PART I

This report includes a number of forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and
our potential financial performance and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results and financial position to differ materially from what we say in this report. These
factors include, but are not limited to, our ability to generate significant revenues from our core business; our ability to achieve or maintain profitability; our reliance on automobile insurance;
our ability to expand our operations; our reliance on a limited number of insurance companies for our current revenues; and our success in developing and maintaining cost efficient online
relationships to attract consumers to our website. We more fully discuss these and other risk factors in "Item 7Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
OperationsFactors That May Affect Our Future Performance" and elsewhere in this report and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. InsWeb undertakes no
obligation to revise or update publicly any forward-looking statements for any reason.

Item 1. Business

The InsWeb Online Insurance Marketplace

InsWeb Corporation operates an online insurance marketplace that enables consumers to comparison shop online and obtain insurance company-sponsored quotes for a
variety of insurance products, including automobile, term life and homeowners. InsWeb's marketplace electronically matches consumers and insurance companies. InsWeb has combined extensive knowledge of
the insurance industry, technological expertise and close relationships with a significant number of insurance companies to develop an integrated online marketplace. InsWeb's marketplace enables
consumers to research insurance-related topics, search for, analyze and compare insurance products, apply for and receive insurance company-sponsored quotes for actual coverage and to purchase
automobile insurance coverage through InsWeb's insurance agency. Management believes that InsWeb provides insurance companies with pre-qualified consumers at attractive acquisition costs,
as well as the scalable, cost-efficient distribution capabilities of InsWeb's Internet-based model.

InsWeb
was originally incorporated in California in February 1995 and re-incorporated in Delaware in October 1996, and is headquartered outside Sacramento,
California. InsWeb's headquarters mailing address is 11290 Pyrites Way, Gold River CA., 95670, and the telephone number at that location is
(916) 853-3300. The InsWeb website iswww.InsWeb.com.All periodic and current reports that have been filed with, or furnished to,
the SEC are available on our website within 24 hours of the electronic filing.



The quote generation and purchase process involves the following steps:



Quotes
obtained through the online marketplace are free to consumers, while participating insurance companies pay a transaction fee to InsWeb. These fees are earned either from the
delivery of a lead to a participating insurance company, from a fee paid by an insurance company for each closed policy, or from a commission earned by InsWeb's insurance agency, InsWeb Insurance
Services, Inc.

---

Data Entry.To initiate a shopping session, a consumer completes an online form that requests
information such as the consumer's age, address and coverage requirements, a process that InsWeb estimates takes approximately 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the type of insurance sought and the
complexity of the consumer's profile. The quote form captures a comprehensive set of information designed to address each of the participating insurance companies' underwriting and rating criteria. To
assist consumers in evaluating and fulfilling their insurance needs, InsWeb provides consumers a variety of interactive website features and insurance-related information. In addition, InsWeb provides
online help and customer service throughout the data entry process. The consumer is required to complete only one form to obtain quotes for a particular type of insurance from those participating
companies offering that type of insurance in the consumer's state who have qualified that consumer. Throughout the data entry process, consumers are presented with the option of saving their data into
their personal insurance profile. Consumers who are returning to the online marketplace can simply enter their user name and password to retrieve information they entered during previous visits. This
information can be used to automatically complete portions of the quote form for other insurance products. Because the information insurance companies use to underwrite, rate and provide quotes to a
consumer is entered directly by the consumer, the insurance companies can reduce or eliminate the expense associated with collecting consumer data. Moreover, information entered directly by consumers
typically contains fewer errors than information provided orally to an agent or insurance company representative, who must then enter that information manually into the insurance company's system.

Underwriting.InsWeb's software uses criteria set by each participating insurance company to analyze
a consumer's data and determine whether it fits within the insurance company's targeted risk profile. InsWeb's system can provide rapid feedback to an insurance company regarding the impact that
particular criteria are having on the number of leads being directed to that company, and also permits individual criteria to be easily added or removed. Electronic underwriting eliminates the expense
of screening and quoting risks that an insurance company ultimately may not want to accept. Electronic underwriting also ensures that consumers are only presented with quotes from companies who are
interested in doing business with them.

Rating.InsWeb integrates each of its participating insurance companies' rating criteria into its
online marketplace through one of several rating solutions, depending on the insurance company's preference. These solutions include:



In
each case, the rating process is developed in conjunction with the participating insurance company.

Presentation of Quotes.After a consumer has completed the form for a particular product and has
requested quotes, the consumer is presented with a "quote pad." The quote pad contains the logos of insurance companies interested in providing quotes, along with prices for the insurance companies
offering instant quotes. The quote pad also informs the consumer which insurance companies will provide quotes on a delayed basis, either via e-mail, mail or telephone. The response method
varies among insurance products and companies. Currently, all term life and the majority of automobile quotes are provided through instant quotes. InsWeb is working with its participating insurance
companies to increase implementation of instant quoting capability.

2

---

Delivery of Leads.InsWeb earns revenues from participating insurance companies based on the delivery
of qualified leads. With certain insurance companies, InsWeb is paid a fee only when the consumer purchases an insurance policy, and with others, InsWeb is paid a transaction fee based on the delivery
of a lead, regardless of whether or not the consumer actually purchases a policy. Qualified leads are produced in two ways: for insurance companies providing instant online quotes, a qualified lead is
produced when a consumer clicks to request insurance coverage based on a specific quote; for insurance companies providing e-mail or other offline quotes, a qualified lead is produced when
a consumer clicks to request the quote itself. Once a lead is generated by the consumer's request for an application or offline quote, InsWeb transmits the lead either to InsWeb Insurance Services, or
to the selected insurance company or other entity by e-mail, file transfer or direct connection to the insurance company's information system. InsWeb provides each participating insurance
company with custom-formatted lead information based on the insurance companies individual requirements.

Purchase of Policy.After InsWeb generates and delivers a qualified lead, insurance companies, or
InsWeb Insurance Services, may respond directly to the interested consumer by e-mail, mail or telephone to close the purchase of the policy or direct the lead to an agent for
follow-up. The delivery of a qualified lead to the insurance company does not require further involvement by InsWeb, although InsWeb monitors insurance company responses and works with
companies and agents to ensure that they are responding to leads generated from the online insurance marketplace in a timely fashion. In addition, InsWeb performs closing services, through InsWeb
Insurance Services, as a traditional agency, for some participating insurance companies. These closing services include advising consumers about coverage options, confirming consumer information,
selling the policy and taking a premium deposit. In either case, the insurance company generally performs the ongoing servicing of the insurance policy, after it has been sold. As of
December 31, 2002, InsWeb Insurance Services is selling policies on behalf of ten auto insurance companies in nine states. In addition, for one insurance company in the InsWeb term life
marketplace, InsWeb Insurance Services contracts with a third-party organization to perform these closing services on its behalf.

Customer Care.InsWeb provides assistance to consumers throughout the data entry, quote-generation
and delivery process through embedded help icons, which link to explanations of the various steps in the process and through e-mail support. InsWeb's Customer Care Center provides
additional help to
consumers working through the process of shopping for insurance online through email and live telephone support.



Insurance companies participating in InsWeb's online insurance marketplace currently offer automobile, term life, homeowners, renters, condominium, home warranty
and motorcycle insurance. In addition, InsWeb has contractual relationships with third-party providers for critical illness and health insurance.

Automobile Insurance.Automobile insurance comprises the largest segment of the consumer insurance
market, and, to date, has accounted for most of the consumer traffic on InsWeb's online marketplace, and a substantial majority of its revenues. At December 31, 2002, InsWeb's online
marketplace offered quotes to qualified consumers in 47 states plus the District of Columbia, from 24 participating insurance companies.

At
December 31, 2002, the national average for actionable insurance quotes received by consumers participating in InsWeb's online marketplace was 2.5, of which 2.1 were instant
quotes.

Term Life Insurance.At December 31, 2002, the InsWeb online marketplace offered comparative
quotes for term life insurance from 11 companies in 48 states plus the District of Columbia.

3

---

Homeowners/Renters/Condominium Insurance.As of December 31, 2002, the InsWeb online
marketplace offered quotes for homeowners, renters and condominium insurance from at least one insurance company in 14 states.

Individual Health Insurance.Commencing in 1998, individual health insurance was offered in the form
of preferred provider organization plans, health maintenance organization plans and traditional indemnity plans. In April 2000, InsWeb entered into a two-year linking agreement with
eHealthInsurance.com under which InsWeb originated consumers had access to a co-branded version of eHealthInsurance's individual health, small group health, and Medicare supplement
insurance product offerings. In February 2001, InsWeb temporarily suspended its online health insurance quoting due to the decision by eHealthInsurance to unilaterally terminate the marketing
agreement. eHealthInsurance filed suit in U.S. District Court against InsWeb alleging InsWeb's failure to perform its obligations under the agreement. In March 2001, InsWeb filed a counterclaim
alleging that eHealthInsurance wrongfully terminated the agreement and pursued a course of conduct aimed at damaging InsWeb's business. The
lawsuits were settled on March 24, 2003 and all claims between the parties were dismissed. In addition, eHealthInsurance agreed to pay InsWeb $800,000 for services performed by InsWeb prior to
the termination of the agreement. See "Item 3Legal Proceedings". In June 2001, InsWeb entered into a two-year agreement with QuickQuote Financial, Inc. pursuant
to which QuickQuote Financial became the exclusive provider of online health insurance services to InsWeb consumers.

Other Products and Services.InsWeb's online marketplace also allows consumers to shop for home
warranty and motorcycle insurance and critical illness insurance in some states. At present, the InsWeb online marketplace does not offer multiple quotes with respect to these types of insurance,
which are offered by a single insurance company for each product in the states in which it is available. InsWeb's long-term strategy is to expand the range of insurance products and
services offered through its online insurance marketplace. From time to time, InsWeb licenses its insurance quoting functionality to insurance companies and financial institutions on a selected basis.

Non-U.S. Markets.In 1998, InsWeb entered into a joint venture agreement with SOFTBANK
Corp. to develop, implement and market an online insurance marketplace in Japan and the Republic of Korea. The joint venture is carried out exclusively through InsWeb Japan K.K., a Japanese
corporation, in which InsWeb owned a 25% interest until a reorganization in March 2001 under which a holding company, was created which controls InsWeb Japan K.K. and other companies in which
InsWeb did not have a financial interest. In this reorganization, InsWeb's shares in InsWeb Japan K.K. were exchanged for shares in the holding company, Finance All K.K. In conjunction with the
original joint venture agreement, InsWeb also entered into an agreement in August 1999 to provide consulting and hosting services to assist InsWeb Japan K.K. in developing its Internet
strategy. Although this agreement has not been terminated, InsWeb does not expect to provide future consulting and hosting services to InsWeb Japan K.K. At December 31, 2002, InsWeb's ownership
interest in Finance All K.K. was approximately 9%.



InsWeb believes that establishing long-term relationships with reputable insurance companies is essential to its ability to offer a desirable
insurance marketplace on its website. InsWeb's focus is to maintain and expand the product offerings available on the online marketplace by selling InsWeb's services to new companies and expanding
InsWeb's relationship with participating insurance companies.

Once
an insurance company decides to participate in InsWeb's online insurance marketplace, InsWeb's implementation team works with the insurance company to integrate its insurance
product information, which entails a process of specification development, education, planning and activation. Because of the complexity of interfacing with an insurance company's legacy computer
systems, the

4

---

implementation team conducts a thorough assessment of the insurance company's business processes, technical capabilities and desired interface to develop a comprehensive integration plan. Although
the
implementation process can be costly and time-consuming for both InsWeb and the insurance company, InsWeb believes that it represents a significant commitment by the insurance company, and
that the insurance company typically views this expenditure of time and resources as an investment in a long-term relationship with InsWeb. Once an insurance company's initial
implementation is complete, InsWeb works with the insurance company to expand its geographic coverage and add insurance products.

At
December 31, 2002, InsWeb had relationships with 37 insurance companies, including many large companies with established brand names that InsWeb believes are attractive to
consumers. These companies are:

To
date, InsWeb has been dependent on a limited number of insurance companies for a significant portion of its revenues. Revenues from the top three insurance companies that participate
in InsWeb's marketplace represented 38%, 32% and 34% of total revenues for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. See "Item 7Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."



To assist consumers in evaluating and fulfilling their insurance needs, InsWeb provides consumers with a variety of interactive website features and
insurance-related information, including:

Marketing and Sales

InsWeb's marketing program consists of a two-pronged effort, with substantial resources directed both at attracting increased consumer traffic to the
InsWeb website, and building and expanding relationships with participating insurance companies. InsWeb believes that increased traffic will encourage insurance companies to develop and expand their
relationship with InsWeb, and that enhancing the comparative shopping opportunities available through increased insurance company participation will drive further increases in consumer traffic.



InsWeb's consumer marketing program seeks to increase consumer traffic and brand awareness through the establishment of relationships with online companies as
well as through direct offline and online consumer marketing.

Online Relationships.InsWeb believes that relationships with high-profile online
companies can drive significant traffic to its site. InsWeb seeks out relationships with companies whose websites feature a high volume of traffic or a substantive focus that is related to the
purchase of insurance coverage, such as sites related to automobiles, homes or personal finances. Agreements with these online companies typically provide that InsWeb pay the online company a portion
of the resulting transaction fees and in some cases a fixed fee. Online companies integrate links into their websites connecting to InsWeb's marketplace. InsWeb provides functionality to further
integrate with online companies and, in some cases, provides co-branding functionality whereby the online company's logo is presented on the InsWeb marketplace to those consumers directed
to InsWeb's marketplace from a company's site. For some of InsWeb's more significant online relationships InsWeb has further integrated its functionality with these companies' sites by customizing the
look and feel of InsWeb's insurance-related content and marketplace to replicate the design characteristics of the online company's site. Additionally, some of these companies have developed
customized interfaces on their own site to link to the InsWeb marketplace. InsWeb's agreements with online companies typically have a 12-month term, with either party having a right to
terminate the agreement on 30 to 90 days' notice.

Traditional Consumer Marketing.As part of its branding effort, InsWeb developed a consumer marketing
campaign, which began in 1998 with radio advertising in selected metropolitan markets, and which was
expanded in 1999 to include national television and syndicated radio advertising. In the first half of 2000, InsWeb changed its marketing focus to emphasize more online marketing efforts and
discontinued its radio and television marketing campaigns. In the future, InsWeb may engage in limited traditional advertising, including radio and print advertising.

Online Direct-Response Advertising.InsWeb's online direct-response advertising is intended to create
a presence for InsWeb on a wide range of websites whose audiences closely match its target audience. InsWeb's key advertisements are delivered through content sponsorships, banners and keywords on
financial, news, real estate, classifieds, automobile, directory and general interest sites. InsWeb and some of its third-party marketing providers also conduct advertising campaigns promoting InsWeb
through emails and electronic newsletters. InsWeb's advertisements are targeted primarily at consumers who are actively seeking insurance.

Technology



Since its inception, InsWeb has invested significant resources to develop and deploy its proprietary technology platform that InsWeb believes constitutes a
significant competitive advantage.

InsWeb's
software architecture facilitates interoperability among software components to maximize responsiveness, flexibility and reliability. This architecture enables InsWeb to
efficiently develop and deploy new insurance company-specific modules for underwriting, rating and data delivery. It also simplifies the process of providing InsWeb's core marketplace functionality
for use on insurance company sites. In order to speed implementation for each participating insurance company, InsWeb has developed transmission software components which allow consumer data to be
custom-formatted for delivery to each insurance company based on the requirements of the insurance company's computer system. InsWeb has developed custom communication software to provide multiple
types of real-time telecommunication links to its participating insurance companies. These components provide a variety of solutions to the insurance companies to best meet their needs and
interface with their legacy systems. InsWeb has devoted significant time and resources to maximize the efficiency of integrating new insurance companies into its online marketplace and to create a
flexible, customizable Web interface. InsWeb's front-end user interface is accessible to consumers via standard Web browsers and is designed without unnecessary graphics that would
increase download time.

InsWeb's
server software operates on servers running the Microsoft Windows 2000 operating system. The software is designed for a high-volume transaction-processing
environment, with a focus on reliability, redundancy and around-the-clock availability. It is designed to enable the system to respond rapidly and to simultaneously underwrite
and rate a consumer's profile against all participating insurance companies' criteria. The software is also designed for scalability, enabling InsWeb to expand processing capacity through the addition
of more processors and servers as transaction volumes increase.

InsWeb
has also integrated and plans to further develop systems to facilitate incoming consumers though InsWeb's Customer Care Center and the processing of leads and sale of insurance
policies through its agency operations. InsWeb's agency technology systems use a combination of our own proprietary technologies and commercially available, licensed technologies. These technologies
include an array of proprietary advanced telephony and network tools to manage leads delivered from InsWeb's marketplace and email and telephone calls received in the customer service center. InsWeb's
proprietary automated customer management system has been developed to communicate and process data with the InsWeb marketplace, outside rating services, credit bureaus, third-party data providers,
and an online credit card processing company to facilitate the sale of insurance policies to consumers. Once a policy is sold, data is entered into an agency management system, where upload and
download interfaces between its agency management system and various insurance company back office systems have been developed to streamline the proper fulfillment and servicing of sold policies.



InsWeb employs third-party firewall technology to protect its corporate network from intrusion and uses proprietary designs to isolate confidential data on its
network so that only selected information is publicly available on its website. Consumer information is transmitted to InsWeb's site using Secure Socket Layer encryption technology, a widely used
technology for transmitting encoded data via a Web browser. InsWeb employs a number of other encryption methods for delivery of consumer information to insurance companies. InsWeb protects its system
management functions using security models integrated with the operating system. Additionally, some sensitive software applications incorporate proprietary authentication schemes.

7

---



InsWeb's hardware servers, storage systems, Internet connections, back-up strategies and network are designed to allow its online marketplace to
operate continuously. InsWeb's main Web servers are located at its headquarters facility in Gold River, California. InsWeb uses multiple service providers to access the Internet over multiple
dedicated communication lines. InsWeb uses a separate server to operate the software for each primary insurance product, as well as at least one redundant server for each core product. InsWeb uses a
number of internally-developed and third-party software products to monitor the performance and availability of its website and core products. InsWeb continuously monitors consumer traffic, response
times and capacity to ensure a high quality of service for consumers and insurance companies. InsWeb maintains a back-up facility in Rancho Cordova, California through a third-party
service provider to ensure the continuous operation of its online marketplace in case of a failure at its main facility.

Product Development

InsWeb devotes significant resources to improving the structure of its products and delivering additional tools that allow insurance companies to effectively
reach consumers. InsWeb generally follows a semi-quarterly release schedule for new versions of its online user interface, which may incorporate technology advances, new product features
and improvements in consumer interactivity. InsWeb also devotes resources to refining its online consumer tools and research materials, as well as developing new support products. InsWeb is also
researching new methods of designing more useful insurance-related material and presenting it to the consumer in a more meaningful context.

InsWeb's
technology expenses were approximately $10.3 million in 2002, $14.0 million in 2001, and $22.9 million in 2000. In addition, InsWeb capitalized costs of
$0.8 million in 2001 and $1.2 million in 2000 relating to the development and enhancement of its website.

Privacy Policy

InsWeb believes that the privacy of personally identifiable information of Internet users is becoming increasingly important as the use of the Internet for
electronic commerce continues to grow. InsWeb has adopted a privacy policy for information of users of its online marketplace. InsWeb does not disclose any personally identifiable information of a
user to InsWeb's participating insurance companies until the user specifically requests insurance coverage based on an instant online quote, or requests an offline quote. InsWeb does not sell or
otherwise make available to any other party any personally identifiable information concerning its users. However, InsWeb does compile user information in its databases. This aggregated statistical
information is analyzed internally by InsWeb for marketing purposes and to improve the content and site layout of its website. This information is made available in aggregate form only, without
individual identification of consumers, to InsWeb's participating insurance companies for their use in adjusting, refining and expanding their product offerings. Aggregate statistical information also
may be made available to online companies with which InsWeb has established a marketing relationship. InsWeb is a licensee of the TRUSTe Privacy Program and adheres to their standards regarding the
protection of the personally identifiable information of Internet users.

Competition

The online insurance distribution market is a new industry and, like the broader electronic commerce market, is rapidly evolving and is highly competitive. InsWeb
competes with other companies that provide quotes and sell insurance policies online, as well as with:



8

---



InsWeb
believes the principal bases for competition in the online insurance distribution market include:



Government Regulation

The insurance industry is subject to extensive regulation under state laws. Insurance laws and regulations cover all aspects of the insurance process, including
sales techniques, underwriting for eligibility, rates, compensation, claim payments and record keeping by licensed insurance companies and insurance agents. InsWeb performs functions for licensed
insurance companies and is, therefore, required to comply with a complex set of rules and regulations that often vary from state to state. If InsWeb fails to comply with these rules and regulations,
InsWeb, an insurance company doing business with InsWeb, our officers, or agents with whom we contract could be subject to various sanctions, including censure, fines, a
cease-and-desist order or other penalties. This risk, as well as changes in the regulatory climate or the enforcement or interpretation of existing law, could require changes
to InsWeb's business or otherwise harm InsWeb's business. Furthermore, because the application of online commerce to the insurance market is relatively new, the impact of current or future regulations
on InsWeb's business is difficult to anticipate.

A
company that does business as an insurance agent is generally required to be licensed in any state in which it conducts that business. Although InsWeb does not believe that the
operation of its online insurance marketplace constitutes doing business as an insurance agent under existing laws and regulations, InsWeb has received direct and indirect inquiries from insurance
regulatory authorities in several states suggesting that these activities may be considered to fall under their licensing jurisdiction. Should these or other regulatory authorities pursue inquiries
and ultimately determine that InsWeb's activities required licensure, InsWeb's business could be harmed.

In
order to provide the types of services that require a license, InsWeb established a wholly-owned subsidiary, InsWeb Insurance Services, Inc., to operate as a licensed insurance
agent. This subsidiary currently maintains property and casualty licenses in 45 jurisdictions (including the District of Columbia) and life and health licenses in 44 jurisdictions (including the
District of Columbia). In the states where our subsidiary does not maintain a license, InsWeb is licensed through its officers or

9

---

through resident agents that contract with InsWeb. InsWeb's policy is to post prominently on its website the jurisdictions in which the subsidiary is licensed. Links to agents that contract with
InsWeb afford consumers access to licensed agencies. In addition, employees of InsWeb who are engaged in the sale of insurance are licensed as insurance agents. InsWeb's operations depend on the
validity of and continued good standing under the licenses and approvals pursuant to which InsWeb's subsidiary, licensed officers and agents operate. Licensing laws and regulations vary depending on
the jurisdiction. The applicable licensing laws and regulations are subject to amendment or interpretation by regulatory authorities. Such authorities generally are vested with broad discretion
concerning the allowance,
renewal and revocation of licenses and approvals. The inability to obtain the requisite agent licenses or other necessary licenses, permits, or authorizations could harm InsWeb's business.

InsWeb
transferred responsibility for the ongoing operation of InsWeb's website in April 1999 to its licensed subsidiary, and intends to conduct business activities that require a
license through this subsidiary and InsWeb's licensed officers and agents. Offering services through this licensed subsidiary or through licensed officers and agents could create conflicts with
insurance companies that have policies prohibiting them from employing insurance agents or from selling insurance through agents that compete with their own exclusive agents. These conflicts could
result in a loss of business from these insurance companies and could harm InsWeb's business.

InsWeb
developed its Customer Care Center to provide assistance to consumers who visit InsWeb's website through email and live telephone support. InsWeb believes that the defined
responsibilities of the service representatives staffing the Customer Care Center do not require licensure; however, InsWeb intends to comply with any licensing requirement of the jurisdictions served
by the Customer Care Center.

InsWeb
faces additional regulatory risk because most of the laws and regulations governing the transaction of insurance, including laws and regulations relating to marketing and
underwriting, do not currently address the delivery of services through electronic communications. Until these laws and regulations are revised to clarify their applicability to electronic commerce,
any company offering insurance products and services through the Internet or other means of electronic commerce will face uncertainty as to compliance with these laws and regulations. InsWeb's
policies and procedures may not be deemed acceptable by any regulatory body examining its activities in light of these potentially different laws and regulations. Any adverse regulatory actions could
seriously harm InsWeb's business.

In
addition, many state insurance codes limit the collection and use of personal information by insurance companies, agents, or insurance service organizations and, under certain
circumstances, the payment of insurance-related compensation to unlicensed persons. If InsWeb does not comply with these state laws, InsWeb could be subject to fines or other enforcement proceedings
that could harm its business. To date, InsWeb has not been notified by any regulatory authority that its information practices or compensation methodologies do not comply with these state laws.

Intellectual Property

InsWeb regards its intellectual property as critical to its success, and relies upon trademark, copyright and trade secrets laws in the United States and other
jurisdictions to protect its proprietary rights. The INSWEB mark has been registered in the United States, France, Germany, South Korea, Japan and the United Kingdom, among others, and applications
are pending in several other countries. Other U.S. and worldwide trademark applications include, but are not limited to, eAgent, InsWeb.com, Powered by InsWeb, Where You and Your Insurance Really
Click, and Lower Your Insurance Costs, Not Your Expectations. InsWeb has applied for patents on its core technology and related patentable subject
matter; however no patent has been issued, and thus InsWeb cannot currently prevent a competitor from independently using similar functionality. In connection with its acquisition of assets from
Intuit in January 2001, InsWeb obtained the rights to patent applications filed by Intuit relating to

10

---

Intuit's online insurance shopping and purchasing service. InsWeb intends to continue to pursue these patents. InsWeb's pending trademark registrations and patent applications may not be approved or
granted, or, if granted, may be successfully challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process or litigation. In addition, effective patent, copyright, trademark, and trade secret
protection may be unavailable or limited in some foreign countries. InsWeb also seeks to protect its proprietary rights through physical and technological security measures, and through the use of
confidentiality or license agreements with its business partners, employees, consultants, advisors and others, and generally to control access to, and distribution and use of, its software,
documentation, business and other proprietary information. Despite InsWeb's efforts to protect its proprietary rights from unauthorized use or disclosure, employees, consultants, advisors or others
may not maintain the confidentiality of InsWeb's proprietary information, and this proprietary information may otherwise become known, or be independently developed, by competitors. The steps InsWeb
has taken may not prevent misappropriation of its proprietary rights, particularly in foreign countries where laws or law enforcement practices may not protect its proprietary rights as fully as in
the United States.

InsWeb
licenses its trademarks and similar proprietary rights to third parties. While InsWeb attempts to ensure that the quality of its brand is maintained by these companies, they may
take actions that could harm the value of InsWeb's proprietary rights or the reputation of InsWeb or its services.

InsWeb
may receive notice of claims of infringement of other parties' proprietary rights or claims that its own patents or other intellectual property rights are invalid. From time to
time InsWeb has been subject to infringement claims in the ordinary course of its business, including claims of alleged infringement of the trademark rights of third parties by InsWeb and the
companies with which it does business. Any of these claims, with or without merit, could be time consuming to defend, result in costly litigation, divert management attention and resources or require
InsWeb to enter into royalty or licensing agreements. Licenses may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all, and the assertion or prosecution of any infringement claims could significantly harm
InsWeb's business.

Employees

As of December 31, 2002, InsWeb had 166 full-time employees. InsWeb has never had a work stoppage, and none of its employees are currently
represented under collective bargaining agreements. InsWeb considers its relations with its employees to be good. InsWeb believes that its future success will depend in part on the continued service
of its senior management and key technical personnel and its ability to attract, integrate, retain and motivate highly qualified technical and managerial personnel. Competition for qualified personnel
in InsWeb's industry and geographical location is intense. InsWeb may not continue to be successful in attracting and retaining a sufficient number of qualified personnel to conduct its business in
the future.

As of March 20, 2003, InsWeb's executive officers were as follows:

|Name               |  | Position With InsWeb                                 |  | Age

Mr. Enan served as InsWeb's Chief Executive Officer from February 1995 to June 2002. Mr. Enan also served as InsWeb's President from May 1999 to June 2000.
From March 1992 to November 1994, Mr. Enan was a general partner at E.W. Blanch, a reinsurance intermediary that merged with his own wholly-owned company, Enan & Company, a
reinsurance intermediary, in March 1992. Mr. Enan founded Enan & Company in February 1979.

Mark P. Guthriejoined InsWeb in September 1997 as Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships and served as its Executive Vice
President of Operations from July 1998 to June 2000. Mr. Guthrie served as InsWeb's Chief Operating Officer since January 2000, its President since June 2000 and
Chief Executive Officer since July 2002. Mr. Guthrie became a director of InsWeb in July 2002. From July 1995 to August 1997, Mr. Guthrie held various
positions with Industrial Indemnity, a nationwide property and casualty insurance company, most recently as senior operating officer of national programs.

William D. Griffinjoined InsWeb in May 2001 as Chief Financial Officer. From August 1999 to February 2001,
Mr. Griffin was Chief Financial Officer of ZipSend, Inc., an Internet services company, of which he was a co-founder. From October 1998 through August 1999,
Mr. Griffin provided consulting services to various early stage Internet and technology companies. Prior to that, from May 1990 through September 1998, Mr. Griffin was
Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Inference Corporation, a customer services software company.

L. Eric Loewejoined InsWeb in October 1998 as Corporate Counsel, Legal and Regulatory, responsible for all regulatory compliance
issues, and has served as Senior Vice President and General Counsel since September 2000 and as Secretary since July 2001. Mr. Loewe held various positions with the National
Association of Independent Insurers from January 1980 to September 1998. As Senior Counsel for the NAII, Mr. Loewe was responsible for legislation and regulations affecting the
association's 570 member companies. Mr. Loewe is a member of the Illinois and California bars.

Item 2. Properties.

InsWeb's corporate headquarters and its principal administrative, product development, sales and marketing operations are located in a 55,000 square foot facility
in the Sacramento, California area, which InsWeb occupies under a lease expiring in 2011. InsWeb also leases approximately 75,000 square feet of office space in Redwood City, California under leases
expiring through September 2008, and 12,474 square feet of office space in Westlake Village, California under a lease expiring in July 2004. These facilities were formerly occupied by
InsWeb as its headquarters and agency facilities, respectively, and were vacated by InsWeb in December 2000 when it consolidated its operations at its present facility.

One
of the vacated office leases is for a 65,000 square foot building in Redwood City, California. Under the terms of this lease, InsWeb is responsible for taxes, insurance and
maintenance expenses. InsWeb had previously subleased a portion of the Redwood City facility under a four-year sublease agreement. In July 2002, InsWeb and its
sub-lessee agreed to amend the sublease, whereby, the sub-lessee agreed to rent the entire facility for the duration of the InsWeb lease (through September 2008). All
rent and operating expenses otherwise payable by InsWeb to the landlord will be paid directly by the sub-lessee. However, the sub-lessee is a start-up company with
limited operating history and, therefore, there are inherent risks and uncertainties associated with its future operations and its ability to discharge its obligations through the term of the
sublease. In the event that the sub-lessee defaults on its obligations under the amended sublease, InsWeb would be responsible for making the required lease payments to the landlord
through the remaining term of the lease. In connection with this lease and other lease obligations for formerly occupied facilities, InsWeb must make assumptions regarding the estimated future
sublease income relative to these facilities. These

12

---

estimates and assumptions are affected by area-specific conditions such as new commercial development, market occupancy rates and future market prices. If these estimates or their related
assumptions change in the future, InsWeb may be required to record a charge to increase its existing accrual.

InsWeb
believes that its existing facilities are adequate to meet its needs for future growth, and there should be no need to lease additional or alternative space in the near term.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.



In February 2001, InsWeb temporarily suspended its online health insurance quoting services due to the decision by eHealthInsurance, Inc., formerly
InsWeb's exclusive provider of online health insurance quotes, to unilaterally terminate their marketing agreement. In February 2001, eHealthInsurance filed suit in the U.S. District Court for
the Northern District of California alleging InsWeb's failure to perform its obligations under the agreement. In March 2001, InsWeb filed a counterclaim alleging that eHealthInsurance
wrongfully terminated the agreement and pursued a course of conduct aimed at damaging InsWeb's business. On March 24, 2003, the parties agreed to settle the lawsuit and dismiss all of the
claims asserted against each other. In addition, eHealthInsurance agreed to pay InsWeb $800,000 for the services performed by InsWeb prior to the termination of the agreement.

Securities Class Action Lawsuit

A class action lawsuit was filed on December 5, 2001 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of InsWeb
common stock alleging violations of federal securities laws. The case is brought purportedly on behalf of all persons who purchased InsWeb common stock from July 22, 1999 through
December 6, 2000. The complaint names as defendants InsWeb, certain current and former officers and directors, and three underwriters for InsWeb's initial public offering in July 1999.
The complaint alleges violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on the grounds that the prospectus incorporated in the registration statement for the offering
failed to disclose, among other things, that (i) the underwriters had solicited and received excessive and undisclosed commissions from certain investors in exchange for which the underwriters
allocated to those investors substantial blocks of the stock sold in the initial public offering, and (ii) the underwriters had entered into agreements with customers whereby the underwriters
agreed to allocate shares of the stock sold in the initial public offering to those customers in exchange for which the customers agreed to purchase additional shares of InsWeb stock in the
aftermarket at pre-determined prices that were above the initial public offering price. No specific damages are claimed. In February 2003, the court dismissed the claims alleging
violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 but allowed the plaintiffs to proceed with the remaining claims. InsWeb believes that the remaining allegations against InsWeb and its current and
former officers and directors are without merit and intends to contest them vigorously. The litigation is in the preliminary stage, and InsWeb cannot predict its outcome. The litigation process is
inherently uncertain. An unfavorable outcome
could have a material adverse effect on InsWeb's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

None.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K and in particular Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations contains forward-looking statements with respect to InsWeb's future financial performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks and uncertainties,
including the factors described below under the caption "Factors That May Affect Our Future Performance," and other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, that could cause
InsWeb's actual results to differ materially from historical results or those currently anticipated.

Overview

InsWeb operates an online insurance marketplace that enables consumers to shop online for a variety of insurance products, including automobile, term life,
homeowners, renters and health insurance, and obtain insurance company-sponsored quotes for actual coverage. In order to create this marketplace, InsWeb has established close relationships with a
significant number of insurance companies throughout the United States.

InsWeb's
principal source of revenues is transaction fees from participating insurance companies. While quotes obtained through InsWeb's online insurance marketplace are provided to
consumers free of charge, InsWeb earns revenues from participating insurance companies based on the delivery of qualified leads. With certain insurance companies, InsWeb is paid a fee only when the
consumer purchases an insurance policy, and with others, InsWeb is paid a transaction fee based on the delivery of a lead, regardless of whether or not the consumer actually purchases a policy.
Qualified leads are produced in two ways: for insurance companies providing instant online quotes, a qualified lead is produced when a consumer clicks to request insurance coverage based on a specific
quote; for insurance companies providing e-mail or other offline quotes, a qualified lead is produced when a consumer clicks to request the quote itself. Once a lead is generated by the
consumer's request for an application or offline quote, InsWeb transmits the lead either to InsWeb Insurance Services, or to the selected insurance company or other entity by e-mail, file
transfer or direct connection to the insurance company's information system. InsWeb provides each participating insurance company with custom-formatted lead information based on the insurance
companies individual requirements.

In
October 1999, InsWeb began generating commission revenue as an insurance agent based on activities it performs related to the sale of certain automobile insurance policies in
California. Since
that date, InsWeb has expanded its insurance agency operations. As of December 31, 2002, InsWeb's subsidiary, InsWeb Insurance Services, Inc., has been appointed as an authorized
automobile insurance agent by 10 participating insurance companies and is acting as an agent in nine states. InsWeb receives a commission based on a percentage of the initial insurance policy premium
related to each insurance policy sale where InsWeb has acted as the agent. InsWeb recognizes the revenue from these activities on the effective date of the policy, less an estimate for early
cancellations of the underlying insurance policies. InsWeb also recognizes revenue when an applicable policy is renewed. Commission revenue is included in transaction fees. InsWeb intends to expand
its online insurance agency operations by adding additional participating insurance companies and by expanding into additional states.

A
less significant, but on-going source of revenues for InsWeb are development and maintenance fees that are paid by insurance companies that participate on the InsWeb
insurance marketplace. Development fees are generated from the design and development of customized interfaces between an insurance company's information system and the InsWeb site. InsWeb charges
maintenance fees for maintaining and servicing the programs of the individual insurance companies and for maintaining any hardware at InsWeb's facility that is dedicated to specific insurance
companies.

InsWeb
initially focused its efforts on developing insurance company coverage for automobile insurance in order to be able to offer true comparative online shopping for this important
segment of the insurance market. Automobile insurance accounted for approximately 83% of transaction revenues in 2002, 67% in 2001 and 69% in 2000. We anticipate that automobile insurance will
continue to account for a significant portion of InsWeb's revenues for the foreseeable future. However, InsWeb intends to continue to expand its online insurance marketplace by adding new products and
additional insurance companies.

InsWeb
has been dependent on a limited number of insurance companies for a majority of its revenues. Revenues from Amica, GE Financial Assurance and Kemper Direct accounted for
approximately 14%, 14% and 10%, respectively, of InsWeb's revenues for the year ended December 31, 2002. Revenues from Amica, GE Financial Assurance and AIG accounted for approximately 11%, 11%
and 10%, respectively, of InsWeb's revenues for the year ended December 31, 2001. Revenues from State Farm, AIG and GE Financial Assurance accounted for approximately 14%, 11% and 9%,
respectively, of InsWeb's revenues for the year ended December 31, 2000. InsWeb expects its revenues to become less concentrated as new insurance companies are added to its online insurance
marketplace. However, because of the broad market presence of some of InsWeb's participating insurance companies, InsWeb expects to continue to generate a substantial portion of its revenues from a
limited number of insurance companies for the foreseeable future.

Since
its inception, InsWeb has incurred significant losses, and as of December 31, 2002, InsWeb had an accumulated deficit of $174.8 million. These losses, and this
accumulated deficit, have resulted from the significant costs incurred in the development of InsWeb's technology platform, the establishment of relationships with insurance companies, their
integration with the InsWeb site, and InsWeb's marketing
and sales activities. InsWeb intends to continue to invest in product development and maintenance, sales and marketing and in its administrative infrastructure. As a result, InsWeb believes that it
will continue to incur operating losses at least through 2003. Although InsWeb has experienced revenue growth in recent periods, its operating results for future periods are subject to numerous
uncertainties, and there can be no assurance that InsWeb's revenue growth will continue or that it will be able to achieve and sustain profitability. In view of the rapidly evolving nature of InsWeb's
business and its limited operating history, InsWeb believes that period-to-period comparisons of its operating results are not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied
upon as an indication of future performance.

Recent Developments



In January 2001, InsWeb acquired from Intuit certain assets and related liabilities associated with an online insurance shopping and purchasing service
operated by Intuit Insurance Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intuit. In connection with the acquisition, InsWeb and Intuit entered into a license and distribution agreement under
which Intuit and InsWeb granted one another licenses to create links between their respective websites in order to create and operate a co-branded insurance center. Under this agreement,
InsWeb is the exclusive aggregator of online consumer insurance services for Quicken.com, an Intuit website. The original agreement required InsWeb to pay Intuit fixed fees totaling
$20.5 million plus additional amounts associated with consumers linking from the Quicken.com website to the InsWeb co-branded insurance center.

In
March 2002, the parties amended the license and distribution agreement. Under the amended agreement, InsWeb will make the originally agreed upon fixed payments
(long-term marketing commitments) only through July 31, 2003. Fixed payments previously payable to Intuit after July 31, 2003 were eliminated. Effective August 1, 2003
and through the remainder of the agreement (January 2006), InsWeb will pay Intuit a portion of the transaction fees received by InsWeb from the Intuit Internet traffic, payable on a quarterly
basis. The net result of this amended contract was a $10.6 million extraordinary gain.

In
December 2002, as a result of continuously lower than anticipated traffic levels, InsWeb reassessed the recoverability of the prepaid marketing costs asset recorded in
connection with the acquisition, by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated relating to this asset to its carrying amount. Based on this evaluation, InsWeb
determined that the acquired asset was
impaired and recorded an impairment charge, as the carrying value of this asset was in excess of its fair value. The fair value was based on estimated future cash flows to be generated from the
license and distribution agreement, discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

In
assessing the recoverability of InsWeb's prepaid marketing costs asset, InsWeb must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine fair value.
Specifically, the variability in anticipated traffic levels, number of completed shopping sessions, and revenue per completed shopping session affect these estimates and assumptions.



In December 2002, the Board of Directors authorized management to repurchase 107,445 shares of InsWeb's common stock held by SOFTBANK Ventures, Inc.
for $0.2 million or $1.49 per share. Additionally, in February 2003, the Board of Directors authorized management to repurchase 2,241,440 shares of InsWeb's common stock, consisting of
1,169,898 shares held by Intuit Insurance Services, Inc. and 1,071,542 shares held by SOFTBANK America, Inc. These shares were purchased for $3.8 million, or $1.70 per share. With
the closing of these transactions, total SOFTBANK Corporation's holdings of InsWeb common stock have been reduced to 353,032 shares, while Intuit Insurance Services, Inc. holds no shares.



In March 2003, InsWeb and eHealthInsurance.com agreed to settle ongoing litigation in the U.S. District Court for Northern California. The litigation
stemmed from eHealthInsurance's decision in February 2001 to terminate an agreement concerning the marketing of health insurance to consumers originating at InsWeb. Although specific terms of
the settlement agreement are confidential, eHealthInsurance has agreed to pay InsWeb $0.8 million for the services performed by InsWeb prior to the termination of the marketing agreement. In
addition, the parties have released all claims against each other relating to the marketing agreement.

Years Ended December 31, 2002 and 2001



Transaction Fees.Transaction fees accounted for $24.1 million, or 94.3%, of total revenues in
2002, compared to $23.0 million, or 92.5%, in 2001. The increase was primarily the result of the increased number of leads generated by an increased number of completed shopping sessions. The
increase in shopping sessions resulted from increased consumer traffic due to InsWeb's consumer marketing activities, and the addition of a substantial number of online relationships.

During
the year ended December 31, 2002, more than 3.4 million shopping sessions were completed on InsWeb's online marketplace, a 21% increase over the 2.8 million
shopping sessions completed in 2001. InsWeb recorded more than 14.6 million consumer quotes presented during the year ended December 31, 2002, compared to 12.9 million in 2001.

Development and Maintenance Fees.Development and maintenance fees accounted for $1.4 million,
or 5.7%, of total revenues in 2002, compared to $1.9 million, or 7.5%, in 2001. Development and maintenance fees are expected to continue to decline as set-up programs have become a
less significant component in an insurance company's initial participation.

Technology.Technology expenses consist primarily of payroll and related expenses for development and
technology personnel. Technology expenses decreased to $10.3 million in 2002 from $14.0 million in 2001.
The decrease was primarily attributable to a reduction in headcount and decreased amortization of capitalized website costs. Technology expenses in 2003 are expected to be comparable to 2002 expenses.

20

---

Sales and Marketing.Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of consumer marketing
expenditures for advertising, promotions and fees paid to Internet companies, as well as payroll and related expenses for InsWeb's sales and marketing personnel, customer care center personnel and
insurance agency operations. Sales and marketing expenses decreased to $18.3 million in 2002 from $28.8 million in 2001. The decrease was primarily attributable to significant reductions
in traditional consumer marketing relationships combined with a reduction in headcount. Direct marketing costs will fluctuate based on the amount of consumer traffic driven to the InsWeb marketplace,
while all other sales and marketing expenditures in 2003 are expected to be comparable to 2002 expenses.

General and Administrative.General and administrative expenses consist primarily of payroll and
related expenses for InsWeb's management, administrative and accounting personnel, expenses relating to site operations, occupancy costs, professional fees and other general corporate expenses.
General and administrative expenses decreased to $6.9 million in 2002, compared to $7.3 million in 2001. The decrease was primarily due to decreased personnel and related costs, and
decreased office and occupancy costs, partially offset by an increase in legal expenses incurred during the period in connection with the ongoing litigation with eHealthInsurance. General and
administrative expenses in 2003 are expected to be comparable to 2002 expenses.

Amortization of Stock-based Compensation.Amortization of stock-based compensation decreased to $0 in
2002 compared to $0.3 million in 2001. Deferred stock-based compensation amounts were fully amortized in 2001.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.In January 2001, InsWeb acquired from
Intuit, Inc. certain assets and related liabilities associated with an online insurance shopping and purchasing service operated by Intuit Insurance Services, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Intuit. In connection with the acquisition, InsWeb and Intuit entered into a license and distribution agreement under which Intuit and InsWeb granted one another licenses to create links
between their respective websites in order to create and operate a co-branded insurance center. InsWeb recorded a long-lived asset of $17.0 million for prepaid marketing
costs and an intangible asset of $13.1 million relating to the beneficial terms of the license and distribution agreement. The fair value of the intangible asset was estimated based on the
expected Internet traffic to be received from Intuit by InsWeb.

In
2002 and 2001, as a result of significantly lower than anticipated traffic levels, InsWeb reassessed the recoverability of the assets recorded in connection with this transaction by
comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated relating to this asset to its carrying amount. Based on these evaluations, InsWeb determined that the acquired assets
were impaired and recorded
impairment charges of $3.7 million and $18.5 million, respectively, as the carrying value of these assets was in excess of fair value. The fair value of the acquired assets was based on
estimated future cash flows to be generated from the license and distribution agreement, discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

Restructuring and Other Charges.InsWeb recorded a charge of $1.8 million in 2002 to increase
the accrual for lease obligations relating to formerly occupied facilities. In evaluating these lease obligations, InsWeb must make assumptions regarding the estimated future sublease income relative
to these facilities. These estimates and assumptions are affected by area-specific conditions such as new commercial development, market occupancy rates and future market prices. As a
result of the continued decline in the real estate markets where the InsWeb properties are located and the inherent risk associated with its sub-lessee, due to recent actions by the
sub-lessee in attempting to renegotiate and/or terminate the amended sublease agreement, the Company recorded the additional charge of $1.8 million in 2002. If these estimates or
their related assumptions change in the future, InsWeb may be required to record a charge to increase its existing accrual.

21

In
2001, InsWeb recorded a charge of $1.8 million to write-down certain leasehold improvements to their net realizable value and to establish the accrual for lease
obligations relating to formerly occupied facilities.



Interest expense was $0.5 million in 2002, compared to $1.0 million in 2001. The decrease in interest expense was primarily attributable to imputed
interest associated with the long-term marketing commitments (fixed payments) recorded in conjunction with the purchase of assets from Intuit, Inc.



Interest income and other, net decreased to $0.7 million in 2002 from $2.1 million in 2001. Interest income and other, net includes income earned on
InsWeb's investments and the gain (loss) on foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations associated with a note payable due to a strategic partner and stockholder incurred in connection with InsWeb's
original investment in InsWeb Japan K.K. and with InsWeb's investment in Finance All K.K. The decrease in interest income and other, net was primarily a result of decreased interest income due to
lower average cash and short-term investment balances during 2002 and to a lesser extent, lower interest rates.



As more fully discussed above in "Recent Developments," InsWeb amended, in 2002, its license and distribution agreement that was entered into in connection with
the purchase of certain assets of Intuit Insurance Services, Inc. in 2001. A portion of the fixed payments previously payable to Intuit were eliminated. The net result of this amended contract
was a $10.6 million extraordinary gain.

Years Ended December 31, 2001 and 2000



Transaction Fees.Transaction fees accounted for $23.0 million, or 92.5%, of total revenues in
2001, compared to $19.6 million, or 84.2%, in 2000. The increase was primarily the result of the increased number of leads generated by an increased number of completed shopping sessions. The
increase in shopping sessions resulted from increased consumer traffic due to InsWeb's consumer marketing activities and the addition of a substantial number of online relationships.

During
the year ended December 31, 2001, more than 2.8 million shopping sessions were completed on InsWeb's online marketplace, a 27% increase over the 2.2 million
shopping sessions completed in 2000. InsWeb recorded more than 13.3 million consumer quotes presented during the year ended December 31, 2001, compared to 8.0 million in 2000.

Development and Maintenance Fees.Development and maintenance fees accounted for $1.9 million,
or 7.5%, of total revenues in 2001, compared to $3.6 million, or 15.8% in 2000. The decrease primarily resulted from a reduction in revenue under a development agreement with InsWeb Japan K.K.
in 2000.



Technology.Technology expenses decreased to $14.0 million in 2001 from $22.9 million
in 2000. The decrease was primarily due to the reduction in headcount resulting from InsWeb's restructuring efforts in 2000.

22

---

Sales and Marketing.Sales and marketing expenses decreased to $28.8 million in 2001 from
$34.0 million in 2000. The decrease was primarily attributable to significant reductions in traditional consumer marketing relationships combined with a reduction in headcount resulting from
InsWeb's restructuring efforts in 2000.

General and Administrative.General and administrative expenses decreased to $7.3 million in
2001 from $11.2 million in 2000. The decrease was primarily due to decreased personnel and related costs, and decreased office and occupancy costs.

Amortization of Intangible Assets.Amortization of intangible assets decreased to $0 in 2001 from
$1.2 million in 2000. The decrease was attributable to the write-down of intangible assets recorded in connection with the acquisition of Benelytics.

Amortization of Stock-based Compensation.Amortization of stock-based compensation was $256,000 in
2001 compared to $912,000 in 2000. The decrease was attributable to the reduction in employees in conjunction with InsWeb's restructuring plan.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.In January 2001, InsWeb acquired from
Intuit, Inc. certain assets and related liabilities associated with an online insurance shopping and purchasing service operated by Intuit Insurance Services, Inc., a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Intuit. In connection with the acquisition, InsWeb and Intuit entered into a license and distribution agreement. InsWeb recorded a long-lived asset of $17.0 million
for prepaid marketing costs and an intangible asset of $13.1 million relating to the beneficial terms of the license and distribution agreement. The fair value of the intangible asset was
estimated based on the expected Internet traffic to be received from Intuit by InsWeb.

In
December 2001, as a result of significantly lower than anticipated traffic levels, InsWeb reassessed the recoverability of the assets recorded in connection with this
transaction by comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated relating to this asset to its carrying amount. Based on these evaluations, InsWeb determined that the
acquired assets were impaired and recorded an impairment charge of $18.5 million, as the carrying value of these assets were in excess of fair value. The fair value of the acquired assets was
based on estimated future cash flows to be generated from the license and distribution agreement, discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

In
2000, InsWeb evaluated the recoverability of the assets recorded in connection with its acquisition of Benelytics and determined, as a result of its partnership with eHealthInsurance
announced in April 2000, that it would be unlikely to recover the carrying amount. Accordingly, InsWeb recorded a write-down of $4.4 million of goodwill and other intangible
assets, including the assembled workforce and contractual relationships.

Restructuring and Other Charges.Restructuring and other charges expense decreased to
$1.8 million in 2001 from $2.2 million in 2000. In 2001, InsWeb recorded a charge of $1.8 million to write-down certain leasehold improvements to their net realizable
value and to establish the accrual for lease obligations relating to formerly occupied facilities, as InsWeb's ability to sublease these facilities was uncertain. In 2000, InsWeb recorded a
restructuring charge of $2.2 million for the closure of certain exited facilities in connection with the relocation of InsWeb's entire operation to the Sacramento, California area. The charge
consisted of employee separation costs of $1.0 million, asset impairment charges related to closure of its San Carlos facility of $1.3 million, and other exit costs of
$0.9 million, offset by a lease termination fee of $1.0 million received as a result of the termination of a lease on InsWeb's San Carlos facility. The restructuring plan was completed
in 2001.

Separately,
InsWeb recorded charges of approximately $4.8 million in 2000 for retention agreements with key employees, relocation expenses, and other transition costs. These
charges were recorded in technology, sales and marketing, and general and administrative expenses, respectively.

Interest expense in 2001 was $1.0 million, compared to $87,000 in 2000. The increase in interest expense was primarily attributable to imputed interest
associated with the long-term marketing commitments (fixed payments) recorded in conjunction with the purchase of assets from Intuit, Inc. Interest expense in 2000 consisted solely
of interest payments associated with a note payable due to a strategic partner and stockholder incurred in connection with InsWeb's original investment in InsWeb Japan K.K.



Interest income and other, net was $2.1 million in 2001 compared to $4.4 million in 2000. The decrease in interest income and other, net was
primarily a result of decreased interest income due to lower average cash and short-term investment balances during 2001 and to a lesser extent, lower interest rates.

Critical Accounting Policies

InsWeb's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based on InsWeb's consolidated financial statements which have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires InsWeb to make estimates and judgments that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. InsWeb bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form
the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different
assumptions or conditions. InsWeb believes the following critical accounting policies affect its more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial
statements.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets.In assessing the recoverability of InsWeb's
long-lived assets, principally prepaid marketing costs, InsWeb must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the respective
assets. Specifically, the variability in anticipated traffic levels, number of completed shopping sessions, and revenue per completed shopping session affect these estimates and assumptions. If the
number of completed shopping sessions, and/or revenue per completed shopping session is below currently anticipated amounts, InsWeb may be required to record additional impairment charges.

Cost-Method Investments.InsWeb holds a minority ownership interest in Finance All K.K.,
a privately-held corporation. As of December 31, 2002, the carrying value of this investment was $1.7 million. InsWeb would record an investment impairment charge if and when
it believes an investment has experienced a decline in value that is other than temporary. Future adverse changes in market conditions or poor operating results of Finance All K.K. could result in an
inability to recover the carrying value of the investment, thereby possibly requiring an impairment charge in the future.

Accrual for Lease Obligations.InsWeb is contractually obligated to make future lease payments on
certain formerly occupied facilities through September 2008. As of December 31, 2002, total future obligations for these facilities amounted to $13.9 million; these obligations
are contractually offset by total future sublease income of approximately $11.0 million. However, the sub-lessee is a start-up company with limited operating history
and, therefore, there are inherent risks and uncertainties associated with its
future operations and its ability to discharge its obligations through the term of the sublease. In the event that the sub-lessee defaults on its obligations under the amended sublease,
InsWeb would be responsible for making the required lease payments to the landlord through the

24

---

remaining term of the lease. In connection with this lease and other lease obligations for formerly occupied facilities, InsWeb must make assumptions regarding the estimated future sublease income
relative to these facilities. These estimates and assumptions are affected by area-specific conditions such as new commercial development, market occupancy rates and future market prices.
As a result of the continued decline in the real estate markets where the InsWeb properties are located and the inherent risk associated with its sub-lessee, due to recent actions by the
sub-lessee in attempting to renegotiate and/or terminate the amended sublease agreement, the Company recorded an additional charge of $1.8 million in 2002 to increase its accrual
for formerly occupied facilities. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, InsWeb may be required to record a charge to increase its accrual.

Contingencies.As discussed in "Item 3Legal Proceedings," eHealthInsurance filed suit in
the U.S. District Court for Northern California alleging InsWeb's failure to perform its obligations under their marketing agreement. On March 24, 2003, the parties agreed to settle this
lawsuit and to dismiss all claims against each other. Also as discussed in Item 3, a class action lawsuit has been filed that alleges InsWeb violated certain federal securities laws at the time of its
initial public offering. Although some claims against InsWeb have been dismissed, InsWeb cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of this matter at this time and therefore, cannot estimate the
range of probable loss, if any, due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation. InsWeb believes it has meritorious defenses with respect to the class action lawsuit, however InsWeb cannot assure that
it will prevail in this action. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse effect on InsWeb's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Liquidity And Capital Resources

At December 31, 2002, InsWeb's principal source of liquidity was $28.9 million in cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments.
Since inception, InsWeb has financed its operations primarily through the sale of preferred and common stock.

Net
cash used in operating activities was $4.1 million in 2002 compared to $11.8 million in 2001 and $38.3 million in 2000. In 2002, the use of cash primarily
consisted of InsWeb's operating loss, excluding non-cash items of: extraordinary gain of $10.6 million; charge for the impairment of long-lived asset of
$3.7 million; depreciation and amortization of fixed assets of $1.8 million; restructuring and other charges of $1.8 million; and amortization of prepaid marketing costs of
$1.5 million. Decreases in deposits and other assets partially offset by the decrease in other liabilities affected cash used in operations in 2002. In 2001, the non-cash items
included a charge for the impairment of long-lived assets and prepaid marketing costs of $20.4 million, depreciation and amortization of fixed assets of $5.3 million and
amortization of intangible assets of $5.6 million. Decreases in deferred revenue offset by decreases in prepaid expenses and other current assets affected cash used in operations in 2001. In
2000, the non-cash items included a charge for the impairment of long-lived assets of $4.4 million, depreciation and
amortization of fixed assets of $3.6 million, write-down of fixed assets relating to restructuring efforts of $1.3 million, amortization of intangible assets of
$1.2 million and amortization of deferred compensation of $0.9 million. Increases in deposits and other assets, accounts payable and accrued expenses, offset by decreases in accounts
receivable, deferred revenue and other liabilities affected cash used in operations in 2000.

Net
cash provided by investing activities was $4.6 million in 2002 compared to $3.2 million in 2001 and $34.6 million in 2000. Net cash provided by investing
activities in 2002 consisted of net maturities of short-term investments of $4.4 million, sales of property and equipment of $0.9 million partially offset by capital
expenditures of $0.7 million. Net cash provided by investing activities in 2001 primarily consisted of net maturities of short-term investments of $5.4 million offset by
capital expenditures of $1.6 million. Net cash provided by investing activities in 2000 primarily consisted of net maturities of short-term investments of $42.7 million
offset by capital expenditures of $7.5 million.

25

Net
cash used in financing activities was $2.7 million in 2002 compared to $1.6 million in 2001, and net cash provided by financing activities was $2.8 million in
2000. Net cash used in financing activities in 2002 primarily represented repayments of debt of $2.6 million. Net cash used in financing activities in 2001 primarily represented repayments of
debt of $1.5 million. Net cash provided by financing activities in 2000 primarily represented proceeds of $2.8 million received from the issuance of common stock pursuant to InsWeb's
stock plans.

As
of December 31, 2002, InsWeb had the following contractual commitments (in thousands):

|                                           |  | Total |        | 2003 |   | 2004  |  | 2005 |       | 2006 |   | 2007  |  | Thereafter
|------------------------------------------ |  | ----- | ------ | ---- | - | ----- |  | ---- | ----- | ---- | - | ----- |  | ----------
|Long-term marketing commitment with Intuit |  | $     | 2,000  |      | $ | 2,000 |  | $    |      |      | $ |      |  | $

|                                           |  |       |        |      |   |       |  |      |       |      |   |       |  |           
|                                           |  | $     | 25,729 |      | $ | 6,790 |  | $    | 3,356 |      | $ | 3,257 |  | $         
|                                           |  |       |        |      |   |       |  |      |       |      |   |       |  |           

In
addition to the fixed payments for long-term marketing commitments due to Intuit through July 2003, effective August 1, 2003 and through the remainder of the
agreement (January 2006), InsWeb will pay Intuit a portion of the transaction fees received by InsWeb from Intuit Internet traffic, payable on a quarterly basis.

In
July 2002, InsWeb and one of its sub-lessees agreed to amend the sublease covering portions of the property InsWeb formerly occupied as its headquarters in Redwood
City. Under the terms of the amendment, the sub-lessee agreed to rent the entire facility for the duration of InsWeb's lease (through September 2008). All rent and operating
expenses otherwise payable by InsWeb to the landlord will be paid directly by the sub-lessee. Therefore, the amended sublease agreement results in a reduction in InsWeb's operating lease
commitments by $10.7 million, through the remainder of the lease. However, the sub-lessee is a start-up company with limited operating history and, therefore, there are
inherent risks and uncertainties associated with its future operations and its ability to discharge its obligations through the term of the sublease. In the event that the sub-lessee
defaults on its obligations under the amended sublease, InsWeb would be responsible for making the required lease payments to the landlord through the remaining term of the lease. In connection with
this lease and other lease obligations for formerly occupied facilities, InsWeb must make assumptions regarding the estimated future sublease income relative to these facilities. These estimates and
assumptions are affected by area-specific conditions such as new commercial development, market occupancy rates and future market prices. If these estimates or their related assumptions
change in the future, InsWeb may be required to record a charge to increase its existing reserves.

InsWeb
currently anticipates that its cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments will be sufficient to meet its anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital
expenditures for at least the next 12 months. Although InsWeb does not anticipate the need for additional financing, InsWeb nevertheless
may require additional funds to meet operating needs, or to expand its business internally or through acquisition. InsWeb cannot be certain that additional financing will be available when required,
on favorable terms or at all. If InsWeb is not successful in raising additional capital as required, its business could be materially harmed. If additional funds were raised through the issuance of
equity securities, the percentage ownership of InsWeb's then-current stockholders would be reduced.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 145 ("SFAS 145"),
the "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 62, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." SFAS 145 will require gains and losses on extinguishments of
debt to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations rather than as extraordinary items. SFAS 145 is effective for InsWeb's fiscal year beginning January 1, 2003. Upon the
effective date of SFAS 145, the extraordinary gain of $10.6 million, recorded in 2002 in connection with the amendment of the license and distribution agreement with Intuit (see
Note 10 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements), will be reclassified to other income. Except for this reclassification, the adoption of SFAS 145 is not expected to affect
InsWeb's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In
November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on Issue 00-21 ("EITF 00-21"), which addresses how to account for arrangements that
may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services, and/or rights to use assets. This issue addresses how to account for these multiple-element revenue arrangements and focuses on
when a revenue arrangement should be separated into components or deliverables, or alternatively, when smaller deliverables or elements should be combined for purposes of recognizing revenue. EITF
00-21 will be applicable to agreements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect
that EITF 00-21 may have, if any, on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

In
December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Statement No. ("SFAS 148") "Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and
Disclosure." SFAS 148 amends SFAS 123 to provide alternative methods of transition to SFAS 123's fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. SFAS 148 also
amends the disclosure provisions of SFAS 123 and APB Opinion No. 28, "Interim Financial Reporting," to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects
of an entity's accounting policy with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net loss and loss per share in annual and interim financial statements. SFAS 148 is effective for
fiscal years ending after December 15, 2002. While InsWeb does not plan to change its method of accounting for stock options from the intrinsic method to the fair value method (and therefore,
there is no effect to InsWeb's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows), InsWeb has adopted the disclosure requirements in its annual report for the year ended December 31,
2002.

In
January 2003, in an effort to expand upon and strengthen existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include in its financial statements the assets,
liabilities and activities of another entity, the FASB has issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." The objective of FIN 46 is not to restrict the
use of variable interest entities but to improve financial reporting by companies involved with variable interest entities. Until now, one company generally has included another entity in its
consolidated financial statements only if it controlled the entity through voting interests. FIN 46 changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company
is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. The consolidation requirements
of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was
established. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that FIN 46 may have, if any, on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Factors That May Affect Our Future Performance

Our future business, operating results and financial condition are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including those described
below.

Our business is difficult to evaluate because we did not begin to generate significant revenues from our core business until 1998

We were incorporated in February 1995, but we did not begin to generate significant transaction fees from our online marketplace until 1998. Our limited
operating history makes an evaluation of our future prospects very difficult. An investor in our common stock must consider the uncertainties frequently encountered by early stage companies in new and
rapidly evolving markets. These uncertainties include:



To
address these uncertainties, we must, among other things:



Our
business strategy may not be successful and we may not be able to successfully address these uncertainties. Moreover, our ability to take the foregoing steps may be hampered by our
limited financial resources should we fail to rapidly increase revenues or should increased revenues be more than offset by increased operating expenses.

28

---

We have a history of losses, we expect future losses, and we may not achieve or maintain profitability

Given planned investment levels, our ability to achieve profitability will depend upon our ability to generate and sustain substantially increased revenues. As a
result, we believe that we will incur operating losses at least through the year ending 2003. We incurred operating losses of $15.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2002,
$46.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2001, and $53.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000. As of December 31, 2002, our accumulated deficit was
$174.8 million. Our operating results for future periods are subject to numerous uncertainties, and we may not achieve sufficient revenues to become profitable. Even if we achieve
profitability, we may not sustain or increase profitability on a quarterly or annual basis in the future. If we are unable to achieve profitability, or if our profitability is delayed we may need to
seek additional financing to continue our business operations. Such financing could be on terms that are dilutive to our existing stockholders or could involve the issuance of securities that have
rights and preferences that are senior to those associated with our common stock. Moreover, if such financing were not available or were available only upon terms that were unacceptable to us, we
could be required to significantly curtail our operations.

Our future revenues are unpredictable, our operating results are likely to fluctuate from quarter to quarter, and if we fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or
investors, our stock price could decline significantly

Due to our limited operating history, the emerging nature of the market in which we compete and the high proportion of our revenues that are derived from consumer
traffic on our website, our future revenues are inherently difficult to forecast. We believe that period-to-period comparisons of our operating results may not be meaningful,
and you should not rely upon them as an indication of our future performance. Moreover, our expense levels are based largely on our investment plans and estimates of future revenues. We may be unable
to adjust our spending to compensate for an unexpected shortfall in revenues. Accordingly, any significant shortfall in revenues relative to our planned expenditures would harm our results of
operations and could cause our stock price to fall sharply, particularly following quarters in which our operating results fail to meet the expectations of securities analysts or investors.

Factors
that may cause fluctuations in our operating results include the following, many of which are outside our control:



29

---



Seasonality affecting insurance shopping and Internet usage may cause fluctuations in our operating results

We have experienced seasonality in our business associated with general slowness in the insurance industry during the year-end holiday period. We
expect to continue to experience seasonality as our business matures. Because of this seasonality, investors may not be able to predict our annual operating results based on a
quarter-to-quarter comparison of our operating results. We believe seasonality will have an ongoing impact on our business.

Because a significant portion of our revenue is attributable to automobile insurance shopping on our online marketplace, we are especially vulnerable to risks related to the
online market for automobile insurance or the automobile insurance industry generally

Automobile insurance accounted for approximately 83% of our transaction revenues in 2002, approximately 67% in 2001 and approximately 69% in 2000. We anticipate
that automobile insurance will continue to account for a substantial portion of our revenues for the foreseeable future. As a result, if we fail to attract a broad base of consumers to shop for
automobile insurance on our site, or if changes in the automobile insurance industry make electronic commerce a less attractive means to shop for this type of insurance, our ability to generate
revenue will be reduced and our business will be harmed. In addition, property and casualty insurance, including automobile insurance, is subject to operating cycles. During a cycle in which loss
ratios rise, insurance companies may choose to restrict the amount of business they write while they await approval of rate increases from the various state insurance departments. Our business could
be harmed if our participating insurance companies reduce their participation in our online marketplace.

If we are unable to promote our brand and expand our brand recognition, our ability to draw consumers to our website will be limited

A growing number of websites offer services that are similar to and competitive with the services offered on our online insurance marketplace. Therefore, a
positive recognition of our brand is critical to attracting additional consumers to our website, strengthening our relationships with participating insurance companies and attracting new insurance
companies. In order to attract and retain consumers and insurance companies and to promote and maintain our brand, we are continuing our financial commitment to create and maintain brand awareness.
Our current marketing program consists of the maintenance of certain network online relationships and other selective cost effective marketing campaigns, designed to maintain consumer awareness of
InsWeb and our online insurance marketplace. If our marketing efforts do not generate a corresponding increase in revenues or we otherwise fail to successfully promote our brand, or if these efforts
require excessive expenditures, our business will be harmed. Moreover, if visitors to our website do not perceive our existing services or the products and services of our participating insurance
companies to be of high quality, or if we alter or modify our brand image, introduce new services or enter into new business ventures that are not favorably received, the value of our brand could be
harmed.

Our plans to offer additional services could result in significant expenditures, and we may not generate sufficient revenue to offset these expenditures

We intend to offer additional services including, among other things:



We
may not be able to offer these additional services in a cost-effective or timely manner, or these efforts may not increase the overall market acceptance of our products
and services. Expansion of our operations in this manner could also require significant additional expenditures and strain our management, financial and operational resources. The lack of market
acceptance of these efforts, regulatory issues, or our inability to generate enough revenue from these expanded services or products to offset their cost could harm our business.

Competition in the market for online distribution of insurance is intense, and if we are unable to compete effectively with current competitors or new competitors that enter
the market, the fees paid to us by participating insurance companies may fall, the fees charged by online companies with which we have strategic relationships may rise, and our market share may suffer

The online insurance distribution market is a new industry and, like the broader electronic commerce market, is both rapidly evolving and highly competitive.
Increased competition, particularly by companies offering online insurance distribution, could reduce the fees we are able to charge our participating insurance companies or increase the fees we are
required to pay to online companies with which we have strategic relationships, resulting in reduced margins or loss of market share, any of which could harm our business. In addition, our current and
future competitors may be able to:



Accordingly,
we may not be able to maintain or grow consumer traffic to our website and our base of participating insurance companies, our competitors may grow faster than we do, or
companies with whom we have strategic relationships may discontinue their relationships with us, any of which would harm our business.

31

If our participating insurance companies or our insurance agency do not continue to provide high quality products and service to consumers, our brand will be harmed and our
ability to attract consumers to our website will be limited

Our ability to maintain a positive recognition of our brand depends in part on the quality of the products and services consumers receive from our participating
insurance companies or our insurance agency, including timely response to requests for quotes or coverage. If we are unable to provide consumers with high-quality products and services,
the value of our brand may be harmed and the number of consumers using our services may decline. We have from time to time received complaints from consumers who have not received a timely response to
a request for an insurance quote. Although we have taken steps to increase responsiveness to consumer requests, these steps and future efforts we may make may not be successful. In addition, if any of
our major participating insurance companies were to discontinue their business, be downgraded by insurance company rating services or be financially harmed by trends in the insurance industry, our
brand may be harmed.

Our plan to expand our online insurance agency operations will require significant resources and we may not be able to generate sufficient revenues to recover our expenses

Since October 1999, InsWeb has been operating an online insurance agency business. Our online agency receives a commission on the sale and renewal of the
automobile insurance polices sold though its offices. Our plan to expand our online agency operations requires that we attract and retain highly skilled sales agents and customer care personnel. We
face competition from other agencies and insurance companies for these agents. In addition, we will need additional insurance companies to appoint us as an agent and pay us commissions. Although the
agency infrastructure is already in place, integration of additional insurance companies into our online agency operations may take more time and be more expensive than we project. If we are unable to
implement our expansion in a timely and cost-effective manner, we may not be able to recover our costs and our business will be harmed.

Because a limited number of insurance companies account for a majority of our revenues, the loss of a single insurance company relationship could result in a substantial drop
in our revenues

Revenues from Amica, GE Financial Assurance and Kemper Direct accounted for approximately 14%, 14%, and 10%, respectively, of our revenues in 2002. Revenues from
Amica, GE Financial Assurance and AIG accounted for approximately 11%, 11%, and 10%, respectively, of our revenues in 2001, and revenues from State Farm, AIG, and GE Financial Assurance accounted for
approximately 14%, 11% and 9%, respectively, of our revenues in 2000. In May 2000, State Farm discontinued participating in InsWeb's marketplaces for automobile, term life, homeowners,
condominium and renters insurance. Should one or more of our other key insurance company partners cease to participate in our online marketplace, change its underwriting criteria or geographic
coverage in a way that reduces the proportion of consumers that are offered quotes from that insurance company, or suffer a significant decline in its ratings, our operating results could be
materially harmed. Because of the broad market presence of some of our participating insurance companies, we expect to continue to generate a substantial portion of our revenues from a limited number
of insurance companies for the foreseeable future. Although InsWeb continually seeks new insurance companies to participate in the online marketplace, we may be unable to add any new insurance
companies.

32

---

In most jurisdictions, we rely on the participation of a limited number of insurance companies on our online marketplace, and the loss of any of these insurance companies could
make our online marketplace less attractive to consumers

Consumer demand for the services offered on our website in any jurisdiction is substantially dependent upon the participation of competing brand-name
insurance companies offering competitive quotes for a given insurance product in that jurisdiction. Accordingly, the success of our business depends on our ability to attract and retain
well-known insurance companies to participate in our marketplace. Although we currently have relationships with a significant number of insurance companies overall, in individual
jurisdictions where competing quotes for comparable products are available on our online marketplace, the number of companies offering quotes ranges from one to 14. If we are unable to increase the
number of insurance companies that participate in our online marketplace, particularly in the jurisdictions where we currently offer comparable insurance products from only three or fewer insurance
companies, we may not be able to attract additional consumers or may lose our existing consumers to other online competitors offering a wider variety of insurance companies. At December 31
2002, there were 17 jurisdictions in which three or fewer insurance companies were offering automobile insurance quotes on our online marketplace. No automobile insurance quotes are available in New
Jersey, North Carolina and Massachusetts as of December 31, 2002. If any insurance company participating in a number of jurisdictions discontinued or significantly reduced its participation in
our online marketplace, the attractiveness of the marketplace to consumers in these jurisdictions would be greatly diminished.

In
addition, we believe that there is a general trend toward consolidation in the insurance industry. In the jurisdictions where we currently offer comparable insurance products from
three or fewer insurance companies, the loss of one or more of these companies, whether due to industry consolidation or otherwise, could materially reduce the selection of insurance companies
available to consumers on our website, thereby substantially reducing the attraction of our online marketplace to consumers.

We may have difficulty integrating new insurance companies into our online marketplace or agency operations, which could harm our ability to offer improved comparison-shopping
opportunities and thus limit the attractiveness of our service to consumers

Integration of an insurance company into our online marketplace requires a significant commitment of time and resources on our part and on the part of the
insurance company, and is a technologically difficult process. This integration process typically takes from three to six months to complete and typically requires us to expend between 160 and 2,000
man-hours. To develop company-sponsored quotes for consumers, the integration requires either the development of a customized interface with the insurance company's own rating system,
accessing a third-party rating engine of the insurance company's choice, or adding the insurance company's rating information into InsWeb's proprietary rating engines. Though integration into our
agency operations may require fewer resources to implement than integration of an insurance company into our online marketplace, potential participating insurance companies may not be willing to
invest the time and resources necessary to achieve this integration, or we may not be able to overcome the technological difficulties associated with, or devote the time and resources necessary to,
successfully integrate the insurance company into our online marketplace or our agency operations.

33

---

We do not have exclusive relationships or long-term contracts with insurance companies, which may limit our ability to retain these insurance companies as
participants in our marketplace and maintain the attractiveness of our services to consumers

We do not have an exclusive relationship with any of the insurance companies whose insurance products are offered on our online marketplace, and thus, consumers
may obtain quotes and coverage from these insurance companies without using our website. Our participating insurance companies offer their products directly to consumers through insurance agents, mass
marketing campaigns or through other traditional methods of insurance distribution. These insurance companies can also offer their products and services over the Internet, either directly to consumers
or through one or more of our online competitors, or both. In addition, most of our agreements with our participating insurance companies are cancelable at the option of either party upon
90 days' notice or less. We have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, reductions in the level of participation in our marketplace or complete termination by participating
insurance companies. These reductions in participation, terminations, or an inability to attract additional insurance companies to our marketplace could materially affect our revenues and harm our
business.

The outcome and impact of the securities class action lawsuit involving InsWeb is uncertain

A class action lawsuit was filed on December 5, 2001 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of InsWeb
common stock alleging violations of federal securities laws. The case is brought purportedly on behalf of all persons who purchased InsWeb common stock from July 22, 1999 through
December 6, 2000. The complaint names as defendants InsWeb, certain officers and directors, and three underwriters for InsWeb's initial public offering in July 1999. The complaint
alleges violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on the grounds that the prospectus incorporated in the registration statements for the offering failed to
disclose, among other things, that (i) the underwriters had solicited and received excessive and undisclosed commissions from certain investors in exchange for which the underwriters allocated
to those investors substantial blocks of the stock sold in the initial public offering, and (ii) the underwriters had entered into agreements with customers whereby the underwriters agreed to
allocate shares of the stock sold in the initial public offering to those customers in exchange for which the customers agreed to purchase additional shares of InsWeb stock in the aftermarket at
pre-determined prices that were above the initial public offering price. No specific damages are claimed. In February 2003, the court dismissed the claims alleging violations of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 but allowed the plaintiffs to proceed with the remaining claims. However, InsWeb believes that the remaining allegations against InsWeb and its current and former
officers and directors are without merit and intends to contest them vigorously. The litigation is in the preliminary stage, and InsWeb cannot predict its outcome. The litigation process is inherently
uncertain. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse effect on InsWeb's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Traffic on our website is heavily dependent on our online relationships. These relationships may not generate sufficient revenues to justify the fees we pay to online
companies. Further, our consumer traffic may decline in the event an online relationship is unsuccessful

We rely on relationships with a variety of Internet portals, financial institutions, and other online companies to attract consumers to our website. In a typical
arrangement, the online company includes a "link" on its website on which a user can click to jump to our website or to a site that we operate under the online company's name; as part of the
arrangement, we typically pay the online company a portion of the resulting transaction fees and in some cases a fixed fee. These relationships may not continue to generate a substantial amount of new
traffic on our website, or the revenues generated by these relationships may be insufficient to justify our payment obligations. We have experienced occasional fluctuations in the traffic from our
online partners as a result of redesigns of their websites or being outbid for promotions by other online insurance providers. Furthermore, the value of these relationships is based on the continued
positive market presence, reputation and growth of these online companies' websites and services. Any decline in the market presence, business or reputation of these online companies' websites and
services will reduce the value of these relationships to us and could harm our business.

34

---

For
the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, we received approximately 11%, 32% and 25%, respectively, of our website traffic from the major Internet portals
Yahoo! Inc., MSN and AOL. We did not renew our agreement with MSN for fiscal 2002, and our status as exclusive provider to Yahoo! and AOL was converted to non-exclusive, effective
November 1, 2001 and January 1, 2002, respectively. Additionally, during 2002 we significantly expanded our on-line marketing relationship with LowerMyBills.com, Inc.,
whereby they delivered approximately 34% of our website traffic for the year ended December 31, 2002. Our ability to increase our revenues will depend, in part, on our ability to generate
increased traffic to our website through these significant online relationships.

Most
of our relationships with online companies are terminable by either party on 30 to 90 days' notice. We may not be able to negotiate or renew marketing agreements with online
companies on terms that are acceptable to us. The termination, non-renewal or renewal on unfavorable terms of a relationship from which we generate significant traffic to our website would
harm our business. If the recent trend of failing online companies continues, the traffic currently being received as well as the ability to attract new consumer traffic to our site could be harmed.
Additionally, an online company's failure to maintain efficient and uninterrupted operation of its computer and communications hardware systems would likely reduce the amount of traffic we receive at
our site, harming our business.

Laws and regulations that govern the insurance industry could expose us, or our participating insurance companies, our officers, or agents with whom we contract, to legal
penalties if we fail to comply, and could require changes to our business

We perform functions for licensed insurance companies and are, therefore, required to comply with a complex set of rules and regulations that often vary from
state to state. If we fail to comply with these rules and regulations, we, an insurance company doing business with us, our officers, or agents with whom we contract, could be subject to various
sanctions, including censure, fines, a cease-and-desist order or other penalties. This risk, as well as changes in the regulatory climate or the enforcement or interpretation
of existing law, could expose us to additional costs, including indemnification of participating insurance companies for their costs, and could require changes to our business or otherwise harm our
business. Furthermore, because the application of online commerce to the consumer insurance market is relatively new, the impact of current or future regulations on InsWeb's business is difficult to
anticipate.

Our intended expansion of our business, including, in particular, our agency activities, will subject us to additional regulations which may delay or prevent our expansion and
harm our business

Over time, we intend to expand our operations to include new products and services and to offer existing and new products in new jurisdictions, which may require
us to comply with additional laws and regulations. If we fail to adequately comply with these laws and regulations, our ability to offer some of our products or services in a particular jurisdiction
could be delayed or prevented and our business could be harmed. Compliance with these laws and regulations and those of other jurisdictions
into which we expand may require us to obtain appropriate business licenses, make necessary filings and obtain necessary bonds, appoint foreign agents and make periodic business reports.

35

If we are unable to safeguard the security and privacy of consumers' and participating insurance companies' confidential data, consumers and insurance companies may not use our
services and our business may be harmed

A significant barrier to electronic commerce and communications is the secure transmission of personally identifiable information of Internet users as well as
other confidential information over public networks. If any compromise or breach of security were to occur, it could harm our reputation and expose us to possible liability. A party who is able to
circumvent our security measures could misappropriate proprietary information or cause interruptions in our operations. We may be required to make significant expenditures to protect against security
breaches or to alleviate problems caused by any breaches. To date, we have experienced no breaches in our network security. We rely on encryption and authentication technology licensed from third
parties to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect secure transmission of confidential information, such as names, addresses, Social Security and credit card numbers, user names
and passwords and insurance company rate information. Advances in computer capabilities, new discoveries in the field of cryptography, or other events or developments could result in a compromise or
breach of the algorithms we use to protect consumers' and insurance companies' confidential information.

Uncertainty in the marketplace regarding the use of Internet users' personal information, or proposed legislation limiting such use, could reduce demand for our services and
result in increased expenses

Concern among consumers and legislators regarding the use of personal information gathered from Internet users could create uncertainty in the marketplace. This
could reduce demand for our services, increase the cost of doing business as a result of litigation costs or increased service delivery costs, or otherwise harms our business. Laws have been enacted
at both the federal and state levels that limit the uses of personally identifiable information of Internet users gathered online or require online services to establish privacy policies. In addition,
the Federal Trade Commission has adopted regulations affecting the information gathering practices of online companies, and it has brought suit against several high profile companies for failing to
adhere to the privacy policies posted on their websites. Many state insurance codes limit the collection and use of personal information by insurance companies, agents, or insurance service
organizations. Failure to adhere to the growing body of privacy regulations could result in administrative actions or private litigation and harm our business.

System failures could reduce or limit traffic on our website and harm our ability to generate revenue

Since launching our online marketplace, we have experienced occasional minor system failures or outages that have resulted in the online marketplace being out of
service for a period ranging from several minutes to three hours while our technicians brought backup systems online. We may experience further system failures or outages in the future that could
disrupt the operation of our website and could harm our business. Our revenues depend in large part on the volume of traffic on our website and, more particularly, on the number of insurance quotes
generated by our website in response to consumer inquiries. Accordingly, the performance, reliability and availability of our website, quote-generating systems and network infrastructure are critical
to our reputation and our ability to attract a high volume of traffic to our website and to attract and retain participating insurance companies. Moreover, we believe that consumers who have a
negative experience with an electronic commerce website may be reluctant to return to that site. Thus, a significant failure or outage affecting our systems could result in severe
long-term damage to our business.

36

---

Our website may not perform at levels that are satisfactory to consumers

We are continually enhancing and expanding our technology, quote generating systems, network infrastructure and other technologies to accommodate the volume of
traffic on our website. We may be unsuccessful in these efforts or we may be unable to accurately project the rate or timing in the volume of traffic on our website. In addition, we cannot predict
whether additional network capacity will be available from third party suppliers, as we need it. Also, our network or our suppliers' networks might be unable to timely achieve or maintain a
sufficiently high capacity of data transmission to timely process orders or effectively download data, especially if our website traffic increases. Our failure to achieve or maintain high capacity
data transmission could significantly reduce consumer demand for our services.

Our facilities and systems are vulnerable to natural disasters and other unexpected losses, and we may not have adequate insurance to cover such losses

Our computer hardware operations are located in leased facilities in Gold River, California. A third-party service provider located in Rancho Cordova, California
maintains a full backup system. If both of these locations experienced a system failure, the performance of our website would be harmed. These systems are also vulnerable to damage from fire, power
loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins, natural disasters and similar events. If we seek to replicate our systems at other locations, we will face a number of technical challenges,
particularly with respect to database replications, which we may not be able to address successfully. Although we carry property and business interruption insurance, our coverage may not be adequate
to compensate us for all losses that may occur. Our servers may also be vulnerable to computer viruses, physical or electronic break-ins and similar disruptions.

We may experience technological problems or service interruptions with individual insurance companies, which could harm the quality of service on our website

Several of our participating insurance companies have chosen a technical solution that requires that our website servers communicate with these insurance
companies' computer systems in order to perform the underwriting and risk analysis and rating functions required to generate quotes. Thus, the availability of quotes from a given insurance company may
depend in large part upon the reliability of that insurance company's own computer systems, over which we have no control. A malfunction in an insurance company's computer system or in the Internet
connection between our website servers and the insurance company's system, or an excess of data traffic on that system, could result in a delay in the delivery of e-mail quotes or could
cause an insurance company that provides instant quotes to go offline until the problem can be remedied. Moreover, the malfunction could cause the insurance company to dispute the number of leads it
received from InsWeb. Further, a computer malfunction could cause an insurance company to quote erroneous rates, in which case the insurance company would be required to take itself offline until the
malfunction can be corrected. Any technological problems with or interruption of communications with an insurance company's computer systems could materially reduce the number of competing insurance
companies available to provide quotes, and therefore the level of service perceived by consumers, on our online marketplace.

37

---

We rely on the services of our executive officers and other key personnel, whose knowledge of our business and the insurance industry and technical expertise would be extremely
difficult to replace

Our future success is substantially dependent on the continued services and continuing contributions of our senior management and other key personnel,
particularly Hussein A. Enan, Chairman of our Board, and Mark P. Guthrie, our President and Chief Executive Officer, and the loss of the services of any of our executive officers or other key
employees could harm our business.

We
have no long-term employment agreements with any of our key personnel, although Mr. Guthrie is entitled to certain severance benefits should his employment be
involuntarily terminated. We maintain a $2 million life insurance policy on each of Mr. Enan and Mr. Guthrie that names us as the beneficiary, but maintain no similar insurance on
any of our other key employees. Additionally, InsWeb has granted stock options as incentives to executive officers and new employees, including Mr. Guthrie, and certain other key personnel. As
the value of these incentives are highly dependent on an increase in the market price of our common stock, we may be unable to retain such key employees, nor retain or recruit other officers and key
employees in the future.

Because of intense competition for personnel, we may not be able to recruit or retain necessary personnel, which could slow the process of adding new insurance companies to our
website or otherwise harm our business

Our future success depends on our continuing ability to attract, retain and motivate highly skilled employees, particularly with respect to technology development
and implementation, including integration of insurance companies into our online marketplace. If we are not able to attract and retain new personnel, particularly within our technology development and
implementation team, our business will be harmed. The implementation of new insurance companies on our site is a technologically complex and labor-intensive process. Accordingly, any difficulty we
face in attracting and retaining talented development and implementation personnel could slow the process of adding new insurance companies to our online marketplace and therefore limit our ability to
increase the attractiveness of our services to consumers. As competition for personnel is intense, we may be unable to retain our key employees or attract, assimilate or retain other highly qualified
employees in the future. We have from time to time experienced, and we may experience in the future, difficulty in hiring and retaining employees with appropriate qualifications.

If the Internet does not continue to develop and reliably support the demands placed on it by electronic commerce and other high volume applications, our business will suffer

The Internet may not become a viable medium for commerce or comparison insurance shopping for a number of reasons, including potentially inadequate development of
the necessary network infrastructure or delayed development of enabling technologies and performance improvements. If the Internet continues to experience significant growth in the number of users,
levels of traffic or networks' capacities for transmitting large amounts of data, the Internet's infrastructure may not be able to support the demands placed upon it. The Internet has experienced a
variety of outages and other delays as a result of damage to portions of its infrastructure, and it could face additional outages and delays in the future. These outages and delays could reduce the
level of traffic and therefore the number of consumer insurance inquiries on our website. In addition, the Internet could lose its viability due to delays in the development or adoption of new
standards and protocols required to handle increased levels of Internet activity, or due to increased governmental regulation. Changes in or insufficient availability of telecommunications services to
support the Internet could also result in slower response times and reduced use of the Internet.

38

---

Regulation of the Internet is unsettled, and future regulations could inhibit the growth of the Internet and otherwise harm our business

The laws governing the Internet remain largely unsettled, even in areas where there has been some legislative action. Furthermore, the growth and development of
the market for electronic commerce
may prompt the enactment of more stringent consumer protection laws that may impose additional burdens on companies conducting business online. For example, many states have adopted laws or
regulations relating to unsolicited commercial email or "spam". These laws typically prohibit the sending of a commercial email to a recipient unless the recipient has consented in some manner.
However, there are inconsistencies in these state laws that make it difficult to implement national email-based marketing campaigns. These laws may inhibit the growth of the Internet as a medium for
commerce and comparison insurance shopping, which could, in turn, decrease demand for our services, increase our cost of doing business, or otherwise harm our business. In addition, applicability to
the Internet of existing laws governing issues including property ownership, copyrights and other intellectual property issues, taxation, libel and personal privacy is uncertain. The vast majority of
these laws was adopted prior to the advent of the Internet and related technologies and, as a result, do not contemplate or address the unique issues of the Internet and related technologies.

Any acquisitions that we undertake could be difficult to integrate, disrupt our business, dilute stockholder value and harm our operating results

We may acquire or make investments in complementary businesses, technologies, services or products if appropriate opportunities arise. The process of integrating
any acquired business, technology, service or product into our business and operations may result in unforeseen operating difficulties and expenditures. Integration of an acquired company also may
consume much of our management's time and attention that would otherwise be available for ongoing development of our business. Moreover, the anticipated benefits of any acquisition may not be
realized. We may be unable to identify, negotiate or finance future acquisitions successfully, or to integrate successfully any acquisitions with our current business. Future acquisitions could result
in potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities or the incurrence of debt, contingent liabilities or amortization expenses related to goodwill and other intangible assets, any of which could
harm our business.

We may be unable to protect our intellectual property rights

We regard our intellectual property as critical to our success. We rely on trademark, copyright and trade secret laws to protect our proprietary rights. We have
registered the INSWEB mark in the United States, Japan, France, Germany, South Korea, Japan and the United Kingdom and applications are pending in several other countries. Other United States and
worldwide trademark applications include, but are not limited to, eAgent, InsWeb.com, Powered by InsWeb, and Where You and Your Insurance Really Click. We have patent applications on file in the
United States. Our trademark registration and patent applications may not be approved or granted, or, if granted, may be successfully challenged by others or invalidated through administrative process
or litigation. Notwithstanding these laws, we may be unsuccessful in protecting our intellectual property rights or in obtaining patents or registered trademarks for which we apply.

39

---

We may be subject to claims for infringement of intellectual property, with or without merit, which could be costly to defend or settle

We may from time to time be subject to claims of infringement of other parties' proprietary rights or claims that our own trademarks, patents or other
intellectual property rights are invalid. We have been subject to infringement claims in the ordinary course of business, including claims of alleged infringement of the patent and trademark rights of
third parties by companies and us with which we have business relationships. Any claims of this type, with or without merit, could be time-consuming to defend, result in costly litigation,
divert management attention and resources or require us to enter into royalty or license agreements. License agreements may not be available on reasonable terms, if at all, and the assertion or
prosecution of any infringement claims could significantly harm our business.

We incorporate third-party technologies and services into our online marketplace, and if the providers of these technologies and services fail in a timely manner to develop,
license or support technology necessary to our services, market acceptance of our online marketplace could be harmed

We have incorporated technology developed by third parties into our online marketplace, and we will continue to incorporate third-party technology in our future
products and services. We have limited control over whether or when these third-party technologies will be developed or enhanced. If a third-party fails to timely develop, license or support
technology necessary to our services, market acceptance of our online marketplace could be harmed.

Our stock price has fluctuated widely, and Internet stocks in general have been extremely volatile

The trading price of our common stock has been highly volatile and may be significantly affected by factors including actual or anticipated fluctuations in our
operating results, new products or new contracts by us or our competitors, loss of key customers, conditions and trends in the electronic commerce and insurance industries, changes in financial
estimates by securities analysts, general market conditions and other factors. The trading prices of many Internet stocks have experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations
often have been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of these companies. These fluctuations may continue and could harm our stock price. Any negative change in the public's
perception of the prospects of Internet or electronic commerce companies could also depress our stock price regardless of our results.

Delaware law and our charter documents contain provisions that could discourage or prevent a potential takeover, even if such a transaction would be beneficial to our
stockholders

Provisions of Delaware law and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws could make more difficult the acquisition of us by means of a tender offer, a proxy
contest, or otherwise, and the removal of incumbent officers and directors.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

InsWeb is exposed to financial market risks including changes in interest rates and, to a lesser degree, foreign currency exchange rates. The fair value of
InsWeb's investment portfolio or related income would not be significantly impacted by either a 10% increase or decrease in interest rates due mainly to the short term nature of the major portion of
InsWeb's investment portfolio. InsWeb's interest income is sensitive to changes in the general level of U.S. interest rates, particularly since all of our funds are invested in instruments with
maturities currently less than one year. InsWeb's policy is to limit the risk of principal loss and ensure the safety of invested funds by limiting market and credit risk. Funds in excess of current
operating requirements are invested in obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies and investment grade obligations of state and local governments and large corporations.

The
table below represents carrying amounts and related weighted-average interest rates of InsWeb's investment portfolio at December 31, 2002 (in thousands, except interest
rates):

InsWeb's
revenue and capital spending is transacted in U.S. dollars. InsWeb's investment in Finance All K.K. and the note payable to a strategic partner and stockholder is denominated in
Japanese Yen. InsWeb has not engaged in hedging transactions to reduce its exposure to fluctuations that may arise from changes in foreign exchange rates. Based on InsWeb's overall currency rate
exposure at December 31, 2002, a near-term 10% appreciation or depreciation would have an immaterial affect on InsWeb's financial condition, operating results or cash flows.

Report of Ernst & Young LLP, Independent Auditors

Board of Directors and Stockholders of
InsWeb Corporation

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of InsWeb Corporation as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated
statements of operations, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the years then ended. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a) for the years ended
December 31, 2002 and 2001. These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
and schedule based on our audits. The financial statements of InsWeb Corporation for the year ended December 31, 2000 were audited by other auditors whose report dated January 31, 2001,
expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements and included an explanatory paragraph that describes a change in the Company's revenue recognition policies to apply the accounting and disclosure
provisions of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements," as discussed in Note 2 to these financial
statements.

We
conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In
our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of InsWeb Corporation at December 31, 2002
and 2001, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Also, in our
opinion, the related financial statement schedule for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, when considered in relation to the
basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein.

INSWEB CORPORATION        NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.    Business of InsWeb

InsWeb Corporation operates an online insurance marketplace that enables consumers to comparison shop online and obtain insurance company-sponsored quotes for a
variety of insurance products, including automobile, term life and homeowners. InsWeb's marketplace electronically matches consumers and insurance companies. InsWeb has combined extensive knowledge of
the insurance industry, technological expertise and close relationships with a significant number of insurance companies to develop an integrated online marketplace. InsWeb's marketplace enables
consumers to research insurance-related topics, search for, analyze and compare insurance products, apply for and receive insurance company-sponsored quotes for actual coverage and to purchase
automobile insurance coverage through InsWeb's insurance agency.

InsWeb
is subject to all of the risks inherent in an early stage business in the electronic commerce industry and special risks related to the online insurance industry. These risks
include, but are not limited to, a limited operating history, limited management resources, dependence upon consumer acceptance of the Internet, Internet related security risks, the changing nature of
the electronic commerce industry, and variations in consumer traffic and insurance company participation. Due to the foregoing and other factors, InsWeb's future operating results may be materially
affected.

2.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of InsWeb Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary, InsWeb Insurance Services, Inc. ("InsWeb"
or the "Company"). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.



The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.



InsWeb considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Investments with
maturities greater than three months at the date of purchase but less than one year are classified as short-term investments. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which
approximates fair value, given the relatively short duration of the underlying securities.



The Company recognizes revenue when (i) persuasive evidence of an arrangement between the Company and the customer exists, (ii) delivery of the
product to the customer has occurred or service has been provided to the customer, (iii) the price to the customer is fixed or determinable and (iv) collectibility of the sales price is
reasonably assured.

F-8

---

Transaction
fee revenue from qualified consumer leads is recognized when such lead is delivered to an insurance company customer. Transaction fee revenue from closed policies is
recognized when the insurance company notifies InsWeb that it has sold an insurance policy from a qualified consumer lead. Transaction fees that are contingent on the delivery of certain minimum
clickthroughs are deferred until all minimums have been met.

Agency
commission revenue is based on a percentage of the insurance policy premium related to each insurance policy sale where InsWeb has acted as the agent. Agency commission revenue is
recognized on the effective date of the policy, less an estimate for early cancellations of the underlying insurance policies. InsWeb is also entitled to a commission when the insurance policy is
renewed.

Prior
to January 1, 2000, InsWeb recognized development fee revenue from the design and development of customized interfaces when the development work was completed and the
insurance company's integration with InsWeb's site became operational (the "Live Date"). Since the adoption of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial
Statements" ("SAB 101"), which was effective January 1, 2000, InsWeb continues to defer development fee revenue until the Live Date but now recognizes such development fee revenue ratably over
the estimated life of the carrier relationship, typically three years. Maintenance revenue is recognized ratably over the term of the customer agreement. Deferred revenue represents prepayment for
services to be rendered in the future.



Effective July 1, 2000, InsWeb adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 00-2, "Accounting for Web Site Development
Costs" ("EITF 00-2"), which provides guidance on accounting for costs incurred to develop, enhance, and upgrade a website. For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, InsWeb
capitalized $0 and $831,000 in such costs and recorded amortization of $421,000 and $1,517,000, respectively. All other development costs not qualifying for capitalization under EITF 00-2
are expensed as incurred. Capitalized costs are amortized over the estimated useful life of the related upgrade and enhancement, generally two years.



InsWeb believes that relationships with high-profile online companies can drive significant traffic to its site. InsWeb seeks out relationships with
companies whose websites feature a high volume of traffic or a substantive focus that is related to the purchase of insurance coverage, such as sites related to automobiles, homes or personal
finances. Agreements with these online companies typically provide that InsWeb pay the online company a portion of the resulting revenue (or transaction fees) and in some cases a fixed fee. Such fees
are expensed in the period the related qualified consumer lead is delivered to an insurance company customer. Fixed fee payments are capitalized and expensed on a straight-line basis over
the term of the agreement, or ratably based on delivery of the specified
consumer traffic targets, whichever method results in a greater expense during the period. Payments based on per unit transactions are expensed in the period in which the consumer traffic occurred and
are included as a component of sales and marketing expense in the period.

Costs related to advertising and promotions of products are charged to sales and marketing expense as incurred. Direct marketing charged to expense for the years
ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 were $10,985,000, $16,664,000 and $24,168,000, respectively.



Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation on computer and office equipment, furniture and fixtures and purchased
software is calculated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, generally two to five years. Amortization on leasehold improvements is calculated using
the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the improvements or the remaining term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged
to expense as incurred.

InsWeb
evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" ("SFAS 144"). SFAS 144 requires the recognition of impairment losses related to long-lived assets in the event the net carrying
value of such assets exceeds fair value. InsWeb assesses the impairment of its long-lived assets annually or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an
asset may not be recoverable.



The promissory note payable to a strategic partner and stockholder is remeasured from Japanese yen into U.S. dollars in accordance with Statement of Financial
Accounting Standard No. 52, "Foreign Currency Translation." Accordingly, it is remeasured at the current exchange rate as of the applicable balance sheet date and the resulting foreign currency
gain (loss) is included in the consolidated
statements of operations as a component of interest and other income, net. See further discussion of InsWeb's investment in Finance All K.K. in Note 7.

In
March 2001, the Company exchanged its equity interest in InsWeb Japan K.K. for a non-controlling interest in Finance All K.K. At December 31, 2002, InsWeb's
ownership interest in Finance All K.K. was approximately 9%. Through the date of the exchange, the Company translated its investment in InsWeb Japan K.K. at the applicable balance sheet rate and
recorded the resulting translation adjustment in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of stockholders' equity. Subsequent the exchange, the Company revalues its
investment in Finance All K.K. at the applicable balance sheet rate and the resulting foreign currency gain (loss) is included in the consolidated statement of operations as a component of interest
and other income, net.

The
Company recognized foreign currency gains of $48,000, $97,000 and $152,000 for the years ending December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

F-10

Financial instruments that potentially subject InsWeb to concentration of credit risk, as defined by Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 105,
"Disclosure of Information about Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk and Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk," consist principally of cash, cash
equivalents, short-term investments and accounts receivable. InsWeb deposits its cash and cash equivalents with various domestic financial institutions. Such deposits may exceed federal
deposit insurance limits.

InsWeb's
short-term investments consist of diversified investment grade securities. InsWeb's investment policy limits the amount of credit exposure to investments in any one
issue, and InsWeb believes no significant concentration of credit risk exists with respect to these investments.

InsWeb's
customer base is dispersed across many different geographic areas, and most customers are in the insurance industry in the United States. Collection of trade receivables may be
affected by changes in economic or other industry conditions and may, accordingly, impact InsWeb's overall credit risk. InsWeb performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and generally does
not require collateral. InsWeb reviews the need for allowances for potential credit losses based on historical losses, and records a provision when collectibility is uncertain. The Company has not
experienced significant credit losses to date. Generally, receivables are due 30 days from the invoice date and are considered past due after this date.



For the year ended December 31, 2002, three customers (Amica, GE Financial Assurance and Kemper Direct) accounted for 14%, 14% and 10% of total revenues,
respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2001, three customers (Amica, GE Financial Assurance and AIG) accounted for 11%, 11%, and 10% of total revenues, respectively. For the year ended
December 31, 2000, two customers (State Farm and AIG) accounted for 14% and 11% of total revenues, respectively. At December 31, 2002 and 2001 one customer accounted for 21% and 25% of
accounts receivable, respectively.



We rely on relationships with Internet portals, financial institutions, and other online companies to attract consumers to our website. In a typical arrangement,
the online company includes a "link" on its website on which a user can click to jump to our website or to a site that we operate under the online company's name; as part of the arrangement, we
typically pay the online company a portion of the resulting transaction fees and in some cases a fixed fee. These relationships may not continue to generate a substantial amount of new traffic on our
website, or the revenues generated by these relationships may be insufficient to justify our payment obligations. We have experienced occasional fluctuations in the traffic from our online partners as
a result of redesigns of their websites or being outbid for promotions by other online insurance providers. Furthermore, the value of these relationships is based on the continued positive market
presence, reputation and growth of these online companies' websites and services. Any decline in the market presence, business or reputation of these online companies' websites and services will
reduce the value of these relationships to us and could harm our business.

F-11

---

For
the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, we received approximately 11%, 32% and 25%, respectively, of our website traffic from a combination of the major Internet
portals Yahoo! Inc., MSN and AOL. We did not renew our agreement with MSN for fiscal 2002, and our status as exclusive provider to Yahoo! and AOL was converted to non-exclusive,
effective November 1, 2001 and January 1, 2002, respectively. Additionally, during 2002 we significantly expanded our on-line marketing relationship with
LowerMyBills.com, Inc., whereby they delivered approximately 34% of our website traffic for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Most
of our relationships with online companies are terminable by either party on 30 to 90 days' notice. We may not be able to negotiate or renew marketing agreements with online
companies on terms that
are acceptable to us. The termination, non-renewal or renewal on unfavorable terms of a relationship from which we generate significant traffic to our website would harm our business. If
the recent trend of failing online companies continues, the traffic currently being received as well as the ability to attract new consumer traffic to our site could be harmed. Additionally, an online
company's failure to maintain efficient and uninterrupted operation of its computer and communications hardware systems would likely reduce the amount of traffic we receive at our site, harming our
business.



Basic earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is a measure of the
potential dilution that would occur if preferred stock had been converted and stock options and warrants had been exercised. Potentially dilutive securities have been excluded from the computation of
diluted net loss per share, as their effect would be antidilutive.



Other comprehensive income (loss) includes foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains (losses) on investments. There were no other
comprehensive income (loss) items for the year ended December 31, 2002.



At December 31, 2002, InsWeb has two stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 12. InsWeb accounts for these
plans under the recognition and measurement principles of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations ("APB 25"). Under
APB 25, stock-based compensation expense is based on the difference, if any, between the fair value of InsWeb's stock and the exercise price of the option on the measurement date, which is typically
the date of grant.

InsWeb
accounts for options granted to non-employees in accordance with the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force Issue No. 96-18, "Accounting for
Equity Instruments that are Issued to Other Than Employees for Acquiring, or in Conjunction with Selling Goods and Services." Under these provisions, options are recorded at their estimated fair value
on the measurement date.

The
following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share if InsWeb had applied the fair value recognition provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement
No. 123, ("SFAS 123") "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," to stock-based employee compensation.

Option
valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions. Because InsWeb's employee and director stock options have characteristics significantly different from those
of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a
reliable 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 over the options' vesting period. The above pro forma disclosures are not necessarily representative of the effects on reported income or loss for future periods as
additional grants are made each year and options vest over several years.



InsWeb operates in one segment, business-to-consumer electronic insurance services. InsWeb markets its online marketplace in the United
States. The Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the Chief Operating Decision Maker because he has final authority over resource allocation decisions and performance assessment.



In April 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 145 ("SFAS 145"),
the "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 62, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." SFAS 145 will require gains and losses on extinguishments of
debt to be classified as income or loss from continuing operations rather than as extraordinary items. SFAS 145 will be effective for InsWeb's fiscal year beginning January 1, 2003. Upon
the effective date of SFAS 145, the extraordinary gain of $10,611,000 recorded in connection with the amendment of the license and distribution agreement with Intuit (see Note 10) will
be reclassified to other income. Except for this reclassification, the adoption of SFAS 145 is not expected to affect InsWeb's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In
November 2002, the Emerging Issues Task Force reached a consensus on Issue 00-21 ("EITF 00-21"), which addresses how to account for arrangements that
may involve the delivery or performance of multiple products, services, and/or rights to use assets. This issue addresses how to account for these multiple-element revenue arrangements and focuses on
when a revenue arrangement should be separated into components or deliverables, or alternatively, when smaller deliverables or elements should be combined for purposes of recognizing revenue. EITF
00-21 will be applicable to agreements entered into in fiscal periods beginning after June 15, 2003, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect
that EITF 00-21 may have, if any, on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

In
December 2002, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Statement No. ("SFAS 148") "Accounting for Stock-Based CompensationTransition and
Disclosure." SFAS 148 amends
SFAS 123 to provide alternative methods of transition to SFAS 123's fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation. SFAS 148 also amends the disclosure provisions of
SFAS 123 and APB Opinion No. 28, "Interim Financial Reporting," to require disclosure in the summary of significant accounting policies of the effects of an entity's accounting policy
with respect to stock-based employee compensation on reported net loss and loss per share in annual and interim financial statements. SFAS 148 is effective for fiscal years ending after
December 15, 2002. While InsWeb does not plan to change its method of accounting for stock options from the intrinsic method to the fair value method (and therefore, there is no effect to
InsWeb's results of operations, financial condition or cash flows), InsWeb has adopted the disclosure requirements in its annual report for the year ended December 31, 2002.

In
January 2003, in an effort to expand upon and strengthen existing accounting guidance that addresses when a company should include in its financial statements the assets,
liabilities and activities of another entity, the FASB has issued Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN 46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." The objective of FIN 46 is not to restrict the
use of variable interest entities but to improve financial reporting by companies involved with variable interest entities. Until now, one company generally has included another entity in its
consolidated financial statements only if it controlled the entity through voting interests. FIN 46 changes that by requiring a variable interest entity to be consolidated by a company if that company
is subject to a majority of the risk of loss from the variable interest entity's activities or entitled to receive a majority of the entity's residual returns or both. The consolidation requirements
of FIN 46 apply immediately to variable interest entities created after January 31, 2003. The consolidation requirements apply to older entities in the first fiscal year or interim period
beginning after June 15, 2003. Certain of the disclosure requirements apply in all financial statements issued after January 31, 2003, regardless of when the variable interest entity was
established. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that FIN 46 may have, if any, on its results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.



Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

InsWeb
accounts for its short-term investments under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities" ("SFAS 115"). SFAS 115 requires the classification of investments in debt and equity securities with readily determinable fair values as
"held-to-maturity," "available-for-sale," or "trading." Management determines the appropriate classification of its debt securities at the time of
purchase and reevaluates such designation as of each balance sheet date. Securities are classified as held-to-maturity when InsWeb has the positive intent and ability to hold
the securities to maturity. Securities classified as held-to-maturity are carried at amortized
cost, which is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts to maturity. Such amortization is included in interest income. Securities not classified as
held-to-maturity are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value based on quoted market prices, with unrealized gains and losses
reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders' equity. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method.

7.    Finance All K.K. (formerly InsWeb Japan K.K.)

In 1998, InsWeb entered into an agreement with a strategic partner and stockholder to develop, implement and market an online insurance marketplace in Japan and
the Republic of Korea. The venture was carried out exclusively through InsWeb Japan K.K., a Japanese corporation, in which InsWeb owned an equity interest. In conjunction with this agreement, InsWeb
also entered into an agreement in August 1999 to provide consulting and hosting services to assist InsWeb Japan K.K. in developing its Internet strategy. In 2000, $1,414,000 was billed under
this contract and included in
development and maintenance fees. No such services were provided for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. Although this consulting and hosting services agreement has not been terminated,
InsWeb does not expect to provide such services to InsWeb Japan K.K. in the future.

InsWeb's
investment in InsWeb Japan K.K. was purchased in exchange for a promissory note payable to a stockholder. The promissory note is payable in Japanese yen and accrues interest at
5% per annum, which is payable quarterly. The promissory note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest, is due and payable September 15, 2003. Interest expense related to this note for
the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, were $64,000, $65,000 and $70,000, respectively. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001 $1,230,000 and $1,145,000 were outstanding under this
promissory note, respectively.

In
2001, InsWeb and other investors entered into an agreement pursuant to which a new privately-held holding company, Finance All K.K., controls InsWeb Japan K.K. and two
other Internet companies in which InsWeb does not hold a financial interest (the "Reorganization"). The purpose of the Reorganization was to create a holding company that will collectively create an
online financial marketplace consisting of various business-to-consumer financial services. The online market place will provide services in the insurance, consumer loan, and
home loan (mortgage) marketplace in Japan and the Republic of Korea. In exchange for its shares in InsWeb Japan K.K., InsWeb acquired a 14% ownership interest in Finance All K.K. InsWeb is not
required to fund any losses or guarantee any indebtedness of Finance All K.K. and does not have the ability to exercise significant influence over the policies with respect to the operations of
Finance All K.K. At December 31, 2002, InsWeb's ownership interest in Finance All K.K. has decreased to approximately 9%.

InsWeb's
investment interest in Finance All K.K. is being accounted for under the cost method. Prior to the Reorganization, InsWeb accounted for its investment in InsWeb Japan K.K. under
the equity method, under which InsWeb's proportionate share of Finance All K.K. net losses were included as a component of interest income and other, net. It is not practical to estimate the fair
value of InsWeb's investment in Finance All K.K. because of the lack of a quoted market price and the inability to estimate fair value without incurring excessive costs. The carrying value at
December 31, 2002 represents InsWeb's cost less its proportionate share of InsWeb Japan K.K.'s losses through the date of the Reorganization. At December 31, 2002, management believes
the carrying value is not impaired.

8.    Impairment of long-lived assets



In January 2001, InsWeb acquired from Intuit, Inc. certain assets and related liabilities associated with an online insurance shopping and
purchasing service operated by Intuit Insurance Services, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Intuit for $30,117,000, comprised of common stock and fixed payments due over the term of a license
and distribution agreement. In connection with the acquisition, InsWeb and Intuit entered into a license and distribution agreement under which Intuit and InsWeb granted one another licenses to create
links between their respective websites in order to create and operate a co-branded insurance center. InsWeb recorded a long-lived asset of $17,022,000 for prepaid marketing
costs and an intangible asset of $13,095,000, relating to the beneficial terms of the license and distribution agreement. The fair value of the intangible asset was estimated based on the expected
Internet traffic to be received from Intuit by InsWeb.

In
2002 and 2001, as a result of significantly lower than anticipated traffic levels, InsWeb reassessed the recoverability of the assets recorded in connection with this transaction by
comparing the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated relating to this asset to its carrying amount. Based on these evaluations, InsWeb determined that the acquired assets
were impaired and recorded impairment charges of $3,707,000 and $18,519,000, respectively, as the carrying value of these assets was in excess of fair value. The fair value of the acquired assets was
based on estimated future cash flows to be generated from the license and distribution agreement, discounted using a rate commensurate with the risk involved.

In
assessing the recoverability of InsWeb's long-lived assets, InsWeb must make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair
value of the respective assets. Specifically, the variability in anticipated traffic levels, number of completed shopping sessions, and revenue per completed shopping session affect these estimates
and assumptions. If the number of completed shopping sessions, and/or revenue per completed shopping session is below currently anticipated amounts, InsWeb may be required, to record an additional
impairment charge. See also Note 10.



In 1998, InsWeb acquired all of the outstanding shares of Benelytics, Inc. ("Benelytics"). In 2000, InsWeb entered into a linking agreement with
eHealthinsurance.com Services, Inc. ("eHealthInsurance") under which InsWeb customers were able to access eHealthInsurance's individual health, small group health, and Medicare supplement
insurance product offerings. As a result, InsWeb evaluated the cost to develop and market its health care product offerings and decided to discontinue the development of its health care initiatives,
which were primarily being carried out through the business and assets acquired as a result of InsWeb's acquisition of Benelytics in 1998. InsWeb then evaluated the recoverability of the goodwill and
other intangibles recognized in connection with the Benelytics acquisition and determined that the circumstances indicated an inability to recover the carrying amount of the related assets.
Accordingly, InsWeb recorded a non-cash write down of $4,418,000 of goodwill and other
intangible assets, including the assembled workforce and contractual relationships associated with the Benelytics acquisition.

In
2002, InsWeb recorded a charge of $1,800,000 to increase the accrual for lease obligations relating to formerly occupied facilities. In evaluating these lease obligations, InsWeb must
make assumptions regarding the estimated future sublease income relative to these facilities. These estimates and assumptions are affected by area-specific conditions such as new
commercial development, market occupancy rates and future market prices. As a result of the continued decline in the real estate markets where the InsWeb properties are located and the inherent risk
associated with its sub-lessee, due to recent actions by the sub-lessee in attempting to renegotiate and/or terminate the amended sublease agreement, the Company recorded an
additional charge of $1,800,000 in 2002 to increase its accrual relating to formerly occupied facilities. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, InsWeb may be required
to record a charge to increase its existing accrual. See also Note 11.

10.    Other Liabilities

Other liabilities includes a marketing commitment, which represents the present value of the fixed fees due to Intuit in connection with the license and
distribution agreement (as amended March 28, 2002), with payments due in quarterly installments through July 2003, and an imputed interest rate of 7.0% per annum. The balances at
December 31, 2002 and 2001 include $334,000 and $2,194,000, respectively, relating to amounts that are contingently payable. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the balances were $2,306,000
and $15,516,000, respectively.

On
March 28, 2002, InsWeb and Intuit amended their exiting license and distribution agreement. Under the amended agreement, InsWeb will make the originally agreed upon fixed
payments only through July 31, 2003. Fixed payments previously payable to Intuit after July 31, 2003 have been eliminated. Effective August 1, 2003 and through the remainder of
the agreement (January 2006), InsWeb will pay Intuit a portion of the transaction fees received by InsWeb from the Intuit Internet traffic, payable on a quarterly basis. The net result of this
amended contract was a $10,611,000 extraordinary gain, accounted for in InsWeb's results of operations for the year ended December 31, 2002.

Also
included in other liabilities is a promissory note due to stockholder relating to InsWeb's investment in Finance All K.K. (formerly investment in InsWeb Japan K.K.see
Note 7), with principal due on September 13, 2003 and a fixed interest rate of 5% per annum. At December 31, 2002 and 2001, these amounts due were $1,230,000 and $1,145,000,
respectively. It is not practical to estimate the fair value of amounts due to these stockholders due to the related party nature of this transaction.

11.    Commitments and Contingencies



InsWeb leases its current office facilities under non-cancelable operating leases, which expire at various dates through April 2011 including a
10-year lease agreement through 2011 for office space in the Sacramento area which houses its corporate headquarters and agency operations. InsWeb has options to extend the lease at the
end of the lease term, and has the right of first refusal on other office space in the complex. At December 31, 2002, future minimum lease payments under non-cancelable operating
leases were as follows (in thousands):

One
of the office leases is for a 65,000 square foot building in Redwood City, California. Under the terms of this lease, InsWeb is responsible for taxes, insurance and maintenance
expenses. InsWeb had previously subleased a portion of the Redwood City facility under a four-year sublease agreement. In July 2002, InsWeb and its sub-lessee agreed to
amend the sublease, whereby, the sub-lessee agreed to rent the entire facility for the duration of the InsWeb lease (through September 2008). All rent and operating expenses
otherwise payable by InsWeb to the landlord will be paid directly by the sub-lessee. Therefore, the amended sublease agreement results in a reduction in InsWeb's operating lease
commitments of $10,714,000, through the remainder of the lease. However, the sub-lessee is a start-up company with limited operating history and, therefore, there are inherent
risks and uncertainties associated with its future operations and its ability to discharge its obligations through the term of the sublease. In the event that the sub-lessee defaults on
its obligations under the amended sublease, InsWeb would be responsible for making the required lease payments to the landlord through the remaining term of the lease.

In
connection with this lease and other lease obligations for formerly occupied facilities, InsWeb must make assumptions regarding the estimated future sublease income relative to these
facilities. These estimates and assumptions are affected by area-specific conditions such as new commercial development, market occupancy rates and future market prices. As a result of the
continued decline in the real estate markets where the InsWeb properties are located and the inherent risk associated with its sub-lessee,
due to recent actions by the sub-lessee attempting to renegotiate and/or terminate the amended sublease agreement, the Company recorded an additional charge of $1,800,000 to increase its
accrual for formerly occupied facilities. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the future, InsWeb may be required to record a charge to increase its existing accrual.



In February 2001, InsWeb temporarily suspended its online health insurance quoting services due to the decision by eHealthInsurance, Inc., formerly
InsWeb's exclusive provider of online health insurance quotes, to unilaterally terminate their marketing agreement. eHealthInsurance filed suit in the U.S. District Court for Northern California
alleging InsWeb's failure to perform its obligations under the agreement. In March 2001, InsWeb filed a counterclaim alleging that eHealthInsurance wrongfully terminated the agreement and
pursued a course of conduct aimed at damaging InsWeb's business. Subsequent to year-end, the parties have agreed to settle the outstanding lawsuits. See Note 16.

A class action lawsuit was filed on December 5, 2001 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of InsWeb
common stock alleging violations of federal securities laws. The case is brought purportedly on behalf of all persons who purchased InsWeb common stock from July 22, 1999 through
December 6, 2000. The complaint names as defendants InsWeb, certain current and former officers and directors, and three underwriters for InsWeb's initial public offering in July 1999.
The complaint alleges violations of the Securities Act of 1933 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on the grounds that the prospectus incorporated in the registration statement for the offering
failed to disclose, among other things, that (i) the underwriters had solicited and received excessive and undisclosed commissions from certain investors in exchange for which the underwriters
allocated to those investors substantial blocks of the stock sold in the initial public offering, and (ii) the underwriters had entered into agreements with customers whereby the underwriters
agreed to allocate shares of the stock sold in the initial public offering to those customers in exchange for which the customers agreed to purchase additional shares of InsWeb stock in the
aftermarket at pre-determined prices that were above the initial public offering price. No specific damages are claimed. InsWeb believes that the allegations against InsWeb and its current
and former officers and directors are without merit and intends to contest them vigorously. The litigation is in the preliminary stage, and InsWeb cannot predict its outcome. The litigation process is
inherently uncertain. An unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse effect on InsWeb's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

12.    Stockholders' Equity



In 2001, InsWeb's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 167,000 shares of the Company's common stock. Under this repurchase program, InsWeb
acquired 37,000 shares at a cost of $204,000. This program expired in June 2002.

In
July 2002, the Board of Directors authorized management to repurchase additional shares of InsWeb's common stock for a total purchase price of up to $1,000,000 over the
succeeding 12-month period. As of December 31, 2002, a total of 4,400 shares have been repurchased at a cost of $11,000.



In December 2002, the Board of Directors authorized management to repurchase 107,445 shares of InsWeb's common stock held by SOFTBANK Ventures, Inc.
at a cost of $160,000.

In July 1997, InsWeb authorized the 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "1997 Option Plan") and the Senior Executive Option Plan (the "Executive Plan"). Under the
1997 Option Plan, the Board of Directors may issue incentive stock options to employees of InsWeb and its subsidiaries and may also issue nonqualified stock options to employees, officers, directors,
independent contractors and consultants of InsWeb and its subsidiaries. Under the Executive Plan, the Board of Directors may issue nonqualified stock options to employees, officers and directors of
InsWeb and its subsidiaries. Following attendance at each regularly scheduled meeting of the Board of Directors, each eligible director is granted a fully-vested option to purchase 500 shares of
common stock at the fair market value on the date of grant; a fully vested option to purchase 100 shares of common stock is granted for attendance at committee
meetings. The 1997 Option Plan was amended in August 1998, to provide for an automatic annual increase in the share reserve, to be effective on the first day of each fiscal year, by a number of
shares equal to 5% of the number of common shares outstanding as of the last day of the preceding fiscal year. Options granted under these plans generally vest in equal monthly installments over a one
to three year period, except for certain options granted to members of InsWeb's Board of Directors, which vest immediately. Options generally expire ten years from the date of grant.

In
connection with the Company's initial public offering, InsWeb determined that the deemed fair market value of InsWeb's common stock on the date of grant of certain employee stock
options was in excess of the exercise price of the options. This difference was recorded as deferred stock compensation, was classified as a reduction of stockholders' equity and was amortized as a
charge to operations over the vesting period of the applicable options, which was generally three years. In 2001, InsWeb reversed deferred stock compensation previously recorded of $53,000 as a result
of employee terminations. Amortization of stock compensation expense recognized for the years ended December 31, 2001, and 2000 totaled $256,000 and $912,000, respectively, based on the vesting
periods of the underlying options on a graded-vesting basis. Amounts were fully amortized in 2001. InsWeb's stock option grants and related fair values are as follows:

The
per share weighted average fair value of options granted was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes options pricing model with the following assumptions:

|                        |  | Year Ended December 31, |  
|----------------------- |  | ----------------------- | -
|
|Risk-free interest rate |  | 3.7                     | %
|Expected life           |  | 4.9 years               |  
|Expected dividend yield |  |                        |  
|Volatility              |  | 90.0                    |  

The
risk-free interest rate range represents the low and high end of the range used at different points during the year.



InsWeb has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "1999 Plan") under which eligible employees may authorize payroll deductions of up to 15% of their compensation to
purchase shares at 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of commencement of the offering or on the last day of the six-month purchase period. During the
years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, 19,905, 17,762 and 17,045 shares, respectively, were distributed to employees at prices ranging from $2.13 per share to $74.28 per share. The
weighted average fair value of the 2002, 2001 and 2000 awards were $3.21 per share, $5.34 and $54.90 per share, respectively. At December 31, 2002, InsWeb had 208,000 shares of its common stock
reserved for future issuance under the 1999 Plan. The number of shares of common stock issuable under the 1999 Plan is increased by 50,000 shares each year until January 1, 2008.



In connection with the acquisition of Benelytics, InsWeb assumed all warrants then outstanding to purchase common stock of Benelytics and converted them into
warrants to purchase an aggregate of 2,000 shares of InsWeb's common stock at an exercise price of $65.16 per share. These warrants are fully exercisable and expire on June 1, 2003. As of
December 31, 2002, no warrants had been exercised and all remained outstanding. The fair value of these warrants was accounted for as a portion of the purchase price for the Benelytics
acquisition.

In
connection with a service agreement with a third-party insurance company entered into during 2001, InsWeb issued warrants to purchase an aggregate of 58,333 shares of InsWeb's common
stock at a purchase price of $30.00 per share. The warrants became exercisable on March 31, 2001 and expire on March 1, 2006. The fair value of the warrants of $276,000 was derived using
the Black-Scholes model. In January 2002, these warrants were surrendered and cancelled.

13.    Related Party Transactions



For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, InsWeb recognized $1,085,000, $3,333,000 and $4,625,000, respectively in marketing expense under a
marketing agreement with an Internet company. An affiliate of the Internet company became a stockholder of InsWeb on December 30, 1998. See Notes 12 and 16.

For
the year ended December 31, 2002, InsWeb paid Intuit $3,000,000 under the license and distribution agreement. As of December 31, 2002, the future fixed payments to
Intuit are $2,000,000 in 2003. See also Notes 8 and 10.



A stockholder, who is also a customer, accounted for $0, $6,000 and $881,000 of InsWeb's total revenues during 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. No amounts were
due from this customer at December 31, 2002 and 2001.

14.    Income Taxes

As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, InsWeb had net operating loss carry forwards of approximately $150,000,000 and $140,200,000 for federal income tax
purposes and $95,000,000 and $104,300,000 state income tax purposes, respectively. The federal and state net operating loss carry forwards begin to expire in the years 2011 and 2004, respectively.
InsWeb's ability to utilize its net operating loss carry forwards to offset future taxable income may be subject to restrictions attributable to equity transactions that result in changes in ownership
as defined in the Tax Reform Act of 1986. These restrictions may limit, on an annual basis, InsWeb's future use of its net operating loss carry forwards. The amount, if any, of such limitations has
not yet been determined.

The
components of the net deferred tax assets and liabilities are presented below (in thousands):

Due
to uncertainty surrounding the realization of the favorable tax attributes in future tax returns, InsWeb has recorded a valuation allowance against its net deferred tax asset. The
valuation allowance recorded for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 increased by $17,797,000 and $19,272,000, respectively.

The
difference between the income tax benefit at the federal statutory rate of 34% and InsWeb's effective tax rate is due primarily to the valuation allowance established to offset the
deferred tax assets. The provision for income taxes is different than the amount computed using the applicable statutory federal income tax rate with the difference for each year summarized below:

15.    Employee Benefit Plan

InsWeb has a defined contribution plan offered to all eligible employees, and is qualified under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue code. InsWeb will
match 50% of the first 6% of elective contributions made by each qualifying employee. Each participant is 100% vested in elective contributions and is incrementally vested one-third at the
end of each of three consecutive years of service in employer contributions. Employer contributions for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 were $158,000, $89,000 and $308,000,
respectively.

16.    Subsequent Events



In February 2003, the Board of Directors authorized management to repurchase 2,241,440 shares of InsWeb's common stock, consisting of 1,169,898 shares held
by Intuit Insurance Services, Inc. and 1,071,542 shares held by SOFTBANK America, Inc. The shares were purchased for $3,810,000, or $1.70 per share. With the closing of this transaction,
SOFTBANK Corporation's holdings of InsWeb common stock have been reduced to 353,032 shares, while Intuit Insurance Services, Inc. holds no shares. Following these transactions, InsWeb had
4,705,104 shares of common stock outstanding.



In March 2003, InsWeb and eHealthInsurance agreed to settle ongoing litigation in the U.S. District Court for the Northern California. The litigation
stemmed from eHealthInsurance's decision in February 2001 to terminate an agreement concerning the marketing of health insurance to consumers originating at InsWeb. Although specific terms of
the settlement agreement are confidential, eHealthInsurance has agreed to pay InsWeb $800,000 for the services performed by InsWeb prior to the termination of the marketing agreement. In addition, the
parties have released all claims against each other relating to the marketing agreement.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.

On November 27, 2001, InsWeb Corporation ("InsWeb") dismissed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") as its independent accountants. The Audit Committee of
InsWeb's Board of Directors participated in and approved the decision to change independent accountants.

InsWeb
engaged Ernst & Young ("E&Y") as its new independent auditors for the year ending December 31, 2001 on November 29, 2001. The Audit Committee of InsWeb's
Board of Directors participated in and approved the decision to retain E&Y as InsWeb's independent auditors. During 1999 and 2000 and through November 28, 2001, InsWeb had not consulted with
E&Y regarding either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on InsWeb's financial
statements.

The
reports of PwC on InsWeb's financial statements for 2000 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or
accounting principles. In connection with its audit for fiscal year 2000 and through November 27, 2001, there were no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements if not resolved to the satisfaction of PwC would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the
financial statements for such years. In addition, during 1999 and 2000 and through November 27, 2001, there were no reportable events (as defined in Regulation S-K Item
304(a)(1)(v)).

PART III

The SEC allows us to include information required in this report by referring to other documents or reports we have already filed or will soon be filing. This is
called "incorporation by reference." We intend to file our definitive proxy statement pursuant to Regulation 14A not later than 120 days after the end of the fiscal year covered by this
report, and certain information therein is incorporated in this report by reference.
