                            MASTER SERVICE AGREEMENT

This Master Service Agreement ("Agreement") sets forth the terms and conditions
under which Dun & Bradstreet, Inc. ("D&B") licenses its information and
software, including services and documentation associated therewith
(collectively, "Information") to Customer. The Information to be licensed by D&B
is set forth on the information schedule, including the initial information
schedule on the reverse side hereof (collectively, "Schedule[s]"), to be
executed from time to time by D&B and Customer. The terms of each Schedule are
incorporated herein by reference and the terms of this Agreement shall apply to
all Schedules that are in effect at any time and all references herein to "this
Agreement" shall be deemed to include all such Schedules.

1. LICENSE GRANT - D&B grants Customer a non-exclusive license to use the
Information as set forth on the applicable Schedule(s) subject to these terms.

2. DURATION AND LOCATION OF LICENSE - Where Information is licensed for
one-time use, Customer agrees to use such Information to generate a single
mailing and for no other purpose. Except for information provided for one-time
use, and except as otherwise set forth on any Schedule, Information may be used
by Customer throughout the continuous twelve (12) month period commencing the
sooner of the date of the initial shipment of any Information or thirty (30)
days after the signing of the applicable Schedule, unless this Agreement is
terminated earlier as provided below. Unless otherwise specified on the
applicable Schedule or agreed in writing, Customer is permitted to use
Information only at the "Bill To" (or "Ship To", if applicable) address on such
Schedule. Upon the expiration of the term of any Schedule, Customer shall
immediately return to D&B (if requested by D&B) all Information (including
copies) provided pursuant to that Schedule, or, if D&B has not requested their
return within thirty (30) days of such expiration. Immediately destroy all of
such Information (including copies).

3. RESTRICTIONS ON USE - All Information licensed to Customer pursuant to this
Agreement is provided for the exclusive use of Customer. None of the Information
may be available in whole or in part to any third party except that Customer may
furnish information to a third party for handling or processing upon the signing
by Customer and the third party of D&B's Processor's Agreement and its
acceptance by D&B. Unless otherwise specified on the applicable Schedule or
agreed in writing, Customer may not provide information to, or permit its use by
or for, any parent, subsidiary, affiliated entity or franchise of or dealer for
Customer. If Customer is a publisher, however, Information may be made available
to independent audit bureaus solely as an aid in auditing Customer's
circulation. Customer is expressly prohibited from using Information as a factor
in establishing an individual's eligibility for (i) credit or insurance to be
used primarily for personal, family or household purposes, or (ii) employment.
Customer is further prohibited from using Information to engage in unfair or
deceptive practices. Customer shall not copy any software licensed hereunder
except for backup/archival purposes. Except for mailing records and software or
unless otherwise agreed in writing, Customer may use Information in the medium
in which it is delivered or may, at Customer's expense, copy information into
any one or more other media. Customer agrees that pressure-sensitive or Cheshire
mailing records on which Information is provided may be used only once and may
not be duplicated in whole or in part in any form or manner whatsoever.

4. LIMITED WARRANTY - Customer acknowledges that the amounts to be paid to D&B
for the Information will in most instances represent a small portion of
Customer's overall costs of the project, task or function for which the
Information will be used. Customer also acknowledges that the type of
Information
<PAGE>   2
licensed by D&B will contain a degree of error. Finally, Customer acknowledges
that the prices that D&B charges its customers for the information are based, in
part, upon D&B's expectation that the risk of any loss or injury that might be
incurred by a user of the Information in reliance upon the Information will be
borne by Customer. For these reasons, Customer agrees that it is responsible for
determining that all Information licensed by D&B is sufficiently accurate for
Customer's purposes. If Customer finds that the Information is not sufficiently
accurate for its purposes following receipt by Customer and Inspection of the
same, then it must so notify D&B within fifteen (15) days after receipt. Upon
its receipt of such notice D&B shall, at its option, either correct the defect
at D&B's expense or refund any amounts paid by Customer for defective
Information. D&B DOES NOT GUARANTEE OR WARRANT THE CORRECTNESS, COMPLETENESS,
CURRENTNESS, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE
INFORMATION OR OF THE MEDIA ON WHICH THE INFORMATION IS PROVIDED AND SHALL NOT
BE LIABLE TO CUSTOMER FOR ANY LOSS OR INJURY ARISING OUT OF OR CAUSED IN WHOLE
OR IN PART, BY D&B'S NEGLIGENT ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN PROCURING, COMPILING,
COLLECTING, INTERPRETING, REPORTING, COMMUNICATING, OR DELIVERING THE
INFORMATION OR IN OTHERWISE PERFORMING ITS OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.
CUSTOMER AGREES THAT D&B WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THIS PARAGRAPH STATES D&B'S ENTIRE
LIABILITY AND CUSTOMER'S REMEDY FOR BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT.

5. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY - IF, NOTWITHSTANDING PARAGRAPH 4 ABOVE, LIABILITY
CAN BE IMPOSED ON D&B, THEN CUSTOMER AGREES THAT D&B'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR
ANY AND ALL LOSSES OR INJURIES TO CUSTOMER ARISING OUT OF ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS
OF D&B IN CONNECTION WITH ANYTHING TO BE DONE OR FURNISHED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT,
REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF THE LOSS OR INJURY (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE) AND
REGARDLESS OF THE NATURE OF THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RIGHT CLAIMED TO HAVE BEEN
VIOLATED, SHALL NEVER EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY CUSTOMER FOR THE INFORMATION
FURNISHED UNDER THE SUBJECT SCHEDULE OR $25,000.00, WHICHEVER IS GREATER, AND
CUSTOMER COVENANTS AND PROMISES THAT IT WILL NOT SUE D&B FOR AN AMOUNT GREATER
THAN SUCH SUM AND THAT IT WILL NOT SEEK PUNITIVE DAMAGES IN ANY SUIT AGAINST
D&B.

6. USE OF D&B'S NAME - Neither D&B, Dun & Bradstreet nor any of their trade
names, trademarks or service marks may be used for any purpose as the
identification of Customer's source or reference.

7. RIGHTS - Customer acknowledges that the Information is proprietary to D&B
and comprises: (a) works of original authorship, including compiled information
containing D&B's selection, arrangement and coordination and expression of such
information or pre-existing material it has created, gathered or assembled; (b)
confidential and trade secret information; and (c) information that has been
created, developed and maintained by D&B at great expense of time and money such
that misappropriation or unauthorized use by others for commercial gain would
unfairly and irreparably harm D&B. Customer shall not commit or permit any act
or omission that would impair D&B's rights in the Information. Customer shall
reproduce D&B's copyright notice on all authorized copies of the Information.

8. ACCEPTANCE AND TERMINATION - This Agreement and any Schedule hereto shall not
be binding upon D&B until accepted by it. D&B may elect to terminate this
Agreement and any Schedule prior to expiration upon written notice in the event
of a breach thereof by Customer, and otherwise upon thirty (30) days written
notice. The termination of this Agreement or any Schedule shall, at D&B's
option, be deemed to terminate all
<PAGE>   3
Schedules then in effect. In the event of termination, Customer shall
immediately return to D&B all Information provided by D&B (including copies)
and, if the termination is elected by D&B in the absence of a breach by
Customer, then D&B shall refund the unearned portion of any consideration paid
by Customer.

9. CUSTOMER INFORMATION - If in connection with this Agreement D&B is provided
with proprietary information from Customer (such as customer lists), then D&B
agrees to treat that information in the same manner as D&B treats its own
proprietary information that it does not wish to be disclosed to anyone else and
D&B agrees not to use that information except for the purpose of performing its
obligation under this Agreement.

10. GENERAL - This Agreement contains the entire and only agreement between
Customer and D&B regarding the subject matter hereof, and there are merged
herein all prior and collateral representations, warranties, promises and
conditions. Any representation, warranty, promise or condition not incorporated
herein shall not be binding upon either party. Paragraph headings are for
convenience only and shall not be used in construing this Agreement. In the
event of a conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the
terms and conditions of any Schedule, the terms and conditions of this Agreement
shall control. This Agreement and each Schedule shall be binding upon and shall
inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and
permitted assigns except that neither this Agreement nor any Schedule may be
assigned by Customer without the prior written consent of D&B. If any provision
of this Agreement or any Schedule is held invalid by a court of competent
jurisdiction, the remainder of this Agreement or any Schedule shall remain in
effect and the invalid provision shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary
to make it valid while still giving effect to the agreement of the parties. No
waiver or amendment of this Agreement or any Schedule shall be binding on either
part unless it is in writing and is signed by an authorized official of D&B and
Customer.

BY SIGNING ON THE FRONT SIDE HEREOF, D&B AND CUSTOMER AGREE TO AND INTEND TO BE
BOUND BY THE MASTER SERVICE AGREEMENT ABOVE.

seek any other appropriate remedy.

corporate reorganization, or to its parent or any affiliate, without such
consent.

         15. SEVERABILITY. Should any provision of this Agreement be held to be
void, invalid, unenforceable or illegal by a court, the validity and
enforceability of the other provisions shall not be affected thereby.

         16. NO WAIVER. Failure of either party at any time to require
performance by the other party of any obligation under this Agreement shall not
affect the right of such party to require performance of that obligation. Any
waiver by either party of any breach of any provision of this Agreement shall
not be construed as a waiver of any continuing or succeeding breach of such
prevision, a waiver or modification of the provision itself or a waiver of
modification of any right under this Agreement.

                              PROCESSOR'S AGREEMENT

         This D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement Is entered into this ___
day of __________, 1999, by and among Dun & Bradstreet, Inc., acting for itself
and on behalf of all other companies of The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation, 1
Diamond Hill Road, Murray Hill, New Jersey 07974 ("D&B"), Rare Medium, Inc.,
having an address at 44 West 18th Street, New York, New York 10011 ("Processor")
and Pro Net Link Corporation ("Customer").

         This D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement is based upon the
following:

         A. D&B is the owner of a valuable, proprietary and copyrighted database
containing information on businesses that D&B licenses to third parties for use
in their credit, marketing and other business decision-making.

         B. D&B and Customer are parties to an Agreement dated April _, 1999
(the "License Agreement") under which D&B is licensing information from its
database to Customer. The "Licensed Information"), as that term is used herein,
means all or any portion of the information that is licensed to Customer
pursuant to the License Agreement.

         C. Customer wishes to provide the Licensed Information to Processor
solely for processing and handling for and on behalf of Customer. D&B is willing
to permit Customer to provide the Licensed Information to Processor for this
purpose subject to Customers and Processor's joint and several agreement to the
terms and conditions of this D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, and with the intent
to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

         1. As between Processor and D&B, all Licensed Information provided to
Processor is and shall remain the property of D&B and is and shall be subject to
the copyright of D&B that covers the gathering of large amounts of information,
the selection therefrom and the rendition thereof into usable forms and formats,
Processor shall do nothing inconsistent with the copyright or other proprietary
rights of D&B In and to the Licensed Information.

         2. No Licensed Information, whether provided directly to Processor by
D&B or provided to Processor by Customer, shall be either duplicated by
Processor or integrated with information belonging to Processor or any parent,
subsidiary or affiliate of Processor for the benefit of Processor, or any
parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Processor or any third party other than
Customer or be made available by Processor to any parent, subsidiary or
affiliate of Processor or any third party other than Customer.

         3. All Licensed information, including all copies thereof, shall be
returned to D&B or otherwise destroyed at the expiration or earlier termination
of the License Agreement and none of
<PAGE>   13
the Licensed information shall be retained by Processor. In addition, if
Customer is provided with one (1) or more periodic updates of the Licensed
Information during the term of the License Agreement, then Processor shall
promptly return all previously-provided Licensed Information, including all
copies thereof, upon its receipt of an update thereof.

         4. Upon the expiration or earlier termination of this D&B/Processor
Data Processing Agreement, Processor shall provide D&B with a letter, signed by
an officer of Processor, certifying that Processor has fully complied with all
of the terms and conditions of Sections 2 and 3 hereof.

         5. a. Except as expressly authorized by subparagraph 5(b) below,
Processor shall not analyze or otherwise use the Licensed Information to
familiarize itself with the nature, character or quality of the Licensed
Information nor shall Processor use any information it obtains as a result of
its handling, processing or possession of the Licensed Information for its
benefit, for the benefit of any parent, subsidiary or affiliate or for the
benefit of any third party other than Customer. Without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, Processor shall not use the Licensed Information or
Information obtained as a result of its handling, processing or possession of
the Licensed Information in connection with the creation, testing, enhancement,
promotion, marketing, selling and/or licensing of products or services offered
by Processor, any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Processor or any third
party other than Customer.

            b. Notwithstanding the prohibitions contained in subparagraph 5(a)
above, D&B agrees that Processor may analyze the Licensed Information for the
sole benefit of Customer, provided that Customer promptly provides D&B with
copies of all reports that Processor provides Customer that in any way refer to
or reflect upon the results of such analysis.

         6. During the term of this D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement, and
for a period of one (1) year thereafter, D&B shall have the right, no more than
three (3) times per year, and upon five (5) business days written notice, to
enter Processor's premises during normal business hours to conduct an audit to
determine if Processor has complied with the material terms of this
D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement. Such audit shall be limited to an
examination of files In Processor's possession, including all hard copy and
machine readable databases which D&B reasonably believes pertinent to
Processor's uses of the Licensed Information. D&B agrees that it shall use best
efforts to minimize any adverse impact such audit may have upon Processor's
normal business operations. Processor agrees to reasonably cooperate with D&B in
connection With such audit and to make the pertinent files in its possession
accessible to D&B and its auditors.

         7. Customer agrees to Indemnify D&B from any losses or damages that D&B
may incur as a result of Processor's failure or refusal to comply with any of
the material terms and conditions of this D&B/Processor Data Processing
Agreement provided that D&B: (a) provides Customer and Processor with prompt
notice of any Such claim, (b) allows Customer the ability to participate, at
Customer's expense, in the defense of any such claim and (c) does not settle or
otherwise dispose of any such claim without the prior written consent of
Customer. Processor agrees to indemnify Customer from any losses, damages or
expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys', accountants' and outside
advisors' fees and disbursements) that Customer may incur as a result of
<PAGE>   14
Processor's failure or refusal to comply with any of the material terms and
conditions of this D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement; provided that
Customer (a) provides Processor with prompt notice of any such claim, (b) allows
Processor the ability to participate, at Processor's expense, in the defense of
such claim and (c) does not settle or otherwise dispose of any such claim
without the prior written consent of the Processor. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Processor shall not be liable to Customer for any losses, damages or
expenses in excess of the amount actually paid by Customer to Processor pursuant
to the terms of that certain Development Agreement, dated as of August 28, 1998,
between Customer and Processor (the "Development Agreement") and nothing
contained herein is intended to amend or modify any limitation on the aggregate
amount payable by Processor to Customer pursuant to the Indemnification
provisions of the D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement.

         8. D&B and Customer hereby represent and warrant that, as of the date
hereof, D&B has not asserted any claim that Processor has failed to comply with
material terms and conditions hereof and Customer is not otherwise aware of any
facts constituting a basis for such claim.

         9. Processor may terminate this D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement
upon written notice to Customer who shall promptly notify D&B of Processor's
termination. This D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement shall also terminate
automatically upon the expiration or earlier termination of the underlying
contract or other arrangement under which Customer engages Processor to process
the Licensed Information. Customer shall give D&B prompt written notice of any
such expiration or earlier termination. No termination of this D&B/Processor
Data Processing Agreement shall be effective, however, until Processor has
compiled with its obligations under paragraphs 3 and 4 above.

         10. This D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement represents the entire
agreement among Customer, Processor and D&B with regard to the subject matter
hereto and there are merged herein all prior and collateral promises, terms and
conditions. D&B and Customer acknowledge that they are parties to another
Agreement that also concerns the subject matter hereof but that the two-party
agreement is not affected by the foregoing "merger" provision. This
D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of
the parties and their successors and permitted assigns. This D&B/Processor Data
Processing Agreement may not be assigned, nor may any party's obligations
hereunder be subcontracted, without the prior written consent of the other
parties which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that no
consent shall be required for either an assignment of this D&B/Processor Data
Processing Agreement by D&B to another company of The Dun & Bradstreet
Corporation as a subcontractor. This D&B/Processor Data Processing Agreement may
not be amended, nor shall any waiver of rights hereunder be effective, unless
the amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed by all of the parties
hereto. If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable, then the court is hereby authorized to modify
that provision to make it enforceable and, failing that, to
<PAGE>   15
reform the contract by removing the unenforceable provision. This Agreement
shall be governed by the law of the State of New Jersey, without giving effect
to its conflicts of laws provisions.
