not be reproduced, summarized, described or referred to or given to any other
person or otherwise made public without Gerard Klauer's prior written consent
unless subpoenaed to be disclosed in a legal proceeding, provided Gerard Klauer
is given prior written notice in advance of such disclosure.  If the Opinion is
included in a proxy statement, the Opinion letter will be reproduced in full,
and any description of or reference to Gerard Klauer or summary of the Opinion
will be in a form acceptable to Gerard Klauer and its counsel.

     Each of Palisades and the Company understand and agree that, in soliciting
offers to purchase Securities pursuant to this Agreement and in assuming its
other obligations hereunder, GKM is acting solely as agent and not as principal,
and that, except as otherwise expressly agreed in writing, GKM's responsibility
in respect of its engagement hereunder is limited to a "best efforts" basis in
placing the Securities, with no understanding, expressed or implied, on GKM's
part of a commitment to underwrite, purchase or place the Securities or any
other securities of the Company.

     GKM agrees that it may not bind or obligate the Company to sell the
Securities.  The Company is not obligated or required to accept any offer to
purchase Securities by any prospective investor identified by GKM, and the
Company may refuse in its sole discretion to sell any Securities to such
prospective investor without any liability to GKM.  If the Company should fail
to deliver Securities to a purchaser whose offer the Company has accepted by
execution of a subscription agreement in respect thereof, the Company (i) shall
hold GKM harmless against loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of
such failure by the Company and (ii) shall pay to GKM any fee to which GKM would
be entitled hereunder in connection with such sale as if such sale had been
consummated.

     During the Authorization Period, Palisades and the Company shall be
prohibited from (i) directly or indirectly offering any of the Securities (or
securities substantially similar to the Securities) for sale to, or soliciting
any offer to purchase any of the Securities from, or otherwise contacting,
approaching or negotiating with respect thereto with, any person, (ii)
authorizing anyone other than GKM to act on its behalf to place the Securities
(or securities substantially similar to the Securities), or (iii) having any
discussions or negotiations with any person other than representatives from GKM
with respect to engaging such person (or entity represented by such person) as a
finder, broker, dealer or financial advisor in connection with the sale by the
Company of any securities.  The Company shall promptly refer to GKM all offers,
inquiries and proposals relating to any placement of the Securities made to the
Company at any time during the Authorization Period.

    It is understood that GKM is being engaged hereunder solely to provide the
services described in this Agreement and that GKM is not acting as an agent or
fiduciary of, and shall have no duties or liabilities to, the equity holders of
Palisades or Company or any third party in connection with its engagement
hereunder.

     2.   Authorization Period.  GKM's engagement hereunder shall become
          --------------------
          effective on the date hereof and, unless extended in writing by
Palisades or the Company and GKM, shall expire on the earlier of (i) the final
closing date of the Private Placement, and (ii) September 30, 1999 (in either
case, the "Termination Date"; the period from the date hereof through the
Termination Date being hereinafter referred to as the "Authorization Period").

    3.  Offering Documents.  GKM shall prepare a Confidential Offering
        ------------------
Memorandum, and such amendments or supplements to each as GKM may reasonably
deem to be necessary, to effectuate the sale of the Securities (the Confidential
Offering Memorandum, and any such amendments or supplements, are collectively
referred to herein as the "Offering Materials").  The Company shall cooperate
with, and assist, GKM in the preparation of the Offering Materials, and prior to
any distribution thereof by GKM, the Offering Materials shall be subject to the
Company's review and approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld
or delayed.  The Company authorizes GKM to transmit the Offering Materials to
potential purchasers of the Securities, and shall furnish to GKM copies of the
Offering Materials in such quantities as GKM may from time to time request.  The
Company shall prepare forms of purchase agreements or subscription agreements
containing terms and conditions customary for private placement transactions, to
be entered into by the Company and each purchaser of Securities, which forms
shall be provided to offerees only upon the review and approval of both the
Company and GKM.

      4.   Compensation.
           ------------

         (a) As cash compensation for GKM's services hereunder, the Company
shall pay GKM the fees set forth in Annex A hereto.

         (b) On the date of the CD Closing, the Company shall issue (and
Palisades shall cause the Company to issue) to GKM warrants to purchase 300,000
shares of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share (the "Retention
Warrants"), assuming that the pre-money valuation of the Company is not less
than $37.5 million.  In
<PAGE>

Entertainment Universe, Inc.
February 24, 1999
Page 6

the event the Securities are issued at a pre-money valuation less than $37.5
million, the exercise price shall be proportionately and equitably adjusted.
The Retention Warrants shall be immediately exercisable and shall expire five
years after issuance.  The Company shall file a registration statement with
respect to the common stock underlying the Retention Warrants within six months
following the CD closing.  On each closing date of the sale of Securities, the
Company shall issue to GKM warrants (the "Financing Warrants") to purchase
shares of common stock of the Company in an amount equal to 10% of the amount of
common stock (assuming full conversion or exchange of all Securities convertible
or exchangeable into or for common stock) issued by the Company on such closing
date, at an exercise price equal to the average of ( i) the lowest price at
which any shares of common stock are sold in the Private Placement (or in the
event no shares are sold, the lowest price at which Securities are convertible
into or exchangeable for common stock) and (ii) the lowest price at which any
shares of common stock are sold in the anticipated Rule 504 offering pursuant to
Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended; provided
that the number of Financing Warrants to be issued shall be reduced by one-half
in respect of any Securities sold to any person listed in Amex A on or prior to
March 31, 1999.  The Financing Warrants shall not be exercisable until one year
after the date of issuance and shall expire five years after issuance.  The
Retention Warrants and the Financing Warrants shall include customary anti-
dilution protection.  The Retention Warrants and the Financing Warrants shall
also include provisions for tag-along rights with respect to the underlying
common stock, one demand registration right exercisable following the first
anniversary of the CD Closing, and unlimited piggyback registration rights
customary in transactions of this type.

         (c) Regardless of whether the sale of any Securities is consummated,
Palisades will pay or cause the Company to pay the following expenses in
connection herewith:  (i) the fees and disbursements of the Company's counsel
and other representatives and advisers; (ii) the expenses in connection with the
preparation and printing of the Offering Materials and amendments and
supplements thereto and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof, (iii) the
cost of printing the purchase agreements or subscription agreements, if any, and
any other documents in connection with the offering, purchase, sale and delivery
of the Securities; (iv) the expenses in connection with the qualification of the
Securities for offering and sale under state securities laws, if any, including
any and all filing fees and the fees and disbursements of counsel for GKM in
connection with reviewing applicable state securities laws and preparing any
filings thereunder; (v) the costs of preparing certificates representing the
Securities; (vi) the costs and charges of any transfer agent or registrar; and

agreements or subscription agreements (including, without limitation, any taxes
payable in connection with the issuance, sale and delivery of the Securities).

          (d) In addition to the compensation payable to GKM hereunder and
regardless of whether the sale of any of the Securities is consummated,
Palisades shall reimburse (or cause the Company to reimburse) GKM, upon request
made from time to time, for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred in connection with its engagement hereunder, including the fees,
disbursements and other charges of its legal counsel, provided, however, that
any individual expenses in excess of $1,000 (or $3,000 in the case of travel
expenses) must be approved by the Company in advance, and reimbursement of
expenses shall not exceed a total of $40,000.

         (e) In addition, Palisades shall pay or cause the Company to pay to GKM
all compensation described in this Section 4 of this Agreement with respect to
any Securities (or securities substantially similar to the Securities) sold to
any party at any time prior to the expiration of 24 months after the Termination
Date if such party (i) is one identified to the Company by GKM during the
Authorization Period, or (ii) is one with whom the Company, during the
Authorization Period, had material discussions regarding the sale of Securities
or securities substantially similar to the Securities.

         (f) In addition, Palisades shall pay GKM additional compensation in the
form of I 00,000 shares of the Company's common stock if the Private Placement
closes on or before March 15, 1999.

    5.  Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Palisades and the Company.

follows:

         (a) During the Authorization Period, neither Palisades nor the Company

Offering Materials, without GKM's prior consent except for internal use among
the Company's personnel and representatives.

         (b) Neither Palisades nor the Company has taken, or will take, any

 securities laws.  Palisades and the Company shall ensure that neither they, nor
 any of their affiliates, nor any person (other than GKM) acting on behalf of
 Palisades or Company or any such affiliates, has engaged or will engage in any
 general advertising or general solicitation (as those terms are used in
 Regulation D under the Securities Act) with respect to the Securities.

          (c) Palisades and the Company shall, from time to time, take such
 action as GKM may reasonably request to qualify the Securities for offering and
 sale as a private placement under the securities laws of such states or other
 jurisdictions as GKM may reasonably request and to comply with such laws so as
 to permit such offers and sales.

          (d) Palisades and the Company shall make available to GKM and/or shall
 agree to have professionally prepared at their expense, all financial
 statements, projections, appraisals, surveys and other information which in
 GKM's reasonable judgment shall be necessary or appropriate for the proper
 marketing of the Securities.  Palisades and the Company shall, upon reasonable
 request, cause their respective directors, officers, personnel, counsel,
 accountants, and other representatives to meet with GKM or its representatives
 to discuss all information relevant for disclosure in any Offering Materials.
 Palisades and the Company shall cooperate in any reasonable investigation
 requested by GKM or its representatives (including the production of
 information at their offices or copies of such information at the offices of
 GKM) for the purpose of confirming the accuracy and completeness of the
 statements contained in the Offering Materials.

          (e) The Offering Materials as of the date thereof and as of the
 closing date of each sale of Securities, will be true, complete and correct in
 all material respects and do not, and will 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 contained therein, in light of the
 circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.  Palisades and the
 Company shall advise GKM immediately of the occurrence of any event or other
 change which results in the Offering Materials containing an untrue statement
 of a material fact or omitting to state a material fact required to be stated
 therein or necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the
 circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and shall furnish to
 GKM copies of amended or supplemented Offering Materials that correct such
 statement or omission in such quantities as GKM may from time to time request
 upon being so advised.  With respect to any financial or other projections
 included or to be included in the Offering Materials, the Company represents
 and warrants that they have been, or will be, prepared in good faith on the
 basis of
<PAGE>

Page 9


reasonable assumptions.  Palisades and the Company recognize and confirm that
GKM (i) will be using and relying primarily on the information in the Offering
Materials and information available from generally recognized public sources in
performing the services contemplated hereunder without having independently
verified the same, (ii) does not assume responsibility for the accuracy or
completeness of such information or of the Offering Materials and (iii) will not
make any appraisal of any assets of the Company.

          (f) (i) At the time of the CD Closing, the Company will have full
corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to
perform its obligations hereunder, and all consents, authorizations, approvals
and orders required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance
hereof have been obtained; (ii) this Agreement will be valid and binding
obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to
the extent that the enforceability hereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors
generally and general principles of equity; and (iii) the execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement will not conflict with, result in a breach of
any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a violation or a default under,
any material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its
subsidiaries is a party or by which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is
bound.

          (g) For a period of five years after the final closing date or until
GKM no longer owns common stock or warrants in the Company, the Company shall
furnish to GKM or shall cause to be furnished to GKM (i) copies of the Company's
annual reports and other financial reports at the earliest time that such
reports are made available to others, (ii) notice of any material development
affecting the Company, (iii) any filings made with the Securities and Exchange
Commission or any exchange on which any class of the Company's securities may be
or become listed or quoted and (iv) such other information concerning the
business and financial condition of the Company as GKM may from time to time
reasonably request or which is sent to the holders of the Securities.

          (h) The Company shall cause its counsel to deliver, at each closing of
the sale of Securities, an opinion addressed to GKM and to each of the
purchasers, covering such matters as are typically covered in opinions delivered
in connection with private placements (including, without limitation, an opinion
to the effect that the placement of the Securities is exempt from registration
under the Securities Act), in form and substance reasonably acceptable to both
GKM and its counsel.  The Company shall also cause to be furnished to GKM, at

documents furnished to the purchasers of the Securities on such closing date and
(ii) copies of all filings made by the Company with the Securities and Exchange
Commission or state securities commissions, in each case, in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to GKM.

pursuant to this Agreement, to act as the exclusive underwriter, placement agent
and financial advisor to the Company in connection with any equity or debt
financing, any merger or acquisition activity or any other investment banking
services for the Company, to the extent that the Company decides to engage an
investment bank or other financial advisor for such services; provided however,
that GKM shall agree to become a co-managing underwriter or co-placement agent
if the Company elects to retain and does retain a nationally recognized "bulge
bracket" investment banking firm to act as lead underwriter or agent, so long as

not be less than that of any other co-manager or co-placement agent (other than
the lead underwriter or agent), and (ii) if there are no other co-managers or
co-placement agents (other than the lead underwriter or agent), GKM shall not
receive less than 40% of such gross spread or placement fees.  Except as
otherwise provided herein, the Company agrees to compensate GKM for such
services in amounts that reflect GKM's normal an customary compensation for such
services, negotiated by the Company and GKM in good faith.

           purchasers including any amounts paid in escrow, any amounts payable
           in the future, whether or not subject to any contingency in
           connection therewith, and any amounts payable upon conversion or
           exchange of any Securities sold in the Private Placement.  If the
           Aggregate Consideration is paid in whole or in part in the form of
           securities or other noncash consideration, the value thereof, for
           purposes of calculating GKM's fee, shall be the fair market value
           thereof on the day prior to the closing date for such investment, as
           determined in good faith by the Company and GKM; provided, however,
           that to the extent that it consists of securities with an existing
           public trading market, the value thereof shall be determined by the
           average of the last sales price for such securities on the five
           trading days prior to the closing date for such investment.

      2. Financial Advisory Fees

      If during the term of GKM's engagement hereunder, or within a period of
      twenty-four (24) months following the effective date of termination of
      GKM's engagement hereunder, the Company enters into one or more definitive
      agreements which subsequently result in one or more Transactions and (x)
      the party or parties to the Transactions were identified by GKM, or (y)
      GKM rendered advice concerning the Transactions, then GKM shall be paid a
      cash fee at the closing of each such Transaction as determined by
      multiplying the appropriate percentage by the Aggregate Consideration (as
      defined below) of the Transaction set forth below:

              (i) For Transactions up to $50 million

                           Purchase Price                       Percentage

                           Up to the first $5 million              5.00%
                           Plus on the next $1 0 million           3.00%
                           Plus on the amount over $15 million     1.50%

     (ii) For Transactions Above $50 million

                          Purchase Price                       Percentage

                          Up to the first $50 million             2.00%
                          Plus on the next $200 million           1.00%
                          Plus on the amount over $250 million    0.50%

  The term "Purchase Price" means the sum of the aggregate amount of cash and
the fair market value of any securities or assets received by the target company
or its shareholders in connection with a Transaction including, without
limitation, (i) the aggregate principal amount of any indebtedness of the target
company assumed, satisfied or otherwise discharged by the acquiring company at
the time of closing of the Transaction, (ii) amounts paid by the acquiring
company to holders of any warrants, stock purchase rights, convertible
securities or similar rights of the target company and to holders of any options
or stock appreciation rights issued by the target company, whether or not
vested, and (iii) if the Transaction involves the acquisition of all or a
substantial part of the operating assets of the target company, the excess, if
any, of (x) the value of any current assets not sold, minus the (y) the value of
any current liabilities not assumed by the acquiring company.  If the Purchase
Price is paid in whole or in part in the form of securities or other noncash
consideration, the value thereof, for purposes of calculating GKM's fee, shall
be the fair market value thereof on the day prior to the closing date for such
investment, as determined in good faith by the Company and GKM; provided,
however, that to the extent that it consists of securities with an existing
public trading market, the value thereof shall be determined by the average of
the last sales price for such securities on the five trading days prior to the
closing date for such investment.

  In connection with a Transaction involving a tender offer or other purchase or
sale of stock, the transaction fee will be payable and calculated based on the
Purchase Price as through I 00% of the outstanding stock on a fully diluted
basis had been acquired for the same per share amount paid in the transaction

        or series of transactions in which 50% or more of the target company's
        outstanding stock is acquired by the Company.  Nevertheless, GKM's
        services pursuant to this Agreement will continue after such first step
        is accomplished to assist the Company with a second step merger or
        similar transaction.
