               is due to CNBC Sports under the Agreement on the due date for
               payment of such sum, then without prejudice to any of CNBC
               Sports' other rights and remedies Focused Media or (as the case
               may be) BHL shall pay to CNBC Sports interest on such amount at
               3% above National Westminster Bank plc's base

                  from day to day on such sum from the due date for payment
                  until the actual date of payment and shall accrue both before
                  and after the date of any judgement."

         9.   Without prejudice to and without detracting in any way from any of
              the obligations of Focused Media and/or BHL under the Agreement
              (as amended by this letter agreement) which fall due to be
              performed after the date of this letter agreement, CNBC Sports
              hereby waives any claim which it may have against Focused Media
              and/or BHL as a result of any failure by Focused Media and/or BHL
              to pay to CNBC Sports any sum which has become due to CNBC Sports
              under the Agreement prior to the date of this letter agreement.

         10.  Not later than 31 August 1999 BHL shall (a) procure that its
              directors shall pass at a duly convened and held meeting of its
              board of directors resolutions in the form attached as Schedule 2
              to this letter agreement and (b) deliver to CNBC Sports a copy of
              such resolutions certified by its attorney to be a true copy of
              the original. BHL acknowledges that CNBC Sports is entering into
              this letter agreement in reliance upon such resolutions being
              valid and effective.

         11.  Save as hereby expressly amended, the Agreement shall continue in
              full force and effect unamended.

         12.  This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in all
              respects in accordance with English law.

         Please signify your agreement to and acceptance of the foregoing by

                  of the South African Reserve Bank has not been obtained on or

                       shall include the acquisition or disposal of any
                       subsidiary or any business) with a value in excess of
                       L.1,000,000 per transaction;

                       order;

                  PROVIDED THAT, if Cycad fails to pay the Second Subscription
                  Price to the Company on the Second Completion Date, then
                  (without prejudice to any other rights and remedies which any
                  of the other Shareholders may have) the provisions of this
                  Clause 4, and the rights of Cycad under this Clause 4, shall
                  cease to be of any further force or effect.

             5.   TAG-ALONG

             5.1  In the event that any Shareholder receives a bona fide offer
                  from a third party for the purchase of all or a proportion of
                  the Shares held by it (prior to the Shares being listed

                                       3

<PAGE>   5
     on any recognized Stock Exchange) which it wishes to accept, that
     Shareholder shall give notice to each of the other Shareholders containing
     full details of such offer and, if so requested by any other Shareholder
     within fourteen (14) days after the date of such notice (a "REQUESTING
     SHAREHOLDER"), it shall (subject to Clause 5.2):

     (a)  procure that the said third party shall make the same offer per Share
          in respect of the same proportion of the Shares held by each
          Requesting Shareholder; and

     (b)  (if the Offeree accepts such offer) shall not assign, transfer,
          exchange or otherwise dispose of any Shares or any interest therein to
          such third party unless such third party shall at the same time
          acquire from each Requesting Shareholder the relevant number of Shares
          in respect of which that Requesting Shareholder has accepted such
          offer.

5.2  Without prejudice to the provisions of Clause 6, the provisions of Clause
     5.1 shall not apply to or in the event of any transfer of any Shares (a) by
     Cycad to any wholly owned subsidiary or to any third party or (b) by Luna
     to CNBC Sports, National Broadcasting Company, Inc., Business News (Europe)
     Limited Partnership (the broadcaster of the CNBC Europe television
     channel), Parallel Media Group International Limited or any subsidiary of
     any of the foregoing.

6.   RIGHTS OF PRE-EMPTION

6.1  Subject always to Clause 6.7, any Shareholder who wishes to sell any of its
     Shares (a "VENDOR") shall give notice in writing to the Company and each of
     the other Shareholders of such wish (a "TRANSFER NOTICE") identifying:

     (a)  the person to whom it proposes to sell its Shares if they are not
          purchased by any of the other Shareholders or any person procured or
          nominated by any of the other Shareholders pursuant to the provisions
          of this Clause 6 ("THE PROPOSED TRANSFEREE");

     (b)  the name of the Proposed Transferee's ultimate parent company and
          controlling shareholder, if any;

     (c)  the sale price (which must be a cash price per Share) agreed between
          the Vendor and the Proposed Transferee ("PRESCRIBED PRICE") and other
          terms of the proposed sale.

     The Transfer Notice shall not be effective if it does not contain such
     information. The Transfer Notice shall constitute the Company as the
     Vendor's agent for the sale of all of the Shares which are the subject of
     the Transfer Notice ("THE SALE SHARES") to the other Shareholders or any
     person procured or nominated by any of the other Shareholders (as referred
     to above) at the Prescribed Price.

6.2  Within ten (10) business days of receipt of the Transfer Notice by the
     Company, the Company shall give notice in writing to each of the other
     Shareholders specifying the number of Sale Shares and the Prescribed Price
     and offering the Sale Shares for sale to the other Shareholders or any
     person procured or nominated by any of the other Shareholders (as referred
     to above) at the Prescribed Price. Such notice shall be

                                       4

<PAGE>   6
     accompanied by a copy of the Transfer Notice and shall require each of the
     other Shareholders to state by notice in writing within one hundred and
     twenty (120) days of the date of the notice:

     (a)  whether it, and/or any person procured or nominated by it as
          aforesaid, is willing to purchase any of the Sale Shares at the
          Prescribed Price and, if so, the maximum number of the Sale Shares
          which it is willing so to purchase; or

     (b)  that it consents to the sale of all the Sale Shares within thirty (30)
          days thereof to the Proposed Transferee at the Prescribed Price.

     In the event that no notice is received from any of the other Shareholders
     within the said period of one hundred and twenty (120) days then each of
     the other Shareholders shall be deemed to have served a notice pursuant to
     Clause 6.2(b) at the end of such one hundred and twenty (120) day period.

6.3  In the event that a notice is served by any Shareholder pursuant to Clause
     6.2(a) in respect of any of the Sale Shares, that Shareholder or any person
     procured or nominated by it as aforesaid (a "SHAREHOLDER PURCHASER") shall
     within thirty (30) days thereafter complete the purchase from the Vendor of
     the Relevant Number of the Sale Shares at the Prescribed Price. For this
     purpose, the "Relevant Number" shall mean, in respect of each Shareholder
     Purchaser, the maximum number of the Sale Shares specified by that
     Shareholder Purchaser pursuant to Clause 6.2(a) PROVIDED THAT, if the
     maximum numbers of the Sale Shares so specified by each Shareholder
     Purchaser, when aggregated together, ("THE AGGREGATE MAXIMUM NUMBER")
     exceed the total number of the Sale Shares, the Relevant Number in respect
     of each Shareholder Purchaser shall mean a number equal to (A multiplied by
     B) divided by C where A is the maximum number of the Sale Shares so
     specified by that Shareholder Purchaser pursuant to Clause 6.2(a), B is the
     total number of the Sale Shares and C is the Aggregate Maximum Number. The
     Vendor shall be bound to transfer the Relevant Number of the Sale Shares
     comprised in the notice to each Shareholder Purchaser at the Prescribed
     Price and, if it makes default in so doing, the Company may receive the
     purchase money and the Board may authorise some person to execute a
     transfer of the Sale Shares in favour of that Shareholder Purchaser and the
     Company shall hold the purchase money in trust for the Vendor. The receipt
     by the Company of the purchase money shall be a good discharge to each
     Shareholder Purchaser and, after the name of each Shareholder Purchaser has
     been entered in the Company's Register of Members in exercise of the
     aforesaid power, the validity of the proceedings shall not be questioned by
     any person.

6.4  In the event that the Vendor is not bound under the provisions of Clause
     6.3 to transfer all of the Sale Shares to any or all of the other
     Shareholders, the Vendor shall be at liberty to sell those of the Sale
     Shares which remain unsold under Clause 6.3 at any time within nine (9)
     months after the date of the Transfer Notice, to the Proposed Transferee at
     the Prescribed Price and otherwise upon no more favourable terms than those
     offered to the other Shareholders and as stated in the Transfer Notice.

6.5  The Board shall refuse to register any transfer of any Share other than a
     transfer permitted by this Agreement, which transfer the Board shall
     register.

                                       5
<PAGE>   7
6.6  All Shares transferred pursuant to this Clause shall be transferred as
     beneficial owner and free from all encumbrances together with all rights,
     benefits and advantages attached thereto as at the date of the Transfer
     Notice except the right to any dividend declared but not paid prior to the
     date of the relevant Transfer Notice.

6.7  The provisions of Clauses 6.1 to 6.4 inclusive shall not apply:

     (a)  to or in the event of the listing of any Shares on the London Stock
          Exchange or any other recognised stock exchange which is in compliance
          with Clause 7 and has been approved by the Board; or

     (b)  to or in the event of the sale of more than fifty (50) per cent of the
          total number of Shares in issue to a third party in compliance with
          Clause 5; or

     (c)  to or in the event of any transfer of any Shares by Cycad to any
          wholly owned subsidiary or Luna to CNBC Sports, National Broadcasting
          Company, Inc., Business News (Europe) Limited Partnership (the
          broadcaster of the CNBC Europe television channel), Parallel Media
          Group International Limited or any subsidiary of any the foregoing.

7.   LISTING

7.1  Unless unanimously agreed otherwise by the Shareholders, the Shareholders
     shall use their best endeavours to procure that, subject as mentioned in
     Clause 7.2, the shares of the Company will be listed as soon as practicable
     after the third anniversary of the Second Completion Date on the London
     Stock Exchange and/or (if unanimously agreed by the Shareholders) any other
     recognised Stock Exchange.

7.2  The obtaining of such listing shall be subject to market conditions and the
     Company being suitable for a listing at a value which is not less than the
     fair value of the Company provided that, if there is any dispute between
     the parties in this connection, such dispute will be referred to a merchant
     bank nominated by Shareholders holding together a majority of the total
     number of Shares in issue. Such merchant bank shall act as an expert and
     not as an arbitrator.

8.   NON-CIRCUMVENTION

8.1  In the event that any Shareholder receives at any time after the date of
     this Agreement a bona fide offer to subscribe for shares / acquire shares
     in a Relevant Third Party which it wishes to accept, that Shareholder
     undertakes (subject to Clause 8.2) that it shall give notice to Cycad
     containing full details of such subscription / acquisition offer and, if so
     requested by Cycad within fourteen (14) days after the date of such offer,
     that Shareholder shall procure that the Relevant Third Party shall make to
     Cycad the same offer to subscribe for / acquire the same proportion of
     shares in the Relevant Third Party at the same price per share as (in each
     case) has been made or offered to that Shareholder.

8.2  The provisions of Clause 8.1:

     (a)  shall continue in force for so long as Cycad is a Shareholder; and

                                       6
<PAGE>   8
            (b)   shall in any event immediately cease to be of any further
                  force or effect if Cycad fails to pay the Second Subscription
                  Price to the Company on the Second Completion Date.

      8.3   For the purposes of Clause 8.1, a "RELEVANT THIRD PARTY" shall mean
            any person (a) who operates a Web site on the Internet the content
            of which is primarily related to one or more sports and (b) in which
            no Shareholder holds any shares as at the date of this Agreement.

      9.    FUTURE SHARE ISSUES

      9.1   If at any time after the First Completion Date and prior to 30 June
            2000 the Company without the prior written consent of Cycad (such
            consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) issues any new
            Shares at a price per Share ("THE LOWER PRICE") which is lower than
            the price per Share paid by Cycad under this Agreement ("THE CYCAD
            PRICE"), then, subject always to Clause 9.2, Cycad shall have the
            right, exercisable by written notice to the Company to be served
            within thirty (30) days after the issue of such new Shares, to
            subscribe in cash the Relevant Amount for Additional Shares.

            For this purpose:

            (a)   the "RELEVANT AMOUNT" shall mean an amount equal to (A minus
                  B) multiplied by C where:

                  A = the Cycad Price;
                  B = the Lower Price; and
                  C = the total number of Shares subscribed for by Cycad
                  pursuant to Clauses 2.1 and 2.2; and

            (b)   the number of "ADDITIONAL SHARES" is that number of new
                  Shares which, when added to the number of Shares subscribed
                  for by Cycad pursuant to Clauses 2.1 and 2.2 and the resultant
                  total is divided by the aggregate of the First Subscription
                  Price, the Second Subscription Price and the Relevant Amount,
                  results in an average subscription price per Share equal to
                  the Lower Price.

            Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be obliged to issue
            any Shares at less than par value and, if by virtue of this Clause,
            it would otherwise be liable to do so, the subscription price per
            Additional Share shall be increased to its par value.

      9.2   The provisions of Clause 9.1:

            (a)   shall continue in force for so long as Cycad is a
                  Shareholder; and

            (b)   shall in any event immediately cease to be of any further
                  force or effect if Cycad fails to pay the Second Subscription
                  Price to the Company on the Second Completion Date.

Dear Sirs,

FOCUSED MEDIA LIMITED (THE "COMPANY")

Further to the proposed subscription by Cycad Financial Holdings Limited
("Cycad") of shares in the Company under a subscription and shareholders
agreement (the "Agreement"), dated 30 September 1999 between CNBC Sports

(a)   the matters set out in paragraphs 1 to 3 below are confirmed by CNBC
      Sports, Beverly Hills and Luna Trading; and

(b)   the matters set out in paragraphs 4 to 7 are agreed as amendments to the
      Agreement by all the parties thereto.

CONFIRMATIONS

1.    We, CNBC Sports and Beverly Hills as shareholders of the Company, and Luna
      Trading as holder of an option to purchase shares in the Company, confirm
      as follows:

      (i)   the Company is a properly constituted company, incorporated as a
            private limited company in the Republic of Ireland on 30 June 1998
            with registered number 289308;

      (ii)  (subject to paragraph 2 below) the current authorised share capital
            of the Company is L.1,000,000 of which 151,691 shares of L.1 each
            are in issue;

      (iii) the GlobalGolf.com domain name is owned by Global Golf Limited;

      (iv)  Global Golf Limited is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company;
