Introduction
------------

On September 28, 1999, Data Broadcasting Corporation ("DBC" or the "Company"),
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") its
Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year June 30, 1999 (the "1999 Form
10-K").  The information called for by items 10, 11, 12 and 13 of Part III of
Form 10-K was not included in the body of the 1999 Form 10-K as filed, but was
incorporated by reference to the Company's Proxy Statement which was expected
to be filed with the Commission within the 120-day period.  Because the
Company is not in fact filing its Proxy Statement within such 120 day period,
this Form 10-K/A amends the 1999 Form 10-K by deleting therefrom the caption
and first paragraph and substituting therefore the following replacements for
Items 10, 11, 12 and 13.

      The value of unexercised options at fiscal year-end is the difference
between the option exercise price and the average of the high ask and low bid
price for the Company's common stock as reported by the Nasdaq Stock Market's
National Market ("Nasdaq") for June 30, 1999, which was $10 1/8.  These
amounts have not been, and may never be, realized.  Actual amounts realized
will depend on the value of the Company's common stock if and when options
become exercisable and are exercised.

Compensation of Directors

      Effective, February 1, 1999, the annual fee for directors was raised to
$12,000, with the chairmen of the audit and compensation committees receiving
a $3,000 premium.  During fiscal year 1999, all non-employee directors of the
Company received fees of $7,500 and reimbursement for travel expenses for
service to the Board of Directors.  The Chairmen of the Audit and Compensation
committees received an additional $1,250 during fiscal year 1999.  No employee
director received compensation for service to the Board.

      Each non-employee director of the Company holding such position on the
third business day after the Company publicly announces its summary fiscal
year-end statement of sales and earnings shall, at the discretion of the Stock
Option Committee, receive an option to acquire 10,000 shares of common stock
with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the stock on such
date.  On September 13, 1999, each non-employee director was granted options
for 10,000 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $8.625, which become
exercisable on the date of grant.  Each option terminates, to the extent not
exercised prior thereto, upon the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the
grant or (ii) the first anniversary of the cessation of the optionee's service
as a director of the Company.

      Effective as of September 15, 1996, the Company entered into a
consulting agreement with Mr. Herbert S. Schlosser, a director of the Company.
The Consulting Agreement provides for:  (i) a three-year term; (ii) payment
for consulting services of $250,000 payable in installments of approximately
$21,000 per quarter; and (iii) the grant of options to purchase 25,000 shares
of Company common stock.  Aggregate consulting fee payments made by the
Company during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1999 was $83,333.

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change of Control
Arrangements

      The Company entered in employment agreements with Messrs. Hirschfield
and Tessler effective as of January 1, 1997 and continuing until December 31,
2000 unless extended by either the executive or the Company for successive
one-year terms.  The agreement provides for a base salary of $325,000 with
scheduled increases in future years and a performance based bonus of up to
100% of the base salary as determined by the Compensation Committee upon an
evaluation of the performance of the executive and the Company during the
previous fiscal year.  In the event of certain involuntary terminations and in
the event of a change of control wherein the executive exercises his right to
terminate the agreement, he shall receive a lump sum payment equal to 150% of
the base salary for the greater of two years or the remainder of the
employment term.  In addition, in the event of a change of control, the
executive will receive an amount equal to the price per share paid to the
Company shareholders less the pre-announcement share price multiplied by
125,000.  Pursuant to the agreement each of the executives was also granted
options to purchase 125,000 shares of Company stock.

      The Company entered into an employment agreement with Mark F. Imperiale,
President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, effective as
of January 1, 1997.  The agreement provides for a four-year term, a base
salary of $275,000 with scheduled increases in future years, and a
performance-based bonus of up to 100% of the base salary as determined by the
Compensation Committee upon an evaluation of the performance of the executive
and the Company during the previous fiscal year.  In the event of certain
involuntary terminations and in the event of a change of control wherein Mr.
Imperiale exercises his right to terminate the agreement, he shall receive a
lump sum payment equal to 150% of the base salary for the greater of two years
or the remainder of the employment term.  In addition, in the event of a
change of control, he will receive an amount equal to the price per share paid
to the Company shareholders less the pre-announcement price multiplied by
100,000.  Pursuant to the agreement Mr. Imperiale was also granted options to
acquire 100,000 shares of Company stock.

      The Company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Kaplan,
President of CMS, effective April 29, 1994.  The agreement provided for a
three-year term of employment and base salaries in each of the years.  The
agreement was extended in April of 1997 for two years from its scheduled
termination, but Mr. Kaplan is only required to be available 80% of his time
and was granted options to purchase 100,000 shares of Company common stock.
His salary remained at $475,000 for the extension years.  Mr. Kaplan continues
to work under the terms of the extension and his compensation has remained
constant.  The agreement also provides for a subsequent three-year consultancy
period during which Mr. Kaplan will be paid $333,333 a year for part-time
consulting services.  Mr. Kaplan is prohibited from competing with the Company
during the entire term of the agreement.  Mr. Kaplan's right to receive the
compensation specified in the latter three-year period is subject only to his
continuing compliance with the non-compete restrictions.

      On October 7, 1999, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors
approved new employment agreements for Messrs. Hirschfield, Tessler and
Imperiale.  Such agreements will be filed as exhibits to the Company's Form
10-Q for the period ended September 30, 1999.

      The Company currently has no other compensation plan or arrangement with
respect to any of the executive officers named on the Summary Compensation
Table, which results or will result from the resignation, retirement, or other
termination of such individual's employment with the Company or from a change
in control of the Company or a change in the individual's responsibilities
following a change in control.  However, as noted under the Stock Option Grant
Table above, the Stock Option Committee of the Board may accelerate the
exercisability of employee stock options granted under the Option Plan upon a
change in control of the Company.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

      During the past fiscal year, Messrs. Hirschfield and Tessler served on
the Stock Option Committee.

      Mr. Markin, Chairman of the Company's Compensation Committee, was,
during the fiscal year, President of Checker Holdings, an entity which does
not have a compensation committee.  Mr. Tessler, Co-Chief Executive Officer
of the Company, was a member and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Checker
Holdings.
