                           business combination and sale of substantially all

                           more than 5% of the total assets or equity securities

         A common stock owned by CNET upon CNET's notice to NBC describing the

                  To the best knowledge of the undersigned, there are no other
         contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or
         otherwise) between the person named in Item 2 and any person with
         respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to
