                                USWEB CORPORATION
                  FORM OF EMPLOYEE RETENTION BONUS PROVISION
                 CONTAINED IN CERTAIN ACQUISITION AGREEMENTS(1)

In connection with its merger with USWeb Corporation ("USWeb/CKS"),
marchFIRST assumed an obligation to issue shares of common stock as retention
bonuses to certain employees and consultants of USWeb/CKS. These bonuses are
governed by provisions found in acquisitions consummated by USWeb/CKS and are
substantially in the form set forth below. Terms not otherwise defined herein
shall have the meanings set forth in Annex A which is attached hereto and
incorporated by reference herein.

          In connection with hiring the employees and maintaining certain
consultants of the acquired company, (each such employee and consultant a
"New Employee"(2)), USWeb Corporation ("USWeb") agrees to issue to each of
them a bonus payable in USWeb common stock in accordance with the terms of
the Agreement(3). The bonus payment described in this paragraph shall be made
to such New Employee on the earlier to occur of: (i) in the event that the
New Employee's employment by USWeb or any wholly owned subsidiary of USWeb
terminates before the date three years(4) subsequent to the date of this
agreement (the "Agreement"), on the date of such termination (but only that
number of shares required pursuant to the Agreement), (ii) if on the date
three years subsequent to the date of the Agreement USWeb shall have a class
of equity securities that has been publicly traded on a national securities
exchange or quotation system for at least 180 days, then on such date three
years subsequent to the date of this Agreement and, (iii) in the event that
on the date three years subsequent to the date of this Agreement(5) USWeb
shall not have a class of equity securities that has been publicly traded on
a national securities exchange or quotation system for at least 180 days,
then on the first business day after the date three years subsequent to the
date of this Agreement that USWeb shall have a class of equity securities
that has been publicly traded on a national securities exchange or quotation
system for 180 days(6). Such bonus shall be, as to each New Employee, for
such number of shares of USWeb common stock as shall be equal, on the date
paid, and in the good faith judgment of USWeb's Board of Directors, to the
aggregate exercise price of the exercisable portion of the option granted to
the New Employee described elsewhere in the Agreement.

(1) The acquisition agreements which collectively form the USWeb Corporation
Employee Retention Bonus Program are listed on Annex A which is attached hereto
and incorporated by reference herein.

(3) With the respect to Agreement 103, Agreement 107, Agreement 127, Agreement
129, Agreement 130, Agreement 133, and Agreement 138, the second sentence of the
bonus provision is revised to read in its entirety as follows:

         The Stock Bonus shall be paid to such New Employee on the earlier of:
         (i) the date of termination of the New Employee's employment by USWeb
         (but only that number of shares required pursuant to this paragraph),
         or (ii) the date three years subsequent to the date on which the
         effective time occurs.

(4) In Agreement 109, Agreement 117, Agreement 118, Agreement 119, Agreement
122 the Innomate Agreement, Agreement 123, Agreement 126, Agreement 120 (the
"Five Year Agreements") and Agreement 102 the measuring period is five years.

(5) With respect to the Five Year Agreements, the second sentence of the
bonus provision is amended to include a new item (iv) which is set forth
below:

         (iv) the date five years subsequent to the date on which the effective
         time occurs.

(6) With respect to Agreement 111 and the DreamMedia Agreement, subclause
(ii) of the preceding sentence is deleted and replaced with the following:

         (ii) if USWeb shall have a class of equity securities that has been
         publicly traded on a national exchange or quotation system for at
         least 180 days and the New Employee exercises or has previously
         exercised options granted to such New Employee in accordance with
         this agreement, then on such dates as such New Employee may request
         with respect to the bonus payment for such related exercised options.
