                     SUBLEASE AND EQUIPMENT LEASE AGREEMENT

         This SUBLEASE AND EQUIPMENT LEASE AGREEMENT is effective as of October
1, 1999 ("Agreement") by and between Zengine, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Sublessee"), and Miami Computer Supply Corporation, an Ohio corporation, the
successor in interest to TBS Printware Corporation, a California corporation
("Sublessor"), individually a "party," and collectively, the "parties."

                                    RECITALS

         WHEREAS, TBS Printware Corporation entered into a lease agreement (the
"Master Agreement") dated February 7, 1996, with SSMRT, Pacific Business Center
(1), Inc. ("Landlord"), a copy of which is set forth in SCHEDULE A, attached
hereto and made a part hereof, for certain real estate located at 6100 Stewart
Avenue, Fremont, California 95438 (the "Leased Property") as defined in the
Master Agreement;

         WHEREAS, TBS Printware Corporation merged with and into Miami Computer
Supply Corporation effective January 3, 2000;

         WHEREAS, Sublessor desires to sublease to Sublessee and Sublessee
desires to sublease from Sublessor certain office and warehouse space within the
Leased Property as set forth in SCHEDULE B, attached hereto and made a part
thereof (the "Premises");

         WHEREAS, Sublessor desires to lease the equipment owned by Sublessor
which is listed on SCHEDULE C, attached hereto and made a part hereof (the
"Equipment").

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements and obligations set
forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, for
themselves, their sucessors and assigns, hereby agree as follows:

1.       GRANT.

         1.1 Sublessor hereby subleases the Premises to Sublessee, subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

         1.2 Sublessor hereby leases the Equipment to Sublessee, subject to the

Page 2

         2.2 Sublessee shall assume and perform all monetary and nonmonetary
obligations of the Sublessor, as Sublessee in the Master Agreement to the extent
the terms and conditions are applicable to the Premises, and to pay rent as set
forth in Section 5.1 hereof. Sublessee specifically acknowledges that the Master
Agreement is a triple net lease and therefore the monetary obligations it is
assuming include, but are not limited to, its proportionate share of all
property taxes on the Premises, applicable insurance, utilities, assessments and
maintenance of the premises. Sublessee acknowledges it has reviewed the terms of
the Master Agreement and agrees to pay these monetary obligations.

         2.3 Neither Sublessor nor Sublessee shall commit or permit to be
committed on the Premises any act or omission that shall violate any term or
condition of the Master Agreement or breach the terms of the Master Agreement or
cause the Master Agreement to be terminated.

3.       PROVISIONS CONSTITUTING EQUIPMENT LEASE.

         3.1 This Agreement constitutes a net equipment lease and therefore
Sublessee's monetary obligations may include, in addition to the Equipment Rent,
property taxes, insurance, assessments and maintenance. Sublessee's obligation
to pay Equipment Rent and all other amounts due hereunder is absolute and
unconditional and is not subject to any abatement, reduction, set-off, defense,
counterclaim, interruption, deferment or recoupment for any reason whatsoever.

         3.2 Sublessee will pay when due or reimburse Sublessor for all taxes,
fees or any other charges (together with any related interest or penalties not
arising from the willful misconduct or gross negligence of Sublessor) accrued
for or arising during the Term of this Agreement against Sublessor, Sublessee or
the Equipment by any governmental authority (except only Federal, state, local
and franchise taxes on the capital or the net income of Sublessor). Sublessor
will file all personal property tax returns for the Equipment and pay all such
property taxes due. Sublessee will reimburse Sublessor for all such property
taxes within thirty (30) days of receipt of an invoice.

         3.3 Sublessee will maintain the Equipment in good operating order and
appearance, protect the Equipment from material deterioration, other than normal
wear and tear, and will not use the Equipment for any purpose other than that
for which it was designed. If commercially available and considered common
business practice for each item of Equipment, Sublessee will maintain in force a
standard maintenance contract with the manufacturer of the Equipment, or another
party acceptable to Sublessor, and will provide Sublessor with a complete copy
of that contract.

         3.4 Upon reasonable advance notice, Sublessee, during reasonable
business hours and subject to Sublessee's security requirements, will make the
Equipment and its related log and maintenance records available to Sublessor for
inspection, which inspection shall not interfere with Sublessee's business
operations.

4.       TERM.

         4.1 The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof
and shall terminate on May 1, 2001 (the "Term").

5.       RENT.

         5.1 Sublessee shall pay to Sublessor rent ("Premises Rent") for the
sublease of the Premises in the amount of $10,416.67 per month (plus its
pro-rata share of the other charges as required by the Master Agreement) (in
lawful money of the United States) in advance on the first day of each calendar
month during the Term of this Agreement. If any Premises Rent payment is not
made by the date due, Sublessee will pay a Late Charge on the overdue amount. A
Late Charge shall mean five percent (5%) of the payment due.

         5.2 Sublessee shall pay to the Sublessor rent ("Equipment Rent") in the
amount of $2,083.33 per month (plus its pro-rata share of the other charges as
may be required by Section 3.1) (in lawful money of the United States) in
advance of the first day of each calendar month during the Term of this
Agreement. If any Equipment Rent is not paid by the due date, Sublessee will pay
a Late Charge on the overdue amount.

6.       USE.

         6.1 The Premises and Equipment shall be used only for the purpose of
operating an e-commerce services business and for no other purpose without the
prior express and written consent of the Sublessor.

7.       CONDITION OF THE PREMISES AND EQUIPMENT.

         7.1 Sublessee accepts the Premises and Equipment in its condition as of
the date hereof. Upon termination (by expiration or otherwise) of this
Agreement, Sublessee shall, pursuant to Sublessor's instructions and at
Sublessee's full expense (including, without limitation, expenses of
transportation and in transit insurance), return the Equipment to Sublessor in
the same operating order, repair, condition and appearance as when received,
less normal depreciation and wear and tear. Sublessee shall return the Equipment
to Sublessor at 6100 Stewart Avenue, Fremont, California 94538 or at such other
address within the continental United States as directed by Sublessor, provided,
however, that Sublessee's expense shall be limited to the cost of returning the
equipment to Sublessor's address as set forth herein.

         7.2 Upon request, Sublessee will mark the Equipment indicating
Sublessor's interest with labels provided by Sublessor. Sublessee will keep all
Equipment free from any other marking or labeling which might be interpreted as
a claim of ownership.

8.       TITLE; RELOCATION OR SUBLEASE; AND ASSIGNMENT.

         8.1 Sublessee holds the Equipment subject and subordinate to the rights
of the Owner (if other than the Sublessor), the Sublessor and any Secured Party.
Sublessee authorizes Sublessor, as Sublessee's agent, and at Sublessor's
expense, to prepare, execute and file in Sublessee's name one or more
precautionary Uniform Commercial Code financing statements showing the interest
of the Owner, Sublessor, and any Assignee or Secured Party in the Equipment.
Sublessee will, at its expense, keep the Equipment free and clear from any liens
or encumbrances of any kind (except any caused by Sublessor) and will indemnify
and hold the Owner (if other than the Sublessor), the Sublessor, any Assignee
and Secured Party harmless from and against any loss caused by Sublessee's
failure to do so, except where such failure is caused by Sublessor.

         8.2 Upon prior written notice, Sublessee may relocate Equipment to any
location within the continental United States provided: (i) Sublessee notifies
the Sublessor of such relocation and the new address at which the Equipment will
be located in writing; (ii) the Equipment will not be used by an entity exempt
from federal income tax, and (iii) all additional costs (including any
administrative fees, additional taxes and insurance coverage) are reconciled and
promptly paid by Sublessee.

         8.3 Sublessee may sublease the Equipment upon the consent of the
Sublessor and any Secured Party, in their sole discretion, and any such consent
to sublease will be conditioned upon the following: (i) Sublessee meets the
relocation requirements set out in Section 9.2, above, (ii) Sublessee assigns
its rights in the sublease to Sublessor and any Secured Party as additional
collateral and security, (iii) Sublessee's obligation to maintain and insure the
Equipment is not altered, (iv) all financing statements required to continue any
Secured Party's prior perfected security interest are filed, and (v) Sublessee
executes sublease documents acceptable to Sublessor.

         8.4 No relocation or sublease will relieve Sublessee from any of its
obligations under this Agreement.

         8.5 The terms and conditions of this Agreement permit Sublessor to sell
and/or assign or transfer its interest or grant a security interest in each item
of Equipment to a Secured Party or Assignee. In that event, the term "Sublessor"
will mean the Assignee and any Secured Party. However, any assignment, sale, or
other transfer by Sublessor will not relieve Sublessor of its obligations to
Sublessee and will not materially change Sublessee's duties or materially
increase the burdens or risks imposed on Sublessee. The Sublessee consents to
and will acknowledge such assignments in a written notice given to Sublessor.
Sublessee also agrees that:

                  (a) Upon default by the Sublessor or otherwise as set forth in
Sublessor's agreement with the Secured Party, the Secured Party will be entitled
to exercise all of Sublessor's rights, but will not be obligated to perform any
of the obligations of Sublessor. The Secured Party will not disturb Sublessee's
quiet and peaceful possession and unrestricted use of the

<PAGE>

Sublease and Equipment Lease Agreement
Page 5

Equipment so long as Sublessee is not in default and the Secured Party continues
to receive all Equipment Rent payable under this Agreement;

                  (b) Sublessee will pay all Equipment Rent and all other
amounts payable to the Secured Party, despite any defense or claim which it has
against Sublessor. Sublessee reserves its right to have recourse directly
against Sublessor for any defense or claim; and

                  (c) Subject to and without impairment of Sublessee's leasehold
rights in the Equipment, Sublessee holds the Equipment for the Secured Party to
the extent of the Secured Party's rights in the Equipment.

9.       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.

         9.1 Sublessee hereby represents and warrants to Sublessor:

                  (a) The Sublessee is a corporation duly organized and validly
existing in good standing under the laws of Delaware, is duly qualified to do
business in each jurisdiction (including the jurisdiction where the Premises and
the Equipment are located) where its ownership or lease of property or the
conduct of its business requires such qualification, except for where such lack
of qualification would not have a material adverse effect on the Sublessee's
business, and has full corporate power and authority to hold property under this
Agreement and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (b) The execution and delivery by the Sublessee of this
Agreement and its performance thereunder have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action on the part of the Sublessee, and this Agreement is
not inconsistent with the Sublessee's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws,
does not contravene any law or governmental rule, regulation or order applicable
to it, does not and will not contravene any provision of, or constitute a
default under, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other instrument to which it
is a party or by which it is bound, and this Agreement constitutes the legal,
valid and binding agreement of the Sublessee, enforceable against Sublessee in
accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of applicable bankruptcy and
other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and rules of law
concerning equitable remedies.

                  (c) The Equipment is personal property and when subjected to
use by the Sublessee will not be or become fixtures under applicable law.

         9.2 Sublessor hereby represents and warrants and covenants to
Sublessee:

                  (a) The Sublessor is a corporation duly organized and validly

business,

and has full corporate power and authority to hold property under this Agreement
and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

                  (b) The execution and delivery by the Sublessor of this
Agreement and its performance thereunder have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action on the part of the Sublessor, and this Agreement is
not inconsistent with the Sublessor's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws, does
not contravene any law or governmental rule, regulation or order applicable to
it, does not and will not contravene any provision of, or constitute a default
under, any indenture, mortgage, contract or other instrument to which it is a

laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and rules of law concerning
equitable remedies.

                  (c) The Equipment is personal property and when subjected to
use by the Sublessee will not be or become fixtures under applicable law.

                  (d) Sublessor warrants to Sublessee that, so long as Sublessee
is not in default, Sublessor will not disturb Sublessee's quiet and peaceful
possession, and unrestricted use of the Premises and the Equipment.

                  (e) To the extent permitted by the manufacturer, Sublessor
assigns to Sublessee during the Term of this Agreement any manufacturer's
warranties for the Equipment. SUBLESSOR MAKES NO OTHER WARRANTY, WITH RESPECT TO
THE EQUIPMENT, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED AS TO ANY MATTER WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE MERCHANTABILITY OF THE EQUIPMENT OR ITS FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Sublessor is not responsible for any liability, claim, loss,
damage or expense of any kind (including strict liability in tort) caused by the
Equipment except for any loss or damage finally determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction to have been directly caused by the misconduct or
negligence of Sublessor. In no event shall Sublessor responsible for special,
incidental, consequential or punitive damages.

10.      INDEMNITY.

         10.1 With regard to bodily injury and property damage liability only,
Sublessee will indemnify and hold Sublessor, any Assignee and any Secured Party
harmless from and against any and all claims, costs, expenses, damages and
liabilities, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of the ownership
(for strict liability in tort only), selection, possession, leasing, operation,
control, use, maintenance, delivery, return or other disposition of the
Equipment during the Term of this Agreement. However, Sublessee is not
responsible to a party indemnified hereunder for any claims, costs, expenses,
damages and liabilities occasioned by the misconduct or negligence of such
indemnified party. Sublessor agrees to carry bodily injury and property damage
liability insurance during the Term of this Agreement in amounts and against
risks customarily insured against by the Sublessor on equipment owned by it. Any
amounts

<PAGE>

Sublease and Equipment Lease Agreement
Page 7

received by Sublessor under the insurance will be credited against Sublessee's
obligations under this Section.

11.      RISK OF LOSS.

         11.1 Effective upon delivery and until the Equipment is returned
pursuant to Section 7.1 hereof, Sublessor shall have responsibility for all
risks of physical damage to or loss or destruction of the Equipment. Sublessor
will carry casualty insurance for each item of Equipment in an amount not less
than the Casualty Value. All policies for such insurance will name the Sublessor
and any Secured Party as additional insureds and as loss payees, and will
provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to the Sublessor of
cancellation or expiration, and will insure Sublessor's interests regardless of
any breach or violation by Sublessee of any representation, warranty or
condition contained in such policies and will be primary without right to
contribution from any insurance effected by Sublessor. Upon the execution of
this Agreement, the Sublessee will furnish appropriate evidence of such
insurance acceptable to Sublessor.

         11.2 Sublessee will promptly repair any damaged item of Equipment
unless such Equipment has suffered a Casualty Loss. Within fifteen (15) days of
a Casualty Loss, Sublessee will provide written notice of that loss to Sublessor
and Sublessee will, at Sublessee's option, either (a) replace the item of
Equipment with Like Equipment and marketable title to the Like Equipment will
automatically vest in Sublessor, or (b) pay the Casualty Value and after that
payment and the payment of all other amounts due and owing with respect to that
item of Equipment, Sublessee's obligation to pay further Equipment Rent for that
item of Equipment will cease.

12.      DEFAULT; REMEDIES; MITIGATION.

         12.1 The occurrence of any one or more of the following Events of
Default constitutes a default under this Agreement:

                  (a) Sublessee's failure to pay the Premises Rent or the
Equipment Rent or other amounts payable by Sublessee when due if that failure
continues for five (5) business days after written notice; or

                  (b) Sublessee's failure to perform any other term or condition
of this Agreement or the material inaccuracy of any representation or warranty
made by the Sublessee in this Agreement or in any document or certificate
furnished to the Sublessor hereunder if that failure or inaccuracy continues for
ten (10) business days after written notice; or

                  (c) An assignment by Sublessee for the benefit of its
creditors, the failure by Sublessee to pay its debts when due, the insolvency of
Sublessee, the filing by Sublessee or the filing against Sublessee of any
petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or for the appointment of a
trustee or other officer with similar powers, the adjudication of Sublessee as

<PAGE>

Sublease and Equipment Lease Agreement
Page 8

insolvent, the liquidation of Sublessee, or the taking of any action for the
purpose of the foregoing which, in the case of an involuntary petition or
action, remains unstayed and undismissed for at least sixty (60) days.

         12.2 Upon the occurrence of any of the above Events of Default,
Sublessor, at its option, may:

                  (a)      enforce Sublessee's performance of the provisions of
this Agreement by appropriate court action in law or in equity;

                  (b)      recover from Sublessee any damages and or expenses,
including Default Costs;

                  (c) if a default in the payment of Equipment Rent, with notice
and demand, recover all sums due and accelerate and recover the present value of
the remaining payment stream of all Equipment Rent due hereunder (discounted at
the same rate of interest at which Equipment was discounted with a Secured Party
plus any prepayment fees charged to Sublessor by the Secured Party or, if there
is no Secured Party, then discounted at 6%) together with all Equipment Rent and
other amounts currently, due as liquidated damages and not as a penalty;

                  (d) with reasonable prior notice and pursuant to the process
of law and in compliance with Sublessee's security requirements, Sublessor may
enter on Sublessee's premises to remove and repossess the Equipment without
being liable to Sublessee for damages due to the repossession except those
resulting from Sublessor's, its Assignees', agents' or representatives' gross
negligence or willful misconduct; and

                  (e) pursue any other remedy permitted by law or equity.

         The above remedies, in Sublessor's discretion and to the extent
permitted by law, are cumulative and may be exercised successively or
concurrently.

         12.3 Upon return of the Equipment pursuant to the terms of Section
12.2, Sublessor will use its best efforts in accordance with its normal business
procedures (and without obligation to give any priority to such Equipment) to
mitigate Sublessor's damages as described below. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THIS
SECTION, SUBLESSEE HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHTS NOW OR HEREAFTER CONFERRED BY
STATUTE OR OTHERWISE WHICH MAY REQUIRE SUBLESSOR TO MITIGATE ITS DAMAGES OR
MODIFY ANY OF SUBLESSOR'S RIGHTS OR REMEDIES STATED HEREIN. Sublessor may sell,
lease or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Equipment at a public or
private sale for cash or credit with the privilege of purchasing the Equipment.
The proceeds from any sale, lease or other disposition of the Equipment are
defined as either:

                  (a) if sold or otherwise disposed of, the cash proceeds less
the Fair Market Value of the Equipment at the expiration of the Term less the
Default Costs; or

<PAGE>

Sublease and Equipment Lease Agreement
Page 9

                  (b) if leased, the present value (discounted at 3 percent (3%)
over the interest rate of U.S. Treasury Notes of comparable maturity to the term
of the re-lease) of the rentals for a term not to exceed the Term, less the
Default Costs.

         Any proceeds will be applied against liquidated damages and any other
sums due to Sublessor from Sublessee. However, Sublessee is liable to Sublessor
for, and Sublessor may recover, the amount by which the proceeds are less than
the liquidated damages and other sums due to Sublessor from Sublessee.

13.      ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS.

         13.1 Sublessee will notify Sublessor of any proposed Merger at least
twenty (20) days prior to the closing date thereof. Sublessor may, in its
discretion, either (i) consent to the assignment of this Agreement to the
successor entity (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned
or delayed), or (ii) terminate this Agreement. If Sublessor elects to consent to
the assignment, Sublessee and its successor will sign the assignment
documentation provided by Sublessor. If Sublessor elects to terminate this
Agreement, then Sublessee will pay Sublessor all amounts then due and owing and
a termination fee equal to the present value (discounted at 6%) of the remaining
Premises Rent and Equipment Rent for the balance of the Term, and will return
the Equipment in accordance with Section 7.2.

         13.2 This Agreement supersedes all other oral or written agreements or
understandings between the parties concerning the sublease of the Premises and
the lease of the Equipment. Any amendment of this Agreement, may only be
accomplished by a writing signed by the party against whom the amendment is
sought to be enforced.

         13.3 No action taken by Sublessor or Sublessor will be deemed to
constitute a waiver of compliance with any representation, warranty or covenant
contained in this Agreement. The waiver by Sublessor or Sublessee of a breach of
any provision of this Agreement will not operate or be construed as a waiver of
any subsequent breach.

         13.4 This Agreement is binding upon, and inures to the benefit of the
parties hereto and their permitted successors and assigns. Sublessee May Not
Assign Its Rights Or Obligations, Except As Provided In Section 13.1. Nothing in
this Agreement is intended to benefit any person not a party to this Agreement.

         13.5 All agreements, obligations, representations and warranties
contained in this Agreement, or in any document delivered in connection
herewith, are for the benefit of Sublessor and any Assignee or Secured Party and
survive the execution, delivery, expiration or termination of this Agreement.

         13.6 Any notice, request or other communication to either party by the
other will be given in writing and deemed received upon the earlier of (i)
actual receipt, or (ii) three (3) days

<PAGE>

Company).

or encumbrances created by or through the Purchasers or imposed by this

         SECTION 5.9.  ASSETS. The Company has good and marketable title to, or
a valid leasehold interest in, the properties and assets owned, leased or used
by it or shown on the Latest Balance Sheet or acquired thereafter, free and
clear of all liens, security interests, charges and encumbrances, except for
properties and assets disposed of in the ordinary course of business since the
date of the Latest Balance Sheet and except for perfected liens properly filed

fees and charges not yet due and payable. The Company's buildings, equipment and
other tangible assets are in good operating condition in all material respects.

         SECTION 5.10. TAX MATTERS. The Company has filed all tax returns
which it is required to file under applicable laws and regulations; all such

unresolved questions or claims concerning the Company's tax liability. The
Company has not made an election under Sections 341(f) of the Internal

         SECTION 5.11. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. (a) Schedule 5.11 contains a
complete list and an accurate functional description by category and indication
of status (completed or in process) of all Patents, Trademarks, Software,
Licenses-In, Licenses-Out and other material items of Intellectual Property
which are owned, licensed by, licensed to, used or held for use in or necessary
for the conduct of the business of the Company as such business is currently
conducted and presently contemplated to be conducted, or as to which the Company
has a contractual right to an assignment, including, in the case of
Licenses-Out, if any, an indication of whether each such License-Out is
exclusive or non-exclusive and whether it is terminable by the Company.

         (b) Other than the lien of the Parent's lenders and Intellectual
Property covered by Licenses-In, the rights of the Company in and to each item
of the Intellectual Property are owned outright by the Company, free and clear
of any liens, encumbrances, security interests and other rights. Except to the
extent provided in the Licenses-In, the Company's rights in and to the
Intellectual Property are freely assignable in its own name, including the right
to create derivatives, and the Company is under no obligation to pay any royalty
or other compensation to any third party or to obtain any approval or consent
for use of any of the Intellectual Property. None of the Intellectual Property
is subject to any outstanding judgment, order, decree, stipulation, injunction
or charge; no charge, complaint, action, suit, proceeding, hearing,
investigation, claim, or demand is pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened, which challenges the legality, validity, enforceability, use or
ownership of any of the Intellectual Property; and, except to the extent
provided in the Licenses-Out [and contracts to provide services to third
parties], the Company has never agreed to indemnify any Person for or against
any interference, infringement, misappropriation, or other conflict with respect
to Intellectual Property.

         (c) No breach or default (or event which with notice or lapse of time
or both would result in a breach or default) by the Company exists or has
occurred under any License-In or other agreement pursuant to which the Company
uses any Intellectual Property, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement will not violate or conflict with or constitute a
breach or default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time or both,
would constitute a breach or default) or result in a forfeiture under, or
constitute a basis for termination of any such License-In or other agreement,
except where such breaches, defaults, violations, conflicts or other events
would not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse
Effect.

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

         (d) The Company owns or has the right to use all the Intellectual
Property necessary to provide, produce, sell and license the services and
products currently provided, produced, sold and licensed by the Company, and to
conduct the Company's business as presently conducted, and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby will not materially alter or impair any
such rights, including any right of the Company to use or sublicense any
Intellectual Property owned by others. The Company has no knowledge of any
reason the Company will not be able to continue to own, possess or have access
to, and to use, license and sub-license on reasonable terms, all Intellectual
Property and other proprietary rights necessary for the lawful conduct of its
business as presently conducted and currently contemplated to be conducted,
without any infringement or conflict with the rights of others.

         (e) To the Company's knowledge, no Intellectual Property owned by the
Company, and no product or service practiced, offered, licensed, sold or under
development by the Company, infringes any trademark, trade name, copyright,
trade secret, patent, right of publicity, right of privacy or other proprietary
right of any Person or, except for co-authorship of content relating to the
Company's agreement with Mpath Interactive, Inc., would give rise to an
obligation to render an accounting to any Person as a result of co-authorship,
co-invention or an express or implied contract for any use or transfer which, in
any such case, would have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company. The Company
has received no notice of any patent, invention, trademark, copyright, service
mark, trade name or trade secret of any other Person alleging or threatening to
assert that the Company's use of any of the Intellectual Property infringes upon
or is in conflict with any intellectual property or proprietary rights of any
third party. The Company has no knowledge of any basis for any charge or claim,
threatened claim or any suit or action asserting any such infringement or
conflict or asserting that the Company does not have the legal right to own,
enforce, sell, license, sublicense, lease or otherwise use any such Intellectual
Property, process, product or service, and the Company has no knowledge of any
facts which should give such Person reason to believe that there exists any
basis for such claim, threatened claim or suit or that any such claim,
threatened claim or suit may be asserted or instituted in the future.

         (f) The Company has not sent or otherwise communicated to any other
Person any notice, charge, claim or assertion of, and the Company has no
knowledge of, any present, impending or threatened infringement by any other
Person of any Intellectual Property.

         (g) All the Company's Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights listed in
Schedule 5.11 as having been issued by, registered with or filed with the United
States Patent and Trademark Office or Register of Copyrights or the
corresponding offices of other countries identified in Schedule 5.11 of the
Schedule have been so duly registered, filed in or issued, as the case may be,
and have been properly maintained and renewed in accordance with all applicable
provisions of law and administrative regulations in the United States and each
such other country. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, the Company
has at all times diligently protected its rights in the Intellectual Property
and any related apparatus or processes and has maintained the confidentiality of
its trade secrets, pending patent applications, know-how and other confidential
Intellectual Property, and there have been no acts or omissions by the Company,
the result of which would be to compromise the rights of the Company to apply
for or enforce appropriate legal protection of such Intellectual Property.

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

         (h) No former employees or independent contractors of the Company or
Parent have any claims or rights to any of the Intellectual Property necessary
for the lawful conduct of the Company's business as now conducted. To the
knowledge of the Company, no employee of the Company is a party to or otherwise
bound by any agreement with or obligated to any other Person (including any
former employer) which in any respect conflicts with any obligation, commitment
or job responsibility of such employee to the Company under any agreement to
which currently he or she is a party or otherwise.

         (i) Schedule 5.11 identifies each Person to whom the Company has sold,
licensed, leased or otherwise transferred or granted any interest or rights to
any Intellectual Property, and the date of each such sale, license, lease or
other transfer or grant, other than Intellectual Property licensed to end users
pursuant to standard, non-exclusive "shrink wrap" license agreements in the
ordinary course of business, none of which is a license of any source code
("SHRINK WRAP LICENSES"). The Company has previously delivered or made available
to the Purchasers complete and accurate copies of all documents relating to each
such sale, license, lease or other transfer or grant.

         SECTION 5.12. ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES AND EVENTS. Except as set
forth on Schedule 5.12, since the date of the Latest Balance Sheet, the Company
has conducted its business only in the ordinary course and there has not been
any:

                       (a) increase by the Company of any bonuses, salaries, or
    other compensation to any stockholder, director, officer or employee or
    entry into any employment, severance or similar agreement with any director,
    officer or employee;

                       (b) damage to or destruction or loss of any asset or
    property of the Company, whether or not covered by insurance, materially and
    adversely affecting the properties, assets, business or financial condition
    of the Company;

                       (c) entry into, termination of, or receipt of notice of
    termination of any license, joint venture, credit or similar agreement;

                       (d) sale, lease or other disposition of any material
    asset or property of the Company, or mortgage, pledge or imposition of any
    lien or other encumbrance on any material asset or property of the Company,
    including the sale, lease or other disposition of any of the Intellectual
    Property (other than licenses in the ordinary course of business);

                       (e) declaration or payment or distribution of cash or
    other property to its stockholders with respect to its stock or purchase or
    redemption of any shares of its stock or any warrants, options or other
    rights to acquire its stock;

                       (f) mortgage or pledge of any of its properties or assets
    or imposition of any material lien, security, interest, charge or other
    encumbrance, except liens for current property taxes and other fees and
    charges not yet due and payable;

    Property or disclosure of any material proprietary confidential information

    aggregate in excess of $200,000.

    whether or not in the ordinary course of business;

                       (j) loans or advances by the Company to, guarantees by
    the Company for the benefit of, or any investments by the Company in, any
    Person in excess of $100,000 in the aggregate; or

                       (k) agreement, whether oral or written, by the Company to
    do any of the foregoing.

         SECTION 5.13. CONTRACTS; NO DEFAULTS. The Company has provided access
to the Purchasers to true and complete copies of all employment agreements,
written contracts and agreements involving performance of services or delivery
of goods or materials to or by the Company, each lease, rental, license and
conditional sale agreement affecting any real or personal property used, owned
or licensed by the Company, all agreements relating to Intellectual Property
used, owned or licensed by the Company, and all other contracts and agreements
to which the Company is a party or is bound, and a written summary of any oral
agreement of the type described above, in each case if the contract or agreement
involves the payment of $200,000 or more in either a single aggregate payment or
over a twelve month period. Each such contract is in full force and effect and,
to the Company's knowledge, is valid and enforceable in accordance with its
terms, subject to the Standard Exceptions. The Company is not in default with
respect to the performance of any Company obligations under any such contracts,
except for any default or defaults which would not, either individually or in
the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

         SECTION 5.14. LITIGATION. There are no actions, suits, arbitrations or
other proceedings, or, to the Company's knowledge investigations pending or, to
its knowledge, threatened against or affecting the Company before any court or
before any administrative agency or administrative officer or executive. There
are no actions, suits, arbitrations or other proceedings pending or, to its
knowledge, threatened against any member of management of the Company by reason
of the past employment relationship of any member of management.

key employee of the Company or any group of employees of the Company has any
plans to terminate employment with the Company. The Company has complied in all
material respects with all laws relating to the employment of labor, including
provisions thereof relating to wages, hours, equal opportunity, collective
bargaining and the payment of social security and other taxes, and the Company
is not aware that it has any material labor relations problems (including any
union organization activities, threatened or actual strikes or work stoppages or

consulting or similar agreements in conflict with the present or proposed
business activities of the Company, except for agreements between the Company
and its present and former employees.

         SECTION 5.16. ERISA. The Company does not have, and has never had, any
Plans or trusts subject to ERISA.

         SECTION 5.17. OFFERING. Subject to the truth of the representations and
warranties of the Purchasers contained in Section 6 hereof, the offer, sale and
issuance of the Common Stock as contemplated by this Agreement, to the Company's
knowledge, is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

         SECTION 5.18. FEES AND COMMISSIONS. Neither the Company nor the Parent
has retained any finder, broker, agent, financial adviser or other intermediary
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and neither
the Company nor the Parent owes any such fees to any person in connection
therewith.

         SECTION 5.19. ENVIRONMENTAL. (a) To the Company's knowledge, the
Company has complied in all material respects with all Environmental, Health,
and Safety Laws, and no notice of action, suit, proceeding, hearing,

<PAGE>

any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact

securities administrator; (iii) subject to a United States Postal Service false
representation order; or (iv) subject to any state administrative order entered
by a state securities administrator in which fraud or deceit was found.

SECTION 6.         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE PURCHASERS.

         Each Purchaser severally represents and warrants to the Company that:

         SECTION 6.1.  CONDUCT; ACTS AND PROCEEDINGS. During the last five
years, no Purchaser has been: (i) convicted of nor pleaded NOLO CONTENDERE to
any felony or misdemeanor in connection with the purchase or sale of any
security or in connection with the making of any false filing with the SEC or
any state securities administrator, or of any felony involving fraud or deceit,
including but not limited to, forgery, embezzlement, obtaining money under false
pretenses, larceny, conspiracy to defraud or theft; (ii) subject to any order,
judgment, or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction temporarily or
preliminarily restraining or enjoining, or are subject to any order, judgment,
or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently restraining or
enjoining that Person from engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in
connection with the purchase or sale of any security or in connection with the
making of any false filing with the SEC or any state securities administrator;
(iii) subject to a United States Postal Service false representation order; or
(iv) subject to any state administrative order entered by a state securities
administrator in which fraud or deceit was found. Such Purchaser has taken all
necessary action to authorize its execution, delivery and performance of and
under this Agreement and the Related Agreements. This Agreement and the Related
Agreements are the valid and binding agreements of such Purchaser and
enforceable against it in accordance with their respective terms, except for the
Standard Exceptions.

         SECTION 6.2.  INVESTMENT INTENT. Such Purchaser is acquiring the Common
Stock for its own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale or
other disposition in connection with, any distribution thereof, nor with any
present intention of selling or otherwise disposing of the same. Except for the
Related Agreements, each Purchaser represents that such Purchaser

                                      -15-

<PAGE>

does not have any contract, undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any
Person to sell, transfer or grant participations to such Person or to any third
Person, with respect to the Common Stock. Each Purchaser understands that stop
transfer instructions relating to the Common Stock will be placed in the
Company's stock register and that the certificates representing the Common Stock
will bear a legend which shall read:

         "The shares of Common Stock represented by this certificate have been
         issued pursuant to a claim of exemption from the registration or
         qualification requirements of federal and state securities laws and may
         not be sold, assigned, hypothecated, pledged or otherwise transferred
         without registration or qualification or otherwise except pursuant to
         an applicable exemption therefrom as evidenced by an opinion of counsel
         reasonably satisfactory to the issuer hereof."

         SECTION 6.3.  INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE; ACCREDITED INVESTOR STATUS. Such
Purchaser is experienced in evaluating and investing in companies such as the
Company, and has sufficient knowledge and experience in business and financial
matters to permit it to evaluate the merits and risks of an investment in the
Company. Such Purchaser is domiciled in the United States and an "accredited
investor" as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. Such
Purchaser acknowledges that the Common Stock being issued and sold has not been
registered under the Securities Act (or similar state laws), no federal or state
agency has made any finding or determination relating to the Common Stock and
such Common Stock is being issued and sold under exemptions from registration
provided in the Securities Act and under applicable state securities laws and,
therefore, cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities
Act or applicable state securities laws or an exemption from such registration
is available and must be held indefinitely. Accordingly, such Purchaser
represents and warrants that it is able to bear the economic risk of any
investment in the Common Stock for an indefinite period of time.

         SECTION 6.4.  POTENTIAL FOR LOSS; INFORMATION. Such Purchaser
recognizes that the purchase of the Common Stock entails significant risks, such
Purchaser recognizes and comprehends such risks, has weighed the risks against
the benefit of owning the Common Stock and has the economic ability to bear the
complete loss of the Purchaser's investment in the Company. Such Purchaser
represents that it has performed such investigation of the affairs of the
Company and the Parent as it has deemed necessary, has obtained the advice of
its legal advisors, and had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers
concerning the Common Stock and to obtain whatever information concerning the
Parent and the Company as has been requested by the Purchaser in order to make
its investment decision. Each Purchaser believes that an investment in the
Common Stock is suitable for it based upon its individual investment objectives
and financial needs and each Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its
individual current financial needs and has no need for liquidity of its
investment with respect to the Common Stock.

         SECTION 6.5.  BROKERS. Such Purchaser has not engaged any broker or
finder who is entitled to any fee or commission from the Parent or the Company
in connection with this Agreement, the Related Agreements or the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby.

                                      -16-

         SECTION 6.6.  WILBLAIRCO ASSOCIATES. Wilblairco Associates represents
that it is a general partnership duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of Illinois and has the requisite legal power to
execute, deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Related
Agreements and the agreements contemplated hereby and thereby.

         SECTION 6.7.  AT HOME CORPORATION. At Home Corporation represents that
it is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under

incur. The Company shall make all required securities filings under federal and
applicable state securities laws in connection with the issuance and sale of the
Common Stock.

<PAGE>

Company which has been approved by the stockholders of the Company in accordance

         SECTION 7.8.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS. Any arrangement between the
Company or any Subsidiary and the Parent or any subsidiary of the Parent, for
the provision of goods or services will be on terms and conditions substantially
similar to those available from a third party for the provision of comparable

         SECTION 7.9.  INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. The Company shall, and shall cause
each Subsidiary to, possess and maintain all material Intellectual Property
necessary to the conduct of their respective businesses and own all right, title
and interest in and to, or have a valid license for, all material Intellectual
Property used by the Company and each Subsidiary in the conduct of their
respective businesses. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary shall take any
action, or fail to take any action, which would result in the invalidity, abuse,

upon any rights of other Persons which, in either case, would reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.

         SECTION 7.10. PUBLIC DISCLOSURES. The Company shall not, nor shall it
permit any Subsidiary to, disclose any Purchaser's name or identity as an
investor in the Company in any press release or other public announcement or in

written consent of such Purchaser, unless such disclosure is required by
applicable law or governmental regulations or by order of a court of competent
jurisdiction, in which case prior to making such disclosure the Company shall
give written notice to such Purchaser describing in reasonable detail the
proposed content of such disclosure and shall permit the Purchaser to review and
comment upon the form and substance of such disclosure.

Agreement is owned by a Purchaser or their respective permitted successor and
assigns.

SECTION 8.         MISCELLANEOUS.

         SECTION 8.1.  BROKER'S INDEMNIFICATION. Each party will hold the other

signed by the Purchasers or their permitted successors and assigns.

         (b) This Agreement shall not be altered, amended or supplemented except

term, covenant, agreement or condition contained in this Agreement shall not be
deemed a waiver of any other term, covenant, agreement or condition, and any
waiver of any default in any such term, covenant, agreement or condition shall
not be deemed a waiver of any later default thereof or of any default of any
other term, covenant, agreement or condition.

         SECTION 8.4.  REPLACEMENT CERTIFICATES. (a) The Company will issue a
new certificate evidencing Common Stock in place of any such certificate alleged
to have been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, upon (i) receipt by the
Company, except as otherwise provided in Section 8.4(b), of indemnity
satisfactory to it, in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, (ii)
surrender and cancellation of such certificate if mutilated, and reimbursement
to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto.

officer of the beneficial owner, if a corporation, setting forth the fact of
loss, theft or destruction, and the Purchaser's or Affiliate's beneficial
ownership of the certificate at the time of such loss, theft or destruction,
shall be accepted as satisfactory evidence thereof, and no indemnity shall be
required as a condition to execution and

                                      -20-

efforts to limit disclosure to that purpose and to ensure maximum application of
all appropriate judicial safeguards (such as placing documents under seal). The
parties may each make press releases about the existence and contents of the
Agreement (except with respect to specific financial terms) with the prior
approval of the other of the contents of the press release, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. If the party from whom
approval is sought does not respond to a request to publish such press release
within five (5) business days of submission for approval, such press release
shall be deemed approved.

         (c) Upon termination of this Agreement or upon the written request of a
party, each party shall promptly return to the other all Confidential
