2.       SCOPE

         2.1 (a) During the Term, CBS shall arrange for the placement of
advertising and promotion of the Hollywood Site in the media category or type
set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto, at the rate of Ten Million Dollars
($10,000,000) per Contract Year (based upon the value ascribed for such
advertising in subparagraph 2.1(b) below). A portion of the foregoing
$10,000,000 amount may, at the option of Hollywood, be allocated to production
costs for such advertising and promotion incurred by CBS or its Affiliates, at
Hollywood's request. CBS and Hollywood shall meet periodically to jointly
develop a media plan to formulate the Contract Yearly allocation of Ten Million
Dollars of advertising and promotion, using the media categories or types set
forth in Exhibit A. The media plan shall provide broad-based exposure for the
Hollywood Site, including prominent placements in conjunction with appropriate
entertainment-related events and programming. The media plan shall provide for
the distribution of television and radio ads over various time periods. CBS will
endeavor to implement the advertising and promotional goals set forth in the
media plan. All advertising and promotional materials shall be subject to the
applicable CBS Television Network Advertising Guidelines and CBS's standard
preemption policies. CBS shall not have to make any ad placements if the
exigencies of time or current or future contractual obligations entered into
prior to the time the Company requests such advertising, prevent or restrict CBS
from doing so.

                  (b) The rate card value of all broadcast advertising and
promotion provided hereunder shall be based upon the average paid unit price,
excluding barter, for spots (excluding political spots) purchased during the
specific CBS Television Network, CBS television station, CBS/Infinity owned and
operated radio station or CBS Cable broadcast in which the advertising or
promotion occurs. The value of the banner advertising on CBS Internet Sites
shall have a rate card price equal to the average price paid or payable
(excluding barter) by third parties for banner advertising during the month in
which such advertising is delivered. The price of the billboard ad concerned
shall be based on the average price paid or payable (excluding barter) by any
third party during the same time period for any similar (in terms of, among
other things, location, size, and type of billboard) billboard ad(s) during the
month prior to the month in which such billboard ad is delivered.

                  (c) CBS will provide to Hollywood calendar monthly statements,
calendar quarterly statements (i.e., March 31, June 30, September 30, December
31) and calendar yearly statements, within twenty (20) days following expiration
of the time period concerned (i.e. calendar month, quarter and year) showing the
(i) value attributable to each of the media categories and types with respect to
the advertising and promotions purchased by Hollywood during the statement
period and (ii) the calculation of the aggregate value of advertising purchased.

         2.2 (a) CBS will maintain accurate books and records which report the
expenditure of the advertising and promotional value by Hollywood and
information from which the calculation can be derived. Hollywood may, at its own
expense, examine those books and records, as provided in this Section 2.2.
Hollywood may make such an examination for a particular statement provided
pursuant to subparagraph 2.1(c) only once and such examination must occur within
three (3) years after the date such statement is sent by CBS to Hollywood.


                                       6

(CBS will be deemed conclusively to have sent Hollywood the statement concerned
at the time prescribed in Section 2.1(c), unless Hollywood notifies CBS
otherwise with respect to any statement within sixty (60) days after that
designated time.) Hollywood may make those examinations only during CBS's usual
business hours, and at the address set forth herein for the provision of notices
to CBS, unless otherwise notified. Hollywood will be required to notify CBS at
least ten (10) days before the date of planned examination. If Hollywood's
examination has not been completed within two (2) months from the time Hollywood
begins it, CBS may require Hollywood to terminate it on seven (7) days notice to
Hollywood at any time.

                  (b)      If any examination of CBS's books and records
         discloses that:

                           (i) CBS has failed to properly account for
         advertising and promotions purchased by Hollywood hereunder, then CBS
         will make appropriate adjustment(s) to the cumulative total purchased
         by Hollywood.

                           (ii) CBS has overstated the value of advertising
         purchased by more than 7.5%, then CBS shall reimburse Hollywood for its
         direct out-of-pocket expenses incurred in identifying such material
         overstatement.

         2.3 (a) During each Contract Year, upon Hollywood's notice to CBS,
Hollywood shall have the option to require CBS to sell
advertisements/advertising space on the Hollywood Site totaling Gross Ad
Revenues up to $1.5 million per Contract Year (the "Annual Ad Sales Option"),
provided however, that Hollywood shall reduce the amount of Annual Additional
Promo Commitment available to Hollywood, pursuant to paragraph 2.4 below (i.e.,
$4,300,000 per Contract Year) by the Annual Ad Sales Option or any portion
thereof elected/sought by Hollywood.

                  (b) (i) (A) CBS shall include the Hollywood Site in all of its
CBS PLUS advertising sales programs and presentations to the extent that such
programs/presentations are appropriate in respect of the sale of advertising on
Hollywood Site, and (B) CBS shall invite Hollywood ad sales staff members to
attend all CBS PLUS sales meetings specifically related to the sale of
advertisements/advertising space on the Hollywood Site; and (ii) CBS will have
the right to bundle inventory relating to the Hollywood Site with television,
radio, cable, Internet and billboard inventory, although Hollywood shall only be
credited with the pro-rated value of the advertising which appears on the
Hollywood Site.

                  (c) Hollywood shall pay CBS a commission of eight per cent
(8%) of Gross Ad Revenues (the "CBS Commission") with respect to advertising
sold on the Hollywood Site, in excess of the Annual Ad Sales Option concerned,
if any. The CBS Commission shall be payable upon Hollywood's receipt of payment
from the advertiser. CBS shall coordinate all such sales of
advertisements/advertising space with Hollywood's ad sales staff or as otherwise
agreed to by the parties. All sales of advertisements/advertising space by CBS
shall be consistent with CPM rates and other pricing then being charged on the
Hollywood Site. All sales in excess of the Annual Ad Sales Option shall be
subject to the availability of advertising inventory on the Hollywood Site.

         2.4 (a) (i) In addition to the advertising and promotion described in
paragraph 2.1 above, Hollywood shall have the right to require CBS to arrange
for placement of advertising and promotion of the Hollywood Site (in the media
category or type set forth in Exhibit A, and subject to the terms of this
Agreement) at a Market Value of no more than Four Million Three Hundred Thousand
Dollars ($4,300,000) during each of the first six Contract Years and Four
Million Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($4,200,000) during the seventh Contract
Year (the "Annual Additional Promo Commitment"), subject to the reductions
prescribed in section 2.4(a)(ii) below.

                           (ii) The Annual Additional Promo Commitment shall be
         reduced by: (A) the Annual Ad Sales Option, as prescribed in paragraph
         2.3 above; and (B) the Market Value of any Content provided by CBS
         (during the Contract Year concerned), pursuant to section 2.4(a)(i) of
         the Content License.

                  (b) (i) Upon commencement of the Contract Year and/or each
         calendar quarter of the Contract Year concerned, Hollywood shall use
         reasonable efforts to notify CBS of its election to license CBS
         Content, exercise the Annual Ad Sales Option or utilize the Annual
         Additional Promo Commitment, and the respective Market Values thereof.

                           (ii) If, upon expiration of the Contract Year
         concerned, Hollywood has failed to notify CBS of its election, as set
         forth in section 2.4(b)(i) above, then the Annual Additional Promo
         Commitment (or any portion thereof for which Hollywood has failed to
         notify CBS of its election) will be deemed forfeited.


                           (iii) Except as set forth in section 2.4(b)(ii)
         above, if upon expiration of the Contract Year concerned, the Annual
         Additional Promo Commitment has not been exhausted, then the amount of
         the unused portion of the Annual Additional Promo Commitment may be
         carried over to the immediately subsequent Contract Year (the "Annual
         Promo Carryover"), it being understood, however, that (A) in the
         immediately subsequent Contract Year the Annual Promo Carryover shall
         be exhausted (first) before the Annual Additional Promo Commitment for
         such subsequent Contract Year is utilized (B) Hollywood shall identify
         the intended use for (i.e., allocate) the Annual Promo Carryover during
         the first thirty (30) days of such subsequent Contract Year, and CBS
         shall use reasonable efforts to satisfy the allocation request
         depending upon the availability of the inventory/item sought. In the
         event that the inventory is not available, then Hollywood shall make a
         substitute allocation within thirty (30) days following CBS's advising
         Hollywood that the inventory/item sought is unavailable, (C) any
         portion of the Annual Promo Carryover unused as of the expiration date
         of the Contract Year concerned (i.e., such subsequent Contract Year)
         shall be deemed forfeited, except to the extent Hollywood complied with
         the notice requirements prescribed herein and CBS did not deliver such
         portion of the Annual Promo Carryover and (D) any portion of Annual
         Additional Promo Commitment (including any Annual Promo Carryover)
         unused as of the expiration date of the Term shall be deemed forfeited,
         except to the extent Hollywood complied with the notice requirements
         prescribed herein and CBS did not deliver such

                                       8

                           (iii) the Hollywood Site will be produced, advertised
         and transmitted in accordance with all applicable federal, state, local
         and foreign laws and regulations; and

                           (iv) at all times, it will maintain the Hollywood

         standards. In connection therewith, the Company shall satisfy the
         following minimum performance standards: (A) use its best efforts to
         maintain continuous accessibility to the public on the Internet; (B)
         capability of sustaining traffic of no less than 22 million page views
         per month, including, without limitation, the existence of a viable
         technological response, in the event that the foregoing traffic number
         is exceeded, that is designed to handle at least 44 million page views
         per month; (C) functionality as outlined/delineated in the most recent
         business plan for Hollywood; (D) monitoring of the Hollywood Site's

         use no less than the quality and ease of use of the Hollywood Site as
         of this date.

                           (v) advertising and promotion material and any
         portion thereof created by or on behalf of Hollywood or furnished by
         Hollywood to CBS and the use thereof shall not violate any law or
         violate the rights of any Person.

         4.2 (a) Each party to this Agreement (the "Indemnifying Party") shall
at all times indemnify, hold harmless and defend the other party (collectively,
the "Indemnified Party") from and against any loss, cost, liability or expense
(including court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or
resulting from any breach by the Indemnifying Party of any representation,
warranty or covenant contained herein. In the event of any claim, the
Indemnified Party shall: (i) promptly notify the Indemnifying Party of the
claim; (ii) allow the Indemnifying Party to direct the defense and settlement of
third party claim with counsel of the Indemnifying Party's choosing; and (iii)

information and assistance that is reasonably necessary for the defense and
settlement of the third party claim. The Indemnified Party reserves the right to
retain counsel, at the Indemnified Party's sole expense, to participate in the
defense of any such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not settle any such
claim or alleged claim without first obtaining the Indemnified Party's prior
written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, if the terms
of such settlement would adversely affect the Indemnified Party's rights under
this Agreement or otherwise. If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense and
settlement of the claim as set forth above, then the Indemnifying Party's only
obligation is to satisfy the claim, judgment or approved settlement.

                  (b) Any sums payable by Hollywood under this paragraph 4.2 may
be offset by Hollywood against the Market Value of any advertising, Content or
Ad Sales Option deliverable by CBS (the "CBS Deliverable(s)") pursuant to this
Agreement or the Content License (the "Indemnity Offset"). The amount or Market
Value of the CBS Deliverable concerned will be reduced by the proportion thereof
used for or contributed to the Indemnity Offset. For purposes of the Indemnity
Offset, Hollywood shall be obligated to exhaust the CBS Deliverables as follows:

                                       10
<PAGE>

                           (i) The Market Value of any advertising or promotion,
         deliverable pursuant to paragraph 2.1 of this Agreement, shall be fully
         exhausted before any other CBS Deliverable is used for/contributed to
         the Indemnity Offset.

                           (ii) Provided the Deliverable described in section
         4.2(b)(i) above has been fully exhausted, the Market Value of any
         Annual Additional Promo Commitment (deliverable pursuant to paragraph
         2.4 above) or Annual Ceiling (as such term is defined in the Content
         License and deliverable pursuant to subparagraph 2.3(c) of the Content
         License), shall be fully exhausted before any other CBS Deliverable is
         used for/contributed to the Indemnity Offset.

                           (iii) The Market Value of any Ad Sales Option,
         deliverable pursuant to paragraph 2.2 of this Agreement, may be used
         for/contributed to the Indemnity Offset only if and when the
         Deliverables described in sections 4.2(b)(i) and (ii) above have been
         fully exhausted.

For avoidance of doubt, CBS's obligation to deliver any CBS Deliverable,
pursuant to this Agreement or the Content License, shall be extinguished (or
reduced, as applicable) to the extent that such CBS Deliverable is used
for/contributed to any Indemnity Offset.

5.       REMEDIES

         5.1 (a) CBS shall have the right to suspend and/or withdraw placement
of all advertising and promotion and Hollywood Site ad sales:

                           (i) during such time as the Company is enjoined from
         using the tradename, trademark or term(s) "HOLLYWOOD.com" on or in
         connection with the Hollywood Site and has not renamed the Website. The
         Company shall rename the Hollywood Site within twenty (20) days
         following the issuance of any injunction or the resolution of any claim
         which requires the Company to cease using the tradename, trademark or
         term(s) "HOLLYWOOD.com" on or in connection with its Website.

                           (ii) In the event that the Hollywood Site is not
         operational for a period of seventy-two (72) consecutive hours until it
         becomes operational in a manner consistent with the standards in the
         industry.

                  (b) CBS may exercise its right to suspend and/or withdraw
placement of all advertising and promotion and all advertising sales pursuant to
this paragraph 5.1 by sending the appropriate notice to Hollywood. No exercise
by CBS of its rights under this Article 5 will limit CBS's remedies by reason of
Hollywood's or BEI's default, CBS's rights to exercise any other rights under
this Article 5, or any of CBS's other rights.

         5.2 CBS shall have the right to terminate this Agreement if any of the
following occurs:

                  (a) The Hollywood Site contains Content which, in CBS's
reasonable business judgment, violates Article I or Article III of the CBS
License Guidelines (as set forth in

                                       11
<PAGE>

the Content License) and Hollywood fails to remove such Content from the
Hollywood Site within ten (10) days after written notice of CBS's objection
thereto demanding the removal of such Content.

                  (b) Except as otherwise set forth in subparagraph 5.2(a)
above, either Hollywood or BEI (if applicable) breaches any material term or
condition of this Agreement, or any Collaboration Agreement and fails to: (i)
cure such breach within thirty (30) days after CBS's notice of such breach, or
(ii) complete curing such breach within sixty (60) days following CBS's notice
of such breach; provided however that this clause (ii) shall only apply to a
default that is incapable of being cured in thirty (30) days. The foregoing cure
period will not apply: (i) solely with respect to this Agreement, to a term or
condition (in this Agreement) for which a specific cure period is provided; or
(ii) to a breach incapable of being cured.

                  (c) BEI or Hollywood: (i) becomes insolvent or unable to pay
its debts as they mature or makes an assignment for the benefit of its
creditors; (ii) is the subject of a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or any
voluntary proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation, or
composition for the benefit of creditors, if such petition or proceeding is not
dismissed within sixty (60) days of filing; (iii) becomes the subject of any
involuntary petition in bankruptcy or any involuntary proceeding relating to
insolvency, receivership, liquidation, or composition for the benefit of
creditors, if such petition or proceeding is not dismissed within sixty (60)
days of filing; or (iv) is liquidated or dissolved.

                  (d) BEI issues to a Person any voting securities of BEI and:
(i) at the time of such issuance such Person is a CBS Competitor and (ii) as a
result of such issuance such Person beneficially owns or controls, directly or
indirectly, more than fifteen (15%) percent of the total voting power of BEI, in
the aggregate. For the purposes of this subparagraphs 5.2(d), 5.2(e) and 5.2(f):
(x) the term "beneficial ownership" shall have the meaning set forth in Section
13(d) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder; (y) the term "total voting power" shall mean at any
time, the total number of votes that may be cast in the election of directors of
BEI at any meeting of the holders of voting securities at such time for such
purpose; and (z) the term "voting securities" shall mean the Capital Stock and
any other securities issued by BEI having the power to vote in the election of
directors of BEI including, without limitation, any securities having such power
only upon the occurrence of a default or any other extraordinary contingency.

                  (e) BEI issues to a Person any voting securities of BEI and:
(i) at the time of such issuance such Person is a CBS Competitor that
beneficially owns or controls, directly or indirectly, more than fifteen (15%)
percent of the total voting power of BEI and (ii) as a result of such issuance
the voting power of such Person is increased by any amount.

                  (f) BEI's board of directors consents to the acquisition of
voting securities by a CBS Competitor such that as a result of such consent, the
CBS Competitor beneficially owns or controls, directly or indirectly, more than
15% of the total voting power of BEI and at the time of such consent the Rights
Agreement by and between BEI and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company dated
August 23, 1996, as amended, is in full force and effect.

                   (g) Hollywood discontinues using the "Hollywood.com" mark (or
any substitute mark approved by CBS) and does not establish use of a substitute
mark reasonably acceptable to CBS within thirty (30) days.

                  (h) The Hollywood Site ceases to operate due to any
circumstance(s) (other than circumstances beyond Hollywood's reasonable control,
which circumstances simultaneously affect a substantial number of web sites on
the Internet) for: (i) a period of thirty (30) consecutive days; or (ii) a
period of one week at least two times in any six (6) month period.

CBS may exercise its right to terminate pursuant to this paragraph 5.2 by
sending Hollywood appropriate written notice. No exercise by CBS of any of its
rights under this Article 5 will limit CBS's remedies by reason of Hollywood's
or BEI's default, CBS's rights to exercise any other rights under this Article
5, or any of CBS's other rights.
