in pursuing these objectives.

    BELGIUM/FRANCE.  HOT Networks has also begun a French-language televised
shopping business called "HOT Le Grand Magasin" from a facility in Brussels,
Belgium and which is broadcast 24 hours a day in Belgium and France.

                                       14
<PAGE>
    GERMANY.  In 1999, the joint venture entity through which Home Shopping
Network participates in a German-language televised shopping business, H.O.T.
Home Order Television GmbH & Co. KG, was converted to a German AG ("HOT
Germany") which broadcasts 24 hours a day. Home Shopping Network owns 41.9% of
HOT Germany. In connection with such restructuring, Home Shopping Network and
Mr. Kofler entered into a shareholders agreement which, among other things,
provides that Mr. Kofler will vote his shares in HOT Germany as directed by Home
Shopping Network on certain matters including the election of a majority of the
members of the Supervisory Board of HOT Germany. Mr. Kofler also granted Home
Shopping Network a right of first refusal with respect to the stock in HOT
Germany held by him. Home Shopping Network also agreed to purchase Mr. Kofler's
HOT Germany stock under certain circumstances and agreed to vote as directed by
Mr. Kofler on various matters including the election of Mr. Kofler as Chairman
of the HOT Germany Supervisory Board.

    ITALY.  In 1998, Home Shopping Network entered into a joint venture
agreement with SBS Broadcasting System S.A. and SBS Italia S.r.l. ("SBS Italia")
to explore and, if deemed feasible, develop an Italian language televised
shopping business. During 1999, Home Shopping Network, SBS and SBS Italia agreed
to restructure the joint venture and to change the name of SBS Italia to HOT
Italia and to utilize HOT Italia as the vehicle for developing a live shopping
business in Italy. As a result of the restructuring, 51% of the equity of HOT
Italia was transferred to H.O.T. Home Order Television Europe GmbH & Co. KG
("Hot Europe") and 12% transferred to HOT Germany. HOT Europe is a partnership
in which Home Shopping Network has a 19.2% non-voting equity interest and that
is controlled by H.O.T. Home Order Television International GmbH ("HOT
International"). HOT International is owned by Georg Kofler, Thomas Kirch and
Quelle AG. Home Shopping Network's direct ownership interest in HOT Italia was
reduced to 18.5% as a result of this restructuring. HOT Germany contributed its
interest in HOT Italia to HOT Europe and Quelle assigned its interest in HOT
Europe and HOT International to Mr. Kofler.

    As of December 31, 2000, HOT Italia owned 10.1% of the equity of an entity,
Vallau Italia Promomarket ("VIP"), that operates an Italian national broadcast
network. HOT Italia entered into agreements to purchase 40% additional equity in
VIP from an Italian company called Internova S.p.A. as well as another 24.95% of
VIP from an Italian company called Profit S.p.A. The purchases under these
agreements have been completed, bringing HOT Italia's ownership interest in VIP
up to 75.05%. VIP had applied for a license to operate a national broadcast
network in Italy that was denied by the Italian authorities in May 2000.
However, an appeal has been filed and the Italian court system issued a stay in
VIP's favor on the government's order until this case is litigated, thus
allowing VIP to continue operating as it currently is until a judgment is
reached by the Italian court system. There can still be no assurance that VIP
will be granted a license and that HOT Italia will be able to acquire the
remaining 89.9% equity of VIP. On December 1, 2000, HOT Italia began
broadcasting with 4 hours of live programming each day. In the event a national
broadcast license or authorization is not granted after the above-mentioned
litigation, HOT Italia would be required to seek further alternative means of
distributing its programming. Currently, there are limited available means of
distributing television programming on a nationwide basis and there can be no
assurance that alternative means of distribution can be secured.

    CHINA.  In June 2000, Home Shopping Network purchased a 21% stake in TVSN
(China) Holdings Ltd. and will also have the ability to purchase a larger stake
in that co mpany over the next several years. TVSN, through its Chinese
partners, broadcasts a televised shopping business 18 hours a day in Mandarin
Chinese from facilities in Shanghai, People's Republic of China. TVSN currently
reaches approximately 19 million households in China.

                                       15
<PAGE>
    JAPAN.  In 1997, Home Shopping Network acquired a 30% interest in Jupiter
Shop Channel Co. Ltd., a venture based in Tokyo. Jupiter Shop Channel broadcasts
televised shopping 24 hours a day, of which 60 hours per week are devoted to
live shopping. Jupiter Shop Channel has reached agreements to be available in
approximately 3.37 million full-time equivalent households as of December 31,
1999. Liberty Media International, Inc., a subsidiary of Liberty, owns a 50%
interest in Jupiter Programming Co. Ltd. which is the 70% shareholder in the
venture.

    SPANISH LANGUAGE NETWORKS.  During 2000, Home Shopping Network continued to
operate HOME SHOPPING EN ESPANOL (which is also known as HOME SHOPPING ESPANOL)
and continues to seek to expand its distribution in the United States and
elsewhere in the Spanish speaking world. The Company has also agreed in
December 2000 to purchase three television stations in Puerto Rico that will
broadcast HOME SHOPPING ESPANOL's programming full-time, consistent with FCC
rules, as of February 1, 2001. The stations are WAVB-TV, San Juan, Puerto Rice,
WVEO-TV, Aguadilla, Puerto Rico, and WVOZ-TV, Ponce, Puerto Rico. The
transaction is subject to regulatory approval and customary closing conditions,
and is expected to close in 2001. Additionally, as of July 2000, HOME SHOPPING
ESPANOL began airing 24 hours a day, seven days a week with twelve hours live
and twelve hours taped per day.

integrated media marketing services, database-driven offers, catalogs and
promotion, in addition to fulfillment, customer service and merchandising
services for NBA.com. ECS also produces Short Shopping spots for the NBA. In
January 2001, ECS announced an agreement with Turner Sports Interactive, a
division of AOL Time Warner, pursuant to which ECS obtained the exclusive rights
to operate the online store on NASCAR.com. Also in January 2001, ECS announced
an agreement with SportsLine, Inc., under which ECS obtained the exclusive
rights to operate the online stores of CBS SportsLine.com and mvp.com. And in
February 2001, ECS announced a broad partnership with the PGA Tour, pursuant to
which ECS obtained the exclusive rights to operate the online store for all PGA
Tour-branded websites, as well as the exclusive rights to provide integrated
media marketing services, produce Short Shopping Spots, and leverage the online
store database to develop marketing programs for the Tour's marketing partners
and sponsors.

STYLECLICK

    STYLECLICK SERVICE FOR BUSINESS CUSTOMERS.  Styleclick provides customized
"end-to-end" e-commerce and merchandising solutions to companies in search of
effective and profitable online strategies. Styleclick offers such business
clients a range of services and products, including website design and
development; product imaging and presentation; merchandising; online sales,
visualization and merchandising technologies; and back-end integration. In
connection with Styleclick's operation of most of these websites, Styleclick
provides customer service and fulfillment through contractors including
affiliates of USAi. These websites are hosted on servers owned by Styleclick and
rely on a combination of third party and Styleclick proprietary technology to
operate. Styleclick generates revenue from clients of its customized
"end-to-end" e-commerce solutions via service fees charged for such design,
construction, operations and maintenance services, as well as service fees
charged for processing the sites' e-commerce transactions.

    Styleclick anticipates that ECS will be Styleclick's largest customer during
2001 as a result of ECS's engaging Styleclick to build the online store for
NASCAR, the PGA Tour and CBS/Sportsline as a part of the overall services
offered by ECS. In addition, Styleclick and ECS intend to seek opportunities to
expand Styleclick's role as a vendor of ECS. To the extent such opportunities
arise, Styleclick may become increasingly dependent upon ECS's ability to sell
services, including the services provided by Styleclick, to its existing and
future customers. ECS is under no obligation to use Styleclick's services and
there is no assurance that ECS will continue to use Styleclick's services, or to
use such services at the level anticipated by Styleclick. ECS's inability to
achieve anticipated sales levels, or its decision not to utilize the services of
Styleclick, could have a material adverse effect on Styleclick's business,
financial condition and results of operations.

    Styleclick has faced certain challenges in meeting its obligations to its
customers in a timely manner as a result of technology and other issues.
Styleclick management believes that with the technology platform acquired in
March 2001 from MVP.com, together with the employees hired in connection
therewith, Styleclick will be able to adequately address those challenges in the
near future. However, there can be no assurance that the technology platform
acquired from MVP.com will successfully address such problems, in which case
Styleclick faces the risk of losing existing customers, adversely affecting
Styleclick's results of operations and making it more difficult to attract new
customers.

                                       17
<PAGE>
    Styleclick and USAi are considering arrangements whereby USAi or its
affiliates would provide certain administrative and operational services to
Styleclick. Styleclick expects that these arrangements, if adopted, would reduce
Styleclick's expenses and may improve the likelihood that ECS would supply
business opportunities to Styleclick. There can be no assurance that such
arrangements will be put in place, what the terms of such arrangements would be
or whether such arrangements would, in fact, result in increased business
opportunities for Styleclick.

    STYLECLICK SERVICE OR CONSUMERS.  Styleclick designs, builds and operates
for itself e-commerce websites, some of which operate under trademarks that it
owns and some of which operate under licensed trademarks. Styleclick's revenue
sources for all of these sites include sales to consumers, including shipping
and handling charges, and often include service fees charged for design
construction, operations and maintenance services. Although Styleclick has
purchased inventory in the past, it has ceased doing so and intends to source
its product for these sites in the future through consignment and drop-ship
arrangements. Styleclick has substantially decreased emphasis on its consumer
services operating under Styleclick-owned brands, including decreasing marketing
cash expenditures and inventory expenditures.

    RECENT DEVELOPMENTS.  In March 2001, Styleclick announced a new company
organization designed to advance its offering of scalable commerce services. The
announcement included Styleclick's acquisition of the MVP.com technology
platform. Also in March 2001, the Styleclick Board elected two executives of ECS
to top management positions at Styleclick and certain senior executives of
Styleclick left the company.

    As a result of current and anticipated operating losses of Styleclick and
the continuing evaluation of operations and technology, management recorded a
write-down of $145.6 million as goodwill amortization as of December 31, 2000.
Management is continuing to evaluate the operations of Styleclick, which could
result in additional write-downs and costs to further restructure the business
to improve results.

REGULATION

    CURRENT FCC REGULATION

    HSN programming is distributed throughout the country via full-power and
low-power broadcast television stations, cable television systems and direct
broadcast satellite systems. HSN has an affiliate relationship with most of the
television broadcast stations that distribute HSN programming. However, several
of these stations are owned by subsidiaries of USA Broadcasting, HSN's sister
corporation. Broadcasters, cable television system operators and direct
broadcast satellite operators are subject to substantial federal regulation,
particularly under the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and
regulations promulgated thereunder by the FCC. Cable television systems are also
subject to regulation at the state and local levels. Because HSN relies on these
regulated entities for distribution of its programming, any changes in the
regulations summarized below may impact a substantial portion of HSN's business.

    The following is a brief summary of certain provisions of the Communications
Act (as amended) and specific FCC regulations and policies. Further information
concerning the nature and extent of federal regulation of broadcast stations is
found in the Communications Act, FCC rules and the public notices and rulings of
the FCC.

    REGULATION OF CABLE SYSTEM OPERATORS AFFILIATED WITH VIDEO PROGRAMMING
     VENDORS

    The Cable Television Consumer Protection and Competition Act of 1992 (the
"1992 Act") prohibits a cable operator from engaging in unfair methods of
competition that prevent or significantly hinder competing multichannel video
programming distributors from providing satellite-delivered programming to their
subscribers. The FCC has adopted regulations to (1) prevent a cable operator
that has an attributable interest, including voting or non-voting stock
ownership of at least 5%, in a

                                       18
<PAGE>
programming vendor from exercising improper influence over the programming
vendor in the latter's dealings with competitors to cable; and (2) to prevent a
programmer in which a cable operator has an attributable interest from
discriminating between cable operators and other multichannel video programming
distributors, including other cable operators.

    The FCC's rules may have the effect, in some cases, of requiring vertically
integrated programmers to offer their programming to multichannel video
programming distributor competitors of cable television, and of prohibiting
certain exclusive contracts between such programmers and cable system operators.
The rules also permit multichannel video programming distributors to bring
complaints before the FCC if they are unable to obtain cable programming on
non-discriminatory terms because of "unfair practices" by the programmer.

    Under the 1992 Act, the FCC set a 40% limit on the number of programming
channels on a cable system that may be occupied by video programmers in which
the cable operator has an attributable interest. The U.S. Court of Appeals for
the D.C. Circuit has overturned the 40% limit and remanded the issue to the FCC.

    STATE AND LOCAL REGULATION

    Cable television systems are generally constructed and operated under
non-exclusive franchises granted by a municipality or other state or local
governmental entity. Franchises are granted for fixed terms and are subject to
periodic renewal. The Cable Communications Policy Act of 1984 places limitations
on the ability of a local franchising authority to control the operations of a
cable operator, and the courts from time to time have reviewed the
constitutionality of several franchise requirements, often with inconsistent
results. The 1992 Act prohibits exclusive franchises, and allows local
franchising authorities to exercise greater control over the operation of
franchised cable television systems, especially in the areas of customer service
and rate regulation. The 1992 Act also allows local franchising authorities to
operate their own multichannel video distribution systems without having to
obtain franchises. Moreover, local franchising authorities are immunized from
monetary damage awards arising from their regulation of cable television systems
or their decisions on franchise grants, renewals, transfers, and amendments.

    The terms and conditions of franchises vary materially from jurisdiction to
jurisdiction. Cable franchises generally contain provisions governing time
limitations on the beginning and completion of construction, and governing
conditions of service, including the number of channels, the types of
programming but not the actual cable programming channels to be carried, and the
provision of free service to schools and certain other public institutions. The
specific terms and conditions of a franchise and the laws and regulations under
which it is granted directly affect the profitability of the cable television
system, and thus the cable television system's financial ability to carry
programming. Local governmental authorities also may certify to regulate basic
cable rates. Local rate regulation for a particular system could result in
resistance on the part of the cable operator to the amount of subscriber fees
charged by USAi for its programming.

    Various proposals have been introduced at the state and local levels with
regard to the regulation of cable television systems, and a number of states
have enacted legislation subjecting cable television systems to the jurisdiction
of centralized state governmental agencies. USAi is not able to predict the
impact such regulation could have on its businesses.

    OTHER CABLE REGULATION

    Cable television operators also are subject to regulations concerning the
commercial limits in children's programming and political advertising.

                                       19

    BROADCAST TELEVISION LICENSE GRANT AND RENEWAL

    The Communications Act provides that a broadcast license, including the
licenses controlled by USA Broadcasting, may be granted to any applicant upon a
finding that the public interest, convenience and necessity would be served
thereby, subject to limitations. Television stations operate according to
broadcasting licenses that are usually granted by the FCC for a maximum
permitted term of eight years, subject to renewal upon application to the FCC.

    ALIEN OWNERSHIP OF TELEVISION BROADCAST STATIONS

    The Communications Act prohibits the issuance of a broadcast license to, or
the holding of a broadcast license by, any corporation of which more than 20% of
the capital stock is beneficially or nominally owned or voted by non-U.S.
citizens or their representatives or by a foreign government or a representative
thereof, or by any corporation organized under the laws of a foreign country
(collectively, "Aliens"). The Communications Act also authorizes the FCC, if the
FCC determines that it would be in the public interest, to prohibit the issuance
of a broadcast license to, or the holding of a broadcast license by, any
corporation directly or indirectly controlled by any other corporation of which
more than 25% of the capital stock is beneficially or nominally owned or voted
by Aliens. The FCC has issued interpretations of existing law under which these
restrictions in modified form apply to other forms of business organizations,
including partnerships.

    MULTIPLE AND CROSS OWNERSHIP

    Under the FCC's rules, an individual or entity may hold attributable
interests in an unlimited number of television stations nationwide, subject to
the restriction that no individual or entity may have an attributable interest
in television stations reaching, in the aggregate, more than 35% of the national
television viewing audience (subject to a 50% discount in the number of
television households attributed to any UHF station).

    The FCC's "television duopoly" rule bars any entity from having attributable
interests in two television stations in the same Nielsen Designated Market Area
(DMA) unless: (1) one of the two stations is not among the top four in audience
share and (2) at least eight independently owned and operated commercial and
noncommercial television stations will remain in the DMA if the proposed
transaction is consummated. The rule also permits common ownership of two
television stations with overlapping service contours if they are assigned to
different DMAs or where one of the stations to be commonly owned has failed, is
failing or is unbuilt or where extraordinary public interest factors are
present.

    Under the FCC's current Attribution Rules, a party will be deemed to have a
cognizable interest in a television or radio station, cable system or daily
newspaper that triggers the FCC's cross-ownership restrictions if (1) it is a
non-passive investor and it owns 5% or more of the voting stock in the media
outlet; (2) it is a passive investor (i.e., bank trust department, insurance
company or mutual fund) and it owns 20% or more of the voting stock; or (3) its
interest (which may be in the form of debt or equity (even if non-voting), or
both) exceeds 33% of the total asset value of the media outlet and it either
(i) supplies at least 15% of a station's weekly broadcast hours or (ii) has an
attributable interest, independent of this total asset rule, in another media
outlet in the same market.

    The FCC has eliminated its single majority shareholder exception, which
previously enabled a single shareholder that owned more than 50 percent of a
media outlet's voting stock to be the only attributable shareholder in that
outlet, even if other shareholders in that media outlet had interests (such as
5% or more of the voting stock) that otherwise would have caused them to be
attributable. All interests that were deemed to be non-attributable based on the
single majority shareholder exception as of January 2001 will continue to be
treated as non-attributable interests.

                                       20
<PAGE>
    DIGITAL TELEVISION

    The FCC has taken a number of steps to implement digital television service
(including high-definition television) in the United States. The table of
digital allotments provides each existing television station licensee or
permittee with a second broadcast channel to be used during the transition to
digital television, conditioned upon the surrender of one of the channels at the
end of the digital television transition period.

    The digital television implementing rules permit broadcasters to use their
assigned digital spectrum flexibly to provide either standard or high-definition
video signals and additional services, including, for example, data transfer,
subscription video, interactive materials, and audio signals, subject to the
requirement that they continue to provide at least one free, over-the-air
television service. The FCC has set a target date of 2002 for completion of
construction of digital television facilities and 2006 for expiration of the
digital transition period, subject to biennial reviews to evaluate the progress
of digital television, including the rate of consumer acceptance.

    On September 12, 2001, the FCC plans to auction the 700 MHz spectrum
currently occupied by television broadcast stations on Channels 60-69 for new
wireless uses. Despite the scheduled auction, broadcasters will not be required
to cease operating on Channels 60-69 until December 31, 2006 (the scheduled end
of the DTV transition period). However, the FCC has adopted rules that will
allow television stations to vacate their 700 MHz spectrum on an expedited basis
though voluntarily negotiated agreements between broadcast licensees and the
high bidders in the 700 MHz auction.

    USAi continually reviews developments relating to the FCC's digital
television proceedings, and the digital television industry generally. Material
developments in this regard could have an impact on USAi's businesses. For
example, low-power television stations, including those owned by USAi, as well
as other HSN low-power television affiliates, may have to cease operations due
to irremediable interference to or from new digital television allocations.
However, under procedures established in the digital television rulemaking
proceeding, licensees of these low-power television stations may file
applications for authorization to shift their operations to an alternative
channel if a viable alternative can be identified.

    CHILDREN'S TELEVISION PROGRAMMING

    Under legislation enacted in 1990, the amount of commercial matter that may
be broadcast during programming designed for children 12 years of age and
younger is limited to 12 minutes per hour on weekdays and 10.5 minutes per hour
on weekends. In addition, the FCC has adopted a guideline for processing
television station renewals under which stations are found to have complied with
the Children's Television Act if they broadcast three hours per week of "core"
children's educational programming, which, among other things, must have as a
significant purpose serving the educational and informational needs of children
16 years of age and younger. A television station found not to have complied
with the "core" programming processing guideline could face sanctions, including
monetary fines and the possible non-renewal of its broadcasting license, if it
has not demonstrated compliance with the Children's Television Act in other
ways.

    TELEVISION VIOLENCE

    As part of a directive in the Telecommunications Act, the broadcast and
cable television industries have adopted, and the FCC has approved a voluntary
content ratings system which, when used in conjunction with so-called "V-Chip"
technology, would permit the blocking of programs with a common rating. The FCC
directed that all television receiver models with picture screens 13 inches or
greater be equipped with "V-Chip" technology under a phased implementation that
began on July 1, 1999. USAi cannot predict how changes in the implementation of
the ratings system and "V-Chip" technology will affect its business.

                                       21
<PAGE>
    EEO

    The FCC recently adopted equal employment opportunity rules, which require
stations to widely disseminate information regarding job openings, maintain
records of their equal employment opportunity program and outreach efforts,
prepare annual employment reports and file, with the FCC, certifications of
compliance with the equal employment opportunity program every other year.
However, the FCC's rules were struck down as unconstitutional by the U.S. Court
of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in January 2001. Although the courts ruling does
not become effective until the court issues its mandate, on January 31, 2001,
the FCC suspended its EEO rules.

    MUST-CARRY/RETRANSMISSION CONSENT

    Television broadcasters are required to make triennial elections to exercise
either "must-carry" or "retransmission consent" rights with respect to their
carriage by cable systems in each broadcaster's local market. By electing
must-carry rights, a television broadcaster demands carriage on a specified
channel on cable systems within its television market (defined by Nielsen as a
Designated Market Area (DMA)). Alternatively, if a television broadcaster
chooses to exercise retransmission consent rights, it can prohibit cable systems
from carrying its signal or grant the appropriate cable system the authority to
retransmit the broadcast signal for a fee or other consideration. Home Shopping
Network is affected by the must-carry rule. The FCC currently is conducting a
rulemaking proceeding to determine whether, in certain circumstances, it should
require carriage of a television station's digital and analog signals.

    SHVIA

    The Satellite Home Viewer Improvement Act ("SHVIA"), which was enacted on
November 29, 1999 provides, among other things, for a statutory copyright
license to enable satellite carriers to retransmit local television broadcast
stations into the stations' respective local markets. SHVIA does not require
satellite carriers to deliver local stations in into their local markets--so
called "local-into-local" service. However, as of January 1, 2002, a satellite
carrier that chooses to carry at least one local television broadcast station
signal pursuant to the statutory copyright must also carry any other full power
local television station in the market that requests carriage. In certain
instances, a satellite carrier is not required to carry duplicative signals of
commercial television stations serving the same local market. Satellite carriers
will be prohibited from providing local-into-local service without the consent
or must-carry election of such station, but stations will be obligated to engage
in good faith retransmission consent negotiations with the carriers.

    CLOSED CAPTIONING

    The FCC's closed captioning rules, which became effective January 1, 1998,
provide for the phased implementation, beginning in the year 2000, of a
universal on-screen captioning requirement with respect to the vast majority of
video programming. The captioning requirement applies to programming carried on
broadcast television stations and cable programming networks. Home Shopping Club
has applied to the FCC for waivers of the closed captioning rules. Parties are
not required to comply with the closed captioning rules while they have waiver
requests pending.

    OTHER BROADCAST TELEVISION REGULATIONS

    The FCC continues to enforce its regulations concerning "indecent"
programming, political advertising, environmental concerns, technical operating
matters and antenna tower maintenance and marking. In addition, FCC regulations
governing network affiliation agreements mandate that television broadcast
station licensees retain the right to reject or refuse network programming or to
substitute programming that the licensee reasonably believes to be of greater
local or national importance. Violation of FCC regulations can result in
substantial monetary forfeitures, periodic reporting

                                       22
<PAGE>
conditions, short-term license renewals and, in egregious cases, denial of
license renewal or revocation of license.

    CABLE TELEVISION RATE REGULATION

    The Telecommunications Act phased out cable rate regulation, except with
respect to the "basic" tier, which must include all local broadcast stations and
public, educational, and governmental access channels and must be provided to
all subscribers. Home Shopping Network and America's Store programming are
distributed on the basic tier in some areas, and "expanded basic" tiers in other
areas. Rate regulation of all non-basic tiers including the expanded basic tiers
was eliminated as of March 31, 1999. The local franchising authorities are
primarily responsible for regulating the basic tier of cable service. Because
USAi's revenues are, to some degree, affected by changes in cable subscriber
rates, increased regulation of cable subscriber rates, or a reduction in the
rates that cable service providers may charge customers, could have a
significant impact on USAi's revenues.

    PROPOSED CHANGES

    Congress and the FCC have under consideration, and in the future may
consider and adopt, new laws, regulations and policies regarding a wide variety
of matters that could affect, directly or indirectly, the operation, ownership
and profitability of USAi's broadcast stations and broadcast and cable
programming networks. In addition to the changes and proposed changes noted
above, such matters include, for example, rate regulation for upper tiers of
service, political advertising rates and potential restrictions on the
advertising of products (beer, wine and hard liquor, for example). Other matters
that could affect USAi's regulated media businesses include technological
innovations and developments generally affecting competition in the mass
communications industry, such as direct radio and television broadcast satellite
service, the continued establishment of wireless cable systems, digital
television and radio technologies, and the advent of telephone company
participation in the provision of video programming service.

    OTHER REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS

    The summary presented above does not purport to be a complete discussion of
all provisions of the Communications Act or other congressional acts or of the
regulations and policies of the FCC. For further information, you should review
the Communications Act, other congressional acts, and regulations and public
notices promulgated from time to time by the FCC. There are additional
regulations and policies of the FCC and other federal agencies that govern
political broadcasts, public affairs programming, equal opportunity employment
and other matters affecting USAi's and USANi LLC's business and operations.

    In addition, increasing concern over consumer privacy, including regulations
relating to the use of the Internet with customer care and service, has let to
the introduction from time to time of proposed legislation, including at the
federal level, that could impact the Company's businesses. The Company cannot
predict whether any of these types of legislation will be enacted and what
effect, if any, it would have on the Company and its subsidiaries.

TRADEMARKS, TRADENAMES, COPYRIGHTS AND DOMAIN NAMES

    Holdco has registered and continues to register, when appropriate, its trade
and service marks as they are developed and used, and Holdco vigorously protects
its trade and service marks. Holdco believes that its marks are a primary
marketing tool for promoting its identity. Holdco obtains copyrights with
respect to its original programming as appropriate and registers the domain
names of its Internet websites.

COMPETITION

CABLE AND STUDIOS

    USA CABLE

    VIEWERSHIP AND ADVERTISING REVENUES.  USA Cable competes for access to its
customers and for audience share and revenue with broadcasters and other forms
of entertainment. Cable operators and other distributors only contract to carry
a limited number of the available networks. Therefore, they may decide not to
offer a particular network to their subscribers, or they may package a network
with other networks in a manner that only a portion of their subscribers will
receive the service (for example, by charging an additional fee). In addition,
there has been increased consolidation among cable operators, so that USA
Cable's networks have become increasingly subject to the carriage decisions made
by a small number of operators. This consolidation may reduce the per-subscriber
fees received from cable operators in the future. The consolidation also means
that the loss by any network of any one or more of its major distributors could
have a material adverse impact on that network. The competition for advertising
revenues also has become more intense as the number of television networks has
increased. While many factors affect advertising rates, ultimately they are
dependent on the numbers and types of viewers which a program attracts. As more
networks compete for viewers, it becomes increasingly difficult to increase or
even maintain a network's number of viewers. Moreover, to do so may require a
network to spend significantly greater amounts of money on programming.
Therefore, greater pressure may be placed on the networks' ability to generate
advertising revenue increases consistent with the increases they have achieved
in the past. Both USA Cable and Studios USA are affected by competition for
advertising revenues.

    THIRD-PARTY PROGRAMMING.  The competition for third-party programming is
likely to increase. Many networks, including USA Cable's networks, are
affiliated with companies that produce programming. This programming is becoming
increasingly difficult to acquire by anyone other than the affiliated networks.
As a result, with affiliated programming already generally spoken for, there is
likely to be strong competition to acquire remaining third party
(non-affiliated) programming.

    STUDIOS USA

    PROGRAMMING.  Studios USA operates in a highly competitive environment. The
production and distribution of television programming are highly competitive
businesses. Television programs produced by Studios USA compete with all other
forms of network and syndication programming, as well as other forms of
entertainment. Competition is also faced from other major television studios and
independent producers for creative talent, writers and producers. The
profitability of Studios USA is dependent upon factors such as public taste that
is volatile, shifts in demand, economic conditions and technological
developments.

    In 1995, the FCC repealed its financial interest and syndication rules
("fin-syn rules"). The fin-syn rules were adopted in 1970 to limit television
network control over television programming and to foster the development of
diverse programming sources. The rules had restricted the ability of the three
established, major U.S. televisions networks (I.E., ABC, CBS and NBC) to own and
syndicate television programming. The repeal of the rules has increased in-house
production of television programming for the networks' own use. As a result of
the repeal of the fin-syn rules, the industry has become increasingly vertically
integrated, with virtually all of the major broadcast networks being aligned
with a major studio. In addition, two major broadcast networks have formed their
own in-house production units. There can be no assurance that these changes will
not have a negative impact on Studios USA's business as its network customers
are now able to choose between their own product and Studios USA's product in
making programming decisions. Nonetheless, up through the current 2000/2001
season, Studios USA has continued to remain one of the primary independent
suppliers of U.S. television programming.

    The Home Shopping Network business operates in a highly competitive
environment. It is in direct competition with retail merchandisers, other
electronic retailers, direct marketing retailers such as mail order companies,
companies that sell from catalogs, other discount retailers and companies that
market through computer technology.

    Home Shopping Network and QVC, Inc. are currently the two leading electronic
retailing companies. Liberty, a subsidiary of AT&T which holds a substantial
equity interest in USAi and USANi LLC, currently owns 43% of QVC but has entered
into a stockholders agreement with Comcast Corporation, which owns 57% of QVC,
under which Comcast Corporation controls the day to day operations of QVC. There
are other companies, some having an affiliation or common ownership with cable
operators, that now market merchandise by means of live television. A number of
other entities are engaged in direct retail sales businesses which utilize
television in some form and which target the same markets in which Home Shopping
Network operates. Some competitors of the Home Shopping Network business are
larger and more diversified than USAi.

    VIEWERSHIP.  The Home Shopping Network business also competes for access to
its customers and for audience share and revenue with broadcasters and
conventional forms of entertainment and information, such as programming for
network and independent broadcast television stations, basic and pay cable
television services, satellite master antenna systems, home satellite dishes and
home entertainment centers, newspapers, radio, magazines, outdoor advertising,
transit advertising and direct mail. In particular, the price and availability
of programming for cable television systems affect the availability of these
channels for HSN, America's Store and HSE programming and the compensation which
must be paid to cable operators for carriage of HSN, America's Store and HSE
programming.

    CHANNEL CAPACITY.  In addition, due to a number of factors, including the
development of cable operator owned programming, the competition for channel
capacity has substantially increased. With the advent of digital cable and new
compression technologies on the horizon, this competition for channel capacity
may substantially decrease, although additional competitors may have the
opportunity to enter the marketplace. No prediction can be made with respect to
the viability of these technologies or the extent to which they will ultimately
impact the availability of channel capacity. A substantial portion of USAi's
businesses are affected by changes in channel capacity and competition among
programming providers for available channel capacity.

    HSN INTERNATIONAL

    HSN's largest competitor internationally is QVC. QVC operates QVC The
Shopping Channel in the United Kingdom and also QVC Deutschland GmbH in Germany.
QVC has also announced that it will begin a television shopping channel in Japan
in the spring of 2001. Other competitors to HSN in the international area
include Bertelsmann, which has also announced plans to begin a German-language
television shopping channel in Germany sometime in 2001. In France and portions
of Belgium, the French channels TF1 and M6 each have several hours daily of
French-language television shopping programming. Additionally, several other
companies have announced plans to begin television shopping channels in China
that would compete with HSN's interest in TVSN there. There are also other
operators throughout the world using infomercials and small amount of live
programming that compete with HSN's international operations.

    HSN INTERACTIVE

    HSN.COM.  Home Shopping Network operates HSN.com, an Internet retailing
service that competes with numerous other on-line retail operations, including
iQVC, which is operated by Home

                                       25
<PAGE>
Shopping Network's principal television retailing competitor. Home Shopping
Network/HSN.com potentially face competition from a number of large online
communities and services that have expertise in developing online commerce. USAi
believes that the principal competitive factors in this market are scale,
selection of goods, customer service, reliability of delivery, brand
recognition, website convenience and accessibility, price, quality of search
tools and system reliability.

    DIRECT SELLING PROGRAMS/OTHER TRANSACTIONAL TELEVISION OPPORTUNITIES.  Home
Shopping Network's businesses of producing and distributing Direct Selling
Programs and developing other transactional television opportunities compete
with numerous other infomercial and other businesses, some of which have
extensive experience in production, distribution and fulfillment. USAi believes
that the principal competitive factors in these markets are access to and
selection of goods and prominent personalities, price, production qualities,
market understanding, media selection and scale.

USA ELECTRONIC COMMERCE SOLUTIONS

    ECS competes with a number of companies in the online ventures category,
including Global Sports, FanBuzz and eVenator. ECS also competes with companies
that provide certain portions of its online store operations, including
fulfillment and customer service providers, transaction enablers and consulting
firms. In the area of direct marketing, ECS competes in a competitive and
fractured business against various online and offline marketers. In addition, as
the market for electronic retailing grows, other service providers may increase
their efforts to develop services that compete with those offered by ECS. ECS
believes that the principal competitive factors in its business are
scalabilility, depth of e-commerce offering and ability to offer end-to-end
solutions. There can be no assurance that ECS will be able to compete
successfully against current and future competitors.

STYLECLICK

    Styleclick faces competition from companies that currently provide
e-commerce services similar to those offered by Styleclick, including Blue
Martini, BEA, CrossCommerce, Digital River, Vcommerce, Global Sports, InterWorld
and Escalate. Certain of Styleclick's competitors may be advantaged as compared
to Styleclick with respect to technology, client lists, scale and access to
capital. In addition, Styleclick potentially faces competition from companies,
such as Amazon.com, that possess the technology and expertise necessary to
effectively operate large-scale e-commerce businesses, but that may not
currently offer such services to third parties. In addition, Styleclick's
consumer businesses face competition from auction companies including eBay,
Yahoo! Auctions, uBid, Microsoft Auctions, Auctionwatch and FairMarket, that
have significantly stronger brands, higher usage and greater resources than
Styleclick. In addition, Styleclick's challenges in meeting its obligations to
its existing customers may make it difficult for Styleclick to attract or
adequately service new customers. Styleclick's management believes that its
recent purchase of the technology platform of MVP.com, Inc. will improve its
competitive position in the marketplace, although it cannot guarantee that this
will be the case. Styleclick believes that the principal competitive factors in
this market are scale, selection of goods, customer service, reliability of
delivery, brand recognition, website convenience and accessibility, price,
quality of search tools and system reliability.

                                   EMPLOYEES

    As of the close of business on December 31, 2000, Holdco and its
subsidiaries employed approximately 6,890 full-time employees, with
approximately 1,080 employees employed by USA Cable and Studios USA, 5,520
employees employed by Electronic Retailing, 200 employees employed by
Styleclick, and 90 employees employed by USA Electronic Commerce Solutions.
Holdco believes that it generally has good employee relationships, including
with employees represented by unions and guilds.

                                       26
<PAGE>
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

    Holdco's facilities for its management and operations are generally adequate
for its current and anticipated future needs. Holdco's facilities generally
consist of executive and administrative offices, fulfillment facilities,
warehouses, operations centers, call centers, television production and
distribution facilities, satellite transponder sites and sales offices.

    All of Holdco's leases are at prevailing market (or "most favorable") rates
and, except as noted, with unaffiliated parties. Holdco believes that the
duration of each lease is adequate. Holdco believes that its principal
properties, whether owned or leased, are adequate for the purposes for which
they are used and are suitably maintained for such purposes. Most of the
office/studio space is substantially utilized, and where significant excess
space exists, Holdco leases or subleases such space to the extent possible.
Holdco anticipates no future problems in renewing or obtaining suitable leases
for its principal properties.

CORPORATE

    Holdco maintains its principal executive offices at Carnegie Hall Tower, 152
West 57th Street, New York, New York which consists of approximately 29,850
square feet leased by USAi through October 30, 2005.

CABLE AND STUDIOS

    The executive offices of USA Cable are located at 1230 Avenue of the
Americas, New York, New York 10020. USA Cable leases approximately 168,000
square feet at this office space under a lease that continues until March 31,
2005, subject to two five-year options to continue the term. USA Cable also has
smaller offices in Chicago (affiliate relations and sales), Detroit (sales), and
Los Angeles (affiliate relations, sales and programming).

    USA Cable also leases approximately 55,000 square feet in a facility in

Trio, including audio production, editing, graphics and duplication, also is
performed at this location. The lease for this space continues through
April 30, 2009, and there are options to continue the term beyond that time.

    Studios USA currently conducts its domestic television production and
distribution operations primarily from its executive and administrative offices
in West Hollywood, California (in a facility owned during 2000 by Ticketmaster
and sold, effective February 1, 2001, to USAi, located at 8800 Sunset Boulevard,
West Holywood, California 90069) and in New York City (in leased office space
located at 1325 Avenue of the Americas, New York, New York 10019). Additionally,
Studios USA has four domestic sales offices located in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas
and New York City. Production facilities in Southern California are leased
primarily from Universal on its Universal City lot on an as-needed basis
depending upon production schedules. Studios USA also leases production
facilities in New York City--for the production of LAW & ORDER, LAW & ORDER:
SPECIAL VICTIMS UNIT, DEADLINE, WELCOME TO NEW YORK, SALLY and MAURY, in

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

    In the ordinary course of business, USAi and Holdco and their subsidiaries
are parties to litigation involving property, personal injury, contract and
other claims. The amounts that may be recovered in these matters may be subject
to insurance coverage. Although amounts recovered in litigation are not expected
to be material to the financial position or operations of USAi and Holdco, this
litigation, regardless of outcome or merit, could result in substantial costs
and diversion of management and technical resources, any of which could
materially harm our business.

ASCAP LITIGATION

    USA Cable's networks, USA Network, Sci Fi Channel, Trio and NWI, along with
almost every other satellite-delivered network, are involved in continuing
disputes regarding the amounts to be paid by it for the performance of
copyrighted music in the repertories of the American Society of

                                       28
<PAGE>
Composers, Authors and Publishers ("ASCAP") and by Broadcast Music, Inc.
("BMI"). The payments to be made to ASCAP will be determined in a "rate court"
proceeding under the jurisdiction of the U.S. District Court for the Southern
District of New York. In the initial phase of this proceeding, it was determined
that USA Network must pay ASCAP interim license fees calculated at 3% of the
gross revenues of USA Network. The same interim fee subsequently has been agreed
to for Sci Fi Channel, Trio and NWI. This fee level is subject to upward or
downward adjustment based on the ultimate outcome of the rate court proceeding,
or as the result of future negotiations. The relevant time periods are
subsequent to January 1, 1986 with respect to USA Network and subsequent to
launch with respect to Sci Fi Channel, Trio and NWI. As to BMI, interim fees are
being paid by USA Network, Sci Fi Channel, Trio and NWI. These interim fees are
subject to upward or downward adjustment, based on a future negotiated
resolution or submission of the issue to BMI's own federal "rate court." USA
Network's fees to BMI are final through June 30, 1992 and interim thereafter.
The fees of the remaining services are interim from their dates of launch. USAi
cannot predict the final outcome of these disputes, but does not believe that it
will have a material impact on its financial results.

HOME SHOPPING NETWORK CONSUMER CLASS ACTION

    On November 15, 1999, Home Shopping Network was named as a defendant in a
consumer class action lawsuit entitled BRUCE TOMPKINS, HENRIETTA BUCK AND JODI
HABEL HILL ON BEHALF OF THEMSELVES AND ALL OTHER SIMILARLY SITUATED INDIVIDUALS
V. PROTEVA, INC., HOME SHOPPING NETWORK, INC. D/B/A HOME SHOPPING NETWORK AND
THE HOME SHOPPING NETWORK, JOHN ROBERTS, VIVIAN ROBERTS MCKINLEY, KN CHAN,
WILLIAM LYNCH AND BRIAN JORDAN, filed in the Chancery Division of the Circuit
Court of Cook County, Illinois, Case No. 99 CH 12013. The action is purportedly
brought on behalf of consumers who were alleged to have purchased a Proteva
personal computer from one of the defendants and experienced one of the three
following conditions: (a) the computer was or became defective upon purchase or
soon thereafter, (b) a defendant refused or failed to honor the rebate offer
which was offered as part of the sale, or (c) a defendant refused or failed to
provide customer service as purportedly advertised. In the complaint, the
plaintiffs assert causes of action for consumer fraud, breach of implied
warranty of merchantability and unjust enrichment and seek compensatory and
punitive damages along with interest, costs and attorneys' fees. Home Shopping
Network has filed an answer to the complaint.

    The plaintiffs filed an amended class action complaint that, among other
things: (i) added an additional named plaintiff, Susan Leff (ii) added Home
Shopping Club LP, Warrantech Helpdesk, Inc., Banctech Service, Inc. and
Timespace Internet, Inc. as named defendants, (iii) removed two individuals as
named defendants, Vivian Roberts McKinley and Kn Chan, and (iv) expanded the
existing warranty cause of action to also apply to breach of express warranty.
On May 9, 2000, Home Shopping Network, Inc. and Home Shopping Club LP (the "HSN
Defendants") filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On May 23, 2000,
the Cook County Circuit Court addressed the HSN Defendants' motion to dismiss by
entering an Order that, in pertinent part, required the plaintiffs to file a
second amended complaint. On June 6, 2000, the plaintiffs filed a second amended
class action complaint that, among other things, added an additional named
plaintiff, Anastasia Kolias, and asserted two additional causes of action for
negligent misrepresentation and breach of contract. The HSN Defendants have
filed an answer and affirmative defenses to the second amended complaint.

    On December 1, 2000, the plaintiffs filed a third amended class action
complaint that, among other things: (i) added an additional named plaintiff,
Wayne Varner, (ii) apparently removed three corporate defendants, Warrantech
Helpdesk, Inc., Banctec Services Corp. and Timespace Internet, Inc., and
(iii) removed causes of actions for negligent misrepresentation and breach of
contract. The HSN Defendants have filed an answer and affirmative defenses to
the third amended complaint. The parties are engaged in the discovery process.
On February 27, 2001, the plaintiffs filed a motion for class certification. The
HSN Defendants intend to oppose the motion for class certification and will
continue to vigorously defend this action.

URBAN LITIGATION

    Beginning in October 1996, Home Shopping Club, Inc. ("HSC"), predecessor in
interest to HSN LP, withheld monthly payments under the Affiliation Agreement
with Urban Broadcasting Corporation due to breaches of the Affiliation Agreement
by Urban. Urban contested this action. In addition, on January 10, 1997, Urban
filed an Emergency Request for Declaratory Ruling with the FCC requesting an
order that the requirement in the Affiliation Agreement that Urban broadcast at
full-power violates the FCC's rules, or alternatively, requesting that the FCC
revise the terms of the Affiliation Agreement to bring it into compliance with
its Rules. Urban also requested that the FCC undertake an inquiry into USAi's
actions of withholding payments to Urban to determine whether USAi is fit to
remain an FCC licensee. On December 17, 1999, Urban filed a Supplement to
Emergency Request for Declaratory Relief requesting that the FCC (1) set a
deadline for reformation of several agreements between the parties, (2) rule
that the station's power authorized level is lower than the level set by current
authorizations and (3) agree not to pass on any applications for assignment or
transfer of the station. Certain entities controlled by USAi filed an opposition
to this Request on January 10, 2000 to which Urban replied on January 27, 2000.
As of this date, no ruling has been issued by the FCC.

    On October 23, 1997, HSC filed suit against Urban in the Circuit Court for
Arlington County, Virginia seeking a judicial declaration that it was entitled
to withhold the payments in dispute because of Urban's breaches of the
Affiliation Agreement. Urban responded with counterclaims and began a related
action in the Circuit Court against HSC, HSN, Inc. (now USAi) and Silver King
Broadcasting of Virginia, Inc. (now USA Station Group of Virginia, Inc.
("USA-SGV")). Urban asserted contract and tort claims related to HSC's decision
to withhold affiliation payments. A trial was held on April 5-7, 1999. At the
conclusion of Urban's case, the court ruled that Urban's evidence be struck and
that judgment be entered in favor of HSC, USAi and USA-SGV on all counts of
Urban's First Amended Motion for Judgment. Further, the court ruled that the
related chancery action, which had been consolidated with the law action for
trial, be severed for further proceedings at some future date. A Final Order of
Judgment concerning the above rulings was entered by the court on May 5, 1999.
On May 3, 1999, HSC, USAi and USA-SGV filed a Motion for Summary Judgment
directed to all remaining counts in the chancery action. Urban has appealed the
judgment in the law action to the Virginia Supreme Court. In addition, on
June 11, 1999, judgment was entered in favor of HSC, USAi and USA-SGV on all
Urban's counterclaims in the chancery suit, and the trial court granted HSC's
request for a declaratory judgment that HSC had not breached the Affiliation
Agreement. Urban failed to file a timely appeal of the judgment in the chancery
suit. Based on Urban's failure to appeal the chancery suit, USAi has moved to
dismiss Urban's appeal in the related law action. A hearing on the motion to
dismiss was heard on February 16, 2000. On March 1, 2000, the Virginia Supreme
Court granted the motion to dismiss and dismissed Urban's petition for appeal
related to the at-law action. On or about March 15, 2000, Urban filed a petition
for rehearing which was denied by the Virginia Supreme Court on April 21, 2000.

    On April 20, 2000, Urban filed a motion in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the
Eastern District of Virginia seeking to have that Court reopen Urban's prior
Chapter 11 case and clarify certain factual and legal matters contained within
the Court's September 30, 1996 confirmation order. In addition, Amresco Funding
Corporation, the entity that provided Urban with bankruptcy exit financing,
joined in Urban's motion. By Order dated May 3, 2000, the Court denied Urban's
motion. On May 15, 2000, Urban filed a motion requesting that the Court
reconsider its May 3, 2000 ruling, or, in the alternative, amend findings of
fact. By Memorandum Opinion and Order dated June 9, 2000, the Court denied
Urban's motion to reconsider, or, in the alternative, to amend findings of fact.

    On November 12, 1999, the Arlington County Circuit Court granted USA-SGV a
default judgment against Urban arising from Urban's defaults on the Loan
Agreement for $10,552,060.64, plus interest, plus $8,131 in attorneys fees and
costs. Urban has noted an appeal of this judgment. Urban's appeal of

                                       30
<PAGE>
this judgment was denied by the Virginia Supreme Court on June 2, 2000, and
Urban's petition for rehearing was denied on July 21, 2000.

    On August 1, 2000, Urban and Mr. Theodore M. White, President and owner of
all of the voting stock of Urban, filed voluntary petitions under Chapter 11 of
the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of
Columbia. USA-SGV filed motions on August 3, 2000 requesting the Court to:
(a) transfer venue of Urban's bankruptcy case from the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for
the District of Columbia to the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District
of Virginia, and (b) appoint a Chapter 11 trustee for Urban. The U.S. Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Columbia granted USA-SGV's motion to transfer venue.
An evidentiary hearing on USA-SGV's motion for entry of an order directing
appointment of a Chapter 11 trustee for Urban was scheduled to occur before the
Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia on November 29, 2000. On
November 29, 2000, the parties entered into a Stipulation and Consent Order Re
Motion to Appoint Chapter 11 Trustee. The foregoing order is in the process of
being administered by the parties. The Company does not believe that this
litigation will have a material impact on its financial results.

MARKETINGWORKS LITIGATION

    On October 14, 1999, Marketingworks, Inc., a home video distribution
company, filed a complaint against Universal Studios Home Video and Studios USA
Television Distribution LLC ("Universal/ USA") in Los Angeles Superior Court,
alleging contract and tort claims in connection with a home video series
consisting of out-takes from the Jerry Springer Show. Marketingworks contends
that in January, 1997, it disclosed confidential marketing plans to Universal
Television, which were subsequently appropriated for use in the "out-take" home
video series. In January, 2000, Universal/ USA removed the case to Federal Court
on the basis of copyright preemption and because Marketingworks sought federal
remedies under the Lanham Act. Trial is currently set for July 3, 2001.
Universal/USA believes it is unlikely that this claim will present any material
liability to the Company and intends to vigorously defend against the lawsuit.

RTL LITIGATION

    On August 25, 2000, RTL Plus Deutschland Fernsehen GMBH & Co. Betriebs-KG,
Companie Luxembourgeoise de Telediffusion S.A. and UFA Film-Und
Fernseh-GMBH &Co. KG (collectively "RTL") filed a complaint in the Netherlands
against Universal Studios International B.V. ("USI"). USI, the international
distribution entity of Universal Studios, Inc., has the rights, subject to
various exemptions, to distribute internationally certain television programs
owned by Studios USA and other USAi entities. The complaint involves a 10-year
"output" agreement between the RTL and USI, signed July 30, 1996, pursuant to
which, among other things, certain television programs owned by Studios USA and
other USAi entities are distributed in Germany (the "RTL Output Agreement"). The
RTL Output Agreement also includes "co-production" provisions under which RTL
acquires an equity interest in certain programs. The complaint, based on
equitable doctrines of "mistake of fact" and "unforeseen circumstances,"
requests the court to modify or nullify RTL's licensing and "co-production"
obligations with respect to current television programs. Studios USA and its
affiliated companies are not parties to the RTL Output. On November 22, 2000,
USAi moved to intervene or, alternatively, to join USI, in the Netherlands
proceeding. Studios USA and its affiliated entities believe the RTL complaint to
be without merit, and intend to vigorously protect their interests.

TRACY KEENAN WYNN, ET AL. V. NATIONAL BROADCASTING COMPANY, INC., ET AL.

    On October 20, 2000, plaintiffs, a group of television writers over the age
of forty, filed a purported class action in the United States District Court for
the Central District of California Western Division, against many talent
agencies, television networks and studios, including Studios USA LLC, alleging
that the defendants were discriminating against older writers by not hiring them
for writers positions. In November, 2000, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint
adding new plaintiffs, and alleging claims for relief against Studios USA LLC
(and others) for: (1) Violation of Federal and State Civil Rights Laws,
including the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. Section 623, the
California Fair Employment and Housing Act, California Government Code Sections
12940 and 12941, and the New York Human Rights Law, N.Y. Exec. Law Section 296;
(2) Aiding and Abetting Violations of Civil Rights Laws; (3) Conspiracy to
Violate Civil Rights (with other commonly owned or affiliated defendants); and
(4) Breach of the Collective Bargaining Agreement under the Labor Management
Relations Act, 29 U.S.C. Section 301.

    Studios USA LLC has filed a motion to dismiss this action, or in the
alternative, to sever the claims against Studios USA LLC from the claims against
the other defendants, based on, among other things, the fact that plaintiffs
have alleged a twenty-year conspiracy against a company that was incorporated
only several years ago, and the fact that there are a lack of specific
allegations against Studios USA LLC. The hearing on the motion, originally set
for February 12, 2001, was taken off the calendar and the judge has taken the
matter under submission without oral argument. Studios USA LLC believes it is
unlikely that this claim will present any material liability to the Company and
intends to vigorously defend against the lawsuit.

                                    PART II

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

    The Holdco's common stock is not quoted on any stock exchange and is not
traded. The common stock held by Liberty is exchangeable for shares of USAi
common stock and Class B common stock on a one-for-one basis. All outstanding
shares are held by USAi and Liberty.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSIONS AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
  OF OPERATIONS

                                    GENERAL

    Home Shopping Network, Inc. (the "Company" or "Holdco"), is a holding
company, whose subsidiary USANi LLC, is engaged in diversified media and
electronic commerce businesses. In December 1996, the Company consummated a
merger with USA Networks, Inc. ("USAi"), and became a subsidiary of USAi (the
"Home Shopping Merger").

    On July 27, 2000, the Company and Styleclick.com Inc., an enabler of
e-commerce for manufacturers and retailers ("Styleclick.com"), completed the
merger of Internet Shopping Network ("ISN") and Styleclick.com (the "Styleclick
Transaction").

    In March 2001, Styleclick announced a new company organization designed to
advance its offering of scaleable commerce services. The announcement included
Styleclick's acquisition of the MVP.com technology platform. Also in March 2001,
the Styleclick Board elected two executives of ECS to top management positions
at Styleclick, and certain senior executives of Styleclick left the company.

    As a result of the current and anticipated operating losses of Styleclick
and the continuing evaluation of the operations and technology, management
determined the goodwill recorded in conjunction with the Styleclick Merger is
impaired and recorded a write-down of $145.6 million as goodwill amortization as
of December 31, 2000. Management is continuing to evaluate the operations

                                       32
<PAGE>
of Styleclick, which could result in additional write-downs and costs to further
restructure the business to improve results.

    The five principal areas of business are:

    - CABLE AND STUDIOS, consisting of the cable networks USA Network and Sci Fi
      Channel and Studios USA, which produces and distributes television
      programming.

    - ELECTRONIC RETAILING, consisting primarily of HSN and America's Store, HSN
      International and HSN Interactive, including HSN.com.

    - USA ELECTRONIC COMMERCE SOLUTIONS, which primarily represents the
      Company's electronic commerce solutions business.

    - STYLECLICK, a facilitator of e-commerce websites and Internet enabled
      applications which includes the Company's online retailing networks.

    - EMERGING NETWORKS, consists primarily of the recently acquired cable
      television properties Trio and NewsWorld International, which were
      acquired on May 19, 2000, and SciFi.com, an emerging Internet content and
      commerce site.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

  YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2000 VS. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999

    NET REVENUES

    For the year ended December 31, 2000 revenues increased by $673.7 million,
or 25.1%, to $3.4 billion from $2.7 billion in 1999 primarily due to increases
of $437.2 million, $225.8 million and $19.1 million from the Electronic
retailing, Cable and studios and Emerging networks businesses, respectively,
partially offset by a decrease in the Styleclick business of $6.7 million.

    USAi has entered into an agreement to transfer 13 owned and operated
full-power television stations to Univision. The agreement with Univision
permits the ten stations that are currently airing HSN to continue to do so
until January 10, 2002.

    Home Shopping Network expects that, before HSN is disaffiliated, it will
have entered into agreements with cable operators in the aforementioned markets
under which the cable operators will transition HSN from broadcast to satellite
feed upon disaffiliation. Agreements with most cable operators have already been
reached, and Home Shopping Network expects that it will reach agreement with the
remaining operators and successfully manage the process of disaffiliation,
although there can be no assurance as to whether or when such agreements will be
reached, or their terms, which could have a negative impact on the financial
operations of Home Shopping Network. HSN customers in these markets who receive
HSN only through over-the-air broadcast television will not be able to receive
HSN unless they subscribe to a cable or satellite service that offers HSN. The
effect of this on HSN's financial results is currently being evaluated. A loss
in sales is expected, which would be partially offset by the elimination of the
costs of operating the television stations being sold. Based on preliminary
estimates, management believes that sales and EBITDA loss at HSN should be in
the range of approximately 6%, a loss that management believes to be
insignificant in relation to the proceeds associated with the Univision
transaction. There is no definitive way, however, to calculate in advance the
sales or EBITDA losses that will be associated with disaffiliation, and actual
sales and EBITDA losses could be higher.

    The increase in Electronic retailing primarily resulted from Home Shopping
Network's core business, which generated increased sales of $152.0 million,
electronic retailing operations in Germany, which generated increased sales of
$224.4 million, HSN.com, which generated increased sales of $39.9 million on
revenues of $41.6 million, and Home Shopping en Espanol, which generated
increased

                                       33
<PAGE>
sales $10.3 million. Total units shipped increased to 33.4 million units
compared to 32.0 million units in 1999, and the price point increased to $48.56
per unit as compared to $45.45 in 1999. Furthermore, the return rate decreased
to 19.9% from 20.3% in 1999. As of January 1, 2000, the Company presents the
operations of HOT Germany on a consolidated basis whereas the investment was
previously accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Revenues for the
German operations were $224.4 million in 2000 as compared to $166.7 million in
1999.

    The increase in Cable and studios primarily resulted from an increase in
advertising revenues at USA Network and a significant increase in advertising
revenues and affiliate revenues at Sci Fi Channel due to an increase in
subscribers and higher ratings and increased affiliate revenues at both
networks. Net revenues at Studios USA increased due primarily to increased
productions for USA Network and the Sci Fi Channel, increased deliveries of
network drama and reality productions, and increased performance of talk shows.
Note that Studios USA defers revenue recognition for internally produced series
for the USA Network and Sci Fi Channel until the product is aired on the
networks.

    Net revenues of Emerging networks increased by $19.1 million to
$20.3 million from $1.2 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2000 as
compared to 1999 due to the acquisition of Trio and NewsWorld International on
May 19, 2000. Prior to this acquisition, the results reflect only SciFi.com.

    Revenue from on-line retailing networks on the companies auction sites
decreased $12.2 million as compared to 1999 due to the merger of ISN and
Styleclick, and the integration of the ISN sites with the Styleclick technology.
Styleclick revenue was $5.6 million for the period subsequent to acquisition.

    In connection with its increased focus on its e-commerce service provider
business, Styleclick has significantly reduced its online retailing networks
business. Accordingly, Styleclick has ceased purchasing inventory for its online
retailing networks business and is in the process of selling its inventory on
hand. Ultimately, Styleclick intends to sell products that are obtained either
on consignment or a drop-ship basis. Such changes will result in substantially
reduced revenues from product sales when compared to historical results. Revenue
from the online retailing networks business was $20.9 million, or approximately
94% of revenue, for the year ended December 31, 2000.

    OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES

    For the twelve months ended December 31, 2000, total operating costs and
expenses increased $753.0 million, or 32.1%, to $3.1 billion from $2.3 billion
compared to 1999, primarily due to increased costs of $399.5 million,
$112.0 million, $23.3 million and $19.2 million from the Electronic retailing,
Cable and studios production, Emerging networks, and Electronic commerce and
services businesses, respectively, increased depreciation and amortization of
$201.3 million, including $145.6 million recorded at December 31, 2000 related
to Styleclick and increased amortization of cable distribution fees of
$9.6 million. The increased costs are related to the higher revenue of all of
the businesses, the consolidation of the German electronic retailing operations
as of January 1, 2000 and increased start-up costs for emerging businesses.
Depreciation and amortization increased as a result of capital expenditures and
acquisitions, including Styleclick, NWI and Trio. Amortization of cable
distribution fees increased due to higher cost distribution arrangements.

    OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

    For the twelve months ended December 31, 2000, net interest expense
decreased by $27.2 million, compared to 1999 primarily due to lower borrowing
levels as a result of the repayment of bank debt in prior years from the
proceeds of equity transactions involving Universal and Liberty Media
Corporation, a subsidiary of AT&T Corporation ("Liberty"). In the twelve months
ended December 31, 2000, the Company realized a pre-tax gain of $104.6 million
based upon the exchange of 25% of ISN for 75% of Styleclick.com in the
Styleclick Transaction. Also, the Company realized a pre-tax loss of

                                       34
<PAGE>
$35.7 million related to the write-off of investments to fair value. In the
twelve months ended December 31, 1999, the Company realized pre-tax gains of
$89.7 million related to the sale of securities. Furthermore, the Company
recognized other income of $10.4 million from the reversal of equity losses
which were recorded in 1998 as a result of the Universal transaction.

                               MINORITY INTEREST

    Minority interest primarily represents Universal's and Liberty's ownership
interest in USANi LLC and the public's ownership interest in Styleclick since
July 27, 2000.

                                  INCOME TAXES

    The Company's effective tax rate, calculated after deducting the effects of
USANi LLC minority interest, of 57.9% for the twelve months ended December 31,
2000 is higher than the statutory rate due to the effects of state taxes and
non-deductible goodwill.

  YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1999 VS. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998

    NET REVENUES

    For the year ended December 31, 1999, net revenues increased
$353.6 million, or 15.2%, to $2.7 billion from $2.3 billion compared to 1998
primarily due to increases of $218.9 million and $134.0 million from the Cable
and studios and the Electronic retailing businesses, respectively.

    The increase in Cable and studios revenues primarily resulted from an
increase in advertising revenues due to higher ratings at USA Network and a
significant increase in advertising revenues and affiliate revenues at Sci Fi
Channel. The Networks increase was offset by lower revenues at Studios USA due
to fewer deliveries of network product, fewer pilots produced and significantly
increased usage of internally produced series for which revenue recognition is
deferred until aired on USA Network and Sci Fi Channel. The increase in
Electronic retailing revenues primarily resulted from HSN's core business, which
generated increased sales of $115.0 million, including sales increases of
$93.9 million from Home Shopping Network and America's Store and $25.3 million
from continuity services. Furthermore, sales on Home Shopping en Espanol
increased by $5.4 million. Total units shipped increased by 10.8% to
32.0 million units compared to 28.9 million units in 1998. The increase in net
revenues also reflected a decrease in the return rate to 20.3% from 21.0% in
1998.

    OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES

    For the year ended December 31, 1999, total operating costs and expenses
increased $214.2 million, or 11.1%, to $2.1 billion from $1.9 billion compared
to 1998, primarily due to increased costs of $98.5 million, $74.5 million and
$28.4 million from the Electronic retailing, Cable and studios and Styleclick
businesses, respectively.

    The increase in costs and expenses of Electronic retailing resulted
primarily from higher sales volume and higher merchandising personnel costs.
Also contributing to the increase in costs were international sales and costs
associated with developing the Company's Short Shopping concept. Cable and
studios costs and expenses increased due to the full year impact in 1999 of the
Universal transaction, although the increase was offset by a decrease which
resulted primarily from lower overhead and marketing costs, lower television
production and increased usage of internally developed product. The increase in
costs and expenses of Styleclick resulted primarily from increased costs to
maintain and enhance the Internet services; the costs incurred to develop and
launch FIRSTJEWELRY.COM in October 1999 and increased costs of shipping product
as First Auction expanded its product mix.

                                       35
<PAGE>
    Goodwill amortization increased by $16.4 million due to the full year impact
in 1999 of the Universal transaction.

    OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE)

    For the year ended December 31, 1999, net interest expense decreased by
$47.1 million, compared to 1998 primarily due to lower borrowing levels as a
result of the repayment of bank debt in the fourth quarter of 1998 and in 1999
from the proceeds of equity transactions involving Universal and Liberty Media
Corporation, a subsidiary of AT&T Corporation ("Liberty"). In addition, lower
interest rates resulted in decreased interest expense.

    In the year ended December 31, 1999, the Company realized gains of
$89.7 million related to the sale of securities and $10.4 million from the
reversal of equity losses which were recorded in 1998 as a result of the
Universal transaction.

                               MINORITY INTEREST

    Minority interest primarily represents Universal's and Liberty's ownership
interest in USANi LLC.

                                  INCOME TAXES

    The Company's effective tax rate, calculated after deducting the effects of
USANi LLC minority interest, of 46.4% for the twelve months ended December 31,
1999 is higher than the statutory rate due to the effects of state taxes and
non-deductible goodwill.

                                  SEASONALITY

    USANi LLC's businesses are subject to the effects of seasonality. Cable and
studios revenues are influenced by advertiser demand and the seasonal nature of
programming, and generally peak in the spring and fall.

    USANi LLC believes seasonality impacts its Electronic Retailing segment but
not to the same extent it impacts the retail industry in general.

ITEM 7(A). QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

    INTEREST RATE RISK

    The Company's exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates
relates primarily to the Company's short-term investment portfolio and issuance
of debt. The Company does not use derivative financial instruments in its
investment portfolio. The Company has a prescribed methodology whereby it
invests its excess cash in debt instruments of government agencies and high
quality corporate issuers. To further mitigate risk, the vast majority of the
securities have a maturity date within 60 days. The portfolio is reviewed on a
periodic basis and adjusted in the event that the credit rating of a security
held in the portfolio has deteriorated.

    At December 31, 2000, the Company's outstanding debt approximated
$524.1 million, substantially all of which is fixed rate obligations. If market
rates decline, the Company runs the risk that the related required payments on
the fixed rate debt will exceed those based on the current market rate.

    FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RISK

    The Company conducts business in certain foreign markets. However, the level
of operations in foreign markets is insignificant to the consolidated results.

    EQUITY PRICE RISK

    The Company has no investments in equity securities of publicly-traded
companies. It is not customary for the Company to make investments in equity
securities as part of its investment strategy.

merger with USA Networks, Inc. ("USAi"), formerly known as HSN, Inc., and became
a subsidiary of USAi (the "Home Shopping Merger").

    On February 12, 1998, the Company acquired USA Cable, a New York general
partnership, consisting of cable television networks, USA Network and Sci Fi
Channel ("USA Cable"), as well as the domestic television production and
distribution businesses of Universal Studios ("Studios USA") from Universal
Studios, Inc. ("Universal"), an entity controlled by The Seagram Company Ltd.
("Seagram") (the "Universal Transaction").

    In connection with the Universal Transaction, the Company formed a new
subsidiary, USANi LLC, and contributed the operating assets of the Home Shopping
Network services ("HSN") to USANi LLC. Furthermore, USAi contributed USA Cable
and Studios USA to USANi LLC on February 12, 1998.

    On July 27, 2000, the Company and Styleclick.com Inc., an enabler of
e-commerce for manufacturers and retailers ("Styleclick.com"), completed the
merger of Internet Shopping Network ("ISN") and Styleclick.com (the "Styleclick
Transaction"). See Note 3.

    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and all wholly-owned and voting-controlled subsidiaries. Significant
intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

NOTE 2--SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
    Investments in which the Company owns a 20%, but not in excess of 50%,
interest and where it can exercise significant influence over the operations of
the investee, are accounted for using the equity method. All other investments
are accounted for using the cost method. The Company periodically evaluates the
recoverability of investments recorded under the cost method and recognizes
losses if a decline in value is determined to be other than temporary.

REVENUES

    CABLE AND STUDIOS

    Television production revenues are recognized as completed episodes are
delivered. Generally, television programs are first licensed for network
exhibition and foreign syndication, and subsequently for domestic syndication,
cable television and home video. Certain television programs are produced and/or
distributed directly for initial exhibition by local television stations,
advertiser-supported cable television, pay television and/or home video.
Television production advertising revenues (i.e., sales of advertising time
received by Studios USA in lieu of cash fees for the licensing of program
broadcast rights to a broadcast station ("barter syndication")) are recognized
upon both the commencement of the license period of the program and the sale of
advertising time pursuant to non-cancelable agreements, provided that the
program is available for its first broadcast. Foreign minimum guaranteed amounts
are recognized as revenues on the commencement date of the license agreement,
provided the program is available for exhibition.

    USA Cable advertising revenue is recognized in the period in which the
advertising commercials are aired on cable networks. Provisions are recorded
against advertising revenues for audience under deliveries ("makegoods").
Affiliate fees are recognized in the period during which the programming is
provided.

    ELECTRONIC RETAILING

    Revenues from electronic retailing primarily consist of merchandise sales
and are reduced by incentive discounts and sales returns to arrive at net sales.
Revenues are recorded for credit card sales upon transaction authorization, and
for check sales upon receipt of customer payment, which does not vary
significantly from the time goods are shipped. Home Shopping's sales policy
allows merchandise to be returned at the customer's discretion within 30 days of
the date of delivery. Allowances for returned merchandise and other adjustments
are provided based upon past experience.

    PROGRAM RIGHTS

    License agreements for program material are accounted for as a purchase of
program rights. The asset related to the program rights acquired and the
liability for the obligation incurred are recorded at their net present value
when the license period begins and the program is available for its initial
broadcast. The asset is amortized primarily based on the estimated number of
airings. Amortization is computed generally on the straight-line basis as
programs air; however, when management estimates that the first airing of a
program has more value than subsequent airings, an accelerated method of
amortization is used. Other costs related to programming, which include program
assembly, commercial integration and other costs, are expensed as incurred.
Management periodically reviews the carrying value of program rights and records
write-offs, as warranted, based on changes in programming usage.

    MERCHANDISE INVENTORIES, NET

    Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, cost
being determined using the first-in, first-out method. Cost includes freight,
certain warehouse costs and other allocable overhead. Market is determined on
the basis of net realizable value, giving consideration to obsolescence and
other factors. Merchandise inventories are presented net of an inventory
carrying adjustment of $37.9 million and $29.1 million at December 31, 2000 and
1999, respectively.

    CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

    Cash and cash equivalents include cash and short-term investments.
Short-term investments consist primarily of U.S. Treasury Securities, U.S.
Government agencies and certificates of deposit with original maturities of less
than 91 days.

    PROPERTY, PLANT AND EQUIPMENT

    Property, plant and equipment, including significant improvements, are
recorded at cost. Repairs and maintenance and any gains or losses on
dispositions are included in operations.

    Depreciation and amortization is provided for on a straight-line basis to
allocate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated
service lives.

    Depreciation and amortization expense on property, plant and equipment was
$65.2 million, $41.0 million and $35.0 million for the years ended December 31,
2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

    LONG-LIVED ASSETS INCLUDING INTANGIBLES

    The Company's accounting policy regarding the assessment of the
recoverability of the carrying value of long-lived assets, including goodwill
and other intangibles and property, plant and equipment, is to review the
carrying value of the assets if the facts and circumstances suggest that they
may be impaired. If this review indicates that the carrying value will not be
recoverable, as determined based on the projected undiscounted future cash
flows, the carrying value is reduced to its estimated fair value.

    CABLE DISTRIBUTION FEES

    Cable distribution fees relate to upfront fees paid in connection with
multi-year cable contracts for carriage of Home Shopping's programming. These
fees are amortized to expense on a straight line basis over the terms of the
respective contracts.

    ADVERTISING

    Advertising costs are primarily expensed in the period incurred. Advertising
expense for the years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998 were
$127.5 million, $95.5 million and $88.8 million, respectively.

    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

    The Company accounts for stock-based compensation in accordance with APB 25,
ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES. In cases where exercise prices are
less than fair value as of the grant date, compensation is recognized over the
vesting period.

    MINORITY INTEREST

    Minority interest represents the ownership interests of third parties in the
net assets and results of operations of certain consolidated subsidiaries.

    ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

    Management of the Company is required to make certain estimates and
assumptions during the preparation of consolidated financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These estimates and
assumptions impact the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosures
of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated
financial statements. They also impact the reported amount of net earnings
during any period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

    Significant estimates underlying the accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the inventory carrying adjustment, program rights and film
cost amortization, sales return and other revenue allowances, allowance for
doubtful accounts, recoverability of intangibles and other long-lived assets,
estimates of film revenue ultimates and various other operating allowances and
accruals.

    NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

    In June 2000, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee ("AcSEC") issued
SOP 00-2, ACCOUNTING BY PRODUCERS OR DISTRIBUTORS OF FILMS("SOP 00-2"), which
replaces FASB Statement No. 53, FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING BY PRODUCERS AND
DISTRIBUTORS OF MOTION PICTURE FILMS.The AcSEC concluded that film costs would
be accounted for under an inventory model. In addition, the SOP addresses such
topics as revenue recognition (fixed fees and minimum guarantees in variable fee
arrangements), fee allocation in multiple films, accounting for exploitation
costs, and impairment assessment. The SOP is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2000.

    The Company is currently evaluating the impact of SOP 00-2, although the
impact is not expected to be material.

    RECLASSIFICATIONS

    Certain amounts in the prior years' consolidated financial statements have
been reclassified to conform to the 2000 presentation, including all amounts
charged to customers for shipping and handling, which are now presented as
revenue.

STYLECLICK TRANSACTION

    On July 27, 2000, USAi and Styleclick.com Inc., a leading enabler of
e-commerce for manufacturers and retailers, completed the merger of Internet
Shopping Network and Styleclick.com. The entities were merged with a new
company, Styleclick, Inc., which owns and operates the combined properties of
Styleclick.com and ISN. Styleclick, Inc. is traded on the Nasdaq market under
the symbol "IBUY". In accordance with the terms of the agreement, USAi invested
$40 million in cash and agreed to contribute $10 million in dedicated media, and
received warrants to purchase additional shares of the new company. At closing,
Styleclick.com repaid the $10 million of borrowing outstanding under a bridge
loan made by USAi.

    The aggregate purchase price, including transaction costs, of
$211.9 million was determined as follows:

</TABLE>

    The fair value of Styleclick.com was based on the fair value of $15.78 per
share times 7.7 million shares outstanding. Fair value of the shares was
determined by taking an average of the opening and closing price of
Styleclick.com common stock for the period just before and just after the terms
of the transaction were agreed to by the Company and Styleclick.com and
announced to the public. In conjunction with the transaction, the Company
recorded a pre-tax gain of $104.6 million based upon the 25% of ISN exchanged
for 75% of Styleclick.com.

    The Styleclick transaction has been accounted for under the purchase method
of accounting. The purchase price has been preliminarily allocated to the assets
acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values at the
date of purchase. The unallocated excess of acquisition costs over net assets
acquired of $170.2 million has been allocated to goodwill, which is being
amortized over 3 years. Assets and liabilities as of the acquisition date
consist of the following:

then-existing $275.0 million revolving credit facility. The credit facility
consists of (1) a $600.0 million revolving credit facility with a $40.0 million
sub-limit for letters of credit, (2) a $750.0 million Tranche A Term Loan and,
(3) a $250.0 million Tranche B Term Loan. The Tranche A Term Loan and the
Tranche B Term Loan have been permanently repaid as of December 31, 1999, as
described below. The revolving credit facility expires on December 31, 2002.

    On November 23, 1998, USAi and USANi LLC completed an offering of
$500.0 million 6 3'4% Senior Notes due 2005 (the "Notes"). Proceeds received
from the sale of the Notes together with available cash were used to repay and
permanently reduce $500.0 million of the Tranche A Term Loan. On August 5, 1998,
USANi LLC permanently repaid the Tranche B Term Loan in the amount of
$250.0 million from cash on hand. In 1999 the Company permanently repaid the
Tranche A Term Loan in the amount of $250.0 million from cash on hand.

    The existing credit facility is guaranteed by certain of USAi's material
subsidiaries. The interest rate on borrowings under the existing credit facility
is tied to an alternate base rate or the London InterBank Rate, in each case,
plus an applicable margin, and $596.3 million was available for borrowing as of
December 31, 2000 after taking into account outstanding letters of credit. The
credit facility includes covenants requiring, among other things, maintenance of
specific operating and financial ratios and places restrictions on payments of
dividends, incurrence of indebtedness and investments. The Company pays a
commitment fee of .1875% on the unused portion of the credit facility.

    Pro forma information regarding net income and earnings per share is
required SFAS 123. The information is determined as if the Company had accounted
for its employee stock options granted subsequent to December 31, 1994 under the
fair market value method. The fair value for these options was estimated at the
date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
weighted-average assumptions for 2000, 1999 and 1998: risk-free interest rates
of 5.0%; a dividend yield of zero; a volatility factor of .62, .44, and .56,
respectively, based on the expected market price of USAi Common Stock based on
historical trends; and a weighted-average expected life of the options of five
years.

    The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating
the fair market value of traded options which have no vesting restrictions and
are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input
of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock price volatility.
Because the Company's employee stock options have characteristics significantly
different from those of traded options and because changes in the subjective
input assumptions can materially affect the fair market value estimate, in
management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable
single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options.

    For purposes of pro forma disclosures, the estimated fair value of the
options is amortized to expense over the options' vesting period. The Company's
pro forma information follows:

evidenced by a demand note and accrue interest at the Company's borrowing rate
under the credit facility.

NOTE--19 GUARANTEE OF NOTES

    USAi issued $500.0 million 6 3'4% Senior Notes due 2005 (the "Notes"). USANi
LLC is a co-issuer and co-obligor of the Notes. The Notes are jointly,
severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of USAi,
including the Company and all of the subsidiaries of USANi LLC (other than
subsidiaries that are, individually and in the aggregate, inconsequential to
USANi LLC on a consolidated basis) (collectively, the "Subsidiary Guarantors").
All of the Subsidiary Guarantors (other than the Company) (the "Wholly Owned
Subsidiary Guarantors") are wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company
or USANi LLC, as the case may be.

    Separate financial statements for each of the Wholly Owned Subsidiary
Guarantors are not presented and such Wholly Owned Subsidiary Guarantors are not
filing separate reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 because the
Company's management has determined that the information contained in such
documents would not be material to investors.
