Exhibit 10.1

              Agreement Between the Newspaper National Network and

                           Global Network Incorporated

     This agreement is entered into on this 27th day of March, 2001, between the
Newspaper  National  Network  ("NNN"),  a for-profit  affiliate of the Newspaper
Association of America located at 20 West 33rd Street,  New York, New York 10001
and Global Network Incorporated, a public company located at 575 Madison Avenue,
New York, New York 10022, hereinafter ("GNI").

                                    RECITALS

     1. NNN is in the business of soliciting  certain  categories of advertising
from  advertisers  and agencies for  insertion  as ROP  advertising  in over one
thousand newspapers  participating in its program.  When NNN's solicitations are
successful, NNN arranges for the advertising to be placed in accordance with the
customer's wishes,  for billings to be made, and for the proceeds,  net of NNN's
fees and costs, to be distributed to participating newspapers.

     2. GNI is in the business of soliciting  advertising  from  advertisers and
their  agencies  for  insertion on  newspaper  web-sites in about three  hundred
newspapers   participating  in  its  program.   When  GNI's   solicitations  are
successful, GNI arranges for the advertising to be placed in accordance with the
customer's wishes,  for billings to be made, and for the proceeds,  net of GNI's
fees and costs, to be distributed to participating newspapers.

     3. GNI has expertise in Web site  advertising but does not have an adequate
sales force to call upon the  advertiser and agency  prospects  solicited by NNN
and wishes to retain NNN to offer such  prospects  GNI's  web-site  coverage  in
conjunction with NNN's own solicitations.  NNN is willing to make such offers in
return  for a  commission  based  on  sales  of  web-site  advertising  to  such
prospects.  To  provide  NNN with the  technical  expertise  needed to make such
offers, GNI is willing to train NNN personnel, prepare research and presentation
materials for their use and undertake the further obligations set out herein.

     In  consideration of this Agreement and the payments  provided herein,  the
parties agree as follows:

1. Duties of GNI:

     GNI shall provide the  following  professional  services by assignment  for
     NNN.

     Training

     GNI will  provide  sales  training  to NNN's  individual  sales  people and
     prepare  presentation  materials for their use in dealing with prospects in
     the NNN categories.

                                       1
<PAGE>

     Such  materials  will  document  the benefits of  advertising  on newspaper
     web-sites   and  use  of  GNI  software  for  placing  and  tracking   such
     advertising.

     Selling

     GNI  will,  upon  request  from  NNN,  assist  representatives  of  NNN  in
     developing sales materials specific to the web-site portion of ROP-web-site
     proposals.   Such   assistance   shall  include   preparing   research  and
     presentations.  GNI will  accompany  NNN  staff on sales  calls at the sole
     discretion  of  NNN  sales   executives  and  will  not  engage  in  direct
     negotiations with NNN sales contacts.

     Ordering and Processing

     At the  discretion of the NNN sales  person,  who will be  responsible  for
     directing  negotiations,  GNI will  prepare the portion of any  advertising
     order  dealing  with the  web-site  advertising,  as  either a  stand-alone
     proposal  or  integrated  with  the NNN  submission.  Once the  client  has
     approved,  GNI  will  issue  the  order  for the  web-site  portion  to its
     newspapers,  process the order,  handle the billing in a timely  manner and
     ensure  that the  client is given  any/all  documentation  that the  client
     requests  to assure  compliance  with the  order.  GNI will use  reasonable
     efforts to resolve any disputes as to compliance to the mutual satisfaction
     of the client and the Web site.

     Materials

     The materials provided by GNI pursuant to this Agreement will be revised as
     needed to meet with NNN's approval.

2. Duties and Compensation of NNN:

     In  conjunction  with  its ROP  solicitations  NNN will  offer  prospective
     clients  advertising  on the GNI  newspapers'  web-sites  using pricing and
     terms of sale  authorized  by GNI. GNI  represents  and  warrants  that the
     pricing  and terms GNI will  authorize  NNN to quote to  prospects  are the
     prices and terms  GNI's  newspaper  web-sites  have  established  for their
     services, augmented by the amount GNI has established,  independently or by
     agreement with particular  newspapers,  as compensation for GNI's services.
     It is understood  that NNN will act strictly as a messenger in transmitting
     the total of such  prices  and terms to  prospective  clients.  NNN will be
     under no obligation to solicit  advertising  outside its categories,  or to
     solicit  advertising for single markets or single newspapers,  or engage in
     other solicitation outside its normal course of business.  NNN will be paid
     a  commission  of 5% of GNI's  gross  billing to clients  for the  web-site
     advertising.  GNI will  remit  payment  directly  to NNN within ten days of
     GNI's having received payment from the client.

                                       2

3. Independence of GNI:

     The parties agree that GNI is an independent contractor, not an employee or
     agent of NNN for federal, state or local tax purposes.  Thus GNI is free to
     perform  services for a multiple number of unrelated  companies at the same
     time.  It  is  expressly  understood  that  GNI  is  not  entitled  to  and
     irrevocably  waives  any  rights to  participate  in any  employee  benefit
     program, including but not limited to salary, pension, severance, insurance
     or retirement plan, flexible spending accounts, or leave provided by NNN to
     its employees.

4. Subcontractors:

     GNI  shall  have the right to engage  one or more  subcontractor(s)  of its
     choosing to perform the  services  set forth in paragraph 1. Subject to the
     provisions of paragraph 7, NNN shall have no right to control the method or
     manner by which GNI  performs its  obligations  under this  Agreement.  Any
     subcontractors used by GNI after the effective date of this Agreement shall
     be subject  to the terms of the  Agreement,  and GNI will  obtain a written
     acknowledgment from such subcontractors that they agree to be bound by this
     Agreement.   GNI  shall   provide   NNN  with   copies   of  such   written
     acknowledgments.

5. Costs:

     GNI shall be solely  responsible for the costs of providing its services to
     NNN,  including  but not  limited  to all costs of  transportation,  tools,
     equipment,  materials,  and all of  GNI's  other  costs in  performing  the
     services.  Likewise, NNN will be responsible for the costs of providing its
     service.

6. Benefits:

     GNI shall be responsible for providing all insurance, retirement plans, and
     other benefits,  including without limitation personal health and liability
     insurance, that may be provided to its employees.

7. Performance of GNI:

     GNI shall also bear all risks and  expenses  associated  with or  resulting
     from  GNI's  performance  under  this  Agreement.  Each of GNI and NNN will
     indemnify and hold the other harmless against all claims, losses,  damages,
     liabilities,  expenses and costs,  including reasonable attorneys' fees and
     disbursements,  that GNI or NNN,  as the case may be,  incur as a result of
     the other's breach of its  representations,  warranties and  obligations in
     this  Agreement.  Neither  GNI nor NNN  will be  liable  for any  indirect,
     special,  incidental or consequential damages, including lost profits, loss
     of business  information  and the like, even if GNI or NNN, as the case may

                                       3
<PAGE>

     be, has been advised of the possibility of such damages.  GNI shall perform
     its obligations  under this agreement in a manner consistent with the level
     of care and skill  ordinarily  exercised by members of the same  profession
     under  similar  conditions.  The parties  agree that if, after a reasonable
     period of time,  not to exceed 20 days after GNI is paid by the client,  if
     NNN has not  been  paid by GNI,  NNN  shall  have the  right to treat  such
     default as a material  breach of this  Agreement  by GNI  entitling  NNN to
     terminate this Agreement pursuant to paragraph 11.

8. Presentation Materials, Trademark License:

          (a) NNN  acknowledges  and  agrees  that GNI shall  own the  exclusive
     rights,   including  but  not  limited  to  copyright  rights,  title,  and
     proprietary  interests in the  presentation  materials  prepared for NNN by
     GNI.  However,  subject to the scope of the  license  set forth in the next
     sentence, GNI hereby grants to NNN a nonexclusive worldwide license to use,
     reproduce,  prepare derivative works,  display,  transmit or distribute the
     materials  or any  portion  thereof,  through any means and in any form now
     known or  hereafter  crafted  or  invented  including,  by way of  example,
     phonographic records,  film,  microfilm,  microfiche,  slides,  filmstrips,
     transparencies,  magnetic tape, video cassettes, video discs, floppy discs,
     computers, CD-ROM, or any other human or machine-readable medium. The scope
     of the  license  granted  is  limited  to  NNN's  use of the  materials  in
     accordance with its obligations under this Agreement,  and the license will
     terminate on the date this Agreement is terminated or expires. GNI warrants
     and represents that the materials  provided by it or by any  subcontractors
     that it engages  under this  Agreement  will not  violate or  infringe  any
     intellectual  property,  trade  secret,  or any  other  rights of any third
     party.  GNI further  warrants and represents  that these materials will not
     contain any defamatory,  disparaging,  or unlawful matter. Upon termination
     of this  Agreement,  NNN will  return to GNI any such  materials  yet to be
     delivered to clients, which are still in NNN's possession.

          (b) During  the term of this  Agreement,  GNI  hereby  grants to NNN a
     non-exclusive,  non-transferable  license to use the corporate name "Global
     Network,  Inc.," and  trademarks  "Global  Network,  Inc.," "GNI," "the GNI
     System" and brand names and logotypes  (now or during the term)  associated
     with  such   corporate  name  and   trademarks   (collectively,   the  "GNI
     Trademarks")  solely  in  connection  with  the  offering  and  selling  to
     prospective  advertisers  of  advertising  on  GNI  newspaper  websites  in
     accordance with the terms of this Agreement. NNN shall not use, directly or
     indirectly, the GNI Trademarks in any way other than as expressly permitted
     herein and shall  protect  GNI's  rights to the  trademark  by applying the
     symbol(R),  TM or SM, as the case may be, to all materials used pursuant to
     this Agreement,  including advertising and promotional materials. NNN shall
     not use the GNI Trademarks as part of its corporate name. NNN  acknowledges

                                       4
<PAGE>

     that the GNI Trademarks are the sole and exclusive property of GNI and that
     NNN has no rights or claims of any type to the GNI  Trademarks  except such
     rights as are created by this  Section  8(b).  NNN  irrevocably  waives and
     releases  any claim to title  and  ownership  rights in the GNI  Trademarks
     licensed hereunder.

          (c) Both  parties  recognize  and  understand  the  importance  of the
     other's  exercise  of  control  over the  quality of the use of NNN and GNI
     Trademarks so as to preserve the continued  validity of the  Trademarks and
     to protect the goodwill  associated  therewith,  and shall obtain the prior
     approval of the owner of said Trademarks  with respect to any  utilization.
     Both parties agree to discontinue immediately any use of the Trademarks (x)
     in any manner that has not been  approved by the owner of said  Trademarks,
     or (y) upon termination of this Agreement. Neither party will knowingly (i)
     use  Trademarks  in any manner or commit any other act that would be likely
     to  materially  jeopardize  NNN's  or  GNI's  rights  in  their  respective
     Trademarks,  (ii)  do  any  act  that  would  invalidate  or be  likely  to
     invalidate or impair NNN or GNI Trademarks,  or (iii) use, suffer or permit
     the use of the Trademarks in any manner that would devalue,  injure, demean
     or  dilute  the  goodwill  or  reputation  of NNN or GNI or the  NNN or GNI
     Trademarks in any material respect.

9. Right of First Refusal:

          (a) In the event GNI  receives  from any third party a bona fide offer
     (the "Offer") to purchase all or part of GNI's Intellectual Property Rights
     (defined below),  and GNI wishes to sell such Intellectual  Property Rights
     pursuant to the Offer,  GNI shall promptly  furnish to NNN a written notice
     (the  "Offer  Notice")  setting  forth in  reasonable  detail the terms and
     conditions of the Offer.

          (b) The Offer Notice shall be deemed to be an offer to NNN to purchase
     the same Intellectual Property Rights proposed to be purchased in the Offer
     on the same terms and conditions as the Offer, and NNN shall have the right
     for  thirty  days from the date it  receives  the Offer  Notice to elect to
     purchase the same Intellectual  Property Rights proposed to be purchased in
     the Offer by delivering to GNI, within such period,  a notice accepting the
     Offer Notice (the "Notice of Acceptance").

          (c) In the event that any Notice of  Acceptance  is timely  delivered,
     GNI and NNN shall proceed to consummate the  transaction in accordance with
     the terms of the Offer and this Agreement.

          (d) The closing of any purchase of such  Intellectual  Property Rights
     shall take place not more than  thirty days after the date of the Notice of
     Acceptance  or on other date as may be  mutually  agreed to between GNI and
     NNN.

                                       5
<PAGE>

          (e) In the event that a Notice of Acceptance is not timely  delivered,
     then GNI may  proceed  to sell  such  Intellectual  Property  Rights to the
     offeror  pursuant to the terms of the Offer.  In the event that the sale is
     not  consummated  within sixty days after the last day on which a Notice of
     Acceptance could have been delivered, then the provisions of this Section 9
     shall again apply to such Intellectual Property Rights.

     For  purposes of this  Section 9,  Intellectual  Property  Rights  shall be
     defined as all inventions,  trademarks,  patents, trade names,  copyrights,
     software,  licenses, designs,  technology,  trade secrets, test procedures,
     processes, route lists, computer programs,  computer discs, computer tapes,
     and other confidential information, and similar intangible property rights,
     that are  patentable  or  copyrightable  (or  otherwise  subject to legally
     enforceable  restrictions or protections  against  unauthorized third party
     usage), and any and all applications for such registrations or renewals and
     reissuance of, any of the foregoing.

10. Term:

     This  Agreement  will cover the period  commencing  on March 27, 2001,  and
     ending on March 26, 2002,  and may be renewed on mutual consent of both NNN
     and GNI. Either party may cancel this agreement with 60 days written notice
     to the other party.

11. Termination:

     Upon a material  breach of this Agreement that remains uncured for a period
     of ten  days  after  written  notice  by  the  non-breaching  party  to the
     breaching party of such breach,  the non-breaching  party may terminate the
     Agreement by providing the breaching  party written notice of its intent to
     treat the Agreement as  terminated.  Upon  termination,  the  non-breaching
     party may  exercise any other legal  rights it may  possess.  Further,  the
     failure of the  non-breaching  party to exercise its right to terminate may
     not be construed as a waiver of any legal rights or remedies to which it is
     entitled.

12. Entire Agreement:

     This agreement states the entire agreement and understanding of the parties
     concerning the subject matter of this Agreement,  and cannot be modified or
     amended except in writing signed by the parties.

13.      Notice:

14. Force Majeure:

     Neither party shall be deemed in breach or default of this Agreement or any
     provision  hereunder  to the  extent  that  any  delay  or  failure  in the
     performance of its obligations  results from an act of God or public enemy,
     civil unrest,  fire,  flood,  earthquake or unusually severe weather beyond
     its reasonable control and without its fault or negligence.

15. Separability:

     If any  provision  in  this  Agreement  is held  by a  court  of  competent
     jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions
     nevertheless  will  continue  in  full  force  without  being  impaired  or
     invalidated in any way.

16. Arbitration:

          (a) General.  Any  controversy  or claim arising out of or relating to
     this Agreement  shall be finally  resolved by  arbitration  pursuant to the
     Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration  Association.  Any
     such  arbitration  shall take  place in New York,  New York,  before  three
     arbitrators, one of which shall be appointed by NNN and one by GNI, and the
     third by the arbitrators so appointed;  provided, however, that the parties
     may by mutual agreement designate a single arbitrator.  The parties further
     agree that (i) the arbitrators  shall be empowered,  and the parties hereby
     request the arbitrators to, include  arbitration costs and attorney fees in
     the award to the prevailing party in such proceedings and (ii) the award in
     such proceedings shall be final and binding on the parties. The arbitrators
     shall apply the law of the State of New York, exclusive of conflict of laws
     principles,  to any  dispute.  Judgment  on the  arbitrators'  award may be
     entered in any court  having the  requisite  jurisdiction.  Nothing in this
     Agreement  shall require the  arbitration  of disputes  between the parties
     that arise from actions, suits or proceedings instituted by third parties.

                                       7
<PAGE>

          (b) Consent to Jurisdiction; Service of Process. Each party submits to
     the jurisdiction  and venue of the arbitration  described in Section 16 and
     to the  jurisdiction  and venue of the federal and state courts  sitting in
     New York, New York, for the enforcement of any judgment on the arbitrators'
     award,   and  waives  any  objection  it  may  have  with  respect  to  the
     jurisdiction of such  arbitrations or courts or the  inconvenience  of such
     forums or venues.  Service of any demands  for, or any notice with  respect
     to,  arbitration  hereunder  or any  service  of  process  may be  made  by
     registered or certified  mail or by personal  delivery,  in any case return
     receipt  requested.  Nothing  herein shall be deemed to affect any right to
     serve any such  demand,  notice or  process in any other  manner  permitted
     under applicable law.

17. Confidentiality:

     Any  materials  delivered  by one  party  to the  other  pursuant  to  this
     Agreement  that  the   delivering   party   reasonably   determines  to  be
     confidential  shall be  reduced  to writing  and  marked  conspicuously  as
     "Confidential"  with a cover page  containing  a brief  description  of the
     contents  to enable  the  receiving  party to decide  whether  it wishes to
     accept the delivery.

          (a) As to any such  information,  for a period of five years,  (i) all
     parties  agree  that such  information  may  constitute  trade  secret  and
     proprietary  and  confidential  information;  (ii) each party will keep the
     other party's information  confidential and not disclose it to anyone other
     than its employees and agents who need to know it in order to perform their
     respective obligations under this Agreement; (iii) each party will only use
     such information to perform its obligations under this Agreement; (iv) each
     party will return the  information  and any copies,  abstracts or summaries
     back  to the  other  party  upon  the  termination  or  expiration  of this
     Agreement, or earlier if the other party asks for them; and (iv) each party
     will  take  steps  to  maintain  the  confidentiality  of  the  information
     comparable  to those the party  takes with  regard to its own  confidential
     information.

          (b) A party will not be required to keep such information confidential
     if (i) it is or becomes  publicly  available other than as a result of such
     party's  conduct;  (ii) it  becomes  available  to such party from a source
     other than the would-be  disclosing party, and that source was not bound by
     a confidentiality  agreement with the would-be disclosing party; (iii) such
     party can show that it already knew the  information  before the disclosing
     party  disclosed  it;  or (iv)  such  party is  required  to  disclose  the
     information  by law,  legal process or court order,  and in that case,  the
     other party will notify the other promptly to permit the party a reasonable
     opportunity to seek to limit the disclosure.  NNN acknowledges that GNI may
     be required to disclose the terms of this Agreement in its filings with the
     Securities and Exchange Commission,  and that this Agreement may have to be
     filed publicly with such filings.

18. Applicable Law:

     The terms of this  Agreement  shall be governed by the  applicable  Federal
     laws of the United  States and by the laws of the State of New York without
     giving effect to any conflicts of law principles.
