                           THE SUTHERLAND GROUP, LTD.
                          STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS

                             AGREEMENT FOR SERVICES

This Agreement, including the attached Statement of Work (collectively
"Agreement") effective as of the date of the latest signature below, by and
between THE SUTHERLAND GROUP, LTD., a New York corporation with offices at 1160
Pittsford-Victor Road, Pittsford, New York 14534 ("SGL") and Telocity, Inc, with
offices at 10355 North De Anza Blvd., Cupertino, CA 95014 ("Client").

Client desires to obtain, and SGL desires to provide, services in relation to
the staffing and management of a program to be referred to as Technical Support
Program ("Program").

SCOPE:

SGL shall perform services at levels authorized by Client and shall manage and
supervise the Program as more specifically set forth in the attached Statement
of Work (the "Services").

SGL shall and does hereby acknowledge that SGL is an independent contractor
providing services to Client. SGL may perform its obligations through the use of
independent contractors, provided, however, SGL will not be relieved of its
obligations under this Agreement by use of any subcontractors.

OPERATIONS:

SGL shall provide the necessary personnel who shall have that level of training
and experience which is appropriate to the nature of the Services described in
the attached Statement of Work.

SGL shall comply at all times with all Federal, state and local authorities,
statutes, rules and regulations applicable to its business activities and shall
provide worker's compensation insurance in amounts required by applicable law.

SGL and its personnel shall comply at all times with all rules and regulations,
policies and practices applicable to Client's business activities which are
communicated to SGL management by Client.

FEES:

Client shall pay SGL for its services and costs as described in the attached
Statement of Work. Unless another payment schedule has been agreed upon and set
forth in the attached Statement of Work, SGL shall invoice on the first (1st)
day of the month in which services are to be rendered. Payment shall be due
within thirty (30) days of date of an invoice from SGL and, if not paid within
that time, will bear interest from that date, until paid, at the rate of one and
one-half percent (1-1/2%) per month.


<PAGE>   2
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Client fails to
make any payment when due SGL past 60 days, SGL will have the right to
immediately suspend its performance under this Agreement. Any suspension of
performance will not limit or affect SGL's right to recover amounts owed by
Client prior to such suspension, or any other rights or remedies SGL may have.

TERM OF THE AGREEMENT:

The term of this Agreement shall be that specified in the attached Statement of
Work (the "Term"), subject to the right of the parties to terminate this
Agreement pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

Client may terminate for convenience all or any portion of SGL's Services
hereunder effective, upon ninety (90) days written notice to SGL; provided that
Client shall remain liable to SGL for amounts due up to the date of termination
(including, amounts due for services rendered and costs during the notice
period). As an alternative, Client may provide SGL with written demand that SGL
immediately cease performance of all services upon receipt of such demand, but
in that case, Client shall remain liable to SGL for service fees and costs for a
period of ninety (90) days from receipt of the demand at the same rates and in
the same amounts as if SGL had provided services during that period.

Client shall have the option to increase the SGL staffing from that provided in
the Statement of Work by giving thirty (30) days written notice to SGL and
paying SGL the associated personnel cost fee. SGL shall not modify its staffing
levels with respect to the Services without written concurrence from the Client.

In the event either party fails to perform any of its obligations under this
Agreement unless (i) such failure is cured within thirty (30) days after written
notice (10 days for payment default) to the defaulting party specifying the
nature of the failure or, (ii) the defaulting party is diligently proceeding
with the cure of such default, the non-defaulting party may, in addition to any
other remedies available at law or in equity, terminate the Agreement on the
date thirty (30) days after such notice to the defaulting party (10 days for
payment default). If Client terminates the Agreement, Client shall pay SGL for
all services rendered prior to the effective date of termination, including
services rendered during the relevant notice period.

UNAVOIDABLE DELAYS:

Neither party shall be responsible for delays or errors in its performance under
this agreement occurring by reasons or circumstances beyond its control,
including acts of civil or military authority, national emergencies, labor
difficulties, fire, flood or catastrophe, acts of God, insurrection, war, riots,
or failure of transportation, communication or power supply; provided, however,
that should any such delay continue for more than forty-five (45) days, the
Agreement may be terminated upon written notice by the party whose performance
is not affected by the delay.

court or government agency (provided that the disclosing party shall endeavor to
give such notice to the non-disclosing party as may be reasonable under the
circumstances) and shall not apply with respect to information three (3) years

obligation of confidentiality or which either party gained knowledge or
possession of, free of any obligation of confidentiality.

other within the prior one (1) year period), to become its employee or
contractor or through any third party without the consent of the other party to

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INTRODUCTION

This Statement of Work (SOW) describes the work and services that The Sutherland
Group, Ltd. (Sutherland) is prepared to perform for Telocity by creating and
maintaining Telocity's InterChange DSL Technical Support Center.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Telocity is in the initial stages of rolling out the InterChange DSL system to
selected markets throughout the United States. The launch will initially target
consumers in the "NFL Cities" market. InterChange DSL consists of a "smart" DSL
modem allowing the end-user to self-install the product, eliminating the need
for onsite installation by technical personnel ("truck roll"). The system is
specifically aimed at the home consumer market; therefore, many end users of
the product will require live technical support as well as associated Pre-Sales
Customer Service.

DELIVERABLES

In the spirit of partnership, Sutherland suggests the following service options
to minimize support costs while still delivering superior service to Telocity
customers:

     o    Pre-Sales Customer Service will be provided from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.
          Eastern Time (7x12).

     o    Post-Sales Technical Support will be provided from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.
          Eastern Time (7x16).

     o    Customers will dial a toll-free phone number dedicated to Telocity.
          The call will be picked up by the IVRU (Interactive Voice Response
          Unit) and directed to the dedicated TSE (Technical Support Engineer)

     o    Sutherland will utilize Telocity's OSS software and Remedy to track
          and monitor all calls received by the Help Desk.

     o    Average call duration is expected to be 5 minutes for Pre-Sales
          Customer Service Calls.

     o    Average call duration is expected to be 10 minutes for Help Desk
          Technical Support Calls.

     o    Sutherland will provide service utilizing 15 dedicated Technical
          Support Engineer's (TSE's)

                           InterChange DSL Help Desk
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

   o  Telocity will provide Sutherland with a working copy of the latest version
      of InterChange and all associated hardware and software on an ongoing
      basis. Sutherland will institute a lab environment for the use of the
      InterChange DSL system TSE's in order to emulate the user's regular
      environment and attempt to duplicate the problems that are the subject of
      the support calls. This allows the TSE's to become proficient in the use
      and support of Interchange DSL.

Sutherland has the ability to add foreign language support as the need arises..
Sutherland currently provides international Help Desk support to a variety of
clients from our San Diego, CA, Rochester, NY, and Syracuse, NY support
centers. Support is provided in a variety of languages, including English,
German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Japanese, and Chinese, among others.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

The Sutherland/Telocity Help Desk will provide InterChange DSL customers access
to a team of qualified information technology personnel. The following
functions will be delivered through the Pre-Sales and Post-Sales Support Help
Desk:

Post-Installation Support Help Desk Services to include:

   o  Interchange DSL Support
   o  Related application support (software necessary for using Interchange DSL)
   o
   o  Tracking of all calls to final resolution (defined as a satisfied
      customer).
   o  Reports detailing activities and service levels
   o  Escalation services

HOURS OF SERVICE

The Telocity Post-Installation Support Help Desk will be accessible 7 days per
week 16 hours per day (7 am to 11 p.m. Eastern Time). Access will be primarily
provided via telephone using a dedicated toll-free number. Access will be
additionally provided through E-mail and Fax.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Access to the Help Desks via IVRU (Interactive Voice Response Unit) can be
provided to implement menu choices and specialized routing based on input.

SERVICE LEVELS

Service levels will be monitored by Sutherland and are reported to Telocity for
performance evaluation. This information will be utilized to make adjustments
to the program for higher quality results. The following are representative
metrics and goals for this program, starting 90 days after program inception,
scheduled for October 15, 1999:

-  Post-Sales Installation Technical Product support 16 hours each business
   day from 7:00 am to 11:00 pm Eastern time. (7X16)

-  Average Speed of Answer [*] or less after initial greeting.

-  Abandon rate less than [*]% of calls.

Service level metrics reviews and renegotiation can be requested by either
party at any time following the standard change control process.

STAFFING

All staff on the Help Desk will be highly skilled, experienced, professionals
who are career employees, not contractors, of The Sutherland Group, Ltd. The
profile of Technical Support Engineer (TSE) is:

     -  2-5 years technical experience

     -  End-User Support experience

     -  Internet experience (navigation, connectivity)

     o    Customer Service Skills
     o    Problem Probing
     o    Ongoing InterChange DSL and Technology Updates, as dictated by
          product roll-out and upgrade considerations

DEDICATED MODEL

Sutherland normally utilizes a dedicated program model for staffing technical
support projects. No customer program "sharing" is designed into our employee
model except for carefully planned overflow scenarios (controlled at the ACD).
We manage our program teams as such and locate them in common areas. It is
common that the teams stay together for long periods and become "attached" to
the customer for whom they are providing support. Sutherland's employee model
includes a guideline for one year minimum on each assignment, whenever possible.

GREETING/REPRESENTATION

The Technical Support Engineers (TSE) will represent themselves at all times
over any communication mode as Telocity personnel and will not disclose or
allude to an outsourced arrangement. The greeting will be similar to: "Thank
you for calling the Telocity InterChange Help Desk. This is FIRST NAME, how may
I help you?"

DIFFERENTIATORS

Among the differences between Sutherland and our competition is our approach to
the design and management of our programs. From inception of the program to its
execution, Sutherland excels at providing the optimal solution for our clients'
needs. We are unique in our superior human resources, where we offer
professional information technology engineers consistent training and
identified career paths. The state-of-the-art technology used for each program
is focused on multi-platform computer systems to meet specific technical
requirements and provides an integrated telecommunications structure that
allows our representatives to optimize their time on each call.

Technology is a core competency for Sutherland, and our Help Desk Engineers are

extremely low while continually enhancing our level of experience, giving
Sutherland a key edge in implementing advanced technical solutions and reducing
our operational expenses. Our membership in a number of call center and support
industry associations exposes Sutherland to the latest advances in the industry
to complement our focus on high quality and value. Every program we manage is
underscored by a constant focus on continuous improvement and customer
satisfaction.

SUTHERLAND'S TECHNICAL ENVIRONMENT

CALL PROCESSING ARCHITECTURE (TELEPHONY)

Sutherland's telecommunications environment includes a collection of hardware,
software, and firmware that enables our call centers to implement and manage
complex telephony operations efficiently and consistently. Sutherland's call
centers utilize Nortel Meridian Option 81c ACD's. These ACDs utilize Nortel's
Networked ACD product to establish virtual call centers that can exist across
physical ACDs in multiple locations. This capability allows a single queue to
balance and distribute calls to representatives in several Sutherland sites. We
currently have San Diego, CA, Rochester, NY, and Syracuse, NY integrated via
the ACD Network.

Our Customer Controlled Routing (CCR) software offers a variety of features for
programming queues and different types of treatment to incoming calls. CCR can
direct calls based on Calling Line Identification (CLID) information obtained
from the dialed number, or gather and react to input obtained through a
front-end script. For example, VIP callers can be recognized based on the
particular number dialed and therefore granted priority treatment in the queue.

Sutherland utilizes extensive computer telephony integration (CTI). CTI allows
for full communication among our network application servers and our ACD.
Sutherland has full CTI capability, including phone call integration with a
database record, screen pops, IVRU integration, and ACD data linkage into
trouble ticket report data.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sutherland's Network Infrastructure is based on industry standard products and
tools used to establish both our corporate local and wide area networking
communications as well as our external connectivity to our clients and strategic
partners. Sutherland's corporate WAN utilizes technologies such as ATM and
Frame Relay to implement high-speed data transfer among the six Sutherland
facilities. The corporation has standardized on TCP/IP and Ethernet and uses
Windows NT as its primary Network Operating System.

Sutherland's internal applications are based on either two or three tier
client/server architecture. We have UNIX, Netware and NT Servers driving our
applications, tools, and database engines. Internet access is provided by
multiple Internet Servers (access and host) with dual dedicated T1 connections
to the Internet from each Sutherland facility. Our end-users can access various
applications and tools, on-line faxing, Internet and corporate e-mail, and
reference libraries on CD-Jukeboxes whenever appropriate. Client PC's have been
standardized on Compaq Pentium II 233 MHz, with a minimum of 32 MB RAM with 2
GB disk. Each workstation is equipped with 17 inch VGA monitor to allow for
ample viewing for our Graphical User Interfaces in each application.

To enable connectivity to our clients and business partners, Sutherland has
developed various gateways into external networks. Connectivity options vary
according to bandwidth requirements. We have fully dedicated T1 connections,
many dedicated lines (56k or greater), frame-relay, Virtual Private Networks,
and ISDN. Our network connects to external customer systems consisting of
client/server, mainframe, and mid-range architectures using SNA and TCP/IP
protocols. Specific connectivity requirements for the Telocity Help Desk will
be determined and implemented during program start up.

Sutherland's network is also carefully monitored and protected against
intrusion. In addition to utilizing the Windows NT inherent security system,
Sutherland also uses Firewalls and 128-bit public/private key encryption
methods for data transfers to and from our clients' systems.

CALL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Sutherland will use Telocity's OSS enrollment application and Remedy for call
management and problem resolution. All necessary hardware, software licenses,
and requisite training will be provided to Sutherland by Telocity.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The following standard reports are available and are delivered weekly (or on an
as-needed basis) and are available via e-mail:

[*]

Other standard reports will be available depending upon the capabilities of the
OSS application and Remedy AR. These reports will be developed jointly by
Telocity and Sutherland during the detailed requirements definitions phase.

Additional reporting requirements for Telocity will be determined during
program start up. Ad-hoc reports are available at an additional charge.

IMPLEMENTATION PLAN

Sutherland's implementation approach typically spans [*] days from initiation
to transition of calls to the Help Desk at Sutherland. The following describe
the primary activities associated with program setup.

KICKOFF MEETING

As soon as possible following final contract negotiations, a kickoff meeting
will be held to ensure clear understanding of the program objectives and
methods by both parties. The implementation plan developed by the Sutherland
team will be reviewed at that time, as will timetables for subsequent meetings
between Telocity and Sutherland.

PERSONNEL HIRING AND STAFFING

By virtue of our long term growth and experience in setting up information
technology centers, Sutherland has become extremely adept at staffing the
appropriate people for the task at hand. Selection of employees for specific
programs is based on the both the technical requirements and the culture of the
client environment. Sutherland has established thorough and rigid hiring
practices to ensure the proper selection of our support engineers.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DETAILED REQUIREMENTS DEFINITION

This effort will ensure that the program design and operations meet Telocity's
expectations and integrates seamlessly with existing operations. Tasks include
the definition of business processes, identification of escalation paths,
network connectivity requirements, data transfer requirements, and computer
resource specifications.

PHONE/ACD SETUP

The setup of the phone system and ACD is critical to the success of the program
and includes assignment of extensions for the Telocity/Sutherland team, setup
of the inbound call queue, custom call routing design and setup, call
accounting codes setup, voice-mail, and testing of all components.

CALL FLOW PROCESSES

These tasks include design of specific call flow procedures, escalation
procedures, and creation of documentation to be used by the TSEs once
operations commence. Any resulting modifications to other program components
are identified and implemented, as are the development of operating contingency
plans.

TRAINING

Training the Telocity/Sutherland team includes thorough understanding of
InterChange DSL, the environments in which it is used, applications used in
conjunction with InterChange DSL, use of the call tracking system and database,
call flow procedures, and escalation procedures. Only after a member of the
team is fully versed on these vital areas will they be ready to accept live
customer calls.

MONITORING AND REMOTE MONITORING

In accordance with our ISO 9002 certification all employees are monitored
regularly by their supervisors. Sutherland has the ability to make remote
monitoring available to Telocity through the use of a special extension on
Sutherland's phone switch. This would allow Telocity to monitor remotely at
will.

Mr. James Rohrer
Vice President & Customer Care Officer Telocity, Inc.
10355 N. De Anza Blvd.

Cupertino, CA 95014-2027

Dear Jim:

This letter will outline some of the changes/additions to the
Telocity/Sutherland partnership.

1.)      Program Headcount Pricing:
         Any additions to program headcount will be invoiced to Telocity,
         effective the month in which they are added to the program, at the
         effective rate of Six Thousand ($6000) dollars per support
         representative. If representatives are added during the month, the
         associated fee will be prorated over the remainder of that month, on a
         full week basis, at the prevailing rates.

2.)      Program Expansion:
         Effective October 25, 1999, SGL will add, at your request, an
         additional five (5) headcount to the existing Telocity inbound
         technical support center. These individuals will be added at our San
         Diego facility. This will bring the program headcount to twenty (20)
         support representatives.

3.)      Headcount Reduction:
         According the Terms and Condition of the Telocity/SGL contract, we
         require 30 days notice to increase the size of the program. Should it
         be necessary to reduce the size of the program, outside of a formal
         termination notice, SGL will require 30 days notice for this process as
         well. However, in both instances, we will add/delete headcount as
         quickly as possible to meet your schedules.

These changes, except for the addition of personnel, will be documented as an
addendum to the original Statement Of Work. The addition of personnel will only
require written permission to add them, as outlined in this letter.

Jim, I hope this additional information is helpful to you. SGL is very excited
about this program, and the ensuing relationship. We will do everything
necessary to ensure the success of it as well as your company.

Please indicate your acceptance of these terms below.

Sincerely,

Thomas J. McGrath
Director, Business Development

Mr. James Rohrer

Vice President & Customer Care Officer
Telocity
10355 N. De Anza Blvd.
Cupertino, CA 95014-2027

Dear Jim:

This will outline our understanding, and the subsequent pricing, for the call
flow routing you have requested between SGL and your customer care vendor.

To review, all calls to the 1-888-SPEED49 Telocity branded toll free number will
come into an AT&T central cloud where they will be routed, based on customer
selection, to the appropriate location. The customers will hear the IVR greeting
saying "press 1 for sales.. press 2 for tech support.. etc." then make their
choice. All calls for pre-sales support, sales or customer service will be
routed through the cloud to your customer care vendor. All calls for technical
support will be routed to SGL.

The costs involved include a combination of the number of calls AND the average
amount of time they listen to this greeting before making their choice. Again,
these costs below include the switching technology only, and do not include any
of the actual usage charges on the lines themselves.

The pricing plan formula will be as follows:

         (Number of Inbound calls x $0.12 per call) (+) (Number of Inbound calls
         x Average Greeting Play Time (in min) x $0.10).

Jim, if you are in agreement with this, please indicate your acceptance of these
terms below.

Sincerely,

Thomas J. McGrath
Director, Business Development
