October,  2000 among Brad,  Brent,  Second  Stage and  EasyTrivia,  Second Stage
agreed to provide EasyTrivia with certain financing in order to allow EasyTrivia
to develop its online  trivia game show business and Brad,  Brent,  Second Stage
and EasyTrivia agreed to enter into this Agreement.

     NOW  THEREFORE in  consideration  of the mutual  covenants  and  agreements
hereinafter  set forth,  and in  consideration  of the sum of $2.00 paid by each
party  to each of the  other  parties  (the  receipt  and  sufficiency  of which
consideration is hereby acknowledged by all parties) the parties hereto agree as
follows:

1.   THE FIRST ADVANCE

1.1  EasyTrivia  acknowledges  that it is currently  indebted to Second Stage in
the amount of US$60,000 (the "First Advance"). The First Advance is evidenced by
a promissory  note dated  effective as of the 25th day of  September,  2000 (the
"Promissory  Note"),  a copy  of  which  is  attached  as  Schedule  "A" to this
Agreement.

2.   THE SECOND ADVANCE

2.1  Second Stage will,  on or before  March 30, 2001,  subject to the terms and
conditions  of this  Agreement,  make  further  advances to  EasyTrivia,  not to
exceed, in the aggregate,  US$65,000 (the "Second Advance"),  for the purpose of
financing the business and operations of EasyTrivia.

3.   THE THIRD ADVANCE

3.1  If, on May 31, 2001,  EasyTrivia has  cumulative  cash revenues of at least
US$390,000:

     (a)  Second  Stage  will,  by June 15,  2001,  make a  further  advance  of
          US$100,000  (the "Third  Advance")  to  EasyTrivia  for the purpose of
          financing the business and operations of EasyTrivia; and

     (b)  Brad and Brent will each have the option,  exercisable by delivering a
          written notice to Second Stage before June 15, 2001, to purchase 49 of
          the issued and outstanding  common shares in the capital of EasyTrivia
          from  Second  Stage for US$1.00  per share.  3.2 If, on May 31,  2001,
          EasyTrivia  has  cumulative  cash revenues of at least  US$390,000 and
          Second Stage does not make the Third Advance to EasyTrivia by June 15,
          2001,  Brad and  Brent  will  each  have the  option,  exercisable  by
          delivering a written  notice to Second  Stage before July 2, 2001,  to
          purchase  from Second Stage 100 of the issued and  outstanding  common
          shares in the capital of  EasyTrivia  and 50% of the then  outstanding
          indebtedness  of  EasyTrivia  to Second Stage for a purchase  price of
          US$100.  The option to purchase  contained in this Section 3.2 will be
          the only  remedy  available  to Brad and Brent for a failure by Second
          Stage to make the Third Advance.

                                                                             -2-

4.   MUTUAL RELEASES

4.1  If Brad and Brent exercise the option to purchase  contained in Section 3.2
of this  Agreement,  the parties to this  Agreement  will, on the closing of the
transaction contemplated by Section 3.2, provide mutual releases of and from all
manner of claims whatsoever in a form satisfactory to the parties solicitors.

5.   ALLOTMENT OF SHARES

5.1  The  parties  agree  that no  additional  common  shares in the  capital of
EasyTrivia or  securities,  options,  warrants or other rights to acquire common
shares in the capital of  EasyTrivia  will be  allotted or issued by  EasyTrivia
before  August 1, 2001 without the prior written  consent of Second Stage,  Brad
and Brent.

6.   COMPULSORY BUY-OUT

6.1  If Brad and Brent  exercise  the option to  purchase  contained  in Section
3.1(b) and Brad and Brent each purchase 49 of the issued and outstanding  common
shares in the capital of EasyTrivia from Second Stage as  contemplated  therein,
then at any time after such purchase either of Brad or Brent (the "Offeror") may
send a notice (the  "Notice") to the other (the "Other")  which shall contain an
offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding common shares in the capital
of EasyTrivia  owned by the Other at the price and on the terms set out therein,
and an offer to sell all of the  issued  and  outstanding  common  shares in the
capital  of  EasyTrivia  owned by the  Offeror at the same price and on the same
terms.

6.2  The Other may, within seven days after receipt of the Notice, accept either
of the offers  contained  therein and if the offer to purchase is accepted or if
the Other does not accept  either  offer  within the seven day period,  then the
Other  shall  sell  and  the  Offeror  shall  purchase  all  of the  issued  and
outstanding common shares in the capital of EasyTrivia owned by the Other all in
accordance with the Notice.

6.3  If the Other  accepts  the offer to sell all of the issued and  outstanding
common shares in the capital of  EasyTrivia  owned by the Offeror then the Other
shall  purchase and the Offeror shall sell all the said shares all in accordance
with the Notice.

6.4  Notwithstanding  any closing date stipulated in the Notice,  the closing of
the purchase and sale shall take place on the date which is seven  business days
following the acceptance or deemed  acceptance of either of the offers contained
in the Notice by the Other.

6.5  If the purchaser defaults in payment of the purchase price in full and such
default is not cured within 15 days, the vendor, in addition to any other rights
he may have, may by notice to the purchaser terminate the agreement for the sale
of the issued and outstanding  common shares in the capital of EasyTrivia  owned
by him and elect to purchase  the issued and  outstanding  common  shares in the
capital of  EasyTrivia  owned by the purchaser at the price and on the terms set
out in the notice and the  transaction  shall be completed on the 21st day after
such default has occurred.

                                                                             -3-

The Consultant  acknowledges and agrees as follows with respect to the ownership
of rights by the Corporation and the limitation of the Consultant's  rights:

     (a)  Nothing contained in this Agreement will be construed as an assignment
          to the Consultant of any right,  title or interest in the Confidential
          Information.   All  right,   title  and   interest   relating  to  the
          Confidential Information is expressly reserved by the Corporation.

     (b)  The Consultant  acquires no Intellectual  Property Rights in, and will
          make prompt and full  disclosure to the Corporation of, any discovery,
          invention,  development,  production,  process,  improvement  or  work
          product, including, but not limited to, documents,  written materials,
          programs,  designs,  discs and tapes (the "Work  Products")  resulting
          from,  derived  from or  otherwise  related  to the  provision  of the
          Services by the Consultant or the Confidential  Information.  All such

          property  of  the   Corporation.   This  Agreement   constitutes   the
          Consultant's  absolute,   unconditional  and  irrevocable  assignment,
          transfer and conveyance of all past, present and future right,  title,
          benefit and  interest in and to all  Intellectual  Property  Rights in
          respect of such Work Products.  The Consultant  will promptly and duly
          execute and deliver to the  Corporation  such  further  documents  and
          assurances  and take such further action as the  Corporation  may from
          time to time request in order to more effectively carry out the intent
          and  purpose  of  this  Article,  and to  establish  and  protect  the
          Intellectual   Property   Rights,   interests   and  remedies  of  the
          Corporation.

                                                                             -5-

     (c)  The  Consultant  will  not at any  time  apply  for  any  Intellectual
          Property  Rights that would affect the ownership by the Corporation of
          any  Intellectual  Property Rights  associated  with the  Confidential
          Information  or the  Work  Products  or file  any  document  with  any
          government  authority  anywhere in the world or take any other  action
          which could affect such ownership of any Intellectual  Property Rights
          associated with the  Confidential  Information or the Work Products or
          aid or abet anyone else in doing so. To the extent that  copyright may
          subsist  in the  Confidential  Information  or the Work  Products  the
          Consultant hereby waives all past, present and future moral rights the
          Consultant may have.

          any person employed by any member of the Group, or persuade or attempt
          to persuade any such  individual  to terminate  his or her contract or
          employment with any member of the Group.

     (d)  The  Consultant  will not  directly  or  indirectly  impair or seek to
