                                  THE COMPANY
 
    DoubleClick is a leading provider of comprehensive Internet advertising
solutions for advertisers and Web publishers. The Company's technology and media
expertise enable it to dynamically deliver highly targeted, measurable and
cost-effective Internet advertising for advertisers and to increase ad sales and
improve ad space inventory management for Web publishers. DoubleClick offers
three distinct Internet advertising solutions: (i) the DoubleClick Network, a
leading Internet advertising network which provides ad delivery and related
services to over 60 Web sites, including AltaVista, The Dilbert Zone, Macromedia
and U.S. News and World Report; (ii) DoubleClick's DART (Dynamic Advertising
Reporting and Targeting) Service, an Internet advertising management solution
for Web publishers with internal ad sales forces, which is currently being
utilized by over 20 Web publishers, including NBC, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
INTERACTIVE EDITION, RealNetworks and THE SPORTING NEWS; and (iii) DoubleClick
Direct, the Company's recently introduced advertising solution designed
specifically for direct marketers.
 
    DoubleClick's proprietary DART technology provides the platform for the
Company's solutions. This technology enables advertisers to optimize ad
performance by dynamically targeting and delivering ads to Web users based on
pre-selected criteria. As a user visits the Web sites of Web publishers which
utilize the Company's solutions, DART collects information regarding the user
and his or her viewing activities and ad responses, and applies this data to
improve its ability to predict the user's reaction and enhance DART's ad
targeting capabilities. The sophisticated tracking and reporting functionality
incorporated into DART provides advertisers with accurate measurements of ad
performance based on selected criteria. In addition, DART provides Web
publishers with sophisticated ad space inventory management capabilities.
 
    In November 1997, the Company estimates that more than 20 million users
visited the Web sites of Web publishers which utilized the Company's solutions,
resulting in an aggregate of over 900 million requests received by DoubleClick
for the delivery of ads (impressions). During the same period, DoubleClick
managed approximately 7,000 Internet advertisements for over 600 advertisers,
and over 100 Web publishers representing an aggregate of approximately 350 Web
sites utilized the Company's Internet advertising solutions.
 
    The Internet and the Web have enjoyed unprecedented growth in recent years.
International Data Corporation ("IDC") estimates that by the end of 1997 there
will be over 29 million Web users in the United States and over 50 million users
worldwide, and the number of Web users is expected to increase
 
                                       3
<PAGE>
to 72 million in the United States and 129 million worldwide by the end of 2000.
According to the Georgia Institute of Technology, in 1997, an estimated 47% of
Internet users had a college degree, 67% were between the ages of 18 and 44 and
their mean household income was $53,000. The Company believes that advertisers
will seek to take advantage of the attractive demographics of Internet users.
IDC estimates that the dollar value of Internet advertising in the United States
will increase from $551 million in 1997 to $4.0 billion in 2001, representing a
64% compounded annual growth rate. In addition, the Company believes that the
Internet represents an attractive new medium for direct marketing, which has
traditionally been conducted through direct mail and telemarketing, because
highly targeted product offers can be made to consumers at the point-of-sale.
Jupiter Communications estimates that revenues from direct marketing over the
Internet will exceed $1.3 billion in 2002.
 
    As a medium for advertisers and advertising agencies, the Internet offers a
number of significant advantages over traditional media which the Company
believes will lead to significant increases in overall Internet advertising
spending. The Internet provides advertisers with the opportunity to reach highly
targeted audiences, aggregate ad purchasing, access international, national and
local markets, improve advertising accountability and performance, and provide
enhanced direct marketing capabilities. DoubleClick's solutions are designed to
enable advertisers to take advantage of these growing opportunities to realize
significant economic gain through Internet advertising.
 
    Web publishers that attempt to support, or profit from, their Web sites by
selling Internet advertising are seeking advertising solutions that enable them
to increase Web advertising sales, manage Web advertising operations, and
effectively manage ad space inventory. DoubleClick provides Web publishers with
three distinct Internet advertising solutions which address these issues. By
joining the DoubleClick Network, Web publishers can take advantage of
DoubleClick's extensive and experienced ad sales organization and also benefit
from the dynamic ad targeting and reporting functionality provided by the DART
technology. For Web publishers with internal ad sales organizations seeking a
comprehensive turnkey ad management solution, DoubleClick offers its DART
Service. Using the recently launched DoubleClick Direct, Web publishers can sell
their Web sites' available ad space inventory on a cost-per-action basis to
direct marketers.
 
    To provide U.S. and foreign advertisers with the ability to deliver their
ads in global markets and provide Web publishers in international markets with
the ability to outsource their ad sales, technical operations and ad space
inventory management, the Company is developing DoubleClick Networks in
Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom, and through its business partners, in
Japan, Iberoamerica (Spain, Portugal and Latin America) and Scandinavia. To
support this initiative, DoubleClick has recently opened sales offices in
Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom which offer all of the Company's
solutions.
 
    The Company was incorporated in Delaware on January 23, 1996 as DoubleClick
Incorporated and changed its name to DoubleClick Inc. on May 14, 1996. The
Company's principal executive offices are located at 41 Madison Avenue, 32nd
Floor, New York, New York 10010, and its telephone number at that location is
(212) 683-0001.

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
    THIS PROSPECTUS CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND
UNCERTAINTIES. THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE
ANTICIPATED IN THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF CERTAIN FACTORS,
INCLUDING THOSE SET FORTH IN THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS
PROSPECTUS. IN ADDITION TO THE OTHER INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS,
THE FOLLOWING RISK FACTORS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED CAREFULLY IN EVALUATING THE
COMPANY AND ITS BUSINESS BEFORE PURCHASING THE COMMON STOCK OFFERED BY THIS
PROSPECTUS.
 
EXTREMELY LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY; HISTORY OF LOSSES; ANTICIPATION OF
  CONTINUED LOSSES
 
    The Company was incorporated in January 1996 and its prospects must be
considered in light of the risks, expenses and difficulties frequently
encountered by companies with extremely limited operating histories,
particularly companies in the new and rapidly evolving markets for the Internet
and Internet services, including the Internet advertising market. There can be
no assurance that the Company will be successful in addressing such risks.
Although the Company has experienced revenue growth in recent periods,
historical growth rates may not be sustained and are not necessarily indicative
of future operating results. Given the level of planned operating and capital
expenditures, the Company anticipates that it will continue to incur operating
losses at least into 1999. There can be no assurance that operating losses will
not increase in the future or that the Company will ever achieve or sustain
profitability. To the extent that revenues do not grow at anticipated rates,
that increases in operating expenses precede or are not subsequently followed by
commensurate increases in revenues or that the Company is unable to adjust
operating expense levels accordingly, the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.
See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Overview".
 
WEB PUBLISHER CONCENTRATION; DEPENDENCE ON ALTAVISTA
 
    Ads delivered on the Web sites of the top four Web publishers on the
DoubleClick Network accounted for approximately 60.0% of the Company's revenues
for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The Company anticipates that a
substantial portion of the Company's future revenues will be derived from ads
delivered on the Web sites of a limited number of Web publishers. The Company
typically enters into short-term contracts with Web publishers for inclusion of
their Web sites in the DoubleClick Network. The loss of one or more of the Web
sites which account for a significant portion of the Company's revenues from the
DoubleClick Network or any reduction in traffic on such Web sites could have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition. In addition, the loss of such Web sites may result in the
loss of advertisers or Web publishers from the DoubleClick Network, which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations
and financial condition.
 
    Revenues from advertisements delivered on the AltaVista Web site represented
42.8% of the Company's revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1997.
AltaVista is a significant part of the DoubleClick Network and the Company
expects AltaVista to continue to account for a significant portion of the
Company's revenues for the next few years. While the stated term of the
Company's agreement with AltaVista expires in December 1998, either party may
terminate the agreement upon 90 days' prior written notice. Further, any
development materially affecting the business or financial condition of
AltaVista, including any change in control of AltaVista, a subsidiary of Digital
Equipment Corporation, could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
relationship with AltaVista. The loss of AltaVista as part of the DoubleClick
Network, any reduction in traffic on the AltaVista Web site, or a termination of
AltaVista's contract with the Company, would have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. In
addition, given the short-term nature of the AltaVista contract, as is the case
with most of the Company's Web publisher contracts, the Company will have to
negotiate new contracts or renewals which may have terms that are not as
favorable to the
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
Company as the existing contracts, and such renegotiations could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition.
 
RELIANCE ON THE DOUBLECLICK NETWORK
 
    Since the third quarter of 1996, the Company's DoubleClick Network has
accounted for substantially all of the Company's revenues. Although the Company
recently began providing its DART Service to Web publishers and introduced
DoubleClick Direct, the Company expects that revenues generated from
advertisements delivered to Web sites on the DoubleClick Network will continue
to account for a substantial portion of the Company's revenues for the
foreseeable future. The DoubleClick Network consists of Web sites of a limited
number of Web publishers that have contracted for the Company's solutions
pursuant to short-term agreements. There can be no assurance that such Web
publishers will remain associated with the DoubleClick Network, that the Web
sites on the DoubleClick Network will maintain consistent or increasing levels
of traffic over time, or that the Company will be able to timely or effectively
replace any exiting DoubleClick Network Web site with other Web sites with
comparable traffic patterns and user demographics. The failure of the Company to
successfully market the DoubleClick Network or the failure of the Web sites on
the DoubleClick Network to maintain consistent or increasing levels of traffic
would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations".
 
DEPENDENCE ON A LIMITED NUMBER OF ADVERTISERS
 
    The Company's revenues to date have been derived from a limited number of
customers which advertise on the DoubleClick Network and the Company expects
that a limited number of advertisers will continue to account for a significant
percentage of the Company's revenues for the foreseeable future. In particular,
Microsoft accounted for 10.1% of the Company's revenues for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 and the Company's top ten advertisers accounted for an
aggregate of 29.7% of the Company's revenues during the same period. Further,
advertisements delivered by the Company are typically sold pursuant to purchase
order agreements which are subject to cancellation. There can be no assurance
that current advertisers will continue to purchase advertising from the Company
or that the Company will be able to successfully attract additional advertisers.
The loss of one or more of the advertisers that represent a material portion of
the revenues generated on the DoubleClick Network could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, the non-payment or late payment of amounts due by a significant
advertiser could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
results of operations and financial conditions. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations".
 
POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS; SEASONALITY
 
    The Company's results of operations may fluctuate significantly in the
future as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the
Company's control. These factors include the addition or loss of advertisers or
Web publishers that utilize the Company's solutions, the level of user traffic
and number of available impressions on the Web sites on the DoubleClick Network,
changes in service fees payable by the Company to Web publishers, the
introduction of new Internet advertising solutions by the Company or its
competitors, the amount and timing of capital expenditures and other costs
relating to the expansion of the Company's operations, the timing and number of
new hires, the mix of solutions provided, the mix of domestic and international
revenues, the incurrence of costs relating to acquisitions, demand for, and
market acceptance of, Internet advertising, seasonal trends in Internet usage
and advertising placements, advertisers' budgeting cycles, the commitment of
advertising budgets to Internet advertising, changes in pricing models for
Internet advertising, and general economic conditions.
 
                                       7
<PAGE>
    For the foreseeable future, the Company's revenues will be directly
contingent on the level of user traffic and advertising activity on the Web
sites on the DoubleClick Network in a given period. Accordingly, future revenues
and results of operations are difficult to forecast. The Company plans to
continue to significantly increase its operating expenses in order to increase
its sales and marketing operations, to continue to expand internationally, to
upgrade and enhance its DART technology and to market and support its solutions.
To the extent that such expenses precede or are not subsequently followed by
increased revenues, the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition would be materially and adversely affected. The Company may be unable
to adjust spending in a timely manner to compensate for any unexpected revenue
shortfall, and any significant shortfall in revenues in relation to the
Company's expectations would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
    The Company has been, and expects in the future to be, subject to seasonal
fluctuations in the amount of Internet advertising revenues generated by the
Company, as advertisers historically spend less during the first calendar
quarter of each year. Further, additional seasonal patterns in Internet
advertising spending and other seasonal fluctuations may emerge as the market
matures.
 
    Due to all of the foregoing factors, the Company believes that
period-to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily
meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance.
Furthermore it is possible that in some future quarters the Company's results of
operations may fall below the expectations of securities analysts and investors.
In such event, the trading price of the Company's Common Stock would likely be
materially and adversely affected. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Quarterly Results of
Operations" and "Business -- Sales and Marketing".
 
DEVELOPING MARKET; UNPROVEN ACCEPTANCE AND EFFECTIVENESS OF WEB ADVERTISING
 
    The market for Internet advertising has only recently begun to develop, is
rapidly evolving and is characterized by an increasing number of market
entrants. As is typical in the case of a new and rapidly evolving industry,
demand and market acceptance for recently introduced products and services are
subject to a high level of uncertainty. Since the Company expects to derive
substantially all of its revenues in the foreseeable future from Internet
advertising solutions, the future success of the Company is highly dependent on
the increased use of the Internet as an advertising medium. The Internet as an
advertising medium has not been available for a sufficient period of time to
gauge its effectiveness as compared with traditional advertising media. Most of
the Company's current or potential advertising customers have limited or no
experience using the Internet as an advertising medium, have not devoted a
significant portion of their advertising expenditures to Internet advertising
and may not find Internet advertising to be effective for promoting their
products and services relative to advertising on traditional media. The adoption
of Internet advertising, particularly by those entities that have historically
relied upon traditional media for advertising, requires the acceptance of a new
way of conducting business and exchanging information. In addition, most of the
Company's current and potential Web publisher customers have limited or no
experience in generating revenues from the sale of advertising space on their
Web sites. There can be no assurance that the market for Internet advertising
will continue to emerge or become sustainable. If the market fails to develop or
develops more slowly than expected, the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.
 
    There are no widely accepted standards for the measurement of the
effectiveness of Internet advertising, and there can be no assurance that such
standards will develop sufficiently to support Internet advertising as a
significant advertising medium. There also can be no assurance that the
Company's advertising customers will accept the Company's or other third-party
measurements of impressions on the Web sites of Web publishers utilizing the
Company's solutions, or that such measurements will not contain errors. In
addition, the effectiveness of Internet advertising is dependent upon
 
                                       8
<PAGE>
the accuracy of information contained in the databases used to target
advertisements. Like any database, there can be no assurance that the
information in the Company's database will be accurate or that advertisers will
be willing to have advertisements targeted by any database containing such
potential inaccuracies.
 
    The Company's DART technology uses cookies to limit the frequency with which
an ad is shown to the user. Cookies are bits of information keyed to a specific
server, file pathway or directory location that are stored on a user's hard
drive and passed to a Web site's server through the user's browser software.
Cookies are placed on the user's hard drive without the user's knowledge or
consent, but can be removed by the user at any time through the modification of
the user's browser settings. Due to privacy concerns, some Internet
commentators, advocates and governmental bodies have suggested that the use of
cookies be limited or eliminated. In addition, certain currently available
Internet browsers allow a user to delete cookies or prevent cookies from being
stored on the user's hard drive. Any reduction or limitation in the use of
cookies could limit the effectiveness of ad targeting by the Company's DART
technology.
 
    Further, there can be no assurance that advertisers will determine that
banner advertising, the delivery of which currently comprises substantially all
of the Company's revenues, is an effective or attractive advertising medium, and
there can be no assurance that the Company will effectively transition to any
other forms of Internet advertising should they develop and achieve market
acceptance. Moreover, "filter" software programs that limit or prevent
advertising from being delivered to a Web user's computer are available.
Widespread adoption of such software by users could have a material adverse
effect upon the commercial viability of Internet advertising, which would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition.
 
UNPROVEN BUSINESS MODEL
 
    The Company's business model is to generate revenues solely by providing
Internet advertising solutions to advertisers and Web publishers. The profit
potential of the Company's business model is unproven, and, to be successful,
the Company must, among other things, develop and market solutions that achieve
broad market acceptance by advertisers and Web publishers. There can be no
assurance that Internet advertising, in general, or the Company's solutions, in
particular, will achieve broad market acceptance. The Company's ability to
generate significant revenues from advertisers will depend, in part, on the
development of a large base of Web publishers that utilize the Company's
solutions and have Web sites with adequate available ad space inventory, and
whose Web sites generate sufficient user traffic with demographic
characteristics that are attractive to such advertisers. Furthermore, there is
intense competition among sellers of Internet advertising and a variety of
related pricing models have developed, making it difficult to project future
levels of advertising revenues and applicable gross margins that can be
sustained by the Company or the Internet advertising industry in general.
Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the Company's business model will be
successful or that it can sustain revenue growth and maintain sufficient gross
margins.
 
    Market acceptance of DoubleClick Direct will depend, in large part, on the
adoption of the Internet as a direct marketing vehicle and the continued
emergence of Internet commerce. No assurance can be given that the Company's
cost-per-action pricing model for DoubleClick Direct will achieve market
acceptance by direct marketers, generate significant revenues, or provide
acceptable gross margins.
 
RISK OF SYSTEM FAILURE
 
    The Company's solutions utilize its DART technology, which resides on a
computer system located at the Company's headquarters in New York City. The
continuing and uninterrupted performance of such computer system is critical to
the success of the Company's business. Any system failure that causes
interruptions in the Company's ability to service its customers, including
failures that affect the ability of
 
                                       9
<PAGE>
the Company to deliver advertisements without significant delay to the viewer,
could reduce customer satisfaction and, if sustained or repeated, would reduce
the attractiveness of the Company's solutions to advertisers and Web publishers.
An increase in the volume of advertising delivered through the Company's servers
could strain the capacity of the software or hardware deployed by the Company,
which could lead to slower response time or system failures. To the extent that
any capacity constraints are not effectively addressed by the Company, such
constraints would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
results of operations and financial condition.
 
    The Company's operations are dependent upon its ability to protect its
computer systems against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunications
failures, vandalism and other malicious acts, and similar unexpected adverse
events. In addition, failure of the Company's telecommunications providers to
provide the data communications capacity in the time frame required by the
Company for any reason could cause interruptions in the solutions provided by
the Company. Despite precautions taken by the Company, unanticipated problems
affecting the Company's systems have from time to time in the past caused, and
in the future could cause, interruptions in the delivery of the Company's
solutions. The Company is currently in the planning stages of acquiring and
implementing a back-up, off-site system capable of supporting its operations in
the event of a system failure at its headquarters. The Company plans to have
such system operational during the first half of 1998. Any damage or failure
that interrupts or delays the Company's operations could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
COMPETITION
 
    The markets for Internet advertising and related products and services are
intensely competitive and such competition is expected to continue to increase.
There are no substantial barriers to entry in this market and the Company
believes that its ability to compete depends upon many factors within and beyond
its control, including the timing and market acceptance of new solutions and
enhancements to existing solutions developed by the Company and its competitors,
customer service and support, sales and marketing efforts, and the ease of use,
performance, price and reliability of the Company's solutions.
 
    The Company competes for Internet advertising revenues with large Web
publishers and Web search engine companies, such as America Online, Yahoo!,
Excite and Infoseek. Further, the DoubleClick Network competes with a variety of
Internet advertising networks. In marketing the DoubleClick Network and its DART
Service to Web publishers, the Company also competes with providers of ad
servers and related services, including NetGravity. The Company also encounters
competition from a number of other sources, including content aggregation
companies, companies engaged in advertising sales networks, advertising
agencies, and other companies which facilitate Internet advertising. Many of the
Company's existing competitors, as well as a number of potential new
competitors, have longer operating histories, greater name recognition, larger
customer bases and significantly greater financial, technical and marketing
resources than the Company. As a result, they may be able to respond more
quickly to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements, or
to devote greater resources to the development, promotion and sale of their
products and services than the Company. Such competitors may be able to
undertake more extensive marketing campaigns, adopt more aggressive pricing
policies and make more attractive offers to potential employees, strategic
partners, advertisers and Web publishers. Further, there can be no assurance
that the Company's competitors will not develop Internet products or services
that are equal or superior to the solutions developed by the Company or that
achieve greater market acceptance than the Company's solutions. The Company also
expects that competition may increase as a result of industry consolidation. In
addition, current and potential competitors have established or may establish
cooperative relationships among themselves or with third parties to increase the
ability of their products or services
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
to address the needs of the Company's prospective advertising and Web publisher
customers. Accordingly, it is possible that new competitors or alliances among
existing or potential competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant
market share. Increased competition is likely to result in price reductions,
reduced gross margins and loss of market share, any of which would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
compete successfully against existing or potential competitors or that
competitive pressures will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
    The Internet, in general, and the Company, in particular, also must compete
for a share of advertisers' total advertising budgets with traditional
advertising media such as television, radio, cable and print. To the extent that
the Internet is perceived to be a limited or ineffective advertising medium,
advertisers may be reluctant to devote a significant portion of their
advertising budget to Internet advertising, which could limit the growth of
Internet advertising and would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition. See "Business --
Competition".
 
MANAGEMENT OF GROWTH
 
    The Company has experienced rapid growth in its operations. This rapid
growth has placed, and is expected to continue to place, a significant strain on
the Company's managerial, operational and financial resources. The Company has
grown from 13 employees as of March 31, 1996 to 171 employees as of December 1,
1997. The Company expects that the number of its employees will continue to
increase for the foreseeable future, including the hiring of a new Chief
Financial Officer and other additional officers. Furthermore, the Company must
continue to improve its financial and management controls, reporting systems and
procedures, and expand, train and manage its work force. There can be no
assurance that the Company's systems, procedures or controls will be adequate to
support the Company's expanding operations or that Company management will be
able to achieve the rapid execution necessary to successfully offer its
solutions and implement its business plan. The Company's future results of
operations will also depend on its ability to expand its sales and marketing and
customer support organizations both domestically and internationally. The
failure of the Company to manage its growth effectively would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition.
 
DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL
 
    The Company's future success depends, in significant part, upon the
continued service of its key technical, sales and senior management personnel,
particularly Kevin J. O'Connor, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the
Board of Directors, Kevin P. Ryan, President and Chief Financial Officer, Dwight
A. Merriman, Chief Technical Officer, Wenda Harris Millard, Executive Vice
President, Marketing and Sales, John L. Heider, Vice President of Engineering,
and Barry M. Salzman, Vice President, International, none of whom has entered
into an employment agreement with the Company. The loss of the services of one
or more of the Company's key personnel could have a material adverse effect on
the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. The
Company's future success also depends on its continuing ability to attract and
retain highly qualified technical, sales and marketing, customer support,
financial and accounting, and managerial personnel. Competition for such
personnel in the Internet industry is intense, and there can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to retain its key personnel or that it can
attract, assimilate or retain other highly qualified personnel in the future.
The Company has from time to time in the past experienced, and expects to
continue to experience in the future, difficulty in hiring and retaining
candidates with appropriate qualifications. See "Management".
 
                                       11
<PAGE>
DEPENDENCE ON THE WEB INFRASTRUCTURE
 
    The Company's success will depend, in large part, upon the maintenance of
the Web infrastructure, such as a reliable network backbone with the necessary
speed, data capacity and security, and timely development of enabling products
such as high speed modems, for providing reliable Web access and services and
improved content. To the extent that the Web continues to experience increased
numbers of users, frequency of use or increased bandwidth requirements of users,
there can be no assurance that the Web infrastructure will continue to be able
to support the demands placed on it or that the performance or reliability of
the Web will not be adversely affected. Furthermore, the Web has experienced a
variety of outages and other delays as a result of damage to portions of its
infrastructure, and such outages and delays could adversely affect the Web sites
of Web publishers utilizing the Company's solutions and the level of traffic on
such Web sites on the DoubleClick Network. In addition, the Web could lose its
viability as a form of media due to delays in the development or adoption of new
standards and protocols (for example, the next-generation Internet protocol)
that can handle increased levels of activity. There can be no assurance that the
infrastructure or complementary products or services necessary to establish and
maintain the Web as a viable commercial medium will be developed, or, if they
are developed, that the Web will become a viable commercial medium for
advertisers. If the necessary infrastructure, standards or protocols or
complementary products, services or facilities are not developed, or if the Web
does not become a viable commercial medium, the Company's business, results of
operations and financial condition will be materially and adversely affected.
Even if such infrastructure, standards or protocols or complementary products,
services or facilities are developed, there can be no assurance that the Company
will not be required to incur substantial expenditures in order to adapt its
solutions to changing or emerging technologies, which could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition. Moreover, critical issues concerning the commercial use and
government regulation of the Internet (including security, cost, ease of use and
access, intellectual property ownership and other legal liability issues) remain
unresolved and could materially and adversely impact both the growth of the
Internet and the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition.
 
DEPENDENCE ON PROPRIETARY RIGHTS; RISK OF INFRINGEMENT
 
    The Company regards its intellectual property as critical to its success,
and the Company relies upon patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws
in the United States and other jurisdictions to protect its proprietary rights.
The Company has filed one patent application with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office to protect certain aspects of its DART technology. The Company
pursues the protection of its trademarks by applying to register the trademarks
in the United States and (based upon anticipated use) internationally, and is
the owner of a registration for the DOUBLECLICK trademark in the United States.
There can be no assurance that any of the Company's trademark registrations or
patent applications will be approved or granted and, if they are granted, that
they will not be successfully challenged by others or invalidated through
administrative process or litigation. Further, if the Company's trademark
registrations are not approved or granted due to the prior issuance of
trademarks to third parties or for other reasons, there can be no assurance that
the Company would be able to enter into arrangements with such third parties on
commercially reasonable terms allowing the Company to continue to use such
trademarks. Patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be
available in every country in which the Company's solutions are distributed or
made available. In addition, the Company seeks to protect its proprietary rights
through the use of confidentiality agreements with employees, consultants,
advisors and others. There can be no assurance that such agreements will provide
adequate protection for the Company's proprietary rights in the event of any
unauthorized use or disclosure, that employees of the Company, consultants,
advisors or others will maintain the confidentiality of such proprietary
information, or that such proprietary information will not otherwise become
known, or be independently developed, by competitors. The Company's DART
technology
 
                                       12
<PAGE>
collects and utilizes data derived from user activity on the DoubleClick Network
and the Web sites of Web publishers using the Company's solutions. This data is
used for ad targeting and predicting ad performance. Although the Company
believes that it has the right to use such data and the compilation of such data
in the Company's database, there can be no assurance that any trade secret,
copyright or other protection will be available for such information or that
others will not claim rights to such information. Further, pursuant to its
contracts with Web publishers using the Company's solutions, the Company is
obligated to keep certain information regarding the Web publisher confidential.
 
    The Company has licensed in the past, and expects that it may license in the
future, elements of its trademarks, trade dress and similar proprietary rights
to third parties, including in connection with the establishment of its
international business relationships which may be controlled operationally by
such third parties. While the Company attempts to ensure that the quality of its
brand is maintained by such business partners, no assurances can be given that
such partners will not take actions that could materially and adversely affect
the value of the Company's proprietary rights or the reputation of its solutions
and technologies. The Company currently licenses certain aspects of its
predictive modeling technologies from a third party. The failure by the Company
to maintain this license, or to find a replacement for such technology in a
timely and cost-effective manner, could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
    Legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of
protection of certain proprietary rights in Internet-related industries are
uncertain and still evolving, and no assurance can be given as to the future
viability or value of any proprietary rights of the Company or other companies
within the industry. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by the
Company to protect its proprietary rights will be adequate or that third parties
will not infringe or misappropriate the Company's proprietary rights. Any such
infringement or misappropriation, should it occur, could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the Company's business activities
will not infringe upon the proprietary rights of others, or that other parties
will not assert infringement claims against the Company. From time to time the
Company has been, and expects to continue to be, subject to claims in the
ordinary course of its business, including claims of alleged infringement of the
trademarks and other intellectual property rights of third parties by the
Company and its business partners. Although such claims have not resulted in
litigation or had a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results
of operations or financial condition, such claims and any resultant litigation,
should it occur, could subject the Company to significant liability for damages
and could result in invalidation of the Company's proprietary rights and, even
if not meritorious, could be time-consuming and expensive to defend, and could
result in the diversion of management time and attention, any of which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations
and financial condition. See "Business -- Intellectual Property".
 
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE
 
    The market in which the Company competes is characterized by rapidly
changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent new product and
service announcements, introductions and enhancements, and changing customer
demands. These market characteristics are heightened by the emerging nature of
the Web and Internet advertising. Accordingly, the Company's future success will
depend on its ability to adapt to rapidly changing technologies, its ability to
adapt its solutions to meet evolving industry standards and its ability to
continually improve the performance, features and reliability of its solutions
in response to both changing customer demands and competitive product and
service offerings. The failure of the Company to successfully adapt to such
changes in a timely manner could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, there can
be no assurance that the Company will not experience difficulties that could
delay or prevent the successful design, development, testing, introduction or
marketing of solutions, or
 
                                       13
<PAGE>
that any new solutions or enhancements to existing solutions will adequately
meet the requirements of its current and prospective customers and achieve any
degree of significant market acceptance. If the Company is unable, for
technological or other reasons, to develop and introduce new solutions or
enhancements to existing solutions in a timely manner or in response to changing
market conditions or customer requirements, or if its solutions or enhancements
contain errors or do not achieve a significant degree of market acceptance, the
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition would be
materially and adversely affected.
 
RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION
 
    The Company has recently commenced operations in a number of international
markets and a component of the Company's strategy is to continue to expand its
international operations and international sales and marketing efforts. To date,
the Company has limited experience in developing localized versions of its
solutions and in marketing, selling and distributing its solutions
internationally. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
successfully market, sell and deliver its solutions in these markets. In Japan,
Iberoamerica (Spain, Portugal and Latin America) and Scandinavia, the Company is
relying on its business partners for conducting operations, establishing local
networks, aggregating Web publishers and coordinating sales and marketing
efforts. The Company's agreements with its business partners have terms ranging
from two to four years. Accordingly, the Company's success in such markets is
directly dependent on the success of its business partners in such activities.
No assurance can be given that such business partners will be successful or that
such business partners will dedicate sufficient resources to the business
relationship. The failure of the Company's business partners to successfully
establish operations and sales and marketing efforts in such markets could have
a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition.
 
    There are certain risks inherent in doing business in international markets,
such as unexpected changes in regulatory requirements, potentially adverse tax
consequences, export restrictions, export controls relating to encryption
technology, tariffs and other trade barriers, difficulties in staffing and
managing foreign operations, political instability, fluctuations in currency
exchange rates, and seasonal reductions in business activity during the summer
months in Europe and certain other parts of the world, any of which could have a
material adverse effect on the success of the Company's international operations
and, consequently, on the Company's business, results of operations and
financial condition.
 
GOVERNMENT REGULATION AND LEGAL UNCERTAINTIES
 
    Due to concerns arising in connection with the increasing popularity and use
of the Web, a number of laws and regulations may be adopted covering issues such
as user privacy, pricing, characteristics, acceptable content, taxation and
quality of products and services. Such legislation could dampen the growth in
use of the Web generally and decrease the acceptance of the Web as a
communications and commercial medium, which could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition. In
addition, because the growing popularity and use of the Web has burdened the
existing telecommunications infrastructure and many areas with high Web use have
begun to experience interruptions in phone service, certain local telephone
carriers have petitioned governmental bodies to regulate Internet service
providers ("ISPs") and online service providers ("OSPs") in a manner similar to
long distance telephone carriers and to impose access fees on ISPs and OSPs. If
any of these petitions or the relief sought therein is granted, the costs of
communicating on the Web could increase substantially, potentially adversely
affecting the growth in use of the Web. Further, due to the global nature of the
Web, it is possible that, although transmissions relating to the Company's
solutions originate in the State of New York, the governments of other states or
foreign countries might attempt to regulate the Company's transmissions or levy
sales or other taxes relating to the Company's activities. There can be no
assurance that violations of local laws will not be alleged or charged by state
 
                                       14
<PAGE>
or foreign governments, that the Company might not unintentionally violate such
laws or that such laws will not be modified, or new laws enacted, in the future.
Any of the foregoing developments could have a material adverse effect on the
Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
 
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE; REGISTRATION RIGHTS
 
    Sales of significant amounts of Common Stock in the public market after the
offering or the perception that such sales will occur could materially and
adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock or the future ability of
the Company to raise capital through an offering of its equity securities. Of
the 14,631,968 shares of Common Stock to be outstanding upon the closing of the
offering, the 2,300,000 shares offered hereby will be eligible for immediate
sale in the public market without restriction unless the shares are purchased by
"affiliates" of the Company within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The remaining
12,331,968 shares of Common Stock held by existing stockholders upon the closing
of the offering will be "restricted securities" as that term is defined in Rule
144 under the Securities Act. Restricted securities may be sold in the public
market only if registered or if they qualify for an exemption from registration
under Rules 144, 144(k) or 701 promulgated under the Securities Act. The
Company's directors and officers and certain of its stockholders have agreed
that they will not sell, directly or indirectly, any Common Stock without the
prior consent of the representatives of the Underwriters for a period of 180
days from the date of this Prospectus. Subject to these lock-up agreements and
the provisions of Rules 144, 144(k) and 701, additional shares will be available
for sale in the public market (subject in the case of shares held by affiliates
to compliance with certain volume restrictions) as follows: (i) 155,250 shares
will be eligible for sale 90 days after the date of this Prospectus and (ii)
12,180,571 shares will be eligible for sale upon the expiration of lock-up
agreements 180 days after the date of this Prospectus, including 783,163 shares
issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options. The remaining shares
will be eligible for sale in the public market from time to time after the
expiration of the lock-up agreements. In addition, certain stockholders,
representing approximately 11,552,658 shares of Common Stock, and certain
optionholders, with respect to an aggregate of 2,048,105 shares of Common Stock
issuable upon the exercise of stock options, have the right, subject to certain
conditions, to include their shares in future registration statements relating
to the Company's securities and/or to cause the Company to register certain
shares of Common Stock owned by them.
 
    After the date of this Prospectus, the Company intends to file a Form S-8
registration statement under the Securities Act to register all shares of Common
Stock issuable under the Company's 1997 Stock Incentive Plan. Such registration
statement is expected to become effective immediately upon filing, and shares
covered by that registration statement will thereupon be eligible for sale in
the public markets, subject to certain lock-up agreements and Rule 144
limitations applicable to affiliates. See "Management -- Stock Plans",
"Description of Securities -- Registration Rights", "Shares Eligible for Future
Sale" and "Underwriting".
 
NO PRIOR PUBLIC MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK; POSSIBLE VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE
 
    Prior to the offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that an active trading market for the
Common Stock will develop or be sustained upon the closing of the offering or
that the market price of the Common Stock will not decline below the initial
public offering price. The initial public offering price will be determined by
negotiations between the Company and the representatives of the Underwriters.
See "Underwriting".
 
    The trading price of the Company's Common Stock could be subject to wide
fluctuations in response to variations in quarterly results of operations, the
gain or loss of significant advertisers or Web publisher customers, changes in
earning estimates by analysts, announcements of technological innovations or new
solutions by the Company or its competitors, general conditions in
Internet-related industries and other events or factors, many of which are
beyond the Company's control. In addition, the
 
                                       15
<PAGE>
stock market in general has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations
which have affected the market price for many companies in industries similar or
related to that of the Company and which have been unrelated to the operating
performance of these companies. These market fluctuations may have a material
adverse effect on the market price of the Company's Common Stock.
 
CONTROL BY PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS, OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS
 
    Upon the closing of the offering, the directors and executive officers and
their affiliates will beneficially own approximately 58.0% of the outstanding
Common Stock (56.7% if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in
full). As a result, these stockholders will be able to exercise control over all
matters requiring stockholder approval, including the election of directors and
approval of significant corporate transactions. This concentration of ownership
may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control of the
Company. See "Management" and "Principal Stockholders".
 
ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF CERTAIN CHARTER, BYLAWS AND DELAWARE LAW PROVISIONS;
  POSSIBLE ISSUANCE OF PREFERRED STOCK
 
    Upon receipt of the requisite Board of Directors and stockholder approvals,
and following the closing of the offering, the Company's Board of Directors will
have the authority to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock without
any further vote or action by the stockholders, and to determine the price,
rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions, including voting rights of
such shares. Since the Preferred Stock could be issued with voting, liquidation,
dividend and other rights superior to those of the Common Stock, the rights of
the holders of Common Stock will be subject to, and may be adversely affected
by, the rights of the holders of any such Preferred Stock. The issuance of
Preferred Stock could have the effect of making it more difficult for a third
party to acquire a majority of the outstanding voting stock of the Company.
Further, certain provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation,
including provisions that create a classified Board of Directors, and certain
provisions of the Company's Bylaws and of Delaware law could have the effect of
delaying or preventing a change in control of the Company. See "Description of
Securities -- Anti-Takover Effects of Certain Provisions of Delaware Law and the
Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws".
 
DILUTION
 
    Investors purchasing shares of Common Stock in the offering will incur
immediate and substantial dilution in net tangible book value per share. To the
extent outstanding options to purchase Common Stock are exercised, there will be
further dilution. See "Dilution".

<PAGE>
                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
    The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 2,300,000 shares of
Common Stock offered pursuant to the offering are estimated to be approximately
$27.1 million ($31.2 million if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is
exercised in full), assuming an initial public offering price of $13.00 per
share and after deducting the underwriting discount and estimated offering
expenses payable by the Company. The primary purposes of the offering are to
create a public market for the Common Stock, to facilitate the Company's future
access to public equity markets and to obtain additional working capital.
 
    The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for general
corporate purposes, including working capital, and for the expansion of its
international operations and sales and marketing capabilities. In addition, the
Company may use a portion of the net proceeds of the offering to acquire or
invest in complementary businesses, technologies, services or products, although
there are no current agreements or negotiations with respect to any such
acquisitions, investments or other transactions.
 
    Pending such uses, the net proceeds will be invested in short-term,
investment grade instruments, certificates of deposit or direct or guaranteed
obligations of the United States.
 
                                DIVIDEND POLICY
 
    The Company has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its capital stock
since inception and does not expect to pay any cash dividends for the
foreseeable future. The Company currently intends to retain future earnings, if
any, to finance the expansion of its business.

                                    DILUTION
 
    The pro forma net tangible book value of the Company's Common Stock as of
September 30, 1997 was $12.8 million, or $1.04 per share of Common Stock, after
giving effect to the Preferred Stock Conversion and the Note Conversion. Pro
forma net tangible book value per share is equal to the amount of the Company's
total tangible assets less total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding as of September 30, 1997. Assuming the sale by the
Company of 2,300,000 shares of Common Stock offered hereby at an assumed initial
public offering price of $13.00 per share and the application of the estimated
net proceeds therefrom, the pro forma net tangible book value of the Company as
of September 30, 1997 would have been $39.9 million, or $2.73 per share of
Common Stock. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible
book value of $1.69 per share to existing stockholders and an immediate dilution
in pro forma net tangible book value of $10.27 per share to new investors. The
following table illustrates this per share dilution:

    THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION OF THE FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF
OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE RELATED NOTES THERETO INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS
PROSPECTUS. THIS DISCUSSION CONTAINS FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THE COMPANY'S ACTUAL RESULTS MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM
THOSE ANTICIPATED IN THESE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF CERTAIN
FACTORS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE SET FORTH UNDER "RISK FACTORS" AND
ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS.
 
OVERVIEW
 
    DoubleClick is a leading provider of comprehensive Internet advertising
solutions for advertisers and Web publishers. The Company offers three distinct
Internet advertising solutions: (i) the DoubleClick Network, launched in March
1996; (ii) DoubleClick's DART Service, marketed to Web publishers since January
1997; and (iii) DoubleClick Direct, an Internet-based direct marketing solution
introduced on a limited basis in September 1997. DoubleClick's proprietary DART
technology, which dynamically matches and delivers ads to a target audience
within milliseconds, is the platform for all of the Company's solutions.
 
    The Company was formed in January 1996 through the contribution of assets by
Kevin J. O'Connor, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Dwight A. Merriman,
the Company's Chief Technical Officer, and the DoubleClick Division of Poppe
Tyson, a subsidiary of Bozell, Jacobs, Kenyon & Eckhardt, Inc. ("Poppe Tyson").
The Company has grown from 13 employees as of March 31, 1996 to 171 employees as
of December 1, 1997. From January 23, 1996 (inception) through May 1996, the
Company's operating activities related primarily to developing the DART
technology and the DoubleClick Network, and recruiting personnel. During the
same period, substantially all of the Company's revenues resulted from Internet
advertising sales on a commission basis on behalf of the Netscape and Excite Web
sites. For the period from January 23, 1996 (inception) through December 31,
1996, such commissions constituted 16.5% of the Company's revenues. All ads sold
on behalf of the Netscape and Excite Web sites were delivered directly by such
entities, as their Web sites were not on the DoubleClick Network. The Company no
longer arranges for the placement of advertisements on a commission basis.
 
    Beginning in the fourth quarter of 1996, revenues from advertisements
delivered on the DoubleClick Network became a more significant portion of
revenues and, since the addition of the AltaVista Web site to the DoubleClick
Network in late December 1996, the Company has derived substantially all of its
revenues from the DoubleClick Network. The Company offers advertising on the
DoubleClick Network to third party advertisers with pricing determined on a CPM
(cost per thousand ads delivered) basis. Discounts are offered based on a
variety of factors, including the duration and gross dollar amount of
advertising campaigns. Advertisements delivered by the Company are typically
sold pursuant to purchase order agreements which are subject to cancellation.
The Company's revenues are received from the advertiser that orders the ad, and
the Company pays the Web publisher on whose Web site such advertisement is
delivered a service fee calculated as a percentage of such revenues, which
amount is included in cost of revenues. The Company is responsible for billing
and collecting for ads delivered on the DoubleClick Network and typically
assumes the risk of non-payment from advertisers. In addition, the Company earns
service fees for providing the DART Service to Web publishers. DoubleClick
Direct advertising is priced on a "cost-per-click", "cost-per-lead" and
"cost-per-sale or download" basis. To date, revenues from DoubleClick's DART
Service and DoubleClick Direct have not been significant.
 
    Advertising revenues are recognized in the period that the advertisement is
delivered, provided that no significant obligations remain and collection of the
resulting receivable is probable. The Company has recently started to sell
sponsorship advertising, which involves a greater degree of integration among
the Company, the advertiser and the Web sites on the DoubleClick Network. These
sponsorships
 
                                       21
<PAGE>
are typically priced based on the length of time that the sponsorship runs,
rather than a CPM basis. Revenues relating to sponsorship advertising are
recognized ratably over the sponsorship period.
 
    The Company expects that revenues generated from the DoubleClick Network
will continue to account for a substantial portion of the Company's revenues for
the foreseeable future. Moreover, ads delivered on the Web sites of the top four
Web publishers on the DoubleClick Network accounted for approximately 60.0% of
the Company's revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The Company
typically enters into short-term contracts with Web publishers for inclusion of
their Web sites in the DoubleClick Network. The failure to successfully market
the DoubleClick Network, the loss of one or more of the Web sites which account
for a significant portion of the Company's revenues from the DoubleClick
Network, or any reduction in traffic on such Web sites could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition.
 
    In December 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with Digital
Equipment Corporation to be the exclusive third-party provider of advertising
services on specified pages within the AltaVista Web site. While the stated term
of the agreement expires in December 1998, either party may terminate the
agreement upon 90 days' prior written notice. DoubleClick pays AltaVista a
service fee calculated as a percentage of the revenues derived from delivery of
advertisements on the AltaVista Web site, which percentage is subject to
adjustment from time to time based on the achievement of certain quarterly
revenue goals. Revenues from advertisements delivered on the AltaVista Web site
were $8.5 million, or 42.8% of the Company's revenues for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. AltaVista is a significant part of the DoubleClick Network
and is expected to continue to account for a significant portion of the
Company's revenues for the next few years. The loss of AltaVista as part of the
DoubleClick Network, any reduction in traffic on the AltaVista Web site, or a
termination of AltaVista's contract with the Company, would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial
condition.
 
    The Company has incurred significant losses since its inception, and as of
September 30, 1997 had an accumulated deficit of $32.8 million, of which $7.8
million related to cumulative losses and $25.0 million related to the redemption
of shares of Common Stock from certain stockholders in connection with the
recapitalization of the Company that occurred simultaneously with the issuance
of Convertible Preferred Stock to new investors in June 1997. In addition, the
Company has recorded deferred compensation of $1.5 million, which represents the
difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the Company's
Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of certain stock options granted to
employees. Of the total deferred compensation amount, $0.2 million was amortized
during the nine months ended September 30, 1997. The remaining deferred
compensation amount will be amortized over the remaining vesting periods of the
related options. The Company believes that period-to-period comparisons of its
operating results are not meaningful and that the results for any period should
not be relied upon as an indication of future performance. The Company currently
expects to significantly increase its operating expenses in order to expand its
sales and marketing operations, to continue to expand internationally, to
upgrade and enhance its DART technology and to market and support its solutions.
As a result of these factors, there can be no assurance that the Company will
not incur significant losses on a quarterly and annual basis for the foreseeable
future.

    REVENUES
 
    The Company's revenues are derived primarily from the delivery of
advertisements on the Web sites of Web publishers on the DoubleClick Network.
Revenues increased from $2.7 million for the period from January 23, 1996
(inception) through September 30, 1996 to $19.7 million for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997. During the period from January 23, 1996 (inception)
through September 30, 1996, $1.0 million of the Company's revenues were derived
from commissions received from the sale of advertising that was placed on the
Web sites of Netscape and Excite. Revenues recognized from commissions for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997 were not material and the Company no longer
expects to recognize revenues on a commission basis. The increase in revenues
was due primarily to an increase in the number of advertisers and ads delivered
on the DoubleClick Network, and to the addition of the AltaVista Web site to the
DoubleClick Network in December 1996. Revenues earned during the nine months
ended September 30, 1997 from advertisements delivered on the AltaVista Web site
were $8.5 million, or 42.8% of revenues. AltaVista is a significant part of the
DoubleClick Network and is expected to continue to account for a significant
portion of the Company's revenues for the next few years. For the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, only one advertiser, Microsoft, accounted for
approximately 10.1% of revenues. To date, the Company has not derived
significant revenues from its DART Service, DoubleClick Direct or international
operations.
 
    COST OF REVENUES
 
    Cost of revenues consists primarily of service fees paid to Web publishers
calculated as a percentage of revenues resulting from ads delivered to the Web
sites on the DoubleClick Network. Cost of revenues also includes other costs of
delivering advertisements, including depreciation of the ad delivery system and
Internet access costs. Gross margins were 55.8% and 33.6% for the period from
January 23, 1996 (inception) through September 30, 1996 and for nine months
ended September 30, 1997, respectively. Gross margins decreased in 1997 due to
the shift in the Company's revenue mix away from the sale of advertisements on a
commission basis on behalf of the Web sites of Netscape and Excite.

    OPERATING EXPENSES
 
    SALES AND MARKETING.  Sales and marketing expenses consist primarily of
salaries, commissions, advertising, maintenance of DoubleClick's Web site, trade
show expenses, seminars and costs of marketing materials. Sales and marketing
expenses were $1.5 million and $6.6 million for the period from January 23, 1996
(inception) through September 30, 1996 and for the nine months ended September
30, 1997, respectively, or 55.3% and 33.6% of revenues, respectively. The
increase in absolute dollars was due primarily to the increase in sales
personnel, commissions and costs related to the continued development and
implementation of the Company's marketing and branding campaigns. The Company
expects sales and marketing expenses to increase significantly on an absolute
dollar basis but remain relatively constant as a percentage of revenues as the
Company hires additional personnel, expands into new markets and continues to
promote the DoubleClick brand.
 
    GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  General and administrative expenses consist
primarily of salaries and fees for professional services. General and
administrative expenses were $1.1 million and $3.6 million for the period from
January 23, 1996 (inception) through September 30, 1996 and for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, respectively, or 42.3% and 18.4% of revenues,
respectively. The increase in absolute dollars was primarily a result of
expenses related to increased personnel, professional service fees and facility
expenses necessary to support the Company's domestic and international growth.
The Company expects general and administrative expenses to increase on an
absolute dollar basis but decrease as a percentage of revenues as the Company
hires additional personnel and incurs additional costs related to the growth of
its business and its operations as a public company.
 
    PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT.  Product development expenses consist primarily of
compensation and consulting expenses and related supplies and materials. To
date, all product development costs have been expensed as incurred. Product
development expenses were $0.3 million and $1.0 million for the period from
January 23, 1996 (inception) through September 30, 1996 and for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, respectively, or 12.6% and 5.2% of revenues,
respectively. The increase in absolute dollars was due primarily to increases in
product development personnel and consulting expenses. Product development
expenses incurred during the nine months ended September 30, 1997 were primarily
related to enhancements to the DART technology and the development of
DoubleClick Direct. The Company believes that continued investment in product
development is critical to attaining its strategic objectives and, as a result,
expects product development expenses to increase significantly on an absolute
dollar basis but remain relatively constant as a percentage of revenues.
 
    LOSS FROM OPERATIONS
 
    The Company's loss from operations was $1.5 million for the period from
January 23, 1996 (inception) through September 30, 1996 and $4.6 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1997. The increase in the loss from operations
was primarily due to the hiring of additional personnel in all areas of the
Company as it continued to build its infrastructure, expand its markets and
increase its brand awareness. The Company expects to continue to hire additional
personnel and increase its spending for marketing and other infrastructure
needs. As a result, the Company expects that operating expenses and the loss
from operations may increase on an absolute dollar basis and decrease as a
percentage of revenues.

    The Company's revenues have increased in all quarters presented as a result
of increased market acceptance of the DoubleClick Network after its launch in
March 1996. In December 1996, the Company added the AltaVista Web site to the
DoubleClick Network and revenues from delivery of advertisements on the
AltaVista Web site commenced in the first quarter of 1997. Cost of revenues as a
percentage of revenues increased throughout the quarters presented, except for
the first quarter of 1997, resulting from a shift in the Company's revenue mix
away from selling advertisements on behalf of third-party Web sites to
delivering advertisements across the DoubleClick Network. In the first quarter
of 1997, the Company recognized additional revenues from commissions relating to
the final delivery of ads that were ordered in 1996. The Company no longer
arranges for the placement of advertisements, nor does it expect to recognize
any future revenues, on a commission basis.

    Operating expenses have increased in each of the quarters presented. Sales
and marketing expenses have increased as a result of increased sales personnel
and commissions and advertising and promotion. The Company's sales and marketing
organization has grown from 8 employees as of March 31, 1996 to 83 employees as
of September 30, 1997. General and administrative expenses have increased due
primarily to additional personnel, professional fees and facilities costs. In
the third quarter of 1997, general and administrative fees increased due in part
to legal costs associated with the Company's international expansion and
litigation costs relating to the Company's lawsuit against two former employees
for misappropriation of trade secrets. This litigation was settled in the fourth
quarter of 1997. Product development expenses have increased as a result of
continued enhancements to the DART technology and development of new solutions
such as the DART Service and DoubleClick Direct.
 
    The Company's results of operations may fluctuate significantly in the
future as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the
Company's control. See "Risk Factors -- Potential Fluctuations in Quarterly
Operating Results; Seasonality".
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    Since its inception, the Company has financed its operations primarily
through the private placement of equity securities and borrowings from a related
party. In June 1997, the Company completed a private placement of equity
securities to new investors and received $39.8 million in net proceeds, of which
$25.0 million was used to redeem shares of Common Stock from certain
stockholders. As of September 30, 1997, the Company had aggregate borrowings
from a related party of $5.0 million in the form of a Convertible Promissory
Note due June 4, 2000, bearing interest at the Federal Short-Term Rate, 5.8% as
of September 30, 1997 (the "Convertible Note"). See "Certain
Transactions--Convertible Note".
 
    Net cash used in operating activities was $3.4 million and $2.1 million for
the period from January 23, 1996 (inception) through December 31, 1996 and for
the nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively. Cash used in operating
activities from January 23, 1996 (inception) through September 30, 1997 resulted
from net operating losses and increases in accounts receivable, which were
partially offset by increases in deferred revenues, accrued expenses and
accounts payable. In September 1997, the Company entered into an agreement to
establish DoubleClick Japan, Inc. for the purpose of forming a DoubleClick
Network in Japan. DoubleClick Japan, Inc. is a business relationship entered
into by the Company with Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Corporation, Trans
Cosmos, Inc., and NTT Advertising Inc. The Company received an initial payment
of $0.5 million for certain fees relating to the use of the DoubleClick
tradename and the right to access the Company's DART technology. The Company has
a 10% ownership position in this business relationship. As of September 30,
1997, no revenues had been recognized related to DoubleClick Japan, Inc.
 
    Net cash used in investing activities was $0.5 million and $9.8 million from
January 23, 1996 (inception) through December 31, 1996 and for the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, respectively. Cash used in investing activities was
primarily related to purchases of short-term investments, investments in
business partners and purchases of property and equipment.
 
    Cash provided by financing activities of $3.9 million from January 23, 1996
(inception) through December 31, 1996 consisted primarily of $3.3 million in
borrowings from a related party and $0.6 million in proceeds from the issuance
of Common Stock at inception. Net cash provided by financing activities of $16.5
million for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 primarily consisted of net
proceeds from the sale of $39.8 million of Convertible Preferred Stock, of which
$25.0 million was paid to redeem Common Stock held by certain stockholders, and
borrowings from a related party pursuant to the Convertible Note.

    As of September 30, 1997, the Company had $4.6 million of cash and cash
equivalents and $8.1 million in short-term investments. The Company's principal
commitments consisted of obligations under the Convertible Note and obligations
under operating leases.
 
    Although the Company has no material commitments for capital expenditures,
management anticipates that it will experience a substantial increase in its
capital expenditures and lease commitments consistent with its anticipated
growth in operations, infrastructure and personnel. The Company currently
anticipates that it will continue to experience significant growth in its
operating expenses for the foreseeable future and that its operating expenses
will be a material use of the Company's cash resources. The Company believes
that the net proceeds of the offering, together with its existing cash and cash
equivalents and short-term investments, will be sufficient to meet its
anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital expenditures for at least
the next twelve months.

THE COMPANY
 
    DoubleClick is a leading provider of comprehensive Internet advertising
solutions for advertisers and Web publishers. The Company's technology and media
expertise enable it to dynamically deliver highly targeted, measurable and
cost-effective Internet advertising for advertisers and to increase ad sales and
improve ad space inventory management for Web publishers. DoubleClick offers
three distinct Internet advertising solutions: (i) the DoubleClick Network, a
leading Internet advertising network which provides ad delivery and related
services to over 60 Web sites, including AltaVista, The Dilbert Zone, Macromedia
and U.S. News and World Report; (ii) DoubleClick's DART (Dynamic Advertising
Reporting and Targeting) Service, an Internet advertising management solution
for Web publishers with internal ad sales forces, which is currently being
utilized by over 20 Web publishers, including NBC, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL
INTERACTIVE EDITION, RealNetworks and THE SPORTING NEWS; and (iii) DoubleClick
Direct, the Company's recently introduced advertising solution designed
specifically for direct marketers.
 
    DoubleClick's proprietary DART technology provides the platform for the
Company's solutions. This technology enables advertisers to optimize ad
performance by dynamically targeting and delivering ads to Web users based on
pre-selected criteria. As a user visits the Web sites of Web publishers which
utilize the Company's solutions, DART collects information regarding the user
and his or her viewing activities and ad responses, and applies this data to
improve its ability to predict the user's reaction and enhance DART's ad
targeting capabilities. The sophisticated tracking and reporting functionality
incorporated into DART provides advertisers with accurate measurements of ad
performance based on selected criteria. In addition, DART provides Web
publishers with sophisticated ad space inventory management capabilities.
 
    In  November 1997, the Company estimates that more than 20 million users
visited the Web sites of Web publishers which utilized the Company's solutions,
resulting in an aggregate of over 900 million impressions. During the same
period, DoubleClick managed approximately 7,000 Internet advertisements for over
600 advertisers, and over 100 Web publishers representing an aggregate of
approximately 350 Web sites utilized the Company's Internet advertising
solutions.
 
INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
 
    THE INTERNET AND THE WEB
 
    The Internet and the Web have enjoyed unprecedented growth in recent years.
IDC estimates that by the end of 1997 there will be over 29 million Web users in
the United States and over 50 million users worldwide, and the number of Web
users is expected to increase to 72 million in the United States and 129 million
worldwide by the end of 2000. Web users are spending an increasing amount of
time on the Web, and according to a recent study by the Georgia Institute of
Technology, as of April 1997, an estimated 51% of Internet users access the
Internet for 10 or more hours a week. The growth in the number of Web users and
the amount of time users spend on the Web is expected to continue as new
technologies, such as multimedia capabilities, are developed and adopted, as Web
access and bandwidth increase, and as Internet content improves and becomes more
dynamic.
 
    The Company believes that as electronic commerce increases, advertisers and
direct marketers will increasingly seek to use the Web to locate customers,
advertise and facilitate transactions. Online transactions can be faster, less
expensive and more convenient than transactions conducted via human interaction.
A growing number of users have transacted business over the Web, including
trading securities, buying goods, purchasing airline tickets and paying bills.
According to an A.C. Nielsen study, over 20% of United States Internet users
have made a purchase over the Web. IDC estimates that purchases of goods and
services over the Internet are expected to increase from $2.6 billion in 1996 to
$220 billion in 2001.

    INTERNET ADVERTISING
 
    The Web is emerging as an attractive new medium for advertisers due to the
growth in the number of Web users, the amount of time such users spend on the
Web, the increase in electronic commerce, the interactive nature of the Web, the
Web's global reach and a variety of other factors. Internet users generally have
demographic profiles advertisers desire. According to the Georgia Institute of
Technology, in 1997, an estimated 47% of Internet users had a college degree,
67% were between the ages of 18 and 44 and their mean household income was
$53,000. The interactive nature of the Web gives advertisers the potential to
establish dialogues and one-to-one relationships with potential customers,
receive direct feedback on their advertising and adapt their advertising to
respond to such feedback. The Web also provides advertisers with the opportunity
to reach broad, global audiences, since Web sites can be accessed from anywhere
in the world, and to target their advertising to populations within specific
regions or countries, to users with desirable demographic characteristics, and
to people with specific interests. Internet advertising also has the potential
to offer advertisers the ability to measure the number of times that a
particular advertisement has been viewed, the responses to the advertisement and
certain demographic characteristics of the viewers of the advertisement.
Accordingly, the Company believes that Web advertising has the potential to be a
cost-effective means of reaching a significant number of users with desirable
characteristics.
 
    The unique characteristics of Internet advertising, combined with the growth
in the number of Internet users and their attractive demographic profiles, has
led to a significant increase in Internet advertising. IDC estimates that the
dollar value of Internet advertising in the United States will increase from
$551 million in 1997 to $4.0 billion in 2001, representing a 64% compounded
annual growth rate. In comparison, in 1997, IDC estimates that $175 billion will
be spent on traditional media (television, radio, cable and print) advertising
in the United States. To date, the leading Internet advertisers have been
technology companies, search engines and Web publishers. However, many of the
largest advertisers on traditional media, including consumer products companies,
automobile manufacturers and others, have expanded their use of Internet
advertising, and the Company believes that Internet advertising will become an
increasing component of their total advertising budgets.
 
    DIRECT MARKETING
 
    The Company believes that the Internet represents an attractive new medium
for direct marketing, which has traditionally been conducted through direct mail
and telemarketing, because highly targeted product offers can be made to
consumers at the point-of-sale. The success of a direct marketing campaign is
generally based on a direct marketer's return on investment which is measured by
the response rate (e.g. number of leads, number of sales) and cost-per-response.
According to the Direct Marketing Association, in 1997, an estimated $153
billion will be spent on direct marketing in the United States. The Internet has
the potential to provide direct marketers with the ability to target and deliver
direct marketing campaigns to users with specific characteristics and interests.
In addition, unlike many of the traditional methods of direct marketing, the
Internet provides direct marketers with the opportunity to contact consumers at
the point-of-sale (i.e., their personal computers). Jupiter Communications
estimates that revenues from direct marketing over the Internet will exceed $1.3
billion in 2002.

THE MARKETS FOR INTERNET ADVERTISING SOLUTIONS
 
    ADVERTISERS
 
    As a medium for advertisers and advertising agencies, the Internet offers a
number of significant advantages over traditional media which the Company
believes will lead to significant increases in overall Internet advertising
spending. Advertising on the Internet provides advertisers with the opportunity
to:
 
    REACH HIGHLY TARGETED AUDIENCES.  The Internet has the unique capability to
provide advertisers with the ability to accurately and automatically target
their ads to users with specific interests and characteristics. Information
about the user's geographic location, ISP, browser type, operating system and
type and size of employer can be obtained through a user's interactions on the
Web, regardless of the type of Web site they are viewing, and this information
can be utilized by advertisers to target their ads. Web users specify their
interests by visiting Web sites with content focused on specific interests, such
as sports, travel, news, business and finance and entertainment. In addition,
these users visit and utilize search engines to find Web sites and information
on specific topics, further identifying their unique interests.
 
    AGGREGATE AD PURCHASING.  Large advertising campaigns are time-consuming,
difficult to manage, and can require media purchasers at advertising agencies to
contact large numbers of media outlets in order to place advertisements.
Networks of Web sites can provide centralized Internet ad purchasing and
alleviate the need to make a series of small ad purchases from numerous Web
publishers.
 
    ACCESS INTERNATIONAL, NATIONAL AND LOCAL MARKETS.  Traditional media
providers are constrained in their ability to provide advertisers with worldwide
access to consumers since most broadcasters and print publishers only operate in
their home countries or in limited geographic regions. Since the Internet is not
limited by geographical boundaries, and since IDC estimates that 35% of Internet
usage is outside of the United States, the Internet provides a significant media
outlet for the global marketplace. Because of its ability to target ads based on
a user's geographic location, the Internet also offers the ability to reach
audiences across international, national and local markets.
 
    IMPROVE ADVERTISING ACCOUNTABILITY AND PERFORMANCE.  Advertisers desire
accurate and timely tracking, measurement and reporting of ad performance. Since
ad performance on traditional media is measured through sampling and estimates,
accurate ad performance accountability is difficult. Unlike traditional forms of
media, the Internet offers the opportunity to accurately track each Web user
that is delivered an advertisement and to determine and record a broad range of
information about such user. The Web can also offer advertisers the analytical
tools required to evaluate and optimize ad effectiveness, as well as the ability
to promptly change ad placements and the creative content of advertisements.
 
    PROVIDE ENHANCED DIRECT MARKETING CAPABILITIES.  Direct marketers require
information about the recipients of an ad who respond with a specific action,
such as seeking further information or buying a product. In addition, direct
marketers are seeking to improve the return on their investment by adopting more
cost-effective methods to reach their target consumers. The Internet may be a
more cost-effective way to reach consumers than other direct marketing
approaches, including direct mail. As a media outlet, the Internet offers the
unique opportunity to advertise on a one-to-one basis at the point-of-sale. To
become an attractive medium for direct marketers, direct marketing campaigns on
the Internet must be targeted to users that are most likely to respond and a
method to accurately track direct marketing expenditures on a cost-per-action
basis must be available.
 
                                       30
<PAGE>
    WEB PUBLISHERS
 
    As a result of the growth in the number of Web users, the advent of open,
easy-to-use authoring software and the anticipated increase in Internet
commerce, many businesses and organizations are establishing Web sites. A number
of these Web publishers are attempting to support, or profit from, their Web
sites by selling Internet advertising. Such Web publishers are seeking
advertising solutions that enable them to:
 
    INCREASE WEB ADVERTISING SALES.  Many Web publishers may not have the
experience or personnel to effectively sell ad space on their Web sites and are
unable to gain access to media buyers at large advertising agencies. Building an
internal ad sales force can be difficult and expensive due, in part, to the
increasing competition for experienced Internet ad sales personnel. Further, the
time and expense required to hire an internal ad sales force, commence ad sales
activities, and bill and collect ad sales revenues can have a significant impact
on the viability of a Web site. As a result, many Web publishers are seeking to
outsource their ad sales and delivery functions to Internet advertising
solutions providers with extensive, established sales organizations. By
outsourcing their ad sales and delivery functions, Web publishers can start
receiving ad revenues faster and can greatly reduce or eliminate related
expenditures. In addition, the Company believes that Web publishers with
effective national ad sales organizations may seek to outsource their
international or local sales functions to Internet solutions providers that are
knowledgeable about the target markets and that have the necessary critical mass
in such markets for a successful sales effort.
 
    MANAGE WEB ADVERTISING OPERATIONS.  Many Web publishers cannot afford, or do
not have the ability to operate and maintain, the servers and technology
necessary for targeted Web advertising. Installing an ad server can take several
months and results in significant out-of-pocket expenses. In addition, once an
ad server is purchased and installed, the Web publisher assumes responsibility
for the server's upgrades and maintenance. Most basic ad servers do not provide
ad targeting capabilities and do not offer sophisticated tracking, reporting and
billing functionality. Moreover, if a Web publisher operates an ad server
independently from a network of other Web sites, the amount of information
available to build an effective database regarding Web users and their response
patterns will be limited and may be insufficient for purposes of sophisticated
ad targeting. As a result, Web publishers may seek to outsource Web advertising
operations in order to reduce costs and enhance their ad targeting capabilities.
 
    ENABLE EFFECTIVE AD SPACE INVENTORY MANAGEMENT.  Many Web sites contain
multiple pages and handle thousands of page views every day, providing a large
inventory of Internet advertising space which is difficult for the Web publisher
to manage. By targeting advertising towards specific ad space within their Web
sites, Web publishers can increase the effectiveness of the ads delivered on
their Web sites, thereby increasing the value of their ad space. In order to
derive value from all of their available advertising space, Web publishers may
seek alternatives to selling their ad space such as providing their unsold
inventory to direct marketers who pay for ad space based on ad performance.
 
THE DOUBLECLICK SOLUTION
 
    DoubleClick's solutions are designed to enable advertisers and Web
publishers to take advantage of the growing opportunities to realize significant
economic gain through Internet advertising. The Company has developed DART, a
proprietary technology that, through its dynamic ad matching, targeting and
delivering functionality and its ability to gather and continuously update
information on the rapidly increasing number of Web users, provides the platform
for DoubleClick's solutions, including: (i) the DoubleClick Network, a
collection of over 60 Web sites; (ii) the DART Service, which offers ad
targeting, tracking and reporting functionality to Web publishers with internal
sales organizations; and (iii) DoubleClick Direct, a recently introduced service
that offers direct marketers the ability to pay for
 
                                       31
<PAGE>
advertising on a cost-per-action basis. Each of the Company's solutions has been
designed and developed to address and meet the needs of both advertisers and Web
publishers.
 
    DoubleClick's proprietary DART technology collects, and continually updates,
information on the characteristics and response patterns of individual Web
users. DART uses this information to dynamically match and deliver an Internet
ad to a Web user within milliseconds based on pre-selected criteria, including
time of day, user interests, geographic location of the user's server and
organization name, size, revenue or industry type. In addition, DART is a
powerful ad performance tracking tool which provides comprehensive reporting.
 
    THE DOUBLECLICK NETWORK
 
    The DoubleClick Network is designed to streamline the Internet advertising
purchasing process by providing a one-stop shop for advertisers to buy ads on
the Internet. The DoubleClick Network enables advertisers to benefit from the
dynamic ad matching, targeting and delivering functionality provided by the DART
technology. As a result, advertisers can customize their ad delivery on the
DoubleClick Network within specific content categories, on specific Web sites,
or by targeting based on a variety of factors, including user interest,
organization type and keyword choice. To capitalize on the global reach of the
Internet, DoubleClick is establishing DoubleClick Networks in Europe, Asia and
other international markets.
 
    By joining the DoubleClick Network, Web publishers can take advantage of
DoubleClick's extensive and experienced ad sales organization. These Web
publishers do not need to establish an internal advertising sales capacity, are
relieved of the ad management requirements, including billing, tracking and
reporting, and do not incur the start-up and fixed costs associated with
establishing, maintaining, upgrading and operating ad servers. Additionally, Web
publishers can benefit from the DART ad targeting technology by improving the
effectiveness of the advertising on their Web sites which, in turn, increases
the value of their Web sites to advertisers.
 
    DART SERVICE
 
    DoubleClick offers its DART Service to Web publishers with internal ad sales
organizations seeking a comprehensive turnkey ad management solution with ad
targeting and delivering capabilities, and sophisticated tracking, reporting and
billing functionality. The DART Service also handles the difficult and
complicated task of ad space inventory management. By using the DART Service,
Web publishers can take advantage of the Company's extensive database of Web
user targeting information as well as the Company's predictive modeling
capabilities to more effectively target ads.
 
    DOUBLECLICK DIRECT
 
    DoubleClick Direct is a response oriented Internet-based direct advertising
solution that enables direct marketers to pay for advertising on a
cost-per-action (e.g. cost-per-sale, cost-per-lead or cost-per-click) basis.
Using DoubleClick Direct, direct marketers can place their cost-per-action ads
on the available ad space inventory on the Web sites of a variety of Web
publishers. DoubleClick's DART technology analyzes which ads receive the best
response on which Web sites and then selects the appropriate ad and delivers it
on the Web sites and pages within the Web sites where the ad is expected to
yield the best results. DoubleClick Direct provides Web publishers with an
additional source of advertising revenue since it utilizes ad space on their Web
sites that has not otherwise been sold. DoubleClick Direct was introduced in the
fourth quarter of 1997 on a limited basis to selected direct marketers and the
Company is developing additional features to meet the evolving needs of direct
marketers.

STRATEGY
 
    DoubleClick's objective is to be the leading provider of Internet
advertising solutions. The following are the key elements of the Company's
strategy:
 
    PROVIDE THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE INTERNET ADVERTISING SOLUTIONS.  The Company
intends to leverage the information aggregated from the millions of individual
users that visit the Web sites on the DoubleClick Network and the Web sites of
Web publishers using the DART Service to further enhance its existing solutions
and facilitate the development of additional solutions. DoubleClick believes
that its proprietary DART technology and the experience and knowledge gained
through the delivery of billions of Internet ads provide it with a significant
competitive advantage over other Internet advertising solutions providers.
DoubleClick intends to leverage its technology and media expertise to continue
to develop new solutions and technological capabilities that meet the needs of
advertisers and Web publishers. In addition, the Company intends to add new
features and functionality to its DART technology to meet the evolving needs of
the Internet advertising market.
 
    ENHANCE AND EXPAND THE DOUBLECLICK NETWORK.  By enhancing and expanding the
DoubleClick Network, the Company believes that the DoubleClick Network will
become a leading choice for Web advertisers. The Company intends to continuously
target Web publishers of high quality Web sites, directories and search engines
for addition to the existing content categories comprising the DoubleClick
Network. Any such additions will be required to meet strict inclusion and
maintenance criteria in order to ensure that they will continue to provide the
desired audiences of advertisers. In order to provide advertisers with
additional audiences, the Company also plans to add new content categories
comprised of high quality, high traffic Web sites to the DoubleClick Network.
 
    EXPAND SALES AND MARKETING.  The Company believes that a strong sales and
marketing organization is essential to effectively sell and market Internet
advertising solutions. The Company intends to continue to expand its sales and
marketing efforts. Specifically, DoubleClick plans to expand its DoubleClick
Network sales force and has established dedicated sales organizations for its
DART Service and DoubleClick Direct. DoubleClick believes that brand awareness
of the Company and its solutions is critical to its success given the emerging
nature of the Internet advertising market. As a result, the Company is targeting
its efforts to advertisers and advertising agencies in order to establish and
expand the recognition of its corporate identity and service offerings through
its Web site, advertisements within trade publications, direct mail, promotional
activities, trade show participation and other media events.
 
    ESTABLISH DART SERVICE AND DOUBLECLICK DIRECT.  The Company is offering ad
management services by providing its DART Service directly to Web publishers
which have internal ad sales forces yet desire to utilize DART's ad targeting,
tracking, reporting and inventory management capabilities. The Company intends
to continue to focus on identifying appropriate Web publishers that may be
interested in utilizing its DART Service to manage their ad space inventory. The
Company recently launched its DoubleClick Direct service on a limited basis and
is building its inventory of direct marketing advertisements and available ad
space. The Company intends to add features and functionality to the DoubleClick
Direct service to meet the evolving needs of direct marketers and to provide a
viable commercial opportunity for Web sites with significant unsold ad space
inventory.
 
    EXTEND GLOBAL PRESENCE.  To provide U.S. and foreign advertisers with the
ability to deliver their ads in global markets and to provide Web publishers in
international markets with the ability to outsource their ad sales, ad server
operations and ad space inventory management, the Company is developing
DoubleClick Networks and is providing its other solutions in a number of
countries. The Company is building DoubleClick Networks in Australia, Canada and
the United Kingdom, and through its business partners, in Japan, Iberoamerica
(Spain, Portugal and Latin America) and Scandinavia. To support this initiative,
DoubleClick has recently opened sales offices offering all of the Company's
solutions in Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom, and intends to establish
sales offices in additional countries in the future.

TECHNOLOGY OVERVIEW
 
    The Company's proprietary DART (Dynamic Advertising Reporting and Targeting)
technology serves as the enabling platform for all of the Company's solutions.
This centralized ad management technology, resident on the Company's server, is
linked to the Web publisher's server and completes the dynamic ad matching,
targeting and delivering functions within milliseconds. In addition, unlike
shrink-wrapped technology products, continuous enhancements to DART can be made
without the need for a Web publisher to upgrade or purchase new equipment or
software upgrades. The following diagram illustrates the architecture of DART:
 
         [ILLUSTRATION DEPICTING DART TECHNOLOGY'S DYNAMIC AD MATCHING,
                     TARGETING AND DELIVERING ARCHITECTURE]
 
    To date, DoubleClick's DART technology has delivered over 6 billion ads
worldwide. DART's dynamic matching, targeting and delivering functions enable
Web advertisers to target their advertising based on a variety of factors,
including user interests, time of day, day of week, organization name and size,
domain type (i.e., commercial, government, education, network), operating
system, server type and version, and keywords. In addition, the Company offers
the ability to match geographic location of the user's server and organization
revenue through third-party databases. DART also manages the frequency and
distribution of ad placements to limit repetitive ad exposures that can reduce
ad effectiveness. Further, in order to deliver the advertisements on the pages
that are likely to result in the best response, DART improves its predictive
capabilities by continuously collecting information regarding the user and the
user's viewing activities and ad responses.
 
    DART is a powerful ad performance tracking and reporting tool. Detailed
daily online performance reports allow advertisers and Web publishers to
actively monitor and react to the success of particular ads and marketing
campaigns and Web site traffic patterns, respectively. Such reports can be
further tailored to evaluate ad success based on the dynamic ad matching,
targeting and delivering factors set
 
                                       34

forth above. DART delivers advertising content developed using most leading Web
tools and technologies, including JAVA, Java Script, RealAudio, RealVideo,
Enliven and VRML. In addition, DART is compatible with leading host servers,
regardless of the Web publisher's hardware or software. DART is designed to be
highly reliable and operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week with minimal
downtime. Enhancements of the DART technology have allowed for the development
of additional features providing: (i) advertisers with the ability to test the
effectiveness of the creative content of an advertisement before launching an ad
campaign by comparing click-through rates on alternative advertisements; (ii)
advertisers with the opportunity to track a user to the advertiser's own Web
site to determine what actions a user takes following a click-through; and (iii)
Web publishers with the ability to accurately manage and record advertising
activity and track related revenue over a network of affiliated Web sites.
 
SERVICES
 
    DOUBLECLICK NETWORK
 
    Utilizing the Company's proprietary DART technology, the DoubleClick Network
provides effective Internet advertising solutions to both advertisers and Web
publishers. As of December 15, 1997, the DoubleClick Network consisted of over
60 Web sites grouped together by the Company in defined content categories. In
November 1997, approximately 750 million ads were delivered on the DoubleClick
Network. The Company pays each Web publisher whose Web sites are on the
DoubleClick Network a service fee calculated as a percentage of the amount it
charges advertisers for delivering advertisements on the DoubleClick Network. In
addition, the Company is responsible for billing and collecting for ads
delivered on the DoubleClick Network and typically assumes the risk of
non-payment from advertisers. Since December 1996, the Company has derived
substantially all of its revenues from advertisements delivered on the
DoubleClick Network.
 
    Web publishers seeking to add their Web sites to the DoubleClick Network
must meet defined inclusion and maintenance criteria based upon, among other
things, the demographics of the particular Web site's users, the Web site's
content quality and brand name recognition, the level of existing and projected
traffic on the Web site, and the opportunity to provide sponsorship
opportunities. By preserving the integrity of the DoubleClick Network through
the maintenance of such defined criteria, the Company enhances an advertiser's
ability to have its advertisements seen by the appropriate audience. In
addition, the DoubleClick Network provides greater efficiencies to advertisers
by allowing them to reach several different target audiences all through one ad
purchase and ad campaign.
 
    The Company intends to continuously target Web publishers of high quality
directories, search engines and premium Web sites for addition to the existing
content categories in the DoubleClick Network and to expand into additional
content categories based on advertisers' targeting needs. The
 
                                       35

                                 [LOGO]
 
    Over 800 advertisers from a variety of industries have utilized the
DoubleClick Network, including many of the leading Internet advertisers. In
certain instances, advertisers promote a number of products at one time. In
turn, there may be a number of advertising campaigns being run simultaneously
for each product, each with a number of advertisements. Further, many
advertisers use advertising agencies to strategically place their
advertisements. As a result, the Company maintains relationships with, and
focuses its sales and marketing efforts on, both advertisers and advertising
agencies. Set forth below is a list of certain advertisers that have delivered
advertisements on the DoubleClick Network:

establishing DoubleClick Networks in Europe, Asia and other international
markets. DoubleClick currently has operations in Australia, Canada, and the
United Kingdom, and through its business partners, in Japan, Iberoamerica and
Scandinavia. The Company's international operations allow advertisers to target
users in specific countries and worldwide and enables overseas advertisers to
focus their advertising in their own domestic market, the United States market
or globally. Further, by locating ad servers in foreign locations, the Company
is seeking to facilitate the rapid delivery of Internet advertising in
international markets.

    Since January 1997, the DART Service has been provided as a comprehensive
turnkey advertising solution to those Web publishers with internal sales forces
that desire to take advantage of the Company's DART technology to facilitate and
support their Internet ad placements. By utilizing the DART Service, a Web
publisher is provided with all of the dynamic ad matching, targeting and
delivering features of the DART technology, including the predictive modeling
benefits enabled by the Company's continuous collection of information regarding
users of the Web sites in the DoubleClick Network and the Web sites of other
DART-enabled Web publishers. The DART Service acts as the Web publisher's ad
server and can be easily linked to the Web publisher's server. The DART Service
is generally offered to Web publishers pursuant to annual service contracts
terminable by either party on 30 days prior written notice. As of November 1997,
there were 20 Web publishers using the DART Service, including NBC, THE WALL
STREET JOURNAL INTERACTIVE EDITION, RealNetworks, THE SPORTING NEWS, READER'S
DIGEST, TEXAS MONTHLY and VARIETY. To date, the Company has not received
significant revenues from the DART Service.
 
    DOUBLECLICK DIRECT
 
    Launched on a limited basis in the fourth quarter of 1997, DoubleClick
Direct is a response-oriented Internet advertising service that provides direct
marketers with the opportunity to conduct targeted advertising on a
cost-per-action basis, paying only when users click on an ad placed on a Web
site, fill out a lead form, download software, or buy a product. Web publishers,
including those in the DoubleClick Network, may designate a selected portion of
their previously unsold inventory on a monthly basis for such direct marketers.
DoubleClick's DART technology analyzes which ads receive the best response on
which Web sites and then selects the appropriate ad and places it on the Web
sites and pages within the Web sites where the ad is expected to yield the best
results. Further, DoubleClick Direct tracks and audits transactions in real
time, while at the same time using the information to automatically enhance and
update DoubleClick Direct. The Company expects direct marketers to utilize
DoubleClick Direct pursuant to short-term contracts. DoubleClick Direct has
initially been marketed to selected direct marketers on a limited basis and the
Company is developing additional features to meet the evolving needs of direct
marketers. To date, the Company has not received significant revenues from sales
of DoubleClick Direct.

SALES AND MARKETING
 
    UNITED STATES
 
    The Company sells its solutions in the United States through a sales and
marketing organization which consisted of an aggregate of 99 employees as of
December 1, 1997. These employees are located at the Company's headquarters in
New York, and in the Company's offices in Atlanta, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Los
Angeles and Silicon Valley. The sales organization is divided into three
dedicated groups focused on sales of advertisements to be delivered on the
DoubleClick Network, sales of the DART Service to Web publishers, and sales of
DoubleClick Direct to direct marketers. Each of these groups employs an internal
telesales force to solicit leads obtained from, and to respond to inbound
inquiries stimulated by, the Company's marketing efforts.
 
    The Company has created business development subgroups for each of the
DoubleClick Network's content categories to recruit Web publishers with high
quality Web sites for inclusion in the DoubleClick Network. Business development
salespeople are assigned to a particular content category in order to develop an
in-depth understanding of the evolving needs of a particular content category
and the Web publishers with Web sites within such content category. This
expertise allows the Company to more effectively manage existing content
categories and take advantage of opportunities to expand into additional content
categories.
 
    To support its direct sales efforts and to actively promote the DoubleClick
brand, the Company conducts comprehensive marketing programs, including public
relations, print advertisements, online advertisements over the DoubleClick
Network and on the Web sites of Web publishers unaffiliated with the DoubleClick
Network, Web advertising seminars, trade shows and ongoing customer
communications programs.
 
    INTERNATIONAL
 
    The Company has expanded its operations into Australia, Canada and the
United Kingdom through the creation of a direct sales organization in each such
location. In addition, the Company has entered into business relationships in
Japan, Iberoamerica and Scandinavia to take advantage of the local marketplace
knowledge of its business partners. As it continues to expand internationally,
the Company intends to expand its direct sales and marketing capabilities to
create direct sales organizations in certain international markets and, in other
markets, to enter into business relationships with companies having knowledge of
the particular marketplace.
 
COMPETITION
 
    The markets for Internet advertising and related products and services are
intensely competitive and such competition is expected to continue to increase.
There are no substantial barriers to entry in this market and the Company
believes that its ability to compete depends upon many factors within and beyond
its control, including the timing and market acceptance of new solutions and
enhancements to existing solutions developed by the Company and its competitors,
customer service and support, sales and marketing efforts, and the ease of use,
performance, price and reliability of the Company's solutions.
 
    The Company competes for Internet advertising revenues with large Web
publishers and Web search engine companies, such as America Online, Yahoo!,
Excite and Infoseek. Further, the DoubleClick Network competes with a variety of
Internet advertising networks. In marketing the DoubleClick Network and its DART
Service to Web publishers, the Company also competes with providers of ad
servers and related services, including NetGravity. The Company also encounters
competition from a number of other sources, including content aggregation
companies, companies engaged in advertising sales networks, advertising
agencies, and other companies which facilitate
 
                                       38
<PAGE>
Internet advertising. Many of the Company's existing competitors, as well as a
number of potential new competitors, have longer operating histories, greater
name recognition, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial,
technical and marketing resources than the Company. There can be no assurance
that the Company will be able to compete successfully against current or future
competitors or that competitive pressures will not have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
In addition, the Internet, in general, and the Company, specifically, also must
compete for a share of advertisers' total advertising budgets with traditional
advertising media, such as television, radio, cable and print. To the extent
that the Internet is perceived to be a limited or ineffective advertising
medium, advertisers may be reluctant to devote a significant portion of their
advertising budget to Internet advertising, which could limit the growth of
Internet advertising and would have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition. See "Risk Factors --
Competition".
 
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
 
    The Company regards its intellectual property as critical to its success,
and the Company relies upon patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret laws
in the United States and other jurisdictions to protect its proprietary rights.
The Company has filed one patent application with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office to protect certain aspects of its DART technology. The Company
pursues the protection of its trademarks by applying to register the trademarks
in the United States and (based upon anticipated use) internationally, and is
the owner of a registration for the DOUBLECLICK trademark in the United States.
There can be no assurance that any of the Company's trademark registrations or
patent applications will be approved or granted and, if they are granted, that
they will not be successfully challenged by others or invalidated through
administrative process or litigation. Further, if the Company's trademark
registrations are not approved or granted due to the prior issuance of
trademarks to third parties or for other reasons, there can be no assurance that
the Company would be able to enter into arrangements with such third parties on
commercially reasonable terms to allow the Company to continue to use such
trademarks. Patent, trademark, copyright and trade secret protection may not be
available in every country in which the Company's solutions are distributed or
made available. In addition, the Company seeks to protect its proprietary rights
through the use of confidentiality agreements with employees, consultants,
advisors and others. There can be no assurance that such agreements will provide
adequate protection for the Company's proprietary rights in the event of any
unauthorized use or disclosure, that employees of the Company, consultants,
advisors or others will maintain the confidentiality of such proprietary
information, or that such proprietary information will not otherwise become
known, or be independently developed, by competitors. The Company's DART
technology collects and utilizes data derived from user activity on the
DoubleClick Network and the Web sites of Web publishers using the Company's
solutions. This data is used for ad targeting and predicting ad performance.
Although the Company believes that it has the right to use such data and the
compilation of such data in the Company's database, there can be no assurance
that any trade secret, copyright or other protection will be available for such
information or that others will not claim rights to such information. Further,
pursuant to its contracts with Web publishers using the Company's solutions, the
Company is obligated to keep certain information regarding the Web publisher
confidential.
 
    The Company has licensed in the past, and expects that it may license in the
future, elements of its trademarks, trade dress and similar proprietary rights
to third parties, including in connection with the establishment of its
international business relationships which may be controlled operationally by
such third parties. While the Company attempts to ensure that the quality of its
brand is maintained by such business partners, no assurances can be given that
such partners will not take actions that could materially and adversely affect
the value of the Company's proprietary rights or the reputation of its solutions
and technologies. The Company currently licenses certain aspects of its
predictive modeling technologies from a third party. The failure by the Company
to maintain this license, or to find a
 
                                       39
<PAGE>
replacement for such technology in a timely and cost-effective manner, could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations
and financial condition.
 
    Legal standards relating to the validity, enforceability and scope of
protection of certain proprietary rights in Internet-related industries are
uncertain and still evolving, and no assurance can be given as to the future
viability or value of any proprietary rights of the Company or other companies
within the industry. There can be no assurance that the steps taken by the
Company to protect its proprietary rights will be adequate or that third parties
will not infringe or misappropriate the Company's proprietary rights. Any such
infringement or misappropriation, should it occur, could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial condition.
Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the Company's business activities
will not infringe upon the proprietary rights of others, or that other parties
will not assert infringement claims against the Company. From time to time the
Company has been, and expects to continue to be, subject to claims in the
ordinary course of its business, including claims of alleged infringement of the
trademarks and other intellectual property rights of third parties by the
Company and its business partners. Although such claims have not resulted in
litigation or had a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results
of operations or financial condition, such claims and any resultant litigation,
should it occur, could subject the Company to significant liability for damages
and could result in invalidation of the Company's proprietary rights and, even
if not meritorious, could be time-consuming and expensive to defend, and could
result in the diversion of management time and attention, any of which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results of operations
and financial condition.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
    As of December 1, 1997, the Company employed 171 persons, including 115 in
sales, marketing and customer support (16 of whom serve the international
marketplace), 26 in product development, and 30 in accounting, finance and
administration. The Company is not subject to any collective bargaining
agreements and believes that its relationship with its employees is good.
 
FACILITIES
 
    The Company's principal executive offices are currently located in two
separate facilities in New York, New York. Consisting of an aggregate of
approximately 25,000 square feet, these facilities are currently leased to the
Company under leases which expire in July 1999 and September 2002, respectively.
The Company also leases space for its sales and marketing efforts in California,
Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts and Texas, as well as in Australia, Canada and
the United Kingdom. The Company is considering the expansion of its New York
facilities in the first half of 1998. The Company believes that suitable
additional space will be available in the future on commercially reasonable
terms.
 
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
    The Company is not a party to any material legal proceedings.

    Currently, all Directors hold office until the next annual meeting of

EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

1997 Stock Incentive Plan, each individual who is serving as a non-employee
member of the Board of Directors on the date that the Underwriting Agreement

a non-employee member of the Board of Directors at any time thereafter will
receive an option to purchase 25,000 shares on the date such individual joins
the Board of Directors, provided such individual has not previously been an
employee of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation. In addition, on
the date of each annual stockholders' meeting beginning in 1999, each non-
employee member of the Board of Directors will automatically be granted an
option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock provided such individual has
served on the Board of Directors for at least six months. See "--Stock Plans".

(1) Each option represents the right to purchase one share of Common Stock. The
    options shown in this column are all incentive stock options granted
    pursuant to the Company's stock plans. The options shown in this table
    become exercisable in four equal annual installments commencing one year
    after the date of grant. To the extent not already exercisable, certain of
    these options may become exercisable in the event of a merger in which the
    Company is not the surviving corporation or upon the sale of substantially
    all of the Company's assets. See "--Stock Plans".
 
(2) During 1997, the Company granted employees options to purchase an aggregate
    of 1,116,225 shares of Common Stock.
 
(3) Amounts represent hypothetical gains that could be achieved for the
    respective options if exercised at the end of the option term. The 0%, 5%
    and 10% assumed annual rates of compounded stock price appreciation are
    mandated by rules of the Commission and do not represent the Company's
    estimate or projection of the Company's future Common Stock prices. These
    amounts represent certain assumed rates of appreciation in the value of the
    Company's Common Stock from the fair market value on the date of grant.
    Actual gains, if any, on stock option exercises are dependent on the future
    performance of the Common Stock and overall stock market conditions. The
    amounts reflected in the table may not necessarily be achieved.

(1) There was no public trading market for the Common Stock as of December 31,
    1997. Accordingly, these values have been calculated on the basis of the
    assumed initial public offering price of $13.00 per share, less the
    applicable exercise price per share, multiplied by the number of shares
    underlying such options.
 
STOCK PLANS
 
    1997 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
 
    The Company's 1997 Stock Incentive Plan (the "1997 Plan") is intended to
serve as the successor equity incentive program to the Company's 1996 Stock
Option Plan (the "Predecessor Plan"). The 1997 Plan was adopted by the Board on
November 7, 1997 and subsequently approved by the stockholders. The
discretionary option grant and stock issuance programs under the 1997 Plan
became effective immediately upon the Board of Directors' adoption of the Plan
(the "Plan Effective Date"). The automatic option grant program will become
effective on the date the Underwriting Agreement relating to the offering is
executed.
 
    A total of 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock have been authorized for
issuance under the 1997 Plan. Such share reserve consists of (i) the number of
shares available for issuance under the Predecessor Plan on the Plan Effective
Date, including the shares subject to outstanding options, and (ii) an
additional 1,550,000 shares of Common Stock. In addition, the number of shares
of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1997 Plan will automatically
increase on the first trading day of each calendar year, beginning with the 1999
calendar year, by an amount equal to three percent (3%) of the total number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding on the last trading day of the immediately
preceding calendar year. To the extent any unvested shares of Common Stock
issued under the 1997 Plan are subsequently repurchased by the Company, at the
exercise price or direct issue paid per share, in connection with the holder's
termination of service, those repurchased shares will be added to the reserve of
Common Stock available for issuance under the 1997 Plan. In no event, however,
may any one participant in the 1997 Plan receive option grants or direct stock
issuances for more than 375,000 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate per
calendar year.
 
    On the Plan Effective Date, outstanding options under the Predecessor Plan
will be incorporated into the 1997 Plan, and no further option grants will be
made under the Predecessor Plan. The incorporated options will continue to be
governed by their existing terms, unless the 1997 Plan's administrator (the
"Plan Administrator") elects to extend one or more features of the 1997 Plan to
those options.
 
                                       46
<PAGE>
Except as otherwise noted below, the incorporated options have substantially the
same terms as will be in effect for grants made under the discretionary option
grant program of the 1997 Plan.
 
    The 1997 Plan is divided into three separate components: (i) a discretionary
option grant program under which eligible individuals in the Company's employ or
service (including officers, non-employee members of the Board of Directors and
consultants) may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be granted
options to purchase shares of Common Stock at an exercise price not less than
85% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the grant date, (ii) a stock
issuance program under which such individuals may, at the Plan Administrator's
discretion, be issued shares of Common Stock directly, through the purchase of
such shares at a price not less than 100% of the fair market value at the time
of issuance or as a bonus tied to the performance of services or the attainment
of financial milestones, and (iii) an automatic option grant program under which
option grants will automatically be made at periodic intervals to eligible
non-employee members of the Board of Directors to purchase shares of Common
Stock at an exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value of the Common
Stock on the grant date.
 
    The discretionary option grant program and the stock issuance program will
be administered by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee as
Plan Administrator will have complete discretion to determine which eligible
individuals are to receive option grants or stock issuances under those
programs, the time or times when such option grants or stock issuances are to be
made, the number of shares subject to each such grant or issuance, the status of
any granted option as either an incentive stock option or a non-statutory stock
option under the Federal tax laws, the vesting schedule to be in effect for the
option grant or stock issuance and the maximum term for which any granted option
is to remain outstanding. The automatic option grant program will be
self-executing in accordance with the terms of that program, and neither the
Compensation Committee nor the Board of Directors will exercise any
administrative discretion with respect to option grants under that program.
 
    The exercise price for shares of Common Stock subject to option grants made
under the 1997 Plan may be paid in cash or in shares of Common Stock valued at
fair market value on the exercise date. The option may also be exercised through
a same-day sale program without any cash outlay by the optionee. In addition,
the Plan Administrator may provide financial assistance to one or more optionees
in the exercise of their outstanding options or the purchase of their unvested
shares by allowing such individuals to deliver a full-recourse, interest-bearing
promissory note in payment of the exercise or purchase price and any associated
withholding taxes incurred in connection with such exercise or purchase.
 
    The Plan Administrator will have the authority to effect the cancellation of
outstanding options under the discretionary option grant program (including
options incorporated from the Predecessor Plan) in return for the grant of new
options for the same or different number of option shares with an exercise price
per share based upon the fair market value of the Common Stock on the new grant
date.
 
    In the event that the Company is acquired by merger or sale of substantially
all of its assets or securities possessing more than 50% of the total combined
voting power of the Company's outstanding securities, each outstanding option
under the discretionary option grant program which is not to be assumed by the
successor corporation or is otherwise to continue in effect pursuant to the
express terms of the transaction will automatically accelerate in full, and all
unvested shares under the discretionary option grant program and stock issuance
program will immediately vest, except to the extent the Company's repurchase
rights with respect to those shares are assigned to the successor corporation or
are otherwise to continue in effect. The Plan Administrator will have complete
discretion to grant one or more options under the discretionary option grant
program which will become exercisable on an accelerated basis for all or part of
the option shares upon (i) an acquisition of the Company, whether or not those
options are assumed or continued in effect, or (ii) the termination of the
holder's service within a designated period following an acquisition in which
those options are assumed or continued in effect. The vesting of outstanding
shares under the stock issuance program may be accelerated upon similar
 
                                       47
<PAGE>
terms and conditions. The options incorporated from the Predecessor Plan will
terminate upon an acquisition of the Company by merger or asset sale, unless
those options are assumed by the successor entity. However, the Plan
Administrator will have the discretion to extend the acceleration provisions of
the 1997 Plan to those options.
 
    Under the automatic option grant program, each individual who is serving as
a non-employee member of the Board of Directors on the date the Underwriting
Agreement for the offering is executed, will automatically receive an option
grant on that date for 5,000 shares of Common Stock. Each individual who first
becomes a non-employee member of the Board of Directors at any time thereafter
will receive a 25,000-share option grant on the date such individual joins the
Board of Directors, provided such individual has not previously been an employee
of the Company or any parent or subsidiary corporation. In addition, on the date
of each annual stockholders' meeting, beginning with the annual meeting to be
held in the calendar year immediately following the execution date of the
Underwriting Agreement, each non-employee member of the Board of Directors who
is to continue to serve as non-employee member of the Board of Directors will
automatically be granted an option to purchase 5,000 shares of Common Stock,
provided such individual has served on the Board of Directors for at least six
months.
 
    Each automatic grant for the non-employee members of the Board of Directors
will have a term of 10 years, subject to earlier termination following the
holder's cessation of Board of Directors service. Any unvested shares purchased
under the option will be subject to repurchase by the Company, at the exercise
price paid per share, should the holder cease Board of Directors service prior
to vesting in those shares. Each automatic option will be immediately
exercisable for all of the option shares. The shares subject to each
25,000-share automatic option grant will vest over a four-year period in
successive equal annual installments upon the holder's completion of each year
of Board of Directors service measured from the option grant date. Each
5,000-share automatic option grant will vest upon the holder's completion of
one-year of Board of Directors service measured from the grant date. However,
the shares subject to each automatic grant will immediately vest in full upon
certain changes in control or ownership of the Company or upon the holder's
death or disability while a member of the Board of Directors.
 
    The Board of Directors may amend or modify the 1997 Plan at any time,
subject to any required stockholder approval. The 1997 Plan will terminate on
the earliest of (i) November 6, 2007, (ii) the date on which all shares
available for issuance under the 1997 Plan have been issued as fully-vested
shares, or (iii) the termination of all outstanding options in connection with
certain changes in control or ownership of the Company.

                              CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
 
    At the time of the Company's formation in January 1996, the Company issued
(i) 539,000 shares of its common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Original
Common Stock"), to Poppe Tyson in exchange for $500,000 and certain other
assets, and (ii) 366,912 shares of Original Common Stock to Kevin J. O'Connor
and Dwight A. Merriman (the "IAN Stockholders") in exchange for certain assets
distributed to them by IAN, including $75,000 in cash. Poppe Tyson subsequently
distributed its shares to Bozell, Jacobs, Kenyon & Eckhardt, Inc. ("BJK&E").
 
    On August 28, 1996, the Company amended its Certificate of Incorporation to
provide for four classes of common stock consisting of Original Common Stock,
class A common stock (the "Class A Stock"), class B non-voting common stock (the
"Class B Stock") and class C common stock (the "Class C Stock"). At such time,
all outstanding shares of Original Common Stock were converted into an equal
number of shares of Class A Stock.
 
    On May 14, 1997, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger
(the "Merger Agreement") with DoubleClick Acquisition Corp. ("Newco"), BJK&E,
all holders of the Company's capital stock, and Bain Capital Fund V, L.P., Bain
Capital Fund V-B, L.P., BCIP Associates, BCIP Trust Associates, L.P., Brookside
Capital Partners Fund, L.P., Greylock Equity Limited Partnership, Greylock IX
Limited Partnership and ABS Capital Partners II, L.P. (collectively, the
"Initial Investors"). Canaan S.B.I.C., L.P., Canaan Equity, L.P., Canaan Capital
Limited Partnership, Canaan Offshore Limited Partnership, Venrock Associates and
Venrock Associates II, L.P. (collectively, the "Additional Investors")
subsequently joined as parties to the Merger Agreement. Immediately prior to the
Merger, the Initial Investors and the Additional Investors held all of the
36,667 shares of Newco common stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Newco
Common Stock"), and Newco had assets of $36,667,000 in cash. In the Merger, each
share of Newco Common Stock was converted into one share of the Company's
Convertible Preferred Stock.
 
    Immediately prior to the closing of the Merger, the Company delivered to
BJK&E $1,385,832 and a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of
$5,000,000 in partial satisfaction of all working capital advances made by BJK&E
to the Company. The Convertible Note bears interest per annum at a rate equal to
the Federal Short-Term Rate. All unpaid principal, together with any and all
accrued and unpaid interest, is due on June 4, 2000. At any time prior to such
date, the Convertible Note is convertible, at the option of BJK&E, into such
number of shares of the Company's Common Stock as is determined by dividing the
unpaid principal balance by $6.42, subject to adjustment under certain
circumstances. It is currently anticipated that BJK&E will convert the
Convertible Note prior to the closing of the offering.
 
    To induce the Initial Investors to enter into the Merger Agreement,
concurrently with the closing of the Merger, the Company undertook a
recapitalization whereby each share of Class A Stock was converted into one
share of the Company's Common Stock, each share of Class B Stock was converted
into 0.28 shares of the Company's Common Stock plus cash in lieu of fractional
shares equal to $4.64 per share, and each share of Class C Stock was converted
into 0.28 shares of the Company's Common Stock plus cash in lieu of fractional
shares equal to $4.64 per share.
 
    On June 10, 1997, WPG Enterprise Fund III, L.P., Weiss, Peck & Greer Venture
Associates IV, L.P. and Weiss, Peck & Greer Venture Associates IV Cayman, L.P.
purchased from the Company an aggregate of 3,333 shares of the Company's
Convertible Preferred Stock in consideration for $3,333,000.

                           DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
 
    The following description of the securities of the Company and certain
provisions of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate"),
the Bylaws and the Convertible Note are summaries thereof and are qualified by
reference to the Certificate, the Bylaws and the Convertible Note, copies of
which have been filed with the Commission as exhibits to the Company's
Registration Statement, of which this Prospectus forms a part. The descriptions
of the Common Stock and Preferred Stock reflect changes to the Company's capital
structure that will occur upon the receipt of the requisite Board of Directors
and stockholder approvals and upon the closing of the offering in accordance
with the terms of the Certificate.
 
    The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 60,000,000 shares of
Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred
Stock, par value $.001 per share.
 
COMMON STOCK
 
    As of September 30, 1997, there were 12,306,343 shares of Common Stock
outstanding and held of record by 54 stockholders. Based upon the number of
shares outstanding as of that date and giving effect to the issuance of the
2,300,000 shares of Common Stock offered by the Company hereby, there will be
14,606,343 shares of Common Stock outstanding upon the closing of the offering.
 
    Holders of Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all
matters submitted to a vote of stockholders and do not have cumulative voting
rights. Accordingly, holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock
entitled to vote in any election of directors may elect all of the directors
standing for election. Holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably
such dividends, if any, as may be declared by the Board of Directors out of
funds legally available therefor, subject to any preferential dividend rights of
any outstanding Preferred Stock. Upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up
of the Company, the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably the
net assets of the Company available after the payment of all debts and other
liabilities and subject to the prior rights of any outstanding Preferred Stock.
Holders of the Common Stock have no preemptive, subscription, redemption or
conversion rights. The outstanding shares of Common Stock are, and the shares
offered by the Company in the offering will be, when issued in consideration for
payment thereof, fully paid and nonassessable. The rights, preferences and
privileges of holders of Common Stock are subject to, and may be adversely
affected by, the rights of the holders of shares of any series of Preferred
Stock which the Company may designate and issue in the future. Upon the closing
of the offering, there will be no shares of Preferred Stock outstanding.
 
PREFERRED STOCK
 
    Upon the closing of the offering, the Board of Directors will be authorized,
without further stockholder approval, to issue from time to time up to an
aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series and to
fix or alter the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications,
limitations or restrictions of the shares of each such series thereof, including
the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of
redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices,
liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or
designations of such series. The Company has no present plans to issue any
shares of Preferred Stock. See " -- Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions
of Delaware Law and the Company's Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws".
 
OPTIONS
 
    As of September 30, 1997, options to purchase a total of 1,813,155 shares
("Option Shares") of Common Stock were outstanding, approximately 1,165,930 of
which are subject to lock-up agreements
 
                                       53
<PAGE>
entered into with the Underwriters. Beginning 90 days after the date of this
Prospectus, approximately 268,313 Option Shares which are not subject to lock-up
agreements will be eligible for sale in reliance on Rule 701 promulgated under
the Securities Act. The total number of shares of Common Stock that may be
subject to the granting of options under the 1997 Plan shall be equal to: (i)
3,000,000 shares, plus (ii) the number of shares with respect to options
previously granted under the 1997 Plan that terminate without being exercised,
expire, are forfeited or canceled, (iii) an amount equal to, on the first
trading day of each year, three percent (3%) of the total number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding on the last trading day of the immediately preceding
calendar year, and (iv) the number of shares of Common Stock that are
surrendered in payment of any options or any tax withholding requirements. See
"Management -- Stock Plans" and "Shares Eligible for Future Sale".
 
REGISTRATION RIGHTS
 
    Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement, after the closing of
the offering the holders of 6,234,434 shares of Common Stock will be entitled to
certain demand registration rights with respect to the registration of such
shares under the Securities Act. The holders of 50% or more of such shares are
entitled to demand that the Company register their shares under the Securities
Act, subject to certain limitations. The Company is not required to effect more
than two such registrations pursuant to such demand registration rights and not
more than one in any 12 month period. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the
Stockholders Agreement, after the closing of the offering the holders of
11,552,658 shares of Common Stock will be entitled to certain piggyback
registration rights with respect to the registration of such shares of Common
Stock under the Securities Act. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the
Stockholders Agreement, the holders of 2,048,105 Option Shares will be entitled
to certain piggyback registration rights with respect to the registration of
such shares under the Securities Act. In the event that the Company proposes to
register any shares of Common Stock under the Securities Act, either for its
account or for the account of other security holders, the holders shares having
piggyback rights are entitled to receive notice of such registration and are
entitled to include their shares therein, subject to certain limitations.
Further, at any time after the Company becomes eligible to file a registration
statement on Form S-3 certain holders may require the Company to file
registration statements under the Securities Act on Form S-3 with respect to
their shares of Common Stock. These registration rights are subject to certain
conditions and limitations, among them the right of the underwriters of an
offering to limit the number of shares of Common Stock held by security holders
with registration rights to be included in such registration. The Company is
generally required to bear all of the expenses of all such registrations, except
underwriting discounts and commissions. Registration of any of the shares of
Common Stock held by security holders with registration rights would result in
such shares becoming freely tradable without restriction under the Securities
Act immediately upon effectiveness of such registration.
 
ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF DELAWARE LAW AND THE COMPANY'S
  CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS
 
    The Company is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the Delaware
General Corporation Law (as amended from time to time, the "DGCL"). Subject to
certain exceptions, Section 203 prohibits a publicly-held Delaware corporation
from engaging in a "business combination" with an "interested stockholder" for a
period of three years after the date of the transaction in which the person
became an interested stockholder, unless the interested stockholder attained
such status with the approval of the board of directors or unless the business
combination is approved in a prescribed manner. A "business combination"
includes mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial
benefit to the interested stockholder. Subject to certain exceptions, an
"interested stockholder" is a person who, together with affiliates and
associates, owns, or within three years did own, fifteen percent (15%) or more
of the corporation's voting stock. This statute could prohibit or delay the
accomplishment of mergers or
 
                                       54
<PAGE>
other takeover or change in control attempts with respect to the Company and,
accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire the Company.
 
    In addition, certain provisions of the Certificate and Bylaws, which
provisions will be in effect upon the closing of the offering and are summarized
in the following paragraphs, may be deemed to have an anti-takeover effect and
may delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or takeover attempt that a
stockholder might consider in its best interest, including those attempts that
might result in a premium over the market price for the shares held by
stockholders.
 
    CLASSIFIED BOARD OF DIRECTORS.  The Company's Board of Directors will be
divided into three classes of directors serving staggered three-year terms. As a
result, approximately one-third of the Board of Directors will be elected each
year. These provisions, when coupled with the provision of the Certificate
authorizing the Board of Directors to fill vacant directorships or increase the
size of the Board of Directors, may deter a stockholder from removing incumbent
directors and simultaneously gaining control of the Board of Directors by
filling the vacancies created by such removal with its own nominees.
 
    STOCKHOLDER ACTION; SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS.  The Certificate
provides that stockholders may not take action by written consent, but only at
duly called annual or special meetings of stockholders. The Certificate further
provides that special meetings of stockholders of the Company may be called only
by the Chairman of the Board of Directors or a majority of the Board of
Directors.
 
    ADVANCE NOTICE REQUIREMENTS FOR STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS AND DIRECTOR
NOMINATIONS.  The Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business
before an annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election
as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice
thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder's notice must be delivered to or
mailed and received at the principal executive offices of the Company, not less
than 120 days nor more than 150 days prior to the first anniversary of the date
of the Company's notice of annual meeting provided with respect to the previous
year's annual meeting of stockholders; provided, that if no annual meeting of
stockholders was held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting of
stockholders has been changed to be more than 30 calendar day earlier than or 60
calendar days after such anniversary, notice by the stockholder, to be timely,
must be so received not more than 90 days nor later than the later of (i) 60
days prior to the annual meeting of stockholders or (ii) the close of business
on the 10th day following the date on which notice of the date of the meeting is
given to stockholders or made public, whichever first occurs. The Bylaws also
specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder's
notice. These provisions may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before
an annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at an
annual meeting of stockholders.
 
    AUTHORIZED BUT UNISSUED SHARES.  The authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock and Preferred Stock are available for future issuance without
stockholder approval. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of
corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional
capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock and Preferred Stock could render
more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by
means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.
 
    The DGCL provides generally that the affirmative vote of a majority of the
shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend a corporation's
certificate of incorporation or bylaws, unless a corporation's certificate of
incorporation or bylaws, as the case may be, requires a greater percentage.
 
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION MATTERS
 
    The Certificate provides that, except to the extent prohibited by DGCL, the
Company's directors shall not be personally liable to the Company or its
stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as directors
of the Company. Under the DGCL, the directors have a fiduciary duty to the
 
                                       55
<PAGE>
Company which is not eliminated by this provision of the Certificate and, in
appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms
of nonmonetary relief will remain available. In addition, each director will
continue to be subject to liability under the DGCL for breach of the director's
duty of loyalty to the Company, for acts or omissions which are found by a court
of competent jurisdiction to be not in good faith or which involves intentional
misconduct, or knowing violations of law, for actions leading to improper
personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or approval of
stock repurchases or redemptions that are prohibited by DGCL. This provision
also does not affect the directors' responsibilities under any other laws, such
as the Federal securities laws or state or Federal environmental laws. The
Company has obtained liability insurance for its officers and directors.
 
    Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify its directors
and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of
their capacity or status as directors and officers, provided that this provision
shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director: (i) for any breach of
the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) arising under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit. The DGCL provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and
officers may be entitled under the corporation's bylaws, any agreement, a vote
of stockholders or otherwise. The Certificate eliminates the personal liability
of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL
and provides that the Company shall fully indemnify any person who was or is a
party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a
director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust,
employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding.
 
    At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any
director, officer, employee or agent as to which indemnification will be
required or permitted under the Certificate. The Company is not aware of any
threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for such
indemnification.
 
TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR
 
    The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock is American Stock
Transfer and Trust Company, New York, New York.
 
                                       56

                        SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
 
    Upon the closing of the offering, the Company will have an aggregate of
14,631,968 shares of Common Stock outstanding, assuming no exercise of the
Underwriters' over-allotment option and no exercise of outstanding options to
purchase Common Stock. Of these shares, the 2,300,000 shares sold in the
offering will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration
under the Securities Act, except that any shares held by "affiliates" of the
Company, as that term is defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities
Act, may generally only be sold in compliance with the limitations described
below.
 
    The remaining 12,331,968 shares of Common Stock will be deemed "restricted
securities" as defined under Rule 144. Restricted securities may be sold in the
public market only if registered or if they qualify for an exemption from
registration under Rules 144, 144(k) or 701 promulgated under the Securities
Act, which rules are summarized below. Subject to the lock-up agreements
described below and the provisions of Rules 144, 144(k) and 701, additional
shares will be available for sale in the public market (subject in the case of
shares held by affiliates to compliance with certain volume restrictions) as
follows: (i) 155,250 shares will be eligible for sale 90 days after the date of
this Prospectus, and (ii) 12,180,571 shares will be eligible for sale upon the
expiration of lock-up agreements 180 days after the date of this Prospectus,
including 783,163 shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock
options.
 
    In general, under Rule 144, a person (or persons whose shares are
aggregated), including an affiliate, who has beneficially owned shares for at
least one year is entitled to sell, within any three-month period commencing 90
days after the date of this Prospectus, a number of shares that does not exceed
the greater of (i) 1% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock
(approximately 146,320 shares immediately after the offering) or (ii) the
average weekly trading volume in the Common Stock during the four calendar weeks
preceding the date on which notice of such sale is filed, subject to certain
restrictions. In addition, a person who is not deemed to have been an affiliate
of the Company at any time during the 90 days preceding a sale and who has
beneficially owned the shares proposed to be sold for at least two years would
be entitled to sell such shares under Rule 144(k) without regard to the
requirements described above. To the extent that shares were acquired from an
affiliate of the Company, such affiliates' holding period for the purpose of
effecting a sale under Rule 144 commences on the date of transfer from the
affiliate.
 
    Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act provides that shares of Common
Stock acquired pursuant to written plans such as the 1997 Plan may be resold by
persons other than affiliates, beginning 90 days after the date of this
Prospectus, subject only to the manner of sale provisions of Rule 144, and by
affiliates, beginning 90 days after the date of this Prospectus, subject to all
provisions of Rule 144 except its one-year minimum holding period.
 
    After the date of this Prospectus, the Company intends to file a Form S-8
registration statement under the Securities Act to register all shares of Common
Stock issuable under the Stock Plans. Such registration statement is expected to
become effective immediately upon filing, and shares covered by that
registration statement will thereupon be eligible for sale in the public
markets, subject to certain lock-up agreements and Rule 144 limitations
applicable to affiliates. See "Management--Compensation of Directors" and
"--Stock Plans".
 
    Prior to the offering, there has not been any public market for the Common
Stock of the Company, and no prediction can be made as to the effect, if any,
that market sales of shares of Common Stock or the availability of shares for
sale will have on the market price of the Common Stock prevailing from time to
time. Nevertheless, sales of substantial amounts of Common Stock in the public
market could adversely affect the market price of the Common Stock and could
impair the Company's future ability to raise capital through the sale of its
equity securities.

                                    EXPERTS
 
    The consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 1996
and for the period from January 23, 1996 (inception) through December 31, 1996
included in this Prospectus have been included in reliance on the report of
Price Waterhouse LLP, the Company's independent accountants, given on the
authority of such firm as experts in auditing and accounting.
 
                             CHANGE IN ACCOUNTANTS
 
    On July 24, 1997, the Company dismissed KPMG Peat Marwick LLP and engaged
Price Waterhouse LLP as its independent accountants to audit its financial
statements as of, and for the period ended, December 31, 1996. The decision to
change independent accountants from KPMG Peat Marwick LLP to Price Waterhouse
LLP was approved by the Company's Board of Directors.
 
    The Company believes, and has been advised by KPMG Peat Marwick LLP that it
concurs in such belief, that, for the period from January 23, 1996 (inception)
through December 31, 1996, the Company and KPMG Peat Marwick LLP did not have
any disagreement on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreement, if not
resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP would have caused it to
make reference in connection with its report on the Company's financial
statements to the subject matter of the disagreement.
 
    The report of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on the Company's financial statements
for the period from January 23, 1996 (inception) through December 31, 1996 did
not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified
or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During that
year there were no "reportable events" within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(v)
of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act.

                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors
and Stockholders of
DoubleClick Inc.
 
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and the related
consolidated statements of operations, of changes in stockholders' deficit and
of cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of DoubleClick Inc. and its subsidiary at December 31, 1996, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for the period from January 23, 1996
(inception) to December 31, 1996, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit of these
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards
which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

The Company's DART technology and media expertise enable it to dynamically
deliver highly targeted, measurable and cost-effective Internet advertising for
advertisers, increase ad sales and improve ad space inventory management for Web
publishers. The Company was organized as a Delaware corporation on January 23,
1996 and commenced operations on that date.
 
    Inherent in the Company's business are various risks and uncertainties,
including its limited operating history, unproven business model and the limited
history of commerce on the Internet. The Company's success may depend in part
upon the emergence of the Internet as a communications medium, prospective
product development efforts, and the acceptance of the Company's solutions by
the marketplace.
 
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
    The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DoubleClick Canada Network Inc. All significant
intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Investments in less
than 20% owned business partners, for which the Company does not have the
ability to exercise significant influence and there is not a readily
determinable market value, are accounted for using the cost method of
accounting. Dividends and other distributions of earnings from investees, if
any, are included in income when declared.
 
INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
 
    In the opinion of the Company's management, the September 30, 1996 and 1997
unaudited interim consolidated financial statements include all adjustments,
consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation.
 
PRO FORMA CONVERSION OF PREFERRED STOCK AND CONVERTIBLE NOTE PAYABLE (UNAUDITED)
 
    On November 7, 1997, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized
management to pursue an initial public offering of the Company's common stock.
Upon closing of the Company's proposed initial public offering, the Company's
Convertible Preferred Stock will automatically convert into 6,234,434 shares of
Common Stock. In addition, it is anticipated that, prior to the closing of the
Company's proposed initial public offering, the holder of the Convertible Note
Payable will exercise its conversion feature and receive 779,302 shares of
Common Stock upon conversion thereof. The pro forma effect of the conversion of
the Convertible Preferred Stock and the Convertible Note Payable on
stockholders' equity has been presented as a separate column in the Company's
consolidated balance sheet assuming the conversions had occurred on September
30, 1997.

(CONTINUED)
MANAGEMENT'S 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,
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 may differ from those estimates.
 
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS AND SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
 
    The Company considers all short-term investments with a remaining
contractual maturity at date of purchase of three months or less to be cash
equivalents.
 
    The Company classifies its short-term investments as available-for-sale.
Accordingly, these investments, primarily corporate bonds with maturities
ranging from four to eight months, are carried at fair value. At September 30,
1997, the fair value of such securities approximated cost and there were no
unrealized holding gains or losses.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
    Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided using
the straight line method over the estimated useful life of the assets. Leasehold
improvements are amortized over the terms of the leases.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    Revenues are derived primarily from the delivery of advertising impressions
through third-party Web sites comprising the DoubleClick Network (the
"Network"). Revenues are recognized in the period the advertising impressions
are delivered provided collection of the resulting receivable is probable.
 
    The Company becomes obligated to make payments to third-party Web sites,
which have contracted with the Company to be part of the Network, in the period
the advertising impressions are delivered. Such expenses are classified as cost
of revenues in the consolidated statement of operations.
 
    From time-to-time during the period ended December 31, 1996, and to a lesser
extent during the period ended September 30, 1997, the Company arranged for the
placement of advertising on certain third-party Web sites for which it received
commissions and fees. For such transactions, the advertisers were responsible
for making payments directly to the Web sites. Commissions and fees derived from
such transactions totaled $1,073,745 for the period from January 23, 1996
(inception) to December 31, 1996 and $1,009,987 and $137,064 for the period from
January 23, 1996 (inception) to September 30, 1996 and for the nine months ended
September 30, 1997, respectively, and are classified as revenues in the
consolidated statement of operations.
 
    Deferred license and service fees represent payments received in advance
from third parties or affiliated companies for use of the Company's trademarks,
access to the Company's proprietary technology, and certain personnel during
fixed periods of time which range from two to four years. Such fees will be
recognized as revenues ratably over the terms of the applicable agreements. The
Company is

NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CONTINUED)
obligated to provide any enhancements or upgrades it develops and other support
over the term of the applicable agreements.
 
PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT COSTS
 
    Product development costs and enhancements to existing products are charged
to operations as incurred. Software development costs are required to be
capitalized when a product's technological feasibility has been established by
completion of a working model of the product and ending when a product is
available for general release to customers. To date, completion of a working
model of the Company's products and general release have substantially
coincided. As a result, the Company has not capitalized any software development
costs since such costs have not been significant.
 
ADVERTISING EXPENSES
 
    The Company expenses the cost of advertising and promoting its services as
incurred. Such costs are included in sales and marketing on the consolidated
statement of operations and totaled $217,546 for the period from January 23,
1996 (inception) through December 31, 1996, and $12,138 and $453,080, for the
period from January 23, 1996 (inception) through September 30, 1996, and the
nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively.
 
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND CONCENTRATIONS OF RISK
 
    The Company's financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents,
short-term investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses
and a convertible note payable to a related party.  At December 31, 1996 and
September 30, 1997 the fair value of these instruments approximated their
financial statement carrying amount. At September 30, 1997, the fair value of
the convertible note payable approximated its financial statement carrying
amount based on the variable nature of its interest rate and the estimated fair
value of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the note.
 
    Credit is extended to customers based on an evaluation of their financial
condition, and collateral is not required. The Company performs ongoing credit
evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts.
Revenues derived from customers outside the United States have not been
significant.
 
    The Company is subject to concentrations of credit risk and interest rate
risk related to its short-term investments. The Company's credit risk is managed
by limiting the amount of investments placed with any one issuer, investing in
money market funds, short term commercial paper, and A1 rated corporate bonds
with an average days to maturity of 129 days at September 30, 1997.
 
    During the periods presented in the consolidated statement of operations,
the Company derived substantially all of its revenues from the delivery of
advertisements on Web sites that are part of the Network. In December 1996, the
Company entered into a Procurement and Trafficking agreement (the "Agreement")
with Digital Equipment Corporation to deliver advertising to users of the
AltaVista Web site. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company is the
exclusive representative for the delivery of advertisements on certain pages
within the AltaVista Web site, subject to certain exceptions. While the
agreement terminates in December 1998, either party may terminate the agreement
upon 90 days' prior

written notice. AltaVista is a significant part of the Network and is expected
to account for a significant portion of the Company revenues for the next few
years. The loss of AltaVista as part of the Network, any reduction in traffic on
the AltaVista Web site, or a termination of AltaVista's contract with the
Company, would have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, results
of operations and financial condition. In addition, given the short-term nature
of the AltaVista contract, as is the case with most of the Company's advertiser
and Web publisher contracts, the Company will have to negotiate new contracts or
renewals which may have terms that are not as favorable to the Company as the
existing contracts, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, results of operations and financial condition. Net revenues derived
from advertising impressions delivered to users of the AltaVista Web site
represented 0% and 42.8% of the Company's total revenues for the periods ended
December 31, 1996 and September 30, 1997, respectively. No other Web site on the
Network was responsible for 10% or more of the Company's total revenues during
the periods presented in the consolidated statement of operations.
 
Revenues associated with major advertising customers, as a percentage of
revenues, are as follows:

INCOME TAXES
 
    The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income
taxes. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for
the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their
respective tax bases and to operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in results of
operations in the period that includes the enactment date.

NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CONTINUED)
EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION
 
    The Company accounts for its employee stock option plans in accordance with
the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees, and related interpretations. As such, 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 provide pro
forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock
grants made in 1996 and future years as if the fair-value-based method of
accounting in SFAS No. 123 had been applied to these transactions.
 
IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS
 
    The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not
be recoverable. Recoverability of assets held and used is measured by a
comparison of the carrying amount of an asset to future net cash flows expected
to be generated by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds
the fair value of the assets.
 
PRO FORMA NET LOSS PER SHARE
 
    Pro forma net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss by the sum
of the weighted average number of shares of common stock and common stock
equivalents outstanding during each period and the shares resulting from the
assumed conversion of all outstanding shares of Convertible Preferred Stock.
Common stock equivalents include all stock options that would have a dilutive
effect, applying the treasury stock method. Additionally, common and common
equivalent shares issued during the twelve months immediately preceding the
initial filing of a registration statement for the Company's initial public
offering have been included in the calculation of common and common equivalent
shares as if they were outstanding for all periods presented, including years
where the impact of incremental shares is antidilutive, using the treasury stock
method and an assumed initial public offering price of $13.00 per share. Due to
the significant impact of the assumed conversion of the Convertible Preferred
Stock upon closing of an initial public offering, historical net loss per share
is not meaningful, and therefore, is not presented.
 
NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
 
    In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued
SFAS No. 128, Earnings Per Share (Statement 128). Statement 128 establishes
standards for the computation, presentation and disclosure of earnings per share
(EPS), replacing the presentation of currently required Primary EPS with a
presentation of Basic EPS. It also requires dual presentation of Basic EPS and
Diluted EPS on the face of the income statement for entities with complex
capital structures. Basic EPS is based on the weighted average number of common
shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is based on the potential
dilution that would occur on exercise or conversion of securities into common
stock using the treasury stock method. Statement 128 is effective for periods
ending after December 15, 1997,

NOTE 1--SUMMARY OF OPERATIONS SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CONTINUED)
including interim periods; earlier application is not permitted. When adopted,
the Company will be required to restate its EPS for all periods presented. The
Company does not expect the impact of the adoption of Statement 128 to be
material to its reported EPS amounts.
 
    In February 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 129, Disclosure of Information
about Capital Structure. This statement establishes standards for disclosing
information about an entity's capital structure. Adoption of SFAS No. 129 will
have no impact on the Company's existing disclosures.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income
(Statement 130). Statement 130 establishes standards for reporting and
disclosure of comprehensive income and its components (revenues, expenses,
gains, and losses) in a full set of general-purpose financial statements.
Statement 130, which is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1997, requires reclassification of financial statements for earlier periods to
be provided for comparative purposes. The Company anticipates that implementing
the provisions of Statement 130 will not have a significant impact on the
Company's existing disclosures.
 
    In June 1997, the FASB issued SFAS No. 131, Disclosure About Segments of an
Enterprise and Related Information (Statement 131). Statement 131 establishes
standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about
operating segments. It also establishes standards for related disclosures about
products and services, geographic areas and major customers. Statement 131 is
effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997. In the initial
year of application, comparative information for earlier years must be restated.
The Company anticipates that implementing the provisions of Statement 131 will
not have a significant impact on the Company's existing disclosures.

    The Company also entered into agreements to provide the business partners
with use of the Company's trademarks and the right to access the Company's
proprietary technology and certain personnel during the term of the agreements,
which range from two to four years. As of September 30, 1997, the Company had
received $450,000 from DoubleClick Japan Inc. which is presented in the
consolidated balance sheet as deferred license and service fees. The Company has
agreed to provide the business partners with any product enhancements and
upgrades it develops, technical support, and maintenance. Further, the Company
and the business partners have agreed to certain arrangements whereby each party
shall be paid a commission for the sale of advertising impressions to be
delivered on the other parties' networks.
 
NOTE 4--INCOME TAXES
 
    No provision for federal or state income taxes has been recorded as the
Company incurred net operating losses for all periods presented. At December 31,
1996, the Company had approximately $2,900,000 of federal net operating loss
carryforwards available to offset future taxable income; such carryforwards
expire in 2011. The Company has recorded a full valuation allowance against its
deferred tax assets since management believes that, after considering all the
available objective evidence, both positive and negative, historical and
prospective, with greater weight given to historical evidence, it is not more
likely than not that these assets will be realized. No income tax benefit has
been recorded for all periods presented because of the valuation allowance.
 
    The tax effects of temporary differences and tax loss and credit
carryforwards that give rise to significant portions of federal deferred tax
assets (liabilities) are comprised of the following:

NOTE 5--STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY (CONTINUED)
    In September 1996, the Company exchanged 5,118,230 shares of Class A common
stock for 5,118,228 shares of Class B common stock and 2 shares of Class C
common stock. The exchanges were effected at par value.
 
    In June 1997, the Company authorized and issued 40,000 shares, $.001 par
value, of Convertible Preferred Stock. The shares were issued for $1,000 per
share. The shares of Convertible Preferred Stock have certain rights,
preferences, and restrictions with respect to conversion, liquidation and voting
as follows:
 
    - Each share of Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible, at the option of
      the holder, at any time into 155.86 shares of Common Stock, subject to
      certain antidilution provisions.
 
    - Conversion of Convertible Preferred Stock into Common Stock is automatic
      upon (i) the closing of a public or private offering of the Company's
      common stock when at least $20,000,000 is raised, and the offering is
      executed at a pre-money valuation of the Company of at least $100,000,000,
      or (ii) the Company meets or exceeds 90% of agreed-upon projections for
      each of 1997 and 1998.
 
    - Upon dissolution, sale, or liquidation, as defined, the holders of
      Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to (i) a proportionate share of
      proceeds, assuming all Convertible Preferred Stock is converted into
      common stock if the value of the Company exceeds $70,000,000, (ii)
      $40,000,000 if the value of Company is more than $50,000,000 and less than
      $70,000,000, or (iii) 75% of the total proceeds to all stockholders if the
      value of the Company is less than $50,000,000.
 
    - The holders of Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to vote on an as
      converted basis with the holders of Common Stock.
 
    Concurrent with the issuance of Convertible Preferred Stock, the Company
effected an exchange and redemption of its outstanding Class A, B, and C common
stock. Pursuant to the exchange, the stockholders of Class A, B, and C common
shares received 1, .28, and .28 shares, respectively, of newly issued Common
Stock for each share exchanged. Holders of the Class B and C common shares
redeemed their remaining shares for $4.64 per share, or $25,000,343 in the
aggregate.
 
    Holders of Common Stock are subject to substantial restrictions on transfer
and also have certain "piggyback" and demand registration rights which, with
certain exceptions, require the Company to use its best efforts to include in
any of the Company's registration statements any shares requested to be so
included. Further, the Company will pay all expenses directly incurred on its
behalf in connection with such registration.
 
STOCK OPTION PLAN
 
    The 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "1997 Plan") serves as the successor to the
Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan (the "Predecessor Plan"). The 1997 Plan was
adopted by the Board of Directors on November 7, 1997 and was subsequently
approved by the stockholders. The 1997 Plan became effective immediately upon
the Board of Directors' adoption of the Plan (the "Plan Effective Date"). Under
the 1997 Plan, 3,000,000 shares of Common Stock are reserved for the issuance of
incentive and nonqualified stock options. Such share reserve consists of (i) the
number of shares available for issuance under the Predecessor Plan on the Plan
Effective Date including the shares subject to outstanding options, and (ii) an
additional 1,550,000 shares of Common Stock. In addition, the number of shares
of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1997 Plan will automatically
increase on the

first trading day of each calendar year, beginning with the 1999 calendar year,
by an amount equal to (3%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar year.
To the extent any unvested shares of Common Stock issued under the 1997 Plan are
subsequently repurchased by the Company, at the exercise price or direct issue
paid per share, in connection with the holder's termination of service, those
repurchased shares will be added to the reserve of Common Stock available for
issuance under the 1997 Plan. In no event, however, may any one participant in
the 1997 Plan receive option grants or direct stock issuances for more than
375,000 shares of Common Stock in the aggregate per calendar year.
 
    On the Plan Effective Date, outstanding options under the Predecessor Plan
were incorporated into the 1997 Plan, and no further option grants will be made
under the Predecessor Plan. The incorporated options will continue to be
governed by their existing terms, unless the 1997 Plan Administrator elects to
extend one or more features of the 1997 Plan to those options. The options have
substantially the same terms as will be in effect for grants made under the 1997
Plan.
 
    Generally, options granted under the Plan vest ratably over a period of
three to four years from the date of grant and expire 10 years from the date of
grant and terminate, to the extent not exercised, upon termination of
employment.

    During the period from January 23, 1996 (inception) through March 31, 1997,
1996 the Company received certain administrative and support services from a
stockholder (the "related party"). The Company reimbursed the related party for
administrative and support services at amounts which approximated the fair
market value of such services. In addition, the related party advanced the
Company amounts required to fund operations and investing activities. The
advances were unsecured and bore interest at the 30-day LIBOR rate plus 2.5%
(8.3% at December 31, 1996). Amounts due to the related party reflect the

</TABLE>
 
    Under the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, the
Underwriters are committed to take and pay for all of the shares offered hereby,
if any are taken.
 
    The Underwriters propose to offer the shares of Common Stock in part
directly to the public at the initial public offering price set forth on the
cover page of this Prospectus and in part to certain securities dealers at such
price less a concession of $    per share. The Underwriters may allow, and such
dealers may reallow, a concession not in excess of $    per share to certain
brokers and dealers. After the shares of Common Stock are released for sale to
the public, the initial public offering price and other selling terms may from
time to time be varied by the representatives.
 
    The Company has granted the Underwriters an option exercisable for 30 days
after the date of this Prospectus to purchase up to an aggregate of 345,000
additional shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments, if any. If the
Underwriters exercise their over-allotment option, the Underwriters have
severally agreed, subject to certain conditions, to purchase approximately the
same percentage thereof that the number of shares to be purchased by each of
them, as shown in the foregoing table, bears to the 2,300,000 shares of Common
Stock offered.
 
    The Company, its directors and officers, and certain of its stockholders
have agreed that, subject to certain exceptions, during the period beginning
from the date of this Prospectus and continuing to and including the date 180
days after the date of the Prospectus, they will not offer, sell, contract to
sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock or of any other
securities of the Company (other than, in the case of the Company, pursuant to
stock incentive plans existing on the date of this Prospectus) which are
substantially similar to the shares of Common Stock or which are convertible or
exchangeable into securities which are substantially similar to the shares of
Common Stock without the prior written consent of the representatives, except
for the shares of Common Stock offered in connection with the offering. In
addition, the Company may issue shares of Common Stock in connection with any
acquisition of another company if the terms of such issuance provide that such
Common Stock shall not be resold prior to the expiration of the 180-day period
referenced in the preceding sentence.
 
    Prior to the offering, there has been no public market for the shares of
Common Stock. The initial public offering price will be negotiated among the
Company and the representatives. Among the factors to be considered in
determining the initial public offering price of the Common Stock, in addition
to prevailing market conditions, will be the Company's historical performance,
estimates of the business potential and earnings prospects of the Company, an
assessment of the Company's management and the consideration of the above
factors in relation to market valuation of companies in related businesses.
 
                                      U-1
<PAGE>
    The representatives of the Underwriters have informed the Company that they
do not expect sales to accounts over which the Underwriters exercise
discretionary authority to exceed 5% of the total number of shares of Common
Stock offered by them.
 
    In connection with the offering, the Underwriters may purchase and sell
Common Stock in the open market. These transactions may include over-allotment
and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions
created by the Underwriters in connection with the offering. Stabilizing
transactions consist of certain bids or purchases for the purpose of preventing
or retarding a decline in the market price of the Common Stock; and syndicate
short positions created by the Underwriters involve the sale by the Underwriters
of a greater number of shares of Common Stock than they are required to purchase
from the Company in the offering. The Underwriters also may impose a penalty
bid, whereby selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other
broker-dealers in respect of the securities sold in the offering for their
account may be reclaimed by the syndicate if such shares of Common Stock are
repurchased by the syndicate in stabilizing or covering transactions. These
activities may stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the
Common Stock, which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in
the open market. These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq National
Market, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise, and these activities, if
commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
 
    The Company intends to apply for quotation of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq
National Market under the symbol "DCLK". The Company has agreed to indemnify the
several Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under
the Securities Act.
 
    An affiliate of BT Alex. Brown Incorporated, one of the representatives of
the Underwriters in the offering, is a limited partner of ABS Capital Partners
II, L.P., a stockholder of the Company. In addition, another affiliate of BT
Alex. Brown Incorporated is a non-managing member of ABS Partners II, LLC, the
general partner of ABS Capital Partners II, L.P.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
 
    The Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation (the "Certificate") provides
that, except to the extent prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law
(the "DGCL"), the Registrant's directors shall not be personally liable to the
Registrant or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary
duty as directors of the Registrant. Under the DGCL, the directors have a
fiduciary duty to the Registrant which is not eliminated by this provision of
the Certificate and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as
injunctive or other forms of nonmonetary relief will remain available. In
addition, each director will continue to be subject to liability under the DGCL
for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant, for acts or
omissions which are found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be not in good
faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing violations of law, for
actions leading to improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of
dividends or approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are prohibited by
DGCL. This provision also does not affect the directors' responsibilities under
any other laws, such as the Federal securities laws or state or Federal
environmental laws. The Registrant has obtained liability insurance for its
officers and directors.
 
    Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify its directors
and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of
their capacity or status as directors and officers, provided that this provision
shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director: (i) for any breach of
the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) arising under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv)
for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit. The DGCL provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and
officers may be entitled under the corporation's bylaws, any agreement, a vote
of stockholders or otherwise. The Certificate eliminates the personal liability
of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL
and provides that the Registrant shall fully indemnify any person who was or is
a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or
 
                                      II-1
<PAGE>
investigative) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant
as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding.
 
    At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any
director, officer, employee or agent as to which indemnification will be
required or permitted under the Certificate. The Registrant is not aware of any
threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for such
indemnification.
 
ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES
 
    The Registrant has sold and issued the following securities since January
23, 1996 (inception):
 
    In January 1996, the Registrant issued an aggregate of 905,912 shares of its
common stock, par value $.01 per share ("Original Common Stock"), to two
entities in exchange for $575,000 in cash and certain other assets. Such shares
of Original Common Stock were sold in reliance upon an exemption from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof.
 
    In August 1996, all outstanding shares of Original Common Stock were
converted into shares of class A common stock.
 
    In June 1997, the DoubleClick Acquisition Corp. ("Newco") merged with and
into the Registrant (the "Merger"). As a result of the Merger, the Registrant
issued 36,667 shares of its Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per
share, to the holders of common stock of Newco. In addition, as part of the
Registrant's recapitalization, 7,395,740 shares of class A common stock were
converted into 7,395,740 shares of Common Stock and 10,780,000 shares of class B
common stock were converted into 2,987,721 shares of Common Stock.
 
    Also in June 1997, the Registrant sold 3,333 shares of its Convertible
Preferred Stock to certain investors for $3,333,000. Such shares of Convertible
Preferred Stock were sold in reliance upon an exemption from registration under
the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof.
 
    The Registrant from time to time has granted stock options to employees in
reliance upon an exemption under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Rule 701
promulgated thereunder. The following table sets forth certain information
regarding such grants:

    The above securities were offered and sold by the Registrant in reliance
upon exemptions from registration pursuant to either (i) Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act, as transactions not involving any public offering, or (ii) Rule
701 under the Securities Act. No underwriters were involved in connection with
the sales of securities referred to in this Item 15.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS
 
    The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriter
at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement, certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriter to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
 
    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Registrant, the Underwriting Agreement, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the Registrant will,
unless in the opinion of counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
    The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
    (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Act, the information
omitted from the form of Prospectus filed as part of this Registration Statement
in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of Prospectus filed by the
Registrant pursuant to Rule 424 (b) (1) or (4), or 497 (h) under the Act shall
be deemed to be part of this Registration Statement as of the time it was
declared effective.
 
    (2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Act, each
post-effective amendment that contains a form of Prospectus shall be deemed to
be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and
the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide offering thereof.

Section 2.6 of this Article immediately prior to such Liquidation Event plus all
accrued, but unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock; (ii) if the Liquidation
Event Value is more than $50 million but less than $70 million, $1,000 per share

value of such property, rights, or other securities shall be determined in good
faith by the Board of Directors of the Corporation.

    2.4  VOTING RIGHTS. The holders of the Preferred Stock shall be entitled to
receive notice of any stockholders' meeting and, except as otherwise required by
law or as provided in Section 2.5 hereof, to vote as a class with holders of
Common Stock on any matters on which the Common Stock may be voted. Each share
of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to a number of votes equal to the number of

                   Corporation or its Subsidiaries other than (i) a merger or
                   consolidation of a Subsidiary with the Corporation or any

                   Corporation's Board of Directors; or

              (f)  Amend its Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws. 

                   The holders of the Preferred Stock shall vote as a separate
              class with respect to any matter or proposed action as to which
              applicable law or this Certificate of Incorporation require the
              vote, consent, or approval of the holders of the Preferred Stock.

    2.6  CONVERSION OF PREFERRED STOCK. The holders of the Preferred Stock
shall have conversion rights as follows:

         2.6.1     RIGHT OF PREFERRED STOCK TO CONVERT.  Each issued and
outstanding share of Preferred Stock shall be convertible, at the option of the
holder thereof, at any time after the date of issuance and without the payment
of any additional consideration therefor, into that number of fully paid and
nonassessable shares of Common Stock as is determined by dividing $1,000 by the
Conversion Price (as defined below) in effect at the time of conversion. The
"Conversion Price" at which shares of Common Stock shall be deliverable upon
conversion of Preferred Stock shall initially be $3.208 per share. Conversion
Price shall be subject to adjustment (in order to adjust the number of shares of
Common Stock into which the Preferred Stock is convertible) as hereinafter
provided.

         2.6.2     FRACTIONAL SHARES.  No fractional shares of Common Stock
shall be issued upon conversion of the Preferred Stock. In lieu of any
fractional shares to which the holder would otherwise be entitled, the
Corporation shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by
the then effective Conversion Price.

         2.6.3     MECHANICS OF CONVERSION.

    (a)  In order for a holder of Preferred Stock to convert shares of
         Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock, such holder shall
         surrender the certificate or certificates 

                                         -8-
<PAGE>

         for such shares of Preferred Stock, at the office of the transfer
         agent for the Preferred Stock (or at the principal office the
         Corporation if the Corporation serves as its own transfer agent),
         together with written notice that such holder elects to convert all or
         any number of the shares of the Preferred Stock represented by such
         certificate or certificates. Such notice shall state such holder's
         name or the names of the nominees in which such holder wishes the
         certificate or certificates for shares of Common Stock to be issued
         and the number of shares of Preferred Stock to be converted. If
         required by the Corporation, certificates surrendered for conversion
         shall be endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument or
         instruments of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Corporation, duly
         executed by the registered holder or his or its attorney duly
         authorized in writing. The date of receipt of such certificates and
         notice by the transfer agent (or by the Corporation if the Corporation
         serves as its own transfer agent) shall be the conversion date (the
         "Conversion Date") and the conversion shall be deemed effective as of
         the close of business on the Conversion Date. The Corporation shall,
         as soon as practicable after the Conversion Date, issue and deliver at
         such office to such holder of Preferred Stock, or to his or its
         nominees, a certificate or certificates for the number of shares of
         Common Stock to which such holder shall be entitled, together with
         cash in lieu of any fraction of a share. If Common Stock is issued to
         a person other than the holder of Preferred Stock, such person shall
         pay any applicable stock transfer taxes.

    (b)  The Corporation shall at all times when the Preferred Stock shall be
         outstanding, reserve and keep available out of its authorized but
         unissued stock, for the purpose of effecting the conversion of the
         Preferred Stock, such number of its duly authorized shares of Common
         Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the
         conversion of all outstanding Preferred Stock. Before taking any
         action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion Price
         below the then-existing par value of the shares of Common Stock
         issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall
         take any corporate action that may, in the opinion of its counsel, be
         necessary in order that the Corporation may validly and legally issue
         fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock at such adjusted
         Conversion Price.

    (c)  Upon any such conversion, no adjustment to the Conversion Price shall
         be made for any declared and unpaid dividends on the Preferred Stock
         surrendered for conversion or on the Common Stock delivered upon
         conversion.

    (d)  All shares of Preferred Stock surrendered for conversion as herein
         provided shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights
         with respect to such shares, including the rights, if any, to receive
         notices, to vote and to accrual of dividends shall immediately cease
         and terminate at the close of business on the Conversion Date (except
         only the right of the holders thereof to receive shares of Common
         Stock in exchange therefor and to receive unpaid dividends accrued
         prior to 

                                         -9-
<PAGE>

         conversion) and any shares of Preferred Stock so converted shall be
         retired and canceled and shall not be reissued, and the Corporation
         from time to time shall take appropriate action to reduce the
         authorized Preferred Stock accordingly.

         2.5.4     ADJUSTMENTS TO CONVERSION PRICE FOR DILUTING ISSUES:

         following definitions shall apply:

         (i)     "OPTION" means any outstanding right, option or warrant to
                 subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire Common Stock or
                 Convertible Securities excluding rights, warrants and options
                 granted on or after the Closing Date, to employees, officers,
                 directors or consultants of the Corporation of any subsidiary

                 by the Board of Directors

         (ii)    "CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES" means any evidences of indebtedness,
                 shares (other than Common Stock or Preferred Stock), or other
                 securities directly or indirectly convertible into or
                 exchangeable for Common Stock.

         (iii)   "ADDITIONAL SHARES OF COMMON STOCK" means all shares of Common
                 Stock issued (or, pursuant to Section 2.6.4(c), deemed to be
                 issued) by the Corporation after the Closing Date, other-than
                 shares of Common Stock issued or issuable: (A) upon conversion
                 of shares of Preferred Stock; (B) as a dividend or
                 distribution on Preferred Stock; (C) by reason of a dividend,
                 stock split split-up or other distribution on shares of Common
                 Stock; (D) upon the exercise of options to employees, officers

                 from and after the Closing Date, of Options granted or issued
                 on or before the Closing Date.

         (iv)    "COMMON STOCK DEEMED OUTSTANDING" means, at any given time,
                 the number of shares of Common Stock actually outstanding at
                 such time, plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable
                 at such time upon conversion of Preferred Stock, and any other
                 Convertible Securities then outstanding, plus the number of
                 shares of Common Stock issuable at any time upon the exercise
                 of all then outstanding Options.

    (b)  NO ADJUSTMENT OF PREFERRED STOCK CONVERSION PRICE.  No adjustment
         shall be made in the Conversion Price as the result of the issuance of
         Additional Shares of Common Stock or otherwise, unless the
         consideration per share determined pursuant to Section 2.6.4(e) for an
         Additional Share of Common Stock issued or deemed to be issued by the
         Corporation is less than the Conversion Price in effect 

                                         -10-
<PAGE>

         on the date of, and immediately prior to, the issue for such series of
         such Additional Shares of Common Stock.

    (c)  ISSUE OF OPTIONS AND CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES DEEMED ISSUE OF ADDITIONAL
         SHARES OF COMMON STOCK.  If the Corporation at any time or from time
         to time shall issue any Options or Convertible Securities, or shall
         fix a record date for the determination of holders of any class of
         securities entitled to receive any such Options or Convertible
         Securities; then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as set
         forth in the instrument relating thereto without regard to any
         provision contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such
         number) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or, in the case of
         Convertible Securities and Options therefor the conversion or exchange
         of such Convertible Securities, shall be deemed to be Additional
         Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such issue or, in case
         such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of business
         on such record date, PROVIDED, that Additional Shares of Common Stock
         shall not be deemed to have been issued unless the consideration per
         share determined pursuant to Section 2.6.4(e) of such Additional
         Shares of Common Stock would be less than the Conversion Price in
         effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, or such
         record date, as the case may be, and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that in any
         such case in which Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed to be
         issued:

         (i)     no further adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be made
                 upon the subsequent issue of Convertible Securities or shares
                 of Common Stock upon the exercise of such Options or
                 conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities;

         (ii)    if such Options or Convertible Securities by their terms
                 provide, with the passage of time or otherwise for any
                 increase in the consideration payable to the Corporation, or
                 decrease in the number of shares of Common Stock issuable,
                 upon the exercise, conversion or exchange thereof, the
                 Conversion Price computed upon the original issue thereof (or
                 upon the occurrence of a record date with respect thereto),
                 and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon any
                 such increase or decrease becoming effective, be recomputed to
                 reflect such increase or decrease insofar as it affects such
                 options or the right of conversion or exchange under such
                 Convertible Securities.

         (iii)   upon the expiration of any such Options or any rights of
                 conversion or exchange under such Convertible Securities which
                 shall not have been exercised, the Conversion Price computed
                 upon the original issue thereof (or upon the occurrence of a
                 record date with respect thereto) and any subsequent
                 adjustments based thereon shall, upon such expiration, be
                 recomputed as if: (A) in the case of Convertible Securities or
                 Options for 

                                         -11-
<PAGE>

                 Common Stock, the only Additional Shares of Common Stock
                 issued were the shares of Common Stock, if any, actually
                 issued upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or
                 exchange of such Convertible Securities and the consideration
                 received therefor was the consideration actually received by
                 the Corporation for the issue of all such Options, whether or
                 not exercised, plus the consideration actually received by the
                 Corporation upon such exercise, or for the issue of all such
                 Convertible Securities which were actually converted or
                 exchanged, plus the additional consideration, if any, actually
                 received by the Corporation upon such conversion or exchange
                 and (B) in the case of Options for Convertible Securities,
                 only the Convertible Securities, if any, actually issued upon
                 the exercise thereof were issued at the time of issue of such
                 Options, and the consideration received by the Corporation for
                 the Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been then
                 issued was the consideration actually received by the
                 Corporation for the issue of all such Options, whether or not
                 exercised, plus the consideration deemed to have been received
                 by the Corporation determined pursuant to Section 2.6.4(e)
                 upon the issue of the Convertible Securities with respect to
                 which such Options were actually exercised;

         (iv)    no recomputation pursuant to the preceding clauses (ii) and
                 (iii) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price
                 to an amount that exceeds the lower of (x) the Conversion
                 Price on the original adjustment date with respect to the
                 original issuance of such Options or Convertible Securities,
                 or (y) the Conversion Price that would have resulted from any
                 issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock between the
                 original adjustment date with respect to the original issuance
                 of such Options or Convertible Securities and such
                 recomputation date;

         (v)     in the case of any Options which expire by their term; not
                 more than thirty (30) days after the date of issue thereof, no
                 adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made until the
                 expiration or exercise of all such Options, whereupon such
                 adjustment shall be made in the same manner provided in clause
                 (iii) above; and 

         (vi)    if such record date shall have been fixed and such Options or
                 Convertible Securities are not issued on the date fixed
                 therefor, the adjustment previously made in the Conversion
                 Price which became effective on such record date shall be
                 canceled as of the close of business on such record date, and
                 thereafter the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to
                 this Section 2.6.4(c) as of the actual date of their issuance.

    (d)  STOCK DIVIDENDS, STOCK DISTRIBUTIONS AND SUBDIVISIONS.  In the event
         the Corporation at any time or from time to time after the Closing
         Date shall declare 

                                         -12-
<PAGE>

         or pay any dividend or make any other distribution on the Common Stock
         payable in Common Stock, or effect a subdivision of the outstanding
         shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by
         payment of a dividend in Common Stock), then and in any such event,
         Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued:
         (i) in the case of any such dividend or distribution, immediately
         after the close of business on the record date for the determination
         of holders of any class of securities entitled to receive such
         dividend or distribution, or (ii) in the case of any such subdivision,
         at the close of business on the date immediately prior to the date
         upon which such corporate action becomes effective. If such record
         date shall have been fixed and such dividend shall not have been fully
         paid on the date fixed therefor, the adjustment previously made in the
         Conversion Price which became effective on such record date shall be
         canceled as of the close of business on such record date, and
         thereafter the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this
         Section 2.6.4(d) as of the time of actual payment of such dividend.

    (e)  ADJUSTMENT OF CONVERSION PRICE UPON CERTAIN EVENTS.  If the
         Corporation shall issue Additional Shares of Common Stock, including
         Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to
         Section 2.6.4(c) hereof, but excluding Additional Shares of Common
         Stock issued pursuant to Section 2.6.4(d), which event is dealt with
         in Section 2.6.4(g), without consideration or for a consideration per
         share less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of and
         immediately prior to such issue, then and in such event, such
         Conversion Price shall be reduced, concurrently with such issue in
         order to increase the number of shares of Common Stock into which the
         Preferred Stock is convertible, to a price (calculated to the nearest
         cent) determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction
         (x) the numerator of which shall be (A) the number of shares of Common
         Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issue (including shares of
         Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any outstanding Options or
         Convertible Securities), plus (B) the number of shares of Common Stock
         which the aggregate consideration received by the Corporation for the
         total number of Additional Shares of Common stock so issued would
         purchase at such Conversion Price, and (y) the denominator of which
         shall be (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
         immediately prior to such issue (including shares of Common Stock
         issuable upon conversion of any outstanding Options or Convertible
         Securities), plus (B) the number of such Additional Shares of Common
         Stock so issued, provided that the Conversion Price shall not be so
         reduced at such time if the amount of such reduction would be an
         amount less than $.01, but any such amount shall be carried forward
         and reduction with respect thereto made at the time of and together
         with any subsequent reduction which, together with such amount and any
         other amounts so carried forward, shall aggregate $.01 or more.

                                         -13-

    (f)  DETERMINATION OF CONSIDERATION.  For purposes of this Section 2.6.4,
         the consideration received by the Corporation for the issue of any
         Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed as follows:


         (i)  CASH AND PROPERTY: Such consideration shall: (A) insofar as it
              consists of cash, be computed at the aggregate of cash received
              by the Corporation, excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued
              interest or accrued dividends; (B) insofar as it consists of
              property other than cash, be computed at the fair market value
              thereof at the time of such issue, as determined in good faith by
              the Board of Directors; and (C) in the event Additional Shares of
              Common Stock are issued together with other shares or securities
              or other assets of the Corporation for consideration which covers
              both, be the proportion of such consideration so received,
              computed as provided in the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), as
              determined in good faith by the Board of Directors.

         (ii) OPTIONS AND CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES.  The consideration per share
              received by the Corporation for Additional Shares of Common Stock
              deemed to have been issued pursuant to Section 2.6.4(c), relating
              to Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by
              dividing: (A) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by
              the Corporation as consideration for the issue of such Options or
              Convertible Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of
              additional consideration (as set forth in the instruments
              relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained
              therein for a subsequent adjustment of such consideration until
              such subsequent adjustment occurs) payable to the Corporation
              upon the exercise of such Options or the conversion or exchange
              of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options for
              Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for
              Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such
              Convertible Securities, by (B) the maximum number of shares of
              Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto,
              without regard to any provision contained therein for a
              subsequent adjustment of such number until such subsequent
              adjustment occurs) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or
              the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

    (g)  ADJUSTMENT FOR STOCK SPLITS, STOCK DIVIDENDS, SUBDIVISIONS,
         COMBINATIONS OR CONSOLIDATION OF COMMON STOCK.  In the event the
         outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be split, subdivided,
         combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a
         greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, and in the event
         that the Corporation shall issue shares of Common Stock by way of a
         stock dividend or other distribution to the holders of Common Stock,
         the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such split,
         subdivision, stock dividend, combination or consolidation shall,
         concurrently with the effectiveness of such 

                                         -14-
<PAGE>

         split, subdivision, stock dividend, combination or consolidation, be
         increased or decreased proportionately.

         2.6.5     CERTIFICATE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS.  Upon the occurrence of each
adjustment or readjustment of the Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 2.6,
the Corporation at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or
readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to each holder of
Preferred Stock a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment and
showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based.
The Corporation shall, upon the written request at any time of any holder of
Preferred Stock, furnish or cause to be furnished to such holder a similar
certificate setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the
Conversion Price then in effect, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock
and the amount, if any, of other property that then would be received upon the
conversion of Preferred Stock.

         2.6.6     MERGER OR SALE OF ASSETS.  If at any time or from time to
time there shall be a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into
another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of
the Corporation to any other corporation (collectively, an "Acquisition"), then,
as a part of such Acquisition, provision shall be made so that the holders of
the Preferred Stock shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon conversion of
the Preferred Stock, the number of shares of stock or other securities or
property of the Corporation, or of the successor corporation resulting from such
Acquisition, to which a holder of Common Stock issuable upon conversion would
have been entitled on such Acquisition. In any such case, appropriate adjustment
(as determined by the Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of
the provisions of this Section 2.6 with respect to the rights and interest
thereafter of the holders of the preferred Stock after the Acquisition to the
end that the provisions of this Section 2.6 (including adjustment of the
Conversion Price then in effect and the number of shares acquirable upon
conversion of the Preferred Stock) shall be applicable after the Acquisition in
as nearly equivalent a manner as may be practicable. Each holder of Preferred
Stock upon the occurrence of a capital reorganization or Acquisition, shall have
the option of electing treatment of his shares of Preferred Stock under either
this Section 2.6.6 or Section 2.3.2, notice of which election shall be submitted
in writing the Corporation at its principal offices no later than five (5) days
before the effective date of such event.

         2.6.7     NOTICE OF RECORD DATE.  In the event that there occurs any
of the following events:

    (a)  the Corporation declares a dividend (or any other distribution) on its
         Common Stock payable in Common Stock or other securities of the
         Corporation;

    (b)  the Corporation subdivides or combines its outstanding shares of
         Common Stock;

    (c)  there occurs or is proposed to occur any reclassification of the
         Common Stock of the Corporation (other than a subdivision or
         combination of its outstanding shares of Common Stock or a stock
         dividend or stock distribution thereon), or of any 

                                         -15-
<PAGE>

         consolidation or merger of the Corporation into or with another
         corporation, or of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets
         of the Corporation, or

    (d)  the involuntary or voluntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up
         of the Corporation; 

then the Corporation shall cause to be filed at its principal office or at the
office of the transfer agent of the Preferred Stock, and shall cause to be
mailed to the holders of the Preferred Stock at their addresses as shown on the
records of the Corporation or such transfer agent, at least ten days prior to
the record date specified in (i) below or twenty days before the date specified
in (ii) below, a notice stating the following information:

         (i)  the record date of such dividend, distribution, subdivision or
              combination, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of
              which the holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to
              such dividend, distribution, subdivision, or combination are to
              be determined, or

         (ii) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger,
              sale, liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up is expected to
              become effective, and the date as of which it is expected that
              holders of Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange
              their shares of Common Stock for securities or other property
              deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger,
              sale, liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up.

         2.6.8     AUTOMATIC CONVERSION OF PREFERRED STOCK.

    (a)  All outstanding shares of Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be
         automatically converted into shares of Common Stock at the then
         effective Conversion Price upon (i) the closing of Qualified Public
         Offering or (ii) the Corporation's meeting or exceeding the
         projections for each of 1997 and 1998 contained in EXHIBIT B to the
         Stockholder Agreement or (iii) upon the closing of a Qualified Private
         Offering (each such event being referred to herein as an "Automatic
         Conversion Event"); PROVIDED, HOWEVER that if the securities issued in
         the Qualified Private Offering are not shares of Common Stock, the
         Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be automatically converted into the
         same class of securities that are issued in such Qualified Private
         Offering, but at the Conversion Price then applicable to the Preferred
         Stock, appropriately adjusted on a Common Stock equivalent basis.

    (b)  On or after the date of occurrence of an Automatic Conversion Event,
         and in any event within 10 days after receipt of notice, by mail,
         postage prepaid from the Corporation of the occurrence of such event,
         each holder of record of shares of Preferred Stock being converted
         shall surrender such holder's certificates evidencing such shares at
         the principal office of the Corporation or at such other place as the
         Corporation shall designate, and shall thereupon be entitled to
         receive 

                                         -16-
<PAGE>

         certificates evidencing the number of shares of Common Stock (or other
         securities) into which such shares of Preferred Stock are converted
         and cash as provided in Section 2.6.2 in respect of any fraction of a
         share of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon such conversion. On the
         date of the occurrence of an Automatic Conversion Event, each holder
         of record or shares of Preferred Stock shall be deemed to be the
         holder of record of the Common Stock (or other securities) issuable
         upon such conversion, notwithstanding that the certificates
         representing such shares of Preferred Stock shall not have been
         surrendered at the office of the Corporation, that notice from the
         Corporation shall not have been received by any holder of record of
         shares of Preferred Stock, or that the certificates evidencing such
         shares of Common Stock (or other securities) shall not then be
         actually delivered to such holder.

    (c)  All certificates evidencing shares of Preferred Stock that are
         required to be surrendered for conversion in accordance with the
         provisions hereof, from and after the date such certificates arc so
         required to be surrendered shall be deemed to have been retired and
         canceled and the shares of Preferred Stock represented thereby
         converted into Common Stock (or other securities) for all purposes,
         notwithstanding the failure of the holder or holders thereof to
         surrender such certificates on or prior to such date. The Corporation
         from time to time thereafter shall take appropriate action to reduce
         the authorized Preferred Stock accordingly.

         2.6.9     NO IMPAIRMENT.  The Corporation will not, by amendment of
this Certification of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of
assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of
any of the terms to be observed or performed hereunder by the Corporation but
will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the provisions
of this Section 2.6 and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or
appropriate in order to protect the conversion rights of the holders of the
Preferred Stock against impairment.

    2.7  REPLACEMENT.  Upon receipt of an affidavit of the registered owner of
one or more shares of any class of Stock (or such other evidence as may be
reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation) with respect to the ownership and
the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any certificate evidencing such
shares of Stock, and in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon
receipt of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation (it being
understood that if the holder is an Investor or an Affiliated Fund, or any ether
holder of shares of Stock of the Corporation which is an entity regularly
engaged in the business of investing in companies and meets such requirements of
creditworthiness as may reasonably be imposed by the Corporation in connection
with the provisions of this paragraph, its own agreement will be satisfactory),
or, in the case of any such mutilation upon surrender of such certificate the
Corporation shall execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new
certificate of like kind representing the number of shares of such class
represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated
the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.

                                         -17-

    2.8  AMENDMENT; WAIVER.  No amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Article Fourth shall be effective without the prior written consent of the
holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock
voting as a single class and no amendment or waiver of any provision of this
Article Fourth which adversely affects the holders of Common Stock or increases
the rights of the Preferred Stock shall be effective without the prior written
consent of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of the
Common Stock voting as a single class; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that as stipulated in
Section 242(b)(2) of the Delaware General Corporation Law no amendment to any
class of Common Stock that alters or changes the powers, preferences or special
rights of such class of Common Stock so as to affect them adversely shall be
effective without the prior consent of the holders of a majority of the then
outstanding shares of such class of Common Stock.

                                      ARTICLE V

    Except to the extent that the General Corporation Law of Delaware prohibits
the elimination or limitation of liability of directors for breaches of
fiduciary duty, no director of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the
Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, notwithstanding any provision of law imposing such
liability. No amendment to or repeal of this provision shall apply to or have
any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any director of the
Corporation for or with respect to any acts or omissions of such director
occurring prior to such amendment.

                                      ARTICLE VI

    1.1  ACTIONS, SUITS AND PROCEEDINGS OTHER THAN BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE
CORPORATION.  The Corporation shall indemnify each person who was or is a party
or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed
action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation), by
reason of the fact that such person is or was, or is or was serving, or has
agreed to serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer or
trustee of, or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan)
(all such persons being referred to hereafter as an "Indemnitee"), or by reason
of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against
all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person or on such person's
behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any appeal
therefrom, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person
reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe such person's conduct was unlawful. The termination
of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or
upon a plea of NOLO CONTENDERE or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which such
person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of
the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had
reasonable cause to believe that such person's conduct was unlawful.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, except 

                                         -18-
<PAGE>

as set forth in Section 1.7 below, the Corporation shall not indemnify an
Indemnitee seeking indemnification in connection with a proceeding (or part
thereof) initiated by the Indemnitee unless the initiation thereof was approved
by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Article, the Corporation shall not indemnify an Indemnitee to
the extent such Indemnitee is reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance, and in
the event the Corporation makes any indemnification payments to an Indemnitee
and such Indemnitee is subsequently reimbursed from the proceeds of insurance,
such Indemnitee shall promptly refund such indemnification payments to the
Corporation to the extent of such insurance reimbursement.

    1.2  ACTIONS OR SUITS BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE CORPORATION.  The
Corporation shall indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or
suit by or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by
reason of the fact that such person is or was, or has agreed to become, a
director or officer of the Corporation, or is or was serving, or has agreed to
serve, at the request of the Corporation, as a director, officer or trustee of,
or in a similar capacity with, another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise (including any employee benefit plan), or by reason of
any action alleged to have been taken or omitted in such capacity, against all
expenses (including attorneys' fees) and, to the extent permitted by law,
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person or on
such person's behalf in connection with such action, suit or proceeding and any
appeal therefrom, if such person acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Corporation,
except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or
matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the
Corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware
shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of such
liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses (including
attorneys' fees) which the Court of Chancery of Delaware shall deem proper.

    1.3  INDEMNIFICATION FOR EXPENSES OF SUCCESSFUL PARTY.  Notwithstanding the
other provisions of this Article, to the extent that an Indemnitee has been
successful, on the merits or otherwise, in defense of any action, suit or
proceeding referred to in Sections 1.1 and 1.2 of this Article, or in defense of
any claim, issue or matter therein, or on appeal from any such action, suit or
proceeding, the Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee or on the
Indemnitee's behalf in connection therewith. Without limiting the foregoing, if
any action, suit or proceeding is disposed of, on the merits or otherwise
(including a disposition without prejudice), without (i) the disposition being
adverse to the Indemnitee, (ii) an adjudication that the Indemnitee was liable
to the Corporation, (iii) a plea of guilty or NOLO CONTENDERE by the Indemnitee,
(iv) an adjudication that the Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a
manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the Corporation, and (v) with respect to any criminal proceeding,
an adjudication that the Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe the
Indemnitee's conduct was unlawful, the Indemnitee shall be considered for the
purposes hereof to have been wholly successful with respect thereto.

                                         -19-
<PAGE>

    1.4  NOTIFICATION AND DEFENSE OF CLAIM.  As a condition precedent to the
right to be indemnified, the Indemnitee must notify the Corporation in writing
as soon as practicable of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation
involving the Indemnitee for which indemnity will or could be sought. With
respect to any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of which the
Corporation is so notified, the Corporation will be entitled to participate
therein at its own expense and/or to assume the defense thereof at its own
expense, with legal counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnitee. After
notice from the Corporation to the Indemnitee of its election so to assume such
defense, the Corporation shall not be liable to the Indemnitee for any legal or
other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such
claim, other than as provided below in this Section 1.4. The Indemnitee shall
have the right to employ the Indemnitee's own counsel in connection with such
claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the
Corporation of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of
the Indemnitee unless (i) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been
authorized by the Corporation, (ii) counsel to the Indemnitee shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest or position on any
significant issue between the Corporation and the Indemnitee in the conduct of
the defense of such action or (iii) the Corporation shall not in fact have
employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each of which cases
the fees and expenses of counsel for the Indemnitee shall be at the expense of
the Corporation, except as otherwise expressly provided by this Article. The
Corporation shall not be entitled, without the consent of the Indemnitee, to
assume the defense of any claim brought by or in the right of the Corporation or
as to which counsel for the Indemnitee shall have reasonably made the conclusion
provided for in clause (ii) above.

    1.5  ADVANCE OF EXPENSES.  Subject to the provisions of Section 1.6 below,
in the event that the Corporation does not assume the defense pursuant to
Section 1.4 of this Article of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation of
which the Corporation receives notice under this Article, any expenses
(including attorneys' fees) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending a civil or
criminal action, suit, proceeding or investigation or any appeal therefrom shall
be paid by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of such matter;
PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the payment of such expenses incurred by an Indemnitee
in advance of the final disposition of such matter shall be made only upon
receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the Indemnitee to repay all amounts
so advanced in the event that it shall ultimately be determined that the
Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in
this Article.  Such undertaking shall be accepted without reference to the
financial ability of the Indemnitee to make such repayment.

    1.6  PROCEDURE FOR INDEMNIFICATION.  In order to obtain indemnification or
advancement of expenses pursuant to Section 1.1, 1.2, 1.3 or 1.5 of this
Article, the Indemnitee shall submit to the Corporation a written request,
including in such request such documentation and information as is reasonably
available to the Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and
to what extent the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or advancement of
expenses. Any such indemnification or advancement of expenses shall be made
promptly, and in any event within 60 days after receipt by the Corporation of
the written request of the Indemnitee, unless with respect to requests under
Section 1. 1, 1.2 or 1.5 the Corporation 

                                         -20-
<PAGE>

determines within such 60-day period that the Indemnitee did not meet the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in Section 1 or 2, as the case may be.
Such determination shall be made in each instance by (a) a majority vote of the
directors of the Corporation consisting of persons who are not at that time
parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question ("disinterested
directors"), whether or not a quorum, (b) a majority vote of a quorum of the
outstanding shares of stock of all classes entitled to vote for directors,
voting as a single class, which quorum shall consist of stockholders who are not
at that time parties to the action, suit or proceeding in question, (c)
independent legal counsel (who may, to the extent permitted by law, be regular
legal counsel to the Corporation), or (d) a court of competent jurisdiction.

    1.7  REMEDIES.  The right to indemnification as granted by this Article
shall be enforceable by the Indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction if
the Corporation denies such request, in whole or in part, or if no disposition
thereof is made within the 60-day period referred to above in Section 1.6.
Unless otherwise required by law, the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is
not entitled to indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Article
shall be on the Corporation. Neither the failure of the Corporation to have made
a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification is
proper in the circumstances because the Indemnitee has met the applicable
standard of conduct, nor an actual determination by the Corporation pursuant to
Section 1.6 that the Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct,
shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the Indemnitee has
not met the applicable standard of conduct. The Indemnitee's expenses (including
attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with successfully establishing the
Indemnitee's right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such
proceeding shall also be indemnified by the Corporation.

    1.8  SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENT.  No amendment, termination or repeal of this
Article or of the relevant provisions of the General Corporation Law of Delaware
or any other applicable laws shall affect or diminish in any way the rights of
any Indemnitee to indemnification under the provisions hereof with respect to
any action, suit, proceeding or investigation arising out of or relating to any
actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such
amendment, termination or repeal.

    1.9  OTHER RIGHTS.  The indemnification and advancement of expenses
provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to
which an Indemnitee seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be
entitled under any law (common or statutory), agreement or vote of stockholders
or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person's
official capacity and as to action in any other capacity while holding office
for the Corporation, and shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be
a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs,
executors and administrators of the Indemnitee. Nothing contained in this
Article shall be deemed to prohibit, and the Corporation is specifically
authorized to enter into, agreements with officers and directors providing
indemnification rights and procedures different from those set forth in this
Article.  In addition, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time
to time by its Board of Directors, grant indemnification rights to other
employees or agents of the Corporation or other persons serving 

                                         -21-
<PAGE>

the Corporation and such rights may be equivalent to, or greater or less than,
those set forth in this Article.

    1.10 PARTIAL INDEMNIFICATION.  If an Indemnitee is entitled under any
provision of this Article to indemnification by the Corporation for some or a
portion of the expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines or amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person or on such
person's behalf in connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation
and any appeal therefrom but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the
Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify the Indemnitee for the portion of such
expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines or amounts paid in
settlement to which the Indemnitee is entitled.

    1.11 INSURANCE.  The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance, at
its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of
the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint trust or other
enterprise (including any employee benefit plan) against any expense, liability
or loss incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such
person's status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to
indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the General
Corporation Law of Delaware.

    1.12 MERGER OR CONSOLIDATION.  If the Corporation is merged into or
consolidated with another corporation and the Corporation is not the surviving
corporation, the surviving corporation shall assume the obligations of the
Corporation under this Article with respect to any action, suit, proceeding or
investigation arising out of or relating to any actions, transactions or facts
occurring prior to the date of such merger or consolidation.

    1.13 SAVINGS CLAUSE.  If this Article or any portion hereof shall be
invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the
Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Indemnitee as to any expenses
(including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in
connection with any action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil,
criminal or administrative, including an action by or in the right of the
Corporation, to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this
Article that shall nor have been invalidated and to the fullest extent permitted
by applicable law.

    1.14 DEFINITIONS.  Terms used herein and defined in Section 145(h) and
Section 145(i) of the General Corporation Law of Delaware shall have the
respective meanings assigned to such terms in such Section 145(h) and Section
145(i).

    1.15 SUBSEQUENT LEGISLATION.  If the General Corporation Law of Delaware is
amended after adoption of this Article to expand further the indemnification
permitted to Indemnitees, then the Corporation shall indemnify such persons to
the fullest extent permitted by the General Corporation Law of Delaware, as so
amended.

                                     ARTICLE VII

    The Corporation reserves the right to amend, alter, change or repeal any
provision contained in this Certificate of Incorporation, in the manner now or
hereafter prescribed by statute and this Certificate of Incorporation, and all
rights conferred upon stockholders herein are granted subject to this

per share ("Class B Stock") and (iii) Class C Common Stock, par value $.001 per
share (together with the Class A Stock and the Class B Stock, "Old Common
Stock") shall be changed into Common Stock, $.001 par value per share, as
provided in the Certificate of Merger filed contemporaneously herewith whether
or not certificates representing issued and outstanding shares of Old Common
Stock are surrendered, and the persons who are record holders of the shares of
Old Common Stock of the Corporation as of the effective date of this Restated
Certificate of Incorporation shall be treated for all purposes as the record
holders of the shares of Common Stock into which such shares were changed.

                CORPORATION LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE
                ------------------------------------------


      DoubleClick Inc. (the "Corporation"), a corporation organized and 
existing under and by virtue of the General Corporation Law of the State of 
Delaware (the "DGCL"), DOES HEREBY CERTIFY:

      FIRST: That Article FOURTH of the Restated Certificate of Incorporation 
of the Corporation, stating the total number of shares the Corporation is 
authorized to issue, is hereby amended to include the following paragraph (c):

            Each two (2) shares of the Corporation's Common Stock, par value
$.001 per share, issued and outstanding immediately prior to 6:00 P.M. on 
December __, 1997, shall be converted and reclassified automatically effective 
as of December __, 1997 at 6:00 P.M., Delaware time, into one (1) share of 
the Corporation's Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, so that each share 
of the Corporation's Common Stock issued and outstanding is hereby converted 
and reclassified. No fractional interests resulting from such conversion

nearest whole share of Common Stock.

                                       BY-LAWS

                                          OF

                                   DOUBLECLICK INC.


               Section 1. LAW, CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BY-LAWS

    1.1  These by-laws are subject to the certificate of incorporation of the
corporation. In these by-laws, references to law, the certificate of
incorporation and by-laws mean the law, the provisions of the certificate of
incorporation and the by-laws as from time to time in effect.

                               Section 2. STOCKHOLDERS

    2.1  ANNUAL MEETING. The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held at
such place, on such date, and at such time as the board of directors shall each
year fix, which date shall be within thirteen months subsequent to the later of
the last annual meeting of stockholders, at which meeting they shall elect a
board of directors and transact such other business as may be required by law or
these by-laws or as may properly come before the meeting .

    2.2  SPECIAL MEETINGS. A special meeting of the stockholders may be called
at any time by the chairman of the board, if any, the president or the board of
directors. A special meeting of the stockholders shall be called by the
secretary, or in the case of the death, absence, incapacity or refusal of the
secretary, by an assistant secretary or some other officer, upon application of
a majority of the directors. Any such application shall state the purpose or
purposes of the proposed meeting. Any such call shall state the place, date,
hour, and purposes of the meeting.

    2.3  PLACE OF MEETING. All meetings of the stockholders for the election of
directors or for any other purpose shall be held at such place within or without
the State of Delaware as may be determined from time to time by the chairman of
the board, if any, the president or the board of directors. Any adjourned
session of any meeting of the stockholders shall be held at the place designated
in the vote of adjournment.

    2.4  NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Except as otherwise provided by law, a written
notice of each meeting of stockholders stating the place, day and hour thereof
and, in the case of a special meeting, the purposes for which the meeting is
called, shall be given not less then ten nor more than sixty days before the
meeting, to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat, and to each stockholder
who, by law, by the certificate of incorporation or by these by-laws, is
entitled to notice, by leaving such notice with him or at his residence or usual
place of business, or by depositing it in the United States mail, postage
prepaid, and addressed to such stockholder at his address as it appears in the
records of the corporation. Such notice shall be given by the 


                                           
<PAGE>

secretary, or by an officer or person designated by the board of directors, or
in the case of a special meeting by the officer calling the meeting. As to any
adjourned session of any meeting of stockholders, notice of the adjourned
meeting need not be given if the time and place thereof are announced at the
meeting at which the adjournment was taken except that if the adjournment is for
more than thirty days or if after the adjournment a new record date is set for
the adjourned session, notice of any such adjourned session of the meeting shall
be given in the manner heretofore described. No notice of any meeting of
stockholders or any adjourned session thereof need be given to a stockholder if
a written waiver of notice, executed before or after the meeting or such
adjourned session by such stockholder, is filed with the records of the meeting
or if the stockholder attends such meeting without objecting at the beginning of
the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not
lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the
purpose of, any meeting of the stockholders or any adjourned session thereof
need be specified in any written waiver of notice.

    2.5  QUORUM OF STOCKHOLDERS. At any meeting of the stockholders a quorum as
to any matter shall consist of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast on
the matter, except where a larger quorum is required by law, by the certificate
of incorporation or by these bylaws. Any meeting may be adjourned from time to
time by a majority of the votes properly cast upon the question, whether or not
a quorum is present. If a quorum is present at an original meeting, a quorum
need not be present at an adjourned session of that meeting. Shares of its own
stock belonging to the corporation or to another corporation, if a majority of
the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other
corporation is held, directly or indirectly, by the corporation, shall neither
be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that
the foregoing shall not limit the right of any corporation to vote stock,
including but not limited to its own stock, held by it in a fiduciary capacity.

    2.6  ACTION BY VOTE. When a quorum is present at any meeting, a plurality
of the votes properly cast for election to any office shall elect to such office
and a majority of the votes properly cast upon any question other than an
election to an office shall decide the question, except when a larger vote is
required by law, by the certificate of incorporation or by these by-laws. No
ballot shall be required for any election unless requested by a stockholder
present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote in the election.

    2.7  ACTION WITHOUT MEETINGS. Unless otherwise provided in the certificate
of incorporation, any action required or permitted to be taken by stockholders
for or in connection with any corporate action may be taken without a meeting,
without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing,
setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding
stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary
to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all shares entitled to
vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the corporation by
delivery to its registered office in Delaware by hand or certified or registered
mail, return receipt requested, to its principal place of business or to an
officer or agent of the corporation having custody of the book in which
proceedings of meetings of stockholders are recorded. Each such written consent
shall bear the date of signature of each stockholder who signs the consent. No
written 


                                         -2-
<PAGE>

consent shall be effective to take the corporate action referred to therein
unless written consents signed by a number of stockholders sufficient to take
such action are delivered to the corporation in the manner specified in this
paragraph within sixty days of the earliest dated consent so delivered.

         If action is taken by consent of stockholders and in accordance with
the foregoing, there shall be filed with the records of the meetings of
stockholders the writing or writings comprising such consent.

         If action is taken by less than unanimous consent of stockholders,
prompt notice of the taking of such action without a meeting shall be given to
those who have not consented in writing and a certificate signed and attested to
by the secretary that such notice was given shall be filed with the records of
the meetings of stockholders.

         In the event that the action which is consented to is such as would
have required the filing of a certificate under any provision of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, if such action had been voted upon by
the stockholders at a meeting thereof, the certificate filed under such
provision shall state, in lieu of any statement required by such provision
concerning a vote of stockholders, that written consent has been given under
Section 228 of said General Corporation Law and that written notice has been
given as provided in such Section 228.

    2.8  PROXY REPRESENTATION. Every stockholder may authorize another person
or persons to act for him by proxy in all matters in which a stockholder is
entitled to participate, whether by waiving notice of any meeting, objecting to
or voting or participating at a meeting, or expressing consent or dissent
without a meeting. Every proxy must be signed by the stockholder or by his
attorney-in-fact. No proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from
its date unless such proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy
shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and, if, and only as
long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an
irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the
interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an
interest in the corporation generally. The authorization of a proxy may but need
not be limited to specified action, provided, however, that if a proxy limits
its authorization to a meeting or meetings of stockholders, unless otherwise
specifically provided such proxy shall entitle the holder thereof to vote at any
adjourned session but shall not be valid after the final adjournment thereof.

    2.9  INSPECTORS. The directors or the person presiding at the meeting may,
and shall if required by applicable law, appoint one or more inspectors of
election and any substitute inspectors to act at the meeting or any adjournment
thereof. Each inspector, before entering upon the discharge of his duties, shall
take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector at such
meeting with strict impartiality and according to the best of his ability. The
inspectors, if any, shall determine the number of shares of stock outstanding
and the voting power of each, the shares of stock represented at the meeting,
the existence of a quorum, the validity and effect of proxies, and shall receive
votes, ballots or consents, hear and determine 


                                         -3-
<PAGE>

all challenges and questions arising in connection with the right to vote, count
and tabulate all votes, ballots or consents, determine the result, and do such
acts as are proper to conduct the election or vote with fairness to all
stockholders. On request of the person presiding at the meeting, the inspectors
shall make a report in writing of any challenge, question or matte determined by
them and execute a certificate of any fact found by them.

    2.10 LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS.  The secretary shall prepare and make, at least
ten days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the
stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, arranged in alphabetical order
and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered
in his name. The stock ledger shall be the only evidence as to who are
stockholders entitled to examine such list or to vote in person or by proxy at
such meeting.

                            Section 3.  BOARD OF DIRECTORS

    3.1  NUMBER. The corporation shall have one or more directors, the number
of directors to be determined from time to time by vote of a majority of the
stockholders entitled to vote. Except in connection with the election of
directors at the annual meeting of stockholders, the number of directors may be
decreased only to eliminate vacancies by reason of death, resignation or removal
of one or more directors. No director need be a stockholder.

    3.2  TENURE. Except as otherwise provided by law, by the certificate of
incorporation or by these by-laws, each director shall hold office until the
next annual meeting and until his successor is elected and qualified, or until
he sooner dies, resigns, is removed or becomes disqualified.

    3.3  POWERS. The business and affairs of the corporation shall be managed
by or under the direction of the board of directors who shall have and may
exercise all the powers of the corporation and do all such lawful acts and
things as are not by law, the certificate of incorporation or these by-laws
directed or required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

    3.4  VACANCIES. Vacancies and any newly created directorships resulting
from any increase in the number of directors may be filled by vote of the
holders of the particular class or series of stock entitled to elect such
director at a meeting called for the purpose, or by a majority of the directors
then in office, although less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, in
each case elected by the particular class or series of stock entitled to elect
such directors. When one or more directors shall resign from the board,
effective at a future date, a majority of the directors then in office,
including those who have resigned, who were elected by the particular class or
series of stock entitled to elect such resigning director or directors shall
have power to fill such vacancy or vacancies, the vote or action by writing
thereon to take effect when such resignation or resignations shall become
effective. The directors shall have and may exercise all their powers
notwithstanding the existence of one or more vacancies in their number, subject
to any requirements of law or of the certificate of incorporation or of these
by-laws as to the number of directors required for a quorum or for any vote or
other actions.


                                         -4-
<PAGE>

    3.5  COMMITTEES. The board of directors may, by vote of a majority of the
whole board, (a) designate, change the membership of or terminate the existence
of any committee or committees, each committee to consist of one or more of the
directors; (b) designate one or more directors as alternate members of any such
committee who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of
the committee; and (c) determine the extent to which each such committee shall
have and may exercise the powers of the board of directors in the management of
the business and affairs of the corporation, including the power to authorize
the seal of the corporation to be affixed to all papers which require it and the
power and authority to declare dividends or to authorize the issuance of stock;
excepting, however, such powers which by law, by the certificate of
incorporation or by these by-laws they are prohibited from so delegating. In the
absence or disqualification of any member of such committee and his alternate,
if any, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not
disqualified from voting, whether or not constituting a quorum, may unanimously
appoint another member of the board of directors to act at the meeting in the
place of any such absent or disqualified member. Except as the board of
directors may otherwise determine, any committee may make rules for the conduct
of its business, but unless otherwise provided by the board or such rules, its
business shall be conducted as nearly as may be in the same manner as is
provided by these by-laws for the conduct of business by the board of directors.
Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to
the board of directors upon request.

    3.6  REGULAR MEETINGS. Regular meetings of the board of directors may be
held without call or notice at such places within or without the State of
Delaware and at such times as the board may from time to time determine,
provided that notice of the first regular meeting following any such
determination shall be given to absent directors. A regular meeting of the
directors may be held without call or notice immediately after and at the same
place as the annual meeting of stockholders.

    3.7  SPECIAL MEETINGS. Special meetings of the board of directors may be
held at any time and at any place within or without the State of Delaware
designated in the notice of the meeting, when called by the chairman of the
board, if any, the president, or by one-third or more in number of the
directors, reasonable notice thereof being given to each director by the 
secretary or by the chairman of the board, if any, the president or any one of
the directors calling the meeting.

    3.8  NOTICE. It shall be reasonable and sufficient notice to a director to
send notice by mail at least forty-eight hours or by telegram at least
twenty-four hours before the meeting addressed to him at his usual or last known
business or residence address or to give notice to him in person or by telephone
at least twenty-four hours before the meeting. Notice of a meeting need not be
given to any director if a written waiver of notice, executed by him before or
after the meeting, is filed with the records of the meeting, or to any director
who attends the meeting without protesting prior thereto or at its commencement
the lack of notice to him. Neither notice of a meeting nor a waiver of a notice
need specify the purposes of the meeting.


                                         -5-
<PAGE>

    3.9  QUORUM. Except as may be otherwise provided by law, by the certificate
of incorporation or by these by-laws, at any meeting of the directors a majority
of the directors then in office shall constitute a quorum; a quorum shall not in
any case be less than one-third of the total number of directors constituting
the whole board. Any meeting may be adjourned from time to time by a majority of
the votes cast upon the question, whether or not a quorum is present, and the
meeting may be held as adjourned without further notice.

    3.10 ACTION BY VOTE. Except as may be otherwise provided by law, by the
certificate of incorporation or by these by-laws, when a quorum is present at

                          CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
$5,000,000                                                        June 4, 1997
                                                            New York, New York

            FOR VALUE RECEIVED, DoubleClick Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Maker"), promises to pay to the order of Bozell, Jacobs, Kenyon & Eckhardt,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Holder"), the principal amount of FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS ($5,000,000) plus interest on such principal amount at the
interest rate, in the manner and at the times set forth below.

      1. Interest Rate. The Maker hereby agrees to pay interest to the Holder in
respect of the unpaid principal balance of this Note at a per annum rate equal
to the "Federal Short-Term Rate" (as defined in Section 1274(d) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time, and as published from time
to time by the Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service in the
Internal Revenue Bulletin) (the "Interest Rate"). Any change in the Interest
Rate resulting from a change in the Federal Short-Term Rate shall be
automatically effective on the effective date (rather than the publication date)
of each such change in the Federal Short-Term Rate. Such interest shall accrue
on the unpaid principal balance of this Note from and after the date hereof and
shall be payable quarterly with the first quarterly interest payment due on
September 30, 1997 and succeeding quarterly interest payments due on the last
Business Day of each December, March, June and September thereafter (each an
"Interest Payment Date"). All computations of interest hereunder shall be made
on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days (including the
first but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such
interest is payable.

      2. Term. The term of this Note shall be three years from the date hereof.
All unpaid principal, together with any and all accrued and unpaid interest,
shall be due and payable on June___, 2000 (the "Maturity Date").

      3. Payment. Any payment hereunder shall be applied first to the payment of
costs and charges of collection, if any, then to accrued interest, and the
balance, if any, shall be then applied to reduction of principal. Principal and
interest are payable only in lawful money of the United States of America.

      4. Late Payment. The Maker agrees that if for any reason it fails to pay
any amount due at any Interest Payment Date, at the Maturity Date or upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default, within five (5) business days after such
date, the Holder shall be entitled to damages for the detriment caused thereby,
the extent of which damages are extremely difficult and impractical to
ascertain. The Maker therefore agrees to pay default interest on such delinquent
amount at a per annum rate equal to the Federal Short Term Rate plus 1%.
<PAGE>

Acceptance of such default interest by the Holder shall in no event constitute a
waiver of the Makers' default with respect to such overdue amount nor prevent
the Holder from exercising any of the other rights and remedies granted
hereunder. Acceptance by the Holder of any payment under this Note after the
date that such payment is due shall not constitute a waiver of the right to
declare a default as herein provided for any failure to so pay.

      5. Subordination. (a) The payment of principal of and interest under this
Note is subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, in
right of payment to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness. These subordination
provisions are made for the benefit of all parties who, in reliance upon such
provisions, are holders of, become holders of or continue to hold Senior
Indebtedness, and they or any of them may proceed to enforce such provisions
against the Holder without the necessity of joining the Maker as a party. The
Holder and any transferee of the Note agree to confirm in writing to any holder
of Senior Indebtedness or any prospective holder of Senior Indebtedness
identified to the Holder or such transferee by the Company the subordination
provisions set forth in this Section 5.

      (b) The term "Senior Indebtedness" as used herein means and includes
indebtedness of the Maker, including interest and penalties thereon, for money
borrowed by the Maker from any commercial lender or institutional investor,
whether outstanding on the date hereof or thereafter created or incurred, which
is not by its terms subordinate and junior to or ranking pari passu with this
Note.

      (c) In the event of any distribution of assets upon any dissolution,
winding up, liquidation, or reorganization of the Maker (whether in bankruptcy,
insolvency, or receivership proceedings), or upon any assignment for the benefit
of creditors, all Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full before any
payment shall be made by the Maker in respect of the principal of or interest
then owed under this Note. Any such payment or distribution which, but for the
provisions hereof, would be payable or deliverable in respect of the Note, shall
be paid or delivered directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their
representatives, in the proportions in which they hold the same, until all
Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, and the Holder and any
transferee of the Note by becoming a holder thereof shall be deemed to have
designated and appointed each holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness (and
their duly authorized representatives) as it agents and attorneys-in-fact to
file any necessary proof of claim not otherwise filed.

      (d) During the periods specified below, no payment of principal, premium
or interest on the Note shall be made by the Maker or accepted by the Holder who
has received notice from a holder of Senior Indebtedness of a default under the
terms of such Senior Indebtedness: (i) for a 180-day period commencing upon
default in the payment of any principal or interest on the Senior Indebtedness
held by such holder, but any such period shall end earlier upon payment or the
curing or written waiver of the default or (ii) during any period which such
holder of Senior Indebtedness is prosecuting judicial proceedings to collect any
principal or interest on such Senior Indebtedness.


                                    -2-
<PAGE>

      (e) If in violation of the terms of this subordination, any Holder or
transferee of the Note receives payment before all Senior Indebtedness is paid
in full, such payment shall be held in trust for and paid ratably to the holder
of Senior Indebtedness or their representatives until all Senior Indebtedness
shall have been paid in full.

      (f) Upon the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the Holder or
transferee of the Note shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of
Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Maker
applicable to Senior Indebtedness. No such payments or distributions applicable
to the Senior Indebtedness shall, as between the Maker, its creditors (other
than holders of Senior Indebtedness) and the holder of the Note shall be deemed
to be a payment by the Maker to or on account of the Note.

      6. Default/Acceleration. If any one or more of the following events shall
occur (hereinafter called an "Event of Default"), namely: (i) the Maker shall
become insolvent, or shall be unable to pay its debts as they mature; or shall
admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they mature; or shall make an
assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or shall file or commence or have
filed or commenced against it any proceeding for any relief under any bankruptcy
or insolvency law or any law or laws relating to the relief of debtors which is
not dismissed or stayed within 60 days of the filing or commencement thereof,
readjustment of indebtedness, reorganizations, compositions or extensions, or a
receiver or trustee shall be appointed for the undersigned; (ii) the Maker shall
dissolve, or otherwise wind-up its affairs; or (iii) the Maker shall enter into
any transaction of merger or consolidation into or with another corporation,
THEN, upon the occurrence of any such Event of Default, or upon the expiration
of the term of this Note, the Holder at its election, and without presentment,
demand, notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Maker, may
declare the entire outstanding balance of principal and interest thereon
immediately due and payable, together with all costs of collection, including
attorneys' fees, or may exercise upon or enforce its rights, to the fullest
extent permitted by applicable law.

      7. No Waiver By Holder. The acceptance by the Holder of any payment under
this Note after the date such payment is due, or the failure to declare an Event
of Default as herein provided, shall not constitute a waiver of any of the terms
of this Note or the right to require the prompt payment when due of future or
succeeding payments or to declare an Event of Default for any failure to so pay
or for any other default.

      8. Attorney's Fees And Costs. In the event the Holder takes any action to
enforce any provision of this Note, either through legal proceedings or
otherwise, the Maker promises to immediately reimburse the Holder for reasonable
attorneys' fees and all other costs and expenses so incurred. The Maker shall
also reimburse Holder for all attorneys' fees and costs reasonably incurred in
the representation of the Holder in any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization
or other debtor-relief proceeding of or relating to the Maker, or for any action
to enforce any judgment rendered hereon or relating to enforcement hereof.

presentment, notice of non-payment, protest and notice of protest and expressly

liability.

in form reasonably satisfactory to the Maker, duly executed by the Holder or its
attorney duly authorized in writing. The date of receipt by the Maker of this
Note and above-described notice shall be the conversion date (the "Conversion
Date") and the conversion shall be deemed effective as of the close of business
on the Conversion Date. No fractional shares of Common Stock shall be issued
upon conversion of the unpaid principal balance of this Note. The Maker shall,
as soon as practicable, and no more than five Business Days, after the
Conversion Date, issue and deliver to the Holder, or to its nominees, a
certificate or certificates for the number of shares of Common Stock to which
the Holder shall be entitled, together with an amount of cash in lieu of any
fraction of a share (to which the Holder would otherwise be entitled but for the
preceding sentence) which shall be equal to the product of such fraction
multiplied by the Conversion Price. If Common Stock is to be issued to a person
other than the Holder, such person or the Holder shall pay all applicable stock
transfer taxes.

      (c) The Maker shall at all times prior to the Maturity Date, reserve and
keep available out of its authorized but unissued stock, for the purpose of
effecting the conversion of this Note, such number of its duly authorized shares
of Common Stock as shall from time to time be sufficient to effect the
conversion of all this Note into Common Stock pursuant to this Section 11.
Before taking any action that would cause an adjustment reducing the Conversion
Price below the then-existing par value of the shares of Common Stock issuable
upon conversion of the Preferred Stock, the Maker shall take any corporate
action that may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary in order that the
Maker may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of
Common Stock at such adjusted Conversion Price.

      (d) Upon surrender of this Note for conversion as herein provided, this
Note shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and all rights of the Holder
with respect to this Note shall immediately cease and terminate at the close of
business on the Conversion Date (except the right of the Holder to receive (i)
shares of Common Stock in exchange therefor (ii) unpaid interest accrued prior
to conversion and (iii) any costs and charges payable hereunder).

      (e) No adjustment shall be made in the Conversion Price as the result of
the issuance of Additional Shares of Common Stock or otherwise, unless the
consideration per share determined pursuant to subpart (h) of this Section 11
for an Additional Share of Common Stock issued or deemed to be issued by the
Maker is less than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of, and
immediately prior to, the issuance of such Additional Shares of Common Stock.

      (f) If the Maker at any time or from time to time shall issue any Options
or Convertible Securities, or shall fix a record date for the determination of
holders of any class of securities entitled to receive any such Options or
Convertible Securities, then the maximum number of shares of Common Stock (as
set forth in the instrument relating thereto without regard to any provision
contained therein for a subsequent adjustment of such number) issuable upon the
exercise of such Options or, in the case of Convertible Securities and Options
therefor, the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, shall be
deemed to be Additional Shares of Common Stock issued as of the time of such
issue or, in case such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the close of
business on such record date, provided, that Additional


                                    -5-
<PAGE>

Shares of Common Stock shall not be deemed to have been issued unless the
consideration per share determined pursuant to subpart (h) of this Section 11 of
such Additional Shares of Common Stock would be less than the Conversion Price
in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such issue, or such record
date, as the case may be, and provided, further, that in any such case in which
Additional Shares of Common Stock are deemed to be issued:

                  (i) no further adjustment in the Conversion Price shall be
            made upon the subsequent issue of Convertible Securities or shares
            of Common Stock upon the exercise of such Options or conversion or
            exchange of such Convertible Securities;

                  (ii) if such Options or Convertible Securities by their terms
            provide, with the passage of time or otherwise, for any increase in
            the consideration payable to the Maker, or decrease in the number of
            shares of Common Stock issuable, upon the exercise, conversion or
            exchange thereof, the Conversion Price computed upon the original
            issue thereof (or upon the occurrence of a record date with respect
            thereto), and any subsequent adjustments based thereon, shall, upon
            any such increase or decrease becoming effective, be recomputed to
            reflect such increase or decrease insofar as it affects such Options
            or the right of conversion or exchange under such Convertible
            Securities.

                  (iii) upon the expiration of any such Options or any rights of
            conversion or exchange under such Convertible Securities which shall
            not have been exercised, the Conversion Price computed upon the
            original issue thereof (or upon the occurrence of a record date with
            respect thereto) and any subsequent adjustments based thereon shall,
            upon such expiration, be recomputed as if: (A) in the case of
            Convertible Securities or Options for Common Stock, the only
            Additional Shares of Common Stock issued were the shares of Common
            Stock, if any, actually issued upon the exercise of such Options or
            the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities and the
            consideration received therefor was the consideration actually
            received by the Maker for the issue of all such Options, whether or
            not exercised, plus the consideration actually received by the Maker
            upon such exercise, or for the issue of all such Convertible
            Securities which were actually converted or exchanged, plus the
            additional consideration, if any, actually received by the Maker
            upon such conversion or exchange and (B) in the case of Options for
            Convertible Securities, only the Convertible Securities, if any,
            actually issued upon the exercise thereof were issued at the time of
            issue of such Options, and the consideration received by the Maker
            for the Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been then
            issued was the consideration actually received by the Maker for the
            issue of all such Options, whether or not exercised, plus the
            consideration deemed to have been received by the Maker determined
            pursuant to subpart (h) of this Section 11 upon the issue of the
            Convertible Securities with respect to which such Options were
            actually exercised;


                                    -6-
<PAGE>

                  (iv) no recomputation pursuant to the preceding clauses (ii)
            and (iii) shall have the effect of increasing the Conversion Price
            to an amount that exceeds the lower of (x) the Conversion Price on
            the original adjustment date with respect to the original issuance
            of such Options or Convertible Securities, or (y) the Conversion
            Price that would have resulted from any issuance of Additional
            Shares of Common Stock between the original adjustment date with
            respect to the original issuance of such Options or Convertible
            Securities and such recomputation date;

                  (v) in the case of any Options which expire by their terms not
            more than thirty (30) days after the date of issue thereof, no
            adjustment of the Conversion Price shall be made until the
            expiration or exercise of all such Options, whereupon such
            adjustment shall be made in the same manner provided in clause (iii)
            above; and

                  (vi) if such record date have been fixed and such Options or
            Convertible Securities are not issued on the date fixed therefor,
            the adjustment previously made in the Conversion Price which became
            effective on such record date shall be canceled as of the close of
            business on such record date, and thereafter the Conversion Price
            shall be adjusted pursuant to this subpart (f) as of the actual date
            of their issuance.

      (g) In the event the Maker at any time or from time to time after the date
hereof shall declare or pay any dividend or make any other distribution on the
Common Stock payable in Common Stock, or effect a subdivision of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a
dividend in Common Stock), then and in any such event, Additional Shares of
Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued: (i) in the case of any such
dividend or distribution, immediately after the close of business on the record
date for the determination of holders of any class of securities entitled to
receive such dividend or distribution, or (ii) in the case of any such
subdivision, at the close of business on the date immediately prior to the date
upon which such corporate action becomes effective. If such record date shall
have been fixed and such dividend shall not have been fully paid on the date
fixed therefor, the adjustment previously made in the Conversion Price which
became effective on such record date shall be canceled as of the close of
business on such record date, and thereafter the Conversion Price shall be
adjusted pursuant to this subpart (g) as of the time of actual payment of such
dividend.

      (h) If the Maker shall issue Additional Shares of Common Stock, including
Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued pursuant to subpart (f) of
this Section 11, but excluding Additional Shares of Common Stock issued pursuant
to subpart (g) of this Section 11, which event is dealt with in subpart (j) of
this Section 11, without consideration or for a consideration per share less
than the Conversion Price in effect on the date of and immediately prior to such
issuer, then and in such event, such Conversion Price shall be reduced,
concurrently with such issue in order to increase the number of shares of Common
Stock into


                                    -7-
<PAGE>

which this Note is convertible, to a price (calculated to the nearest cent)
determined by multiplying such Conversion Price by a fraction (x) the numerator
of which shall be (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding
immediately prior to such issue (including shares of Common Stock issuable upon
conversion of any outstanding Options or Convertible Securities), plus (B) the
number of shares of Common Stock which the aggregate consideration received by
the Maker for the total number of Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued
would purchase at such Conversion Price, and (y) the denominator of which shall
be (A) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to
such issue (including shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any
outstanding Options or Convertible Securities), plus (B) the number of such
Additional Shares of Common Stock so issued, provided that the Conversion Price
shall not be so reduced at such time if the amount of such reduction would be an
amount less than $.001, but any such amount shall be carried forward and
reduction with respect thereto made at the time of and together with any
subsequent reduction which, together with such amount and any other amounts so
carried forward, shall aggregate $.001 or more.

      (i) For purposes of this subpart (i), the consideration received by the
Maker for the issue of any Additional Shares of Common Stock shall be computed
as follows:

                  (i) Such consideration shall: (A) insofar as it consists of
            cash, be computed at the aggregate of cash received by the Maker,
            excluding amounts paid or payable for accrued interest or accrued
            dividends; (B) insofar as it consists of property other than cash,
            be computed at the fair market value thereof at the time of such
            issue, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the
            Maker; and (C) in the event Additional Shares of Common Stock are
            issued together with other shares or securities or other assets of
            the Maker for consideration which covers both, be the proportion of
            such consideration so received, computed as provided in the
            foregoing clauses (A) and (B), as determined in good faith by the
            Board of Directors of the Maker.

                  (ii) The consideration per share received by the Corporation
            for Additional Shares of Common Stock deemed to have been issued
            pursuant to Section subpart (f) of this Section 11, relating to
            Options and Convertible Securities, shall be determined by dividing:
            (A) the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Maker as
            consideration for the issue of such Options or Convertible
            Securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount of additional
            consideration (as set forth in the instruments relating thereto,
            without regard to any provision contained therein for a subsequent
            adjustment of such consideration until such subsequent adjustment
            occurs) payable to the Maker upon the exercise of such Options or
            the conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the
            case of Options for Convertible Securities and the conversion or
            exchange of such Convertible Securities, or in the case of Options
            for Convertible Securities, the exercise of such Options for
            Convertible Securities and the conversion or exchange of such
            Convertible Securities, by (B) the maximum


                                    -8-
<PAGE>

            number of shares of Common Stock (as set forth in the instruments
            relating thereto, without regard to any provision contained therein
            for a subsequent adjustment of such number until such subsequent
            adjustment occurs) issuable upon the exercise of such Options or the
            conversion or exchange of such Convertible Securities.

      (j) In the event the outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be split,
subdivided, combined or consolidated, by reclassification or otherwise, into a
greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, and in the event that the
Maker shall issue shares of Common Stock by way of stock dividend or other
distribution to the holders of Common Stock, the Conversion Price in effect
immediately prior to such split, subdivision, stock dividend, combination or
consolidation shall, concurrently with the effectiveness of such split,
subdivision, stock dividend, combination or consolidation, be increased or
decreased proportionately.

      (k) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the
Conversion Price pursuant to this Section 11, the Maker at its expense shall
promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms
hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or
readjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or
readjustment is based. The Maker shall, upon the written request at any time of
the Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a similar certificate
setting forth (i) such adjustments and readjustments, (ii) the Conversion Price
then in effect, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount,
if any, of other property that then would be received upon the conversion of
this Note.

      (l) If at any time or from time to time there shall be a merger or
consolidation of the Maker with or into another corporation, or the sale of all
or substantially all of the assets of the Maker to any other corporation
(collectively, an "Acquisition"), then, as a part of such Acquisition, provision
shall be made so that the Holder shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon
conversion of this Note, the number of shares of stock or other securities or
property of the Maker, or of the successor corporation resulting from such
Acquisition, to which a holder of Common Stock issuable upon conversion would
have been entitled on such Acquisition. In any such case, appropriate adjustment
(as determined by the Board of Directors of the Maker) shall be made in the
application of the provisions of this Section 11 with respect to the rights and
interest thereafter of the Holder after the Acquisition to the end that the
provisions of this Section 11 (including adjustment of the Conversion Price then
in effect and the number of shares acquirable upon conversion of this Note)
shall be applicable after the Acquisition in as nearly equivalent a manner as
may be practicable. The Holder upon the occurrence of an Acquisition, shall have
the option of electing to exercise its rights under either this Section 11 or
Section 5, notice of which election shall be submitted in writing to the Maker
at the Maker's Notice Address no later than five days before the effective date
of such Acquisition.

      (m) In the event that there occurs any of the following events:


                                    -9-
<PAGE>

                  (i) the Maker declares a dividend (or any other distribution)
            on its Common Stock payable in Common Stock or other securities of
            the Maker;

                  (ii) the Maker subdivides or combines its outstanding shares
            of Common Stock;

                  (iii) there occurs or is proposed to occur any
            reclassification of the Common Stock of the Maker (other than a
            subdivision or combination of its outstanding shares of Common Stock
            or a stock dividend or stock distribution thereon), or of any
            consolidation or merger of the Maker into or with another
            corporation, or of the sale of all or substantially all of the
            assets of the Maker; or

                  (iv) the involuntary or voluntary liquidation, dissolution, or
            winding-up of the Maker.

then the Maker shall cause to be mailed to the Holder, at the Holder's Notice
Office, at least ten days prior to the record date specified in (A) below or
twenty days before the date specified in (B) below, a notice stating the
following information:

            (A) the record date of such dividend, distribution, subdivision or
      combination, or, if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the
      holders of Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend,
      distribution, subdivision, or combination are to be determined, or

            (B) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger,
      sale, liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up is expected to become
      effective, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of Common
      Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock
      for securities or other property deliverable upon such reclassification,
      consolidation, merger, sale, liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up.

      (n) The Maker will not, by amendment of its Certification of Incorporation
or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger,
dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or
seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed
or performed hereunder by the Maker but will at all times in good faith assist
in the carrying out of all the provisions of this Section 11 and in the taking
of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the
conversion rights of the Holder against impairment.

      (o) All shares of Common Stock received upon the conversion of this Note
shall be deemed "Group B Shares" under the Stockholders Agreement dated as of
June ___, 1997, among the Maker, the Holder and the stockholders of the Maker
party thereto (the "Stockholders Agreement"). If this Note is held by a party
other than the original Holder, no conversion of this Note into Common Stock
shall be effective until such party delivers to the Maker a written


                                    -10-
<PAGE>

acknowledgement and agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
the Maker that any shares of Common Stock of the Maker received upon the
conversion of this Note shall be deemed "Group B Shares" and that such party
shall be deemed a "Group B Stockholder" under the Stockholders Agreement.

      12. Cancellation of Note. Upon the consummation of a Liquidation Event (as
defined in the Maker's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation) with a
Liquidation Event Value (as defined in the Maker's Amended and Restated

                                1996 STOCK OPTION PLAN

                                      ARTICLE I

                                  GENERAL PROVISIONS


         1.1  PURPOSE.  The DOUBLECLICK INCORPORATED 1996 STOCK OPTION PLAN
(the "Plan") has been established by DoubleClick Incorporated, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), to secure for the Company and its stockholders the
benefits arising from capital stock ownership by those employees and officers of
the Company who will be responsible for its future growth and continued success.
The Plan will provide a means whereby such employees and officers may purchase
shares of the common stock, $.001 par value, of the Company ("Common Stock")
pursuant to options granted hereunder ("Options"). In so doing, it is intended
that the Plan serve to help the Company attract and retain such employees and
officers by making it possible to offer them an increased incentive to join, or
continue in the service of, the Company and to increase their efforts for its
welfare.

         1.2  ADMINISTRATION.  The Plan will be administered and interpreted by
the Company's Board of Directors or by such committee of directors or
administrator to whom the Board of Directors may delegate such authority and
responsibility (the "Committee/Administrator"). In any event, administration
will be subject in all respects to the supervisory prerogative of the Company's
Board of Directors. The Committee/Administrator will have complete discretion
within the authority delegated by the Board of Directors to control the
operation of the Plan, including participation in the Plan. Members of the
Committee or the Administrator shall not be liable for any action or
determination made in good faith and permitted by the terms of the Plan.

         1.3  PARTICIPATION.  Subject to the terms of the Plan, and, in the
case of Incentive Stock Options (as described in Article II), subject to the
requirements for qualification as such under Section 422 of the 1986 Internal
Revenue Code, as amended, (the "Code") and any successor provision, the
Committee/Administrator shall determine and designate, from time to time, the
employees and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries, including employees
and officers of the Company and its subsidiaries who are directors of the
Company and its subsidiaries, to whom Options are to be granted (the
"Participants"), the number of shares of Common Stock that shall be subject to
Options granted to each Participant, the terms and conditions of each Option,
the voting and transfer restrictions to which the shares of Common Stock
obtainable upon exercise of each Option shall be subject, and whether each
Option shall constitute an Incentive Stock Option, a Non-Qualified Option (as
described in Article III), or some combination of the foregoing.


                                           
<PAGE>

         1.4  SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.  The shares of stock that may be
subject to Options under the Plan shall be unissued shares of Common Stock and
shares of Common Stock held in treasury. All shares of stock that may be subject
to Options under the Plan shall be subject to the provisions of the
Securityholders Agreement dated as of January 26, 1996, among the Company, Poppe
Tyson, Inc. and the other persons executing that agreement as Securityholders,
as the same may be amended from time to time (the "Securityholders Agreement").
The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock for which Options may be granted
under the Plan shall not exceed 2,277,180 shares, subject to such adjustments as
may take place in accordance with Section 1.12. If, as to any number of shares,
any Option granted pursuant to the Plan expires or terminates while the Plan
remains in effect, such number of shares shall again be available for grant
under the Plan.

         1.5  OPTION PRICE.  The price at which a share of Common Stock may be
purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option under the Plan shall be fixed by
the Committee/Administrator on the date the Option is granted, and in the case
of Incentive Stock Options, shall be as set forth in Section 2.1.

         1.6  OPTION EXPIRATION DATE.  The "Expiration Date" with respect to an
Option granted to a Participant under the Plan means the earlier of (i) the date
established by the Committee/Administrator as the date on which the maximum
period of time of such Option would elapse (but in no event shall such period of
time be longer than ten years, measured from the date on which the Option is
granted), or (ii) the date specified in Section 1.8 or 4.2.

         1.7  EXERCISE OF OPTION.  Each Option shall be exercisable at such
time or times as shall be established hereunder. The Committee/Administrator
may, in its discretion, accelerate the exercisability of any one or more Options
at any time and for any reason, provided that, if the exercisability of any
Incentive Stock Options is accelerated in a way that causes them no longer to
comply with the provisions of Article II below, then such Incentive Stock
Options shall automatically become Non-Qualified Options as defined in Article
III below to such extent as may be necessary to preserve the qualification of
the maximum number of Options for treatment as Incentive Stock Options (and such
recharacterization shall be effected in the reverse order in which such Options
were granted, such that the most recently granted Incentive Stock Options shall
be recharacterized as Non-Qualified Options first). A Participant may exercise
an Option by giving written notice (the "Exercise Notice") thereof prior to the
Option's Expiration Date to the Secretary or other designated officer of the
Company at the Company's corporate headquarters.

         The full purchase price of the shares purchased pursuant to the
exercise of an Option shall be paid, in cash, or, if permitted by the
Committee/Administrator, by tender of stock certificates in proper form for
transfer to the Company representing shares of Common Stock valued at the Fair
Market Value (as described in Article II) of the Common Stock on the preceding
business day, or by any combination of the foregoing, contemporaneously with the
giving of the Exercise Notice. In addition, the Participant shall pay to the
Company at 


                                         -2-
<PAGE>

the time of exercise, or shall otherwise make arrangements satisfactory to the
Committee/Administrator regarding payment of, any additional amount that the
Committee/Administrator deems necessary to satisfy the Company's liability to
withhold federal, state or local income or other taxes incurred by reason of
exercise of the Option.

         1.8  TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.  The Committee/Administrator shall
have the power to specify, with respect to the Options granted to any particular
Participant the effect upon such Participant's right to exercise an Option of
the termination of such Participant's employment under various circumstances,
which effect may include immediate or deferred termination of such Participant's
rights under an Option, or acceleration of the date at which an Option may be
exercised in full; provided, however, that Incentive Options shall be subject to
the provisions of Section 2.3. In the event of exercise of any Option after the
termination of employment (including by reason of death or disability), the
Participant may exercise the Option only with regard to the shares that could
have been obtained under Options exercisable on the date of termination of
employment.

         1.9  COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS.  Notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan, the Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of
Common Stock under the Plan unless such issuance is in compliance with all
applicable laws and any applicable requirements of any securities exchange on
which the Common Stock is traded. Prior to the issuance of any shares of Common
Stock under the Plan, the Company may require a written statement from the
recipient as evidence of such compliance, including an acknowledgment by the
recipient that the recipient is acquiring the shares for investment and not for
the purpose or with the intention of distributing the shares.

         1.10 TRANSFERABILITY AND RESTRICTIONS UPON TRANSFER AND VOTING. 
Options under the Plan are not transferable except by will or under the laws of
descent and distribution. Options may be exercised during the lifetime of the
Participant only by the Participant. As provided in Section 1.4, shares of
Common Stock received upon exercise of Options granted under the Plan shall be
subject to the provisions of the Securityholders Agreement. Certificates
representing such shares shall bear a legend referring to such Agreement. Shares
of Common Stock received upon exercise of Options granted under the Plan may, in
addition, be subject to such voting and transfer restrictions as the
Committee/Administrator in its sole discretion shall establish at the time such
Options are granted. If the transfer or voting of shares obtained upon exercise
of an Option is restricted, certificates representing such shares may also bear
a legend referring to such restrictions.

         1.11 EMPLOYMENT AND STOCKHOLDER STATUS.  This Plan, any document
describing this Plan, the grant of any Option hereunder, and any agreement
evidencing the grant of such Option shall not be construed to give any
Participant or any other employee a right to continued employment by the Company
or affect the right of the Company to terminate the employment of any such
person with or without cause. The grant of an Option under the Plan shall not
confer upon the holder thereof any right as a stockholder of the Company. No
person entitled to exercise any Option granted under the Plan shall have any of 


                                         -3-
<PAGE>

the rights or privileges of a stockholder of record with respect to any shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Option until such Option is
exercised and certificates representing such shares have been issued and
delivered.

         1.12 ADJUSTMENTS AND OWNERSHIP CHANGES.  In the event of any change in
the outstanding shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock
split, or similar corporate change involving the Common Stock, the aggregate
number and kind of shares subject to Options outstanding or to be granted under
the Plan shall be proportionately adjusted or modified, and the terms of any
outstanding Option shall be adjusted or modified accordingly.

         In the event of any merger, consolidation, reorganization, division or
other corporate transaction in which the Common Stock is converted into another
security or into the right to receive securities or property of the Company or
of any other entity (an "Ownership Change"), the Company shall have the right,
at its discretion, to provide for the assumption or substitution of comparable
stock options in place of the Options theretofore granted hereunder.

         In the event such an Ownership Change takes place and provision is not
made for such assumption or substitution, or in the event that the Company sells
all or substantially all of its assets, or engages in a liquidation of all or
substantially all of its assets (a "Termination Event"), the
Committee/Administrator may, in its discretion, accelerate the exercisability of
any one or more Options in accordance with Section 1.7. It is the policy of the
Company that the decision whether to accelerate the exercisablity of outstanding
Options take into account such factors as the profitability of the transaction
giving rise to the Termination Event to the stockholders of the Company, the
likelihood that the business of the Company will substantially continue under
the same, different or changed ownership following such transaction, the tenure
and performance of individual Participants, the possibility that some or all of
the Participants receive or are invited to participate in benefits or benefit
plans if they continue as employees of the successor to the Company's business
or other consideration in connection with such transaction, and any other
factors that may be appropriate within the scope of their business judgment.
Whether or not such an acceleration occurs, all outstanding exercisable and
non-exercisable Options shall be cancelled to the extent they remain unexercised
at the time such transaction is consummated. The determination of the
Committee/Administrator in its sole discretion with respect to all such matters
shall be final and binding.

         In no event shall any fraction of a share of stock be issued upon the
exercise of an Option.

         1.13 AGREEMENT WITH COMPANY.  At the time of a grant of an Option, the
Committee/Administrator shall require a Participant to enter into a written
agreement with the Company in a form specified by the Committee/Administrator.
Such agreement shall reflect the Participant's agreement to the terms and
conditions of the Plan and to such 


                                         -4-
<PAGE>

additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as the
Committee/Administrator may, in its sole discretion, prescribe. No Option
purported to be granted pursuant to the Plan shall be valid or binding on the
Company unless evidenced by a written agreement and approved by the
Committee/Administrator.


                                      ARTICLE II

                               INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS

         In addition to the requirements of Articles I and IV, Incentive Stock
Options shall be subject to the following provisions:

         2.1  EXERCISE PRICE.  The exercise price of an Incentive Stock Option
shall not be less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at the time
such Option is granted. For purposes of this Plan" Fair Market Value" shall mean
(a) the closing sales price of the Common Stock, regular way, first preceding
the time at which Fair Market Value is to be determined, on the national
securities exchange having the greatest volume of trading in the Common Stock
during the thirty-day period preceding the day the value is to be determined; or
(b)if the Common Stock is not traded on any national securities exchange, the
closing sales price of the Common Stock first preceding the time at which Fair
Market Value is to be determined, as reported on the National Association of
Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System  (NASDAQ) National Market System,
or any successor system; or (c) if the trading of the Common Stock is not
reported by the NASDAQ National Market System, the average of the closing bid
and asked prices of the Common Stock on the over-the-counter market first
preceding the time at which Fair Market Value is to be determined, as reported
by NASDAQ, or any other national quotation service; or (d) if the Common Stock
is not traded on a national exchange nor on the over-the-counter market, the
fair market value as determined by the Board of Directors or the
Committee/Administrator based on such relevant facts as may be available to it,
which may include the price at which securities of reasonably comparable
corporations in the same industry are being traded (subject to appropriate
adjustments for the absence of a public market and other dissimilarities between
the Company and such corporations), the earnings history, book value and
prospects of the Company in light of market conditions generally, the prices for
recent sales of the Common Stock, opinions of independent experts, and such
other evidence as the Board of Directors or the Committee/Administrator, as the
case may be, determines it may rely on in making a good faith valuation.

         The closing sales prices and closing bid and asked prices in clauses
(a), (b) and (c) shall be those published in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL. If such
prices are not reported for the day Fair Market Value is to be determined,
prices reported for the first preceding day for which such information is
available shall be used.


                                         -5-
<PAGE>

         2.2  LIMITATION ON OPTIONS.  The aggregate Fair Market Value of all
shares of Common Stock (determined at the time the Incentive Stock Option is
granted) that are subject to Incentive Stock Options granted by the Company to a
Participant under the Plan and any other similar plans, including plans of a
subsidiary, then in effect, and that become exercisable for the first time
during any calendar year, may not exceed $100,000.

         2.3  CONTINUED EMPLOYMENT.  No Option granted under the Plan shall
qualify as an Incentive Stock Option unless at all times during the period
beginning on the date of the granting of the Option and ending on the day three
months before the date of exercise of the Option, the Participant is an employee
of either the Company, a parent or subsidiary corporation of the Company, or a
corporation or a parent or subsidiary corporation of such corporation issuing or
assuming a stock Option in a transaction to which Section 424(a) of the Code
applies (subject to such exceptions provided by the Code and applicable Treasury
Regulations). Whether military, government or other service or other leave of
absence of a Participant shall constitute a termination of employment for such
purposes and whether the requirements of this section are otherwise satisfied,
shall be determined in each case by the Committee/Administrator in accordance
with the principles and requirements of Sections 421, 422 and 424 of the Code
and applicable Treasury Regulations.

         2.4  SPECIAL RULE FOR TEN PERCENT STOCKHOLDER.  If at the time an
Incentive Stock Option is granted, a Participant owns stock possessing more than
ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of
the Company, as determined using the attribution rules of Section 424(d) of the
Code, then the terms of the Incentive Stock Option shall specify that the
exercise price shall be at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the shares of
Common Stock that are subject to the Incentive Stock Option, and such Incentive
Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five years from
the date such Incentive Stock Option is granted.

         2.5  INTERPRETATION.  In interpreting this Article II of the Plan and
the provisions of individual Option agreements, the Committee/Administrator
shall be governed by the principles and requirements of Sections 421, 422 and
424 of the Code, and applicable Treasury Regulations.

                                     ARTICLE III

                              NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS


         In addition to the requirements of Articles I and IV, Nonqualified
Stock Options shall be subject to the following provisions:

         3.1  EXERCISE PRICE.  The Company may elect to grant Nonqualified
Stock Options at a price less than the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock at
the time such Option is granted.

         3.2  SECTION 83(B) ELECTION.  The Company recognizes that Participants
who receive Nonqualified Stock Options may be subject to restrictions regarding
their right to trade Common Stock under applicable securities laws, the
Securityholders Agreement or other transfer restrictions imposed by agreement
with the Company. Such may cause such Participant's exercising such Options not
to be taxable under the provisions of Section 83(a) and/or (c) of the Code.
Accordingly, Participants exercising such Nonqualified Stock Options may
consider making an election to be taxed upon exercise of such Options under
Section 83(b) of the Code. To effect such election (if made by the Participant),
the Company will file such election with the Internal Revenue Service within
thirty (30) days of exercise of the Option and otherwise in accordance with
applicable Treasury Regulations.


                                      ARTICLE IV

                                ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS


         4.1  STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL.  The Plan shall be submitted for the
approval of the stockholders of the Company no later than one year after its
approval by the Board of Directors. If at said meeting or during such period the
stockholders of the Company do not approve the Plan, then no Incentive Stock
Options may be granted under the Plan, and all Options previously granted shall
be nonqualified.

         4.2  FORFEITURE FOR COMPETITION.  If an Optionee provides services to
a competitor of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, whether as an employee,
officer, director, independent contractor, consultant, agent or otherwise, such
services being of a nature that can reasonably be expected to involve the skills
and experience used or developed by the Optionee while an employee of the
Company, then that Optionee's rights under any Options outstanding hereunder
shall be forfeited and terminated, subject to a determination to the contrary by
the Committee/Administrator.

         4.3  EFFECTIVE DATE.  The Plan shall become effective as of February
1, 1996 subject, with respect to Incentive Stock Options, to stockholder
approval pursuant to Section 4.1 (the "Effective Date") and shall expire on the
date falling ten years after the Effective Date. No Options may be granted under
the Plan after ten years after the Effective Date, but Options granted on or
before that date may be exercised according to the terms of the Option
agreements and shall continue to be governed by and interpreted consistent with
the terms hereof.

         4.4  AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF PLAN.  Subject to any approval of
the stockholders of the Company as may be required by law, the Board of
Directors of the Company may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan.
No amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan (other than in connection
with such actions as are expressly authorized in the Plan) shall adversely
affect or impair any Option previously granted under the Plan without the
consent of the holder thereof.

         4.5  GOVERNING LAW.  This Plan shall be governed by and construed
according to the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts
of law rules thereof.


APPROVED BY THE STOCKHOLDERS ON MARCH 1, 1996.

                               DOUBLECLICK, INC.

                                  ARTICLE ONE

                              GENERAL PROVISIONS

     I.     PURPOSE OF THE PLAN

            This 1997 Stock Incentive Plan is intended to promote the interests
of DoubleClick, Inc., a Delaware corporation, by providing eligible persons with
the opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest, or otherwise increase their
proprietary interest, in the Corporation as an incentive for them to remain in
the service of the Corporation.

            Capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in
the attached Appendix.

    II.     STRUCTURE OF THE PLAN

            A. The Plan shall be divided into three separate equity programs:

                  (i) the Discretionary Option Grant Program under which
eligible persons may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be granted
options to purchase shares of Common Stock,

                  (ii) the Stock Issuance Program under which eligible persons
may, at the discretion of the Plan Administrator, be issued shares of Common
Stock directly, either through the immediate purchase of such shares or as a
bonus for services rendered the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary), and

                  (iii) the Automatic Option Grant Program under which eligible
non-employee Board members shall automatically receive option grants at periodic
intervals to purchase shares of Common Stock.

            B. The provisions of Articles One and Five shall apply to all equity
programs under the Plan and shall govern the interests of all persons under the
Plan.

   III.     ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

            A. Prior to the Section 12 Registration Date, the Discretionary
Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs shall be administered by the Board.
Beginning with the Section 12 Registration Date, the Primary Committee shall
have sole and exclusive authority to administer the Discretionary Option Grant
and Stock Issuance Programs with respect to Section 16 Insiders.
<PAGE>

            B. Administration of the Discretionary Option Grant and Stock
Issuance Programs with respect to all other persons eligible to participate in
those programs may, at the Board's discretion, be vested in the Primary
Committee or a Secondary Committee, or the Board may retain the power to
administer those programs with respect to all such persons.

            C. Members of the Primary Committee or any Secondary Committee shall
serve for such period of time as the Board may determine and may be removed by
the Board at any time. The Board may also at any time terminate the functions of
any Secondary Committee and reassume all powers and authority previously
delegated to such committee.

            D. Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative functions under the Plan, have full power and authority (subject
to the provisions of the Plan) to establish such rules and regulations as it may
deem appropriate for proper administration of the Discretionary Option Grant and
Stock Issuance Programs and to make such determinations under, and issue such
interpretations of, the provisions of such programs and any outstanding options
or stock issuances thereunder as it may deem necessary or advisable. Decisions
of the Plan Administrator within the scope of its administrative functions under
the Plan shall be final and binding on all parties who have an interest in the
Discretionary Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs under its jurisdiction or
any option grants or stock issuance thereunder.

            E. Service on the Primary Committee or the Secondary Committee shall
constitute service as a Board member, and members of each such committee shall
accordingly be entitled to full indemnification and reimbursement as Board
members for their service on such committee. No member of the Primary Committee
or the Secondary Committee shall be liable for any act or omission made in good
faith with respect to the Plan or any option grants or stock issuances under the
Plan.

            F. Administration of the Automatic Option Grant Program shall be
self-executing in accordance with the terms of that program, and no Plan
Administrator shall exercise any discretionary functions with respect to any
option grants or stock issuances made under that program.

    IV.     ELIGIBILITY

            A. The persons eligible to participate in the Discretionary Option
Grant and Stock Issuance Programs are as follows:

                        (i) Employees,

                        (ii) non-employee members of the Board or the board of
      directors of any Parent or Subsidiary, and


                                     2.
<PAGE>

                        (iii) consultants and other independent advisors who
      provide services to the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).

            B. Each Plan Administrator shall, within the scope of its
administrative jurisdiction under the Plan, have full authority to determine,
(i) with respect to the option grants under the Discretionary Option Grant
Program, which eligible persons are to receive option grants, the time or times
when such option grants are to be made, the number of shares to be covered by
each such grant, the status of the granted option as either an Incentive Option
or a Non-Statutory Option, the time or times when each option is to become
exercisable, the vesting schedule (if any) applicable to the option shares and
the maximum term for which the option is to remain outstanding and (ii) with
respect to stock issuances under the Stock Issuance Program, which eligible
persons are to receive stock issuances, the time or times when such issuances
are to be made, the number of shares to be issued to each Participant, the
vesting schedule (if any) applicable to the issued shares and the consideration
for such shares.

            C. The Plan Administrator shall have the absolute discretion either
to grant options in accordance with the Discretionary Option Grant Program or to
effect stock issuances in accordance with the Stock Issuance Program.

            D. The individuals who shall be eligible to participate in the
Automatic Option Grant Program shall be limited to (i) those individuals serving
as non-employee Board members on the Underwriting Date, (ii) those individuals
who first become non-employee Board members after the Underwriting Date, whether
through appointment by the Board or election by the Corporation's stockholders,
and (iii) those individuals who continue to serve as non-employee Board members
at one or more Annual Stockholder Meetings held in calendar years following the
calendar year of the Underwriting Date. A non-employee Board member who has
previously been in the employ of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary)
shall not be eligible to receive an option grant under the Automatic Option
Grant Program at the time he or she first becomes a non-employee Board member,
but shall be eligible to receive periodic option grants under the Automatic
Option Grant Program while he or she continues to serve as a non-employee Board
member.

     V.     STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

            A. The stock issuable under the Plan shall be shares of authorized
but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the
Corporation on the open market. The maximum number of shares of Common Stock
initially reserved for issuance over the term of the Plan shall not exceed
6,000,000 shares. Such authorized share reserve is comprised of (i) the number
of shares which remain available for issuance, as of the Plan Effective Date,
under the Predecessor Plan as last approved by the Corporation's stockholders,


                                     3.
<PAGE>

including the shares subject to the outstanding options to be incorporated into
the Plan and the additional shares which would otherwise be available for future
grant, plus (ii) an additional increase of approximately 3.1 million shares
authorized by the Board but subject to stockholder approval prior to the Section
12 Registration Date.

            B. The number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under
the Plan shall automatically increase on the first trading day of each calendar
year during the term of the Plan, beginning with the 1999 calendar year, by an
amount equal to three percent (3%) of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on
the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar year. No Incentive
Options may be granted on the basis of the additional shares of Common Stock
resulting from such annual increases.

            C. No one person participating in the Plan may receive options and
direct stock issuances for more than 750,000 shares of Common Stock in the
aggregate per calendar year, beginning with the 1998 calendar year.

            D. Shares of Common Stock subject to outstanding options (including
options incorporated into this Plan from the Predecessor Plan) shall be
available for subsequent issuance under the Plan to the extent (i) those options
expire or terminate for any reason prior to exercise in full or (ii) the options
are cancelled in accordance with cancellation-regrant provisions of Article Two.
Unvested shares issued under the Plan and subsequently cancelled or repurchased
by the Corporation, at the original exercise or issue price paid per share,
pursuant to the Corporation's repurchase rights under the Plan shall be added
back to the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the
Plan and shall accordingly be available for reissuance through one or more
subsequent option grants or direct stock issuances under the Plan. However,
should the exercise price of an option under the Plan be paid with shares of
Common Stock or should shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable under the Plan
be withheld by the Corporation in satisfaction of the withholding taxes incurred
in connection with the exercise of an option or the vesting of a stock issuance
under the Plan, then the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance
under the Plan shall be reduced by the gross number of shares for which the
option is exercised or which vest under the stock issuance, and not by the net
number of shares of Common Stock issued to the holder of such option or stock
issuance.

            E. If any change is made to the Common Stock by reason of any stock
split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of
shares or other change affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without
the Corporation's receipt of consideration, appropriate adjustments shall be
made to (i) the maximum number and/or class of securities issuable under the
Plan, (ii) the number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be
granted stock options and direct stock issuances under this Plan per calendar
year, (iii) the number and/or class of securities for which grants are
subsequently to be made under the Automatic Option Grant Program to new and
continuing non-employee Board members, (iv) the number and/or class of
securities and the exercise price per share in effect under each outstanding
option under the Plan and (v) the number and/or class of securities and price
per share in effect


                                     4.
<PAGE>

under each outstanding option incorporated into this Plan from the Predecessor
Plan. Such adjustments to the outstanding options are to be effected in a manner
which shall preclude the enlargement or dilution of rights and benefits under
such options. The adjustments determined by the Plan Administrator shall be
final, binding and conclusive.

                                  ARTICLE TWO

                      DISCRETIONARY OPTION GRANT PROGRAM

     I.     OPTION TERMS

            Each option shall be evidenced by one or more documents in the form
approved by the Plan Administrator; provided, however, that each such document
shall comply with the terms specified below. Each document evidencing an
Incentive Option shall, in addition, be subject to the provisions of the Plan
applicable to such options.

            A.    Exercise Price.

                  1. The exercise price per share shall be fixed by the Plan
Administrator but shall not be less than eighty-five percent (85%) of the Fair
Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date.

                  2. The exercise price shall become immediately due upon
exercise of the option and shall, subject to the provisions of Section I of
Article Five and the documents evidencing the option, be payable in cash or
check made payable to the Corporation. Should the Common Stock be registered
under Section 12 of the 1934 Act at the time the option is exercised, then the
exercise price may also be paid as follows:

                        (i) in shares of Common Stock held for the requisite
      period necessary to avoid a charge to the Corporation's earnings for
      financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market Value on the
      Exercise Date, or

                        (ii) to the extent the option is exercised for vested
      shares, through a special sale and remittance procedure pursuant to which
      the Optionee shall concurrently provide irrevocable instructions (A) to a
      Corporation-designated brokerage firm to effect the immediate sale of the
      purchased shares and remit to the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds
      available on the settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate
      exercise price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable
      Federal, state and local income and employment taxes required to be
      withheld by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (B) to the
      Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares directly
      to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale.

            Except to the extent such sale and remittance procedure is utilized,
payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on the
Exercise Date.


                                     6.
<PAGE>

            B. Exercise and Term of Options. Each option shall be exercisable at
such time or times, during such period and for such number of shares as shall be
determined by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the documents evidencing
the option. However, no option shall have a term in excess of ten (10) years
measured from the option grant date.

            C.    Effect of Termination of Service.

                  1. The following provisions shall govern the exercise of any
options held by the Optionee at the time of cessation of Service or death:

                        (i) Any option outstanding at the time of the Optionee's
      cessation of Service for any reason shall remain exercisable for such
      period of time thereafter as shall be determined by the Plan Administrator
      and set forth in the documents evidencing the option, but no such option
      shall be exercisable after the expiration of the option term.

                        (ii) Any option exercisable in whole or in part by the
      Optionee at the time of death may be subsequently exercised by the
      personal representative of the Optionee's estate or by the person or
      persons to whom the option is transferred pursuant to the Optionee's will
      or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution.

                        (iii) Should the Optionee's Service be terminated for
      Misconduct, then all outstanding options held by the Optionee shall
      terminate immediately and cease to be outstanding.

                        (iv) During the applicable post-Service exercise period,
      the option may not be exercised in the aggregate for more than the number
      of vested shares for which the option is exercisable on the date of the
      Optionee's cessation of Service. Upon the expiration of the applicable
      exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the option term,
      the option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any vested
      shares for which the option has not been exercised. However, the option
      shall, immediately upon the Optionee's cessation of Service, terminate and
      cease to be outstanding to the extent the option is not otherwise at that
      time exercisable for vested shares.

                  2. The Plan Administrator shall have complete discretion,
exercisable either at the time an option is granted or at any time while the
option remains outstanding, to:


                                       7.
<PAGE>

                        (i) extend the period of time for which the option is to
      remain exercisable following the Optionee's cessation of Service from the
      limited exercise period otherwise in effect for that option to such
      greater period of time as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate,
      but in no event beyond the expiration of the option term, and/or

                        (ii) permit the option to be exercised, during the
      applicable post-Service exercise period, not only with respect to the
      number of vested shares of Common Stock for which such option is
      exercisable at the time of the Optionee's cessation of Service but also
      with respect to one or more additional installments in which the Optionee
      would have vested had the Optionee continued in Service.

            D. Stockholder Rights. The holder of an option shall have no
stockholder rights with respect to the shares subject to the option until such
person shall have exercised the option, paid the exercise price and become a
holder of record of the purchased shares.

            E. Repurchase Rights. The Plan Administrator shall have the
discretion to grant options which are exercisable for unvested shares of Common
Stock. Should the Optionee cease Service while holding such unvested shares, the
Corporation shall have the right to repurchase, at the exercise price paid per
share, any or all of those unvested shares. The terms upon which such repurchase
right shall be exercisable (including the period and procedure for exercise and
the appropriate vesting schedule for the purchased shares) shall be established
by the Plan Administrator and set forth in the document evidencing such
repurchase right. Prior to the Section 12 Registration Date, the Plan
Administrator may not impose a vesting schedule upon any option grant or the
shares of Common Stock subject to that option which is more restrictive than
twenty percent (20%) per year vesting, with the initial vesting to occur not
later than one (1) year after the option grant date. However, such limitation
shall not be applicable to any option grants made to individuals who are
officers of the Corporation, non-employee Board members or independent
consultants.

            F. Limited Transferability of Options. During the lifetime of the
Optionee, Incentive Options shall be exercisable only by the Optionee and shall
not be assignable or transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent
and distribution following the Optionee's death. However, a Non-Statutory Option
may, in connection with the Optionee's estate plan, be assigned in whole or in
part during the Optionee's lifetime to one or more members of the Optionee's
immediate family or to a trust established exclusively for one or more such
family members. The assigned portion may only be exercised by the person or
persons who acquire a proprietary interest in the option pursuant to the
assignment. The terms applicable to the assigned portion shall be the same as
those in effect for the option immediately prior to such assignment and shall be
set forth in such documents issued to the assignee as the Plan Administrator may
deem appropriate.


                                     8.
<PAGE>

    II.     INCENTIVE OPTIONS

            The terms specified below shall be applicable to all Incentive
Options. Except as modified by the provisions of this Section II, all the
provisions of Articles One, Two and Five shall be applicable to Incentive
Options. Options which are specifically designated as Non-Statutory Options when
issued under the Plan shall not be subject to the terms of this Section II.

            A. Eligibility. Incentive Options may only be granted to Employees.

            B. Exercise Price. The exercise price per share shall not be less
than the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option grant date.

            C. Dollar Limitation. The aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares
of Common Stock (determined as of the respective date or dates of grant) for
which one or more options granted to any Employee under the Plan (or any other
option plan of the Corporation or any Parent or Subsidiary) may for the first
time become exercisable as Incentive Options during any one calendar year shall
not exceed the sum of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). To the extent the
Employee holds two (2) or more such options which become exercisable for the
first time in the same calendar year, the foregoing limitation on the
exercisability of such options as Incentive Options shall be applied on the
basis of the order in which such options are granted.

            D. 10% Stockholder. If any Employee to whom an Incentive Option is
granted is a 10% Stockholder, then the exercise price per share shall not be
less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per share of
Common Stock on the option grant date, and the option term shall not exceed five
(5) years measured from the option grant date.

   III.     CHANGE IN CONTROL

            A. Each option outstanding at the time of a Change in Control but
not otherwise fully exercisable shall automatically accelerate so that each such
option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of the Change in Control,
become exercisable for all of the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to
that option and may be exercised for any or all of those shares as fully-vested
shares of Common Stock. However, an outstanding option shall not become
exercisable on such an accelerated if and to the extent: (i) such option is, in
connection with the Change in Control, to be assumed or otherwise continued in
full force or effect by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) pursuant
to the terms of the Change in Control transaction, (ii) such option is to be
replaced with a cash incentive program of the successor corporation which
preserves the spread existing at the time of the Corporate Transaction on the
shares of Common Stock for which the option is not otherwise at that time
exercisable and provides for subsequent payout in accordance with the same
vesting schedule applicable to those option shares or (iii) the acceleration of
such option is subject to other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator at
the time of the option grant.


                                     9.
<PAGE>

            B. All outstanding repurchase rights shall also terminate
automatically, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights
shall immediately vest in full, in the event of any Change in Control, except to
the extent: (i) those repurchase rights are to be assigned to the successor
corporation (or parent thereof) or (ii) such accelerated vesting is precluded by
other limitations imposed by the Plan Administrator at the time the repurchase
right is issued.

            C. Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control,
all outstanding options shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to
the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or otherwise
expressly continued in full force and effect pursuant to the terms of the Change
in Control transaction.

            D. Each option which is assumed (or is otherwise to continue in
effect) in connection with a Change in Control shall be appropriately adjusted,
immediately after such Change in Control, to apply to the number and class of
securities which would have been issuable to the Optionee in consummation of
such Change in Control had the option been exercised immediately prior to such
Change in Control. Appropriate adjustments to reflect such Change in Control
shall also be made to (i) the exercise price payable per share under each
outstanding option, provided the aggregate exercise price payable for such
securities shall remain the same, (ii) the maximum number and/or class of
securities available for issuance over the remaining term of the Plan and (iii)
the maximum number and/or class of securities for which any one person may be
granted stock options and direct stock issuances under the Plan per calendar
year.

            E. The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority
exercisable, either at the time the option is granted or at any time while the
option remains outstanding, to provide for the accelerated vesting, in whole or
in part, of one or more outstanding options under the Discretionary Option Grant
Program automatically upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, whether or not
those options are to be assumed or otherwise continued in full force and effect
pursuant to the express terms of the Change in Control transaction. In addition,
the Plan Administrator may structure one or more of the Corporation's repurchase
rights under the Discretionary Option Grant Program so that those rights shall
immediately terminate, in whole or in part, at the time of a Change in Control
and shall not be assignable to the successor corporation (or parent thereof),
and the shares subject to those terminated repurchase rights shall accordingly
vest in full at the time of such Change in Control.

            F. The Plan Administrator shall have full power and authority
exercisable, either at the time the option is granted or at any time while the
option remains outstanding, to provide for the accelerated vesting, in whole or
in part, of one or more outstanding options under the Discretionary Option Grant
Program upon the Involuntary Termination of the Optionee's Service within a
designated period (not to exceed twelve (12) months) following the effective
date of any Change in Control in which those options do not otherwise
accelerate. In addition, the Plan Administrator may structure one or more of the
Corporation's repurchase rights under


                                     10.
<PAGE>

the Discretionary Option Grant Program so that those rights will immediately
terminate at the time of such Involuntary Termination, and the shares subject to
those terminated repurchase rights shall accordingly vest in full at that time.

            G. The portion of any Incentive Option accelerated in connection
with a Change in Control shall remain exercisable as an Incentive Option only to
the extent the applicable One Hundred Thousand Dollar limitation is not
exceeded. To the extent such dollar limitation is exceeded, the accelerated
portion of such option shall be exercisable as a Non-Statutory Option under the
Federal tax laws.

            H. The outstanding options shall in no way affect the right of the
Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its capital or
business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or
transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

    IV.     CANCELLATION AND REGRANT OF OPTIONS

            The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to effect, at any
time and from time to time, with the consent of the affected option holders, the
cancellation of any or all outstanding options under the Discretionary Option
Grant Program (including outstanding options incorporated from the Predecessor
Plan) and to grant in substitution new options covering the same or different
number of shares of Common Stock but with an exercise price per share based on
the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the new grant date.

                            STOCK ISSUANCE PROGRAM

     V.     STOCK ISSUANCE TERMS

            Shares of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock Issuance
Program through direct and immediate issuances without any intervening option
grants. Each such stock issuance shall be evidenced by a Stock Issuance
Agreement which complies with the terms specified below. Shares of Common Stock
may also be issued under the Stock Issuance Program pursuant to share right
awards which entitle the recipients to receive those shares upon the attainment
of designated performance goals.

            A.    Purchase Price.

                  1. The purchase price per share of Common Stock subject to
direct issuance shall be fixed by the Plan Administrator, but shall not be less
than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common
Stock on the issuance date.

                  2. Shares of Common Stock may be issued under the Stock
Issuance Program for any of the following items of consideration which the Plan
Administrator may deem appropriate in each individual instance:

                        (i) cash or check made payable to the Corporation, or

                        (ii) past services rendered to the Corporation (or any
      Parent or Subsidiary).

            B. Vesting/Issuance Provisions.

                  1. The Plan Administrator may issue shares of Common Stock
under the Stock Issuance Program which are fully and immediately vested upon
issuance or which are to vest in one or more installments over the Participant's
period of Service or upon attainment of specified performance objectives.
Alternatively, the Plan Administrator may issue share right awards under the
Stock Issuance Program which shall entitle the recipient to receive a specified
number of shares of Common Stock upon the attainment of one or more performance
goals established by the Plan Administrator. Upon the attainment of such
performance goals, fully-vested shares of Common Stock shall be issued in
satisfaction of those share right awards. However, prior to the Section 12
Registration Date, the Plan Administrator may not impose a vesting schedule upon
any stock issuance or share rights award effected under the Stock Issuance
Program which is more restrictive than twenty percent (20%) per year vesting,
with initial vesting to occur not later than one (1) year after the issuance
date. Such limitation shall not apply to any


                                     12.
<PAGE>

Common Stock issuances made to the officers of the Corporation, non-employee
Board members or independent consultants.

                  2. Any new, substituted or additional securities or other
property (including money paid other than as a regular cash dividend) which the
Participant may have the right to receive with respect to his or her unvested
shares of Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend, stock split,
recapitalization, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change
affecting the outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation's
receipt of consideration shall be issued subject to (i) the same vesting
requirements applicable to the Participant's unvested shares of Common Stock and
(ii) such escrow arrangements as the Plan Administrator shall deem appropriate.

                  3. The Participant shall have full stockholder rights with
respect to any shares of Common Stock issued to the Participant under the Stock
Issuance Program, whether or not the Participant's interest in those shares is
vested. Accordingly, the Participant shall have the right to vote such shares
and to receive any regular cash dividends paid on such shares.

                  4. Should the Participant cease to remain in Service while
holding one or more unvested shares of Common Stock issued under the Stock
Issuance Program or should the performance objectives not be attained with
respect to one or more such unvested shares of Common Stock, then those shares
shall be immediately surrendered to the Corporation for cancellation, and the
Participant shall have no further stockholder rights with respect to those
shares. To the extent the surrendered shares were previously issued to the
Participant for consideration paid in cash or cash equivalent (including the
Participant's purchase-money indebtedness), the Corporation shall repay to the
Participant the cash consideration paid for the surrendered shares and shall
cancel the unpaid principal balance of any outstanding purchase-money note of
the Participant attributable to the surrendered shares.

                  5. The Plan Administrator may in its discretion waive the
surrender and cancellation of one or more unvested shares of Common Stock (or
other assets attributable thereto) which would otherwise occur upon the
cessation of the Participant's Service or the non-attainment of the performance
objectives applicable to those shares. Such waiver shall result in the immediate
vesting of the Participant's interest in the shares of Common Stock as to which
the waiver applies. Such waiver may be effected at any time, whether before or
after the Participant's cessation of Service or the attainment or non-attainment
of the applicable performance objectives.

                  6. Outstanding share right awards under the Stock Issuance
Program shall automatically terminate, and no shares of Common Stock shall
actually be issued in satisfaction of those awards, if the performance goals
established for such awards are not attained. The Plan Administrator, however,
shall have the discretionary authority to issue shares of Common Stock in
satisfaction of one or more outstanding share right awards as to which the
designated performance goals are not attained.


                                     13.
<PAGE>

    VI.     CHANGE IN CONTROL

            A. All of the Corporation's outstanding repurchase rights under the
Stock Issuance Program shall terminate automatically, and all the shares of
Common Stock subject to those terminated rights shall immediately vest in full,
in the event of any Change in Control, except to the extent (i) those repurchase
rights are to be assigned to the successor corporation (or parent thereof) or
are otherwise to continue in full force and effect pursuant to the express terms
of the Change in Control transaction or (ii) such accelerated vesting is
precluded by other limitations imposed in the Stock Issuance Agreement.

            B. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority,
exercisable either at the time the unvested shares are issued or any time while
the Corporation's repurchase rights remain outstanding under the Stock Issuance
Program, to provide that those rights shall automatically terminate in whole or
in part upon the occurrence of a Change in Control and shall not be assignable
to the successor corporation (or parent thereof), and the shares of Common Stock
subject to those terminated rights shall immediately vest at the time of such
Change in Control.

            C. The Plan Administrator shall have the discretionary authority,
exercisable either at the time the unvested shares are issued or any time while
the Corporation's repurchase rights remain outstanding under the Stock Issuance
Program, to provide that those rights shall automatically terminate in whole or
in part, and the shares of Common Stock subject to those terminated rights shall
immediately vest upon the Involuntary Termination of the Participant's Service
within a designated period (not to exceed twelve (12) months) following the
effective date of any Change in Control in which those repurchase rights are
assigned to the successor corporation (or parent thereof),

   VII.     SHARE ESCROW/LEGENDS

            Unvested shares may, in the Plan Administrator's discretion, be held
in escrow by the Corporation until the Participant's interest in such shares
vests or may be issued directly to the Participant with restrictive legends on
the certificates evidencing those unvested shares.

                        AUTOMATIC OPTION GRANT PROGRAM

     I.     OPTION TERMS

            A. Grant Dates. Option grants shall be made on the dates specified
below:

                  1. Each individual serving as a non-employee Board member on
the Underwriting Date shall automatically be granted at that time a
Non-Statutory Option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock.

                  2. Each individual who is first elected or appointed as a
non-employee Board member at any time after the Underwriting Date shall
automatically be granted, on the date of such initial election or appointment, a
Non-Statutory Option to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock, provided that
individual has not previously been in the employ of the Corporation or any
Parent or Subsidiary.

                  3. On the date of each Annual Stockholders Meeting, beginning
with the Annual Meeting held in the first calendar year after the calendar year
of the Underwriting Date, each individual who is to continue to serve as an
Eligible Director, whether or not that individual is standing for re-election to
the Board at that particular Annual Meeting, shall automatically be granted a
Non-Statutory Option to purchase 10,000 shares of Common Stock, provided such
individual has served as a non-employee Board member for at least six (6)
months. There shall be no limit on the number of such 10,000-share option grants
any one Eligible Director may receive over his or her period of Board service,
and non-employee Board members who have previously been in the employ of the
Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary) shall be eligible to receive one or
more such annual option grants over their period of continued Board service.

            B.    Exercise Price.

                  1. The exercise price per share shall be equal to one hundred
percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock on the option
grant date.

                  2. The exercise price shall be payable in one or more of the
alternative forms authorized under the Discretionary Option Grant Program.
Except to the extent the sale and remittance procedure specified thereunder is
utilized, payment of the exercise price for the purchased shares must be made on
the Exercise Date.

            C. Option Term. Each option shall have a term of ten (10) years
measured from the option grant date.

<PAGE>

            D. Exercise and Vesting of Options. Each option shall be immediately
exercisable for any or all of the option shares. However, any shares purchased
under the option shall be subject to repurchase by the Corporation, at the
exercise price paid per share, upon the Optionee's cessation of Board service
prior to vesting in those shares. Each initial 50,000-share grant shall vest,
and the Corporation's repurchase right shall lapse, in a series of four (4)
successive equal annual installments upon the Optionee's completion of each year
of Board service over the four (4)-year period measured from the option grant
date. Each annual 10,000- share grant shall vest, and the Corporation's
repurchase right shall lapse, upon the Optionee's completion of one (1) year of
Board service measured from the automatic grant date.

            E. Termination of Board Service. The following provisions shall
govern the exercise of any options held by the Optionee at the time the Optionee
ceases to serve as a Board member:

                        (i) The period of exercising the option shall be limited
      to a twelve (12)-month period measured from the date of the Optionee's
      cessation of Board service.

                        (ii) During the twelve (12)-month exercise period, the
      option may not be exercised in the aggregate for more than the number of
      shares of Common Stock in which the Optionee is vested at time of his or
      her cessation of Board service.

                        (iii) Should the Optionee cease to serve as a Board
      member by reason of death or Permanent Disability, then all shares at the
      time subject to the option shall immediately vest so that such option may,
      during the twelve (12)-month exercise period following such cessation of
      Board service, be exercised for all or any portion of those shares as
      fully-vested shares of Common Stock.

                        (iv) In no event shall the option remain exercisable
      after the expiration of the option term.

                        (v) Upon the expiration of the twelve (12)-month
      exercise period or (if earlier) upon the expiration of the option term,
      the option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any vested
      shares for which the option has not been exercised. However, the option
      shall, immediately upon the Optionee's cessation of Board service for any
      reason other than death or Permanent Disability, terminate and cease to be
      outstanding for any and all option shares in which the Optionee is not
      otherwise at that time vested.


                                     16.
<PAGE>

    II.     CHANGE IN CONTROL

            A. The shares of Common Stock at the time subject to each option
outstanding at the time of a Change in Control but not otherwise vested shall
automatically vest in full so that each such option shall, immediately prior to
the effective date of the Change in Control, become fully exercisable for all of
the shares of Common Stock at the time subject to such option and may be
exercised for all or any portion of those shares as fully-vested shares of
Common Stock. Immediately following the consummation of the Change in Control,
each automatic option grant shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except
to the extent assumed by the successor corporation (or parent thereof).

            B. Each option which is assumed in connection with a Change in
Control shall be appropriately adjusted, immediately after such Change in
Control, to apply to the number and class of securities which would have been
issuable to the Optionee in consummation of such Change in Control had the
option been exercised immediately prior to such Change in Control. Appropriate
adjustments shall also be made to the exercise price payable per share under
each outstanding option, provided the aggregate exercise price payable for such
securities shall remain the same.

            C. The grant of options under the Automatic Option Grant Program
shall in no way affect the right of the Corporation to adjust, reclassify,
reorganize or otherwise change its capital or business structure or to merge,
consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or sell or transfer all or any part of its
business or assets.

   III.     REMAINING TERMS

            The remaining terms of each option granted under the Automatic
Option Grant Program shall be the same as the terms in effect for option grants
made under the Discretionary Option Grant Program.

                                 MISCELLANEOUS

     I.     FINANCING

            The Plan Administrator may permit any Optionee or Participant to pay
the option exercise price under the Discretionary Option Grant Program or the
purchase price of shares issued under the Stock Issuance Program by delivering a
full-recourse, interest bearing promissory note payable in one or more
installments. The terms of any such promissory note (including the interest rate
and the terms of repayment) shall be established by the Plan Administrator in
its sole discretion. In no event may the maximum credit available to the
Optionee or Participant exceed the sum of (i) the aggregate option exercise
price or purchase price payable for the purchased shares (less the par value of
those shares) plus (ii) any Federal, state and local income and employment tax
liability incurred by the Optionee or the Participant in connection with the
option exercise or share purchase.

    II.     TAX WITHHOLDING

            A. The Corporation's obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock
upon the exercise of options or the issuance or vesting of such shares under the
Plan shall be subject to the satisfaction of all applicable Federal, state and
local income and employment tax withholding requirements.

            B. The Plan Administrator may, in its discretion, provide any or all
holders of Non-Statutory Options or unvested shares of Common Stock under the
Plan with the right to use shares of Common Stock in satisfaction of all or part
of the Taxes incurred by such holders in connection with the exercise of their
options or the vesting of their shares. Such right may be provided to any such
holder in either or both of the following formats:

                  Stock Withholding: The election to have the Corporation
withhold, from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon the exercise
of such Non-Statutory Option or the vesting of such shares, a portion of those
shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Taxes
(not to exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder.

                  Stock Delivery: The election to deliver to the Corporation, at
the time the Non-Statutory Option is exercised or the shares vest, one or more
shares of Common Stock previously acquired by such holder (other than in
connection with the option exercise or share vesting triggering the Taxes) with
an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the percentage of the Taxes (not to
exceed one hundred percent (100%)) designated by the holder.


                                     18.

   III.     EFFECTIVE DATE AND TERM OF THE PLAN

            A. The Discretionary Option Grant and Stock Issuance Programs shall
become effective immediately upon the Plan Effective Date. However, the
Automatic Option Grant Program shall not become effective until the Underwriting
Date. Options may be granted under the Discretionary Option Grant Program at any
time on or after the Plan Effective Date. However, no options granted under the
Plan may be exercised, and no shares shall be issued under the Plan, until the
Plan is approved by the Corporation's stockholders. If such stockholder approval
is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the Plan Effective Date, then
all options previously granted under this Plan shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding, and no further options shall be granted and no shares shall be
issued under the Plan.

            B. The Plan shall serve as the successor to the Predecessor Plan,
and no further option grants or direct stock issuances shall be made under the
Predecessor Plan after the Plan Effective Date. All options outstanding under
the Predecessor Plan on the Plan Effective Date shall be incorporated into the
Plan at that time and shall be treated as outstanding options under the Plan.
However, each outstanding option so incorporated shall continue to be governed
solely by the terms of the documents evidencing such option, and no provision of
the Plan shall be deemed to affect or otherwise modify the rights or obligations
of the holders of such incorporated options with respect to their acquisition of
shares of Common Stock.

            C. One or more provisions of the Plan, including (without
limitation) the option/vesting acceleration provisions of Article Two relating
to Changes in Control, may, in the Plan Administrator's discretion, be extended
to one or more options incorporated from the Predecessor Plan which do not
otherwise contain such provisions.

            D. The Plan shall terminate upon the earliest of (i) November 6,
2007, (ii) the date on which all shares available for issuance under the Plan
shall have been issued as fully-vested shares or (iii) the termination of all
outstanding options in connection with a Change in Control. Upon such plan
termination, all outstanding option grants and unvested stock issuances shall
thereafter continue to have force and effect in accordance with the provisions
of the documents evidencing such grants or issuances.

    IV.     AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN

            A. The Board shall have complete and exclusive power and authority
to amend or modify the Plan in any or all respects. However, no such amendment
or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations with respect
to stock options or unvested stock issuances at the time outstanding under the
Plan unless the Optionee or the Participant consents to such amendment or
modification. In addition, certain amendments may require stockholder approval
pursuant to applicable laws or regulations.


                                     19.
<PAGE>

            B. Options to purchase shares of Common Stock may be granted under
the Discretionary Option Grant Program and shares of Common Stock may be issued
under the Stock Issuance Program that are in each instance in excess of the
number of shares then available for issuance under the Plan, provided any excess
shares actually issued under those programs shall be held in escrow until there
is obtained stockholder approval of an amendment sufficiently increasing the
number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan. If such
stockholder approval is not obtained within twelve (12) months after the date
the first such excess issuances are made, then (i) any unexercised options
granted on the basis of such excess shares shall terminate and cease to be
outstanding and (ii) the Corporation shall promptly refund to the Optionees and
the Participants the exercise or purchase price paid for any excess shares
issued under the Plan and held in escrow, together with interest (at the
applicable Short Term Federal Rate) for the period the shares were held in
escrow, and such shares shall thereupon be automatically cancelled and cease to
be outstanding.

     V.     USE OF PROCEEDS

            Any cash proceeds received by the Corporation from the sale of
shares of Common Stock under the Plan shall be used for general corporate
purposes.

    VI.     REGULATORY APPROVALS

            A. The implementation of the Plan, the granting of any stock option
under the Plan and the issuance of any shares of Common Stock (i) upon the
exercise of any granted option or (ii) under the Stock Issuance Program shall be
subject to the Corporation's procurement of all approvals and permits required
by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the Plan, the stock options
granted under it and the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to it.

            B. No shares of Common Stock or other assets shall be issued or
delivered under the Plan unless and until there shall have been compliance with
all applicable requirements of Federal and state securities laws, including the
filing and effectiveness of the Form S-8 registration statement for the shares
of Common Stock issuable under the Plan, and all applicable listing requirements
of any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq National Market, if applicable) on which
Common Stock is then listed for trading.

   VII.     NO EMPLOYMENT/SERVICE RIGHTS

            Nothing in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee or the
Participant any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration
or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Corporation
(or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining such person) or of the
Optionee or the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each,
to terminate such person's Service at any time for any reason, with or without
cause.

where necessary, to recommend action by the Stockholders of the Company in

the following items shall be added to the list of activities set forth in the
preceding sentence and as to which the Company, the directors of the Company and

         A hereto shall not be a factor in the determination of whether such
         termination of employment is termination of employment without cause
         or termination of employment with cause and that such determination
         shall be made solely by reference to the definition of "Cause" set

appropriate modifications to the projections for 1997 and 1998 set forth in
Exhibit A and Exhibit B hereto, and such modified projections, upon their
approval by the Preferred Directors (which approval shall not be unreasonably
withheld), shall be the new Exhibit A and Exhibit B for purposes of this
Agreement and the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation, respectively.

    3.10.QUALIFIED OFFERINGS.  The Investors hereby agree to consider in good
faith any request by the Company to issue Common Stock notwithstanding the fact
that the proposed 


                                         -11-

5, the term "Fair Market Value" shall mean, as of any date, the fair value of

applicable thereto), as determined by the Board; (b) at any time when more than
15 % of the Shares then outstanding has been offered and sold pursuant to one or
more Public Offerings, the Fair Market Value of any Share shall be equal to the
average of the sum of the closing prices of the Shares for the 30 trading days

relevant, the purchase price of the Shares in recent (i) arms-length sales of
Shares by the Company, (ii) transfers of Shares by a Stockholder in an
arms-length transaction and (b) not give effect to any discount which may
otherwise be attributable to the fact that such Shares which are the subject of

Investor Seller to permit a Participating Seller to receive such securities may
be conditioned on such Participating Seller executing such documents and
instruments, and taking such other actions (including without limitation, if
required by the 


                                         -21-

Proposed Investor Seller), as the Proposed Investor Seller shall reasonably
request in order to permit such legal requirements to have been complied with.

whom the Shares held by such Participating Seller (or Options to purchase such
Shares) were originally issued, shall take or cause to be taken all such actions

Stockholders generally and to be liable in respect of any individual
representations, warranties, agreements and indemnities to be given by selling
Stockholders in the Sale.

         (b)  An offer by the Proposed Seller to include, at the option of each

    and the Proposed Seller and the Participating Sellers shall thereafter be
    free to Sell to the Proposed Buyer, at a price no greater than 105% of the
    price set forth in the Tag Along Notice and otherwise on terms not more

    bound and obligated to Sell in the Sale, on the same terms and conditions
    specified in the Tag Along Notice with respect to each of the Shares to be
    sold (including Underlying Shares), and on the same terms and conditions as
    apply to each of the Shares sold by the Proposed Seller, such number of
    Shares (including any Underlying Shares) as such Participating Seller shall
    have specified in such Participating Seller's written commitment. In the
    event the Proposed Seller shall be unable (otherwise than by reason of the
    circumstances described in Section 7.2) to obtain the inclusion in the Sale
    of all Shares (including Underlying Shares) which the Proposed Seller and
    each Participating Seller desires to have included in the Sale (as
    evidenced in the case of the Proposed Seller by the Tag Along Notice and 


                                         -23-
<PAGE>

    in the case of each Participating Seller by such Participating Seller's
    written commitment), the number of Shares (including Underlying Shares) to
    be sold in the Sale by the Proposed Seller and each Participating Seller
    shall be reduced on a pro rata basis according to the proportion which the
    number of Shares (including Underlying Shares) which each such Seller
    desires to have included in the Sale bears to the total number of Shares
    desired (including Underlying Shares) by all such Sellers to have included
    in the Sale.

    Offeree,  to comply in any material respect with the terms of this Section

              required to register in any jurisdictions which require it, in
              connection therewith or as a condition thereto, to qualify to do
              business or to file a general consent to service of process or to
              subject itself to taxation in any such states or jurisdiction.

              underwriters. Each Holder participating in such underwriting
              shall also enter into and perform its obligations under such
              Underwriting Agreement, including furnishing any opinion of
              counsel or entering into a lock-up and indemnification agreement
              reasonably requested by the managing underwriter.

              registration statement, at any time when a prospectus relating
              thereto covered by such registration statement is required to be
              delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event
              as a result of which the prospectus included in such registration
              statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a
              material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be
              stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
              misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing and
              promptly file such amendments and supplements which may be
              required pursuant to subparagraph (b) of this Section 9.3 on
              account of such event and use its reasonable efforts to cause
              each such amendment and supplement to become effective.

         (f)  Furnish, at the request of any Holder requesting registration of
              Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 9, on the date
              that such Registrable Securities are delivered to the
              underwriters for sale in connection with a registration pursuant
              to this Section 9, if such securities are being sold through
              underwriters, or, if such securities are not being sold through

    11.4.     INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.

         11.4.1.   INDEMNITIES OF THE COMPANY. In the event of any registration
    of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to this
    Section 9, and in connection with any registration statement or any other
    disclosure document produced by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to
    which securities of the Company are sold (whether or not for the account of
    the Company), the Company will, and hereby does, indemnify and hold
    harmless each seller of Registrable Securities, any other holder of
    securities who is or might be deemed to be a controlling Person of the
    Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, their
    respective direct and indirect partners, advisory board members, directors,
    officers and stockholders, and each other Person, if any, who controls any
    such seller or any such holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the
    Securities Act (each such person being referred to herein as a "COVERED
    PERSON") against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
    several, and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
    legal and other fees and expenses incurred by any Covered Person in
    defending or investigating any action or claim in respect-thereof) to which
    such Covered Person may be or become subject under the Securities Act, any
    other securities or other law of any jurisdiction, common law or otherwise,
    insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or
    proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any
    untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained
    or incorporated by reference in any registration statement under the
    Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus included
    therein, or any related summary prospectus, or any amendment or supplement
    thereto, or any document incorporated by reference therein, or any other

    with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability,
    action or proceeding; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
    liable to any Covered Person in any such case to the extent that any such
    loss, claim, damage, liability, action or proceeding arises out of or is
    based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
    alleged omission made in such registration statement, any such preliminary
    prospectus, final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement,
    incorporated document or other such disclosure document in reliance upon
    and in conformity with information furnished to the Company by such Covered
    Person. The indemnities of the Company-and of its subsidiaries contained in

    any transfer of securities.


                                         -30-
<PAGE>

         11.4.2.   INDEMNITIES TO THE COMPANY. The Company may require, as a
    condition to including any. securities in any registration statement filed
    pursuant to this Section 9, that the Company shall have received an
    undertaking satisfactory to it from each prospective seller of such
    securities, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each director of
    the Company, each officer of the Company who shall sign such registration
    statement and each other Person (other than such seller), if any, who
    controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
    Act, with respect to any statement in or omission from such registration
    statement, any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus included therein,
    or any amendment or supplement thereto; or any document incorporated
    therein, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in
    conformity with written information furnished to the Company through an
    instrument executed by such seller specifically stating that it is for use
    in the preparation of such registration statement, preliminary prospectus,
    final prospectus, summary prospectus, amendment or supplement, or
    incorporated document. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect
    regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or any
    such director, officer or controlling Person and shall survive any transfer
    of securities.

         11.4.3.   THIRD PARTY CLAIMS.  Each party entitled to indemnification
    under this Agreement (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall give notice to the
    party required to provide indemnification (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY")
    promptly after such Indemnified Party has actual knowledge of any claim as
    to which indemnity may be sought, and shall permit the Indemnifying Party
    to assume the defense of any such claim or any litigation resulting
    therefrom; PROVIDED, that counsel for the Indemnifying Party, who shall
    conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be approved by the
    Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not be unreasonably withheld); and,
    PROVIDED, FURTHER, that the failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice
    as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
    obligations under this Section 9. The Indemnified Party may participate in
    such defense at such party's expense; provided, however, that the
    Indemnifying Party shall pay such expense if representation of such
    Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would
    be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the
    Indemnified. Party and any other party represented by such counsel-in such
    proceeding. The Indemnifying Party, in the defense of any such claim or
    litigation shall, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, shall
    not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which
    does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the
    claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all
    liability in respect of such claim or litigation, and no Indemnified party
    shall consent to entry of any judgment or settle such claim or litigation
    without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party.

         11.4.4.   CONTRIBUTION. If the indemnity provided for in Sections
    9.4.1 or 9.4.2 is available, each indemnified party will be indemnified
    thereunder to the full extent provided in such section without regard to
    the relative fault of the indemnifying 



                                         -31-
<PAGE>

    party or the indemnified party or the other equitable considerations
    referenced   in this , Section 9.4.4. If the indemnification provided for
    in Sections 9.4.1 or 9.4.2 hereof is unavailable to a party that would have
    been an indemnified party under any such Section in respect of any losses,
    claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect
    thereof) referred to therein, then each party that would have been an
    indemnifying party thereunder shall, in lieu of indemnifying such
    indemnified party, contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
    indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or
    liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) in such
    proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such
    indemnifying party on the one hand and such indemnified party on the other
    in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such
    losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in
    respect thereof). The relative fault shall be determined by reference to,
    among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a
    material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
    relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or such
    indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
    information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
    omission. The parties agree that it would not be just or equitable if
    contribution pursuant to this Section 9.4.4 were determined by pro rata
    allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account
    of the equitable considerations referred to in the preceding sentence. The
    amount paid or payable by a contributing party as a result of the losses,
    claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect
    thereof) referred to above in this Section 9.4.4 shall include any legal or
    other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection
    with investigating or defending any such action or claim. No Person guilty
    of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
    Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was
    not gully of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

         11.4.5.   LIMITATION ON LIABILITY OF HOLDERS OF REGISTRABLE
    SECURITIES. The liability of each holder of Registrable Securities in
    respect of any indemnification or contribution obligation of such holder
    arising under this Section 9.4 shall not in any event exceed an amount
    equal to the net proceeds to such holder from the disposition of the
    Registrable Securities disposed of by such holder pursuant to such
    registration.

    11.5.     SELECTION OF UNDERWRITER. Any and all underwriters to be engaged
in connection with any public offering of Shares pursuant to a registration
effected pursuant to Section 9.2 shall be selected by the Board and shall be
reasonably acceptable to the Investors.

    11.7.     LIMITATIONS ON OTHER REGISTRATION RIGHTS. From and after the date
of this Agreement, the Company shall not, without the prior written consent of
the holders of a majority of the Investor Shares then outstanding, enter into
any agreement with any holder or prospective holder of any securities of the
Company relating to registration rights unless such agreement includes to the
extent the agreement would allow such holder or prospective holder to include
such securities in any registration filed under Section 9.1 or 9.2 hereof, a
provision that such holder or prospective holder may include such securities in
any such registration only to the extent that the inclusion of its securities
will not reduce the amount of the Registrable Securities, and the amount of the
Registrable Investor Securities of the Holders and the Investors which would
otherwise be included and does otherwise not diminish the rights provided in
this Section 9 above.  In the event of any conflict between this Section 9 and
any agreement to which the Company or its subsidiaries is a party or by which
any of them are bound, the provisions of this Section 9 shall govern.

    11.8.     AVAILABILITY OF INFORMATION. If the Company shall have filed a
registration statement pursuant to the requirements of Section 12 of the
Exchange Act or a registration statement pursuant to the requirements of the
Securities Act, the Company shall comply with the reporting requirements of
Sections 13 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act and shall comply with all other public
information reporting requirements of the Commission (including Rule 144
promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act) from time to time in
effect and relating to the availability of an exemption from the Securities Act
for the sale of any Shares. The Company shall also cooperate with each holder of
any Shares in supplying such information as may be necessary for such holder to
complete and file any information reporting forms presently or hereafter
required by the Commission as a condition to the availability of an exemption
from the Securities Act for the sale of any Shares.

12. REMEDIES.

    12.1.     GENERALLY. The Company, the holders of Investor Shares, the
holders of the Management Shares, the holders of Group B Shares and all other
Stockholders shall have all remedies available at law, in equity or otherwise in
the event of any breach or violation of this Agreement or any default hereunder
by the Company or any holder of Shares, Warrants or Options. The parties
acknowledge and agree that in the event of any breach of this Agreement, in
addition to any other remedies which may be available, each of the parties
hereto shall be entitled to specific performance of the obligations of the other
parties hereto and, in addition, to such other equitable remedies (including,
without limitation, preliminary or temporary relief) as may be appropriate in
the circumstances.

    12.2.     DEPOSIT. Without limiting the generality of Section 10.1 and to
the extent permitted by Delaware General Corporate Law, if any Stockholder (a
"NON-COMPLYING STOCKHOLDER") fails to deliver any certificate or certificates
evidencing Shares or Options that may be required to be sold pursuant to any
provision of this Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof, the Company or
other Person entitled to purchase such securities may, at its option, in 


                                         -33-
<PAGE>

addition to all other remedies it may have, deposit the purchase price for such
Shares with any national bank or trust company having combined capital, surplus
and undivided profits in excess of one hundred million dollars (100,000,000)
and which has agreed to act as escrow agent in the manner contemplated by this
Section 10.2 and shall furnish or make available to all interested Persons
satisfactory evidence of such deposit and thereupon the Company shall cancel on
its books the certificate or certificates representing such securities and, in
the case of any such purchase of securities by a Person other than the Company
issue, in lieu thereof and in the name of such Person, a new certificate or
certificates representing such securities, and thereupon all of the
Non-Complying Stockholder's rights in and to such securities shall terminate.
Thereafter, upon delivery to the Company by such Non-Complying Stockholder the
certificate or certificates evidencing such securities (duly endorsed, or with
stock powers or other appropriate instruments of transfer duly endorsed, for
transfer, with signature guaranteed, free and clear of any liens or
encumbrances, and with any stock transfer tax stamps affixed), the Company shall
instruct the escrow agent referred to above to deliver the purchase price
(without any interest from the date of the closing to the date of such delivery,
any such interest to accrue to the Person who deposited the purchase price for
such securities) to such Non-Complying Stockholder.

13. LEGENDS. Each certificate representing Shares shall have the following
legend endorsed conspicuously thereupon:

         "THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ISSUED IN A
    PRIVATE PLACEMENT, WITHOUT REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,

    TRANSFERRED IN THE ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT
    COVERING THE TRANSFER OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER,

    RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND REQUIREMENTS OF SALE AND VOTING SET FORTH IN
    THE STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT DATED AS OF JUNE 4, 1997, AS AMENDED AND IN
    EFFECT FROM TIME TO TIME. THE COMPANY WILL FURNISH A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT
    TO THE HOLDER OF THIS CERTIFICATE WITHOUT CHARGE UPON WRITTEN REQUEST."

    Each certificate representing Management Shares shall have the following

    Each certificate representing Group B Shares shall have the following

<PAGE>

         "THE SHARES OF STOCK REPRESENTED BY, THIS CERTIFICATE WERE ORIGINALLY
    ISSUED TO, OR ISSUED WITH RESPECT TO SHARES ORIGINALLY ISSUED TO THE

    Any person who acquires Shares which are not subject to all or part of the
terms of this Agreement shall have the right to have such legends (or the
applicable portion thereof) removed from certificates representing such Shares.
The Company shall have the right to waive any requirement of delivery of a legal
opinion with respect to exemption from registration requirements under the

extended or terminated, and the provisions hereof may be waived, by an agreement
in writing signed by holders of a majority of all Shares then outstanding and
subject to this Agreement; and each such amendment, modification, extension,
termination and waiver shall be binding upon each party hereto and each holder
of Shares subject hereto; provided, however, that no such amendment,
modification, extension, termination or waiver which amends, modifies, extends,
terminates or waives any of the provisions of Sections 5, 6, 7, 9 or 12 hereof
will be effective with respect to those holders of Shares other than the
Investors unless and until the consent of the a majority of the holders of such
Shares has been obtained. In addition, each party hereto and each holder of
Shares subject hereto may waive any of its rights hereunder by an instrument in
writing signed by such party or holder.

    14.3.     AUTOMATIC PARTIAL TERMINATION.  The provisions of Sections 3, 4,
5, 6 and 7 of this Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force or
effect upon the closing of a Qualified Public Offering; provided, however, that
no such termination shall relieve any Person of liability for any breach of such
sections prior to such termination.

Gentlemen:

         In accordance with your request, Owner hereby grants to Tenant
permission to sublet to DOUBLECLICK, INC., a Delaware corporation, having an
office at 41 Madison Avenue, New York, New York (referred to herein as
"Subtenant") the Demised Premises (said space is referred to herein as the

commencing on the execution and delivery of this agreement and expiring on

Lease with the same escalation provisions as are contained in the Lease, which
subletting, however, shall be subject to the following terms and conditions
which shall be deemed controlling over any contrary terms and conditions
contained in the Lease or in the sublease evidencing such subletting (referred
to herein as the "Sublease"):

                   (1)  Neither this agreement, nor the Sublease, nor any
acceptance of rent by Owner from Subtenant, shall operate to waive, modify,
release or in any manner affect Tenant's liability under the Lease. No other or
further sublease of all or of any part of the Premises shall be made by Tenant
without the prior written approval of Owner.


                                          1
<PAGE>

                   (2)  Subtenant Will use and occupy the Sublet Space for
Subtenant's executive and general offices and for no other use or purpose
whatsoever. Subtenant shall not use or occupy or permit the use or occupancy of
the Sublet Space or any part thereof for any purpose other than the purpose
specifically set forth above, or in any manner which, in Owner's reasonable
judgment, shall adversely affect or interfere with any services required to be
furnished by Owner to Tenant or to any other tenant or occupant of the Building
or with the proper and economical rendition of any such service, or with the use
or enjoyment of any part of the Building by any other tenant or occupant.

                   (3)  If, at any time prior to the expiration of the term of
the Sublease, the term of the Lease shall terminate or be terminated for any
reason including, but not limited to, termination by operation of the Articles
9, 10, 16 or 17 of the Lease or any other provisions of the Lease or by
operation of law, the Sublease and the term thereby granted shall terminate,
and, on or prior to the date of such termination of the Sublease, Subtenant, at
Subtenant's sole cost and expense, (i) shall quit and surrender the Sublet Space
to Owner, broom clean and in good order and condition, ordinary wear and damage
by fire or other casualty excepted, and (ii) shall remove all of Subtenant's
personal property and all other property and effects of Subtenant and all
persons claiming through or under Subtenant from the Sublet Space and the
Building, and (iii) shall repair all damage to the Sublet Space occasioned by
such removal. Owner shall have the right to retain any property and effects
which shall remain in the Sublet Space after such termination, and any net
proceeds from the sale thereof, without waiving Owner's rights with respect to
any default by Subtenant under the foregoing provisions of this paragraph.
Subtenant expressly waives, for itself and for any person claiming through or
under Subtenant, any rights which Subtenant or any such persons may have under
the provisions of Section 2201 of the New York Civil Practice Law and Rules and
of any successor law of like import then in force, in connection with any
holdover summary proceedings which Owner may institute to enforce the foregoing
provisions of this paragraph. If the date of such termination shall fall on a
Sunday or holiday, then Subtenant's obligations under the first sentence of this
paragraph shall be performed on or prior to the Saturday or business day
immediately preceding such Sunday or holiday. Subtenant's obligations under this
paragraph shall survive the expiration or sooner termination of the terms of the
Lease and the Sublease. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this
paragraph, in the event that the Subtenant shall be required to attorn pursuant
to the provisions of paragraph (4) of this agreement, the foregoing provisions
of this paragraph shall have no force or effect. 

                   (4)  If at any time prior to the expiration of the term of
the Sublease, the term of the Lease shall terminate or be terminated for any
reason including, but not limited to, termination by operation of Articles 9,
10, 16 or 17 of the Lease or any other provisions of the Lease, or by operation
of law, Subtenant agrees, at the election and upon demand of the Owner or any
other owner of the Real Property (as defined in the Lease) or of the holder of
any mortgage in possession of the Real Property or the Building, or of any
lessee under any lease to which the Sublease shall be subject and subordinate to
attorn from 


                                          2
<PAGE>

time to time, to Owner or any such owner, holder or lessee, upon the then
executory terms and conditions set forth in the Sublease for the remainder of
the term demised in the Sublease, provided that Owner or such owner, holder or
lessee, as the case may be, shall then be entitled to possession of the Sublet
Space. The foregoing provisions of this paragraph shall enure to the benefit of
any such owner, holder or lessee and shall apply notwithstanding that, as a
matter of law, the Sublease may terminate upon the termination of the Lease,
shall be self-operative upon any such demand, and no further instrument shall be
required to give effect to said provisions. Upon demand of Owner or any such
owner, holder or lessee, Subtenant agrees however, to execute, from time to
time, instruments in confirmation of the foregoing provisions of this paragraph,
reasonably satisfactory to Owner or any such owner, holder or lessee, in which
Subtenant shall acknowledge such attornment and shall set forth the terms and
conditions of its tenancy. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall be
construed to impair any right otherwise exercisable by Owner or any such owner,
holder or lessee. Upon request of Owner or any such owner, holder or lessee,
whether or not made prior to such termination, Tenant and Subtenant shall
deliver an executed counterpart of the Sublease to the Owner.

                   (5)  Subtenant shall attempt to obtain and maintain
throughout the term of the Sublease, in Subtenant's fire insurance policies
covering Subtenant's property in the Sublet Space; and Subtenant's use and
occupancy of the Sublet Space, and/or Subtenant's profits (and shall cause any
other permitted occupants of the Sublet to attempt to obtain and maintain, in
similar policies), provisions to the effect that such policies shall not be
invalidated should the insured waive, in writing prior to a loss, any or all
right of recovery against any party for loss occasioned by fire or other
casualty which is an insured risk under such policies. In the event that at any
time the fire insurance carriers issuing such policies shall exact an additional
premium for the inclusion of such or similar provisions, Subtenant shall give
Owner and Tenant notice thereof. In such event, if either Owner or Tenant
requests, Subtenant shall require the inclusion of such similar provisions by
such fire insurance carriers and Tenant shall reimburse Subtenant for such
additional premium for the remainder of the term of the Sublease. As long as
such or similar provisions are included in such fire insurance policies then in
force, Subtenant hereby waives (and agrees to cause any other permitted
occupants of the Sublet Space to execute and deliver to Owner written
instruments waiving) any right of recovery against Owner, Tenant, any lessors
under any ground or underlying leases, any other tenants and occupants of the
Building, and any servants, employees, agents or contractors of Owner, Tenant or
of any such lessor, or of any such other tenants or occupants, for any loss
occasioned 


                                          3
<PAGE>

by fire or other casualty which is an insured risk under such policies. In the
event that at any time any such fire insurance carriers shall not include such
or similar provisions in any such fire insurance policy, the waiver set forth in
the foregoing sentence shall, upon notice given by Subtenant to Owner and
Tenant, be deemed of no further force or effect from and after the giving of
such notice. During any period while the foregoing waiver of right of recovery
is in effect, Subtenant, or any other permitted occupant of the Sublet Space, as
the case may be, shall look solely to the proceeds of such policies to
compensate Subtenant or such other permitted occupants for any loss occasioned
by fire or other casualty which is an insured risk under such policies.
Subtenant shall maintain comprehensive public liability insurance against any

                           COST OF LIVING ADJUSTMENTS.

      23. The fixed annual rent reserved in this lease and payable hereunder
shall be adjusted, as of the times and in the manner set forth in this Article:

      (a) Definitions: For the purposes of this Article, the following
definitions shall apply:

      (i) The term "Base Year" shall mean the full calendar year 1997.

      (ii) The term "Price Index" shall mean the "Consumer Price Index"
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor. All
Items. New York, N.Y.--Northeastern, N.J., all urban consumers (presently
denominated "CPI-U"), or a successor or substitute index appropriately adjusted.

      (iii) the term "Price Index for the Base Year" shall mean the average of
the monthly All Items Price Indexes for each of the 12 months of the Base Year.

      (b) Effective as of each January and July subsequent to the Base Year,
there shall be made a cost of living adjustment of the fixed annual rental rate
payable hereunder. The July adjustment shall be based on the percentage
difference between the Price Index for the preceding month of June and the Price
Index for the Base Year. The January adjustment shall be based on such
percentage difference between the Price Index for the preceding month of
December and the Price Index for the Base Year.

      (i) In the event the Price Index for June in any calendar year during the
term of this lease reflects an increase over the Price Index for the Base Year,
then the fixed annual rent herein provided to be paid as of the July 1st
following such month of June (unchanged by any adjustments under this Article)
shall be multiplied by the percentage difference between the Price Index for
June and the Price Index for the Base Year, and the resulting sum shall be added
to such fixed annual rent, effective as of such July 1st. Said adjusted fixed
annual rent shall thereafter be payable hereunder, in equal monthly
installments, until it is readjusted pursuant to the terms of this lease.

      (ii) In the event the Price Index for December in any calendar year during
the term of this lease reflects an increase over the Price Index for the Base
Year, then the fixed annual rent herein provided to be paid as of the January
1st following such month of December (unchanged by any adjustments under this
Article) shall be multiplied by the percentage difference between the Price
Index for December and the Price Index for the Base Year, and the resulting sum
shall be added to such fixed annual rent effective as of such January 1st. Said
adjusted fixed annual rent shall thereafter be payable hereunder, in equal
monthly installments, until it is readjusted pursuant to the terms or this
lease.

      The following illustrates the intentions of the parties hereto as to the
computation of the aforementioned cost of living adjustment in the annual rent
payable hereunder

            Assuming that said fixed annual rent is $10,000, that the Price
      Index for the Base Year was 102.0 and that the Price Index for the month
      of June in a calendar year following the Base Year was 105.0 then the
      percentage increase thus reflected, i.e. 2.94l% (3.0/102.0) would be
      multiplied by $10,000, and said fixed annual rent would be increased by
      $294.10 effective as of July 1st of said calendar year.

      In the event that the Price Index ceases to use 1982-84=100 as the basis
of calculation, or if a substantial change is made in the terms or number of
items contained in the Price Index, then the Price Index shall be adjusted to
the figure that would have been arrived at had the manner of computing the Price
Index in effect at the date of this lease not been altered. In the event such
Price Index (or a successor or substitute index) is not available, a reliable
governmental or other non-partisan publication evaluating the information
theretofore used in determining the Price Index shall be used.

      (c) Landlord will cause statements of the cost of living adjustments
provided for in subdivision (b) to be prepared in reasonable detail and
delivered to Tenant.

      (d) In no event shall the fixed annual rent originally provided to be paid
under this lease (exclusive of the adjustments under this Article) be reduced by
virtue of this Article.

      (e) Any delay or failure of Landlord, beyond July or January of any year,
computing or billing for the rent adjustments hereinabove provided shall not
constitute a waiver of or in any way impair the continuing obligation of Tenant
to pay such rent adjustments hereunder.

      (f) Notwithstanding any expiration or termination of this lease prior to
the lease expiration date (except in the case of a cancellation by mutual
agreement) Tenant's obligation to pay rent as adjusted under this Article shall
continue and shall cover all periods up to the lease expiration date, and shall
survive any expiration or termination of this lease.

      (g) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, the cost of living
adjustments to the fixed annual rental rate for any calendar year are limited in
an amount equal to 3% of the fixed annual rental payable under this lease as of
December 1st of the immediately preceeding calendar year, including any
adjustments under this article.

                                TAX ESCALATION.

      24. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, as additional rent, tax escalation in
accordance with this Article:

      (a) For purposes of this lease the rentable square foot area of the
presently demised premises shall be deemed to be 6439 square feet.

      (b) Definitions: For the purpose of this Article, the following
definitions shall apply:

            (i) The term "base tax year" as hereinafter set forth for the
      determination of real estate tax escalation, shall mean the New York City
      real estate tax year commencing July 1, 1997 and ending Jun 30, 1998
<PAGE>

            (ii) The term "The Percentage", for purposes of computing tax
      escalation, shall mean .00232 percent (2.32%). The Percentage has been
      computed on the basis of a fraction, the numerator of which is the
      rentable square foot area of the demised premises and the denominator of
      which is the total rentable square foot area of the office and commercial
      space in the building project. The parties acknowledge and agree that the
      total rentable square foot area of the office and commercial space in the
      building project shall be deemed to be 277155 sq. ft.

            (iii) The term "the building project" shall mean the aggregate
      combined parcel of land on a portion of which are the improvements of
      which the demised premises form a part, with all the improvements thereon,
      said improvements being a part of the block and lot for tax purposes which
      are applicable to the aforesaid land.

            (iv) The term "comparative year" shall mean the twelve (12) months
      following the base tax year, and each subsequent Period of twelve (12)
      months (or such other Period of twelve (12) months occurring during the
      term of this lease as hereafter may be duly adopted as the tax year for
      real estate tax purposes by the City of New York).

            (v) The term "real estate taxes" shall mean the total of all taxes
      and special or other assessments levied, assessed or imposed at any time
      by any governmental authority upon or against the building project, and
      also any tax or assessment levied, assessed or imposed at any time by any
      governmental authority in connection with the receipt of income or rents
      from said building project to the extent that same shall be in lieu of all
      or a portion of any of the aforesaid taxes or assessments, or additions or
      increases thereof, upon or against said building project. If, due to a
      future change in the method of taxation or in the taxing authority, or for
      any other reason, a franchise, income, transit, profit or other tax or
      governmental imposition, however designated, shall be levied against
      landlord in substitution in whole or in part for the real estate taxes, or
      in lieu of additions to or increases of said real estate taxes, then such
      franchise, income, transit, profit or other tax or governmental imposition
      shall be deemed to be included within the definition of "real estate
      taxes" for the purposes hereof. As to special assessments which are
      payable over a period of time extending beyond the term of this lease,
      only a pro rata portion thereof covering the portion of the term of this
      lease unexpired at the time of the imposition of such assessment, shall be
      included in "real estate taxes". If by law, any assessment may be paid in
      installments, then, for the purposes hereof (a) such assessment shall be
      deemed to have been payable in the maximum number of installments
      permitted by law and (b) there shall be included in real estate taxes, for
      each comparative year in which such installments may be paid, the
      installments of such assessment so becoming payable during such
      comparative year, together with interest payable during such comparative
      year.

            (vi) Where more than one assessment is imposed by the City of New
      York for any tax year, whether denominated an "actual assessment" or a
      "transitional assessment" or otherwise, then the phrases herein "assessed
      value" and "assessments" shall mean whichever of the actual, transitional
      or other assessment is designated by the City of New York as the taxable
      assessment for that tax year.

            (vii) The phrase "real estate taxes payable during the base tax
      year" shall mean that amount obtained by multiplying the assessed value of
      the land and buildings of the building project for the base tax year by
      the tax rate for the base tax year for each $100 of such assessed value.

      (c) 1. In the event that the real estate taxes payable for any comparative
year shall exceed the amount of the real estate taxes payable during the base
tax year, tenant shall pay to landlord, as additional rent for such comparative
year, an amount equal to The Percentage of the excess. Before or after the start
of each comparative year, Landlord shall furnish to Tenant a statement of the
real estate taxes payable for such comparative year, and a statement of the real
estate taxes payable during the base tax year. If the real estate taxes payable
for such comparative year exceed the real estate taxes payable during the base
tax year, additional rent for such comparative year, in an amount equal to The
Percentage of the excess, shall be due from Tenant to Landlord, and such
additional rent shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord within ten (10) days
after receipt of the aforesaid statement. The benefit of any discount for any
earlier payment or prepayment of real estate taxes shall accrue solely to the
benefit of Landlord, and such discount shall not be subtracted from the real
estate taxes payable for any comparative year.

      Additionally, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, a sum equal to The
Percentage of any business improvement district assessment payable by the
building project.

      2. Should the real estate taxes payable during the base tax year be
reduced by final determination of legal proceedings, settlement or otherwise,
then, the real estate taxes payable during the base tax year shall be
correspondingly revised, the additional rent theretofore paid or payable
hereunder for all comparative years shall be recomputed on the basis of such
reduction, and tenant shall pay to Landlord as additional rent, within ten (10)
days after being billed therefor, any deficiency between the amount of such
additional rent as theretofore computed and the amount thereof due as the result
of such recomputations. Should the real estate taxes payable during the base tax
year be increased by such final determination of legal proceedings, settlement
or otherwise, then appropriate recomputation and adjustment also shall be made.

      3. If after Tenant shall have made a payment or additional rent under this
subdivision (c), Landlord shall receive a refund of any portion of the real
estate taxes payable for any comparative year after the base tax year on which
such payment of additional rent shall have been based, as a result of a
reduction of such real estate taxes by final determination of legal proceedings,
settlement or otherwise, Landlord shall within ten (10) days after receiving the
refund pay to Tenant The Percentage of the refund less The Percentage of
expenses (including attorneys, and appraisers' fees) incurred by Landlord in
connection with any such application or proceeding. If prior to the payment of
taxes for any comparative year, Landlord shall have obtained a reduction of that
comparative year's assessed valuation of the building project, and therefore of
said taxes, then the term "real estate taxes" for that comparative year shall be
deemed to include the amount Landlord's expenses in obtaining such reduction in
assessed valuation, including attorneys' and appraisers' fees.

      4. The statements of the real estate taxes to be furnished by Landlord as
provided above shall be certified by Landlord and shall constitute a final
determination as between Landlord and Tenant of the real estate taxes for the
Periods represented thereby, unless Tenant within thirty (30) days after they
are furnished shall give a written notice to Landlord that it disputes their
accuracy or their appropriateness, which notice shall specify the particular
respects in which the statement is inaccurate or inappropriate. Tenant shall so
dispute said statement then, pending the resolution of such dispute, tenant
shall pay the additional rent to Landlord in accordance with the statement
furnished by Landlord.

      5. In no event shall the fixed annual rent under this lease (exclusive of
the additional rents under this Article) be reduced by virtue of this Article.

      6. If the commencement date of the term of this lease is not the first day
of the first comparative year, then the additional rent due hereunder for such
first comparative year shall be a proportionate share of said additional rent
for the entire comparative year, said proportionate share to be based upon the
length of time that the lease term will be in existence during such first
comparative year. Upon the date of any expiration or termination of this lease
(except termination because of Tenant's default) whether the same be the date
hereinabove set forth for the expiration of the term, or any prior or subsequent
date, a proportionate share of said additional rent for the comparative year
during which such expiration or termination occurs shall immediately become due
and payable by Tenant to Landlord, if it was not theretofore already billed and
paid. The said proportionate share shall be based upon the length of time that
this lease shall have been in existence during such comparative year. Landlord
shall promptly cause statements of said additional rent for that comparative
year to be prepared and furnished to lessee. Landlord and Tenant shall thereupon
make appropriate adjustments of amounts then owing.

      7. Landlord's and Tenant's obligations to make the adjustments referred to
in subdivision (6) above shall survive any expiration or termination of this
lease.

      8. Any delay or failure of lessor in billing any tax escalation
hereinabove provided shall not constitute a waiver of or in any way impair the
continuing obligation of lessee to pay such tax escalation hereunder.

                                  JURY WAIVER.

      26. Landlord and Tenant hereby waive trial by jury in any action,
proceeding or counterclaim involving any matter whatsoever arising out of or in
any way connected with this lease, the relationship of landlord and tenant,

property damage) or involving the right to any statutory relief or remedy.

proceeding.

                                 NO WAIVER, ETC.

      27. No act or omission of Landlord or its agents shall constitute an
actual or constructive eviction, unless Landlord shall have first received
written notice of Tenant's claim and shall have had a reasonable opportunity to
verify such claim (Not to exceed two days). In the event that any payment herein
provided for by Tenant to Landlord shall become overdue for a period in excess
of ten (10) days after written notice by Landlord, then at landlord's option a
"late charge" shall become due and payable to Landlord, as additional rent, from
the date it was due until payment is made at the following rates: for individual
and partnership Tenants, said late charge shall be computed at the maximum legal
rate of interest; for corporate or governmental entity Tenants the late charge
shall be computed as two percent per month unless there is an applicable maximum
legal rate of interest which then shall be used. No act or omission of Landlord
or its agents shall constitute an acceptance of a surrender of the premises,
except a writing signed by Landlord. The delivery of keys to Landlord, or its
agents shall not constitute a termination of this lease or a surrender of the
premises. Acceptance by Landlord of less than the rent herein provided shall at
Landlord's option be deemed on account of earliest rent remaining unpaid. No
endorsement on any check, or letter accompanying rent, shall be deemed an accord
and satisfaction, and such check may be cashed without prejudice to Landlord. No
waiver of any provision of this lease by Landlord shall be effective,
<PAGE>

unless such waiver be in writing signed by Landlord. This lease contains the
entire agreement between the parties, and no modification thereof shall be
binding unless in writing and signed by the party concerned. Tenant shall comply
with the rules and regulations printed in this lease, and any reasonable
modifications thereof or additions thereto. Landlord shall not be liable to
Tenant for the violation of such rules and regulations by any other tenant.

regulation, shall not be construed as the waiver of any subsequent violation of
a provision of this lease, or any rule or regulation. This lease shall not be
affected by nor shall Landlord in any way be liable for the closing, darkening
or bricking up of windows in the premises, for any reason, including as the
result of construction on any property of which the premises are not a part or

Tenant for any purpose other than ordinary lavatory uses, and any sewer rent or
tax based thereon. Landlord may install a water meter to measure Tenant's water
consumption for all purposes and Tenant agrees to pay for the installation and
maintenance thereof and for water consumed as shown on said meter. If water is
made available to Tenant in the building or the demised premises through a meter

Landlord $ None per month for water.

                               SPRINKLER SYSTEM.

      31. If there shall be a "sprinkler system" in the demised premises for any
period during this lease, Tenant shall pay $ None per month, for sprinkler
supervisory service. If such sprinkler system is damaged by any non-agent act of

premises, including any alteration necessary to obtain the full allowance for a
sprinkler system in the fire insurance rate of Landlord, or for any other
reason, Tenant shall make such installation or alteration promptly, and at its
own expense.

rentals herein reserved are a reasonable rental and agree to continue to pay
said rentals, and if such agreement by Tenant shall then be legally enforceable

of such provision to persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is
held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each provision

                            RIDER ANNEXED TO AND MADE

                             PART OF A LEASE BETWEEN

                   INVESTMENT PROPERTIES ASSOCIATES, LANDLORD

                          AND DoubleClick, Inc., TENANT

                                   ELECTRICITY

41. Tenant agrees that Landlord may furnish electricity to Tenant on a
"submetering" basis or on a "rent inclusion" basis. Electricity and electric
service, as used herein, shall mean any element affecting the generation,
transmission, and/or distribution or redistribution of electricity, including
but not limited to services which facilitate the distribution of service.

      (A). Submetering: If and so long as Landlord provides electricity to the
demised premises on a submetering basis, Tenant covenants and agrees to purchase
the same from Landlord or Landlord's designated agent at charges, terms and
rates set, from time to time, during the term of this lease by Landlord but not
more than those specified in the service classification in effect on January 1,
1970 pursuant to which Landlord then purchased electric current from the public
utility corporation serving the part of the city where the building is located:
provided however, said charges shall be increased in the same percentage as any
percentage increase in the billing to Landlord for electricity for the entire
building, by reason of increase in Landlord's electric rates or service
classifications, subsequent to January 1, 1970, and so as to reflect any
increase in Landlord's electric charges, including changes in market prices for
electricity from utilities and/or other providers, in fuel adjustments, or by
taxes or charges of any kind imposed on Landlord`s electricity purchases or
redistribution, or for any other such reason, subsequent to said date. Any such
percentage increase in Landlord's billing for electricity due to changes in
rates, service classifications, or market prices, shall be computed by the
application of the average consumption (energy and demand) of electricity for
the entire building for the twelve (12) full months immediately prior to the
rate and/or service classification change, or any changed methods of or rules on
billing for same, applied on a consistent basis to the new rate and/or service
classification or market price, and to the service classification and rate in
effect on January 1, 1970. If the average consumption of electricity for the
entire building for said prior twelve (12) months cannot reasonably be applied
and used with respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then the
percentage shall be computed by the use of the average consumption (energy and
demand) for the entire building for the first three (3) months after such
change, projected to a full twelve (12) months, so as to reflect the different
seasons: and that same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to the
service classification and rate in effect on January 1, 1970. Where more than
one meter measures the service of Tenant in the building, the service rendered
through each meter may be computed and billed separately in accordance with the
rates herein specified. Bills therefore shall be rendered at such times as
Landlord may elect and the amount, as computed from a meter, shall be deemed to
be, and be paid as, additional rent. In the event that such bills are not paid
within five (5) days after the same are rendered. Landlord may, without further
notice, discontinue the service of electric current to the demised premises
without releasing Tenant from any liability under this lease and without
Landlord or Landlord's agent incurring any liability for any damage or loss
sustained by lessee by such
<PAGE>

discontinuance of service. If any tax is imposed upon Landlord's receipt from
the sale, resale or redistribution of electricity or gas or telephone service to
Tenant by any Federal, State, or Municipal authority. Tenant covenants and
agrees that where permitted by law, Tenant's pro-rata share of such taxes shall
be passed on to and included in the bill of, and paid by, Tenant to Landlord.

      (B). Rent Inclusion: If and so long as Landlord provides electricity to
the demised premises on a rent inclusion basis, Tenant agrees that the fixed
annual rent shall be increased by the amount of the Electricity Rent Inclusion
Factor ("ERIF"), as hereinafter defined. Tenant acknowledges and agrees (i) that
the the fixed annual rent hereinabove set forth in this lease does not yet, but
is to include an ERIF of $2.95 per rentable square foot to compensate Landlord
for electrical wiring and other installations necessary for, and for its
obtaining and making available to Tenant the redistribution of electric current
as an additional service; and (ii) that said ERIF, which shall be subject to
periodic adjustments as hereinafter provided, has been partially based upon an
estimate of the Tenant's connected electrical load, in whatever manner delivered
to Tenant, which shall be deemed to be the demand (KW), and hours of use
thereof, which shall be deemed to be the energy (KWH), for ordinary lighting and
light office equipment and the operation of the usual small business machines,
including Xerox or other copying machines (such lighting and equipment are
hereinafter called "Ordinary Equipment") during ordinary business hours
("ordinary business hours" shall be deemed to mean 50 hours per week), with
Landlord providing an average connected load of 4 1/2 watts of electricity for
all purposes per rentable square foot. Any installation and use of equipment
other than Ordinary Equipment and/or any connected load and/or energy usage by
Tenant in excess of the foregoing shall result in adjustment of the ERIF as
hereinafter provided. For purposes of this lease the rentable square foot area
of the presently demised premises shall be deemed to be 6,439 square feet.

      If the cost to Landlord of electricity shall have been, or shall be,
increased or decreased subsequent to May 1, 1996 (whether such change occurs
prior to or during the term of this Lease), by change in Landlord's electric
rates or service classifications, or electricity charges, including changes in
market prices, or by any increase, subsequent to the last such electric rate or
service classification change or market price change, in fuel adjustments or
charges of any kind, or by taxes, imposed on Landlord's electricity purchases or
on Landlord's electricity redistribution, or for any other such reason, then the
aforesaid ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent shall be changed in the same
percentage as any such change in cost due to changes in electric rates, service
classifications or market prices, and, also Tenant's payment obligation, for
electricity redistribution, shall change from time to time so as to reflect any
such increase in fuel adjustments or charges, and such taxes. Any such
percentage change in Landlord's cost due to change in Landlord's electric rates
or service classifications or market prices shall be computed on the basis of
the average consumption of electricity for the building for the twelve full
months immediately prior to the rate change or other such changes in cost,
energy and demand, and any changed methods of or rules on billing for same,
applied on a consistent basis to the new electric rate or service classification
or market price and to the immediately prior existing electric rate or service
classification or market price. If the average consumption (energy and demand)
for the entire building for said prior (12) months cannot reasonably be applied
and used with respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then the
percentage increase shall be computed by the use of the average consumption
(energy and demand) for the entire building for the first three (3) months after
such change, projected to a full twelve (12) months, so as to reflect the
different seasons; and that same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to
the rate and/or service classification or market price which existed immediately
prior to the change. The parties agree that a reputable, independent electrical
consultant firm, selected by Landlord. ("Landlord's electrical consultant"),
shall determine the percentage change for the changes in ERIF due to Landlord's
changed costs, and that Landlord's
<PAGE>

electrical consultant may from time to time make surveys in the demised premises
of the electrical equipment and fixtures and use of current. (i) If such survey
shall reflect a connected electrical load in the demised premises in excess of 4
1/2 watts of electricity for all purposes per rentable square foot and/or energy
usage in excess of ordinary business hours (each such excess hereinafter called
"excess electricity") then the connected electrical load and/or the hours of use
portion(s) of the then existing ERIF shall be increased by an amount which is
equal to a fraction of the then exisiting ERIF, the numerator of which is the
excess electricity (i.e. excess connected load and/or excess usage) and the
denominator of which is the connected load and/or the energy usage which was the
basis of the then existing ERIF. Such fractions shall be determined by
Landlord's electrical consultant. The fixed annual rent shall then be
appropriately adjusted, effective as of the date of any such change in connected
load and/or usage, as disclosed by said survey. (ii) If such survey shall
disclose installation and use of other than Ordinary Equipment, then effective
as of the date of said survey, there shall be added to the ERIF portion of fixed
annual rent (computed and fixed as hereinbefore described) an additional amount
equal to what would be paid under the SC-4 Rate I Service Classification in
effect on May 1, 1996 (and not the time-of-day rate schedule) for such load and
usage of electricity, with the connected electrical load deemed to be the demand
(KW) and the hours of use thereof deemed to be the energy (KWH), as hereinbefore
provided, (which addition to the ERIF shall be increased or decreased by all
electricity cost changes of Landlord, as hereinabove provided, from May 1, 1996
through the date of billing).

      In no event, whether because of surveys, rates or cost changes, or for any
other reason, is the originally specified $2.95 per per rentable square foot
ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent (plus any net increase thereof, but not
decrease, by virtue of all electricity rate, service classification or market
price changes of Landlord subsequent to May 1, 1996) to be reduced.

      (C). General Conditions: The determinations by Landlord's electrical
consultant shall be binding and conclusive on Landlord and Tenant from and after
the delivery of copies of such determinations to Landlord and Tenant, unless,
within fifteen (15) days after delivery thereof, Tenant disputes such
determination. If Tenant so disputes the determination, it shall, at its own
expense, obtain from a reputable, independent electrical consultant its own
determinations in accordance with the provisions of this Article. Tenant's
consultant and Landlord's consultant then shall seek to agree. If they cannot
agree within thirty (30) days they shall choose a third reputable electrical
consultant, whose cost shall be shared equally by the parties, to make similar
determinations which shall be controlling. (If they cannot agree on such third
consultant within ten (10) days, than either party may apply to the Supreme
Court in the County of New York for such appointment.) However, pending such
controlling determinations. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of
additional rent or ERIF in accordance with the determinations of Landlord's
electrical consultant. If the controlling determinations differ from Landlord's
electrical consultant, then the parties shall promptly make adjustment for any
deficiency owed by Tenant or overage paid by Tenant.

      At the option of Landlord. Tenant agrees to purchase from Landlord or its
agents all lamps and bulbs used in the demised premises and to pay for the cost
of installation thereof. Supplementing Article 35 hereof, if all or part of the
submetering additional rent or the ERIF payable in acccordance with Subdivision
(A) or (B) of this Article becomes uncollectible or reduced or refunded by
virtue of any law, order or regulation, the parties agree that, at Landlord's
option, in lieu of submetering additional rent or ERIF, and in consideration of
Tenant's use of the building's electrical distribution system and receipt of
redistributed electricity and payment by Landlord of consultant's fees and other
redistribution costs, the fixed annual rental rate(s) to be paid under this
lease shall be increased by an
<PAGE>

alternative charge" which shall be a sum equal to $2.95 per year per rentable
square foot of the demised premises, changed in the same percentage as any
increases in the cost to Landlord for electricity for the entire building
subsequent to May 1, 1996, because of electric rate, service classification or
market price changes, such percentage change to be computed as in Subdivision
(B) provided.

      Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage or expense
which Tenant may sustain or incur if either the quantity or character of
electric service is changed or is no longer available or suitable for Tenant's
requirements. Tenant covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric
current shall never exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the building or
wiring installation. Tenant agrees not to connect any additional electrical
equipment to the building electric distribution system, other than lamps,
typewriters and other small office machines which consume comparable amounts of
electricity, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld. Any riser or risers to supply Tenant's electrical
requirements, upon written request of Tenant, will be installed by Landlord, at
the sole cost and expense of Tenant, if, in Landlord's sole judgment, the same
are necessary and will not cause permanent damage or injury to the building or
demised premises or cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition or entail
excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or expense or interfere with or
disturb other tenants or occupants. In addition to the installation of such
riser or risers, Landlord will also at the sole cost and expense of Tenant,
install all other equipment proper and necessary in connection therewith subject
to the aforesaid terms and conditions. The parties acknowledge that they
understand that it is anticipated that electric rates, charges, etc., may be
changed by virtue of time-of-day rates or changes in other methods of billing,
and/or electricity purchases and the redistribtition thereof, and fluctuation in
the market price of electricity, and that the references in the foregoing
paragragraphs to changes in methods of or rules on billing, are intended to
include any such changes. Anything hereinabove to the contrary notwithstanding,
in no event is the submetering additional rent or ERIF, or any "alternative
charge", to be less than an amount equal to the total of Landlord's payments to
public utilities and/or other providers for the electricity consumed by Tenant
(and any taxes thereon or on redistribution of same) plus 5% thereof for
transmission line loss, plus 15% thereof for other redistribution costs. The
Landlord reserves the right, at any time upon thirty (30) days' written notice,
to change its furnishing of electricity to Tenant from a rent inclusion basis to
a submetering basis, or vice versa, or to change to the distribution of less
than all the components of the existing service to Tenant. The Landlord reserves
the right to terminate the furnishing of electricity on a rent inclusion,
submetering, or any other basis at any time, upon thirty (30) days' written
notice to the Tenant, in which event the Tenant may make application directly to
the public utility and/or other providers for the Tenant's entire separate
supply of electric current and Landlord shall permit its wires and conduits, to
the extent available and safely capable, to be used for such purpose, but only
to the extent of Tenant's then authorized load. Any meters, risers, or other
equipment or connections necessary to furnish electricity on a submetering basis
or to enable Tenant to obtain electric current directly from such utility and/or
other providers shall be installed at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Only rigid
conduit or electricity metal tubing (EMT) will be allowed. The Landlord, upon
the expiration of the aforesaid thirty (30) days' written notice to the Tenant
may discontinue furnishing the electric current but this lease shall otherwise
remain in full force and effect. If Tenant was provided electricity on a rent
inclusion basis when it was so discontinued, then commencing when Tenant
receives such direct service and as long as Tenant shall continue to receive
such service, the fixed annual rent payable under this lease shall be reduced by
the amount of the ERIF which was payable immediately prior to such
discontinuance of electricity on a rent inclusion basis.

if the premises or the building are damaged, and such damage materially
interferes with Lessee's ability to operate its business within the premises and
such damage is not repaired within sixty (60) days or, if in Lessee's reasonable
opinion, such damage cannot be repaired within sixty (60) days after the date of
such damage, then Lessee may terminate this lease by giving Lessor written
notice of such termination by certified mail return receipt requested. Further
notwithstanding anything in Paragraph 10 to the contrary, Lessor hereby waives
any claims for damages or other liability that Lessor may have against Lessee to
the extent that same are covered by Lessor's insurance or would be covered by
any insurance that a reasonably prudent owner of similar buildings in the
general area of the subject building (within which the premises are located)
would carry.

PAR 50  The parties hereto acknowledge that the premises are now vacant.
However, notwithstanding anything in Paragraph 16 to the contrary, if Lessor is

                              PART OF A LEASE BETWEEN

                    IN VESTMENT PROPERTIES ASSOCIATES, LANDLORD

                        AND DOUBLECLICK, INC., TENANT

                                    ELECTRICITY

41. Tenant agrees that Landlord may furnish electricity to Tenant on a
"submetering" basis or on a "rent inclusion" basis. Electricity and electric
service, as used herein, shall mean any element affecting the generation,
transmission, and/or distribution or redistribution of electricity, including
but not limited to services which facilitate the distribution of service.

      (A). Submetering: If and so long as Landlord provides electricity to the
demised premises on a submetering basis, Tenant covenants and agrees to purchase
the same from Landlord or Landlord's designated agent at charges, terms and
rates set, from time to time, during the term of this lease by Landlord but not
more than those specified in the service classification in effect on January 1,
1970 pursuant to which Landlord then purchased electric current from the public
utility corporation serving the part of the city where the building is located;
provided however, said charges shall be increased in the same percentage as any
percentage increase in the billing to Landlord for electricity for the entire
building, by reason of increase in Landlord's electric rates or service
classifications, subsequent to January 1, 1970, and so as to reflect any
increase in Landlord's electric charges, including changes in market prices for
electricity from utilities and/or other providers, in fuel adjustments, or by
taxes or charges of any kind imposed on Landlord's electricity purchases or
redistribution, or for any other such reason, subsequent to said date. Any such
percentage increase in Landlord's billing for electricity due to changes in
rates, service classifications, or market prices, shall be computed by the
application of the average consumption (energy and demand) of electricity for
the entire building for the twelve (12) full months immediately prior to the
rate and/or service classification change, or any changed methods of or rules on
billing for same, applied on a consistent basis to the new rate and/or service
classification or market price, and to the service classification and rate in
effect on January 1, 1970. If the average consumption of electricity for the
entire building for said prior twelve (12) months cannot reasonably be applied
and used with respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then the
percentage shall be computed by the use of the average consumption (energy and
demand) for the entire building for the first three (3) months after such
change, projected to a full twelve (12) months, so as to reflect the different
seasons; and that same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to the
service classification and rate in effect on January 1, 1970. Where more than
one meter measures the service of Tenant in the building, the service rendered
through each meter may be computed and billed separately in accordance with the
rates herein specified. Bills therefore shall be rendered at such times as
Landlord may elect and the amount, as computed from a meter, shall be deemed to
be, and be paid as, additional rent. In the event that such bills are not paid
within five (5) days after the same are rendered. Landlord may, without further
notice, discontinue the service of electric current to the demised premises
without releasing Tenant from any liability under this lease and without
Landlord or Landlord's agent incurring any liability for any damage or loss
sustained by lessee by such
<PAGE>

discontinuance of service. If any tax is imposed upon Landlord's receipt from
the sale, resale or redistribution of electricity or gas or telephone service to
Tenant by any Federal, State, or Municipal authority. Tenant covenants and
agrees that where permitted by law, Tenant's pro-rata share of such taxes shall
be passed on to and included in the bill of, and paid by, Tenant to Landlord.

      (B). Rent Inclusion: If and so long as Landlord provides electricity to
the demised premises on a rent inclusion basis, Tenant agrees that the fixed
annual rent shall be increased by the amount of the Electricity Rent Inclusion
Factor ("ERIF"), as hereinafter defined. Tenant acknowledges and agrees (i) that
the the fixed annual rent hereinabove set forth in this lease does not yet, but
is to include an ERIF of $3.15 per rentable square foot to compensate Landlord
for electrical wiring and other installations necessary for, and for its
obtaining and making available to Tenant the redistribution of electric current
as an additional service; and (ii) that said ERIF, which shall be subject to
periodic adjustments as hereinafter provided, has been partially based upon an
estimate of the Tenant's connected electrical load, in whatever manner delivered
to Tenant, which shall be deemed to be the demand (KW). and hours of use
thereof, which shall be deemed to be the energy (KWH), for ordinary lighting and
light office equipment and the operation of the usual small business machines,
including Xerox or other copying machines (such lighting and equipment are
hereinafter called "Ordinary Equipment") during ordinary business hours
("ordinary business hours" shall be deemed to mean 50 hours per week), with
Landlord providing an average connected load of 4 1/2 watts of electricity for
all purposes per rentable square foot. Any installation and use of equipment
other than Ordinary Equipment and/or any connected load and/or energy usage by
Tenant in excess of the foregoing shall result in adjustment of the ERIF as
hereinafter provided. For purposes of this lease the rentable square foot area
of the presently demised premises shall be deemed to be 3454 square feet.

      If the cost to Landlord of electricity shall have been, or shall be,
increased or decreased subsequent to May 1, 1996 (whether such change occurs
prior to or during the term of this Lease), by change in Landlord's electric
rates or service classifications, or electricity charges, including changes in
market prices, or by any increase, subsequent to the last such electric rate or
service classification change or market price change, in fuel adjustments or
charges of any kind, or by taxes, imposed on Landlord's electricity purchases or
on Landlord's electricity redistribution, or for any other such reason, then the
aforesaid ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent shall be changed in the same
percentage as any such change in cost due to changes in electric rates, service
classifications or market prices, and, also Tenant's payment obligation, for
electricity redistribution, shall change from time to time so as to reflect any
such increase in fuel adjustments or charges, and such taxes. Any such
percentage change in Landlord's cost due to change in Landlord's electric rates
or service classifications or market prices shall be computed on the basis of
the average consumption of electricity for the building for the twelve full
months immediately prior to the rate change or other such changes in cost,
energy and demand, and any changed methods of or rules on billing for same,
applied on a consistent basis to the new electric rate or service classification
or market price and to the immediately prior existing electric rate or service
classification or market price. If the average consumption (energy and demand)
for the entire building for said prior (12) months cannot reasonably be applied
and used with respect to changed methods of or rules on billing, then the
percentage increase shall be computed by the use of the average consumption
(energy and demand) for the entire building for the first three (3) months after
such change, projected to a full twelve (12) months, so as to reflect the
different seasons; and that same consumption, so projected, shall be applied to
the rate and/or service classification or market price which existed immediately
prior to the change. The parties agree that a reputable, independent electrical
consultant firm, selected by Landlord. ("Landlord's electrical consultant"),
shall determine the percentage change for the changes in ERIF due to Landlord's
changed costs, and that Landlord's
<PAGE>

electrical consultant may from time to time make surveys in the demised premises
of the electrical equipment and fixtures and use of current. (i) If such survey
shall reflect a connected electrical load in the demised premises in excess of 4
1/2 watts of electricity for all purposes per rentable square foot and/or energy
usage in excess of ordinary business hours (each such excess hereinafter called
"excess electricity") then the connected electrical load and/or the hours of use
portion(s) of the then existing ERIF shall be increased by an amount which is
equal to a fraction of the then exisiting ERIF, the numerator of which is the
excess electricity (i.e. excess connected load and/or excess usage) and the
denominator of which is the connected load and/or the energy usage which was the
basis of the then existing ERIF. Such fractions shall be determined by
Landlord's electrical consultant. The fixed annual rent shall then be
appropriately adjusted, effective as of the date of any such change in connected
load and/or usage, as disclosed by said survey. (ii) If such survey shall
disclose installation and use of other than Ordinary Equipment, then effective
as of the date of said survey, there shall be added to the ERIF portion of fixed
annual rent (computed and fixed as hereinbefore described) an additional amount
equal to what would be paid under the SC-4 Rate I Service Classification in
effect on May 1, 1996 (and not the time-of-day rate schedule) for such load and
usage of electricity, with the connected electrical load deemed to be the demand
(KW) and the hours of use thereof deemed to be the energy (KWH), as hereinbefore
provided, (which addition to the ERIF shall be increased or decreased by all
electricity cost changes of Landlord, as hereinabove provided, from May 1, 1996
through the date of billing).

      In no event, whether because of surveys, rates or cost changes, or for any
other reason, is the originally specified $3.15 per per rentable square foot
ERIF portion of the fixed annual rent (plus any net increase thereof, but not
decrease, by virtue of all electricity rate, service classification or market
price changes of Landlord subsequent to May 1, 1996) to be reduced.

      (C). General Conditions: The determinations by Landlord's electrical
consultant shall be binding and conclusive on Landlord and Tenant from and after
the delivery of copies of such determinations to Landlord and Tenant, unless,
within fifteen (15) days after delivery thereof, Tenant disputes such
determination. If Tenant so disputes the determination, it shall, at its own
expense, obtain from a reputable, independent electrical consultant its own
determinations in accordance with the provisions of this Article. Tenant's
consultant and Landlord's consultant then shall seek to agree. If they cannot
agree within thirty (30) days they shall choose a third reputable electrical
consultant, whose cost shall be shared equally by the parties, to make similar
determinations which shall be controlling. (If they cannot agree on such third
consultant within ten (10) days, than either party may apply to the Supreme
Court in the County of New York for such appointment.) However, pending such
controlling determinations. Tenant shall pay to Landlord the amount of
additional rent or ERIF in accordance with the determinations of Landlord's
electrical consultant. If the controlling determinations differ from Landlord's
electrical consultant, then the parties shall promptly make adjustment for any
deficiency owed by Tenant or overage paid by Tenant.

      At the option of Landlord. Tenant agrees to purchase from Landlord or its
agents all lamps and bulbs used in the demised premises and to pay for the cost
of installation thereof. Supplementing Article 35 hereof, if all or part of the
submetering additional rent or the ERIF payable in acccordance with Subdivision
(A) or (B) of this Article becomes uncollectible or reduced or refunded by
virtue of any law, order or regulation, the parties agree that, at Landlord's
option, in lieu of submetering additional rent or ERIF, and in consideration of
Tenant's use of the building's electrical distribution system and receipt of
redistributed electricity and payment by Landlord of consultant's fees and other
redistribution costs, the fixed annual rental rate(s) to be paid under this
lease shall be increased by an
<PAGE>

alternative charge" which shall be a sum equal to $3.15 per year per rentable
square foot of the demised premises, changed in the same percentage as any
increases in the cost to Landlord for electricity for the entire building
subsequent to May 1, 1996, because of electric rate, service classification or
market price changes, such percentage change to be computed as in Subdivision
(B) provided.

      Landlord shall not be liable to Tenant for any loss or damage or expense
which Tenant may sustain or incur if either the quantity or character of
electric service is changed or is no longer available or suitable for Tenant's
requirements. Tenant covenants and agrees that at all times its use of electric
current shall never exceed the capacity of existing feeders to the building or
wiring installation. Tenant agrees not to connect any additional electrical
equipment to the building electric distribution system, other than lamps,
typewriters and other small office machines which consume comparable amounts of
electricity, without Landlord's prior written consent, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld. Any riser or risers to supply Tenant's electrical
requirements, upon written request of Tenant, will be installed by Landlord, at
the sole cost and expense of Tenant, if, in Landlord's sole judgment, the same
are necessary and will not cause permanent damage or injury to the building or
demised premises or cause or create a dangerous or hazardous condition or entail
excessive or unreasonable alterations, repairs or expense or interfere with or
disturb other tenants or occupants. In addition to the installation of such
riser or risers, Landlord will also at the sole cost and expense of Tenant,
install all other equipment proper and necessary in connection therewith subject
to the aforesaid terms and conditions. The parties acknowledge that they
understand that it is anticipated that electric rates, charges, etc., may be
changed by virtue of time-of-day rates or changes in other methods of billing,
and/or electricity purchases and the redistribtition thereof, and fluctuation in
the market price of electricity, and that the references in the foregoing
paragragraphs to changes in methods of or rules on billings are intended to
include any such changes. Anything hereinabove to the contrary notwithstanding,
in no event is the submetering additional rent or ERIF, or any "alternative
charge", to be less than an amount equal to the total of Landlord's payments to
public utilities and/or other providers for the electricity consumed by Tenant
(and any taxes thereon or on redistribution of same) plus 5% thereof for
transmission line loss, plus 15% thereof for other redistribution costs. The
Landlord reserves the right, at any time upon thirty (30) days' written notice,
to change its furnishing of electricity to Tenant from a rent inclusion basis to
a submetering basis, or vice versa, or to change to the distribution of less
than all the components of the existing service to Tenant. The Landlord reserves
the right to terminate the furnishing of electricity on a rent inclusion,
submetering, or any other basis at any time, upon thirty (30) days' written
notice to the Tenant, in which event the Tenant may make application directly to
the public utility and/or other providers for the Tenant's entire separate
supply of electric current and Landlord shall permit its wires and conduits, to
the extent available and safely capable, to be used for such purpose, but only
to the extent of Tenant's then authorized load. Any meters, risers, or other
equipment or connections necessary to furnish electricity on a submetering basis
or to enable Tenant to obtain electric current directly from such utility and/or
other providers shall be installed at Tenant's sole cost and expense. Only rigid
conduit or electricity metal tubing (EMT) will be allowed. The Landlord, upon
the expiration of the aforesaid thirty (30) days' written notice to the Tenant
may discontinue furnishing the electric current but this lease shall otherwise
remain in full force and effect. If Tenant was provided electricity on a rent
inclusion basis when it was so discontinued, then commencing when Tenant
receives such direct service and as long as Tenant shall continue to receive
such service, the fixed annual rent payable under this lease shall be reduced by
the amount of the ERIF which was payable immediately prior to such
discontinuance of electricity on a rent inclusion basis.

    A.   In full consideration of the Company providing the use of the Spot,
         DoubleClick shall pay Company, and Company agrees to accept,   *  
         of the Net Revenues generated on Banners which are delivered
         through the Service to Pages after the December Delivery
         Period and DoubleClick shall retain  *   of said Net Revenues; 
         provided, however, if the Earned Revenues generated on Banners 
         which are delivered through the Service to Pages after the
         December Delivery Period do not meet minimum calendar quarterly goals
         which are mutually agreed upon by Company and DoubleClick (the
         "Quarterly Goals"), then DoubleClick shall pay Company, and Company
         agrees to accept,  *  of the Net Revenues generated on Banners 
         which are delivered through the Service to Pages for the
         succeeding calendar quarter and DoubleClick shall retain * 
         of said Net Revenues for the succeeding calendar quarter. 
         The parties expressly acknowledge and agree that the
         Quarterly Goals for 1997 shall be  *  for the first quarter of 
         1997;  *  for the second quarter of 1997;  *  for the 
         third quarter of 1997; and  *  for the fourth quarter of

         Quarterly Goals, commencing with the third calendar quarter of 1997,
         DoubleClick and Company shall reasonably determine whether Company is
         among the top  *  Internet Search Engines in terms of gross
         advertising revenue earned by such Internet Search Engines from the
         placement of Banners on said Internet Search Engines for each calendar

         Company, and Company agrees to accept,  *  of the Net Revenues
         generated on Banners which are delivered through the Service to Pages
         for the succeeding calendar quarter and DoubleClick shall retain
          *   of said Net Revenues for the succeeding calendar quarter.  
         DoubleClick anticipates that the majority of Net Revenues derived from 
         the delivery of Banners through the Service to Pages is 

*Represents material which has been redacted pursuant to a request for 
confidential treatment pursuant to Rule 406 promulgated under the Securities 
Act of 1933, as amended.

         incurs in connection with the Service or performance of its
         obligations under this Agreement including, without limitation,
         expenses associated with any HTML programming and linking Pages to the
         Service.

    D.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the
         event Company terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section II
         above and DoubleClick, prior to said termination, has entered into
         agreements with Advertisers ("Advertiser Contracts") for the delivery
         of Banners to the Pages, the duration of which Advertiser Contracts
         extend beyond the date on which this Agreement has been terminated by
         Company, DoubleClick shall be entitled to  *  of the revenues 
         derived from the continued delivery of said Banners by Company or 
         any party other than DoubleClick.

    E.   If Company requests DoubleClick to deliver banners from advertisers
         which were secured by Company or a third party to any Web Site pages
         not linked to the Service, DoubleClick's compensation for such
         delivery shall be negotiated in good faith by the parties hereto. 
         DoubleClick expressly agrees that it shall deliver Company Partner
         Banners pursuant to this Section III.E.  in accordance with the terms
         set forth in Appendix 1 hereto.

         disapproves of a Banner which is then currently being delivered by
         DoubleClick to the Web Site and that such Banner should no longer be

         reasonable and necessary in its sole good faith discretion, or in the
         event of any material change in the nature of the Web Site or the Page
         from that set forth in Company's application.  DoubleClick shall give
         Company notice of any such removal of Pages, except where DoubleClick
         reasonably believes that the failure to remove such Pages will result
         in harm or damage to DoubleClick or the Service.

    B.   Company acknowledges and agrees that promotion of the Service is
         critical to enhance usage by Advertisers and in connection therewith
         Company agrees that (i) DoubleClick shall have the right to use

         a reasonable amount of Company's promotional materials so as to
         facilitate DoubleClick's sales efforts to prospective Advertisers. 
         The parties acknowledge and agree that DoubleClick shall not be
         required to obtain Company's permission prior to the use of Company's
         Marks in advertising and promoting the Service; provided, however,
         that DoubleClick shall at all times comply with the guidelines set
         forth by Company pertaining to the use of Company's name, trademarks
         or logos, which guidelines are set forth in Appendix 3 hereto.  If
         DoubleClick fails to comply with said guidelines, Company shall so
         notify DoubleClick and DoubleClick shall within a reasonable period of
         time thereafter prospectively conform such use to Company's standards. 
         If DoubleClick fails to conform such use, Company shall have the right
         to suspend DoubleClick's non-conforming use of the Company Marks.

    C.   DoubleClick agrees to actively promote the Web Site to the advertising
         community.  Seminars, sales materials, trade materials, print and

         among the means by which DoubleClick shall promote the Web Site. 
         DoubleClick further agrees to promote Company both as part of the
         network of web sites linked to the Service and as a premium web site
         using collateral materials and a rate card customized to Company and
         the Web Site.

    D.   DoubleClick shall have the right to use for DoubleClick's own internal
         use in connection with the Service or for use in connection with
         potential Advertisers on the Service, information concerning Pages,
         Impressions and users accessing Pages obtained through the Service,
         provided DoubleClick does not reproduce any Pages without Company's
         prior consent and DoubleClick shall not disclose to any third party
         any such information specifically pertaining to such users.  Except as
         expressly provided herein, DoubleClick shall not disclose any other
         statistical data regarding Company or the Web Site to any third party
         without the written permission of Company.  Except as expressly
         provided above, all of the foregoing information shall be maintained

    F.   DoubleClick and Company shall mutually determine the rate card charged
         to Advertisers for delivery of Banners to be delivered solely to
         Page(s) of the Web Site (except with respect to the December Banners)

         shall not enter into an Advertiser Contract with an Advertiser for the
         delivery of Banners to (i) the Page(s) of the Web Site and (ii) the
         Page(s) of at least one other web site which is linked to the Service
         without Company's permission and if Company so consents, DoubleClick
         shall determine the rate card (and any applicable discount) charged to
         said Advertiser for delivery of said Banners.  It is understood that
         the rate charged for specific buys made by an Advertiser will not be
         reviewed with Company.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
         contained herein, DoubleClick shall have the right, in its sole
         discretion, to provide Advertisers with bonus and/or make-good
         Impressions free of charge.

    G.   DoubleClick shall procure Banners for delivery to the Web Site.

    H.   DoubleClick agrees that the Service shall perform in accordance with

    I.   DoubleClick, for its own internal purposes, shall have a financial
         audit of (i) its books and records and (ii) its "Ad Management System"
         undertaken by KPMG or another "Big Six" accounting firm on an annual
         basis during the Term hereof.

    J.   DoubleClick shall keep accurate records and accounts in accordance
         with standard business practices in the on-line industry and generally
         accepted accounting principles.  Such records shall include, but are
         not limited to, the information relevant to the payment, and the
         calculations for such payments, to be made in accordance with Section
         III of this Agreement.  DoubleClick agrees that an independent
         certified public accountant shall, no more than three times per year,
         until the expiration of one year after final payment under this
         Agreement, have access to and the right, upon prior reasonable notice,
         to examine at DoubleClick's principal place of business during regular
         working hours any books, documents, papers, records or accounts of
         DoubleClick relating to the delivery of Banners pursuant to this
         Agreement and to the determination and calculation of the payments to
         be made to Company.  Company agrees to maintain all information
         obtained during such examinations in confidence and to cause its duly
         authorized representatives to do so as well.  Audits shall be at the
         expense of Company, unless an underpayment exceeding five percent (5%)
         of the amount paid for the period covered by the inspection is
         established in the course of any such inspection, whereupon all costs
         relating to such audit, together with the amount of such underpayment,
         shall be paid by Company.  If a deficiency is shown by such audit,
         DoubleClick shall immediately pay that deficiency plus interest
         thereon at annual rate equal to the prime rate of Citibank existing at
         the time of such audit plus 1.5% on any past due balance.  Non-payment
         of any deficiency for more than thirty (30) days after the date on
         which DoubleClick receives notice of such deficiency shall constitute
         a material breach of this Agreement.

    K.   Company hereby grants to DoubleClick a non-exclusive license to use
         Company's Marks as set forth in Appendix 3 attached hereto in
         connection with DoubleClick's placement and delivery of Banners and
         other advertising and promotions on the Pages pursuant to this
         Agreement, provided that any such use is approved in advance by
         Company.  DoubleClick's use shall be in accordance with Company's
         policies as set forth in Appendix 3 attached hereto regarding
         advertising and trademark usage as established from time to time by
         company.  DoubleClick agrees to cooperate with Company in facilitating
         Company's monitoring and control of the nature and quality of products
         and services bearing the Company Marks and to supply Company with
         specimens of DoubleClick's use of the Company's Marks, upon Company's
         reasonable request.  In the event that Company determines that
         DoubleClick's use of the Company Marks, or the service in connection
         which such Company Marks are used, is inconsistent with Company's
         quality standards, then upon Company's written request, DoubleClick
         shall within a reasonable period thereafter prospectively conform such
         use or service to Company's standards.  If DoubleClick fails to
         conforms such use or 


                                         -6-
<PAGE>

         service, Company shall have the right to suspend DoubleClick's
         non-conforming use of the Company Marks.

    L.   DoubleClick acknowledges that the Company Marks are trademarks and
         service marks of Company.  DoubleClick understands and agrees that the
         use of and Company Marks in connection with this Agreement shall not
         create any right, title or interest, in or to the use of the Company
         Marks and that all such use and goodwill associated with the Company
         Marks will inure to the benefit of Company.

    M.   Subject to the provisions of Section 5 of the Standard Terms and
         Conditions, Company and DoubleClick shall promptly after the effective
         date of this Agreement agree upon and issue a joint press release
         announcing in general terms the business arrangement between
         DoubleClick and Company, without disclosing payment terms, exclusivity
         or other terms and conditions in this Agreement.  Said press release
         shall be mutually agreed to by the parties hereto.

    N.   It is understood that DoubleClick will not deliver any Banners
         containing sexually explicit materials or which are linked to a
         sexually explicit web site.

VI. DECEMBER DELIVERY

    A.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, upon the
         execution of this Agreement, DoubleClick shall have the right to
         deliver up to One Hundred Million December Banner Impressions (the
         "December Banners") to the Web Site, which delivery shall commence on
         December 18, 1996 and shall continue through December 31, 1996 (the
         "December Delivery Period").

    B.   DoubleClick shall be entitled to (i) use any or all of the December
         Banners to advertise DoubleClick and the Service and/or (ii) resell
         any or all of the December Banners to any third parties which are
         approved in advance by Company, which approval shall not be
         unreasonably withheld.  Said approval or disapproval must be provided
         to DoubleClick within twenty-four (24) hours or the applicable third
         party will be deemed approved.  Company acknowledges that it
         anticipates approving any third parties other than (i) Internet Search
         Engines (other than Company) and (ii) third parties whose proposed
         December Banners are derogatory of or disparaging to Company.

    C.   In consideration for DoubleClick having the right to deliver any or
         all of the December Banners, DoubleClick shall pay Company, and
         Company agrees to accept an amount equal to     *      (the 
         "December Compensation"), payable sixty (60) days after December 31,
         1996.  Company shall not be entitled to any additional compensation 
         in connection with the placement, sale or resale of the December

         discretion, shall determine the rates charged to third parties in
         connection with the resale of the December Banners.

    D.   DoubleClick shall determine, in its sole discretion, when during the
         December Delivery Period it delivers the December Banners to the
         Pages, provided that (i) DoubleClick shall not deliver in excess of
         ten million (10,000,000) December Banners on any given day and (ii)
         DoubleClick shall provide Company with twenty-four (24) hours notice
         prior to the commencement of the delivery of the December Banners to
         the Web Site.  In the event Company is unable for any reason
         (including for failure to effect the necessary HTML programming, but
         excluding a failure resulting from the acts or omissions of
         DoubleClick) to receive or display a December Banner promptly
         following said twenty-four (24) hour period and notwithstanding
         Section 4 of the Standard Terms and Conditions, DoubleClick shall be
         entitled to deduct from the December Compensation an amount equal to
         $2.50/CPM for such non-received or non-displayed December Banners.

                              "TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS"

I. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TEST

    A.   Test Basics: Company shall have the right to conduct automated tests
         (the "Technical Specifications Tests") from its facility in San Mateo,
         California.  The Technical Specifications Test will consist of
         requests to DoubleClick from Company for the delivery 10,000 3K
         Banners.  The Technical Specifications Test will begin at 9 AM PST on
         random Wednesdays, with the first Technical Specifications Test to be
         held on January 29, 1997.  The Technical Specifications Test will be
         performed by a Unix C program provided by Company using up to four
         hundred (400) threads initially, and up to one thousand (1000) threads
         by January 29, 1998.  Company shall provide DoubleClick with one (1)
         hour notice prior to commencing any Technical Specifications Test.

         1.   RESPONSIVENESS:  Average Banner delivery latency under the
              Technical Specifications Test must be under 0.5 seconds for the
              "Responsiveness" element of the Technical Specifications Test
              results to be deemed satisfactory.

         2.   Failure Rate:  No more than 0.1 % of the 10,000 3K Banner
              delivery request under the Technical Specifications Test may fail
              for the "Failure Rate" element of the Technical Specifications
              Test results to be deemed satisfactory.

         3.   Capacity: The Service must be capable of delivering four hundred
              (400) Banners per second by January 29, 1997 and one thousand

              element of the Technical Specifications Test results to be deemed
              satisfactory.

B.  METHODOLOGY: Company represents and warrants that its facilities will not
    impede the successful completion of a Technical Specifications Test.  To
    avoid potential congestion of a particular route in the Technical
    Specifications Test, Company agrees, at DoubleClick's request, to source
    the test from two IP addresses such that the routes for each IP address to
    DoubleClick are distinct.  Company further agrees that it shall conduct all
    Technical Specifications Tests in good faith.

C.  UNSATISFACTORY TEST RESULTS: In the event the Technical Specifications Test
    is not deemed satisfactory pursuant to Sections I.A., I.B. and I.C. of this
    Appendix 2, DoubleClick will be promptly notified and Company shall repeat
    the Technical Specifications Test forty-eight (48) hours later (a "Repeat
    Test").  If the results of a Repeat Test are not deemed satisfactory
    pursuant to Sections I.A., I.B. and I.C. of this Appendix 2, DoubleClick
    will be promptly notified and Company shall perform an additional Repeat
    Test forty-eight (48) hours later.


                                         -15-
<PAGE>

D.  FORCE MAJEURE: No element of the Technical Specifications Test results,
    including, without limitation, the "Responsiveness" "Failure Rate" element
    and the "Capacity" element, shall be deemed unsatisfactory if events beyond
    the control of DoubleClick, including, without limitation, Internet
    brownouts, Web Site technical difficulties, acts of God, fire, earthquake,
    strike, civil commotion, war, terrorism, or act of government, prevent
    DoubleClick from satisfying said elements; provided, DoubleClick,
    immediately upon learning of such events, notifies Company of the
    impossibility of satisfying such element(s) and to the extent such events
    are within the reasonable control of DoubleClick, utilizes its best efforts
    to cure such events within twenty-four (24) hours of said notification of
    Company.

         control of DoubleClick, including, without limitation, Internet
         brownouts, Web Site technical difficulties, acts of God, fire,
         earthquake, strike, civil commotion, war, terrorism, or act of
