          home or front page of the ICP Web Site. In addition, ICP may create

          Workshop site currently located at http://msdn.microsoft:com/workshop/
          imedia/ windowsmedia/CrContent/asx.asp#thelook) which banner notice
          links to such broadband section of the ICP Web Site whenever Windows
          Media Player plays Content served by Windows Media Technologies. In
          the event ICP does not create and deploy such a banner notice with a
          link to its ICP Web Site broadband section, ICP agrees that Microsoft
          may create and deploy a default banner notice that promotes the
          Broadband Jumpstart Program and links to the WindowsMedia.com Site

          reaching the Windows Media Format versions of all ICP Broadband
          Streaming Media from the home or front page of the broadband section
          of the ICP Web Site at least as easily (e.g., with respect to the
          number of "clicks" required to reach Windows Media Format versions of
          ICP Broadband Streaming Media)'as end users can reach other formats of
          ICP Broadband Streaming Media (if any) from such home or front page of
          the ICP Web Site broadband section.

     (e)  SPONSORSHIP. Beginning on the Effective Date and continuing
          thereafter throughout the Term, ICP shall include on all ICP Web Site
          pages containing or providing access to the ICP Broadband Streaming
          Media a prominent (i) "Get Windows Media Player", sponsorship notice

               contrary herein, ICP may include ICP Web Site-wide general
               rotation banner advertisements of other Streaming and

               to other Streaming and Downloadable Media technology vendors
               banner ads targeted specifically at such pages to ICP Broadband
               Streaming Media. The Windows Media Sponsorship Notices at all
               times shall be used in accordance with Microsoft's logo
               guidelines in Exhibit B and applicable Broadband Logo guidelines,
               including any updates thereto provided in writing by Microsoft to
               ICP.

          (ii) On all pages of the ICP Web Site in which ICP includes any
               sponsorship notices of other Streaming and Downloadable Media
               technology vendors, the Windows Media Sponsorship Notices shall

          notices for purposes of this Agreement, including without limitation
          ICP's responsibilities under this Section 3.2(e) and 3.5, upon
          Microsoft's reasonable advance written notice to ICP.

     (f)  ADDITIONAL PROMOTIONS. Microsoft's prior written approval will be
          required with respect to any additional promotions of Windows Media
          Technologies by ICP as part of the ICP Web Site or otherwise.

     press release as soon as possible after the Effective Date. In such press
     release, ICP shall endorse Windows Media Technologies and Windows Media
     Formats as a leading platform and set of formats for the ICP Broadband
     Streaming Media. Further, subject to the limitations set forth in the next
     sentence hereof, ICP agrees that (a) it will not release or approve any
     press releases using its name or descriptions of the ICP Broadband
     Streaming Media, other than in conjunction with promotions of Windows Media

     announcement contemplated by the previous sentence, nor for two (2) months
     following such initial announcement, and (b) at all times during the Term,
     ICP shall not itself issue nor approve from third parties press releases

     (other than the month in which the Effective Date falls), ICP shall provide
     a report to Microsoft setting forth the following. information concerning

     (e)  Total number of downloadable clips available.

     ICP shall provide all reports hereunder to Microsoft via Microsoft's Web
     reporting system located at HTTP://WINDOWSMEDIA.MICROSOFT.COM/REPORT, or
     any successor thereto. In the event that ICP has failed to provide a report
     as described in this Section on or before the twenty-fifth (25th) day of
     the relevant calendar month, then Microsoft will be entitled to suspend its
     performance under this Agreement until such report has been received. All
     information provided pursuant to this Section will be deemed to be
     Confidential Information of ICP.

3.5  BROADBAND LOGO USAGE. ICP desires to use a forthcoming Microsoft logo in
     connection with the Broadband Streaming Media Initiative ("Broadband Logo")

     requirements. Microsoft agrees to provide ICP with reasonable advance
     written notice and the ability to approve, with such approval not to be
     unreasonably withheld or delayed, a proposed Broadband Logo (which will
     comply with the pixel size requirements set forth in Section 3.2(e)(iii))
     for use in connection with this Agreement. In the event ICP does not
     approve a proposed Broadband Logo, including any revised proposed Broadband
     Logo that Microsoft may submit, within thirty (30) days after Microsoft
     initially submits a Broadband Logo for ICP's review, then Microsoft will be
     entitled, upon written notice to ICP, to terminate this Agreement
     (including without limitation Microsoft's obligations under Sections 2.1
     and 2.2). Further, in the event that ICP fails to comply with Microsoft's
     then-current logo requirements for a mutually-agreed Broadband Logo at any
     time during the Term, then Microsoft will be entitled, after providing ICP
     with notice of breach and an opportunity to cure such breach within thirty
     (30) days, to suspend its performance under this Agreement and terminate
     this Agreement (including without limitation Microsoft's obligations under
     Sections 2.1 and 2.2) upon further written notice to ICP.

3.6  RESERVATION OF RIGHTS. Except as expressly licensed to Microsoft under this
     Agreement, ICP retains all right, title and interest in and to the ICP Web
     Site, ICP Content and ICP Broadband Streaming Media.

4.   COORDINATION WITH MICROSOFT CONCERNING CONTENT DELIVERY NETWORKS

As of the Effective Date, two Content Delivery Networks (Intervu and iBEAM) have
entered into agreements with Microsoft under which they are available to provide
services to ICP. In the event ICP desires to work with a different Content
Delivery Network as part of the program, ICP may make such a proposal to
Microsoft and Microsoft agrees to consider the request in good faith, but ICP
acknowledges that Microsoft may in its sole discretion determine whether or not
it will enter into new Broadband arrangements, and on what terms, with any
Content Delivery Network and that Microsoft shall have no obligation to accept
the proposal of ICP concerning the same.

5.   NON-EXCLUSIVE

Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to restrict either party's ability to
license, develop, sub-license, manufacture, deploy, support, promote, or
distribute software, Content, Streaming and Downloadable Media, or any other
technology, whether or not similar to Windows Media Technologies, nor to
preclude ICP from creating and supporting mirrored versions of the ICP Web Site
that are not subject to this Agreement.

6.   CONFIDENTIALITY

6.1  Each party shall protect the other's Confidential Information from
     unauthorized dissemination and use with the same degree of care that such
     party uses to protect its own like information and in no event using less
     than a reasonable degree of care. Neither party will use the other's
     Confidential Information for purposes other than those necessary to
     directly further the purposes of this Agreement. Neither party will
     disclose to third parties the other's Confidential Information without the
     prior written consent of the other party. Except as expressly provided in
     this Agreement, no ownership or license rights are granted in any
     Confidential Information. The other provisions of this Agreement
     notwithstanding, either party will be permitted to disclose the
     Confidential Information to their outside legal and financial advisors; and
     to the extent required by applicable law, provided however that before
     making any such required filing or disclosure, the disclosing party shall
     first give written notice of the intended disclosure to the other party,
     within a reasonable time from the time disclosure is requested prior to the
     time when disclosure is to be made, and the disclosing party will exercise
     best efforts, in cooperation with and at the expense of the other party,
     consistent with reasonable time constraints, to obtain confidential
     treatment for all non-public and sensitive provisions of this Agreement,
     including without limitation dollar amounts and other numerical
     information.

6.2  The parties' obligations of confidentiality under this Agreement shall not
     be construed to limit either party's right to independently develop or
     acquire products without use of the other party's Confidential Information.
     Further, either party shall be free to use for any purpose the residuals
     resulting from access to or work with such Confidential Information,
     provided that such party shall maintain the confidentiality of the
     Confidential Information as provided herein. The term "residuals" means
     information in non-tangible form, which may be retained by persons who have
     had rightful and good faith access to the Confidential Information,
     including ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques contained therein.
     Neither party shall have any obligation to limit or restrict the assignment
     of such persons or to pay royalties for any work resulting from the use of
     residuals. However, the foregoing shall not be deemed to grant to either
     party a license under the other party's copyrights or patents.

7.   WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS

7.1  WARRANTIES. Each party warrants and covenants that it has the full power
     and authority to enter into and perform according to the terms of this

     WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND
     NONINFRINGEMENT, WITH RESPECT TO ANY SOFTWARE, TECHNOLOGY, SERVICES,
     CON-TENT, OR INFORMATION PROVIDED HEREUNDER.

8.   INDEMNITY

8.1  INDEMNITY. ICP shall, at its expense and Microsoft's request, defend any
     claim or action brought by a third party against Microsoft, or Microsoft's
     Affiliates, directors, or officers, to the extent it is based upon a claim
     that (i) the ICP Web Site and/or ICP Broadband Streaming Media infringes or
     violates any copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, right of
     publicity, or other intellectual property, proprietary or contractual right
     of a third party; (ii) the ICP Web Site and/or ICP Broadband Streaming
     Media contain defamatory or libelous material or material which discloses
     private or personal matters concerning any person, without such person's
     consent; (iii) the ICP permits to appear or be uploaded any messages, data,
     images or programs which are illegal, contain nudity or sexually explicit
     content or are, by law, obscene, profane or pornographic; or (iv) the ICP
     permits to appear or be uploaded to the ICP Web Site any messages, data,
     images or programs that would knowingly or intentionally (which includes
     imputed intent) violate the property rights of others, including
     unauthorized copyrighted text, images or programs, trade secrets or other
     confidential proprietary information, or trademarks or service marks used
     in an infringing fashion (all of the foregoing claims or actions being
     referred to hereinafter as `ICP Claims"), and ICP will indemnify and hold
     Microsoft harmless from and against any costs, damages and fees reasonably
     incurred by Microsoft including but not limited to fees of outside
     attorneys and other professionals, that are attributable to such ICP
     Claims. Microsoft shall: (a) provide ICP reasonably prompt notice in
     writing of any such ICP Claims and permit ICP, through counsel chosen by
     ICP, to answer and defend such ICP Claims; and (b) provide the entity
     defending such claim information, assistance and authority, at such
     entity's expense, to help defend such ICP Claims. ICP will not be
     responsible for any settlement made by Microsoft without lCP's written
     permission, which permission will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
     Reasonable withholding of permission may be based upon, among other
     factors, editorial and business concerns. ICP will consult with Microsoft
     on the choice of any counsel under this Section 8.

8.2  SETTLEMENT BY ICP. Unless ICP obtains for Microsoft a complete release of
     all ICP Claims thereunder, ICP may not settle any ICP Claim under this
     Section 8 on Microsoft's behalf without first obtaining Microsoft's written
     permission, which permission will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
     Reasonable withholding of permission may be based upon, among other
     factors, the ability for Microsoft to ship any product. In the event ICP
     and Microsoft agree to settle an ICP Claim, ICP agrees not to disclose
     terms of the settlement
<PAGE>
                                      -11-


     without first obtaining Microsoft's written permission, which will not be
     unreasonably withheld or delayed.

          except to the extent specified with respect to Microsoft's

11.5 ASSIGNMENT. This Agreement and any rights or obligations hereunder may not
     be assigned by ICP without Microsoft's prior written approval. For purposes
     of the foregoing, an assignment shall be deemed to include, without
     limitation, any transfer of ownership, whether by a sale of assets, a sale
     of stock or other controlling interests, merger, reorganization, or other
     change of control of ICP. Any attempted assignment by ICP without such

     provision of the Agreement will be enforced to the maximum extent
     permissible so as to effect the intent of the parties, and the remainder of
     this Agreement will continue in full force and effect. Failure by either
     party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a
     waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision. This Agreement
     has been negotiated by the parties and their respective counsel and will be
     interpreted fairly in accordance with its terms and without any strict
     construction in favor of or against either party.

GET WINDOWS MEDIATM PLAYER LOGO USAGE GUIDELINES

     By downloading the Logo to your Web site, you agree to be bound by these
     Policies.
2.   You may only display the Logo on your Web site, and not in any other

     Windows Media Player at http://www.microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/
     download/default.asp.
3.   The Logo GIF image includes the words "Get Windows Media Player" describing
     the significance of the Logo on your site (that the Logo is a link to the
     download page for the Microsoft Windows Media Player, not an endorsement of
     your site). You may not remove or alter any element of the Logo.
4.   The Logo may be displayed only on Web pages that make accurate references
     to Microsoft or its products or services or as otherwise authorized by
     Microsoft. Your Web page title and other trademarks and logos must appear

     manner that implies sponsorship, endorsement, or license by Microsoft
     except as expressly authorized by Microsoft.
5.   The Logo must appear by itself, with a minimum spacing (30 pixels) between
     each side of the Logo and other distinctive graphic or textual elements on
     your page. The Logo may not be displayed as a feature or design element of
     any other logo.
6.   You may not alter the Logo in any manner, including size, proportions,
     colors, elements, or animate, morph, or otherwise distort its perspective
     or appearance, except in the event expressly authorized by Microsoft.
7.   You may not display the Logo on any site that infringes any Microsoft
     intellectual property or other rights, or violates any state, federal, or
     international law.
8.   These Policies do not grant a license or any other right to Microsoft's
     logos or trademarks. Microsoft reserves the right at its sole discretion to
     terminate or modify permission to display the Logo at any time. Microsoft

     these Policies, infringes any Microsoft intellectual property or other
     right, or violates other applicable law.
