            provided in Clause 4.4, and upon Completion), (i) a total of
            4,128,000 New Shares be allotted and issued by the Holding Company
            to an entity (the "Designated Entity") designated and notified in

            without limitation, liability in relation to tax) in respect of any
            Group Company, Mr. Demopoulos shall indemnify the Group Company
            against all losses, claims, damages, costs and expenses arising from

      -------------

2.1   The Covenantors hereby jointly and severally covenant with and undertake
      to the Covenantee and the Company to indemnify and keep indemnified the
      Covenantee and (as a separate covenant) the Company, as the case may be,
      on a continuing basis against :-

      (a)   (i)    the amount of any claim for taxation which has been made or
                   may hereafter be made against the Company; and

            (ii)   the amount of any claim for taxation which has been made or
                   may hereafter be made against the PRC Subsidiary,

            in each case wholly or partly in respect of or in consequence of any
            event occurring or any income, profits or gains earned, accrued or
            received by the Company or the PRC Subsidiary on or before
            Completion and which has not been fully provided for in the Audited
            Accounts or the Latest Accounts, whether or not such taxation is
            chargeable against or attributable to any other person;

      (b)   any claim for taxation arising on the death of any person under the
            Estate Duty Ordinance (Cap.111) at any time by reason of any
            transfer of any property to the Company made or deemed to have been
            made on or before Completion; and

      (c)   any claim for taxation arising on the death of any person under the
            Estate Duty Ordinance (Cap.111) at any time by reason of any
            transfer of any property to the PRC Subsidiary or any of them (as
            the case may be) made or deemed to have been made on or before
            Completion

2.2   No claim under this Deed shall be made if a claim in respect thereof has
      been successfully made and satisfied under the Sale and Purchase Agreement
      up to that extent and up to that amount.

2.3   Any payment to any of the Covenantee or the Company ("Covenanted Party")
      of any amount of indemnity to which such Covenanted Party is entitled
      under this Deed shall, to the extent such payment is received by such
      Covenanted Party, be treated as satisfaction of the entitlement of the
      other Covenanted Party of the same amount of indemnity to which any of
      such other Covenanted Party is or would be entitled under this Deed.

2.4   Notwithstanding any terms herein, the indemnities given by this Deed do
      not cover any claim:

      (a)   to the extent that provision or reserve in respect thereof has been
            made in the Audited Accounts or the Latest Accounts or to the extent
            that payment or discharge of such claim has been taken into account
            therein;

                                     - E-4 -

<PAGE>

      (b)   for which the Company or the PRC Subsidiary are or may become
            primarily liable as a result of transactions in the ordinary course
            of their business after the date hereof or for which the Company or
            the PRC Subsidiary may become liable as a result of legislation
            which comes into force after the date hereof and which is
            retrospective in effect;

      (c)   in respect of which provision or reserve has been made in the
            Audited Accounts or the Latest Accounts which is insufficient only
            by reason of any increase in rates of taxation made after the date
            hereof; and

      (d)   which would not have arisen but for a voluntary act or transaction
            which could reasonably have been avoided or carried out by the
            Purchaser (or persons deriving title from it) or the Company or the
            PRC Subsidiary after the date hereof otherwise than in the ordinary
            course of business and which the Purchaser was aware or should
            reasonably have been aware could give rise to a claim.

3.    Waiver
      ------

      No delay or omission by the Covenantee or the Company in exercising any
      rights, powers or privileges hereunder shall impair such rights, powers or
      privileges or be construed as a waiver thereof and any single or partial
      exercise of any such rights, powers or privileges shall not preclude the
      further exercise of any right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies
      of the Covenantee and the Company provided in this Deed are cumulative and
      not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law.

4.    The due date and interest
      -------------------------

      The Covenantors undertakes jointly and severally to pay to the Covenantee
      or the Company, as the case may be, an amount equal to the amount of any
      taxation payable in relation to any claim for taxation on or before the
      date which is:

      (i)   the third Business Day prior to the date on which the taxation in
            question is payable to the authority or official or person demanding
            the same (on the assumption that no deferment or appeal against such
            claim is granted or made); or

      (ii)  if it is later and the Covenantors provide security satisfactory to
            the Covenantee or the Company, as the case may be, for the
            Covenantors' liability under this Deed, the third Business Day prior
            to the date to which payment of the taxation in question is deferred
            following application or appeal to the appropriate authority,
            official, court, tribunal or body of the jurisdiction concerned.

5.    Notice of claims
      ----------------

                                     - E-5 -

<PAGE>

      In the event of any claim arising the Covenantee or the Company (as the
      case may be) shall by way of covenant, but not as a condition precedent to
      the liability of the Covenantors hereunder, give or procure that notice
      thereof is as soon as reasonably practicable given to the Covenantors or
      any of them in the manner provided in Clause 10 and as regards any claim
      the Covenantee or the Company (as the case may be) shall at the joint
      request of the Covenantors take such action as the Covenantors may
      reasonably request jointly to cause the claim to be withdrawn, or to
      dispute, resist, appeal against, compromise or defend the claim and any
      determination in respect thereof but subject to the Covenantee or the
      Company (as the case may be) being indemnified and secured to its
      reasonable satisfaction by the Covenantor against all losses (including
      additional taxation), costs, damages and expenses which may be thereby
      incurred Provided that none of the Covenantors shall make any settlement
      the effect of which is likely to increase the future taxation liability of
      the Covenantee or the Company or any of them, as the case may be, (other
      than liability which would have arisen from a proper determination of the
      dispute) Provided further that the obligations of the Covenantee or the
      Company under this clause shall in so far as they concern any obligation
      to be observed by the Covenantee or the Company be on a best endeavours
      basis.

6.    Effect of new laws
      ------------------

      The indemnity given by Clause 2 does not cover any claim to the extent
      that such claim arises or is incurred as a result of the imposition of
      taxation as a consequence of any retrospective change in the law coming
      into force after the date of Completion or to the extent that such claim
      arises or is increased by an increase in rates of taxation after the date
      of Completion with retrospective effect.

7.    Release of the Covenantors
      --------------------------

7.1   Any liability of the Covenantors to the Covenantee or the Company under
      this Deed may, with the agreement in writing of the Covenantee or the

      or compromised by the Covenantee or the Company (as the case may be), and
      time or other indulgence may, with the agreement in writing of the
      Covenantee be granted to the Covenantor by the Covenantee or the Company
      (as the case may be) without in any way prejudicing or affecting any of
      their other rights powers or remedies against the Covenantors or any of
      them under this Deed.

7.2   If after the Covenantors or any of them have made any payment to any of
      the Covenanted Party of any amount of indemnity to which such Covenanted
      Party is entitled under this Deed, the Covenantee, the Companyor the PRC
      Subsidiary shall receive a refund, or recover from a third party, of all
      or part of the relevant taxation in respect of which the relevant
      Covenantor(s) has made such payment of indemnity under this Deed, such
      Covenanted Party shall as soon as practicable, and in any event within 14
      Business Days

                                     - E-6 -

      to the amount of such refund or recovery.

      ----------------

      unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, neither
      the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law
      of any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired
      thereby.

9.    Assignment
      ----------

THIS AGREEMENT is made as of __________ , 2000

BETWEEN :-

1.    SHARKWAVE ASIA PACIFIC LIMITED (the "Company"); and

2.    FREDERICK MICHAEL DEMOPOULOS (the "Executive")

WHEREAS :-

The Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") recognizes that the
Executive's employment by the Company is important to the growth and success of
the Company and desires to assure the Executive's employment with the Company as
a member of senior management and to compensate him therefor, and the Executive
is willing to be employed by the Company for a fixed term of two (2) years on
and subject to the terms and conditions herein provided.

IN CONSIDERATION OF the foregoing and the respective covenants and agreements of
the parties herein contained, the parties hereto AGREE as follows:

1.    Employment and Acceptance
      -------------------------

      The Company hereby employs the Executive and the Executive hereby accepts
      employment from the Company, upon the terms and conditions set forth in
      this Agreement, for the period from [to insert the Completion Date] (the
      "Commencement Date") and ending as provided in Clause 4 hereof (the
      "Employment Period").

2.    Duties and Title
      ----------------

(a)   The Executive agrees to use his best efforts, skill and abilities to
      promote the Company's interest in his capacity as the Chief Executive
      Officer of the Company and of the Company's subsidiaries and to perform
      such duties (consistent with his status as set forth in this Clause 2 and
      the long-range business plan of the Company) as may be assigned to him by
      the Board. To the extent that the Executive shall serve in any capacity
      for subsidiaries of the Company, including as their chief strategic
      officer or member of their boards of directors, he shall do so without
      additional compensation.

(b)   The Executive agrees that he shall actively assist TOM.COM LIMITED to
      integrate the Company's business and activities with those of TOM.COM
      LIMITED's other sports or sports related business or strategic alliances
      or commitments.

                                     - G-2 -

<PAGE>

(c)   The Executive agrees that during the Employment Period, he shall devote
      all of his business time and effort to the performance of his duties under
      this Agreement and shall not engage in any other business, profession or
      occupation for compensation or otherwise that would conflict with the
      rendition of such services either directly or indirectly, without the
      prior written consent of the Board.

3.    Compensation and Benefits
      -------------------------

3.1   Compensation. As compensation for services to be rendered pursuant to this
      Agreement, the Company shall pay the Executive a base salary (the "Base
      Salary"), payable in regular installments in accordance with the Company's
      usual payment practices, but no less frequently than monthly, such Base
      Salary to be less such deductions or amounts to be withheld as shall be
      required by applicable law and regulations. The Base Salary shall be
      reviewed annually by the Board.

3.2   Housing Allowance. The Company shall pay the Executive a housing allowance
      (the "Housing Allowance"), payable in regular installments in accordance
      with the Company's usual payment practices, but no less frequently than
      monthly.

3.3   Bonus. For each fiscal year ending during the Employment Period, the
      Executive will be eligible for a performance-based annual bonus (the
      "Bonus") as determined by the Board (or its compensation committee) in its
      sole discretion.

3.4   Level of Base Salary, Housing Allowing and Bonus. The Base Salary, the
      Housing Allowance and the minimum amount of the Bonus shall in aggregate
      be HK$1,500,000 per annum, and the split of that figure amongst the three
      items shall be further agreed between the Company and the Executive. For
      the fiscal year in which the Commencement Date falls or for any part of
      the Employment Period which is shorter than one year, the total sum of the
      Base Salary, the Housing Allowance and the minimum amount of the Bonus
      payable shall be calculated in proportion to the length of the relevant
      part of the Employment Period.

3.5   Employee Benefit Plans. During the Employment Period, the Executive shall
      be entitled to all employee benefit plans, programs and arrangements
      maintained by the Company for its senior executives generally, to the
      extent he is eligible under the terms of such plans, and to receive such
      insurance benefits as the Company generally provides for its senior
      executives.

3.6   Vacation. The Executive shall be entitled to 24 days of paid vacation per
      calendar year, in accordance with Company vacation policies.

                                     - G-3 -

3.7   Business Expenses. The Company shall pay or reimburse the Executive
      promptly for all reasonable business expenses actually incurred and paid
      by him during the Employment Period in the performance of services under
      this Agreement, upon presentation to the Company of expense statements or
      vouchers or such other supporting information as the Company may require;
      provided, however, that a reasonable maximum amount available for such
      expenses during any period may be fixed in advance by the Board; and
      provided, further, that the Executive shall not be required to incur any
      such expenses in excess of such maximum amount that have not been approved
      by the Board.

4.    Term
      ----

      the Commencement Date and, subject to Clause 4(b) below, shall continue
      thereafter.

(b)   (i)   After the second anniversary from the Commencement Date, the
            Employment Period shall terminate :-

            (aa)   subject to Clause 4(c) below, upon the Executive giving to
                   the Company prior written notice of three months; or

            (bb)   upon the Company giving to the Executive prior written notice
                   of three months.

      (ii)  The Employment Period shall terminate at any time:

            (aa)   upon the Executive's death; or

            (bb)   upon the permanent disability or incapacity of the Executive
                   that causes the Executive to be unable to perform his duties
                   under this Agreement (as determined by the good faith
                   judgment of a physician reasonably satisfactory to the
                   Company and the Executive).

      (iii) The Employment Period may be terminated immediately by the Company
            at any time prior to such date for Cause (as defined below) or
            without Cause.

(c)   If the Executive has expressed his intention to discontinue the employment
      upon or after the second anniversary from the Commencement Date, the
      Executive shall source his successor, whose identity and qualification
      shall meet with the requirements and prior approval of TOM.COM LIMITED and
      the Company. In the event that a suitable

                                     - G-4 -

<PAGE>

      successor acceptable to TOM.COM LIMITED and the Company is unable to be
      sourced within two months, the Executive agrees that he shall continue his
      employment with the Company for a further term of one (1) year from the
      date of the written notice given by the Executive to the Company
      expressing his intention to discontinue the employment.

(d)   If the Employment Period is terminated by the Company without Cause, then
      the Executive shall be entitled to receive:

      (i)   his Base Salary and Housing Allowance; and

      (ii)  the pro rata portion of the Bonus which the Executive would have
            received,

      in each case for the 12 month period (starting from the Commencement Date
      or anniversary thereof, as the case may be) in which his employment was
      terminated, and in each case so long as the Executive has not materially
      breached any provision of Clauses 5, 6.1, 6.2 or 7 hereof.

(e)   If the Employment Period is terminated by the Company for Cause or is
      terminated pursuant to Clause 4(b)(i) or (ii) above, the Executive shall
      be entitled to receive his Base Salary and Housing Allowance only up to
      the date of termination.

(f)   For purposes of this Agreement, "Cause" shall mean (i) the commission of a
      felony (or an equivalent crime) or a crime involving moral turpitude or
      the commission of any other act involving dishonesty or fraud under the

      subsidiaries, (ii) conduct tending to bring the Company or any of its

      of its subsidiaries or (v) any other material breach of this Agreement by
      the Executive which is not cured within 15 days after written notice
      thereof to the Executive, in each case as determined in the good faith
      judgment of the Board.

5.    Confidential Information.
      ------------------------

(a)   The Executive acknowledges that he has been advised by the Company that it
      would not enter into this Agreement unless assured of the confidentiality
      covenants contained in this Clause 5 which, the Executive acknowledges,
      are essential to protect the business and goodwill of the Company. The
      Executive acknowledges that the proprietary information, observations and
      data obtained by him while employed by the Company concerning the
      organization, business, technology, finance, transactions or affairs of
      the Company or any of its subsidiaries ("Confidential Information") are
      the property of the Company or such subsidiary. Therefore, the Executive
      agrees that he shall not disclose to any unauthorized person or use for
      his own account, any Confidential Information without

      the aforementioned matters are or become generally known to and available
      for use by the members of the industry in which the Company operates other
      than as a result of Executive's acts or omissions to act and (ii) the
      Executive may, after giving prior notice to the Company to the extent
      practicable under the circumstances and subject to any practicable
      arrangements to protect confidentiality, disclose such matters to the
      extent required by applicable laws or governmental regulations or judicial
      or regulatory process or in connection with any judicial process or
      arbitration regarding any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of
      or relating to this Agreement or the business of the Company or any of its
      subsidiaries.

(b)   The Executive shall deliver to the Company at the termination of the
      Employment Period, or at any other time the Company may request, all
      memoranda, notes, plans, records, reports, computer tapes and software and
      other documents and data (and copies thereof) relating to the Confidential
      Information, Work Product (as defined in Clause 7) or the business of the

6.2   Non-Solicitation. During the Executive's employment with the Company and
      for a period of six months following the Executive's termination of
      employment for any reason (including expiration of the Employment Period),

      solicitation, or otherwise advise or encourage any current or prospective
      employee, consultant, independent contractor, agent, client or
      representative of, or any vendor or supplier to, the Company (or any of
      its subsidiaries) to terminate his, her or its relationship with the
      Company (or any of its subsidiaries) or to enter into a business or
      employment relationship of any kind with any other individual or entity.

6.3   Rights and Remedies Upon Breach. If the Executive breaches, or the Company
      reasonably believes the Executive threatens to commit a breach of, any of
      the provisions

                                     - G-6 -

<PAGE>

      of Clauses 5,6.1 and 6.2 (the "Restrictive Covenants"), the Company shall
      have the following rights and remedies, each of which rights and remedies
      shall be independent of the others and severally enforceable, and each of
      which is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies
      available to the Company under law or in equity:

      (a)   Specific Performance. The right and remedy to have the Restrictive
            Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent
            jurisdiction, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach
            of the Restrictive Covenants would cause irreparable injury to the
            Company and/or its subsidiaries and their business and that money
            damages would not provide an adequate remedy to the Company.

      (b)   Accounting. The right and remedy to require the Executive to account
            for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profits, monies,
            accruals, increments or other benefits ("Benefits") derived or
            received by the Executive as the result of any transaction
            constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants, and the
            Executive hereby agrees to account for and pay over such Benefits to
            the Company.

6.4   Severability of Covenants. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the
      Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and valid in geographical and
      temporal scope and in all other respects. If any court determines that any
      of the Restrictive Covenants, or any part thereof, is invalid or
      unenforceable, the remainder of the Restrictive Covenants shall not
      thereby be affected and shall be given full effect without regard to the
      invalid portions.

6.5   Blue-Pencilling. If any court determines that any of the Restrictive
      Covenants, or any part thereof, is unenforceable because of the duration
      or geographic scope of such provision, such court shall have the power to
      reduce the duration or scope of such provision, as the case may be, and,
      in its reduced form, such provision shall then be enforceable.

7.    Inventions and Work Product.
      ---------------------------

      The Executive agrees that all inventions, innovations, improvements,
      developments, methods, designs, analyses, drawings, reports, and all
      similar or related information which are conceived, developed or made by
      the Executive for the Company or any of its subsidiaries in respect of
      their respective business while employed by the Company or any of its
      subsidiaries (collectively, "Work Product") belong to the Company or such
      subsidiary. The Executive will promptly disclose such Work Product to the
      Board and perform all actions reasonably requested by the Board (whether
      during or after the Employment Period) to establish and confirm such
      ownership (including, without limitation, assignments, consents, powers of
      attorney and other instruments).
