                           INTERNAP NETWORK SERVICES
                        TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE

This Agreement is made and entered into this day of December l7th, 1997, by and
between InterNAP Network Services Corporation, a Washington Company
("InterNAP"), 2001 Sixth Avenue, Suite 300, Seattle, Washington 98121, and
HomeGrocer.com. a corporation or business entity, having its office at 1445
120th Ave N.E., Bellevue, WA 93005 ("Customer"). When referred to collectively,
InterNAP and Customer shall be referred to as the "Parties'.

1.   Scope of the Services.

     A.   Service.  Customer agrees to purchase from InterNAP, and InterNAP
shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, provide the
service ("Service") described in Attachment A to this Agreement.

     B.   Support Services.  InterNAP shall provide Customer with a policies and
procedures document which discusses standard technical support relative to the
Service, and instructs Customer how to contact InterNAP, and the InterNAP
technical support staff, by means of telephone, email, and pager. The InterNAP
Network Operations Center ("NOC") will monitor the service being provided to
Customer for purposes of ensuring that TCP/IP connectivity relating to the
Service is maintained, and also for providing reasonable and appropriate outage
response and trouble-shooting related to the maintenance of such connectivity.
In the event of an outage or failure of connectivity relating to the Service,
the InterNAP NOC will follow InterNAP's standard outage response and
troubleshooting protocols which will include notification to Customer in a
manner consistent to a notification process mutually agreed upon between the
Parties. Customer will submit a Customer Installation Form which outlines
trouble contacts and Service configuration details to InterNAP prior to
scheduling of the Service installation. Information provided on the Customer
Installation Form will remain in effect until amended or rescinded by Customer
in writing in advance.

     Further, InterNAP will provide Customer with an emergency access telephone
number. Customer agrees to use this emergency number only in instances which
could reasonably be described as emergency in nature, and which have occurred
through no fault of Customer. InterNAP reserves the right, at its sole
discretion, to bill Customer for all non-emergency calls directed to InterNAP
via the InterNAP emergency number. In the event that Customer requires a non-
standard form of technical support, where such non-standard form of support is
not in the nature of an emergency, Customer may make special contractual
arrangements with InterNAP to provide such non-standard service under terms and
conditions to be mutually agreed upon between the Parties.

2.   Contract Term and Termination.

     A.   The term of the Agreement shall commence on the above date, and shall
continue for a minimum period of one (1) year, unless specified as a longer term
under the formerly quoted
<PAGE>

terms on the attached Sales Order Form provided to Customer and incorporated
herein by reference. After completion of the first full term of this Agreement,
this Agreement shall be automatically renewed for successive one-year periods
unless either Party hereto provides written notice of termination at least
thirty (30) days prior to expiration of the then current Term.

     B.   This Agreement may be terminated without notice upon the occurrence of
any of the following: 1) Any material breach of this Agreement; 2) Customer's
failure to continue to function as a going concern, or to operate in the
ordinary course of business; 3) any assignment by Customer for the benefit of
creditors; 4) any filing of either voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy by
Customer or Customer's creditors; 5) a failure by either Party hereto to honor
any non-disclosure or confidentiality obligations arising under this Agreement
or failing to honor the employee recruitment restrictions set forth within this
Agreement below.

     C.   InterNAP shall provide Customer a ninety (90) Day Satisfaction
Guarantee whereby Customer may cancel or terminate this Agreement for any reason
within the first ninety days of service without an Early Cancellation Penalty.
In the event that Customer elects to terminate or cancel this Agreement after
the first ninety days (90) days of service and prior to the expiration date of
the then current term of the Agreement, and does so without the express written
consent of InterNAP, then Customer shall be liable to InterNAP for an early
cancellation penalty in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the
dollar amount, in USD currency, that Customer would otherwise be paying to
InterNAP over the remainder of the term of this Agreement. In such a case,
Customer agrees to pay said penalty amount without any invoice or demand for
same from InterNAP, and do so within thirty (30) days after effecting the early
termination/cancellation of this Agreement.

     D.   This Agreement may be terminated by mutual consent between the Parties
as expressed in a duly executed writing between the Parties.

this Agreement, which are not paid by Customer within 45 days after the date of
an invoice shall be subject to late charges. Late charges assessed by InterNAP
to Customer shall accrue at a rate of 1.5% interest per month on any unpaid
balances which are delinquent. Extended delinquency and nonpayment on the part
of Customer for any amounts invoiced to Customer by InterNAP shall entitle
InterNAP to either suspend its performance obligations under this Agreement, or

any additional fees that Customer may, from time to time, incur for services not
covered under this Agreement. Customer acknowledges and agrees that InterNAP
reserves the right to price certain services, which shall be described and
indicated in any such Schedule, in accordance with the reasonable circumstances
which might give rise to the provision of any such services.

revised formal descriptions of standard InterNAP products or services, and

termination procedures stated herein. Upgrades in service requested by Customer
may result in additional set-up fees.

days from the original delivery date specified in the Sales Order Form, InterNAP
receives Customer's requested delay in writing no less than five (5) working
days prior to the original delivery date, and Customer agrees to pay any
additional charges or costs to InterNAP resulting from the requested delay.
Should Customer delay delivery of the Service for more than thirty (30) calendar
days beyond the original specified delivery date, then InterNAP shall invoice
Customer for all applicable charges for the Service effective thirty (30)
calendar days from the originally specified delivery date unless InterNAP
receives Customer's written notice to cancel the affected Services on or before
the date which is thirty (30) calendar days from the original delivery date,
