                            INTERACTIVE NETWORK, INC.
                         10% CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

$_______________                                           LOS ALTOS, CALIFORNIA
                                                          ________________, 2001


         Interactive Network, Inc., a California corporation (the "Company"),
for value received, hereby promises to pay to ______________ or its registered
assigns (the "Holder") the principal sum of __________________________ and
___/100 Dollars ($_________) on ___________, 2002. The Company also promises to
pay interest (computed on the basis of a 360-day year) from the date hereof on
the unpaid balance of such principal amount from time to time outstanding at the
rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. Subject to the terms of Section 7, such
interest shall be due and payable on the earlier of the date this Note matures
or upon conversion of this Note, as described below. At the option of the
Company, interest may be paid by the Company either in cash or in newly-issued,
fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock ("Common Stock") of the
Company, which shares shall have the same value as the dollar amount of interest
due. For this purpose, the value of the shares of Common Stock shall be equal to
the "Market Value" as that term is defined in the "Bridge Warrants" (as the term
"Bridge Warrants" is defined below). The Company shall give to the Holder at
least five (5) business days' notice of its intent to pay the principal amount
of this Note, in whole or in part. This Note is one of a series of promissory
notes issued by the Company in its offering of units beginning in June 2001,
with each unit consisting of a convertible promissory note in the form of this
Note in the original principal amount of $10,000.00 and a warrant (collectively,
the "Bridge Warrants") to purchase 20,000 shares of Common Stock.

1. CONVERSION. The Holder of this Note has the right, at its option, at any time
prior to the payment of the principal amount of this Note, in whole or in part,
to convert all or part of the outstanding principal amount of this Note into
fully-paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company ("Common
Stock") at the rate of one share of Common Stock for $0.50 of outstanding
principal hereof, subject to adjustment as set forth herein (the "Conversion
Price"). In order to exercise this optional conversion privilege, the Holder of
this Note shall surrender this Note to the Company during normal business hours
at the Company's principal executive office, accompanied by written notice in
form satisfactory to the Company that the Holder elects to convert the principal
amount of this Note or a portion hereof specified in such notice. Such notice
shall also state the name of the Holder (with the address) in which the
certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock issuable on such
conversion shall be issued.

2. SURRENDER OF NOTE AND DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES. When surrendered for
conversion, this Note shall, unless the shares issuable on conversion are to be
issued in the same name as the name in which this Note is then registered, be
duly endorsed by, or accompanied by instruments of transfer duly executed by,
the Holder or his or its duly authorized attorney. As promptly as practicable
after the surrender of this Note for conversion in accordance with Section 1
above, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered at its principal
executive office to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the number of
shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note, or portion
thereof, in accordance with the provisions hereof. Such conversion shall be
deemed to have been made at the time this Note shall have been surrendered for
conversion and the notice specified above shall have been received by the
Company at its principal executive office (the "Conversion Date"), and the
Holder in whose name any certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock
shall be issuable upon such conversion shall be deemed to have become on the
Conversion Date the holder of record of the shares represented thereby. If less
than the entire outstanding principal amount of this Note is being converted,
the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder a new Note for the unconverted
principal balance, which Note and shall be of like tenor as to all terms as the
Note surrendered.

3. ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE.

         (a) In case the Company shall:

                  (i) declare a stock dividend on its Common Stock,

                  (ii) subdivide outstanding shares of Common Stock into a large
                  number of shares of Common Stock by reclassification, stock
                  split, or otherwise, or

                  (iii) combine outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
                  smaller number of shares of Common Stock by reclassification
                  or otherwise,

         the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this
         Note immediately prior to any such event shall be adjusted
         proportionately so that thereafter the Holder shall be entitled to
         receive upon conversion of this Note the number of shares of Common
         Stock which such Holder would have owned after the happening of any of
         the events described above had the Note been converted immediately
         prior to the happening of such event, provided that the Conversion
         Price shall in no event be reduced to less than the par value of the
         shares issuable upon conversion. An adjustment made pursuant to this
         Section shall become effective immediately after the record date in the
         case of a dividend and shall become effective immediately after the
         effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination.

         (b) If, prior to maturity of this Note, the Company shall at any time
         consolidate or merge with another corporation or entity (other than a
         merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving
         corporation), the Holder will thereafter be entitled to receive, upon
         the conversion hereof, the securities or property to which a holder of
         the number of shares of Common Stock then deliverable upon the
         conversion hereof would have been entitled to receive upon such
         consolidation or merger, and the Company shall take steps in connection
         with such consolidation or merger as may be necessary to ensure that
         the provisions hereof shall thereafter be applicable to any securities
         or property thereafter deliverable upon the conversion of this Note.

4. NOTICE. If the Company proposes to take any action referred to in Section
3(a) or Section 3(b) above, or to effect the liquidation, dissolution, or
winding up of the Company, then the Company shall cause notice thereof to be
mailed to the registered Holder of this Note at least fifteen (15) days prior to
the date on which the transfer books of the Company shall close or a record be
taken for such stock dividend or the date when such reclassification,
liquidation, dissolution or winding up shall be effective, as the case may be.

5. STATEMENT OF ADJUSTMENT. Whenever the Conversion Price shall be adjusted as
provided in Section 3(a) above, the Company shall forthwith file and deliver by
mail, first class, postage prepaid, to the Holder a statement, signed by the
Chairman of the Board, the President, any Vice President, or Secretary of the
Company, showing in reasonable detail and certifying as to the facts requiring
such adjustment and the Conversion Price that will be effective after such
adjustment. Where appropriate, such notice may be given in advance and may be
included as part of a notice required to be mailed under the provision of
Section 4 hereof.

6. FRACTIONAL SHARES. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issuable
upon conversion of this Note, but a payment in cash will be made in respect of
any fraction of a share which would otherwise be issuable upon the surrender of
this Note, or portion hereof, for conversion.

7. ACCRUED INTEREST. Upon the payment or conversion of this Note, the Company
shall be required to pay in cash any accrued but unpaid interest on the amount
so converted up to the Conversion Date or date of payment.

8. PREPAYMENT OF PRINCIPAL. The principal indebtedness represented by this Note
may be prepaid in whole or in part without the prior written consent of the
Holder of this Note.

9. DEFAULT. The entire unpaid principal of this Note and the interest then
accrued on this Note shall become and be immediately due and payable upon
written demand of the Company by the Holder of this Note, without any other
notice or demand of any kind or any presentment or protest, if any one of the
following events shall occur and be continuing at the time of such demand,
whether voluntarily or involuntarily, or, without limitation, occurring or
brought about by operation of law or pursuant to or in compliance with any
judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any
governmental body:

         (a) If the Company (i) makes a composition or an assignment for the
         benefit of creditors, (ii) applies for, consents to, or acquiesces in,
         a petition seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver or
         liquidator, in bankruptcy or otherwise, of itself or of all or a
         substantial portion of its assets, or (iii) admits in writing its
         inability to pay its debts generally as they become due; or

         (b) If an order for relief shall have been entered by a bankruptcy
         court or if a decree, order or judgment shall have been entered
         adjudging the Company insolvent, or appointing a receiver, liquidator,
         custodian or trustee; or

         (c) If the Company fails to pay principal and interest under this Note
         when due, or otherwise breaches any of its obligations or
         representations in any material respect under this Note.

10. SENIORITY. In the event of any distribution of the assets of the Company

notice of presentment and all other notices and demands in connection with the

a waiver of the right to exercise the same right or any other right.

12. TRANSFER OR EXCHANGE. Whenever this Note shall be surrendered at the
principal executive office of the Company for transfer or exchange, accompanied
by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by the Holder hereof (or its
duly authorized attorney in writing), the Company shall execute and deliver in
exchange for this Note a new Note or Notes, as may be requested by such Holder,
in the same aggregate unpaid principal amount and payable on the same date as
the principal amount of the Note or Notes so surrendered; and each such new Note
shall be in such principal amount and registered in such name or names as such
Holder may designate in writing.

13. LOSS OR DESTRUCTION OF NOTE. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Note and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and upon reimbursement

and cancellation of this Note (in case of mutilation), the Company will make and
deliver in lieu of this Note a new Note of like tenor and unpaid principal
amount.

14. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Note, and the obligations and rights of the
