INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

----------------------------------------
The following documents filed by 3Dshopping.com (the "Registrant") with the
Securities and Exchange Commission are incorporated herein by reference:
(a) The Registrant's latest annual report filed pursuant to Section
13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or the latest
prospectus filed pursuant to rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933

(c) The description of the authorized capital stock of the Registrant
contained in the Registrant's registration statement filed under Section 12

filed for the purpose of updating the description.
All reports and other documents subsequently filed by the Registrant
pursuant to Sections 13(a) and (c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which
indicates that all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters
all securities remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference
herein and to be a part hereof from the date of the filing of such reports and
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.
------------------------------------------
The California Corporations Code provides for the indemnification of
directors, officers, employees and agents of the Registrant under the
circumstances as set forth in section 317 thereof. Section 317 permits a
corporation to indemnify its agents, typically directors and officers, for
expenses incurred or settlements or judgments paid in connection with certain
legal proceedings.
II-1
<PAGE>
Only those legal proceedings arising out of such persons' actions as agents of
the corporation may be grounds for indemnification.
Whether or not indemnification may be paid in a particular case depends on
whether the agent wins, loses or settles the suit and upon whether a third party
or the corporation itself is the plaintiff. The section provides for mandatory
indemnification, no matter who the plaintiff is, when an agent is successful on
the merits of a suit. In all other cases, indemnification is permissive.
If the agent loses or settles a suit brought by a third party, he or she
may be indemnified for expenses incurred and settlements or judgments paid. Such
indemnification may be authorized upon a finding that the agent acted in good
faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests
of the corporation.
If the agent loses or settles a suit brought by or on behalf of the
corporation, his or her right to indemnification is more limited. If he or she
is adjudged liable to the corporation, the court in which such proceeding was
held must determine whether it would be fair and reasonable to indemnify him or
her for expenses which such court shall determine. If the agent settles such a
suit with court approval, he or she may be indemnified for expenses incurred
upon a finding that the agent acted in good faith and in a manner he or she
reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation and, in
addition, that he or she acted with the care, including reasonable inquiry, of
an ordinarily prudent person.
The indemnification discussed above may be authorized by a majority vote of
the disinterested directors or shareholders (the person to be indemnified is
excluded from voting his or her shares) or the court in which the proceeding was
brought. The Registrant's Board of Directors makes all decisions regarding the
indemnification of its officers and directors on a case-by-case basis.
Any provision in a corporation's articles of incorporation or bylaws or
contained in a shareholder or director resolution that indemnifies its officers
or directors must be consistent with section 317. Moreover, such a provision may
prohibit permissive, but not mandatory, indemnification as described above.
Last, a corporation has the power to purchase indemnity insurance for its agents
even if it would not have the power to indemnify them.
The Registrant's Articles of Incorporation authorize the Board of Directors
to provide indemnification of its agents through Bylaw provisions or
indemnification agreements, or both, in excess of the indemnification otherwise
permitted by section 317, subject to the limits on such excess indemnification
set forth in section 204 of the California Corporations Code.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers or persons controlling the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been
informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
II-2
<PAGE>
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act of 1933 and is therefore unenforceable.
The Registrant maintains insurance for the protection of its directors and
officers against any liability asserted against them in their official
capacities. The rights of indemnification described above are not exclusive of
any other rights of indemnification to which the persons indemnified may be
entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or directors or
otherwise.
Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed.

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 of 1933;
(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
II-3
<PAGE>
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent
a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration
statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of the
securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any
deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering
range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes
in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum
aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration
Fee" table in the effective 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 with or furnished
to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference
in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, 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 of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c) 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 foregoing provisions, 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
II-4
<PAGE>
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 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.
II-5

Venice, California 90291
We have acted as counsel for 3Dshopping.com (the "Registrant") in
connection with the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the
"Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering
1,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") of the Registrant issuable in
connection with the 1999 Stock Option Plan of the Registrant (the "Plan"). We
have reviewed the corporate actions of the Registrant in connection with this
matter and have examined those documents, corporate records, and other
instruments we deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion.
Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that:
1. The Registrant is a corporation duly organized and validly existing
under the laws of the state of California; and
2. The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued pursuant to the
Plan and in accordance with the resolutions adopted by the Board of
Directors of the Registrant, will be legally issued, fully paid, and
nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
STOEL RIVES LLP
