                      AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

                  This AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the "Agreement") is
made and entered into as of April 29, 1999, by and between Uproar Ltd., a
Bermuda corporation ("Acquiror") and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Uproar
Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Acquisition Sub"), and PrizePoint
Entertainment Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Target").

                                    RECITALS

                  A. The Boards of Directors of Target, Acquiror and Acquisition
Sub have determined it is in the best interests of their respective companies
and the shareholders of their respective companies that Target and Acquisition
Sub combine into a single company through the statutory merger of Acquisition
Sub with and into Target (the "Merger") and, in furtherance thereof, have
approved the Merger.

                  B. Pursuant to the Merger, among other things, each
outstanding share of capital stock of Target ("Target Capital Stock") shall be
converted into shares of common stock of Acquiror ("Acquiror Common Stock"), at
the rate set forth herein.

                  C. Target, Acquiror and Acquisition Sub desire to make certain
representations, warranties, covenants and other agreements in connection with
the Merger.

                  D. The parties intend, by executing this Agreement, to adopt a
plan of reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and to cause the Merger to qualify as a
reorganization under the provisions of Sections 368(a) of the Code.

                  E. The parties intend that for financial accounting purposes
the Merger shall be accounted for as a pooling-of-interests.

                  F. As an inducement to Acquiror to enter into this Agreement,
certain of the shareholders of Target have, concurrently with the date hereof,
entered into an agreement to vote the shares of Target's Capital Stock owned by
such person to approve the Merger and against any competing proposals.

                  NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and
representations set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration,
the parties agree as follows:

                                   ARTICLE I

                                   THE MERGER

                  1.1 The Merger. At the Effective Time (as defined in Section
1.2) and subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the
Certificate of Merger (the "Certificate of Merger") and the applicable
provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("Delaware Law"), Acquisition

<PAGE>

Sub shall be merged with and into Target, the separate corporate existence of
Acquisition Sub shall cease and Target shall continue as the surviving
corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Acquiror. Target as the surviving
corporation after the Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the
"Surviving Corporation."

                  1.2 Closing; Effective Time. The closing of the transactions
contemplated hereby (the "Closing") shall take place as soon as practicable
after the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions set forth in Article
VI hereof or at such other time as the parties hereto agree (the "Closing
Date"). The Closing shall take place at the offices of Brobeck, Phleger &
Harrison LLP, 1633 Broadway, 47th Floor, New York 10019, or at such other
location as the parties hereto agree. In connection with the Closing, the
parties hereto shall cause the Merger to be consummated by filing the
Certificate of Merger, together with the required officers' certificates, with
the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, in accordance with the relevant
provisions of Delaware Law (the time of such filing being the "Effective Time").

                  1.3 Effect of the Merger. At the Effective Time, the effect of
the Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the Certificate of Merger and
the applicable provisions of Delaware Law. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all the property,
rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Target and Acquisition Sub shall
vest in the Surviving Corporation, and all debts, liabilities and duties of
Target and Acquisition Sub shall become the debts, liabilities and duties of the
Surviving Corporation, and the Surviving Corporation shall become a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Acquiror.

                  1.4 Articles of Incorporation; Bylaws.

                      (a) At the Effective Time, the Certificate of
Incorporation of Acquisition Sub, as in effect immediately prior to the
Effective Time, shall be the Articles of Incorporation of the Surviving
Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by Delaware Law and such
Certificate of Incorporation.

                      (b) The Bylaws of Acquisition Sub, as in effect
immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the Bylaws of the Surviving
Corporation until thereafter amended as provided by Delaware Law and such
Bylaws.

                  1.5 Directors and Officers. At the Effective Time, the
directors of Acquisition Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective
Time, shall be the directors of the Surviving Corporation, until their
respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified. The officers
of Target, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be the
officers of the Surviving Corporation, until their respective successors are
duly elected or appointed and qualified.

                  1.6 Effect on Capital Stock. By virtue of the Merger and
without any further action on the part of Acquiror, Acquisition Sub, Target or
the holders of any of Target's securities:

                      (a) Conversion of Target Capital Stock. Subject to the
terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Certificate of Merger as of the

                                       2

<PAGE>

Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the
part of the holder of any shares of Target Capital Stock:

                          (i) At the Effective Time, each share of Target Common
Stock and each share of Target Preferred Stock issued and outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Target Common
Stock, if any, held by persons who have not voted such shares for approval of
the Merger and with respect to which such persons shall have perfected
dissenters' rights in accordance with Delaware Law ("Dissenting Shares")) shall
be converted into and exchanged for the right to receive .0262718445 shares of
Acquiror Common Stock (the "Exchange Ratio"); provided, that 10% of the Acquiror
Common Stock otherwise deliverable to each such holder shall be held in escrow
as provided in Section 1.7(c). Each share of Target Common Stock or Preferred
Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time that is
restricted or not fully vested shall upon such conversion and exchange have the
same restrictions or vesting arrangements applicable to such shares prior to the
conversion, in addition to those restrictions imposed pursuant to Section 1.10
hereof.

                          (ii) At the Effective Time, each Target Option granted
and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be assumed by
Acquiror in accordance with Section 5.11.

                      (b) Cancellation of Target Capital Stock Owned by Acquiror
or Target. At the Effective Time, all shares of Target Capital Stock that are
owned by Target as treasury stock, and each share of Target Capital Stock owned
by Acquiror, Acquisition Sub or any other direct or indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of Acquiror or of Target immediately prior to the Effective Time
shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof.

                      (c) Acquisition Sub Stock. At the Effective Time, all
issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Acquisition Sub, by virtue of
the Merger and without any further action on the part of any holder thereof,
shall be converted into, and exchanged for, one share of common stock, par value
$0.05 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

                      (d) Target Stock Option Plans. At the Effective Time, the
Target 1998 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the "Target Stock Option Plan") and
all options to purchase Target Common Stock then outstanding under the Target
Stock Option Plan shall be assumed by Acquiror in accordance with Section 5.11.

                      (e) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Exchange Ratio
shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any stock split, reverse split,
stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible
into Acquiror Common Stock or Target Capital Stock), reorganization,
recapitalization or other like change with respect to Acquiror Common Stock or
Target Capital Stock occurring after the date hereof and prior to the Effective
Time.

                      (f) Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of Acquiror
Common Stock will be issued, but in lieu thereof each holder of shares of Target
Capital Stock who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of
Acquiror Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Acquiror
Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall receive from Acquiror an

                                       3

<PAGE>

amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) equal to the product of (i)
such fraction, multiplied by (ii) the Acquiror Stock Price.

                      (g) Dissenters' Rights. Any Dissenting Shares shall not be
converted into, or be exchangeable for, the right to receive Acquiror Common
Stock but shall instead be converted into the right to receive such
consideration as may be determined to be due with respect to such Dissenting
Shares pursuant to Delaware Law unless and until such holder shall have failed
to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost his right of appraisal
and payment, as the case may be. Target shall give Acquiror prompt notice of any
Dissenting Shares (and shall also give Acquiror prompt notice of any withdrawals
of such demands for appraisal rights) and Acquiror shall have the right to
direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. Neither
Target nor the Surviving Corporation shall, except with the prior written
consent of Acquiror, voluntarily make any payments with respect to, or settle or
offer to settle, any such demand for appraisal rights. If, after the Effective
Time, any Dissenting Shares shall lose their status as Dissenting Shares,
Acquiror shall issue and deliver, upon surrender by such shareholder of
certificate or certificates representing shares of Target Capital Stock, the
number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock to which such shareholder would
otherwise be entitled under this Section 1.6 and the Certificate of Merger less
the number of shares allocable to such shareholder that have been deposited in
the Escrow Fund (as defined below) in respect of such shares of Acquiror Common
Stock pursuant to Section 1.7(c) and Article VIII hereof, without any interest
thereon.

                  1.7 Surrender of Certificates.

                      (a) Exchange Agent. Acquiror's transfer agent shall act as
exchange agent (the "Exchange Agent") in the Merger.

                      (b) Acquiror to Provide Common Stock and Cash. Promptly
after the Effective Time, Acquiror shall make available to the Exchange Agent
for exchange in accordance with this Article I, through such reasonable
procedures as Acquiror may adopt, (i) the shares of Acquiror Common Stock
issuable pursuant to Section 1.6(a) in exchange for shares of Target Capital
Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time less the number of
shares of Acquiror Common Stock to be deposited into an escrow fund (the "Escrow
Fund") pursuant to the requirements of Article VIII and (ii) cash in an amount
sufficient to permit payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to
Section 1.6(f).

                      (c) Exchange Procedures.

                          (i) Promptly after the Effective Time, the Surviving
Corporation shall cause to be mailed to each holder of record of a certificate
or certificates (the "Certificates") which immediately prior to the Effective
Time represented outstanding shares of Target Capital Stock, whose shares were
converted into the right to receive shares of Acquiror Common Stock (and cash in
lieu of fractional shares) pursuant to Section 1.6, (i) a letter of transmittal
(which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title
to the Certificates shall pass, only upon receipt of the Certificates by the
Exchange Agent and receipt of an executed Shareholder Representation Agreement

                                       4

<PAGE>

by Acquiror, and shall be in such form and have such other provisions as
Acquiror may reasonably specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the
surrender of the Certificates in exchange for certificates (or book entries in
the case of shares that have not yet vested) representing shares of Acquiror
Common Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares). Upon surrender of a
Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or
agents as may be appointed by Acquiror, together with such letter of
transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the
instructions thereto, and upon receipt by Acquiror of an executed Shareholder
Representation Agreement, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to
receive in exchange therefor a certificate, with appropriate legends, (or a book
entry in the case of shares that have not yet vested in full) representing the
number of whole shares of Acquiror Common Stock less the number of shares of
Acquiror Common Stock to be deposited in the Escrow Fund on such holder's behalf
pursuant to Article VIII hereof and payment in lieu of fractional shares which
such holder has the right to receive pursuant to Section 1.6, and the
Certificate so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. Until so surrendered,
each outstanding Certificate that, prior to the Effective Time, represented
shares of Target Capital Stock will be deemed from and after the Effective Time,
for all corporate purposes, other than the payment of dividends, to evidence the
ownership of the number of full shares of Acquiror Common Stock into which such
shares of Target Capital Stock shall have been so converted and the right to
receive an amount in cash in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares in
accordance with Section 1.6. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time,
and subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII hereof,
Acquiror shall cause to be distributed to the Escrow Agent (as defined in
Article VIII hereof) a certificate or certificates representing ten percent
(10%) of the shares of Acquiror Common Stock issued in the Merger (the "Escrow
Shares") which shall be registered in the name of the Escrow Agent as nominee
for the holders of Certificates cancelled pursuant to this Section 1.7. The
Escrow Shares shall be, to the extent possible, vested shares not subject to any
repurchase rights, shall be beneficially owned by such holders and shall be held
in escrow and shall be available to compensate Acquiror for certain damages as
provided in Article VIII. To the extent not used for such purposes, such shares
shall be released, all as provided in Article VIII hereof.

                          (ii) Any amounts of Acquiror Common Stock (and cash in
lieu of fractional shares) delivered or made available to the Exchange Agent
pursuant to this Section 1.7 and not exchanged for Target Capital Stock within
six months after the Effective Time pursuant to this Section 1.7 shall be
returned by the Exchange Agent to Acquiror, which thereafter shall act as
Exchange Agent subject to the rights of holders of unsurrendered Certificates
under this Article I. Thereafter such holders shall be entitled to look to the
Surviving Corporation (subject to abandoned property, escheat and other similar
laws) only as general creditors thereof with respect to any Acquiror Common
Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares) that may be payable upon due
surrender of the Target Capital Stock held by them. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, neither the Surviving Corporation nor the Exchange Agent shall be
liable to any holder of a share of Target Capital Stock for any Acquiror Common
Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares) delivered in respect of such share
to a public official pursuant to any abandoned property, escheat or other
similar law.

                      (d) Distributions With Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No
dividends or other distributions with respect to Acquiror Common Stock with a
record date after the Effective Time will be paid to the holder of any
unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of Acquiror Common Stock
represented thereby until the holder of record of such Certificate shall

                                       5

<PAGE>

surrender such Certificate. Subject to applicable law, following surrender of
any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the record holder of the
certificates representing whole shares of Acquiror Common Stock issued in
exchange therefor, without interest, at the time of such surrender, the amount
of any such dividends or other distributions with a record date after the
Effective Time theretofore payable (but for the provisions of this Section
1.7(d)) with respect to such shares of Acquiror Common Stock.

                      (e) Transfers of Ownership. If any certificate for shares
of Acquiror Common Stock is to be issued in a name other than that in which the
Certificate surrendered in exchange therefor is registered, it will be a
condition of the issuance thereof that the Certificate so surrendered will be
properly endorsed and otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the person
requesting such exchange will have paid to Acquiror or any agent designated by
it any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of a
certificate for shares of Acquiror Common Stock in any name other than that of
the registered holder of the Certificate surrendered, or established to the
satisfaction of Acquiror or any agent designated by it that such tax has been
paid or is not payable.

                      (f) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in this Section 1.7, none of the Exchange Agent, the Surviving Corporation or
any party hereto shall be liable to any person for any amount properly paid to a
public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or
similar law.

                      (g) Dissenting Shares. The provisions of this Section 1.7
shall also apply to Dissenting Shares that lose their status as such, except
that the obligations of Acquiror under this Section 1.7 shall commence on the
date of loss of such status and the holder of such shares shall be entitled to
receive in exchange for such shares the number of shares of Acquiror Common
Stock and cash in lieu of any fractional shares to which such holder is entitled
pursuant to Section 1.6 hereof.

                  1.8 No Further Ownership Rights in Target Capital Stock. All
shares of Acquiror Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of shares
of Target Capital Stock in accordance with the terms hereof (including any cash
paid in lieu of fractional shares) shall be deemed to have been issued in full
satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such shares of Target Capital Stock,
and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the records of the
Surviving Corporation of shares of Target Capital Stock which were outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time,
Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation for any reason, they
shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article I.

                  1.9 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any
Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall
issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the
making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such shares of
Acquiror Common Stock (and cash in lieu of fractional shares) as may be required
pursuant to Section 1.6; provided, however, that Acquiror may, in its discretion
and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such
lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to indemnify Acquiror against any claim
that may be made against Acquiror, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange
Agent with respect to the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or
destroyed.

                  1.10 Resale Restrictions. All shares of Acquiror Common Stock
issued pursuant to the Merger have been issued without registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the securities
laws of the various states of the United States, and may not be re-offered or
resold other than in uniformity with the registration requirements of such acts
or pursuant to an exemption therefrom. In addition, all shares of Acquiror
Common Stock issued pursuant to the Merger shall be ineligible for resale,
either in the Easdaq market or otherwise, for a period of 180 days following the
Closing, and the Certificates issued by Acquiror with respect to such shares
shall be legended to that effect and shall include such additional legends as
necessary to comply with applicable U.S. federal securities laws, Blue Sky laws
and such other restrictions as shall be set forth in the Shareholder
Representation Agreements. Such restrictions shall not prohibit transfers by
operation of law, or bona fide gifts to family members of a shareholder, or
transfers among affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended) of a shareholder, or to trusts established for the benefit of
such family members, so long as the transferees remain subject to the
restrictions set forth herein but shall otherwise prohibit transfer unless such
transfer complies with applicable U.S. federal securities and Blue Sky laws.

                  1.11 Tax and Accounting Consequences. It is intended by the
parties hereto that the Merger shall (a) constitute a reorganization within the
meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and (b) qualify for accounting treatment
as a pooling of interests.

                  1.12 Exemption from Registration. The shares of Acquiror
Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Merger will be issued in a
transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act, by reason of
Section 4(2) thereof, and from any applicable Blue Sky laws.

                  1.13 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any
time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to
carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation
with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights,
privileges, powers and franchises of Target, the officers and directors of
Target are fully authorized in the name of their corporation or otherwise to
take, and will use good faith efforts to take, all such lawful and necessary
action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

                                   ARTICLE II

                    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF TARGET

                  In this Agreement, any reference to any event, change,

entities means any material event, change, condition or effect related to the
financial condition, properties, assets (including intangible assets),
liabilities, business, operations or results of operations of such entity or
group of entities taken as a whole. In this Agreement, any reference to a

condition, properties, assets, liabilities, business, operations or results of
operations of such entity and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

                                       7

<PAGE>

                  In this Agreement, any reference to a party's "knowledge"
means actual knowledge of such party's officers, directors and other managers
provided that such persons shall have made due and diligent inquiry of those
employees of such party whom such officers, directors and managers reasonably
believe would have actual knowledge of the matters represented.

                  Except as disclosed in a document of even date herewith and
delivered by Target to Acquiror prior to the execution and delivery of this
Agreement and referring to the representations and warranties in this Agreement
(the "Target Disclosure Schedule"), Target represents and warrants to Acquiror
as follows:

                  2.1 Organization, Standing and Power. Target is a corporation
duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of organization. Target has the corporate power to own its
properties and to carry on its business as now being conducted and as currently
proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified to do business and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to be so qualified and in
good standing would have a Material Adverse Effect on Target. Target has
delivered a true and correct copy of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws
or other charter documents, as applicable, of Target as amended to date, to
Acquiror. Target is not in violation of any of the provisions of its Certificate
of Incorporation or Bylaws or equivalent organizational documents. Target has no
subsidiaries or equity investments in any entity. Other than with respect to the
securities set forth on Schedule 2.2, there are no outstanding subscriptions,
options, warrants, puts, calls, rights, exchangeable or convertible securities
or other commitments or agreements of any character relating to the issued or
unissued capital stock or other securities, or otherwise obligating Target to
issue, transfer, sell, purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any such
securities. Target does not directly or indirectly own any equity or similar
interest in, or any interest convertible or exchangeable or exercisable for, any
equity or similar interest in, any corporation, partnership, joint venture or
other business association or entity.

                  2.2 Capital Structure. The authorized capital stock of Target
consists of 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01, and 5,000,000
shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01, of which there were issued and
outstanding as of the close of business on the date hereof, 1,186,667 shares of
Common Stock, 645,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A
Preferred Stock"), and 453,795 shares of Series B Preferred Stock (the "Series B
Preferred Stock" and, collectively with the Series A Preferred Stock, the
"Preferred Stock") . There are no other outstanding shares of capital stock or
voting securities and no outstanding commitments to issue any shares of capital
stock or voting securities, other than pursuant to the exercise of options
outstanding as of such date under the Target Stock Option Plan and warrants
outstanding as of such date as set forth in Schedule 2.2. Attached to or as set
forth in Schedule 2.2 to the Target Disclosure Schedule is a true and correct
list of Target's shareholders and any persons with rights to acquire Target
securities, which list will be promptly updated from time to time prior to
Closing to reflect any changes thereto (which changes are in any event subject
to the restrictions imposed under Section 4.2 below). All outstanding shares of
Target Capital Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable and are free of any liens or encumbrances other than any liens or
encumbrances created by or imposed upon the holders thereof, and, except as set
forth on Schedule 2.2, are not subject to preemptive rights or rights of first
refusal created by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of Target
or any agreement to which Target is a party or by which it is bound. Target has
reserved (i) sufficient shares of Common Stock for issuance upon conversion of
the Preferred, and (ii) 150,000 shares of Common Stock for issuance to employees

                                       8

<PAGE>

and consultants pursuant to the Target Stock Option Plan, of which no shares
have been issued pursuant to option exercises or direct stock purchases, 117,500
shares are subject to outstanding, unexercised options, and 32,500 shares are
available for issuance thereunder and (iii) 41,254 shares of Series B Preferred
Stock for issuance to upon exercise of the outstanding warrants to purchase
shares of Series B Preferred Stock as set forth on Schedule 2.2 (the
"Warrants"). Except for (i) the rights created pursuant to this Agreement and
(ii) Target's right to repurchase any unvested shares under the Target Stock
Option Plan and (iii) the Warrants, there are no other options, warrants, calls,
rights, commitments or agreements of any character to which Target is a party or
by which it is bound obligating Target to issue, deliver, sell, repurchase or
redeem, or cause to be issued, delivered, sold, repurchased or redeemed, any
shares of capital stock of Target or obligating Target to grant, extend,
accelerate the vesting of, change the price of, or otherwise amend or enter into
any such option, warrant, call, right, commitment or agreement. Except for the
agreements contemplated by this Agreement and the agreements set forth on
Schedule 2.2, there are no contracts, commitments or agreements relating to
voting, purchase or sale of Target's capital stock (i) between or among Target
and any of its securityholders and (ii) to the Target's knowledge, between or
among any of Target's securityholders. The terms of the Target Stock Option Plan
and the applicable stock option agreements do not prohibit the assumption or
substitution of options to purchase Acquiror Common Stock as provided in this
Agreement, nor is there any requirement for the consent or approval of the
holders of such securities, the Target Shareholders, or otherwise to such
assumption or substitution. True and complete copies of all agreements and
instruments relating to or issued under the Target Stock Option Plan have been
provided to Acquiror and such agreements and instruments have not been amended,
modified or supplemented other than has been provided to Acquiror, and there are
no agreements to amend, modify or supplement such agreements or instruments in
any case from the form provided to Acquiror. All outstanding shares of Common
Stock and Preferred Stock were issued in compliance with all applicable federal
and state securities laws.

                  2.3 Authority. Target has all requisite corporate power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized
by all necessary corporate action on the part of Target, subject only to the
approval of the Merger by Target's shareholders as contemplated by Section
6.1(a). This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Target and
constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Target enforceable against
Target in accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,
fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general
applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equity
principles. Except as set forth in Schedule 2.3, the execution and delivery of
this Agreement by Target does not, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of, or
default under (with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), or give rise
to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation
(including, but not limited to, any increase in payments due to any entity or
person) or loss of any benefit under (i) any provision of the Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws of Target, as amended, or (ii) any material mortgage,
indenture, lease, contract or other material agreement or instrument, permit,
concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, decree, statute, law,
ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Target or any of its properties or
assets. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration,
declaration or filing with, any court, administrative agency or commission or

                                       9

other governmental authority or instrumentality ("Governmental Entity") is

delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby, except for (i) the filing of the Certificate of Merger, together with
the required officers' certificates, as provided in Section 1.2; (ii) such
consents, approvals, orders, authorizations, registrations, declarations and
filings as may be required under applicable state securities laws and the
securities laws of any foreign country; (iii) such filings as may be required
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended
("HSR"); and (iv) such other consents, authorizations, filings, approvals and
registrations which, if not obtained or made, would not have a Material Adverse
Effect on Target and would not prevent, or materially alter or delay any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

                  2.4 Financial Statements. Target has delivered to Acquiror its
audited financial statements (including balance sheets and the related
statements of income, stockholders' equity and changes in financial position)
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1998 certified by Arthur Andersen LLP,
certified public accountants, and its unaudited financial statements (balance

records of Target and have been prepared in accordance with United States
generally accepted accounting principles ( "GAAP") (except that the unaudited

throughout the periods indicated and with each other. The Financial Statements
fairly present the financial condition and operating results of Target as of the
dates, and for the periods, indicated therein, subject, the case of interim
statements, to normal year-end audit adjustments. Target maintains and will
continue to maintain an adequate system of internal controls established and
administered in accordance with GAAP.

                  2.5 Absence of Certain Changes. Since December 31, 1998, (the
"Target Balance Sheet Date"), Target has conducted its business in the ordinary
course consistent with past practice and there has not occurred: (i) any change,
event or condition (whether or not covered by insurance) that has resulted in,
or might reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect to
Target; (ii) any acquisition, sale or transfer of any material asset of Target;
(iii) any change in accounting methods or practices (including any change in
depreciation or amortization policies or rates) by Target or any revaluation by

a dividend or other distribution with respect to the shares of Target, or any
direct or indirect redemption, purchase or other acquisition by Target of any of
its shares of capital stock; (v) any Material Contract entered into by Target,
or any material amendment or termination of, or default under, any Material
Contract to which Target is a party or by which it is bound; (vi) any amendment
or change to the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of Target; (vii) any
increase in or modification of the compensation or benefits payable or to become
payable by Target to any of its directors or employees, except in accordance
with agreements or course of practice entered into prior to December 31, 1998,
(viii) except as set forth in the Target Disclosure Schedule, any issuance of
any stock, notes, bonds or other securities other than pursuant to the exercise
of any previously granted Option to purchase stock or conversion of outstanding
securities; (ix) any mortgage, pledge or suffering to exist any lien or

                                       10

encumbrance or charge on any material assets or properties, tangible or
intangible, except for liens for taxes not yet delinquent and such other liens,
encumbrances or charges which would not, individually or in the aggregate, have
a Material Adverse Effect; (x) any waiver of any rights of material value or
cancellation of any material debts or claims; (xi) incurred any material
obligation or liability (absolute or contingent) except current liabilities and
obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past
practice; (xii) except as set forth in Schedule 2.5, entered into any employment
agreement or adopted, or amended in any material respect, any collective
bargaining agreement or employee benefit plan; or (xiii) any negotiation or
agreement by Target to do any of the things described in the preceding clauses
(i) through (xii) (other than negotiations with Acquiror and its representatives
regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement).

                  2.6 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities. Target has no material
obligations or liabilities of any nature (matured or unmatured, fixed or
contingent, whether due or to become due) other than (i) those set forth or
adequately provided for in the Balance Sheet included in the Financial
Statements as of March 31, 1999 (the "Target Balance Sheet"), (ii) those
incurred in the ordinary course of business since March 31, 1999 and not
required to be set forth in the Target Balance Sheet under GAAP, (iii) those
incurred in connection with the execution of this Agreement, and (iv) those set
forth on Schedule 2.6.

                  2.7 Litigation. Except as set forth on Schedule 2.7, there is
no private or governmental action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or
investigation pending before any agency, court or tribunal, foreign or domestic,
or, to the knowledge of Target, threatened against Target or any of its
properties or any of its officers or directors (in their capacities as such).
There is no judgment, decree or order against Target, or, to the knowledge of
Target, any of its directors or officers (in their capacities as such), that
could prevent, enjoin, or materially alter or delay any of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement, or that could reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect on Target. The Target Disclosure Schedule also lists all
litigation that Target has pending against other parties.

                  2.8 Restrictions on Business Activities. There is no
agreement, judgment, injunction, order or decree binding upon Target, or
currently pending, threatened or under negotiation, which has or could
reasonably be expected to have the effect of prohibiting or impairing any
current or future business practice of Target, any acquisition of property by
Target or the conduct of business by Target as currently conducted or as
proposed to be conducted by Target.

                  2.9 Governmental Authorization. Target has obtained each
federal, state, county, local or foreign governmental consent, license, permit,
grant, or other authorization of a Governmental Entity (i) pursuant to which
Target currently operates or holds any interest in any of its properties or (ii)
that is required for the operation of Target's business or the holding of any
such interest ((i) and (ii) herein collectively called "Target Authorizations"),
and all of such Target Authorizations are in full force and effect, except where
the failure to obtain or have any such Target Authorizations could not
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Target.

                  2.10 Title to Property. Schedule 2.10 identifies each parcel
of real property leased by Target (the "Leased Property"). Target does not own
any interest in real property. Target has good, valid and subsisting leasehold
title to the Leased Property and good and valid title to the personal property,
tangible and intangible, reflected in the Target Balance Sheet or acquired after
the Target Balance Sheet Date (except properties, interests in properties and
assets sold or otherwise disposed of since the Target Balance Sheet Date in the
ordinary course of business), or with respect to leased or licensed properties

clear of all mortgages, liens, pledges, charges or encumbrances of any kind or
character, except (i) the lien of current taxes not yet due and payable, (ii)
such imperfections of title, liens and easements as do not and will not
materially detract from or interfere with the use of the properties subject
thereto or affected thereby, or otherwise materially impair business operations
involving such properties and (iii) liens securing debt which is reflected on
the Target Balance Sheet. Such assets constitute all of the assets and
properties, tangible and intangible, reasonably necessary to conduct Target's
business substantially as presently conducted. The plants, property and
equipment of Target that are used in the operations of its businesses are in
good operating condition and repair, subject to normal wear and tear. All
assets, tangible and intangible used in the operations of Target are reflected
in the Target Balance Sheet to the extent generally accepted accounting
principles require the same to be reflected.

                  2.11 Intellectual Property.

                       (a) Target owns, or is licensed or otherwise possesses
legally enforceable rights to use all patents, trademarks, trade names, domain

form to any party or (ii) entered into any exclusive agreements relating to its
Intellectual Property with any party (except with regard to any graphical user
interface).

                       (b) Schedule 2.11 lists (i) all patents and patent
applications and all registered trademarks (and trademarks for which an
application has been filed), trade names, domain names, and service marks,
registered copyrights, included in the Target Intellectual Property, including
the jurisdictions in which each such Intellectual Property right has been issued
or registered or in which any application for such issuance and registration has
been filed, (ii) all licenses, sublicenses and other agreements as to which
Target is a party and pursuant to which any person is authorized to use any
Intellectual Property (other than licenses to users of the prizepoint.com web
site pursuant to the web site's terms and conditions), and (iii) except as set
forth in Schedule 2.11, all licenses, sublicenses and other agreements as to

<PAGE>

                       (c) To Target's knowledge, there is no unauthorized use,
disclosure, infringement or misappropriation of any Target Intellectual
Property, or any Intellectual Property right of any third party to the extent
licensed by or through Target, by any third party, including any employee or
former employee of Target. Target has not entered into any agreement to
indemnify any other person against any charge of infringement of any
Intellectual Property, other than indemnification provisions contained in
purchase orders or license agreements arising in the ordinary course of
business.

                       (d) Except as set forth on Schedule 2.11, Target is not,
nor will it be as a result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or
the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, in breach of any
license, sublicense or other agreement relating to the Target Intellectual
Property or Third Party Intellectual Property Rights.

                       (e) All patents, registered trademarks, registered
service marks and registered copyrights held by Target are valid and subsisting.
Target (i) has not been sued in any suit, action or proceeding which involves a
claim of infringement of any patents, trademarks, service marks, copyrights or
violation of any trade secret or other proprietary right of any third party;
(ii) has no knowledge that the manufacturing, marketing, licensing or sale of
its products infringes any patent, trademark, service mark, copyright, trade
secret or other proprietary right of any third party and (iii) has not brought

breach of any license or agreement involving Target Intellectual Property
against any third party.

                       (f) Target has secured valid written assignments from all
consultants and employees who contributed to the creation or development of
Target Intellectual Property of the rights to such contributions that Target
does not already own by operation of law.

                       (g) Target has taken all reasonable steps to protect and
preserve the confidentiality of all Target Intellectual Property not otherwise
protected by patents, patent applications or copyright ("Confidential
Information"). All use, disclosure or appropriation of Confidential Information
owned by Target by or to a third party (apart from counsel or others bound by
law to hold such information confidential) has been pursuant to the terms of a
written agreement between Target and such third party. All use, disclosure or
appropriation of Confidential Information not owned by Target has been pursuant
to the terms of a written agreement between Target and the owner of such
Confidential Information, or is otherwise lawful.

                  2.13 Taxes.

                       (a) Target and any consolidated, combined, unitary or
aggregate group for Tax (as defined below) purposes of which Target is or has
been a member, have properly completed and timely filed all Tax Returns required
to be filed by them and have paid all Taxes shown thereon to be due. Target has
provided adequate accruals in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles in its Financial Statements for any Taxes that have not been paid,
whether or not shown as being due on any Tax Returns. Target has no material
liability for unpaid Taxes accruing after the date of its latest Financial
Statements. There is (i) no material claim for Taxes that is a lien against the
property of Target or is being asserted against Target other than liens for
Taxes not yet due and payable, (ii) no audit of any Tax Return of Target being
conducted by a Tax Authority, (iii) no extension of the statute of limitations
on the assessment of any Taxes granted by Target and currently in effect, and
(iv) no agreement, contract or arrangement to which Target is a party that may
result in the payment of any amount that would not be deductible by reason of
Section 280G or Section 404 of the Code. There has been no change in ownership
of Target that has caused the utilization of any losses of such entities to be
limited pursuant to Section 382 of the Code. Target has not been and will not be
required to include any material adjustment in Taxable income for any Tax period
(or portion thereof) pursuant to Section 481 or 263A of the Code or any
comparable provision under state or foreign Tax laws as a result of
transactions, events or accounting methods employed prior to the Merger. Target
has not filed nor will file any consent to have the provisions of paragraph
341(f)(2) of the Code (or comparable provisions of any state Tax laws) apply to
Target. Target is not a party to any Tax sharing or Tax allocation agreement nor
does Target have any liability or potential liability to another party under any
such agreement. Target has not filed any disclosures under Section 6662 or
comparable provisions of state, local or foreign law to prevent the imposition
of penalties with respect to any Tax reporting position taken on any Tax Return.
Target has never been a member of a consolidated, combined or unitary group of
which Target was not the ultimate parent corporation. For purposes of this
Agreement, the following terms have the following meanings: "Tax" (and, with
correlative meaning, "Taxes" and "Taxable") means (i) any net income,
alternative or add-on minimum tax, gross income, gross receipts, sales, use, ad
valorem, transfer, franchise, profits, license, withholding, payroll,

                                       14

employment, excise, severance, stamp, occupation, premium, property,
environmental or windfall profit tax, custom, duty or other tax, governmental
fee or other like assessment or charge of any kind whatsoever, together with any
interest or any penalty, addition to tax or additional amount imposed by any
governmental entity (a "Tax Authority") responsible for the imposition of any
such tax (domestic or foreign), (ii) any liability for the payment of any
amounts of the type described in (i) as a result of being a member of an
affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group for any Taxable period, and
(iii) any liability for the payment of any amounts of the type described in (i)
or (ii) as a result of being a transferee of or successor to any person or as a
result of any express or implied obligation to indemnify any other person. As
used herein, "Tax Return" shall mean any return, statement, report or form
(including, without limitation, estimated tax returns and reports, withholding
tax returns and reports and information reports and returns) required to be
filed with respect to Taxes. Target has in its possession receipts for any Taxes
paid to foreign Tax authorities. Target has never been a "personal holding
company" within the meaning of Section 542 of the Code or a "United States real
property holding corporation" within the meaning of Section 897 of the Code.

                       (b) Target has provided the following information to
Acquiror: (i) a complete list of the types of Tax Returns being filed by Target
in each taxing jurisdiction, (ii) the year of the commencement of the filing of
each such type of Tax Return, (iii) all closed years with respect to each such
type of Tax Return filed in each jurisdiction, (iv) all material Tax elections
filed in each jurisdiction by Target, (v) the loss carryovers of Target, and
(vi) receipts for any Taxes paid to foreign Tax authorities. Target shall
provide Acquiror and its accountants, counsel and other representatives
reasonable access, during normal business hours during the period prior to the
Effective Time, to all of Target's Tax Returns and other records and workpapers
relating to Taxes.

                  2.14 Employee Benefit Plans.

                       (a) Schedule 2.14 lists, with respect to Target and any
trade or business (whether or not incorporated) which is treated as a single
employer with Target (an "ERISA Affiliate") within the meaning of Section
414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code, (i) all material employee benefit plans (as
defined in Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974,
as amended ("ERISA"), (ii) each outstanding loan to a non-officer employee in
excess of $10,000, loans to officers and directors and any stock option, stock
purchase, phantom stock, stock appreciation right, supplemental retirement,
severance, sabbatical, medical, dental, vision care, disability, employee
relocation, cafeteria benefit (Code Section 125) or dependent care (Code Section
129), life insurance or accident insurance plans, programs or arrangements,
(iii) all bonus, pension, profit sharing, savings, deferred compensation or
incentive plans, programs or arrangements, (iv) other fringe or employee benefit
plans, programs or arrangements that apply to senior management of Target and
that do not generally apply to all employees, and (v) any current or former
employment or executive compensation or severance agreements, written or
otherwise, as to which unsatisfied obligations of Target of greater than $10,000
remain for the benefit of, or relating to, any present or former employee,
consultant or director of Target (together, the "Target Employee Plans").

                       (b) Target has furnished to Acquiror a copy of each of
the Target Employee Plans and related plan documents (including trust documents,
insurance policies or contracts, employee booklets, summary plan descriptions

                                       15

<PAGE>

and other authorizing documents, and any material employee communications
relating thereto) and has, with respect to each Target Employee Plan which is
subject to ERISA reporting requirements, provided copies of the Form 5500
reports filed for the last three plan years. Any Target Employee Plan intended
to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has either obtained from the
Internal Revenue Service a favorable determination letter as to its qualified
status under the Code, including all amendments to the Code effected by the Tax
Reform Act of 1986 and subsequent legislation, or has applied to the Internal
Revenue Service for such a determination letter prior to the expiration of the
requisite period under applicable Treasury Regulations or Internal Revenue
Service pronouncements in which to apply for such determination letter and to
make any amendments necessary to obtain a favorable determination or has been
established under a standardized prototype plan for which an Internal Revenue
Service opinion letter has been obtained by the plan sponsor and is valid as to
the adopting employer. Target has also furnished Acquiror with the most recent
Internal Revenue Service determination or opinion letter issued with respect to
each such Target Employee Plan, and nothing has occurred since the issuance of
each such letter which could reasonably be expected to cause the loss of the
tax-qualified status of any Target Employee Plan subject to Code Section 401(a).
Target has also furnished Acquiror with all registration statements and
prospectuses prepared in connection with each Target Employee Plan.

                       (c) (i) None of the Target Employee Plans promises or
provides retiree medical or other retiree welfare benefits to any person; (ii)
there has been no "prohibited transaction," as such term is defined in Section
406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, with respect to any Target Employee
Plan, which could reasonably be expected to have, in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect on Target; (iii) each Target Employee Plan has been administered
in accordance with its terms and in compliance with the requirements prescribed
by any and all statutes, rules and regulations (including ERISA and the Code),
except as would not have, in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect on Target,
and Target and each ERISA Affiliate have performed all obligations required to
be performed by them under, are not in any material respect in default under or
violation of, and have no knowledge of any material default or violation by any
other party to, any of the Target Employee Plans; (iv) neither Target nor any
subsidiary or ERISA Affiliate is subject to any liability or penalty under
Sections 4976 through 4980 of the Code or Title I of ERISA with respect to any
of the Target Employee Plans; (v) all material contributions required to be made
by Target or any subsidiary or ERISA Affiliate to any Target Employee Plan have
been made on or before their due dates and a reasonable amount has been accrued
for contributions to each Target Employee Plan for the current plan years; (vi)
with respect to each Target Employee Plan, no "reportable event" within the
meaning of Section 4043 of ERISA (excluding any such event for which the thirty
(30) day notice requirement has been waived under the regulations to Section
4043 of ERISA) nor any event described in Section 4062, 4063 or 4041 or ERISA
has occurred; (vii) no Target Employee Plan is covered by, and neither Target
nor any subsidiary or ERISA Affiliate has incurred or expects to incur any
liability under Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code; and (viii) each
Target Employee Plan can be amended, terminated or otherwise discontinued after
the Effective Time in accordance with its terms, without liability to Acquiror
(other than ordinary administrative expenses typically incurred in a termination
event). With respect to each Target Employee Plan subject to ERISA as either an
employee pension plan within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA or an employee
welfare benefit plan within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA, Target has
prepared in good faith and timely filed all requisite governmental reports
(which were true and correct as of the date filed) and has properly and timely

                                       16

<PAGE>

filed and distributed or posted all notices and reports to employees required to
be filed, distributed or posted with respect to each such Target Employee Plan.
No suit, administrative proceeding, action or other litigation has been brought,
or to the best knowledge of Target is threatened, against or with respect to any
such Target Employee Plan, including any audit or inquiry by the IRS or United
States Department of Labor. No payment or benefit which will or may be made by
Target to any Employee will be characterized as an "excess parachute payment"
within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(1) of the Code.

                       (d) With respect to each Target Employee Plan, Target has
complied with (i) the applicable health care continuation and notice provisions
of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 ("COBRA") and the
regulations (including proposed regulations) thereunder, (ii) the applicable
requirements of the Family Medical and Leave Act of 1993 and the regulations
thereunder, except to the extent that such failure to comply would not, in the
aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect on Target and (iii) the applicable
requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996
and the regulations (including proposed regulations) thereunder, except to the
extent that such failure to comply would not, in the aggregate, have a Material
Adverse Effect on Target.

                       (e) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement will not (i) entitle any current or former employee or other
service provider of Target or any ERISA Affiliate to severance benefits or any
other payment, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, or (ii)
accelerate the time of payment or vesting, or increase the amount of
compensation due any such employee or service provider.

                       (f) There has been no amendment to, written
interpretation or announcement (whether or not written) by Target or any ERISA
Affiliate relating to, or change in participation or coverage under, any Target
Employee Plan which would materially increase the expense of maintaining such
Plan above the level of expense incurred with respect to that Plan for the most
recent fiscal year included in Target's financial statements.

                       (g) Pension Plans. Target does not currently maintain,
sponsor, participate in or contribute to, nor has it ever maintained,
established, sponsored, participated in, or contributed to, any pension plan
(within the meaning of Section 3(2) of ERISA) which is subject to Part 3 of
Subtitle B of Title I of ERISA, Title IV of ERISA or Section 412 of the Code.

                       (h) Multiemployer Plans. Neither Target nor any ERISA
Affiliate is a party to, or has made any contribution to or otherwise incurred
any obligation under, any "multiemployer plan" as defined in Section 3(37) of
ERISA.

                  2.15 Certain Agreements Affected by the Merger. Neither the
execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transaction
contemplated hereby will (i) result in any payment (including, without
limitation, severance, unemployment compensation, golden parachute, bonus or

                                       17

<PAGE>

otherwise) becoming due to any director or employee of Target, (ii) materially
increase any benefits otherwise payable by Target to its employees, agents,
consultants and directors, or (iii) except as set forth in Schedule 2.15, result
in the acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any such benefits.

                  2.16 Employee Matters. Target is in compliance in all material
respects with all currently applicable laws and regulations respecting
employment, discrimination in employment, terms and conditions of employment,
wages, hours and occupational safety and health and employment practices, and is
not engaged in any unfair labor practice. Target has withheld all amounts
required by law or by agreement to be withheld from the wages, salaries, and
other payments to employees; and is not liable for any arrears of wages or any
taxes or any penalty for failure to comply with any of the foregoing. Target is
not liable for any payment to any trust or other fund or to any governmental or
administrative authority, with respect to unemployment compensation benefits,
social security or other benefits or obligations for employees (other than
routine payments to be made in the normal course of business and consistent with
past practice). There are no pending claims against Target under any workers
compensation plan or policy or for long term disability. There are no
controversies pending or, to Target's knowledge, threatened, between Target and
any of its employees, which controversies have or could reasonably be expected
to result in an action, suit, proceeding, claim, arbitration or investigation
before any agency, court or tribunal, foreign or domestic. Target is not a party
to any collective bargaining agreement or other labor unions contract nor does
Target know of any activities or proceedings of any labor union or organize any
such employees. To Target's knowledge, no employees of Target are in violation
of any term of any employment contract, patent disclosure agreement,
noncompetition agreement, or any restrictive covenant to a former employer
relating to the right of any such employee to be employed by Target because of
the nature of the business conduced or presently proposed to be conducted by
Target or to the use of trade secrets or proprietary information of others. No
employees of Target have given notice to Target, nor is Target otherwise aware,
that any such employee intends to terminate his or her employment with Target.

                  2.17 Interested Party Transactions. Except as set forth on
Schedule 2.17, Target is not indebted to, nor does it owe any contractual
commitment or arrangement to, with or for the benefit of, any director, officer,
employee, affiliate or agent of Target (except for amounts due as normal
salaries and bonuses and in reimbursement of ordinary expenses), and is not
indebted to, nor does it owe any contractual commitment or arrangement to, with
or for the benefit of, Target. Except for normal salaries and bonuses and
reimbursement of ordinary expenses, since December 31, 1998, Target has not made
any payments, loans or advances of any kind, or paid any dividends or
distributions of any kind, to or for the benefit of any stockholder of Target,
or any of their respective affiliates, associates or family members.

                  2.18 Insurance. Schedule 2.18 is a complete and correct
schedule of all insurance policies held by Target. There is no material claim
pending under any of such policies or bonds as to which coverage has been
questioned, denied or disputed by the underwriters of such policies or bonds.
All premiums due and payable under all such policies and bonds have been paid
and Target is otherwise in compliance with the terms of such policies and bonds.
Target has no knowledge of any threatened termination of, or material premium
increase with respect to, any of such policies.

foreign statute, law or regulation with respect to the conduct of its business,
or the ownership or operation of its business.

                  2.20 Minute Books. The minute books of Target made available
to Acquiror contain a complete and accurate summary of all meetings of the board
of directors or any committee thereof and shareholders or actions by written

Agreement, and reflect all transactions referred to in such minutes accurately
in all material respects.

                  2.21 Brokers' and Finders' Fees. Target has not incurred, nor
will it incur, directly or indirectly, any liability for brokerage or finders'

<PAGE>

agreement or other contract for the borrowing of money, any currency exchange,
commodities or other hedging arrangement or any leasing transaction of the type
required to be capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles;

                       (f) any contract for capital expenditures in excess of

                       (i) any contract with any person with whom the Target
does not deal at arm's length; or

assumption or endorsement of, or any similar commitment with respect to, the
obligations, liabilities (whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) or
indebtedness of any other Person.

                  2.26 No Breach of Material Contracts. The Target has performed
all of the obligations required to be performed by it and is entitled to all
benefits under, and is not alleged to be in default in respect of any Material
Contract. Each of the Material Contracts is in full force and effect, unamended
(except as disclosed on Schedule 2.25), and there exists no default or event of
default or event, occurrence, condition or act, with respect to Target or to
Target's knowledge with respect to the other contracting party, which, with the
giving of notice, the lapse of the time or the happening of any other event or
conditions, would become a default or event of default under any Material
Contract. True, correct and complete copies of all Material Contracts have been
delivered to the Acquiror.

                  2.27 Product Releases. Target has provided Acquiror a Schedule
of Product Releases, which Schedule is attached hereto as Schedule 2.27. Target
has a good faith reasonable belief that it can achieve the release of products
on the schedule described in Schedule 2.27 and is not currently aware of any
change in its circumstances or other fact that has occurred that would cause it
to believe that it will be unable to meet such release schedule.

                  2.28 Year 2000. None of the products and services sold,
licensed, rendered, or otherwise provided by Target in the conduct of its
business will malfunction, will cease to function, will generate materially
incorrect data or will produce materially incorrect results and will not cause
any of the above with respect to the property or business of third parties using
such products or services when processing, providing or receiving (i)
date-related data from, into and between the Twentieth (20th) and Twenty-First
(21st) centuries, or (ii) date-related data in connection with any valid date in
the Twentieth (20th) and Twenty-First (21st) centuries, causing a Material
Adverse Effect on Target, provided that the hardware, software and data
environment in which such products or services operate or with which they
interact does not malfunction, cease to function, generate materially incorrect

                                       20

<PAGE>

data or produce materially incorrect results or cause any of the above with
respect to the property or business of third parties when processing, providing
or receiving such date-related data.

                  2.29 Accounting and Tax Matters. As of the date hereof,
neither Target nor any of its Affiliates has taken or agreed to take any action,
nor does Target have knowledge of any fact or circumstance, that would prevent
Acquiror from accounting for the business combination to be effected by the
Merger as a pooling of interests or prevent the Merger from qualifying as a
reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

                  2.30 Representations Complete. None of the representations or
warranties made by Target herein or in any Schedule hereto, including the Target
Disclosure Schedule, or certificate furnished by Target pursuant to this
Agreement, when all such documents are read together in their entirety, contains
or will contain at the Effective Time any untrue statement of a material fact,
or omits or will omit at the Effective Time to state any material fact necessary
in order to make the statements contained herein or therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which made, not misleading.

                                  ARTICLE III

         REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF ACQUIROR AND ACQUISITION SUB

                  Except as disclosed in a document of even date herewith and
delivered by Acquiror and Acquisition Sub to Target prior to the execution and

Sub represent and warrant to Target as follows:

                  3.1 Organization, Standing and Power. Acquiror and Acquisition
Sub are each a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization. Acquiror and Acquisition Sub
each has the corporate power to own its properties and to carry on its business
as now being conducted and as proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified to
do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the failure to
be so qualified and in good standing would have a Material Adverse Effect on
Acquiror. Neither Acquiror nor Acquisition Sub is in violation of any of the
provisions of its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws or equivalent
organizational documents.

                  3.2 Capital Structure. The authorized capital stock of
Acquiror consists of 28,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.05, of
which 459,698 were issued and outstanding as of the close of business on the
date hereof. There are no other outstanding shares of capital stock or voting
securities and no outstanding commitments to issue any shares of capital stock
or voting securities, other than pursuant to the exercise of options outstanding
as of such date under the Acquiror's stock option plan. All outstanding shares
of Acquiror Capital Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable, and are not subject to preemptive rights or rights of first
refusal created by statute, the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of
Acquiror or any agreement to which Acquiror is a party or by which it is bound.
Except for Acquiror's right to repurchase any unvested shares under its stock
option plan, there are no other options, warrants, calls, rights, commitments or

                                       21

<PAGE>

agreements of any character to which Acquiror is a party or by which it is bound
obligating Acquiror to issue, deliver, sell, repurchase or redeem, or cause to
be issued, delivered, sold, repurchased or redeemed, any shares of capital stock
of Acquiror or obligating Acquiror to grant, extend, accelerate the vesting of,
change the price of, or otherwise amend or enter into any such option, warrant,
call, right, commitment or agreement and there are no outstanding rights to
compel Acquiror to register any shares of Acquiror's capital stock, whether
outstanding or to be issued upon the exercise or conversion of any security. A
true and complete copy of all of Acquiror's stock option plans shall be provided
to Target prior to the Effective Time and there is no agreement to effect any
modification, amendment or supplement such plans. All outstanding shares of
Common Stock were issued in compliance with all applicable federal and state
securities laws.

                  3.3 Authority. Acquiror and Acquisition Sub each has all
requisite corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of
this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Acquiror
and Acquisition Sub. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by
Acquiror and Acquisition Sub, and constitutes the valid and binding obligations
of Acquiror and Acquisition Sub, enforceable against them in accordance with its
terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization,
moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting
creditors' rights and to general equity principles. The execution and delivery
of this Agreement do not, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default under
(with or without notice or lapse of time, or both), or give rise to a right of
termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or loss of a benefit
under (i) any provision of the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of Acquiror
or Acquisition Sub, as amended, or (ii) any material mortgage, indenture, lease,
contract or other agreement or instrument, permit, concession, franchise,
license, judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation
applicable to Acquiror or Acquisition Sub, or to their respective properties or
assets. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration,
declaration or filing with, any Governmental Entity, is required by or with

officers' certificates, as provided in Section 1.2, (ii) any filings as may be
required under applicable state securities laws and the securities laws of any
foreign country, and (iii) such other consents, authorizations, filings,

Material Adverse Effect on Acquiror and would not prevent, materially alter or
delay any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

                  3.4 Financial Statements. Acquiror has made available to
Target its audited financial statements on a consolidated basis for the three
fiscal years ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998 and its unaudited financial
statements (balance sheet, statement of operations and statement of cash flows)
on a consolidated basis as at, and for the three-month period ended, March 31,
1999 (collectively, the "Acquiror Financial Statements") certified by KPMG LLP,
certified public accountants. The Acquiror Financial Statements have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP (except that the unaudited financial statements
do not have notes thereto) applied on a consistent basis throughout the periods
indicated and with each other. The Acquiror Financial Statements fairly present

                                       22

<PAGE>

the financial condition and operating results of Acquiror as of the dates, and
for the periods, indicated therein, subject to normal year-end audit
adjustments. Acquiror maintains and will continue to maintain an adequate system
of internal controls established and administered in accordance with GAAP.

                  3.5 EASDAQ Filing. Acquiror has delivered to Target its
Preliminary Prospectus in connection with its proposed EASDAQ offering, a draft
of which is attached hereto as Exhibit D which Acquiror expects to file with
EASDAQ (the "Acquiror EASDAQ Filing"). The Acquiror EASDAQ Filing was prepared
in accordance with the requirements of the EASDAQ Rule Book, Annex A, "Contents
of the Prospectus (EASDAQ IPO)" and does not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of Acquiror and
its Subsidiaries included in the Acquiror EASDAQ Documents comply as to form in
all material respects with applicable accounting requirements, have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis (except as may be
indicated in the notes thereto) and fairly present the consolidated financial
position of Acquiror and its consolidated Subsidiaries as of the dates thereof
and the consolidated results of their operations and cash flows and for the
periods then ended (subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal
year-end audit adjustments).

                  3.6 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities. Acquiror has no
material obligations or liabilities of any nature (matured or unmatured, fixed
or contingent) other than (i) those set forth or adequately provided for in the
balance sheet included in the Acquiror's financial statements as of March 31,
1999 (the "Acquiror Balance Sheet"), (ii) those incurred in the ordinary course
of business and not required to be set forth in the Acquiror Balance Sheet under
GAAP, and (iii) those incurred in connection with the execution of this
Agreement.

                  3.7 Tax Matters. The shares of Acquiror Common Stock to be
received by the shareholders of Target in the Merger (including the Escrow
Shares) represent less than 50% of the total voting power and less than 50% of
the total value of the outstanding stock of Acquiror. Acquiror satisfies the
"active trade or business" test as defined in paragraph (c)(3) of Section
1.367(a)-3 of the United States Income Tax Regulations. As of the date hereof,
neither Acquiror nor Acquisition Sub has taken or agreed to take any action, nor
does Acquiror have knowledge of any fact or circumstance, that would prevent the
Merger from qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)
of the Code.

                  3.8 Complete Copies of Materials. Acquiror has delivered or
made available true and complete copies of each document which has been
requested by Target or its counsel in connection with their legal and accounting
review of Acquiror.

warranties made by Acquiror or Acquisition Sub herein or in any Schedule hereto,
including the Acquiror Disclosure Schedule, or certificate furnished by Acquiror
or Acquisition Sub pursuant to this Agreement, when all such documents are read

any other person against any charge of infringement of any Intellectual
Property, other than indemnification provisions contained in purchase orders or
license agreements arising in the ordinary course of business.

                       (c) To Acquiror's knowledge, Acquiror is not, nor will it
be as a result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the
performance of its obligations under this Agreement, in breach of any license,
sublicense or other agreement relating to the Acquiror Intellectual Property or
Third Party Intellectual Property Rights.

                       (d) All patents, registered trademarks, registered
service marks and registered copyrights held by Acquiror are valid and

which involves a claim of infringement of any patents, trademarks, service
marks, copyrights or violation of any trade secret or other proprietary right of
any third party; (ii) has no knowledge that the manufacturing, marketing,
licensing or sale of its products infringes any patent, trademark, service mark,

and preserve the confidentiality of all Acquiror Intellectual Property not
otherwise protected by patents, patent applications or copyright ("Confidential

pursuant to the terms of a written agreement between Acquiror and the owner of
such Confidential Information, or is otherwise lawful.

                  3.12 Year 2000. None of the products and services sold,
licensed, rendered, or otherwise provided by Acquiror in the conduct of its
business will malfunction, will cease to function, will generate materially
incorrect data or will produce materially incorrect results and will not cause
any of the above with respect to the property or business of third parties using
such products or services when processing, providing or receiving (i)

environment in which such products or services operate or with which they
interact does not malfunction, cease to function, generate materially incorrect
data or produce materially incorrect results or cause any of the above with
respect to the property or business of third parties when processing, providing
or receiving such date-related data.

misleading or to comply with applicable law. The Information Statement shall
contain the recommendation of the Board of Directors of Target that the Target
Shareholders approve the Merger and this Agreement and the conclusion of the
Board of Directors that the terms and conditions of the Merger are fair and

<PAGE>

reasonable to the shareholders of Target. The Board of Directors of Target shall
not withdraw, amend or modify such recommendation unless required to do so by
its fiduciary obligations as advised in writing by Target's legal counsel
following the receipt of a Takeover Proposal. Anything to the contrary contained
herein notwithstanding, Target shall not include in the Information Statement
any information with respect to Acquiror or its affiliates or associates, the
form and content of which information shall not have been approved by Acquiror
prior to such inclusion. Target shall use its best efforts to obtain approval of
its stockholders of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement as promptly
as practicable after the date hereof.

                  5.2 Meeting of Shareholders. If required, Target shall

Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws to convene the Target Shareholders
Meeting or to secure the written consent of its shareholders within thirty (30)

the date of the Target Shareholders Meeting and use all reasonable efforts and
shall not postpone or adjourn (other than for the absence of a quorum) the
Target Shareholders Meeting without the consent of Acquiror. Target shall use
its best efforts to solicit from shareholders of Target proxies in favor of the
Merger and shall take all other reasonable action to secure the vote or consent

                      (a) Target shall afford Acquiror and its accountants,
counsel and other representatives, reasonable access during normal business

on a regular and frequent basis with one or more representatives of the other
party to report operational matters of materiality and the general status of
ongoing operations.

                      (c) No information or knowledge obtained in any
investigation pursuant to this Section 5.3 shall affect or be deemed to modify
any representation or warranty contained herein or the conditions to the
obligations of the parties to consummate the Merger.

                  5.4 Confidentiality. The parties acknowledge that Acquiror and
Target have previously executed a non-disclosure agreement dated April 16, 1999
(the "Confidentiality Agreement"), the form of which is attached hereto as
Exhibit B, which Confidentiality Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect in accordance with its terms.

                  5.5 Public Disclosure. Unless otherwise permitted by this
Agreement, Acquiror and Target shall consult with each other before issuing any

<PAGE>

inquiry) regarding the terms of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby, and neither shall issue any such press release or make any such
statement or disclosure without the prior approval of the other (which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld), except as may be required by law or by
obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any securities exchange.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree that neither party shall engage
in general solicitation or other public announcement that will have the effect
of making the issuances of Acquiror Common Stock pursuant to the Merger fail to
comply with Section 4(2) or Regulation D of the rules and regulations
promulgated under the Securities Act.

                  5.6 Consents; Cooperation.

or otherwise seek, and use its best efforts to obtain, all consents and
approvals required to be obtained by it for the consummation of the Merger, and
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary consents,
waivers and approvals under any of its Material Contracts in connection with the
Merger for the assignment thereof or otherwise. The parties hereto will consult
and cooperate with one another, and consider in good faith the views of one
another, in connection with any analyses, appearances, presentations, memoranda,
briefs, arguments, opinions and proposals made or submitted by or on behalf of
any party hereto in connection with proceedings under or relating to any
federal, state or foreign antitrust or fair trade law.

                      (b) Without limiting any of the foregoing, in connection
with obtaining the consent of the landlord to the Merger under Target's lease
for the Leased Property (the "Real Property Lease"), Acquiror shall promptly
provide to the landlord all information and materials requested in connection
with such consent, and shall take all commercially reasonable actions to secure
such consent and to effect the execution and delivery by the landlord to
Christopher Hassett and Janet Hassett (the "Hassetts") of a termination and
release, effective as of the Effective Time, in form and substance acceptable to
the Hassetts, of any and all guarantees by the Hassetts of the Real Property
Lease (including pursuant to Section 80 of the Real Property Lease) (the
"Release of Guaranty").

                  5.7 Shareholder Representation Agreements. Target shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to deliver or cause to be delivered to Acquiror,
prior to the Effective Time, from each of the security holders of Target who has
not executed a Shareholder Agreement, an executed Shareholder Representation
Agreement (the "Shareholder Representation Agreement") in the form attached

Acquiror a Shareholder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A and an
Irrevocable Proxy substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached thereto

time that the Information Statement is mailed to the shareholders of Target.

                  5.9 Legal Requirements. Each of Acquiror and Target will, and
will cause their respective subsidiaries to, take all reasonable actions
necessary to comply promptly with all legal requirements which may be imposed on
them with respect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and will promptly cooperate with and furnish information to any party

will cooperate with the other parties hereto in obtaining) any consent,
approval, order or authorization of, or any registration, declaration or filing
with, any Governmental Entity or other person, required to be obtained or made
in connection with the taking of any action contemplated by this Agreement.

                  5.10 Federal Securities and Blue Sky Laws. Acquiror shall take
such steps as may be necessary to comply with the U.S. federal securities laws
as well as the securities and blue sky laws of all jurisdictions which are
applicable to the issuance of the Acquiror Common Stock in connection with the
Merger. Without limiting the foregoing, Acquiror shall not take any action that
will make the resale provisions of Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, unavailable to the holders that are not affiliates of shares
received therein for those of Acquiror, provided that the parties acknowledge
that, at such time that Acquiror may do so in compliance with the U.S. federal
securities laws, the Acquiror may engage in marketing efforts in the United
States in connection with a public offering of its securities on the NASDAQ
stock market. Target shall use its best efforts to assist Acquiror as may be
necessary to comply with the U.S. federal securities laws as well as the
securities and blue sky laws of all jurisdictions which are applicable in
connection with the issuance of Acquiror Common Stock in connection with the
Merger.

                  5.11 Employee Benefit Plans.

                       (a) Assumption of Options. At the Effective Time, the
Target Stock Option Plan, and each outstanding option to purchase shares of
Target Common Stock under the Target Stock Option Plan, whether vested or
unvested, will be assumed by Acquiror. Schedule 5.11 hereto sets forth a true
and complete list as of the date hereof of all holders of outstanding options
under the Target Stock Option Plan including the number of shares of Target
Capital Stock subject to each such option, the exercise or vesting schedule, the
exercise price per share and the term of each such option. On the Closing Date,
Target shall deliver to Acquiror an updated Schedule 5.11 current as of such
date. Each such option so assumed by Acquiror under this Agreement shall
continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in
the Target Stock Option Plan and the applicable stock option agreement
immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) such option will be
exercisable for that number of whole shares of Acquiror Common Stock equal to
the product of the number of shares of Target Common Stock that were issuable

                                       31

<PAGE>

upon exercise of such option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied
by the Exchange Ratio and rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of
Acquiror Common Stock, and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of
Acquiror Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed option will be
equal to fifty percent (50%) of the market price per share of Acquiror's common
stock on the Vienna Stock Exchange as of the market close at the Effective Time.
It is the intention of the parties that the options so assumed by Acquiror
qualify, to the maximum extent permissible, following the Effective Time as
incentive stock options as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the extent such
options qualified as incentive stock options prior to the Effective Time.
Following the Effective Time, Acquiror will issue to each person who,
immediately prior to the Effective Time was a holder of an outstanding option
under the Target Stock Option Plan a document in form and substance satisfactory
to Target evidencing the foregoing assumption of such option by Acquiror.

                       (b) Assignment of Repurchase Options. All outstanding
rights of Target which it may hold immediately prior to the Effective Time to
repurchase unvested shares of Target Common Stock (the "Repurchase Options")
shall be assigned to Acquiror in the Merger and shall thereafter be exercisable
by Acquiror upon the same terms and conditions in effect immediately prior to
the Effective Time, except that the shares purchasable pursuant to the
Repurchase Options and the purchase price per shall be adjusted to reflect the
Exchange Ratio.

                  5.12 Escrow Agreement. On or before the Effective Time, the
Escrow Agent, the Shareholders' Agent (as defined in Article VIII hereto),
Target and Acquiror will execute the Escrow Agreement contemplated by Article
VIII in the form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of Acquiror and
Target ("Escrow Agreement").

                  5.13 Employees. Set forth on Schedule 5.13 is a list of
employees of Target to whom Acquiror will make an offer of employment pursuant
to an Employment and Non-Competition Agreement, the form and substance of which
to be reasonably satisfactory to each of Acquiror and Target. Acquiror will
negotiate in good faith to enter into an agreement with the employees listed on
Schedule 5.13. Target shall cooperate with Acquiror to assist Acquiror in
entering into an agreement with such employees. Acquiror shall have no
obligation to make an offer of employment to any employee of Target except those
listed on Schedule 5.13.

                  5.14 Expenses. Whether or not the Merger is consummated, all
costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Certificate
of Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be paid by
the party incurring such expense; provided, however, that any out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by Target in excess of $200,000 for fees and expenses of legal
counsel plus any other expenses, including, without limitation, fees and
expenses of financial advisors and accountants, if any, shall remain an
obligation of Target's shareholders. If Acquiror or Target receives any invoices
for amounts in excess of said amount, it may, with Acquiror's written approval,
pay such fees; provided, however, that such payment shall, if not promptly
reimbursed by the Target Shareholders at Acquiror's request, constitute
"Damages" recoverable under the Escrow Agreement and such Damages shall not be
subject to the Escrow Basket.

                                       32

                  5.15 Treatment as Reorganization. Following the Effective
Time, Acquiror shall cause Target to comply with all the reporting requirements
set forth in paragraph (c)(6) of Section 1.367(a)-(3) of the United States
Income Tax Regulations. Neither Target nor Acquiror shall take any action prior
to or following the Closing that would cause the merger to fail to qualify as a
"reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code.

                  5.16 Further Assurances. Each of the parties to this Agreement
shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effectuate the transactions
contemplated hereby and to fulfill and cause to be fulfilled the conditions to
closing under this Agreement. Each party hereto, at the reasonable request of
another party hereto, shall execute and deliver such other instruments and do
and perform such other acts and things as may be necessary or desirable for
effecting completely the consummation of this Agreement and the transactions
contemplated hereby.

                  5.17 Preferred Stock. Target shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to ensure that either all of Target's outstanding Preferred Stock shall
have been converted into Common Stock in accordance with the Articles of
Incorporation of Target or that the Articles of Incorporation of Target shall
provide that the Merger shall cause a liquidation event with respect to the
Target Preferred Stock, with the holders of the Target Preferred Stock receiving
in the Merger, in exchange for their shares of Target Preferred Stock shares of
Acquiror Common Stock.

                  5.18 Pooling Accounting. Acquiror and Target shall each use
commercially reasonable efforts to cause the business combination to be effected
by the Merger to be accounted for as a pooling of interests. Each of Acquiror
and Target shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its officers,
directors and 10% shareholders not to take any action that would adversely
affect the ability of Acquiror to account for the business combination to be
effected by the merger as a pooling of interests.

                  5.19 Pooling Letter. Acquiror shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to cause to be delivered to Acquiror a letter of KPMG LLP,
Acquiror's independent auditors, dated a date on or before the Effective Time to
the effect that, assuming Acquiror is a corporation eligible to be a party to a
transaction seeking pooling of interests accounting treatment and that the
participation of Acquiror in the Merger will not, in and of itself, disqualify
the Merger from qualifying for pooling of interests accounting treatment, the
Merger qualifies for pooling of interests accounting treatment if consummated in
accordance with this Agreement. Such letter shall be in a form reasonably
satisfactory to each of Target and Acquiror and shall be customary in scope and
substance for letters delivered by independent public accountants in connection
with transactions of this type.

                  5.20 Easdaq Listing. Acquiror shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to (i) list Acquiror on the Easdaq stock market and (ii)
comply with all requirements for such listing within the time periods specified
by Easdaq and as set forth in all Easdaq manuals and guides, including the
Admission to Trading on Easdaq manual. Following its listing on Easdaq, Acquiror
will not take any action which would disqualify Target Shareholders from
availing themselves of the provisions of Regulation S of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended.

                                       33

<PAGE>

                  5.21 Pooling Memorandum. Target shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to obtain from its certified public accountants a memorandum
summarizing such accountants' review of the ability of the Merger to be
accounted for as a pooling-of-interests solely with respect to Target on or
before 12:00 p.m. New York time, on Thursday, May 6, 1999.

                  5.22 Employee Bonuses.

                       (a) After the Effective Time, Acquiror shall pay to such
employees of Target, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, as
designated by Acquiror's management in its sole discretion, signing bonuses in
an aggregate amount of not less than $250,000 upon such terms and conditions as
Acquiror's management may determine.

                       (b) Acquiror shall establish a retention bonus
arrangement in favor of certain employees of Target as of immediately prior to
the Effective Time, pursuant to which two million dollars ($2,000,000) in cash
or options with a value at the time of grant of at least $2,000,000 (or any
combination thereof with an aggregate value of $2,000,000) shall be paid to such
employees as determined by Acquiror management upon such terms and conditions
and at such times as Acquiror's senior management may determine.

pursuant to this Section 8.2(a) shall be limited to the Escrow Shares held in
the Escrow Fund.

<PAGE>

                      (b) Subject to the limitations set forth in this Article
VIII, Acquiror will indemnify and hold harmless the Target Stockholders, and
their officers, directors, agents, employees, affiliates (as defined in Rule 144
of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) (hereinafter referred to individually
as a "Target Indemnified Person" and collectively as "Target Indemnified
Persons") from and against any and all losses, costs, damages, liabilities and
expenses arising form claims, demands, actions, causes of action, including,
without limitation, reasonable legal fees, net of any recoveries by any Target
Stockholder under existing insurance policies or indemnities from third parties
(collectively, "Target Damages") arising out of (i) any misrepresentation or
breach of or default in connection with any of the representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements given or made by Acquiror in this Agreement, the
Acquiror Disclosure Schedules or any exhibit or schedule to this Agreement.
Additional shares of Acquiror Common Stock ("Indemnity Shares") shall be issued
by Acquiror to the Target Indemnified Parties to compensate the Target
Indemnified Parties pursuant to the indemnification obligations of Acquiror set
forth in Section 8.2(b). Acquiror's maximum aggregate liability pursuant to this
Section 8.2(b) shall be limited to the issuance of the same number of shares of
Acquiror's Common Stock as shall initially be in the Escrow Fund; provided that
such limitation shall not apply to Target Damages relating to a breach of
Acquiror's representation and warranty under Section 3.7.

                      (c) Acquiror and Target each acknowledge that (i) the
Acquiror Damages, if any, would relate to unresolved contingencies existing at
the Effective Time, which if resolved at the Effective Time would have led to a
reduction in the total number of shares Acquiror would have agreed to issue in
connection with the Merger and (ii) the Target Damages, if any, would relate to
unresolved contingencies existing at the Effective Time, which if resolved at
the Effective Time would have led to an increase in the total number of shares
Acquiror would have agreed to issue in connection with the Merger.

                  8.3 Damage Threshold.

                      (a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Acquiror may not
receive any shares from the Escrow Fund unless and until an Acquiror Officer's
Certificate or Certificates (as defined in Section 8.5 below) identifying
Acquiror Damages the aggregate amount of which exceeds $100,000 has been
delivered to the Escrow Agent as provided in Section 8.5 below and such amount
is determined pursuant to this Article VIII to be payable, in which case
Acquiror shall receive shares equal in value to the full amount of Acquiror
Damages; provided, however, that in no event shall Acquiror receive more than
the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock originally placed in the Escrow
Fund indemnification. In determining the amount of any Acquiror Damage
attributable to a breach, any materiality standard contained in a
representation, warranty or covenant of Acquiror shall be disregarded.

                      (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Target Indemnified
Persons may not receive any Indemnity Shares from Acquiror unless and until a
Target Certificate or Certificates (as defined in Section 8.5 below) identifying
Target Damages the aggregate amount of which exceeds $100,000 has been delivered
to Acquiror as provided in Section 8.5 below and such amount is determined
pursuant to this Article VIII to be payable, in which case the Target
Indemnified Persons shall receive Indemnity Shares equal in value to the full
amount of Target Damages. In determining the amount of any Target Damage

                                       40

<PAGE>

attributable to a breach, any materiality standard contained in a
representation, warranty or covenant provided by Acquiror shall be disregarded.

                  8.4 Escrow Period. Subject to the last sentence of this
Section 8.4, the period during which the indemnification rights under this
Article VIII may be asserted shall terminate upon the one year anniversary of
the Effective Time (the "Escrow Period"); provided, however, that (i) a portion
of the Escrow Shares, which is necessary to satisfy any unsatisfied claims
specified in any Acquiror Officer's Certificate theretofore delivered to the
Escrow Agent prior to termination of the Escrow Period with respect to facts and
circumstances existing prior to expiration of the Escrow Period, shall remain in
the Escrow Fund until such claims have been resolved and (ii) the right to
receive Indemnity Shares necessary to satisfy any unsatisfied claims specified
in any Target Certificate theretofore delivered to Acquiror prior to termination
of the Escrow Period with respect to facts and circumstances existing prior to
expiration of the Escrow Period, shall remain in full force and effect until
such claims have been resolved. Notwithstanding anything set forth in this
Article VIII, indemnification claims based upon breaches of Section 3.7 may be
asserted before and after the end of the Escrow Period. Acquiror shall deliver
to the Escrow Agent a certificate specifying the Effective Time.

                  8.5 Claims upon Escrow Fund.

                      (a) Upon receipt by the Escrow Agent on or before the last
day of the Escrow Period of a certificate signed by any officer of Acquiror (an
"Acquiror Officer's Certificate"):

                          (i) stating that, Acquiror Damages exist in an
aggregate amount greater than $100,000; and

                          (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual
items of such Acquiror Damages included in the amount so stated, the date each
such item was paid, or properly accrued or arose, the nature of the
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or claim to which such item is related,

the Escrow Agent shall, subject to the provisions of Section 8.6 and 8.7 below,
deliver to Acquiror out of the Escrow Fund, as promptly as practicable, Acquiror
Common Stock or other assets held in the Escrow Fund having a value equal to
such Damages.

                      (b) Upon receipt by Acquiror on or before the last day of
the Escrow Period of a certificate signed by the Stockholder's Agent (a "Target
Certificate"):

                          (i) stating that, Target Damages exist in an aggregate
amount greater than $100,000; and

                          (ii) specifying in reasonable detail the individual
items of such Target Damages included in the amount so stated, the date each
such item was paid, or properly accrued or arose, the nature of the
misrepresentation, breach of warranty or claim to which such item is related,

                                       41

<PAGE>

                  Acquiror shall, subject to the provisions of Section 8.6 and
8.7 below, deliver, as promptly as practicable, to the Target Indemnified
Persons (pro rata in accordance with the shares of Target Capital Stock
exchanged by each Target Indemnified Person for shares of Acquiror Common Stock
in the Merger), Acquiror Common Stock, as Indemnification Shares, having a value
equal to such Target Damages.

                      (c) For the purpose of compensating Acquiror or any Target
Indemnified Person for its Damages pursuant to this Agreement, the Acquiror
Common Stock to be used as Escrow Shares or Indemnification Shares shall be
valued at $649 per share (subject to equitable adjustment upon any
reclassification, share combination, share subdivision, share dividend, share
exchange or other similar transaction or event).

                  8.6 Objections to Claims.

                      (a) At the time of delivery of any Acquiror Officer's
Certificate to the Escrow Agent, a duplicate copy of such Acquiror Officer's
Certificate shall be delivered to the Shareholders' Agent (defined in Section
8.8 below) and for a period of forty-five (45) days after such delivery to the
Escrow Agent of such Certificate, the Escrow Agent shall make no delivery of
Acquiror Common Stock or other property pursuant to Section 8.5 hereof unless
the Escrow Agent shall have received written authorization from the
Shareholders' Agent to make such delivery. After the expiration of such
forty-five (45) day period, the Escrow Agent shall make delivery of the Acquiror
Common Stock or other property in the Escrow Fund in accordance with Section 8.5
hereof, provided that no such payment or delivery may be made if the
Shareholders' Agent shall object in a written statement to the claim made in the
Acquiror Officer's Certificate, and such statement shall have been delivered to
the Escrow Agent and to Acquiror prior to the expiration of such forty-five (45)
day period.

                      (b) Within 45 days of the time of delivery of any Target
Certificate to Acquiror, Acquiror shall issue to the Target Indemnified Parties
shares of Acquiror Common Stock in accordance with Section 8.5 hereof; provided
that no such payment or delivery shall be made under this Section 8.6(b) if
Acquiror shall object in a written statement to the claims made in the Target
Certificate provided that such statement shall have been delivered to the
Shareholders' Agent prior to the expiration of such forty-five (45) day period.

                  8.7 Resolution of Conflicts; Arbitration.

                      (a) In case the Shareholders' Agent shall so object in
writing to any claim or claims by Acquiror made in any Acquiror Officer's
Certificate, Acquiror shall have forty-five (45) days after receipt by the
Escrow Agent of an objection by the Shareholders' Agent to respond in a written
statement to the objection of the Shareholders' Agent. If after such forty-five
(45) day period there remains a dispute as to any claims, the Shareholders'
Agent and Acquiror shall attempt in good faith for sixty (60) days to agree upon
the rights of the respective parties with respect to each of such claims. If the
Shareholders' Agent and Acquiror should so agree, a memorandum setting forth
such agreement shall be prepared and signed by both parties and shall be
furnished to the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on any
such memorandum and shall distribute the Acquiror Common Stock or other property
from the Escrow Fund in accordance with the terms thereof.

                                       42

<PAGE>

                      (b) If no agreement can be reached after good faith
negotiation in accordance with Section 8.7(a) or Acquiror objects under Section
8.6(b) to the claims asserted against Acquiror by the Shareholders' Agent,
either Acquiror or the Shareholders' Agent may, by written notice to the other,
demand arbitration of the matter unless the amount of the damage or loss is at
issue in pending litigation with a third party, in which event arbitration shall
not be commenced until such amount is ascertained or both parties agree to
arbitration; and in either such event the matter shall be settled by arbitration
conducted by three arbitrators. Within fifteen (15) days after such written
notice is sent, Acquiror and the Shareholders' Agent shall each select one
arbitrator, and the two arbitrators so selected shall select a third arbitrator.
The decision of the arbitrators as to the validity and amount of any claim in
such Certificate shall be binding and conclusive upon the parties to this
Agreement, and notwithstanding anything in Section 8.6 hereof, (i) in the case
of claims against the Escrow Fund, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to act in
accordance with such decision and make or withhold payments out of the Escrow
Fund in accordance therewith and (ii) in the case of claims against Acquiror,
Acquiror shall issue and deliver to the Target Indemnified Party the required
number of Indemnity Shares in accordance with this Article VIII.

                      (c) Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrators
may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Any such arbitration shall be
held in New York, New York under the commercial rules then in effect of the
American Arbitration Association. For purposes of this Section 8.7(c), in any
arbitration hereunder in which any claim or the amount thereof stated in the
Certificate is at issue, Acquiror shall be deemed to be the Non-Prevailing Party
unless the arbitrators award Acquiror more than one-half (1/2) of the amount in
dispute, plus any amounts not in dispute; otherwise, the Target Shareholders
shall be deemed to be the Non-Prevailing Party. The Non-Prevailing Party to an
arbitration shall pay its own expenses, the fees of each arbitrator, the
administrative fee of the American Arbitration Association, and the expenses,
including without limitation, attorneys' fees and costs, reasonably incurred by
the other party to the arbitration.

                  8.8 Shareholders' Agent.

                      (a) Christopher Hassett shall be constituted and appointed
as agent ("Shareholders' Agent") for and on behalf of the Target Shareholders to
give and receive notices and communications (including Target Certificates), to
authorize delivery to Acquiror of the Acquiror Common Stock or other property
from the Escrow Fund in satisfaction of claims by Acquiror, to object to such
deliveries, to agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of,
and demand arbitration and comply with orders of courts and awards of
arbitrators with respect to such claims, and to take all actions necessary or
appropriate in the judgment of the Shareholders' Agent for the accomplishment of
the foregoing. Such agency may be changed by the holders of a majority in
interest of the Escrow Fund from time to time upon not less than ten (10) days'
prior written notice to Acquiror. No bond shall be required of the Shareholders'
Agent, and the Shareholders' Agent shall receive no compensation for his
services. Notices or communications to or from the Shareholders' Agent shall
constitute notice to or from each of the Target Shareholders. The parties
acknowledge that in no event may any individual other than the Shareholder's
Agent make any claim against Acquiror pursuant to this Section 8.

                                       43

<PAGE>

                      (b) The Shareholders' Agent shall not be liable for any
act done or omitted hereunder as Shareholders' Agent while acting in good faith
and in the exercise of reasonable judgment, and any act done or omitted pursuant
to the advice of counsel shall be conclusive evidence of such good faith. The
Target Shareholders shall severally indemnify the Shareholders' Agent and hold
him harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without gross
negligence or bad faith on the part of the Shareholders' Agent and arising out
of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of his duties
hereunder.

                      (c) The Shareholders' Agent shall have reasonable access
to information about Target and the reasonable assistance of Target's officers
and employees for purposes of performing its duties and exercising its rights
hereunder, provided that the Shareholders' Agent shall treat confidentially and
not disclose any nonpublic information from or about Target to anyone (except on
a need to know basis to individuals who agree to treat such information
confidentially).

                  8.9 Actions of the Shareholders' Agent. A decision, act,
consent or instruction of the Shareholders' Agent shall constitute a decision of
all Target Shareholders for purposes of this Article VIII and shall be final,
binding and conclusive upon each such Target Shareholder, and the Escrow Agent,
if applicable, and Acquiror may rely upon any decision, act, consent or
instruction of the Shareholders' Agent as being the decision, act, consent or
instruction of each and every such Target Shareholder. The Escrow Agent, if
applicable, and Acquiror are hereby relieved from any liability to any person
for any acts done by them in accordance with such decision, act, consent or
instruction of the Shareholders' Agent.

                  8.10 Third-Party Claims. In the event Acquiror becomes aware
of a third-party claim which Acquiror believes may result in a demand against
the Escrow Fund, the Indemnification Shares, or Acquiror's ability to issue the
Indemnification Shares, Acquiror shall promptly notify the Shareholders' Agent
of such claim, and the Shareholders' Agent and the Target Shareholders, at their
expense, to participate in any defense of such claim. Acquiror shall have the
right in its sole discretion to settle any such claim; provided, however, that
Acquiror may not effect the settlement of any such claim without the consent of
the Shareholders' Agent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In
the event that the Shareholders' Agent has consented to any such settlement, the
Shareholders' Agent shall have no power or authority to object under Section 8.6
or any other provision of this Article VIII to the amount of any claim by
Acquiror against the Escrow Fund for indemnity with respect to such settlement.

                  8.11 Exclusive Remedy. Following the Effective Time, the
remedies set forth in this Article VIII shall be the sole remedy for a breach of
this agreement by the other party.

                             SHAREHOLDER AGREEMENT

     This Shareholder Agreement (the "Shareholder Agreement") is made and
entered into as of April _, 1999, between Uproar Ltd., a Bermuda corporation
("Acquiro"), and the undersigned shareholders ("Shareholders", and each
individually, "Shareholder") of PrizePoint Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Target").

                                    RECITALS

     WHEREAS, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of
April _, 1999, by and between Acquiror, Uproar Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("Merger Sub"), and Target (such agreement as it may be amended or
restated hereinafter referred to as the "Reorganization Agreement"), the parties
agreed that on the signing of the Reorganization Agreement Target would use its
best efforts to cause Shareholders to execute and deliver a Shareholder
Agreement substantially in the form set forth in an Exhibit to the
Reorganization Agreement;

     WHEREAS, Acquiror has agreed to acquire the outstanding securities of
Target pursuant to a merger of Merger Sub with and into Target (the "Merger")
and pursuant to which each outstanding share of capital stock of Target (the
"Target Capital Stock") will be converted into the right to receive shares of
common stock of Acquiror (the "Acquiror Shares") at the rates set forth in the
Reorganization Agreement (the "Transaction");

     WHEREAS, in order to induce Acquiror to enter into the Transaction, Target
has agreed to solicit the proxy of certain significant shareholders of Target on
behalf of Acquiror, and to cause certain significant shareholders of Target to
execute and deliver voting agreements to Acquiror,

     WHEREAS, each Shareholder is the registered and beneficial owner of such
number of shares of Target Capital Stock as is indicated on the signature page
of this Shareholder Agreement (the "Shares"); and

     WHEREAS, in order to induce Acquiror to enter into the Transaction, each
Shareholder agrees not to transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Shares, or
any other shares of Target Capital Stock acquired by Shareholder hereafter and
prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in Section 1.1 below), and agrees to
vote the Shares and any other such acquired shares of Target Capital Stock so as
to facilitate consummation of the Transaction.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

     1 . Share Ownership and Agreement to Retain Shares.

     1.1 Transfer and Encumbrance.

     (a) Each Shareholder is the beneficial owner of that number of Shares of
Target Capital Stock set forth on the signature page hereto and, except as
otherwise set forth on the signature page hereto, (i) has held such Target
Capital Stock at all times since the date set

<PAGE>

forth on such signature page and (ii) did not acquire any shares of Target
Capital Stock in contemplation of the Merger. These Shares constitute each
Shareholder's entire interest in the outstanding Target Capital Stock. No other
person or entity not a signatory to this Shareholder Agreement has a beneficial
interest in or a right to acquire such Shares or any portion of such Shares
(except, with respect to shareholders which are partnerships, partners of such
shareholders). The Shares are and will be at all times up until the Expiration
Date free and clear of any liens, claims, options, charges or other
encumbrances. As used herein, the term "Expiration Date" shall mean the earlier
to occur of (x) the Effective Time of the Transaction and (y) the termination of
the Reorganization Agreement. Each Shareholder's principal residence or place of
business is set forth on the signature page hereto.

         (b) Each Shareholder agrees not to transfer (except as may be
specifically required by court order or by operation of law), sell, exchange,
pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber the Shares or any New Shares (as
defined below), or to make any offer or agreement relating thereto, at any time
prior to the Expiration Date.

     1.2 New Shares. Each Shareholder agrees that any shares of Target Capital
Stock that Shareholder purchases or with respect to which Shareholder otherwise
acquires beneficial ownership after the date of this Shareholder Agreement and
prior to the Expiration Date ("New Shares") shall be subject to the terms and
conditions of this Shareholder Agreement to the same extent as if they
constituted Shares.

     2.  Agreement to Vote Shares. Prior to the Expiration Date, at every
meeting of the shareholders of Target called with respect to any of the
following, and at every adjournment thereof, and on every action or approval by
written consent of the shareholders of Target with respect to any of the
following, each Shareholder shall vote the Shares and any New Shares (i) in
favor of approval of the Transaction and any matter that could reasonably be
expected to facilitate the Transaction and (ii) against any proposal for any
recapitalization, merger, sale of assets or other business combination (other
than the Transaction) between Target and any person or entity other than
Acquiror.

     3.  Irrevocable Proxy. Each Shareholder hereby agrees to timely deliver to
Acquiror a duly executed proxy in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
"Proxy") with respect to each meeting of shareholders of Target prior to the
Expiration Date, such Proxy to cover the total number of Shares and New Shares
in respect of which Shareholder is entitled to vote at any such meeting. In the
event that any Shareholder is unable to provide any such Proxy in a timely
manner, such Shareholder hereby grants Acquiror a power of attorney to execute
and deliver such Proxy for and on behalf of Shareholder, such power of attorney,
which being coupled with an interest, shall survive any death, disability,
bankruptcy or any other such impediment and shall terminate on the Expiration
Date. Upon the execution of this Shareholder Agreement by the Shareholders, each
Shareholder hereby revokes any and all prior proxies given by the Shareholder
with respect to the Shares and agrees not to grant any subsequent proxies
with respect to the Shares until after the Expiration Date.

     4.  Representations. Warranties and Covenants of Shareholder. Each
Shareholder hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Acquiror as follows:






                                       2


<PAGE>

           (a) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Acquiror Shares being
acquired by such Shareholder in connection with the Merger will be acquired for
investment for such Shareholder's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and
not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and such
Shareholder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in,
or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Shareholder Agreement,
Shareholder further represents that such Shareholder does not have any contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant
participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of
such Acquiror Shares.

           (b) Investment Experience. Such Shareholder has substantial
experience evaluating and investing in securities of companies and acknowledges
that it has the capacity to protect its own interests in connection therewith,
can bear the economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and
experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating
the merits and risks of the investment in the Acquiror Shares. If other than an
individual, such Shareholder also represents it has not been organized for the
purpose of acquiring the Acquiror Shares.

           (c) Accredited Investor. Such Shareholder is and at the Closing (as
defined in the Reorganization Agreement) will be an "accredited investor" within
the meaning of Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Rule 501 of Regulation
D, as presently in effect.

           (d) Restricted Securities. Such Shareholder understands that the
Acquiror Shares are characterized as "restricted securities" under the United
States federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the
Acquiror in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such
laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, such
Shareholder represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 144 (a copy of which is
attached hereto as Appendix A) as presently in effect, and understands the
resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.

           (e) Further Limitations on Disposition. In addition to such further
restrictions that each Shareholder may be subject to pursuant to the Shareholder
Representation Agreement to be executed by such Shareholders pursuant to the
Reorganization Agreement, each Shareholder agrees not to offer, sell, exchange,
transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of any of the Acquiror Shares unless at
that time either:

               (i) such transaction is permitted pursuant to the provisions of
Rule 144 under the Securities Act;

               (ii) counsel representing the undersigned Shareholders,
reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror, shall have advised Acquiror in a written
opinion letter reasonably satisfactory to Acquiror and Acquiror's counsel, and
upon which Acquiror and its counsel may rely, that no registration under the
Securities Act and relevant state securities laws is required in connection with
the proposed sale, transfer or other disposition;

               (iii) a registration statement under the Securities Act (a
"Registration Statement") covering the Acquiror Shares proposed to be sold,
transferred or

                                       3

<PAGE>

otherwise disposed of, describing the manner and terms of the proposed sale,
transfer or other disposition, and containing a current prospectus, is filed
with the SEC and made effective under the Securities Act; or

               (iv) an authorized representative of the SEC shall have rendered
written advice to such undersigned Shareholder (sought by the undersigned
Shareholder or counsel to the undersigned Shareholder, with a copy thereof and
of all other related communications delivered to Acquiror) to the effect that
the SEC will take no action, or that the staff of the SEC will not recommend
that the SEC take action, with respect to the proposed offer, sale, exchange,
transfer, pledge or other disposition if consummated.

           (f) (i) Each undersigned Shareholder will observe and comply with the
Securities Act and the General Rules and Regulations thereunder, as now in
effect and as from time to time amended and including those hereafter enacted or
promulgated, in connection with any offer, sale, exchange, transfer, pledge or
other disposition of the Acquiror Shares or any part thereof.

               (ii) Each undersigned Shareholder undertakes and agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless Acquiror, Target and each of their respective
current and future officers and directors and each person, if any, who now or
hereafter controls or may control Acquiror or Target within the meaning of the
Securities Act (an "Indemnified Person") from and against any and all claims,
demands, actions, causes of action, losses, costs, damages, liabilities and
expenses ("Claims") based upon, arising out of or resulting from any breach or
nonfulfillment of any undertaking, covenant or agreement made herein by such
Shareholder, or caused by or attributable to such Shareholder, or such
Shareholder's agents or employees, or representatives, brokers, dealers and/or
underwriters insofar as they are acting on behalf of and in accordance with the
instruction of or with the knowledge of such Shareholder, in connection with or
relating to any offer, sale, pledge, transfer or other disposition of any of the
Acquiror Shares by or on behalf of such Shareholder, which claim or claims
result from any breach or nonfulfillment as set forth above. The indemnification
set forth herein shall be in addition to any liability that such Shareholder may
otherwise have to the Indemnified Persons.

           (g) Promptly after receiving definitive notice of any Claim in
respect of which an Indemnified Person may seek indemnification under this
Shareholder Agreement, such Indemnified Person shall submit notice thereof to
the Shareholders. The omission by the Indemnified Person so to notify the
undersigned Shareholders of any such Claim shall not relieve the undersigned
Shareholders from any liability the undersigned Shareholders may have hereunder
except to the extent that (A) such liability was caused or increased by such
omission, or (B) the ability of the undersigned Shareholders to reduce or defend
against such liability was adversely affected by such omission. The omission of
the Indemnified Person so to notify the undersigned Shareholders of any such
Claim shall not relieve the undersigned Shareholders from any liability the
undersigned Shareholders may have otherwise than hereunder. The Indemnified
Persons and the undersigned Shareholders shall cooperate with and assist one
another in the defense of any Claim and any action, suit or proceeding arising
in connection therewith.

        (h) Until the Expiration Date, each Shareholder will not (and will use
such Shareholder's reasonable efforts to cause Target, its affiliates, officers,
directors and

                                       4

<PAGE>

employees and any investment banker, attorney, accountant or other agent
retained by such Shareholder or them, not to) directly or indirectly: (i) take
any action to solicit, initiate or encourage any Acquisition Proposal (as
defined below); (ii) initiate any contact with any person in an effort to or
with a view towards soliciting any Acquisition Proposal; (iii) furnish
information concerning Target's business, properties or assets to any
corporation, partnership, person or other entity or group (other than Acquiror,
or any associate, agent or representative of Acquiror) under any circumstances
that could reasonably be expected to relate to an actual or potential
Acquisition Proposal; or (iv) negotiate or enter into discussions or an
agreement with any entity or group with respect of any potential Acquisition
Proposal. In the event the Shareholder shall receive or become aware of any
Acquisition Proposal subsequent to the date hereof, such Shareholder shall
promptly inform Acquiror as to any such matter and the details thereof to the
extent possible without breaching any other agreement to which such Shareholder
is a party or violating its fiduciary duties. For purposes of this Shareholder
Agreement, "Acquisition Proposal" means any bona fide offer or proposal for, or
any indication of interest in, a merger or other business combination involving
Target or any of its subsidiaries or the acquisition of 50% or more of the

           5) Recipient agrees to use the same level of care to prevent
           disclosure or unauthorized use of the received confidential
           information as it exercises in protecting its own information of
           similar nature; and

           6) Recipient agrees that all confidential information is the property
           of Discloser and agrees promptly to return to Disclosure, upon

           under this Agreement shall not apply to any information which:

                a. as shown by reasonably-documented proof, was in Recipient's
                possession prior to receipt thereof from Discloser;

                b. as shown by reasonably-documented proof, is developed by

                e. Recipient receives in good faith from a third party not
                subject to a confidentiality obligation therefor to Discloser;
                or

                f. Recipient is required to produce by a judicial order or
                decree by a governmental law or regulation; however, Recipient

                against public disclosure.

           8) No license to a party, under any trademark, patent, copyright,
           mask work protection right or any other intellectual property right,
           is either granted or implied by the conveying of information to

           non-infringement of trademarks, patents, copyrights, mask protection
           rights or any other intellectual property rights, or other rights of
           third persons.

           9) Neither this agreement nor the disclosure or receipt of

           affiliated companies with respect to the present or future marketing
           of any product or service.

        This Agreement shall terminate one year from the date of the latest
signature below, unless sooner terminated in writing by Discloser or Recipient,

confidential information disclosed to Recipient prior to such termination shall
survive such termination until the end of the period set forth in the above

<PAGE>

                      SHAREHOLDER REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT

        THIS SHAREHOLDER REPRESENTATION AGREEMENT (the "Shareholder's
Agreement") is entered into as of the __ day of ___, 1999 between Uproar Ltd., a
Bermuda corporation ("Acquiror"), and the undersigned shareholder (the
"Shareholder") of Prize Point Entertainment, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Target").

                                    RECITALS

        A. Target, Uproar Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Merger
Sub"), and Acquiror have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization,
dated as of April _, 1999 (the "Reorganization Agreement"), pursuant to which
Merger Sub will merge with and into Target (the "Merger").

        B. Upon the consummation of the Merger and in connection therewith,
the undersigned Shareholder will become the owner of shares of common stock of
Acquiror (the "Acquiror Shares").

        C. Pursuant to the Reorganization Agreement, an Escrow Agreement (the
"Escrow Agreement"), has been entered into between the Acquiror and an agent
of the former shareholders of Target ("Shareholders' Agent");

        D. Concurrent with the execution of the Reorganization Agreement and as
an inducement to Acquiror to enter into the Reorganization Agreement, certain of
Target's shareholders have entered into an agreement, to, among other things,
vote the shares of capital stock of Target ("Target Capital Stock") owned by
such person to approve the Merger and against any competing proposals.

        E. The undersigned Shareholder understands and acknowledges that Target,
Acquiror and their respective shareholders, as well as legal counsel to Target
and Acquiror, are entitled to rely on (x) the truth and accuracy of the
undersigned Shareholder's representations contained herein and (y) the
undersigned Shareholder's performance of the obligations set forth herein.

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual
agreements, provisions and covenants set forth in the Reorganization Agreement
and in this Shareholder's Agreement, it is hereby agreed as follows:

        1. Share Ownership and Agreement to Retain Shares.

        1.1 Transfer and Encumbrance.

            (a) Immediately prior to the Effective Time (as defined in the
Merger Agreement), Shareholder was the beneficial owner of that number of shares
of Target Capital Stock set forth on the signature page hereto (the "Shares")
and, except as otherwise set forth on the signature page hereto, (i) held such
Target Capital Stock at all times since the date set forth on such signature
page, and (ii) did not acquire any shares of Target Capital Stock in
contemplation of the Merger.  These Shares constituted the Shareholder's  entire
interest in the outstanding  Target Capital Stock. No other person or entity not
a signatory to this Agreement had as of the Effective  Time, or has a beneficial
interest  in or a right to acquire  such  Shares or any  portion of such  Shares
(except,  with respect to shareholders which are partnerships,  partners of such
shareholders). The Shares were at all times up until the Effective Time free and
clear of any liens, claims, options, charges or other encumbrances.

<PAGE>

            (b) In addition to any other restrictions set forth in this
Shareholder's Agreement, Shareholder agrees not to transfer (except as may be
specifically required by court order or by operation of law), sell, exchange,
pledge or otherwise dispose of or encumber the shares of Acquiror, shares
received by Shareholder pursuant to the Merger (as defined below), or to make
any offer or agreement relating thereto, at any time prior to the 180th day
following the first day Acquiror Shares are listed for trading on EASDAQ if
any shareholders of Acquiror are subject to the same restriction pursuant to any
understanding arrangement relating to such EASDAQ listing, except such
restriction shall not prohibit transfers by operations of law, or bona fide
gifts to family members if Shareholder, to an affiliate of Shareholder (as such
term is defined in Section 1.10 of the Merger Agreement), or to trusts
established for the benefit of Shareholder's family members, so long as the
transferees remain subject to the restrictions set forth herein.

            (c) [FOR OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND 5% STOCKHOLDERS OF TARGET:] [The
undersigned Stockholder will not sell, exchange, transfer pledge, dispose of or
otherwise reduce the undersigned Stockholder's risk relative to the Acquiror
Shares or any part thereof until such time after the Effective Time of the
Merger as financial results covering at least thirty (30) days of the combined
operations of Acquiror and Target after the Effective Time of the Merger have
been, within the meaning of said Release No. 130, filed by Acquiror with the
SEC or published by Acquiror in an Annual Report on Form 10-K, a Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q, a Current Report on Form 8-K, a quarterly earnings report,
a press release or other public issuance that includes combined sales and net
income of Target and Acquiror. Acquiror agrees to make such filing or
publication as soon as practicable and to notify the undersigned Stockholder
promptly upon making such filing or publication. The undersigned has not, during
the thirty (30) day period prior to the Effective Time of the Merger, sold,
exchanged, transferred, pledged, disposed of or otherwise reduced the
undersigned Stockholder's risk relative to the Acquiror Shares or any part
thereof (including any disposition, within such period, of Stockholder's shares
of, or options to purchase, Target Capital Stock.]

        2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Shareholder.
Shareholder hereby represents, warrants and covenants to Acquiror as follows:

            (a) Purchase Entirely for Own Account. The Acquiror Shares being
acquired by such Shareholder pursuant to the Merger will be acquired for
investment for such Shareholder's own account, not as a nominee or agent, and
not with a view to the resale or distribution of any part thereof, and such
Shareholder has no present intention of selling, granting any participation in,
or otherwise distributing the same. By executing this Agreement, Shareholder
further represents that such Shareholder does not have any contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement with any person to sell, transfer or grant
participations to such person or to any third person, with respect to any of
such Acquiror Shares.

                                       2
<PAGE>

            (b) Investment Experience. Such Shareholder has substantial
experience evaluating and investing in securities of companies and acknowledges
that it has the capacity to protect its own interests in connection therewith,
can bear the economic risk of its investment and has such knowledge and
experience in financial or business matters that it is capable of evaluating the
merits and risks of the investment in the Acquiror Shares. If other than an
individual, such Shareholder also represents it has not been organized for the
purpose of acquiring the Acquiror Shares.

            (c) Accredited Investor/Suitability Questionnaire. Such Shareholder
is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") Rule 501 of Regulation D, as presently in effect, (ii) has
delivered an Investor Suitability Questionnaire to Acquiror describing
Shareholder's ability to evaluate an investment in Acquiror Shares or (iii) has
appointed a "purchaser representative" as defined in SEC Rule 501 of Regulation
D to evaluate Shareholder's investment in Acquiror Shares.

            (d) Restricted Securities. Such Shareholder understands that the
Acquiror Shares are characterized as "restricted securities" under the United
States federal securities laws inasmuch as they are being acquired from the
Acquiror in a transaction not involving a public offering and that under such
laws and applicable regulations such securities may be resold without
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, such
Shareholder represents that it is familiar with SEC Rule 145 (a copy of which is

          Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization
              by and between Uproar Ltd., Uproar Acquisition, Inc.
         and PrizePoint Entertainment Corporation dated April 29, 1999

        THIS AMENDMENT NUMBER 1 (the "Amendment") to the AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF
REORGANIZATION between UPROAR LTD. ("Acquiror") UPROAR ACQUISITION, INC.
("Acquisition Sub") and PRIZEPOINT ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION, ("Target"), dated
as of April 29, 1999, (the "Agreement") is hereby entered into as of May 6,
1999, by agreement of the parties in the manner set forth below. Any capitalized
term that is not defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such term in
the Agreement. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of the Agreement, in the
case of inconsistency, the terms of this Amendment shall prevail over other
contract terms included in the Agreement.

                                    RECITALS

        WHEREAS, the parties have entered into the Agreement, and

        WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Agreement.

        NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and mutual
promises set forth below, and for other good and valuable consideration, the
receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, both parties to this Amendment mutually
agree to amend the Agreement as follows:

1. Section 5.11(a). Section 5.11(a) is deleted and replaced with the following:

           Assumption of Options. At the Effective Time, the Target Stock Option
        Plan, and each outstanding option to purchase shares of Target Common
        Stock under the Target Stock Option Plan (whether vested or unvested and
        whether exercisable or non-exercisable) will be assumed by Acquiror.
        Schedule 5.11 hereto sets forth a true and complete list as of the date
        hereof of all holders of outstanding options under the Target Stock
        Option Plan including the number of shares of Target Capital Stock
        subject to each such option, the exercise or vesting schedule, the
        exercise price per share and the term of each such option. On the
        Closing Date, Target shall deliver to Acquiror an updated Schedule 5.11
        hereto current as of such date. Each such option so assumed by Acquiror
        under this Agreement shall continue to have, and be subject to, the same
        terms and conditions set forth in the Target Stock Option Plan and the
        applicable stock option agreement immediately prior to the Effective
        Time, except that (i) such option will be exercisable for that number of
        whole shares of Acquiror Common Stock equal to the product of the number
        of shares of Target Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of
        such option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the
        Exchange Ratio and rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of
        Acquiror Common Stock, (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares
        of Acquiror Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed option
        will be equal to the exercise price per share of Target Common Stock
        prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio, (iii) such
        newly granted options shall be deemed substituted for the options
        granted under the Target Stock Option Plan and (iv) prior to the
        issuance of Acquiror Common Stock upon exercise of any such option, the
        holder of such option shall execute a Shareholder Representation
        Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto. It is the
        intention of the parties that the options so assumed by Acquiror
        qualify, to the maximum extent permissible, following the Effective Time
        as incentive stock options as defined in Section 422 of the Code to the
        extent such options qualified as incentive stock options prior to the
        Effective Time. Following the Effective Time, Acquiror will issue to
        each person who, immediately prior to the Effective Time was a holder of
        an outstanding option under the Target Stock Option Plan a document in
        form and substance satisfactory to Target evidencing the foregoing
        assumption and substitution of such option by Acquiror.

<PAGE>

2. Section 5.22 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following
   paragraph:

                  5.22 Qualification of Tax Payment Shares. Acquiror shall use
        its best efforts to qualify the Tax Payment Shares (as defined in the
        Shareholder Representation Agreement) for trading on EASDAQ or another
        "Designated Offshore Securities Market" (as defined in Rule 902 of
        Regulation S under the Securities Act). Acquiror agrees to take all such
        other steps as may be necessary to permit the Target Stockholders (as
        defined below) to sell the Tax Payment Shares in accordance with all
        non-United States law or regulation applicable to the sale of the Tax
        Payment Shares outside of the United States.

3. Exhibit C is hereby amended and restated to read as set forth in Attachment A
   hereto.

4. Section 1.7 (a) Section 13(a) is deleted and replaced with the following:

                   (a) Exchange Agent. Acquiror shall act as its own exchange
        agent (the "Exchange Agent") in the Merger.

5. This Amendment shall be deemed an amendment to the Agreement and shall become
   effective upon the execution of Acquiror, Acquisition Sub and Target.

6. Except as expressly amended pursuant this Amendment, the Agreement shall
   continue in full force and effect.

7. This Amendment shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New
   York, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

8. This Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be
   enforceable against the Party actually executing such counterpart, and which
   together shall constitute one instrument.

                  (remainder of page intentionally left blank)

              Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law





<PAGE>

                           DELAWARE APPRAISAL RIGHTS

ss. 262. Appraisal rights.

(a) Any stockholder of a corporation of this State who holds shares of stock on
the date of the making of a demand pursuant to subsection (d) of this section
with respect to such shares, who continuously holds such shares through the
effective date of the merger or consolidation, who has otherwise complied with
subsection (d) of this section and who has neither voted in favor of the merger
or consolidation nor consented thereto in writing pursuant to ss. 228 of this
title shall be entitled to an appraisal by the Court of Chancery of the fair
value of the stockholder's shares of stock under the circumstances described in
subsections (b) and (c) of this section.

        As used in this section, the word "stockholder" means a holder of record
of stock in a stock corporation and also a member of record of a nonstock
corporation; the words "stock" and "share" mean and include what is ordinarily
meant by those words and also membership or membership interest of a member of a
nonstock corporation; and the words "depository receipt" mean a receipt or other
instrument issued by a depository representing an interest in one or more
shares, or fractions thereof, solely of stock of a corporation, which stock is
deposited with the depository.

(b) Appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of any class or series of
stock of a constituent corporation in a merger or consolidation to be effected
pursuant to ss. 251 (other than a merger effected pursuant to ss. 251(g) of this
title), ss. 252, ss. 254, ss. 257, ss. 258, ss. 263 or ss. 264 of this title:

        (1) Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this section shall
        be available for the shares of any class or series of stock, which
        stock, or depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date
        fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to
        vote at the meeting of stockholders to act upon the agreement of merger
        or consolidation, were either
            (i) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a
            national market system security on an interdealer quotation system
            by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or
            (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders; and further provided
            that no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares of stock
            of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did
            not require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the
            surviving corporation as provided in subsection (f) of ss. 251 of
            this title.
        (2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subsection, appraisal rights
        under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or
        series of stock of a constituent corporation if the holders thereof are
        required by the terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation
        pursuant to ss. 251, 252, 254, 257, 258, 263 and 264 of this title to
        accept for such stock anything except:

<PAGE>

            a. Shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from
            such merger or consolidation, or depository receipts in respect
            thereof;
            b. Shares of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts
            in respect thereof, which shares of stock (or depository receipts in
            respect thereof)or depository receipts at the effective date of the
            merger or consolidation will be either listed on a national
            securities exchange or designated as a national market system
            security on an interdealer quotation system by the National
            Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by more
            than 2,000 holders;
            c. Cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository
            receipts described in the foregoing subparagraphs a. and b. of this
            paragraph; or
            d. Any combination of the shares of stock, depository receipts and
            cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts
            described in the foregoing subparagraphs a., b. and c. of this
            paragraph.

        (3) In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware corporation
        party to a merger effected under ss. 253 of this title is not owned by
        the parent corporation immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights
        shall be available for the shares of the subsidiary Delaware
        corporation.

(c) Any corporation may provide in its certificate of incorporation that
appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any
class or series of its stock as a result of an amendment to its certificate of
incorporation, any merger or consolidation in which the corporation is a
constituent corporation or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
the corporation. If the certificate of incorporation contains such a provision,
the procedures of this section, including those set forth in subsections (d) and
(e) of this section, shall apply as nearly as is practicable.

(d) Appraisal rights, shall be perfected as follows:


        (1) If a proposed merger or consolidation for which appraisal rights are
        provided under this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting
        of stockholders, the corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the
        meeting, shall notify each of its stockholders who was such on the
        record date for such meeting with respect to shares for which appraisal
        rights are available pursuant to subsections (b) or (c) hereof that
        appraisal rights are available for any or all of the shares of the
        constituent corporations, and shall include in such notice a copy of
        this section. Each stockholder electing to demand the appraisal of such
        stockholder's shares shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking
        of the vote on the merger or consolidation, a written demand for
        appraisal of such stockholder's shares. Such demand will be sufficient
        if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the
        stockholder and that'the stockholder intends thereby to demand the
        appraisal of such stockholder's shares. A proxy or vote against the
        merger or consolidation shall not constitute such a demand. A
        stockholder electing to take such action must do so by a separate
        written demand as herein provided. Within 10 days after the effective
        date of such merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting
        corporation shall notify each stockholder of each constituent
        corporation who has complied with this subsection and has not voted in

<PAGE>

        favor of or consented to the merger or consolidation of the date that
        the merger or consolidation has become effective; or

        (2) If the merger or consolidation was approved pursuant to ss. 228 or
        ss. 253 of this title, each constituent corporation, either before the
        effective date of the merger or consolidation or within ten days
        thereafter, shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of
        stock of such constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal
        rights of the approval of the merger or consolidation and that appraisal
        rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of
        stock of such constituent corporation, and shall include in such notice
        a copy of this section; provided that, if the notice is given on or
        after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, such notice
        shall be given by the surviving or resulting corporation to all such
        holders of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation
        that are entitled to appraisal rights. Such notice may, and, if given on
        or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, shall, also
        notify such stockholders of the effective date of the merger or
        consolidation. Any stockholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within
        20 days after the date of mailing of such notice, demand in writing from
        the surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of such holder's
        shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the
        corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder
        intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such holder's shares. If such
        notice did not notify stockholders of the effective date of the merger
        or consolidation, either

            (i) each such constituent corporation shall send a second notice
        before the effective date of the merger or consolidation notifying each
        of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent
        corporation that are entitled to appraisal rights of the effective date
        of the merger or consolidation or

            (ii) the surviving or resulting corporation shall send such a second

        notice to all such holders on or within 10 days after such effective
        date; provided, however, that if such second notice is sent more than 20
        days following the sending of the first notice, such second notice need
        only be sent to each stockholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and
        who has demanded appraisal of such holder's shares in accordance with
        this subsection. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant secretary or
        of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required to give
        either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of
        fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes
        of determining the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each
        constituent corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be
        not more than 10 days prior to the date the notice is given, provided,
        that if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger
        or consolidation, the record date shall be such effective date. If no
        record date is fixed and the notice is given prior to the effective
        date, the record date shall be the close of business on the day next
        preceding the day on which the notice is given.

(e) Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the
surviving or resulting corporation or any stockholder who has complied with
subsections (a) and (d) hereof and who is otherwise entitled to appraisal
rights, may file a petition in the Court of Chancery demanding a determination

<PAGE>

of the value of the stock of all such stockholders. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, at any time within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or
consolidation, any stockholder shall have the right to withdraw such
stockholder's demand for appraisal and to accept the terms offered upon the
merger or consolidation. Within 120 days after the effective date of the merger
or consolidation, any stockholder who has complied with the requirements of
subsections (a) and (d) hereof, upon written request, shall be entitled to
receive from the corporation surviving the merger or resulting from the
consolidation a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares not
voted in favor of the merger or consolidation and with respect to which demands
for appraisal have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such
shares. Such written statement shall be mailed to the stockholder within 10 days
after such stockholder's written request for such a statement is received by the
surviving or resulting corporation or within 10 days after expiration of the
period for delivery of demands for appraisal under subsection (d) hereof,
whichever is later.

(f) Upon the filing of any such petition by a stockholder, service of a copy
thereof shall be made upon the surviving or resulting corporation, which shall
within 20 days after such service file in the office of the Register in Chancery
in which the petition was filed a duly verified list containing the names and
addresses of all stockholders who have demanded payment for their shares and
with whom agreements as to the value of their shares have not been reached by
the surviving or resulting corporation. If the petition shall be filed by the
surviving or resulting corporation, the petition shall be accompanied by such a
duly verified list. The Register in Chancery, if so ordered by the Court, shall
give notice of the time and place fixed for the hearing of such petition by
registered or certified mail to the surviving or resulting corporation and to
the stockholders shown on the list at the addresses therein stated. Such notice
shall also be given by 1 or more publications at least 1 week before the day of
the hearing, in a newspaper of general circulation published in the City of
Wilmington, Delaware or such publication as the Court deems advisable. The forms
of the notices by mail and by publication shall be approved by the Court, and
the costs thereof shall be borne by the surviving or resulting corporation.

(g) At the hearing on such petition, the Court shall determine the stockholders
who have complied with this section and who have become entitled to appraisal
rights. The Court may require the stockholders who have demanded an appraisal
for their shares and who hold stock represented by certificates to submit their
certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery for notation thereon of the
pendency of the appraisal proceedings; and if any stockholder fails to comply
with such direction, the Court may dismiss the proceedings as to such
stockholder.

(h) After determining the stockholders entitled to an appraisal, the Court shall
appraise the shares, determining their fair value exclusive of any element of
value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger or
consolidation, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, to be paid upon
the amount determined to be the fair value. In determining such fair value, the
Court shall take into account all relevant factors. In determining the fair rate
of interest, the Court may consider all relevant factors, including the rate of
interest which the surviving or resulting corporation would have had to pay to
borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. Upon application by the
surviving or resulting corporation or by any stockholder entitled to participate
in the appraisal proceeding, the Court may, in its discretion, permit discovery
or other pretrial proceedings and may proceed to trial upon the appraisal prior
to the final determination of the stockholder entitled to an appraisal. Any
stockholder whose name appears on the list filed by the surviving or resulting
corporation pursuant to subsection (f) of this section and who has submitted

<PAGE>

such stockholder's certificates of stock to the Register in Chancery, if such
is required, may participate fully in all proceedings until it is finally
determined that such stockholder is not entitled to appraisal rights under this
section.

(i) The Court shall direct the payment of the fair value of the shares, together
with interest, if any, by the surviving or resulting corporation to the
stockholders entitled thereto. Interest may be simple or compound, as the Court
may direct. Payment shall be so made to each such stockholder, in the case of
holders of uncertificated stock forthwith, and the case of holders of shares
represented by certificates upon the surrender to the corporation of the
certificates representing such stock. The Court's decree may be enforced as
other decrees in the Court of Chancery may be enforced, whether such surviving
or resulting corporation be a corporation of this State or of any state.

(j) The costs of the proceeding may be determined by the Court and taxed upon
the parties as the Court deems equitable in the circumstances. Upon application
of a stockholder, the Court may order all or a portion of the expenses incurred
by any stockholder in connection with the appraisal proceeding, including,
without limitation, reasonable attorney's fees and the fees and expenses of
experts, to be charged pro rata against the value of all the shares entitled to
an appraisal.

(k) From and after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, no
stockholder who has demanded appraisal rights as provided in subsection (d) of
this section shall be entitled to vote such stock for any purpose or to receive
payment of dividends or other distributions on the stock (except dividends or
other distributions payable to stockholders of record at a date which is prior
to the effective date of the merger or consolidation); provided, however, that
if no petition for an appraisal shall be filed within the time provided in
subsection (e) of this section, or if such stockholder shall deliver to the
surviving or resulting corporation a written withdrawal of such stockholder's
demand for an appraisal and an acceptance of the merger or consolidation, either
within 60 days after the effective date of the merger or consolidation as
provided in subsection (e) of this section or thereafter with the written
approval of the corporation, then the right of such stockholder to an appraisal
shall cease. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no appraisal proceeding in the Court
of Chancery shall be dismissed as to any stockholder without the approval of the
Court, and such approval may be conditioned upon such terms as the Court deems
just.

(1) The shares of the surviving or resulting corporation to which the shares of
such objecting Shareholders would have been converted had they assented to the
merger or consolidation shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares
of the surviving or resulting corporation.

                      PRIZEPOINT ENTERTAINMENT CORPORATION

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                DECEMBER 31, 1998

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF
   SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization

     PrizePoint Entertainment Corporation ("PrizePoint" or the "Company") was
formed as a Delaware corporation on March 4, 1998. The Company is engaged in the
marketing and promotion forum of games of chance and advertising via its
Internet web site. Individuals or "players" can log on to the Company's site and
earn points for participating in the various product and trivia promotions
offered in the Company's site. Individuals can redeem these points for various
awards. Sponsors provide some of the awards and gifts for the winning
participants in exchange for advertising services.

Use of Estimates

     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue Recognition

     Revenues are derived from the sale of advertising on the Company's web
site. Advertising revenues are recognized in the period the advertisement is
displayed provided that no significant Company obligations remain and collection
of the resulting receivable is probable. Company obligations typically include
guarantees of a minimum number of "impressions", or number of times that any
advertisement is viewed by users on the Company's web sites. To the extent
minimum guaranteed impressions are not met, the Company defers recognition of
the corresponding revenues until guaranteed impression levels are achieved.

Direct Costs

     Direct costs consist primarily of cash prizes paid to participants, payroll
and related expenses for personnel, systems consultants and systems and
telecommunications infrastructures for web site development. To date, all direct
costs have been expensed as incurred.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

     The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

<PAGE>

Property and Equipment, net

     Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated on the
straight-line method over their estimated useful lives, ranging from three to
five years.

     Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred.

Accounting for Long-Lived Assets

     The Company accounts for long-lived assets under the provisions of
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 121, "Accounting for
the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed
Of." This statement establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for
the impairment of long-lived assets and for long-lived assets to be disposed of.
Management has performed a review of all long-lived assets and has determined
that no impairment of the respective carrying value has occurred as of December
31, 1998.

Income Taxes

     The Company accounts for its income taxes in accordance with SFAS No. 109,
"Accounting for Income Taxes," which requires recognition of deferred tax
liabilities and assets for the estimated future tax effects of events that have
been recognized in the financial statements or income tax returns. Under this
method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on differences
between the financial accounting and income tax bases of assets and liabilities,
and the use of carryforwards, if any, using enacted tax rates in effect for the
years in which the differences and carryforwards are expected to reverse and be
utilized. Any deferred assets have been reserved for their full value until the
future realizability can be determined.

Stock-Based Compensation

     The Company accounts for its employee stock option plans in accordance with
the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," and related interpretations.
Compensation expense related to employee stock options is recorded only if, on
the date of grant, the fair value of the underlying stock exceeds the exercise
price. The Company adopted the disclosure-only requirements of SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," which allows entities to continue to
apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 for transactions with employees and
to provide pro forma net income (loss) and pro forma earnings per share
disclosures (Note 8) for employee stock options as if the fair value based
method of accounting in SFAS No. 123 had been applied to these transactions.

     The Company accounts for non-employee stock-based awards in which goods or
services are the consideration received for the equity instruments issued based
on the fair value of the consideration received or the fair value of the equity
instrument issued, whichever is more readily determinable.


                                      -2-
<PAGE>

Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

     The Company accounts for net loss per common share in accordance with the
provisions of SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." In accordance with SFAS No.
128, basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding and diluted earnings per
share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number
of common shares and dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding during the
period. Common equivalent shares have been excluded from the calculation of
diluted earnings per share, as their effect is anti-dilutive.

Business and Credit Concentrations

     Financial instruments, which subject the Company to concentrations of
credit risk, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses. The carrying amounts of these
instruments approximate fair value. The carrying amount of the Company's capital
leases approximate the fair value of these instruments based upon management's
best estimate of interest rates.

     The Company maintains cash with a domestic financial institution. The
Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of this
institution From time to time, the Company's cash balances with this financial
institution may exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

     The unaudited consolidated financial information included herein for the
three months ended March 31, 1999, has been prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial statements. In
the opinion of the Company, these unaudited financial statements, reflect all
adjustments necessary, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, for a fair
presentation of such data on a basis consistent with that of the audited data
presented herein. The results of operations for interim periods are not
necessarily indicative of the results expected for a full year.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

     In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued SFAS
No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income." This statement establishes standards
for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenues,
expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial
statements. The Company adopted this statement in 1998. The adoption of this
statement did not have an impact on the Company's financial condition or results
of operations. Accordingly, the Company's comprehensive net loss is equal to its
net loss for the period from inception (March 4, 1998) to December 31, 1998.

     Additionally, in June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, "Disclosures
About Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. This statement
establishes standards for the way the public business enterprises report
information about operating segments in annual financial statements and requires
that those enterprises report selected information about operating segments in
interim financial reports issued to shareholders. The Company adopted this
statement in 1998. In the initial year of application, comparative information
for earlier years must be restated. Management has determined that it does not
have any separately reportable business segments.

     April 1998, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued
Statement of Position 98-1, "Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software
Developed or Obtained for Internal Use" ("SOP 98-1"), which provides guidance
for determining whether computer software is internal-use software and on
accounting for the proceeds of computer software originally developed or
obtained for internal use and then subsequently sold to the public. It also
provides guidance on capitalization of the costs incurred for computer software
developed or obtained for internal use. SOP 98-1 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 31, 1998. The Company has expensed all software
development costs and does not expect the adoption of SOP 98-1 to have a
material effect on its financial statements.

4. INCOME TAXES

     No provision for U.S. federal or state income taxes has been recorded for
the period from inception (March 4, 1998) to December 31, 1998 as the Company
has incurred an operating loss.

     Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences
between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting
purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes. Significant components of
the Company's deferred tax assets for federal and state income taxes at
December 31, 1998 are as follows:


        Deferred tax assets, net:
          Net operating loss carryforwards    $ 493,334
          Other                                   5,000
                                              ---------
                                                498,334
       Less Valuation allowance                (498,334)
                                              ---------
              Deferred tax assets, net        $      --
                                              =========

     Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon future earnings, if
any. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred
tax assets since management believes that it is


                                      -4-
<PAGE>

not more likely than not that these assets will be realized. No income tax
benefit has been recorded for the period from inception (March 4, 1998) to
December 31, 1998 as a result of the valuation allowance.

     As of December 31, 1998, the Company had net operating loss carryforwards
for federal income tax purposes of approximately $1,229,000. There can be no
assurance that the Company will realize the benefit of the net operating loss
carryforwards. The federal net operating loss carryforwards are available to
offset future taxable income and expire in 2019 if not utilized.

5. CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS

     At December 31, 1998 the Company was committed under a capital lease
agreement for office equipment. The asset and liability under the capital lease
is recorded at the lower of the present value of minimum lease payments or the
fair market value of the asset. The interest rate on the capital lease was
approximately 1% at December 31, 1998.

Future minimum payments under the capital lease agreements are as follows:

       Year ending December 31:
       1999                                $ 28,308

Advertising and Sponsorship Contracts

     The Company entered into several advertising and sponsorship agreements
with third parties, with terms ranging from one to six months whereby the
Company provides advertising in exchange for cash payments or goods. The goods
are used as awards for winning participants in the Company's online games and
sweepstakes. No revenue was earned on such contracts for the year ended December
31, 1998.

8. STOCK OPTIONS

     On April 1, 1998, in order to promote the interests of the Company and
retain persons necessary for the success of the Company, the Company adopted its
1998 Stock Option Plan ("Option Plan") covering up to 150,000 shares, pursuant
to which employees (including officers), directors and independent contractors
of the Company and its present or future subsidiaries and affiliates are
eligible to receive incentive and/or nonstatutory stock options. The Option
Plan, which expires within ten years, will be administered by the Plan
Administrator. The selection of participants, allotment of units, determination
of price and other conditions relating to the purchase of options will be
determined by the Plan Administrator. Options granted under the Option Plan are
exercisable for a period of up to 10 years from the date of grant at an exercise
price, which may be less than, equal to or greater than the fair market value
per unit on the date of the grant. Incentive Options, however, may only be
granted to employees, the exercise price per share may not be less than 100% of
the fair market value per share of common stock on the option grant date, and
for a stockholder owning more than 10% of the outstanding common stock, its
exercise price may not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the common
stock on the date of the grant

     Pursuant to SFAS No. 123, the Company has elected to account for its Option
Plan under APB Opinion No. 25, under which no compensation expense is recognized
for unit option awards granted at or above fair market value. In 1998, the
Company granted 95,000 incentive stock options to various employees. The option
exercise price equals the stock's fair market value at the grant date, and the
options are exercisable over a four-year period, with 25% of options granted
becoming exercisable on the one-year anniversary of the grant date and the
remaining options becoming exercisable at the rate of 1/48 at the end of each
month thereafter. All options will terminate no later than 10 years from the
date of grant. Under SFAS No. 123, compensation cost is measured at the grant
date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized over the service (or
vesting) period. For the year ended December 31, 1998, the compensation cost for
this plan determined in accordance with SFAS No. 123, net of compensation
expense recognized under APB No. 25, is an immaterial amount. As such the
Company's pro-forma net loss has not been presented.
