void. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be biding upon the parties

be binding unless executed in writing by the party making the waiver.

         16.3 Severability. If a court of law finds any provision of this
Agreement unenforceable, the parties agree to replace the offending provision
with an enforceable provision that most nearly achieves the intent and economic
effect of the unenforceable provision and all other terms shall remain in full
force and effect.

         16.4 Force Majeure. No party shall be liable hereunder by any reason of
any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder (except
payment of money) on account of strikes, riots, insurrection, fires, floods,

material shortages or any other cause which is beyond the reasonable control of
such party.

                            UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
                            FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION
                                IN THE MATTER OF
                            GEOCITIES, A CORPORATION.

                                FILE NO. 9823015

                       AGREEMENT CONTAINING CONSENT ORDER

The Federal Trade Commission has conducted an investigation of certain acts and
practices of GeoCities, a corporation ("proposed respondent"). Proposed
respondent, having been represented by counsel, is willing to enter into an
agreement containing a consent order resolving the allegations contained in the
attached draft complain. Therefore,

IT IS HEREBY AGREED by and between GeoCities, by its duly authorized officer,
and counsel for the Federal Trade Commission that:

1. Proposed respondent GeoCities is a California corporation with its principal
office or place of business at 1918 Main Street, Suite 300, Santa Monica,
California 90405.

2. Proposed respondent admits all the jurisdictional facts set forth in the
draft complaint.

3. Proposed respondent waives:

         (a) Any further procedural steps;

         (b) The requirement that the Commission's decision contain a statement
         of findings of fact and conclusions of law; and

         (c) All rights to seek judicial review or otherwise to challenge or
         contest the validity of the order entered pursuant to this agreement.

4. This agreement shall not become part of the public record of the proceeding
unless and until it is accepted by the Commission. If this agreement is accepted
by the Commission, it, together with the draft complaint, will be placed on the
public record for a period of sixty (60) days and information about it publicly
released. The Commission thereafter may either withdraw its acceptance of this
agreement and so


                                       2
<PAGE>   17

notify proposed respondent, in which event it will take such action as it may
consider appropriate, or issue and serve its complaint (in such form as the
circumstances may require) and decision in disposition of the proceeding.

5. This agreement is for settlement purposes only and does not constitute an
admission by proposed respondent that the law has been violated as alleged in
the draft complaint, or that the facts as alleged in the draft complaint, other
than the jurisdictional facts, are true.

6. This agreement contemplates that, if it is accepted by the Commission, and if
such acceptance is not subsequently withdrawn by the Commission pursuant to the
provisions of Section 2.34 of the Commission's Rules, the Commission may,
without further notice to proposed respondent, (1) issue its complaint
corresponding in form and substance with the attached draft complaint and its
decision containing the following order in disposition of the proceeding, and
(2) make information about it public. When so entered, the order shall have the
same force and effect and may be altered, modified, or set aside in the same
manner and within the same time provided by statue for other orders. The order
shall become final upon service. Delivery of the complaint and the decision and
order to proposed respondent's address as stated in this agreement by any means
specified in Section 4.4 (a) of the Commission's Rules shall constitute service.
Proposed respondent waives any right it may have to any other manner of service.
The complaint may be used in construing the terms of the order. No agreement,
understanding, representation, or interpretation not contained in the order or
the agreement may be used to vary or contradict the terms of the order.

7. Proposed respondent has read the draft complaint and consent order. It
understands that it may be liable for civil penalties in the amount provided by
law and other appropriate relief for each violation of the order after it
becomes final.


                                      ORDER

IT IS ORDERED that respondent, directly or through any corporation, subsidiary,
division, or other device, in connection with any online collection of personal
identifying information from consumers, in or affecting commerce, shall not make
any misrepresentation, in any manner, expressly or by implication, about its
collection or use of such information from or about consumers, including, but
not limited to, what information will be disclosed to third parties and how the
information will be used.


                                       II.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that respondent, directly or through any corporation,
subsidiary, division, or other device, in connection with any online collection
of personal identifying information from consumers, in or affecting commerce,
shall not misrepresent, in any manner, expressly or by implication, the identity
of the party collecting any such information or the sponsorship of any activity
on its Web site.


                                      III.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that respondent, directly or through any corporation,
subsidiary, division, or other device, in connection with the online collection
of personal identifying information from children, in or affecting commerce,
shall not collect personal identifying information from any child if respondent
has actual knowledge that such child does not have his or her parent's
permission to provide the information to respondent. Respondent shall not be
deemed to have actual knowledge if the child has falsely represented that (s)he
is not a child and respondent does not knowingly possess information that such
representation is false.


                                       IV.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that respondent, directly or through any corporation,
subsidiary, division, or other device, in connection with the online collection
of personal identifying information, in or affecting commerce, shall provide
clear and prominent notice to consumers, including the parents of children, with
respect to respondent's practices with regard to its collection and use of
personal identifying information. Such notice shall include, but is not limited
to, disclosure of:

         A. what information is being collected (e.g., "name," "home address,"
         "e-mail address," "age," "interests");


                                       5
<PAGE>   20

         B. it's intended use(s);

         C. the third parties to whom it will be disclosed (e.g., "advertisers
         of consumer products," mailing list companies," "the general public");

         D. the consumer's ability to obtain access to or directly access such
         information and the means by which (s)he may do so;

         E. the consumer's ability to remove directly or have the information
         removed from respondent's databases and the means by which (s) he may
         do so; and

         F. the procedures to delete personal identifying information from
         respondent's databases and any limitations related to such deletion.

Such notice shall appear on the home page of respondent's Web site(s) and at
each location on the site(s) at which such information is collected.
Provided that, respondent shall not be required to include the notice at the
locations at which information is collected if such information is limited to
tracking information and the collection of such information is described in the
notice required by this Part.
Provided further that, for purposes of this Part, compliance with all of the
following shall be deemed adequate notice: (a) placement of a clear and
prominent hyperlink or button labeled PRIVACY NOTICE on the home page(s), which
directly links to the privacy notice screen(s); (b) placement of the information
required in this Part clearly and prominently on the privacy notice screen(s),
followed on the same screen(s) with a button that must be clicked on to make it
disappear; and (c) at each location on the site at which any personal
identifying information is collected, placement of a clear and prominent
hyperlink on the initial screen on which the collection takes place, which links
directly to the privacy notice and which is accompanied by the following
statement in bold typeface:

         NOTICE: We collect personal information on this site. To lean more
         about how we use your information click here.


                                       V.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that respondent, directly or through any corporation,
subsidiary, division, or other device, in connection with the online collection
of personal identifying information from children, in or affecting commerce,
shall maintain a procedure by which it obtains express parental consent prior to
collecting and using such information.


                                       6
<PAGE>   21

Provided that, respondent may implement the following screening procedure that
shall be deemed to be in compliance with this Part. Respondent shall collect and
retain certain personal identifying information from a child, including birth
date and the child's and parent's e-mail addresses (hereafter "screening
information"), enabling respondent to identify the site visitor as a child and
to block the child's attempt to register with respondent without express
parental consent. If respondent elects to have the child register with it,
respondent shall: (1) give notice to the child to have his/her parent provided
express parental consent to register; and/or (2) sent a notice to the parent's
e-mail address for the purpose of obtaining express parental consent. The notice
to the child or parent shall provide instructions for the parent to: (1) go to a
specific URL on the Web site to receive information on respondent's practices
regarding its collection and use of personal identifying information from
children and (2) provide express parental consent for the collection and use of
such information. Respondent's collection of screening information shall be by a
manner that discourages children from providing personal identifying information
in addition to the screening information. All personal identifying information
collected from a child shall be held by respondent in a secure manner and shall
not be used in any manner other than to effectuate the notice to the child or
parent, or to block the child from further attempts to register or otherwise
provide personal identifying information to respondent without express parental
consent. The personal identifying information collected shall not be disclosed
to any third party prior to the receipt of express parental consent. If express
parental consent is not received by twenty (20) days after respondent's
collection of the information from the child, respondent shall remove all such
personal identifying information from its databases, except such screening
information necessary to block the child from further attempts to register or
otherwise provide personal identifying information to respondent without express
parent consent.

                                       VI.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that respondent GeoCities, and its successors and assigns,
shall provide a reasonable means for consumers, including the parents of
children, to obtain removal of their or their children's personal identifying
information collected and retained by respondent and/or disclosed to third
parties, prior to the date of service of this order, as follows:


                                       7
<PAGE>   22


         A. Respondent shall provide a clear and prominent notice to each
         consumer over the age of twelve (12) from whom it collected personal
         identifying information and disclosed that information to CMG
         Information Services, Inc., describing such consumer's options as
         stated in Part VI.C and the manner in which (s)he may exercise them.

         B. Respondent shall provide a clear and prominent notice to the parent
         of each child from whom it collected personal identifying information
         prior to May 20, 1998, describing the parent's options as stated in
         Part VI.C and the manner in which (s)he may exercise them.

         C. Respondent shall provide the notice within thirty (30) days after
         the date of service of this order by e-mail, postal mail, or facsimile.
         Notice to the parent of a child may be to the e-mail address of the
         parent and, if not known by respondent, to the em-mail address of the
         child. The notice shall include the following information:

                  1. the information that was collected (e.g., "name," "home
                  address," "e-mail address," "age," "interests"); its use(s)
                  and/or intended use(s); and third parties to whom it was or
                  will be disclosed (e.g., "advertisers of consumer products,"
                  "mailing list companies," "the general public") and with
                  respect to children, that the child's personal identifying
                  information may have been made public through various means,
                  such as by publicly posting on the child's personal home page
                  or disclosure by the child through the use of an em-mail
                  account;

                  2. the consumer's and child's parents right to obtain access
                  to such information and the means by which (s)he may do so;

                  3. the consumer's and child's parent's right to have the
                  information removed from respondent's or a third party's
                  databases and the means by which (s)he may do so;

                  4. a statement that children's information will not be
                  disclosed to third parties, including public posting, without
                  express parental consent to the disclosure or public posting;

                  5. the means by which express parental consent may be
                  communicated to the respondent permitting disclosure to third
                  parties of a child's information; and

                  6. a statement that the failure of a consumer over the age of
                  twelve (12) to request removal of the information from
                  respondent's databases will be deemed as approval to its
                  continued retention and/or disclosure to third parties by
                  respondent.

         D. Respondent shall provide to consumers, including the parents of
         children, a reasonable and secure means to request access to or
         directly access their or their children's personal identifying
         information. Such means may include direct access through password
         protected personal profile, return e-mail bearing an electronically
         verifiable signature, postal mail, or facsimile.

         E. Respondent shall provide to consumers, including the parents of


                                       8
<PAGE>   23

         children, a reasonable means to request removal of their or their
         children's personal identifying information from respondent's and/or
         the applicable third party's databases or an assurance that such
         information has been removed. Such means may include e-mail, postal
         mail, or facsimile.

         F. The failure of a consumer over the age of twelve (12) to request the
         actions specified above within twenty (20) days after his/her receipt
         of the notice required in Part VI.A shall be deemed to be consent to
         the information's continued retention and use by respondent and any
         third party.

         G. Respondent shall provide to the parent of a child a reasonable means
         to communicate express parental consent to the retention and/or
         disclosure to third parties of his/her child's personal identifying
         information. Respondent shall not use any such information or disclose
         it to any third party unless and until it receives express parental
         consent.

         H. If, in response to the notice required in Part VI.A, respondent has
         received a request by a consumer over the age of twelve (12) that
         respondent should remove from its databases the consumer's personal
         identifying information or has not received the express consent of a
         parent of a child to the continued retention and/or disclosure to third
         parties of a child's personal identifying information by respondent
         within twenty (20) days after the parent's receipt of the notice
         required in Part VI.B, respondent shall within ten (10) days:

                  1. Discontinue its retention and/or disclosure to third
                  parties of such information, including but not limited to (1)
                  removing from its databases all such information, (b) removing
                  all personal home pages created by the child, and (c)
                  terminating all e-mail accounts for the child; and

                  2. Contact all third parties to whom respondent has disclosed
