Safe-Harbour Statement

This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
"safe harbour" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. These statements are based on management's current expectations or beliefs
and are subject to a number of factors and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking
statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this presentation
address the following subjects: future financial and operating results and
efficiency; future industry, revenue and customer growth; future internet
penetration rates; and the timing and benefits of the merger.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ
materially from those described in the forward-looking statements: the risk that
Terra's and Lycos' businesses will not be integrated successfully; costs related
to the merger; failure of the Lycos stockholders to approve the merger;
inability to further identify, develop and achieve success for new products,
services and technologies; increased competition and its effect on pricing,
spending, third-party relationships and revenues; inability to establish and
maintain relationships with commerce, advertising, marketing, technology, and
content providers; difficulties in having the internet accepted as an
advertising medium; the growth of free internet access in many markets; adverse
economic trends; and the effect of any future acquisitions.

For a detailed discussion of these and other cautionary statements, please refer
to Terra's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the
Risk Factors section of Terra's F-4 filing, as amended, initially filed on June
27, 2000 and Lycos, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
including the section titled "Factors Affecting the Company's Business,
Operating Results and Financial Condition" of the Management's Discussion and
Analysis in its Form 10-K for the year ended July 31, 1999 and the Risk Factors
section of Lycos' S-3 filing that became effective in March, 2000.
