     2.1 LICENSE GRANT.


          (a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, IMGIS hereby grants to
AOL a perpetual, worldwide, nonexclusive, nontransferable (except as set forth
in Section 15.12 below), royalty-free license under all of IMGIS' patent,
copyright, trade secret and other proprietary rights to use, reproduce, adapt,
transmit, perform, display and otherwise practice the Technology or any part
thereof, other than commercially available Third Party software that IMGIS has
the right to provide to AOL only upon payment of a fee to the Third Party,
solely for the Permitted Purposes and to sublicense such rights to AOL
Affiliates solely for the Permitted Purposes.

          (b) If any Technology consists of commercially available Third Party
software that IMGIS has the right to provide to AOL only upon payment of a fee
to the Third Party, AOL may, by written notice to IMGIS and payment of such fee,
require IMGIS to grant to AOL a perpetual, worldwide, nonexclusive,
nontransferable (except as set forth in Section 15.12 below), royalty-free
(except for such fee) license under all applicable patent, copyright, trade
secret and other proprietary rights to use, reproduce, adapt, transmit, perform,
display and otherwise practice such Technology or any part thereof solely for
the Permitted Purposes and to sublicense such rights to AOL Affiliates solely
for the Permitted Purposes (but only to the extent of IMGIS' rights in such
Technology).

          (c) In the event that AOL grants a sublicense to an AOL Affiliate
under any of the licenses granted in Section 2.1(a) or (b) above, AOL shall
enter into a sublicense agreement with such AOL Affiliate in a form to be
approved by IMGIS, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, and
included in such sublicense shall be the agreement of such AOL Affiliate to be
bound by the terms of this Agreement. AOL shall notify IMGIS of the grant of any
sublicense to an AOL Affiliate.

          (d) AOL shall not disclose or transfer the source code for any
Software included in the Technology to any AOL Affiliate that is not a
wholly-owned subsidiary of AOL. If IMGIS includes trademark or other proprietary
rights notices on copies of the Technology delivered to AOL, AOL shall reproduce
such notices on copies of the Technology made by AOL.

          (e) The Parties agree that neither the licenses granted in this
Section 2.1 nor any other provisions of this Agreement impose or shall be
construed to impose any obligation upon AOL to use or otherwise practice the
Technology. IMGIS agrees that it shall not bring any action in law or equity, or
any other judicial or nonjudicial proceeding, against AOL asserting that the use
by AOL of any patent rights claiming the Technology that are now or hereafter
owned by or licensed to IMGIS or any other Technology infringes or otherwise
violates any patent, copyright, trade secret or other proprietary rights of
IMGIS.

     2.2 EXERCISE OF RIGHTS. AOL may exercise its rights in and to the
Technology at any location, on any hardware, and with respect to all, none or
any portion or combination of the Technology. Nothing in this Agreement shall

     2.3 USE OF PERSONNEL. AOL may exercise its rights hereunder through
Personnel who are obligated by written agreement to maintain the Technology in
confidence and restrict their use of the Technology pursuant to terms comparable
to those set forth in Article 13.

     3.1 INITIAL DELIVERY. Within 45 days after the date hereof, IMGIS shall
deliver to AOL: (a) one machine-readable copy of the object code for the
Software; (b) one copy of available technical and user documentation for the
Technology in printed and machine-readable format as available; and (c) one
machine-readable copy of the source code for the Software. Such delivery shall
be transmitted electronically or by any other means agreed upon by IMGIS and
AOL.

     3.2 DELIVERY OF IMPROVEMENTS AND OTHER TECHNOLOGY.

          (a) IMGIS shall use commercially reasonable efforts regularly to
develop Improvements to adapt the Technology to changes in related technologies
and in market and user requirements and to remain competitive with alternative
technologies for the serving, trafficking and/or targeting of advertisements or
other information or materials.

          (b) At such times as reasonably requested by AOL, IMGIS shall provide
AOL with any Improvements made by or on behalf of IMGIS and any other Technology
requested by AOL that is existing and not then in the possession of AOL. In
addition, commencing no later than 45 days after such time that AOL determines
to deploy the Technology in whole or in part (the "Deployment Date"), IMGIS
shall provide to AOL on a quarterly basis the then current version of the source
code for the Software and shall provide to AOL any and all Improvements,
including upgrades, updates, enhancements, patches and "bug" fixes, prior to or
concurrently with their installation or release, by any means requested by AOL
(including electronically), along with the applicable documentation related to
such Improvement.

          (c) IMGIS shall provide all Improvements and other Technology, other
than Improvements provided in the provision of Development Services, to AOL
without any additional charge or fee provided that, in the case of any
Improvement, AOL is in compliance with all of its material obligations under the
Demographic Data Agreement and does not Materially Limit or Prohibit the use by
IMGIS of Demographic Data at the time such Improvement is developed. If AOL
ceases to be in compliance with all of its material obligations under the
Demographic Data Agreement or Materially Limits or Prohibits the use by IMGIS of
Demographic Data, and AOL desires to continue receiving Improvements from IMGIS,
then AOL shall pay to IMGIS on an annual basis a reasonable update fee to be
agreed upon by the Parties for all Improvements developed for so long as AOL is
not in compliance with all of its material obligations under the Demographic
Data Agreement or Materially Limits or Prohibits the use by IMGIS of Demographic
Data; provided that such fee shall not exceed (i) IMGIS' customary update fees
for such Improvements in arm's length transactions with its licensees, if IMGIS
then licenses the Technology to Third Parties, or (ii) update fees charged by
other licensors of comparable systems for serving, trafficking and/or targeting
of advertisements or other information or materials, but not less

than IMGIS' cost of providing such Improvements, if IMGIS does not then license
the Technology to Third Parties.

          (d) At AOL's request, IMGIS shall identify to AOL, and provide AOL
reasonable information and assistance in furtherance of AOL's efforts to
acquire, at AOL's own expense, commercially available Third Party software
licensed to IMGIS for use in connection with the Technology and not sublicensed
to AOL under Section 2.1(a) or (b) above.

                           TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES

     4.1 SCOPE OF SERVICES.

          (a) During the term of this Agreement, IMGIS shall provide to AOL, at
AOL's written request, reasonable technical training, support, documentation and
assistance relating to the interactive content (including interactive
advertisement) serving, trafficking, targeting and related functions of the
Technology (collectively, "Technical Support Services"). The Technical Support
Services shall, at a minimum, enable AOL, without the aid of IMGIS or any other
Person, to develop, enhance and maintain the Technology (including the source
code for the Software) for use by AOL to the same extent as IMGIS.

          (b) Commencing no later than 45 days after the Deployment Date, the
Technical Support Services shall include, without limitation: (i) the regular
provision by IMGIS of qualified Personnel able to resolve problems in the
operation of the Technology on-site at AOL's data centers in the greater
Washington metropolitan area; and (ii) the provision by IMGIS of telephone
access 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to qualified Personnel able to resolve
problems in the operation of the Technology, via a designated telephone support
number.

     4.2 FEES FOR TECHNICAL SERVICES SUPPORT.

          (a) Provided that, at the time any Technical Support Services are
requested by AOL or are to be performed by IMGIS, AOL is in compliance with all
of its material obligations under the Demographic Data Agreement and does not
Materially Limit or Prohibit the use by IMGIS of Demographic Data, IMGIS shall
provide the Technical Support Services requested by AOL for no additional
consideration other than reimbursement of the Fully Burdened Costs of the
provision by IMGIS Personnel of such Technical Support Services.

          (b) If, at the time any Technical Support Services are requested by
AOL or are to be performed by IMGIS: (i) the Implementation Date has not yet
occurred under the Demographic Data Agreement and no more than twelve months
have passed since the

execution of the Demographic Data Agreement, then AOL shall pay to IMGIS the
Fully Burdened Costs of the provision by IMGIS Personnel of such Technical
Support Services plus twenty-five percent (25%) of such costs; or (ii) the
Implementation Date has not yet occurred under the Demographic Data Agreement
and more than twelve months have passed since the execution of the
Demographic Data Agreement, then AOL shall pay to IMGIS the Fully Burdened
Costs of the provision by IMGIS Personnel of such Technical Support Services
plus forty percent (40%) of such costs.

          (c) If, following the occurrence of the Implementation Date, at the
time any Technical Support Services are requested by AOL or are to be performed
by IMGIS, AOL is not in compliance with all of its material obligations under
the Demographic Data Agreement or Materially Limits or Prohibits the use by
IMGIS of Demographic Data, then AOL shall pay to IMGIS the Fully Burdened Costs
of the provision by IMGIS Personnel of such Technical Support Services plus
twenty-five percent (25%) of such costs.

     4.3 WARRANTY. In the event that the Technology fails to conform to or
perform in accordance with the technical or user documentation provided by IMGIS
(other than as a result of operator error, accident, or misuse or alteration of
the Technology by a Person not under IMGIS' direction or control) or in the
event of a breach of the warranties set forth in Section 10.2(e) or 10.2(f)
below, then IMGIS, at its expense and without any payment by AOL for Technical
Support or other Services, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cure
such failure or breach as soon as practicable, but in any event:

          (a)  For a "critical" failure or breach, such as the Technology, or
               other software, hardware or other technology with which the
               Technology is interfacing or integrating, ceasing to execute a
               function that AOL reasonably deems critical to its business,
               IMGIS shall provide at least a temporary workaround or fix within
               two hours of receiving notice of such failure or breach and shall
               cure such failure or breach within three business days of
               receiving notice of such failure or breach; and

          (b)  For any other failure or breach that is not a "critical" problem,
               IMGIS shall provide at least a temporary workaround or fix within
               three business days of receiving notice of such failure or breach
               and shall cure such failure or breach within 15 days after
               receiving notice of such failure or breach.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, IMGIS agrees, by way of
example, that it shall not be unreasonable for AOL to deem a failure or breach
"critical to its business" as provided in subpart (a) above if such failure or
breach results or would result in the breach or nonperformance by AOL of any
obligation to any advertiser on the AOL Network.

limitation, developing the functionality to serve the same advertisement to the
top and bottom of a page, scaling search term capabilities, and undertaking such
other work as may be specified by AOL (collectively, "Development Services").
Notwithstanding the foregoing, AOL shall have no obligation to request or to use
Development Services of IMGIS and may undertake similar work itself or through

2.3 above.

     5.2 FEES FOR DEVELOPMENT SERVICES.

          (a) Provided that, at the time any Development Services are requested
by AOL or are to be performed by IMGIS, AOL is in compliance with all of its

Materially Limit or Prohibit the use by IMGIS of Demographic Data, IMGIS shall
provide the Development Services requested by AOL for no additional
consideration other than reimbursement of the Fully Burdened Costs of the
provision by IMGIS Personnel of such Development Services.

          (b) If, at the time any Development Services are requested by AOL
or are to be performed by IMGIS: (i) the Implementation Date has not yet

Personnel of such Development Services plus twenty-five percent (25%) of such
costs; or (ii) the Implementation Date has not yet occurred under the
Demographic Data Agreement and more than twelve months have passed since the

Technology includes Software licensed from Third Parties which IMGIS has the
right to provide to AOL.

     5.4 WORK FOR HIRE.

          (a) The Parties intend that each Work Product that is a work of
authorship shall be deemed a "work made for hire" within the meaning of the
copyright laws of the United States and any similar laws of other jurisdictions.
To the extent, if any, that IMGIS or its Personnel have rights in any Work
Product notwithstanding the foregoing, including because a Work Product does not
qualify as a "work made for hire," IMGIS hereby irrevocably assigns to AOL, and
agrees that AOL shall be the sole and exclusive owner of, all right, title and
interest in and to the Work Product, including all patent, copyright, trade
secret and other proprietary rights therein that may be secured in any place
under laws now or hereafter in effect.

          (b) To the extent that IMGIS provides Development Services in support
of any modification of the Technology, AOL hereby grants to IMGIS a perpetual,
worldwide, nonexclusive, nontransferable license to use, reproduce, adapt,
transmit, perform and display such modification in connection with the provision
of such Development Services and for no other purpose without AOL's prior
written approval. In the event that IMGIS desires to integrate such modification
in the Technology and obtains AOL's approval thereto, then IMGIS shall reimburse
AOL for any payment made by AOL for such Development Services, or waive such
payment by AOL, in consideration for the grant of such license to IMGIS. IMGIS
may exercise its rights under the foregoing license through Personnel who are
obligated by written agreement to maintain such modification in confidence and
restrict their use of such modification pursuant to terms comparable to those
set forth in Article 13.

          (c) IMGIS shall have valid and enforceable written agreements with all
of its Personnel providing Development Services hereunder containing
confidentiality and nondisclosure obligations comparable in scope to those set
forth in Article 13 and giving IMGIS all rights and authority necessary to

these agreements to AOL upon AOL's request.

          (d) To the extent that IMGIS delivers to AOL any Improvements,
designs, drawings, specifications, documentation, computer software, reports,
training materials, inventions, discoveries and other items that are not Work
Products, such items shall be deemed included in the Technology and licensed
pursuant to Section 2.1 above.

     5.5 CHANGE MANAGEMENT PROCESS. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of
this Article 5, in the event that AOL implements a version of the Technology
containing any modification to the source code for the Software that adds a
substantially new feature or function to the version of the Technology used by
IMGIS (in contrast to merely correcting what are colloquially known as "bugs" in
such Software or making any other

minor modification to an existing feature or function) then: (a) IMGIS shall not
be obligated to provide Development Services or Technical Support Services for
such Improvement; and (b) in the event that AOL does not request, or IMGIS does
not agree to provide, such Services, the Parties shall work together to devise a
change management process to facilitate the technical support and maintenance of
AOL's version of the Technology containing such Improvement.

material obligations under the Demographic Data Agreement and does not
Materially Limit or Prohibit the use by IMGIS of Demographic Data, IMGIS shall
provide the Ad Serving Services requested by AOL for no additional consideration
other than reimbursement of the Fully Burdened Costs of the provision by IMGIS
Personnel of such Ad Serving Services, provided, however, that in the event that
IMGIS agrees to provide any Ad Serving Services to any Third Party that is
similarly situated to AOL at a rate that is more favorable to such Third Party
than the consideration payable by AOL under this subpart (a), then IMGIS shall
provide the Ad Serving Services requested by AOL at such Third Party's rate.

          (b) If, at the time any Ad Serving Services are requested by AOL or
are to be performed by IMGIS: (i) the Implementation Date has not yet
occurred under the Demographic Data Agreement and no more than twelve months

the foregoing, upon the request of an AOL Partner, IMGIS agrees to provide Ad
Serving Services to the interactive sites of such AOL Partner which are not
Covered AOL Partner Sites on terms and at rates no less favorable than those
offered by IMGIS to any Third Party that is similarly situated to such AOL
Partner in terms of the volume of advertisements to be served by IMGIS for such
Third Party.

     6.4 REIMBURSEMENT FOR AD SERVING SERVICES. In addition to the fees for Ad
Serving Services provided for in Section 6.2 above, AOL shall reimburse the
following costs incurred by IMGIS in the provision of Ad Serving Services
requested by AOL for the purposes set forth in Section 6.1 above, and, at AOL's
option, shall provide financing to IMGIS for such costs on mutually agreeable

               of the IMGIS AdForce System required to meet AOL's needs for the
               provision of Ad Serving Services (other than capitalized costs,
               which if financed at the time such costs are incurred, shall be
               reimbursed at the time such costs are amortized), excluding any
               modifications required to scale the Software or other Technology
               to meet AOL's needs;

          (b)  Reimbursement for IMGIS' incremental costs for any additional
               equipment that IMGIS must purchase or lease solely to meet AOL's
               needs for the provision of Ad Serving Services for so long as
               necessary to meet AOL's needs (and, if AOL provides financing for
               such equipment, then, at AOL's option, AOL may become the lessor
               of such equipment to IMGIS), unless AOL determines, in its sole
               discretion, to lease such equipment on its own; and

          (c)  Reimbursement for any additional incremental bandwidth costs
               incurred by IMGIS solely in connection with the provision of Ad
               Serving Services to AOL.

Partner or any other Person enters into an agreement with IMGIS to utilize the
IMGIS AdForce System, then, provided that, as of the time that IMGIS enters into
such agreement with such AOL Partner or other Person, AOL is in compliance with
all of its material obligations under the Demographic Data Agreement and does
not Materially Limit or Prohibit the use by IMGIS of Demographic Data, IMGIS
shall pay to AOL on a quarterly basis the following commissions on the gross
amount of the consideration charged by IMGIS to such AOL Partner or other Person
for use of the IMGIS AdForce System:

          (a)  For the first year of such agreement, the greater of 4% and
               the highest percentage commission granted by IMGIS at such time
               to any employee or agent of IMGIS or to any Third Party for
               similar marketing or sales efforts; and

          (b)  For each succeeding year of such agreement, the greater of 2%
               and the highest percentage commission granted by IMGIS at such
               time to any employee or agent of IMGIS or to any Third Party for
               similar marketing or sales efforts.

     7.3 COMMISSION SHARING. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 7.2
above, if AOL and any employee or agent of IMGIS or any other Third Party claims
commissions with respect to the same Person (and such Person has not entered
into an agreement with IMGIS solely as a result of AOL marketing efforts), IMGIS
shall not be required to pay total commissions to AOL and such Third Party in
excess of the amount specified in Section 7.2 and IMGIS may apportion the
applicable commission specified in Section 7.2 between AOL and the Third Party
in such manner as IMGIS determines in good faith to be equitable.

              SALE OF ADVERTISEMENTS ON BEHALF OF IMGIS' CUSTOMERS

     8.1 OBLIGATIONS OF IMGIS. IMGIS shall use commercially reasonable efforts
to encourage IMGIS Customers to grant to IMGIS the right to sell interactive
advertisements on their behalf and to obtain the right to assign to AOL the
right to sell such interactive advertisements. Prior to approaching an IMGIS
Customer about obtaining the right to sell interactive advertisements on behalf
of such IMGIS Customer, IMGIS shall discuss with AOL and with no other Person,
within a time period to be agreed upon by the Parties, whether AOL desires to
have IMGIS assign to AOL the right to sell interactive advertisements on behalf
of such IMGIS Customer.

     8.2 ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS TO AOL. In the event that IMGIS obtains the right
to sell interactive advertisements on behalf of any IMGIS Customer and AOL
agrees to have IMGIS assign such right to AOL, IMGIS shall grant to AOL, and AOL
shall obtain, the exclusive right (as to IMGIS and Persons deriving rights
through IMGIS) to sell interactive advertisements on behalf of such IMGIS
Customer to the same extent that IMGIS is entitled to sell such interactive
advertisements; provided, however, that (a) such right to sell interactive
advertisements shall convert to a nonexclusive right if AOL fails to meet
reasonable performance milestones for advertisement sales to be mutually agreed
upon by the Parties within 30 days after the date of IMGIS' assignment to AOL of
its right to sell interactive advertisements on behalf of such IMGIS Customer
and (b) such right shall revert to IMGIS in its entirety in the event that, and
for so long as, AOL ceases to be in compliance with all of its material
obligations under the Demographic Data Agreement or Materially Limits or
Prohibits the use by IMGIS of Demographic Data.

     8.3 REVENUE SHARING AND OTHER CONSIDERATION. AOL shall pay to IMGIS, on a
quarterly basis, fifty percent (50%) of all revenues received by AOL from the
sale of interactive advertisements on behalf of an IMGIS Customer, net of
selling commissions, expenses related to sales, and amounts payable to operators
of the relevant interactive sites. As consideration for the satisfaction by AOL
of additional performance milestones for advertisement sales to be mutually
agreed upon by the Parties within 30 days after the date of IMGIS' assignment to
AOL of its right to sell interactive advertisements on behalf of such IMGIS
Customer, IMGIS and AOL shall agree to either (i) a reduction in the percentage
of revenues payable by AOL from the sale of interactive advertisements on behalf
of such IMGIS Customer or (ii) the issuance to AOL of warrants to purchase
IMGIS' common stock (in addition to those being issued to AOL simultaneously
with the execution of this Agreement), provided that IMGIS has conducted an
initial public offering of its common stock as of the time of such issuance.

                               PAYMENT PROVISIONS

     9.1 PAYMENT PROCEDURES.

          (a) Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties, all payments
due by AOL for the provision of Services by IMGIS hereunder shall be due and
payable 30 days after the receipt by AOL of a proper invoice therefor from
IMGIS, which invoice shall include such detail and supporting documentation as
AOL may reasonably request.

          (b) Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Parties: (i) all
payments due by IMGIS under Article 7 in connection with IMGIS' entrance into an
agreement for use of the IMGIS AdForce System with an AOL Partner or other
Person as a result of AOL marketing efforts shall be paid to AOL within 60 days
after the end of the calendar quarter during which such agreement is entered
into and within 60 days after the end of each succeeding calendar quarter
thereafter; and (ii) all payments due by AOL

                                       15

                                                                    CONFIDENTIAL

under Article 8 in connection with the sale of interactive advertisements on
behalf of an IMGIS Customer shall be paid to IMGIS within 60 days after the end
of the calendar quarter during which IMGIS assigns to AOL its right to sell
interactive advertisements on behalf of such IMGIS Customer and within 60 days
after the end of each succeeding calendar quarter thereafter.

          (c) All payments due to the payee Party hereunder shall be paid to the
payee Party in U.S. Dollars by wire transfer, or by such other method mutually
agreed upon by the Parties, in each case at the expense of the payor Party, for
value no later than the due date thereof (with 24 hours advance notice of each
wire transfer) to such bank account or accounts as the payee Party shall
designate in writing within a reasonable period of time prior to such due date.

     9.2 LATE PAYMENT. Without limiting the payee Party's rights to pursue any
other remedies at law or in equity, if the payor Party fails to pay any payment
required under this Agreement on or before the due date therefor, then the payor
Party shall pay annually compounded interest on such amount at an annual rate
equal to the lower of (a) the highest rate permitted by applicable law and (b)
the lowest prime rate as published by The Wall Street Journal on or nearest to
such due date plus three percent (3%), which interest shall accrue from the date
the payment not timely made became due until the date such payment is paid in
full.

     9.3 APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS. Any payments received by the payee Party shall
be applied first to the satisfaction of the oldest of any unpaid, accrued
interest charges and, following payment of all such interest charges, to the
satisfaction of the oldest of any unpaid fees or other amounts due hereunder.

     9.4 TAXES.

          (a) All payments required to be made by the payor Party under this
Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction for, any and
all taxes that are levied on the transfer of such payments to the payee Party.
If any withholding or deductions are required by applicable law, payments shall
be made such that, after such withholding or deductions, the net amount that the
payee Party receives is equal to the amount due hereunder. The payor Party shall
file any information or tax returns with respect to such taxes, and the payor
Party shall indemnify the payee Party from any interest or other payments, fines
or penalties relating to or resulting from any failure, delay or error of the
payor Party in doing so.

          (b) IMGIS shall be responsible for the payment of any and all
transfer, sales, use or similar taxes that are levied on or in connection with
the transfer of the Technology to AOL, including any Improvements.



                                       16

     9.5 BOOKS AND RECORDS. Each Party shall keep full, true and accurate books
of account containing all particulars and reasonable supporting documentation,
in the case of IMGIS, in connection with the provision of Services hereunder and
the determination of any amounts payable to AOL under Article 7, and, in the
case of AOL, in connection with the determination of any amounts payable to
IMGIS under Article 8. All such books of account and reasonable supporting
documentation shall be located at the principal place of business of such Party
and shall be open for inspection by the other Party (the "auditing Party") or
any independent certified public accountant retained by the auditing Party, at a
time mutually acceptable to the Parties during normal business hours but no more
frequently than once each calendar year for three years following the end of the
calendar year to which they pertain (and access shall not be denied thereafter
if reasonably available). If such records are insufficient or any such
inspection discloses a discrepancy in favor of the auditing Party of five
percent (5%) or more of the amounts actually due for any period, then, in
addition to any other rights and remedies available to the auditing Party under
this Agreement, the audited Party shall pay or refund to the auditing Party the
amount of such discrepancy as well as the reasonable cost of such inspection
promptly following such Party's receipt from the auditing Party of the bill or
invoice for such inspection.

                         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     10.1 MUTUAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Party represents and
warrants to the other Party that:

          (a)  Such Party has the full corporate right, power and authority to
               execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and to consummate the
               transactions contemplated hereby;

          (b)  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the
               consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been
               duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of
               such Party;

          (c)  This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by an
               authorized officer of such Party, and is a legal, valid and
               binding obligation of such Party enforceable against it in
               accordance with its terms, except as enforcement may be limited
               by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such
               enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity)
               and the effect of applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium
               and other similar laws of general application relating to or
               affecting creditors' rights generally, including, without
               limitation, the effect of statutory or other laws regarding
               fraudulent conveyances and preferential transfers;

                                                                    CONFIDENTIAL

          (d)  Such Party's execution, delivery and performance of this
               Agreement shall not constitute a breach or default under any
               contract or agreement to which such Party is a party or by which
               it is bound or otherwise violate the rights of any Third Party;
               and

          (e)  No consent, approval or authorization of or from any governmental
               entity or any other Person not a Party to this Agreement, whether
               prescribed by law, regulation, contract or agreement, is required
               for such Party's execution, delivery and performance of this
               Agreement or consummation of the transactions contemplated
               hereby.

     10.2 ADDITIONAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF IMGIS. IMGIS further
represents and warrants to AOL that:

          (a)  WORKMANLIKE SERVICES. The Services shall be provided in a
               workmanlike manner, in accordance with the standards of care and
               diligence and the level of skill, knowledge and judgment normally
               practiced by nationally-recognized information technology
               services firms in performing services of a similar nature;

          (b)  NONINFRINGEMENT. The Technology does not, and any Improvements
               provided by IMGIS, any Work Products and AOL's use of the
               Technology and Work Products as authorized herein shall not,
               infringe any copyright, trade secret or other proprietary rights
               (except patent rights) of any Third Party or otherwise conflict
               with the rights of any Third Party, and, to the best of IMGIS'
               knowledge, the Technology does not, and any Improvements provided
               by IMGIS, any Work Products and AOL's use of the Technology and
               Work Products shall not, infringe any patent of any Third Party;

          (c)  NO LITIGATION. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
               arbitration pending, and, to the best of IMGIS' knowledge, there
               is no action, suit, proceeding, arbitration or claim threatened,
               concerning the Technology;

          (d)  NO LIENS OR ENCUMBRANCES. Except for the security interest in
               favor of Silicon Valley Bank that has been previously disclosed
               to AOL, the Technology is free from any security interests and
               other liens and encumbrances of Third Parties arising from the
               actions or inactions of IMGIS;

          (e)  NO UNAUTHORIZED CODE. The Technology does not, and any
               Improvements provided by IMGIS shall not, contain any back door,
               time bomb, drop dead device, protect codes, data destruct keys,
               or other software routine designed to disable a computer program

                                                                    CONFIDENTIAL

               automatically with the passage of time or under the control of
               any Person other than AOL. To the best of IMGIS' knowledge, the
               Technology does not, and any Improvements provided by IMGIS shall
               not, contain any virus, Trojan horse, worm or other software
               routine designed to permit unauthorized access or to disable,
               erase, modify, deactivate or otherwise harm software, hardware or
               data; and IMGIS covenants that, prior to or at the time of the
               delivery of any Technology (including any Improvement), IMGIS
               shall test the Technology using a current version of a reputable
               "antivirus" program and remove any such unauthorized codes; and

          (f)  YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE. All Software and other operational items
               included in the Technology shall: (i) properly execute with all
               date data, whether from years in the same century or different
               centuries, including by yielding correct results in arithmetic
               operations, comparisons and sorting of date fields and in leap
               year calculations; and (ii) not abnormally cease to execute or
               return an error message due to date-related processing.

     10.3 NO OTHER WARRANTIES. THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE
IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED
WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.



                                   ARTICLE 11
                                 INDEMNIFICATION

     11.1 INDEMNITY. AOL shall not be liable to IMGIS, any of its Affiliates or
any other Person for, and IMGIS shall indemnify and hold harmless AOL and all
AOL Affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents
(collectively, the "AOL Indemnitees"), from and against any Losses incurred
arising out of or resulting from: (a) any infringement of any patent, copyright,
trade secret or other proprietary right by the Technology or any Work Product,
except to the extent that such infringement arises solely from any Improvement
developed by AOL, or by IMGIS to AOL's specifications if IMGIS could not
reasonably have conformed to such specifications while avoiding the
infringement; or (b) the presence of IMGIS' employees or agents on the premises
of AOL or an AOL Affiliate (except those Losses that result solely from the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of AOL or an AOL Affiliate), including,
but not limited to, Losses resulting from injuries to IMGIS' Personnel and
Losses resulting from injuries caused by IMGIS' Personnel.

     11.2 PROCEDURE. Any AOL Indemnitee shall notify IMGIS promptly in writing
of an indemnifiable claim or cause of action under Section 11.1 above upon
receiving notice or being informed of the existence thereof; provided, however,
that failure to notify IMGIS of an indemnifiable claim or cause of action shall
not relieve IMGIS of its


                                       19
<PAGE>


                                                                    CONFIDENTIAL

obligation to provide indemnification hereunder, except to the extent that such
failure prejudices IMGIS' ability to defend or settle such claim or cause of
action. IMGIS shall assume, at its cost and expense, the sole defense of such
claim or cause of action through counsel selected by IMGIS and reasonably
acceptable to AOL, except that in the case of a conflict of interest between
IMGIS and AOL, IMGIS shall, at IMGIS' cost and expense, provide separate counsel
for AOL selected by AOL. IMGIS shall maintain control of such defense, including
any decision as to settlement; provided that, in the event that IMGIS does not
maintain control of such defense on a timely basis, then, without prejudice to
any other rights and remedies available to AOL under this Agreement, AOL may
take over such defense with counsel of its choosing, at IMGIS' cost and expense.
AOL may, at its option and expense, participate in IMGIS' defense, and if AOL so
participates, the Parties shall cooperate with one another in such defense.
IMGIS shall bear the total costs of any court award or any settlement of such
claim or cause of action approved by IMGIS and all other costs, fees and
expenses related to the resolution thereof (including reasonable attorneys'
fees, except for attorneys' fees for which AOL is responsible in the event that
AOL participates in IMGIS' defense of such claim or cause of action).

     11.3 ABATEMENT OF INFRINGEMENT. If IMGIS reasonably believes it necessary
to do so to minimize its liability under Section 11.1 above, IMGIS may, at its
expense, procure the right for AOL to continue using the Technology or any Work
Product, replace the Technology or any Work Product with a functionally
equivalent noninfringing item, or modify the Technology or any Work Product so
that it is functionally equivalent but noninfringing.


                                   ARTICLE 12
                             LIMITATION ON LIABILITY

     EXCEPT FOR A CLAIM OF INDEMNIFICATION PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 11 OR A BREACH OF
ANY OF THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.2 ABOVE, NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE
LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY HEREUNDER FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES.


                                   ARTICLE 13
                                 CONFIDENTIALITY

     13.1 CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATION. Each of AOL and IMGIS (the "Receiving
Party") shall keep, and shall cause their Affiliates to keep, strictly
confidential any information disclosed by the other Party (the "Disclosing
Party") or otherwise made available to the Receiving Party concerning the
Technology or either Party's performance of this Agreement or otherwise
concerning the business, operations, trade secrets or other proprietary
information of the Disclosing Party (whether in written media or otherwise)
("Confidential Information"), using the same degree of care that it uses to
protect its own


                                       20
<PAGE>

                                                                    CONFIDENTIAL

confidential or proprietary information of a like nature but in no event less
than a reasonable degree of care. "Confidential Information" shall not include
information: (a) which is or becomes generally available to the public other
than as a result of disclosure thereof by the Receiving Party; (b) which is
lawfully received by the Receiving Party on a nonconfidential basis from a Third
Party that is not itself under any obligation of confidentiality or
nondisclosure to the Disclosing Party or any other Person with respect to such
information; (c) which is independently developed by the Receiving Party; or (d)
which was in the Receiving Party's possession prior to receipt from the
Disclosing Party. Each Party shall treat any Technology or Work Product owned by
or assigned to the other Party as Confidential Information of such Party.

     13.2 NONDISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The Receiving Party shall
use Confidential Information solely for the purposes of this Agreement and shall
not disclose or disseminate any Confidential Information to any Person at any
time, except for disclosure to its Affiliates and to those of its own and its
Affiliates' directors, officers, employees, accountants, attorneys, advisers and
agents whose duties reasonably require them to have access to such Confidential
Information, provided that such directors, officers, employees, accountants,
attorneys, advisers and agents are bound to maintain the confidentiality of such
Confidential Information to the same extent as if they were Parties hereto.

     13.3 EXCEPTION. The foregoing confidentiality and nondisclosure obligations
shall not apply to Confidential Information: (a) incidentally retained in the
memory of Persons to whom the Receiving Party is permitted to disclose
Confidential Information, other than as the result of an intentional effort to
commit Confidential Information to memory to circumvent the provisions of this
Article 13; or (b) which is required to be publicly disclosed by law or by
regulation; provided, however, that, in such event, the Receiving Party provides
the Disclosing Party with prompt advance notice of such disclosure so that the
Disclosing Party has the opportunity if it so desires to seek a protective order
or other appropriate remedy.

     13.4 SURVIVAL. The confidentiality and nondisclosure obligations of this
Article 13 shall remain in effect for three years following the date hereof or
two years following the termination of this Agreement, whichever is greater,
except with respect to source code and related source code documentation, for
which the obligations of this Article 13 shall survive for so long as the source
code and documentation remain Confidential Information.

     13.5 SOURCE CODE PROTECTION. The Receiving Party shall protect Confidential
Information consisting of source code and related source code documentation from
unauthorized use and disclosure to the same extent that it protects its own
source code (but no less than to a reasonable degree).


                                       21

     13.6 OTHER BUSINESS ACTIVITIES.

          (a) The Disclosing Party agrees that the Receiving Party may currently
or in the future acquire information, either independently developed or legally
received from Third Parties, which may be similar to the Confidential
Information. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a representation
that the Receiving Party does not or shall not have such independently developed
or legally received information.

          (b) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a representation
or agreement to restrict reassignment of the Receiving Party's employees, or in
any manner to affect or limit either Party's present or future business
activities of any nature, including business activities which could be
competitive with the Disclosing Party.

          (c) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a representation
or agreement that the Receiving Party shall not develop or have developed for it
products, concepts, systems or techniques contemplated by or embodied in the
Confidential Information, provided that the Receiving Party does not violate any
of its obligations under this Agreement in connection with such development.


                                   ARTICLE 14
                              TERM AND TERMINATION

     14.1 TERM. This Agreement shall commence as of the date hereof and, unless
terminated in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.2 below, this
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without expiration.

     14.2 TERMINATION.

          14.2.1 TERMINATION RIGHTS OF AOL. AOL shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement in the event of the breach by IMGIS of, or the failure
of IMGIS to perform, any of its material obligations hereunder and the failure
to remedy such breach or nonperformance within 60 days following the receipt of
written notice of such breach or nonperformance from AOL. Such termination shall
be immediately effective upon the receipt by IMGIS of written notice of
termination from AOL.

          14.2.2 TERMINATION RIGHTS OF IMGIS. IMGIS shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement in the event of:

               (a)  The breach by AOL of, or the failure of AOL to perform, any
                    of its material obligations under this Agreement (except for
                    its obligations under Articles 3, 4, 5 and 6 above) and the
                    failure to remedy such breach or nonperformance within 60
                    days following the receipt of written notice of such breach
                    or nonperformance from IMGIS;

necessary or useful for the exercise of such rights. Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, IMGIS shall in no event be entitled to enjoin or seek to
enjoin any exercise by AOL or any such AOL Affiliate of the rights set forth in
this Section 14.3, and IMGIS hereby expressly waives any right to injunctive or
other equitable relief, whether based on statute, common law or otherwise,

execution of this Agreement and on a quarterly basis thereafter, AOL shall
engage in discussions with IMGIS concerning AOL's deployment of the Technology

Services that AOL intends to request from IMGIS hereunder. Within 45 days after
the Deployment Date, the Parties shall execute a more detailed development,
support and maintenance agreement with respect to IMGIS' obligations to provide
development, support and maintenance for the Technology, including, without
limitation, IMGIS' obligations for the delivery of Improvements and other
Technology, IMGIS' obligations to provide Development Services and Technical

trafficking, targeting or related services, excluding independent contractors
that do not spend the majority of their time providing services to such Party.

the event of the acquisition by a Third Party of more than fifty percent (50%)
of the voting power of IMGIS, the acquisition by a Third Party of all or
substantially all of the assets of IMGIS, or the consummation of a merger,
consolidation or similar corporate transaction of IMGIS with or into a Third
Party where the voting securities of IMGIS outstanding immediately prior to
consummation of such transaction are converted into cash or securities
possessing less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the surviving
entity. The obligations of the Parties under this Section 15.3 shall not survive
the termination of this Agreement.

     15.4 FAILURE TO ASSERT RIGHTS IN BANKRUPTCY. AOL's failure to assert its
rights to retain its benefits under this Agreement in accordance with 11 U.S.C.
Section 365(n)(1)(B) shall not be construed as a termination of this Agreement
by AOL under 11 U.S.C. Section 365(n)(1)(A).

     15.5 FURTHER ASSURANCES. Upon the request of either Party, the other Party
shall sign and deliver any assignments or other necessary documents and
otherwise assist the requesting Party to obtain, maintain, perfect or enforce
any of the requesting Party's rights hereunder.

     15.11 FORCE MAJEURE. If any circumstance beyond the reasonable control of
either Party occurs which delays or renders impossible the performance of that
Party's obligations under this Agreement on the dates herein provided, such
obligation shall be postponed for such time as such performance necessarily has

whole or in part, by either Party without the prior written consent of the other
Party, except that: (a) AOL may assign any of its rights or obligations

the rights and obligations of either Party under this Agreement may be assigned
without the other Party's consent to a Third Party acquiring all or
substantially all of the assets of the assigning Party or to the surviving
entity upon the consummation of any merger, consolidation or similar corporate
transaction of the assigning Party with or into a Third Party. Any attempted
assignment by either Party without the consent of the other Party in any
circumstances other than those described in the immediately preceding sentence
shall be null and void. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon each of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and
permitted assigns.

     15.13 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. The terms and conditions herein contained
constitute the entire agreement between the Parties relating to the subject
matter of this Agreement and shall supersede all previous communications between
the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, except for the
Letter Agreement between the Parties dated as of April 14, 1998 and the
Confidential Non-Disclosure Agreement between the Parties dated as of April 15,
1998, each of which shall survive according to their terms. Neither Party has

the written agreement of the Parties through their duly authorized officers or
representatives, specifically referring to this Agreement.

     15.16 SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is
held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in a final, unappealable order or
judgment (each such provision, an "invalid provision"), then such provision
shall be severed from this Agreement and shall be inoperative, and the Parties
promptly shall negotiate in good faith a lawful, valid and enforceable provision
that is as similar to the invalid provision as may be possible, while the
remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain binding on the Parties
hereto.

          15.17 HEADINGS. The descriptive headings of the several articles and
sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not
constitute a part of this Agreement.

          15.18 NO WAIVER OF RIGHTS. No failure or delay on the part of either
Party in the exercise of any power or right hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right or power hereunder shall
operate as a waiver of such right or of any other right or power. The waiver by
either Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or
be construed as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach hereunder.

          15.19 REMEDIES CUMULATIVE; SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. All rights and
remedies granted to either Party under this Agreement are cumulative and in
addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights or remedies otherwise
available to such Party at law or in equity. The Parties agree that any breach
by either Party of, or failure of either Party to perform, any obligation under
this Agreement shall constitute immediate and irreparable damage to the other
Party which cannot be fully and adequately compensated in money damages and
that, in the event of such breach or failure, the other Party shall be entitled
to injunctive relief and specific performance in addition to any other remedies
to which it may be entitled at law or in equity.

          15.20 CONFIDENTIALITY OF AGREEMENT. Each Party shall maintain the
confidentiality of this Agreement and all provisions of this Agreement and,
without the prior consent of the other Party, neither Party shall make any press
release or other public announcement of or otherwise disclose this Agreement or
any of its provisions to any Third Party (a) other than to its Affiliates and to
its own and its Affiliates' directors, officers, employees, attorneys and
accountants, and to the lead underwriter engaged by IMGIS in connection with any
offering of securities of IMGIS, whose duties reasonably require familiarity
with this Agreement, provided that such Persons (including any such lead
underwriter) are bound to maintain the confidentiality of this Agreement, and
(b) except for such disclosure as may be required by applicable law or
regulation, in which case the disclosing Party shall provide the other Party
with prompt advance notice of such disclosure so that the other Party has the
opportunity if it so desires to seek a protective order or other appropriate
remedy; provided that, in connection with any offering of securities of IMGIS,
IMGIS shall provide in advance to AOL for review the form and content of any
disclosure of this Agreement or any of its provisions that may be required by
applicable law or regulation and, to the extent consistent with its disclosure
obligations under applicable law, include


                                       29
<PAGE>

                                                                    CONFIDENTIAL

such modifications to such disclosure as may be reasonably requested by AOL
(except that IMGIS may file this Agreement as an exhibit to its registration
statement if it would constitute a "material agreement" under applicable law or
regulation and IMGIS shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain
confidential treatment of the portions of this Agreement that meet the SEC
qualifications for confidential treatment if so requested by AOL). The
confidentiality obligations of this Section 15.20 would apply, inter alia, to
any disclosure by IMGIS of this Agreement or of any provisions of this Agreement
to any customer or potential customer of IMGIS and any such disclosure would
constitute a breach of this Section 15.20. The Parties agree that any breach of
the provisions of this Section 15.20 by either Party, including, without
limitation, by any directors, officers or employees of such Party, would
constitute a breach by such Party of a material obligation hereunder for which
the other Party shall have the right, notwithstanding the provisions of Section
14.2 above, to immediately terminate this Agreement without allowance of any
period to remedy such breach, such termination to be immediately effective upon
the receipt by the breaching Party of written notice of termination from the
nonbreaching Party.

     15.21 USAGE. Wherever any provision of this Agreement uses the term
"including" (or "includes"), such term shall be deemed to mean "including
without limitation" and "including but not limited to" (or "includes without
limitation" and "includes but is not limited to") regardless of whether the
words "without limitation" or "but not limited to" actually follow the term
"including" (or "includes").

             IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have caused this Agreement
to executed by their duly authorized officers as of the date first above
written.
