PERSONAL & CONFIDENTIAL

Mr. William B. Woahn
2184 North 180 West
Pleasant Grove, Utah   84062

Dear Bill:

     This letter will confirm our agreement ("Agreement") with respect to your
employment as President of InsurQuote Systems, Inc. ("ISI").

PART I - EMPLOYER - EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP

     The following terms and conditions set forth the rights, duties and
responsibilities regarding the employer - employee relationship between you and
ISI, including but not limited to the termination of that relationship:

     1. The term of employment will be from February 1, 1998 through January 31,
2003, unless sooner terminated as provided below. Either party may provide the
other party sixty (60) days written notice of its intention not to extend this
Agreement beyond the term stated above. If this Agreement is not terminated
effective as of January 31, 2003 in the manner stated above, it then shall be
automatically renewed on a year-to-year basis (each, a "Renewal Term") provided
that either party may provide the other party sixty (60) days written notice of
its intention not to extend the Agreement beyond any Renewal Term.

     2. You will serve as President of ISI. Your duties and responsibilities
shall include the duties and responsibilities for your corporate office and
position set forth in the Company's bylaws from time to time in effect and such
other duties and responsibilities as may be reasonably prescribed by the Board
of Directors, in all cases to be consistent with your corporate office and
position.

     3. During the term of this Agreement you agree to devote your full and
undivided business time and attention, to the business of ISI. You agree to
perform those duties and services consistent with your position and fulfill
those obligations as may be designated from time to time by ISI's Board of
Directors. The foregoing, however, shall not preclude you from serving in any
capacity with any civic, educational, charitable or religious organization or
any trade association, so long as such activities do not interfere with your

duties and obligations under this Agreement. Your services shall be performed at
ISI's principal executive offices in Provo, Utah. However, ISI and you
understand that you may be required to travel in connection with the performance
of your duties hereunder.

     4.   ISI agrees to the following compensation and incentive arrangement:

          a.   You will be paid a salary at an annual base rate of $140,000
               ($11,666.67 monthly) during the period of the Agreement, payable
               in accordance with normal ISI payroll practices. Furthermore,
               your base salary will be subject to review annually for increases
               by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion in connection
               with the annual review of salary and benefits for ISI's
               management. All reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
               connection with your services hereunder, will be separately
               reimbursed subject to the terms of ISI's expense reimbursement
               policy for its management. ISI shall have the right to withhold
               from your salary any taxes, FICA, or other amounts required to be
               withheld by any governmental entity or authority having
               jurisdiction over the matter.

          b.   You will be entitled to participate in the ISI Corporate
               Management Bonus program, as amended from time to time (the
               "Bonus"). This will entitle you to a potential bonus for FY 1998
               of 50% of your annual salary and thereafter at the rate
               determined by ISI's Board of Directors.

          c.   In addition, you shall be entitled to participate in health
               insurance, pension and other benefits provided to other senior
               executives of ISI on terms no less favorable than those available
               to such senior executives of ISI. You shall also be entitled to
               the same number of vacation days, holidays, sick days and other
               benefits as are generally allowed to other senior executives of
               ISI in accordance with the ISI policy in effect from time to
               time.

     5. ISI shall have the right to terminate this contract with you at any time
without payment of any amounts described herein (other than payment of salary
and a pro rata portion of your bonus earned through the effective date of such
termination and reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred
prior to such date) in the event that:

<PAGE>   3
Mr. William B. Woahn
February 10, 1998
Page 3

          a.   you willfully fail to substantially perform your duties
               hereunder, other than a failure as a result of your complete or
               partial incapacity due to physical or mental illness or
               impairment;

          b.   you willfully act, or willfully fail to act, in such a fashion so
               as to constitute gross misconduct which is injurious to ISI;

          c.   you engage in any act of personal dishonesty in connection with
               your responsibilities under this Agreement and that is intended
               to result in substantial gain or personal enrichment at the
               expense of ISI;

          d.   you are convicted of a felony; or

          e.   you materially breach the terms of Part I Section 3 or Part III
               Section 2 of this Agreement provided that ISI first shall have
               provided you with written notice specifying the acts or omissions
               alleged to constitute your breach of such section and you have
               failed to correct the breach within fifteen (15) days of receipt
               of such notice.

     A termination of your employment with ISI for any of the reasons set forth
in this section shall be referred to as "Termination for Cause".

     6. In the event of a "Change in Control" of ISI and within twelve 12 months
thereafter there is a "Termination Without Cause" or a "Constructive
Termination", you shall be entitled to the following consideration:

          a.   (i)  The greater of $200,000 or one (1) year benefits (for
                    purposes of this section benefits shall mean the ISI
                    medical, dental and life insurance benefit plans Employee
                    participated in at the date of termination), salary and
                    bonus (calculated based on your salary and bonus plan as of
                    the date of termination) payable on the last day of
                    employment, or on such other date as we mutually agree in
                    writing.

               (ii) One (1) year executive out placement services to be provided
                    from the date of termination. The terms of such services
                    shall be

<PAGE>   4
Mr. William B. Woahn

Page 4

                     determined at the discretion of ISI, provided that the cost
                     of such services are reasonable and substantially equal to
                     similar services offered to similar executives in the
                     industry. ISI's obligation for out placement services shall
                     cease earlier than one (1) year in the event you accept a
                     position of employment prior to such time.

               (iii) You will have the right, but not the obligation, to sell
                     your shares of ISI Common Stock to ISI (or in ISI's
                     discretion to CCC Information Services Inc.). The sale
                     price of such shares shall be their fair market value.
                     Where there exists a public market for ISI's Common Stock
                     at the time of such sale, the fair market value per share
                     shall be the average last reported sale price in the
                     over-the-counter market in which the Common Stock is quoted
                     or on any exchange on which the Common Stock is listed,
                     whichever is applicable, for the five (5) trading days
                     prior to the date of determination of fair market value.
                     Where there is no public market for ISI's Common Stock at
                     the time of such sale, the fair market value per share
                     shall be determined as follows: you will select an
                     investment banker and ISI will select an investment banker
                     to assess the fair market value of ISI at the date you
                     elect to sell the shares. If the parties are unable to
                     agree on a valuation, the two investment bankers shall
                     select a third investment banker to arbitrate the
                     valuation. The decision of the independent investment
                     banker shall be binding on both parties.

          b.   For purposes of this section, a "Change of Control" shall occur
               if:

               (i)   any person (as such term is used in Section 13(d) and 14(d)
                     of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
                     "Exchange Act"), including CCC Information Services Inc.
                     (including its affiliates), becomes the beneficial owner
                     (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act)
                     directly or indirectly, of securities of ISI representing
                     50% or more of the total voting power represented by ISI
                     then outstanding voting securities; or

               (ii)  the "Continuing Directors", cease for any reason to
                     constitute a majority of the Board of InsurQuote Systems.
                     Inc. For purposes of

February 10, 1998
Page 5

                     this section, "Continuing Director" shall mean a member of
                     the Board who either is a member of the Board on the date
                     of the execution of this Agreement, or who subsequently
                     became a director of ISI and whose election was approved by
                     a vote of a majority of the Continuing Directors then on
                     the Board (which term, for purposes of this definition,
                     shall mean the whole Board and not any committee thereof);
                     or

               (iii) a merger or consolidation of ISI with any other entity,
                     other than a merger or consolidation which would result in
                     the voting securities of ISI outstanding immediately prior
                     thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining
                     outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of
                     the surviving entity) at least fifty percent (50%) of the
                     total voting power represented by the voting securities of
                     ISI or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after
                     such merger or consolidation, or the stockholders of ISI
                     approve a plan of complete liquidation of ISI or an
                     agreement for the sale or disposition by ISI of all or
                     substantially all of ISI's assets.

          c.   "Termination Without Cause", for purposes of this section, shall
               mean termination of your employment with ISI or any of its
               affiliates for any reason other than those constituting
               Termination For Cause as defined in Part I, Section 5 of this
               Agreement:

     7.   a.   In the event ISI terminates this Agreement for reasons not
described in Part I, Paragraphs 5 or 6 above, or if your termination is a
"Termination Without Cause" or a "Constructive Termination", you shall be
entitled to the following consideration:

               (i)   The greater of $200,000 or one (1) year benefits (for
                     purposes of this section benefits shall mean the ISI
                     medical, dental and life insurance benefit plans Employee
                     participated in at the date of termination), salary, bonus
                     (calculated based on your salary and bonus plan as of the
                     date of termination) payable to the last day of employment,
                     or on such other date as we mutually agree in writing.

               (ii)  One (1) year executive out placement services to be
                     provided from the date of termination. The terms of such
                     services shall be determined at the discretion of ISI,
                     provided that the cost of such services are reasonable and
                     substantially equal to similar services offered to similar
                     executives in the industry. ISI's obligation for out
                     placement services shall cease earlier than one (1) year in
                     the event you accept a position of employment prior to such
                     time.

          b.   For purposes of this Agreement a termination shall be a
               "Constructive Termination" if:

               (i)   there is a material diminution in the authority, duties, or
                     responsibilities of your position from the authority,
                     duties or responsibilities of your position with ISI in
                     effect immediately prior to such diminution, or your
                     removal from such authority, duties or responsibilities;

               (ii)  there is any failure by ISI to comply with any of the
                     provisions of Part 1, Section 4 of this Agreement, other
                     than an isolated, insubstantial, or inadvertent failure not
                     occurring in bad faith and which is remedied by ISI
                     promptly after receipt of written notice from you;

               (iii) a reduction, of more than ten (10%) percent, by ISI in your
                     annual salary or bonus opportunity as in effect immediately
                     prior to such reduction provided, however, if such
                     reduction also applies to similarly situated employees
                     this provision shall not be a Constructive Termination;

               (iv)  a reduction, of more than ten (10%) percent, by ISI in the
                     kind or level of employee benefits to which you are
                     entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the
                     result that your overall benefits package is materially
                     reduced provided, however, if such reduction also applies
                     to similarly situated employees this provision shall not be
                     a Constructive Termination;

Mr. William B. Woahn

             (v)    the relocation of ISI to a facility or a location more than
                    200 miles from ISI's present location, without the majority
                    approval of the Inside Stockholders as defined in the
                    Investment Agreement dated February 10, 1998;

             (vi)   any purported termination, other than your voluntary
                    resignation, of your employment by ISI which is not effected
                    as a result of your death or incapacity or as a Termination
                    For Cause, or any purported termination for which the
                    grounds relied upon are not valid;

             (vii)  the failure of ISI to obtain the assumption of this
                    Agreement by any successor;

             (viii) any material breach by ISI of any material provision of
                    this Agreement; or

             (ix)   you die or become incapacitated. You will be deemed to be
                    incapacitated if, at the time notice is given, you have been
                    unable to substantially perform your duties under this
                    Agreement for a period of three (3) consecutive months as
                    the result of your incapacity due to physical or mental
                    illness. ISI may terminate your employment due to incapacity
                    by giving you 30 days advance notice in writing. In the
                    event that you resume the performance of substantially all
                    of your duties hereunder before the termination becomes
                    effective, ISI notice of intent to terminate shall
                    automatically be deemed to have been revoked.

     You acknowledge and agree, for the purposes of Section 7.b.i. above, (A)
that ISI may, from time to time, reorganize its divisions and establish new
subsidiaries or affiliates, (B) that the transfer of you to such division,
subsidiary or affiliate shall not be deemed a material diminution in authority,
duties or job responsibilities so long as you maintain a similar, or greater,
level of authority, duties and responsibilities as you had just prior to the
transfer, and (C) that a change in reporting responsibilities shall not
necessarily be deemed a diminution in authority for purposes of this Agreement.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, Constructive Termination shall not occur
within the meaning of this Paragraph 7 until and unless thirty (30) days have
elapsed from the date the Board of Directors receives such written notice
without ISI curing or causing to be cured the circumstances set forth in this
Paragraph 7 on the basis of which the declaration of Constructive Termination is
given.

PART II - RIGHTS UNDER STOCK OPTION PLAN UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

     The following terms and conditions are set forth solely for the purpose of
defining certain rights regarding the exercise of vested and unvested options
you hold pursuant to the ISI Stock Option Plan, or its successor, if any, and
your Stock Option Agreement(s):

     1. You are subject to certain terms and conditions of the ISI Stock Option
Plan, or its successor, if any, as amended from time to time, (the "Plan") and
you are a party to certain Stock Option Agreement(s) (the "Option Agreement").
Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or the Option Agreement to the
contrary, you will have the right to exercise immediately but no later than one
hundred eighty (180) days, all vested and unvested options you hold pursuant to
your Option Agreement if either of the following events occur:

          a.   in the event a "Change in Control" occurs, as defined in Part I,
               Section 6 of this Agreement, and within twelve 12 months
               thereafter there is a Termination Without Cause as defined in
               Part I, Section 6.c. of this Agreement; or

          b.   in the event there is a Constructive Termination as defined in
               Part I Section 7.b.; or

          c.   in the event there is an "Adverse Change" in the Plan. For
               purposes of this subsection an Adverse Change in the Plan shall
               mean:

               i.   termination of the Plan; or

               ii.  amendment to the Plan which materially diminishes the value
                    of your long term incentive award, that may be granted under
                    the Plan.

                    unless there is substituted concurrently long term incentive
                    awards of comparable value.

PART III - GENERAL PROVISIONS

     1. During your association with the ISI, or any affiliate, you will be
exposed to confidential and proprietary information of ISI and its affiliates
which may be disclosed to you both orally and/or in writing concerning ISI, its
affiliates, subsidiaries, customers, products, systems, marketing, financial,
legal and such other information relating to ISI and its affiliates, or
subsidiaries. You agree to keep such information confidential, and you will not,
without ISI's prior written consent, disclose to any person or entity the
confidential information. You also agree to take all reasonably necessary
precautions to prevent any unauthorized disclosure of such matters. It is agreed
that the obligations of confidentiality which you have agreed to will continue
in full force and effect while you are associated with the company and for three
(3) years following the termination of our Agreement. For purposes of the
foregoing, confidential and proprietary information shall not include
information in the public domain or information that becomes public through no
fault of your own.

     2. You also agree that without the express prior written consent of ISI and
as consideration for the above-mentioned compensation, you will not (on behalf
of yourself or any other person or entity), during the term of your employment
with ISI and for a period equal to one (1) year) after the date of any
termination of such employment for any reason whatsoever (i) directly or
indirectly own, manage, join, invest in, finance, control or participate in,
accept employment with, provide consulting or advisory services to, or be
connected with, any business (other than ISI or any of its affiliates) anywhere,
that markets, sells or provides access to databases or services substantially
similar to those offered by ISI or that ISI is actively developing or has
developed and then intends to market presently as of the date of termination of
this Agreement, (ii) rely on proprietary technology or know-how used by, or
documents that contain confidential information (specifically including customer
lists and the contents of marketing documents and marketing materials) of ISI
or any of its affiliated companies to engage in any activity with the intent or
effect of competing with ISI or any of its affiliated companies, or (iii)
directly or indirectly, (on behalf of yourself or any other person who markets,
sells or provides access to databases or services substantially similar to those
offered by ISI or that ISI is actively developing or has developed and then
intends to market presently), employ, solicit for employment or

Mr. William B. Woahn
February 10, 1998

otherwise assist in the solicitation for employment, any other employee or
consultant of ISI or any of its affiliated companies (collectively the
"non-competition obligations"). You will not, however, be prevented from owning,
directly or indirectly, solely for investment purposes, no more than one
percent (1%) of the shares of stock of any publicly traded corporation that
does compete with ISI.

     In addition, during the applicable term stated above you shall not directly
or indirectly (1) induce or attempt to induce any employee of ISI, its
affiliates or subsidiaries to leave the employ of ISI or in any way interfere
with the relationship between ISI and any employee thereof, (2) hire directly or
through another entity any person who was an employee of ISI as of the date of
your termination, or (3) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier,
licensee, licensor, or other business relation of ISI to cease doing business
with ISI or its affiliates, or in any way interfere with the relationship
between any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or business relation and
ISI, (4) disparage ISI, its management, or its business in any public or private
manner, or (5) induce, directly or indirectly, any person to compete with ISI.

     3. You agree that if you fail fully to honor your obligations of
confidentiality and non-competition hereunder, ISI shall have, in addition to
any other rights, the right to cease all further payments hereunder and the
right to obtain specific performance of the confidentiality and non-compete
obligations agreed to herein, without any showing of actual damage or inadequacy
of legal remedy.

     4. All controversies and disputes between you and ISI arising out of your
employment, the termination thereof, or the provisions of this Agreement,
including but not limited to all claims involving federal, state and local laws
relating to employment discrimination based on race, color, national origin,
religion, sex, age, disability or any other protected status, shall be subject
to mandatory arbitration as provided for in this Section.

     All such disputes shall be submitted to arbitration in Provo, Utah, or such
other location as the parties may mutually agree, under the Employment Dispute
Resolution Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

     The arbitrator(s) selected under this Section may award damages,
reinstatement and all other relief available under all applicable federal, state
or local laws, except that each

<PAGE>   11
Mr. William B. Woahn

Page 11

party shall be responsible for its own attorney's fees and costs. Any
arbitration award issued hereunder shall be in writing, shall state its
underlying reasons and shall be final and binding on the parties to this
Agreement and anyone claiming through them. Any judgment upon an award issued
under this Section may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

     YOU AND ISI HEREBY EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THE FOREGOING ARBITRATION
PROVISIONS ARE THE EXCLUSIVE MEANS FOR RESOLVING ALL CONTROVERSIES AND DISPUTES
ARISING OUT OF YOUR EMPLOYMENT, THE TERMINATION THEREOF, OR THE PROVISIONS OF
THIS AGREEMENT.

     5. The terms of this Agreement may not be modified orally, but only by
mutual written consent. This letter, and any agreement you signed as part of
your original employment with ISI contains our entire agreement regarding your
employment by ISI and all prior agreements other than confidentiality agreements
are terminated. In the event that there are any conflicts between this Agreement
and any confidentiality or non-compete agreements, the terms of this Agreement
shall prevail.

     6. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon you
(and your successors, heirs, assigns and legal representatives) and ISI and its
successors and assigns. ISI will require any successor (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of ISI to assume expressly and
agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that
ISI would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. If
you should die while any amounts are still payable to you hereunder, all such
amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement to your devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there
be no such designee, to your estate.

     7. You agree that, except to the extent that disclosure is required by you
to your attorney or accountant, or required by operation of law, you will keep
the terms of this Agreement confidential.

     8. All notices pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be
considered properly delivered when addressed to as set forth below, given or

part of this Agreement, its obligations hereunder, or any other interest herein
or rights hereunder without the other parties' prior written consent.

     10. If any provision of this Agreement is for any reason held invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable, all other provisions of this Agreement will
remain in full force and effect and the invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable
provision shall be replaced by a mutually acceptable valid, legal and
enforceable provision that is closest to the original intent of the parties.

     11. This Agreement will have been made, executed and delivered in the State
of Utah and will be governed and construed for all purposed in accordance with
the laws of the State of Utah without giving effect to conflict of laws
provisions.

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

     Re: Employment

Dear Mr. Woahn:

     By letter dated February 10, 1998 from InsurQuote Systems, Inc. (the
"COMPANY") to you (the "EMPLOYMENT LETTER"), the Company and you have agreed to
certain employment arrangements and conditions. The Company is entering into
that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, by and
among the Company, ChannelPoint, Inc. ("BUYER") and Gold Acquisition Corp. (the
"MERGER AGREEMENT") pursuant to which the Company will be acquired by, and
become a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of, Buyer (the "ACQUISITION"). This
letter (this "AMENDMENT") shall amend the Employment Letter effective as of the
Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement). This Amendment shall be null
and void if the Acquisition is not consummated.

     1. Continued Employment. For up to one (1) year following the Closing Date,
you will be employed as the President of the Company pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Employment Letter, as amended by this Amendment. After such
time you will be employed as a Senior Vice President of Buyer also pursuant to
the terms and conditions of the Employment Letter, as amended by this Amendment.

     2. Responsibilities and Reporting. For at least one (1) year following the
Closing Date, all decisions with respect to employees of the Company, including
the retention and termination of such employees (other than terminations for
cause), shall be made by you or made with your prior consent (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld). For the term of your employment following
the Closing Date, you shall report directly to Kenneth Hollen or the President
or Chief Operating Officer of Buyer.

     3. No Constructive Termination. You hereby agree that the Acquisition and
your continued employment pursuant to the Employment Letter, as amended by this
Amendment, does not constitute a Constructive Termination (as defined in the
Employment Letter).

     4. Compensation. You shall be paid during your employment with Buyer or the
Company after the Acquisition an annual base salary of $200,000 and you shall
continue to receive employee benefits as are currently in effect for executive
employees

<PAGE>   15

Mr. Woahn
February 1, 2000
Page 2

of the Company for a period of at least one (1) year following the Closing Date
and benefits as are in effect from time to time for employees of Buyer
thereafter. You shall also be eligible for an annual bonus equal to up to 40% of
your base salary.

     5. Stock Options. Subject to the terms of the applicable stock option plan
and an option grant letter, and other terms approved by the Board of Directors
of Buyer, as an inducement for you to enter into this Amendment and in
consideration of your continued employment and in recognition of the fact that
(i) your services and expertise are essential to the success of the business
combination and (ii) your continued employment hereunder may preclude your
pursuit of certain other employment opportunities (including opportunities which
might otherwise have allowed you to earn incentive bonuses and equity awards),
Buyer will grant to you an option to purchase 40,000 shares of common stock,
$.001 par value per share, of Buyer, with one-twenty-fourth (1/24th) of the
shares subject to such option becoming exercisable on the first day of each full
month beginning one (1) year after the Closing Date, until all such shares are
exercisable, subject to your continued employment with Buyer on such dates. The
parties hereto agree that the options granted pursuant to this paragraph 5 shall
count towards the option pool of the Company as it exists prior to the
Acquisition.

     6. Transition Team. A transition team, consisting of you, Kenneth Hollen,
Fred Rook, Fred Eppinger and David Whetten, shall be formed to implement and
monitor the integration of the Company with Buyer's business operations. Kenneth
Hollen shall have the final determination on all unresolvable issues of the
transition team.

     7. Employee Policies. You shall be entitled to and shall abide by all
applicable employment and personnel policies in effect from time to time.

     8. Amendment to Employment Letter. The Employment Letter is hereby amended
as follows:

     (a) paragraph (e) of Section 5 of Part I shall be amended to delete the
reference to Section 3 of Part I;

     (b) clause (iii) of paragraph (a) of Section 6 of Part I shall be deleted
in its entirety;

     (c) the reference to the number 200 in clause (v) of paragraph (b) of
Section 7 of Part I shall be deleted and replaced with the number "50"; and

                                       2
<PAGE>   16
Mr. Woahn

Page 3

     (d) the following sentence shall be inserted at the end of clause (i) of
paragraph (a) of Section 7 of Part I: "The benefits payable under this clause
(i) shall be in consideration of the your agreements under Section 2 of Part III
of this Agreement."

     9. Entire agreement; Miscellaneous. The parties acknowledge and agree that
they are not relying on any representations, oral or written, other than those
expressly contained herein. Except for the provisions of the Employment Letter
not amended by this Amendment, (i) this Amendment supersedes all proposals, oral
or written, all negotiations, conversations or discussions between the parties
and all course of dealing and (ii) all prior understandings and agreements
between the parties regarding employment matters are hereby merged in this
Amendment, which alone is the complete and exclusive statement of their
understanding as to employment. No waiver or modification of this Amendment
shall be valid unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the party
sought to be charged therewith. Time is of the essence in this Amendment and
each and every provision hereof. The parties acknowledge that they each
participated in drafting this Amendment, and there shall be not presumption
against any party on the ground that such party was responsible for preparing
this Amendment or any part hereof. Paragraph headings are for convenience of
reference only and are not intended to create substantive rights or obligations.

     This Amendment shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Buyer,
the Company and their respective successors and assigns. This Amendment shall
also be enforceable by you and your personal or legal representatives,
executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, devisees and
legatees. Buyer, the company or any successor thereto may assign its rights
under this Amendment to any corporation which owns all of the outstanding equity
of Buyer, the Company or any successor thereto.

     If the foregoing accurately reflects our mutual understanding, please sign
and return the enclosed copy of this letter, as evidence of our agreement.

                                     Very truly yours,

                                     InsurQuote Systems, Inc.

PERSONAL & CONFIDENTIAL

Mr. David L. Whetten
1735 North 1300 West
Pleasant Grove, Utah 84062

Dear Dave:

     This letter will confirm our agreement ("Agreement") with respect to your
employment as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer of InsurQuote
Systems, Inc. ("ISI").

PART I - EMPLOYER-EMPLOYEE RELATIONSHIP

     The following terms and conditions set forth the rights, duties and
responsibilities regarding the employer - employee relationship between you and
ISI, including but not limited to the termination of that relationship:

     1. The term of employment will be from February 1, 1998 through January 31,
2003, unless sooner terminated as provided below. Either party may provide the
other party sixty (60) days written notice of its intention not to extend this
Agreement beyond the term stated above. If this Agreement is not terminated
effective as of January 31, 2003 in the manner stated above, it then shall be
automatically renewed on a year-to-year basis (each, a "Renewal Term") provided
that either party may provide the other party sixty (60) days written notice of
its intention not to extend the Agreement beyond any Renewal Term.

     2. You will serve as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer
of ISI. Your duties and responsibilities shall include the duties and
responsibilities for your corporate office and position set forth in the
Company's bylaws from time to time in effect and such other duties and
responsibilities as may be reasonably prescribed by the Board of Directors, in
all cases to be consistent with your corporate office and position.

     3. During the term of this Agreement you agree to devote your full and
undivided business time and attention, to the business of ISI. You agree to
perform those duties and services consistent with your position and fulfill
those obligations as may be designated from time to time by ISI's Board of
Directors. The foregoing, however, shall not preclude you from serving in any
capacity with any civic, educational, charitable or religious

<PAGE>   2

Mr. David L. Whetten
February 10, 1998
Page 2

organization or any trade association, so long as such activities do not
interfere with your duties and obligations under this Agreement. Your services
shall be performed at ISI's principal executive offices in Provo, Utah. However,
ISI and you understand that you may be required to travel in connection with the
performance of your duties hereunder.

         4. ISI agrees to the following compensation and incentive arrangement:

            a.   You will be paid a salary at an annual base rate of $150,000
                 ($12,500 monthly) during the period of the Agreement, payable
                 in accordance with normal ISI payroll practices. Furthermore,
                 your base salary will be subject to review annually for
                 increases by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion in
                 connection with the annual review of salary and benefits for
                 ISI's management. All reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
                 incurred in connection with your services hereunder, will be
                 separately reimbursed subject to the terms of ISI's expense
                 reimbursement policy for its management. ISI shall have the
                 right to withhold from your salary any taxes, FICA, or other
                 amounts required to be withheld by any governmental entity or
                 authority having jurisdiction over the matter.

            b.   You will be entitled to participate in the ISI Corporate
                 Management Bonus program, as amended from time to time (the
                 "Bonus"). This will entitle you to a potential bonus for FY
                 1998 of 50% of your annual salary and thereafter at the rate
                 determined by ISI's Board of Directors.

            c.   In addition, you shall be entitled to participate in health
                 insurance, pension and other benefits provided to other senior
                 executives of ISI on terms no less favorable than those
                 available to such senior executives of ISI. You shall also be
                 entitled to the same number of vacation days, holidays, sick
                 days and other benefits as are generally allowed to other
                 senior executives of ISI in accordance with the ISI policy in
                 effect from time to time.

         5. ISI shall have the right to terminate this contract with you at any
time without payment of any amounts described herein (other than payment of
salary and a pro rata portion of your bonus earned through the effective date of
such termination and

<PAGE>   3

Mr. David L. Whetten
February 10, 1998
Page 3

reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred prior to such date)
in the event that:

            a.   you willfully fail to substantially perform your duties
                 hereunder, other than a failure as a result of your complete or
                 partial incapacity due to physical or mental illness or
                 impairment;

            b.   you willfully act, or willfully fail to act, in such a fashion
                 so as to constitute gross misconduct which is injurious to ISI;

            c.   you engage in any act of personal dishonesty in connection with
                 your responsibilities under this Agreement and that is intended
                 to result in substantial gain or personal enrichment at the
                 expense of ISI;

            d.   you are convicted of a felony; or

            e.   you materially breach the terms of Part I Section 3 or Part III
                 Section 2 of this Agreement provided that ISI first shall have
                 provided you with written notice specifying the acts or
                 omissions alleged to constitute your breach of such section and
                 you have failed to correct the breach within fifteen (15) days
                 of receipt of such notice.

         A termination of your employment with ISI for any of the reasons set
forth in this section shall be referred to as "Termination for Cause".

         6. In the event of a "Change in Control" of ISI and within twelve 12
months thereafter there is a "Termination Without Cause" or a "Constructive
Termination", you shall be entitled to the following consideration:

            a.   (i)  The greater of $300,000 or one (1) year benefits (for
                      purposes of this section benefits shall mean the ISI
                      medical, dental and life insurance benefit plans Employee
                      participated in at the date of termination), salary and
                      bonus (calculated based on your salary and bonus plan as
                      of the date of termination) payable on the last day of
                      employment, or on such other date as we mutually agree in
                      writing.

<PAGE>   4

Mr. David L. Whetten
February 10, 1998
Page 4

                 (ii)  One (1) year executive out placement services to be
                       provided from the date of termination. The terms of such
                       services shall be determined at the discretion of ISI,
                       provided that the cost of such services are reasonable
                       and substantially equal to similar services offered to
                       similar executives in the industry. ISI's obligation for
                       out placement services shall cease earlier than one (1)
                       year in the event you accept a position of employment
                       prior to such time.

                 (iii) You will have the right, but not the obligation, to sell
                       your shares of ISI Common Stock to ISI (or in ISI's
                       discretion to CCC Information Services Inc.). The sale
                       price of such shares shall be their fair market value.
                       Where there exists a public market for ISI's Common Stock
                       at the time of such sale, the fair market value per share
                       shall be the average last reported sale price in the
                       over-the-counter market in which the Common Stock is
                       quoted or on any exchange on which the Common Stock is
                       listed, whichever is applicable, for the five (5) trading
                       days prior to the date of determination of fair market
                       value. Where there is no public market for ISI's Common
                       Stock at the time of such sale, the fair market value per
                       share shall be determined as follows: you will select an
                       investment banker and ISI will select an investment
                       banker to assess the fair market value of ISI at the
                       date you elect to sell the shares. If the parties are
                       unable to agree on a valuation, the two investment
                       bankers shall select a third investment banker to
                       arbitrate the valuation. The decision of the independent
                       investment banker shall be binding on both parties.

            b.   For purposes of this section, a "Change of Control" shall occur
                 if:

                 (i)   any person (as such term is used in Section 13(d) and
                       14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
                       (the "Exchange Act"), including CCC Information Services
                       Inc. (including its affiliates), becomes the beneficial
                       owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the
                       Exchange Act) directly or indirectly, of securities of
                       ISI representing 50% or more of the total voting power
                       represented by ISI's then outstanding voting securities;
                       or

                 (ii)  the "Continuing Directors", cease for any reason to
                       constitute a majority of the Board of InsurQuote Systems,
                       Inc. For purposes of this section, "Continuing Director"
                       shall mean a member of the Board who either is a member
                       of the Board on the date of the execution of this
                       Agreement, or who subsequently became a director of ISI
                       and whose election was approved by a vote of a majority
                       of the Continuing Directors then on the Board (which
                       term, for purposes of this definition, shall mean the
                       whole Board and not any committee thereof); or

                 (iii) a merger or consolidation of ISI with any other entity,
                       other than a merger or consolidation which would result
                       in the voting securities of ISI outstanding immediately
                       prior thereto continuing to represent (either by
                       remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting
                       securities of the surviving entity) at least fifty
                       percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by
                       the voting securities of ISI or such surviving entity
                       outstanding immediately after such merger or
                       consolidation, or the stockholders of ISI approve a plan
                       of complete liquidation of ISI or an agreement for the
                       sale or disposition by ISI of all or substantially all of
                       ISI's assets.

            c.   "Termination Without Cause", for purposes of this section,
                 shall mean termination of your employment with ISI or any of
                 its affiliates for any reason other than those constituting
                 Termination For Cause as defined in Part I, Section 5 of this
                 Agreement;

         7. a.   In the event ISI terminates this Agreement for reasons not
described in Part I, Paragraphs 5 or 6 above, or if your termination is a
"Termination Without Cause" or a "Constructive Termination", you shall be
entitled to the following consideration:

                 (i)   The greater of $300,000 or one (1) year benefits (for
                       purposes of this section benefits shall mean the ISI
                       medical, dental and life insurance benefit plans Employee
                       participated in at the date of termination), salary,
                       bonus (calculated based on your salary and bonus plan as
                       of the date of termination) payable on the last day of
                       employment, or on such other date as we mutually agree in
                       writing.

                 (ii)  One (1) year executive out placement services to be
                       provided from the date of termination. The terms of such
                       services shall be determined at the discretion of ISI,
                       provided that the cost of such services are reasonable
                       and substantially equal to similar services offered to
                       similar executives in the industry. ISI's obligation for
                       out placement services shall cease earlier than one (1)
                       year in the event you accept a position of employment
                       prior to such time.

            b.   For purposes of this Agreement a termination shall be a
                 "Constructive Termination" if:

                 (i)   there is a material diminution in the authority, duties,
                       or responsibilities of your position from the authority,
                       duties or responsibilities of your position with ISI in
                       effect immediately prior to such diminution, or your
                       removal from such authority, duties or responsibilities;

                 (ii)  there is any failure by ISI to comply with any of the
                       provisions of Part I, Section 4 of this Agreement, other
                       than an isolated, insubstantial, or inadvertent failure
                       not occurring in bad faith and which is remedied by ISI
                       promptly after receipt of written notice from you;

                 (iii) a reduction, of more than ten (10%) percent, by ISI in
                       your annual salary or bonus opportunity as in effect
                       immediately prior to such reduction provided, however, if
                       such reduction also applies to similarly situated
                       employees this provision shall not be a Constructive
                       Termination;

                 (iv)  a reduction, of more than ten (10%) percent, by ISI in
                       the kind or level of employee benefits to which you are
                       entitled immediately prior to such reduction with the
                       result that your overall benefits package is materially
                       reduced provided, however, if such reduction also applies
                       to similarly situated employees this provision shall not
                       be a Constructive Termination;

<PAGE>   7

Mr. David L. Whetten
February 10, 1998
Page 7

                 (v)    the relocation of ISI to a facility or a location more
                        than 200 miles from ISI's present location, without the
                        majority approval of the Inside Stockholders as defined
                        in the Investment Agreement dated February 10, 1998;

                 (vi)   any purported termination, other than your voluntary
                        resignation, of your employment by ISI which is not
                        effected as a result of your death or incapacity or as a
                        Termination For Cause, or any purported termination for
                        which the grounds relied upon are not valid;

                 (vii)  the failure of ISI to obtain the assumption of this
                        Agreement by any successor;

                 (viii) any material breach by ISI of any material provision of
                        this Agreement; or

                 (ix)   you die or become incapacitated. You will be deemed to
                        be incapacitated if, at the time notice is given, you
                        have been unable to substantially perform your duties
                        under this Agreement for a period of three (3)
                        consecutive months as the result of your incapacity due
                        to physical or mental illness. ISI may terminate your
                        employment due to incapacity by giving you 30 days
                        advance notice in writing. In the event that you resume
                        the performance of substantially all of your duties
                        hereunder before the termination becomes effective,
                        ISI's notice of intent to terminate shall automatically
                        be deemed to have been revoked.

         You acknowledge and agree, for the purposes of Section 7.b.i. above,
(A) that ISI may, from time to time, reorganize its divisions and establish new
subsidiaries or affiliates, (B) that the transfer of you to such division,
subsidiary or affiliate shall not be deemed a material diminution in authority,
duties or job responsibilities so long as you maintain a similar, or greater,
level of authority, duties and responsibilities as you had just prior to the
transfer, and (C) that a change in reporting responsibilities shall not
necessarily be deemed a diminution in authority for purposes of this Agreement.

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, Constructive Termination shall not occur
within the meaning of this Paragraph 7 until and unless thirty (30) days have
elapsed from the date the Board of Directors receives such written notice
without ISI curing or causing to be cured the circumstances set forth in this
Paragraph 7 on the basis of which the declaration of Constructive Termination is
given.

PART II - RIGHTS UNDER STOCK OPTION PLAN UPON TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

         The following terms and conditions are set forth solely for the purpose
of defining certain rights regarding the exercise of vested and unvested options
you hold pursuant to the ISI Stock Option Plan, or its successor, if any, and
your Stock Option Agreement(s):

         1. You are subject to certain terms and conditions of the ISI Stock
Option Plan, or its successor, if any, as amended from time to time, (the
"Plan") and you are a party to certain Stock Option Agreement(s) (the "Option
Agreement"). Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan or the Option
Agreement to the contrary, you will have the right to exercise immediately but
no later than one hundred eighty (180) days, all vested and unvested options you
hold pursuant to your Option Agreement if either of the following events occur:

            a.   in the event a "Change in Control" occurs, as defined in Part
                 I, Section 6 of this Agreement, and within twelve 12 months
                 thereafter there is a Termination Without Cause as defined in
                 Part I, Section 6.c. of this Agreement; or

            b.   in the event there is a Constructive Termination as defined in
                 Part I Section 7.b.; or

            c.   in the event there is an "Adverse Change" in the Plan. For
                 purposes of this subsection an Adverse Change in the Plan shall
                 mean:

                 i.   termination of the Plan; or

                 ii.  amendment to the Plan which materially diminishes the
                      value of your long term incentive award, that may be
                      granted under the Plan,

<PAGE>   9

Mr. David L. Whetten

                      unless there is substituted concurrently long term
                      incentive awards of comparable value.

PART III - GENERAL PROVISIONS

         1. During your association with the ISI, or any affiliate, you will be
exposed to confidential and proprietary information of ISI and its affiliates
which may be disclosed to you both orally and/or in writing concerning ISI, its
affiliates, subsidiaries, customers, products, systems, marketing, financial,
legal and such other information relating to ISI and its affiliates, or
subsidiaries. You agree to keep such information confidential, and you will not,
without ISI's prior written consent, disclose to any person or entity the
confidential information. You also agree to take all reasonably necessary
precautions to prevent any unauthorized disclosure of such matters. It is agreed
that the obligations of confidentiality which you have agreed to will continue
in full force and effect while you are associated with the company and for three
(3) years following the termination of our Agreement. For purposes of the
foregoing, confidential and proprietary information shall not include
information in the public domain or information that becomes public through no
fault of your own.

         2. You also agree that without the express prior written consent of ISI
and as consideration for the above-mentioned compensation, you will not (on
behalf of yourself or any other person or entity), during the term of your
employment with ISI and for a period equal to one (1) year) after the date of
any termination of such employment for any reason whatsoever (i) directly or
indirectly own, manage, join, invest in, finance, control or participate in,
accept employment with, provide consulting or advisory services to, or be
connected with, any business (other than ISI or any of its affiliates) anywhere,
that markets, sells or provides access to databases or services substantially
similar to those offered by ISI or that ISI is actively developing or has
developed and then intends to market presently as of the date of termination of
this Agreement, (ii) rely on proprietary technology or know-how used by, or
documents that contain confidential information (specifically including customer
lists and the contents of marketing documents and marketing materials) of ISI or
any of its affiliated companies to engage in any activity with the intent or
effect of competing with ISI or any of its affiliated companies, or (iii)
directly or indirectly, (on behalf of yourself or any other person who markets,
sells or provides access to databases or services substantially similar to those
offered by ISI or that ISI is actively developing or has developed and then
intends to market presently), employ, solicit for employment or

<PAGE>   10

Mr. David L. Whetten
February 10, 1998
Page 10

otherwise assist in the solicitation for employment, any other employee or
consultant of ISI or any of its affiliated companies (collectively the
"non-competition obligations"). You will not, however, be prevented from owning,
directly or indirectly, solely for investment purposes, no more than one percent
(1%) of the shares of stock of any publicly traded corporation that does compete
with ISI.

         In addition, during the applicable term stated above you shall not
directly or indirectly (1) induce or attempt to induce any employee of ISI, its
affiliates or subsidiaries to leave the employ of ISI or in any way interfere
with the relationship between ISI and any employee thereof, (2) hire directly or
through another entity any person who was an employee of ISI as of the date of
your termination, or (3) induce or attempt to induce any customer, supplier,
licensee, licensor, or other business relation of ISI to cease doing business
with ISI or its affiliates, or in any way interfere with the relationship
between any such customer, supplier, licensee, licensor or business relation and
ISI, (4) disparage ISI, its management, or its business in any public or private
manner, or (5) induce, directly or indirectly, any person to compete with ISI.

         3. You agree that if you fail fully to honor your obligations of
confidentiality and non-competition hereunder, ISI shall have, in addition to
any other rights, the right to cease all further payments hereunder and the
right to obtain specific performance of the confidentiality and non-compete
obligations agreed to herein, without any showing of actual damage or inadequacy
of legal remedy.

         4. All controversies and disputes between you and ISI arising out of
your employment, the termination thereof, or the provisions of this Agreement,
including but not limited to all claims involving federal, state and local laws
relating to employment discrimination based on race, color, national origin,
religion, sex, age, disability or any other protected status, shall be subject
to mandatory arbitration as provided for in this Section.

         All such disputes shall be submitted to arbitration in Provo, Utah, or
such other location as the parties may mutually agree, under the Employment
Dispute Resolution Rules of the American Arbitration Association.

         The arbitrator(s) selected under this Section may award damages,
reinstatement and all other relief available under all applicable federal, state
or local laws, except that each

<PAGE>   11

Mr. David L. Whetten

Page 11

party shall be responsible for its own attorney's fees and costs. Any
arbitration award issued hereunder shall be in writing, shall state its
underlying reasons and shall be final and binding on the parties to this
Agreement and anyone claiming through them. Any judgment upon an award issued
under this Section may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

         YOU AND ISI HEREBY EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THE FOREGOING ARBITRATION
PROVISIONS ARE THE EXCLUSIVE MEANS FOR RESOLVING ALL CONTROVERSIES AND
DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF YOUR EMPLOYMENT, THE TERMINATION THEREOF, OR THE
PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT.

         5. The terms of this Agreement may not be modified orally, but only by
mutual written consent. This letter, and any agreement you signed as part of
your original employment with ISI contains our entire agreement regarding your
employment by ISI and all prior agreements other than confidentiality agreements
are terminated. In the event that there are any conflicts between this Agreement
and any confidentiality or non-compete agreements, the terms of this Agreement
shall prevail.

         6. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon you
(and your successors, heirs, assigns and legal representatives) and ISI and its
successors and assigns. ISI will require any successor (whether direct or
indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or
substantially all of the business and/or assets of ISI to assume expressly and
agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that
ISI would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. If
you should die while any amounts are still payable to you hereunder, all such
amounts, unless otherwise provided herein, shall be paid in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement to your devisee, legatee or other designee or, if there
be no such designee, to your estate.

         7. You agree that, except to the extent that disclosure is required by
you to your attorney or accountant, or required by operation of law, you will
keep the terms of this Agreement confidential.

         8. All notices pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be considered properly delivered when addressed to as set forth below, given or
served

any part of this Agreement, its obligations hereunder, or any other interest
herein or rights hereunder without the other parties' prior written consent.

         10. If any provision of this Agreement is for any reason held invalid,
illegal, void or unenforceable, all other provisions of this Agreement will
remain in full force and effect and the invalid, illegal, void or enforceable
provision shall be replaced by a mutually acceptable valid, legal and
enforceable provision that is closest to the original intent of the parties.

         11. This Agreement will have been made, executed and delivered in the
State of Utah and will be governed and construed for all purposed in accordance
with the laws of the State of Utah without giving effect to conflict of laws
provisions.

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

Mr. David L. Whetten
1735 North 1300 West
Pleasant Grove, Utah 84062

         Re:  Employment

Dear Mr. Whetten:

         By letter dated February 10, 1998 from InsurQuote Systems, Inc. (the
"COMPANY") to you (the "EMPLOYMENT LETTER"), the Company and you have agreed to
certain employment arrangements and conditions. The Company is entering into
that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof, by and
among the Company, ChannelPoint, Inc. ("BUYER") and Gold Acquisition Corp. (the
"MERGER AGREEMENT") pursuant to which the Company will be acquired by, and
become a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of, Buyer (the "ACQUISITION"). This
letter (this "AMENDMENT") shall amend the Employment Letter effective as of the
Closing Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement). This Amendment shall be null
and void if the Acquisition is not consummated.

         1. Continued Employment. From and after the Closing Date, you will be
employed as a Senior Vice President of Buyer pursuant to the terms and
conditions of the Employment Letter, as amended by this Amendment. For at least
ninety (90) days following the Closing Date you shall report directly to Kenneth
Hollen or the President or Chief Operating Officer of Buyer.

         2. No Constructive Termination. You hereby agree that the Acquisition
and your continued employment pursuant to the Employment Letter, as amended by
this Amendment, does not constitute a Constructive Termination (as defined in
the Employment Letter).

         3. Compensation. You shall be paid during your employment with Buyer
after the Acquisition an annual base salary of $200,000 and you shall continue
to receive employee benefits as are currently in effect for executive employees
of the Company for a period of at least one (1) year following the Closing Date
and benefits as are in effect from time to time for employees of Buyer
thereafter. You shall also be eligible for an annual bonus equal to up to 40% of
