Dear Sirs,

                Re: Second Amendment to Share Purchase Agreement

            We refer to the Share Purchase Agreement, dated as of January 3,
2003 (as amended as of January 6, 2003), entered into by and among SINA.COM,
MeMeStar Limited (the "Company") and the Shareholders of the Company identified
therein (the "Share Purchase Agreement").

            a. Section 1.02 of the Share Purchase Agreement shall be amended to
remove and delete the reference to the definition of "for cause".

            b. Section 2.05(a) of the Share Purchase Agreement shall be amended
to read as follows:

      "(a) Subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 2.06 below, the Purchaser
      shall pay to each Management Shareholder 25% of the Deferred Cash
      Consideration set forth opposite such Management Shareholder's name on
      Exhibit C, on each of the following dates (each a "Payment Date"):

            (A)       135 calendar days after the Closing Date;
            (B)       270 calendar days after the Closing Date;
            (C)       405 calendar days after the Closing Date; and
            (D)       540 calendar days after the Closing Date;

      provided, however, that if the Management Shareholder has breached its
      covenants set forth in Section 6.09 hereof, prior to the last Payment
      Date, then such Management Shareholder shall not receive the Deferred Cash
      Consideration which would otherwise be payable on the last Payment Date."

            c. Section 2.05(c) of the Share Purchase Agreement shall be amended
to read as follows:

      "(c) On the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall
      deliver a share certificate to each Management Shareholder representing
      the portion of the Deferred Share Consideration set forth opposite such
      Management Shareholder's name on Exhibit C."

amendments to the Share Purchase Agreement by signing in the designated place
