   This Amendment No. 5 (this "Amendment") amends and supplements the Tender
Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed by CB Acquisition Corp., a Delaware
corporation ("Purchaser") and Career Holdings, Inc. a Delaware corporation
("Career Holdings"), on July 25, 2000 as amended by Amendments No. 1, 2, 3 and
4 thereto (as amended, the "Schedule TO"), relating to the offer to purchase
all issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share
("Common Stock") of CareerBuilder, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Company"),
upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase
dated July 25, 2000 (the "Offer to Purchase") and in the related Letter of
Transmittal (which, together with the Offer to Purchase, as supplemented or
amended from time to time, constitute the "Offer"). Capitalized terms used but
not defined herein have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to
Purchase.

Item 4 ("Terms of the Transaction"); Item 11 ("Additional Information"); Item
13 ("Information Required by Schedule 13E-3").

   Items 4, 11 and 13 of the Schedule TO are hereby amended and supplemented as
follows:

   The thirteenth paragraph under the subsection titled "Background of the
Offer; Contacts with CareerBuilder" to Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase
("Special Factors") is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following
thereto:

     "Following the meeting, Mr. McGovern contacted the representative of the
  unaffiliated investment bank and advised him that CareerBuilder was not
  interested in pursuing the expression of interest at that time. No
  additional steps were taken to explore that expression of interest."

   The paragraph under the subsection titled "Recommendation of the Independent
Committee and the CareerBuilder Board; Fairness of the Transaction" under
Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase ("Special Factors") is hereby amended and
supplemented by adding the following thereto:

     "In particular, CareerBuilder believes that the Offer and the Merger are
  advisable, fair and in the best interests of the CareerBuilder stockholders
  who are unaffiliated with the proposed acquirors."

   The eleventh numbered paragraph under the subsection titled "Independent
Committee" under Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase ("Special Factors") is
hereby amended to state in its entirety the following:

     "(11) Possible Decline in Market Price of Common Stock. The Independent
  Committee also considered the potential benefits and risks of remaining an
  independent public company. The Independent Committee considered the
  possibility that if a merger transaction with Career Holdings were not
  negotiated, it is possible that because of a decline in the market price of
  the Shares or the stock market in general, the price that might be received
  by the holders of the Shares in the open market or in a future transaction
  might be less than the $8.00 per Share price to be received by stockholders
  in connection with the Offer and the proposed Merger."

   The second paragraph under the subsection titled "Board of Directors of
CareerBuilder" under Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase ("Special Factors") is
hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto:

     "Except as set forth in the factors described above, neither the
  Independent Committee nor the Board of Directors considered negative
  factors relating to the proposed transaction."

   The subsection titled "Position of Career Holdings and Purchaser Regarding
Fairness of the Offer and the Merger" under Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase
("Special Factors") is hereby amended to state in its entirety the following:

     "Position of Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com,
  Robert J. McGovern and James A. Winchester Regarding Fairness of the Offer
  and the Merger.

                                       1
<PAGE>

     Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern
  and James Winchester believe that the consideration to be received by
  CareerBuilder's stockholders pursuant to the Offer and the Merger is fair
  to and in the best interests of CareerBuilder's stockholders. Career
  Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern and James
  Winchester base their belief on the following factors: (i) the conclusions
  and recommendations of the Independent Committee and the CareerBuilder
  Board that the Merger is advisable, fair and in the best interests of
  CareerBuilder's stockholders, (ii) the fact that the Offer and the Merger
  and the other terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement were the result
  of arm's length, good faith negotiations between the Independent Committee
  and Career Holdings and their respective advisors, (iii) the fact that the
  Independent Committee received an opinion from Credit Suisse First Boston
  that, as of July 16, 2000 and based upon and subject to certain assumptions
  and matters set forth in the opinion, the Offer Price and the Merger
  Consideration to be received by the holders of Shares in the Offer and the
  Merger are fair, from a financial point of view, to holders of Shares
  (other than Career Holdings and its affiliates and Robert J. McGovern and
  James A. Winchester), (iv) the fact that the consideration to be paid in
  the Offer represents a premium of approximately 93.9% over the reported
  closing sale price on the last full trading day prior to the announcement
  of the proposed transaction and a premium in excess of 134% over the 30-
  trading day average closing sale price for the period prior to announcement
  of the proposed transaction, and (v) the Offer and the Merger will each
  provide consideration to the stockholders entirely in cash.

     Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern
  and James Winchester did not find it practicable to assign, nor did they
  assign, relative weights to the individual factors considered in reaching
  its conclusion as to fairness.

     The foregoing discussion of the information and factors considered and
  given weight by Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com,
  Robert McGovern and James Winchester is not intended to be exhaustive but
  is believed to include all material factors considered by Career Holdings,
  Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern and James Winchester.

     Career Holdings believes that the Offer and the Merger are advisable,
  fair and in the best interests of the CareerBuilder stockholders who are
  unaffiliated with the proposed acquirors."

   The subsection titled "Purpose and Structure of the Offer and the Merger;
Reasons of Career Holdings for the Offer and the Merger" under Section 1 of the
Offer to Purchase ("Special Factors") is hereby amended to state in its
entirety the following:

     "Purpose and Structure of the Offer and the Merger; Reasons of Career
  Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert J. McGovern and
  James A. Winchester for the Offer and the Merger.

     The purpose of Career Holdings, Tribune and KnightRidder.com in
  undertaking the Offer and the Merger is for Career Holdings and its
  subsidiaries to acquire all of the outstanding Shares. Upon the
  consummation of the Merger, CareerBuilder will become a wholly owned
  subsidiary of Career Holdings. The acquisition of Shares has been
  structured as a cash tender offer followed by a cash merger to effect a
  prompt and orderly transfer of ownership of CareerBuilder from the public
  stockholders to Career Holdings and provide stockholders with cash for all
  of their Shares. Robert McGovern's and James Winchester's purpose for
  engaging in the transaction is to allow the purchase of CareerBuilder by
  Career Holdings.

     Proceeding with the Offer and the Merger at this time would also, in the
  view of Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert
  McGovern and James Winchester, afford CareerBuilder's stockholders an
  opportunity to dispose of their Shares at a premium over market prices.

     Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern
  and James Winchester have concluded that the Offer and the Merger,
  including the Offer Price to be received by stockholders of CareerBuilder,
  are fair to the holders of the Shares (other than Messrs. McGovern and
  Winchester) based upon the factors described above under "Position of
  Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert J. McGovern
  and James A. Winchester Regarding Fairness of the Offer and the Merger"."

   The first paragraph under the subsection titled "Plans for CareerBuilder
After the Offer and the Merger" under Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase
("Special Factors") is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following
thereto:

     "As a result of the consummation of the Offer and the Merger,
  CareerBuilder will no longer be a publicly-held company, but will instead
  be a private company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Career Holdings. The
  current stockholders of CareerBuilder will no longer have any equity
  interest in CareerBuilder; however, Robert McGovern and James Winchester
  will have an indirect interest in CareerBuilder as a result of their equity
  interest in Career Holdings. See "Special Factors--The Employment
  Agreements" and "Special Factors--Interests of Certain Persons in the Offer
  and in the Merger."

   The second paragraph under the subsection titled "Plans for CareerBuilder
After the Offer and the Merger" under Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase
("Special Factors") is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following
after the third sentence thereto:

     "The CareerPath Merger will occur after the CareerBuilder Merger.
  CareerPath is a private company that is currently owned by Tribune, Knight-
  Ridder.com, The New York Times Company, The Washington Post Company, Cox
  Newspapers, Inc., Gannett CP, Inc. and the Hearst Corporation. The
  CareerPath Merger is being effected so that CareerPath and CareerBuilder
  will be under common ownership by Career Holdings, with Tribune,
  KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern and James Winchester, indirectly owning
  the entire interest in both companies. Career Holdings, Tribune and
  KnightRidder.com believe that this ownership structure will simplify and
  streamline both businesses' operations and allow for more efficient
  management."

   The subsection titled "Transactions and Arrangements Concerning the Shares"
under Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase ("Special Factors") is hereby amended
to state in its entirety the following:

     "Transactions and Arrangements Concerning the Shares.

  KnightRidder.com's, Robert McGovern's and James Winchester's knowledge, no

  is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following thereto:

       "In particular, CareerBuilder believes that the Offer and the Merger
    are advisable, fair and in the best interests of the CareerBuilder
    stockholders who are unaffiliated with the proposed acquirors."

   The subsection titled "Purpose and Structure of the Offer and the Merger;
Reasons of Career Holdings for the Offer and the Merger" under Section 1 of the
Offer to Purchase ("Special Factors") is hereby amended to state in its
entirety the following:

     "Purpose and Structure of the Offer and the Merger; Reasons of Career
  Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert J. McGovern and
  James A. Winchester for the Offer and the Merger.

     The purpose of Career Holdings, Tribune and KnightRidder.com in
  undertaking the Offer and the Merger is for Career Holdings and its
  subsidiaries to acquire all of the outstanding Shares. Upon the
  consummation of the Merger, CareerBuilder will become a wholly owned
  subsidiary of Career Holdings. The acquisition of Shares has been
  structured as a cash tender offer followed by a cash merger to effect a
  prompt and orderly transfer of ownership of CareerBuilder from the public
  stockholders to Career Holdings and provide stockholders with cash for all
  of their Shares. Robert McGovern's and James Winchester's purpose for
  engaging in the transaction is to allow the purchase of CareerBuilder by
  Career Holdings.

     Proceeding with the Offer and the Merger at this time would also, in the
  view of Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert
  McGovern and James Winchester, afford CareerBuilder's stockholders an
  opportunity to dispose of their Shares at a premium over market prices.

     Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern
  and James Winchester have concluded that the Offer and the Merger,
  including the Offer Price to be received by stockholders of CareerBuilder,
  are fair to the holders of the Shares (other than Messrs. McGovern and
  Winchester) based upon the factors described above under "Position of
  Career Holdings, Purchaser, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern and
  James Winchester Regarding Fairness of the Offer and the Merger."

   The first paragraph under the subsection titled "Plans for CareerBuilder
After the Offer and the Merger" under Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase
("Special Factors") is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following
thereto:

     "As a result of the consummation of the Offer and the Merger,
  CareerBuilder will no longer be a publicly-held company, but will instead
  be a private company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Career Holdings. The
  current stockholders of CareerBuilder will no longer have any equity
  interest in CareerBuilder; however, Robert McGovern and James Winchester
  will have an indirect interest in CareerBuilder as a result of their equity
  interest in Career Holdings. See "Special Factors--The Employment
  Agreements" and "Special Factors--Interests of Certain Persons in the Offer
  and in the Merger."

   The second paragraph under the subsection titled "Plans for CareerBuilder
After the Offer and the Merger" under Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase
("Special Factors") is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following
after the third sentence thereto:

     "The CareerPath Merger will occur after the CareerBuilder Merger.
  CareerPath is a private company that is currently owned by Tribune, Knight-
  Ridder.com, The New York Times Company, The Washington Post Company, Cox
  Newspapers, Inc., Gannett CP, Inc. and the Hearst Corporation. The
  CareerPath Merger is being effected so that CareerPath and CareerBuilder
  will be under common ownership by Career Holdings, with Tribune,
  KnightRidder.com, Robert McGovern and James Winchester, indirectly owning
  the entire interest in both companies. Career Holdings, Tribune and
  KnightRidder.com believe that this ownership structure will simplify and
  streamline both businesses' operations and allow for more efficient
  management."

Item 8 ("Interest in Securities of the Subject Company").

   Item 8 of the Schedule TO is amended and supplemented as follows:

      (a) The title of Section 10 of the Offer to Purchase ("Certain
  Information Concerning Career Holdings and CB Acquisition Corp.") is hereby
  amended to state in its entirety the following:

       "10. Certain Information Concerning Career Holdings, CB Acquisition
    Corp., Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert J. McGovern and James A.
    Winchester."

   The second paragraph under Section 10 of the Offer to Purchase ("Certain
Information Concerning Career Holdings, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert J.
McGovern and James A. Winchester") is hereby amended and supplemented by adding
the following after the second sentence thereto:

     "The CareerPath Merger is expected to be consummated after the
  CareerBuilder Merger."

   The fifth paragraph under Section 10 of the Offer to Purchase ("Certain
Information Concerning Career Holdings, Tribune, KnightRidder.com, Robert J.
McGovern and James A. Winchester") is hereby amended to state in its entirety
the following:

     "The name, citizenship, business address, business telephone number,
  principal occupation or employment and five-year business history of each
  of the directors and executive officers of Career Holdings, Purchaser,
  Tribune and KnightRidder.com and of each of Robert McGovern and James
  Winchester are described in Schedule I hereto."
