9. AMENDMENT TO SECTION 7.7 (TERMINATION ON CHANGE OF CONTROL). Section 7.7
is hereby amended only as follows: the term "Named Entity" shall be
replaced with the term "Interactive Service."
10. AMENDMENT TO ARTICLE IV OF EXHIBIT C (CONFIDENTIALITY). Article IV of
Exhibit C of the Agreement is amended to add the following text at the end
of such Article:
"ICP acknowledges and agrees that (x) any information about AOL's
relationship with ICP, including without limitation, the substance or
terms of the Agreement or the First Amendment, shall constitute
Confidential Information under this Agreement, (y) that ICP's
employees must comply with the provisions of this Article IV, and (z)
that any disclosure by ICP's employees of any information set forth in
clause (x) or any other Confidential Information, shall be deemed a
material breach of this Agreement by ICP with no right to cure.
Notwithstanding anything in the contrary in this Agreement or this
Article IV, ICP shall use best efforts to ensure that ICP's employees
to not disclose to any third party such Confidential Information."
11. ADDITION OF NEW EXHIBIT H. Attachment 1 to this First Amendment is hereby
added as a new Exhibit H to the Agreement.
12. CONTINUANCE OF AGREEMENT. Except as modified by this First Amendment, the
Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
13. STAY WAIVER
In consideration for AOL's willingness to enter into this Amendment and its
agreement to the restructuring contemplated thereby, ICP agrees that in the
event that, after the Amendment Effective Date, ICP becomes subject to any
bankruptcy or reorganization proceedings, and there is before or after the
commencement of such bankruptcy proceedings any default under the Agreement
or any event which under the terms of the Agreement would give AOL the
right to terminate the Agreement (or event which, with the passage of time
and/or the giving of notice would become a default or give rise to any
right to terminate the Agreement) by ICP under the Agreement (or under any
other agreement to which ICP and AOL are parties), ICP shall and hereby
does stipulate and agree to the modification of the automatic stay of 11
USC Section 362, and any other stay or injunction that may be in effect, so
as to enable AOL to exercise each and every one of its rights and remedies
under the Agreement, as amended hereby, including without limitation the
right to terminate the Agreement, and ICP hereby waives any right to or
benefit from any such stay or injunction. ICP agrees that it will not take
any position or seek any relief in any bankruptcy case that is in any
respect inconsistent with the foregoing agreements. ICP acknowledges that
the foregoing agreement is appropriate because, among other things, (a) ICP
is obtaining by virtue of the First Amendment the benefits of a
restructuring of its relationship with AOL and substantial relief from
financial obligations, and (c) it would be unfair and inequitable for ICP,
having received the material benefit of the restructuring reflected by this
Amendment, to then frustrate AOL's ability to exercise its rights and
remedies under the Agreement by means of a bankruptcy filing. This Section
13 is a material inducement to AOL to enter into this Amendment.
14. ASSUMPTION/REJECTION
ICP agrees that if it becomes subject to any proceedings under Title 11 of
the United States Code, it will (a) *** and (b) will not seek to assume the
Agreement without the express written consent of AOL. ICP acknowledges that
the Related Agreements are part of a single contractual arrangement, such
that it would be improper for ICP to seek to assume any of such Related
Agreements without assuming all of them at the same time. For purposes of
this section, the "Related Agreements" are the Agreement, as amended by
this First Amendment, the Stock Purchase Agreement and the Development and
Services Agreement by and between the Parties, effective as of July 1,
1999.

15. CHAPTER 11 PLAN
ICP agrees that if it becomes subject to any proceedings under Chapter 11
of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar or successor provision of state or
federal law, it will not propose a plan of reorganization or liquidation
that would alter in any way any of AOL's legal, contractual, or equitable
rights against ICP, whether under the Agreement or otherwise, without the
express consent of AOL.
16. [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED].
17. REPORTING REQUIREMENTS. ICP shall provide reports *** as requested by AOL.
In addition, on the first business day of each month following the First
Amendment Date, ICP shall complete and deliver to AOL a report, in a form
designated by AOL, ***. Each such report shall be certified as complete and
accurate by an officer of ICP.
18. PERSONAL SERVICES. The parties agree and acknowledge that AOL is entering
into the Agreement with ICP because of ICP's unique qualifications and
reputation and because of ***.
19. ADDITIONAL COVENANTS. ICP shall not incur any debt after the date of the
First Amendment Date without the consent of AOL, other than (a) ordinary
course of business trade credit, (b) debt incurred solely to purchase
assets to be used in connection with ICP's current business and which is
secured by such assets, (c) debt which is used to refinance existing debt
in an amount no greater than the existing debt and on terms no less
favorable to Koop than the existing debt, and (d) total unsecured debt not
covered by (a), (b) or (c) hereof of not greater than $100,000 outstanding
at any time.
20. COUNTERPARTS. This First Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of
which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall
constitute one and the same document.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have executed this First Amendment
as of the First Amendment Date.
