                                    Part II

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference
         ---------------------------------------

         The following documents previously filed by Penton Media, Inc. (the
"Registrant") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") are
incorporated herein by reference:

         (a)  the Registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 
              ended December 31, 1998; and

         (b)  the description of the Common Stock of the Registrant contained 
              in the Registration Statement on Form 8-A/A, as filed with the
              Commission on March 30, 1999, pursuant to the Securities Exchange
              Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") for purposes of registering such
              securities thereunder, as such Registration Statement may have
              been and may be amended from time to time.

         All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections
13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-
effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold
or which de-registers all securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be
incorporated herein by reference and to be part hereof from the date of filing
of such documents.

Item 4.  Description of Securities
         -------------------------

         Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
         --------------------------------------

         Not Applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers
         -----------------------------------------

         Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") 
contains provisions permitting (and, in some situations, requiring) Delaware
corporations such as the Registrant to provide indemnification to their officers
and directors for losses and litigation expense incurred in connection with,
among other things, their service to the corporation in those capacities. The
Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions requiring indemnification by
the Registrant of its directors, officers and employees to the fullest extent
permitted by law. Among other things, these provisions provide that the
Registrant is required to 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
(including any action by or in the right of the Registrant) (a "Proceeding") by
reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer or employee of the
Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant as a director,
officer or employee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or
other enterprise (including service with respect to any employee benefit plan)
against expenses (including 

<PAGE>
 
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, excise taxes under the Employee Retirement
Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, penalties and amounts paid in
settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such
Proceeding to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as the same exists or
may be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that
such amendment permits the Registrant to provide broader indemnification rights
than such law permitted the Registrant to provide prior to such amendment).
These provisions also provide for the advance payment of fees and expenses
reasonably incurred by the director, officer or employee in defense of any such
Proceeding, subject to reimbursement by the director, officer or employee if it
is ultimately determined that such director, officer or employee is not entitled
to be indemnified by the Registrant. The Registrant has entered into agreements
with its directors providing contractually for indemnification consistent with
the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws. In addition, the Certificate of
Incorporation authorizes the Registrant to purchase insurance for its directors,
officers and employees insuring them against certain risks as to which the
Registrant may be unable lawfully to indemnify them. The Registrant has obtained
this insurance coverage for its directors, officers and employees as well as
insurance coverage to reimburse the Registrant for potential costs of its
corporate indemnification of directors, officers and employees.


Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claims
         ----------------------------------

         Not Applicable.

Item 9.  Undertakings
         ------------

         (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

             (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
                 made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration 
                 Statement:

                 (i)    To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) 
                        of the Securities Act;

                 (ii)   To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising
                        after the effective date of the Registration Statement
                        (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof)
                        which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a

<PAGE>
 
                        fundamental change in the information set forth in the
                        Registration Statement;

                 (iii)  To include any material information with respect to the
                        plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
                        Registration Statement or any material change to such 
                        information in the Registration Statement;

             provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not
             -----------------                                                 
             apply if the information required to be included in a post-
             effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic
             reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section
             15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the
             Registration Statement.

             (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
                 Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment 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.

             (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective 
                 amendment any of the securities being registered which remain
                 unsold at the termination of the offering.

         (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
             determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of
             the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
             15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an
             employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of
             the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the
             Registration Statement 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 in
             the initial bona fide offering thereof.

         (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
             Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
             controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
             provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in
             the opinion of the 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, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
             counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
             submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question of
             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.

provided in paragraph 5(d), the number of shares of Common Stock which may be
issued upon the exercise of Options shall not exceed, in the aggregate, 100,000

are cancelled, terminated or forfeited in any manner without the issuance of
shares of Common Stock thereunder, such shares shall again be available under

               -------

          (a)    Provisions.
                 ---------- 

          (i)    Options shall not qualify as incentive stock options within the
meaning of Section 422 of the Code or any successor provision.

          (ii)   Options shall have such terms, not to exceed ten years from the
date of grant, as the Board of Directors shall determine at grant.

          (iii)  The Option price per share of Common Stock shall be 100% of the
Market Value on the date of grant and not less than the par value of a share of
Common Stock.

          (iv)   Options shall be exercisable at such time or times as the Board
of Directors shall determine at or subsequent to grant; provided that, except in
the event of death or disability of the Participant, no Option may be exercised
until the Eligible Director has served on the Board of Directors for at least
six months after it is awarded; further provided that an Option may be exercised
only during a period beginning on the third business day following the date of
release of the Company's quarterly or annual summary statement of sales and
earnings and ending on the fifteenth business day following such date; and
further provided that in the event of termination of service of a Participant as
a member of the Board of Directors for any reason (including without limitation
expiration of term without re-election, resignation, retirement, disability or
death), each Option granted to the Participant shall cease to be exercisable not
later than the fifth anniversary of the date of termination or, if earlier, on
the scheduled date of expiration of such Option.

          (b)    Exercise.  Shares shall be issued to a Participant pursuant to 
                 --------                                                       
the exercise of an Option only upon receipt by the Company from the Participant
of written notice of exercise, specifying the number of shares with respect to
which the Option is being exercised, accompanied by payment in full in cash
(including check, bank draft or money order) or, to the extent permitted by the
Board of Directors, by a single exchange of shares of Common Stock already owned
by the Participant for at least six months in an amount equal to the aggregate
Option price for the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option or portion
thereof being exercised or by a combination of such methods; provided that the
Board of Directors may permit the Participant to elect to pay such aggregate
Option price by authorizing a third party to sell the shares of Common Stock
acquired upon exercise (or a sufficient portion thereof) and thereafter remit to
the Company sale proceeds sufficient to pay such aggregate Option price and any
withholding or other tax resulting from exercise. The value of already owned
shares of Common Stock exchanged in full or partial payment for the shares
purchased upon the exercise of an Option shall be equal to the aggregate Market
Value of such already owned shares on the date of the exercise of such Option.

          (c)    Surrender.  If so provided by the Board of Directors at or
                 ---------

such terms and conditions, and for such consideration, as the Board of Directors
shall determine.

          (d)    Form.  The form of each Option (and of the documentation

Directors. Subject to the limitations of the Plan, the Board of Directors shall
have the sole and complete authority: (i) to select Participants, (ii) to award
Options in such forms and amounts as it shall determine, (iii) to impose such
limitations, restrictions and conditions upon such Options as it shall deem
appropriate, (iv) to interpret the Plan and to adopt, amend and rescind
administrative guidelines and other rules and regulations relating to the Plan,
(v) to correct any defect or omission or to reconcile any inconsistency in the
Plan or in any Options and (vi) to make all other determinations and to take all
other actions necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration
of the Plan.  The Board of Directors' determinations on matters within its
authority shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company and all other
persons. All expenses associated with the Plan shall be borne by the Company.
<PAGE>
 
          (b)    Non-Transferability.  Except as otherwise determined by the 
                 -------------------                                         
Board of Directors, no Option, and no interest therein, shall be transferable by
a Participant otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution,
and all Options shall be exercisable during a Participant's lifetime only by the
Participant or the Participant's legal representative. Any purported transfer
contrary to this provision will nullify the Option.

         (c)     Adjustment. The Board of Directors may make or provide for such
                 ----------

Options granted hereunder as the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion,
exercised in good faith, may determine is equitably required to prevent dilution
or enlargement of the rights of Participants that otherwise would result from
(a) any stock dividend, stock split, combination of shares, recapitalization or
other change in the capital structure of the Company, or (b) any merger,
consolidation, spin-off, split-off, spin-out, split-up, reorganization, partial
or complete liquidation or other distribution of assets, issuance of rights or
warrants to purchase securities, or (c) any other corporate transaction or event
having an effect similar to any of the foregoing.  Moreover, in the event of any
such transaction or event, the Board of Directors, in its discretion, may
provide in substitution for any or all outstanding awards under the Plan such
alternative consideration as it, in good faith, may determine to be equitable in
the circumstances and may require in connection therewith the surrender of all
awards so replaced.  The Board may also make or provide for such adjustments in
the numbers of shares specified in Section 3 of the Plan as the Board in its
sole discretion, exercised in good faith, may determine is appropriate to
reflect any transaction or event described in this Section 5(c).

         (d)     Tax Withholding.  The Board of Directors shall have the power
                 ---------------                                              
to withhold, or to require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount
sufficient to satisfy any withholding or other tax due with respect to the
Participant's exercise of an Option.  Subject to the consent of the Board of
Directors, a Participant may make an irrevocable election to have shares of
Common Stock otherwise issuable under an Option withheld, tender back to the
Company shares of Common Stock received pursuant to an Option or deliver to the
Company shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant having a Market
Value sufficient to satisfy all or part of the Participant's estimated tax
obligations associated with the transaction.  Such election must be made by a
Participant prior to the date on which the relevant tax obligation arises.  The
Board of Directors may disapprove of any election and may limit, suspend or
terminate the right to make such elections.

         (e)     Termination; Amendments.  The Board of Directors may terminate 
                 -----------------------                                        
the Plan at any time. The Board of Directors may amend the Plan at any time or
from time to time; provided that no such amendment shall be made without
stockholder approval to the extent such approval is required by law, regulation
or the rules of any exchange upon which the Common Stock is listed.

                 The Board of Directors may amend an outstanding Option in any 
manner to the extent that the Board of Directors would have had the authority
under the Plan to initially grant the Option as so amended.

                 No termination or amendment of the Plan or amendment of any
outstanding Option shall adversely affect any outstanding Option without the
consent of the Participant who holds it.

         (f)     Rights of Participants.  Nothing in the Plan shall confer on 
                 ----------------------                                       
any Eligible Director any right to continue to serve as a member of the Board of
Directors or affect in any way the right of the Company to terminate such
service at any time.  No Eligible Director shall have a right to be selected as
a Participant, or, having been so selected, to be selected again as a
Participant.

         (g)     Effective Date.  The effective date of the Plan shall be 
                 --------------
