Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

   Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court to
award, or a corporation's board of directors to grant, indemnity to directors
and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under
certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses
incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act").

   As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant's
Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal
liability of its directors for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty
as a director, except for liability:

    . for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Registrant or
      its stockholders,

    . for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional
      misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

    . under section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (regarding
      unlawful dividends and stock purchases); or

    . for any transaction from which the director derived an improper
      personal benefit.

   As permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Registrant's
Bylaws provide that:

    . the Registrant is required to indemnify its directors and officers to
      the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law,
      subject to certain very limited exceptions;

    . the Registrant may indemnify its other employees and agents as set
      forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law;

    . the Registrant is required to advance expenses, as incurred, to its
      directors and officers in connection with a legal proceeding to the
      fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law,
      subject to certain very limited exceptions; and

    . the rights conferred in the Bylaws are not exclusive.

                                     II-1
<PAGE>

   The Registrant intends to enter into Indemnification Agreements with each
of its current directors and officers to give such directors and officers
additional contractual assurances regarding the scope of the indemnification
set forth in the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation and to provide
additional procedural protections. At present, there is no pending litigation
or proceeding involving a director, officer or employee of the Registrant
regarding which indemnification is sought, nor is the Registrant aware of any
threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification.

   Reference is also made to Section of the Underwriting Agreement, which
provides for the indemnification of officers, directors and controlling
persons of the Registrant against certain liabilities. The indemnification
provision in the Registrant's Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and the
Indemnity Agreements entered into between the Registrant and each of its
directors and officers may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of
the Registrant's directors and officers for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act.

   The Registrant maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance and
expects to obtain a rider to such coverage for securities matters.

   See also the undertakings set out in response to Item 17.

   Reference is made to the following documents filed as exhibits to this
Registration Statement regarding relevant indemnification provisions described
above and elsewhere herein:

Item 17. Undertakings.

   The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the Underwriters
at the closing specified in the Underwriting Agreement certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the Underwriters to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

   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 provisions described under Item 14 above, 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 Securities 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 whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities 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 Securities 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 Securities
  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.

                      [CONFIDENTIAL TREATEMENT REQUESTED]


             [LETTERHEAD OF NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS(TM)]




                                             May 17, 1999

  Stuart Wolff
  Chairman & CEO
  RealSelect, Inc.
  225 West Hillcrest Drive/Suite 100
  Thousand Oaks, CA  91360

  Dear Stuart:

  The purpose of this letter is to set forth the terms and conditions upon which
  the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS(R) (NAR) and its wholly-owned subsidiary,
  REALTORS(R) Information Network, Inc. (RIN) are willing to consent to the
  acquisition, management and operation by RealSelect of as Internet site that
  displays information pertaining to the rental of real property ("Rental
  Site").

  1. The Rental Site will be controlled by RealSelect and not by its parent
     corporation.

  2. The site initially may operate with two Internet URL addresses, one being
     the URL currently used by the acquired company and the second being a
     REALTOR(R) branded URL to be agreed upon by Real/Select and NAR and to be
     owned by NAR. RealSelect agrees to use only the REALTORS(R) branded URL as
     soon as it is commercially reasonable, but in no event more than
     *              * after the acquisition of the Rental Site, provided,
      ______________
     however, that if at-the end of the *       * period following acquisition
                                         _______
     of the Rental Site, (i) RealSelect can demonstrate that it has used
     commercially reasonable efforts to move all of the content to the
     REALTOR(R) branded URL but in spite of such efforts RealSelect will
     experience *              * or more of the total content on the Rental
                 ______________
     Site by using only the REALTOR(R) branded URL, or (ii) in response to an
     official action of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS(R), an organization
     representing property managers takes an official action to discourage its
     members from advertising rental properties on the REALTOR(R) branded URL
     and RealSelect can demonstrate that in spite of exercising commercially
     reasonable efforts, it will experience *           * or more of the total
                                             ___________
     content on the Rental Site by using only the REALTOR(R) branded URL, then
     RealSelect may continue to use both Internet URL addresses for an
     additional*               * period, after which time RealSelect must use
                _______________
     only the REALTOR(R) branded-URL.

  3. A hypertext link shall be established from the Rental Site to REALTOR.com
     after RealSelect receives the express written consent of NAR or when
     RealSelect commences using only the REALTOR branded URL, whichever comes
     first, provided, however, that no link to REALTOR.com shall be established
     or maintained if information on the Rental Site in any way disparages
     REALTORS or NAR or discourages the use of the real estate professionals in
     the process of seeking housing.  A link may be established from the non-
     Realtor branded Internet URL address, at NAR's sole discretion.

                                                                        Page 2


  4. A hypertext link shall be established from REALTOR.com to the Rental Site
     after RealSelect receives the express written consent of NAR or when
     RealSelect commences using only the REALTOR branded URL, whichever comes
     first, provided, however, that no link from REALTOR.com shall be
     established and maintained if information on the Rental Site in any way
     disparages REALTORS or NAR or discourages the use of real estate
     professionals in the process of seeking housing.  A link may be established
     from REALTOR.com to the non-Realtor branded Internet URL address, at NAR's
     sole discretion.

  5. Any *                                                                     *
          ______________________________________________________________________
     which appear on the Rental Site must be listed for rent with REALTORS(R) or
     listed for rent in a Realtor controlled multiple listing service ("Realtor
     Listings"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, RealSelect may display on the
     Rental Site *                                          * in a praticulat
                   _________________________________________
     geographic area that are listed with real estate licensees who are not
     Realtors ("Non-member Ads") if (i) RealSelect provides objective market
     data acceptable to RIN which demonstrates that in either a given MSA or
     jurisdiction of a Realtor controlled multiple listing service fewer than
     *                *of such properties that are listed for rent are Realtor
      ________________
     Listings ("Exceptions Market"). RIN shall advise RealSelect within five
     business days after receipt of the market data whether RIN accepts or
     challenges the market data. RealSelect must cease accepting or renewing
     Non-member Ads once Realtor Listings in the Exceptions Market exceed
     *                  *and (ii) RealSelect establishes and maintains
      __________________
     commercially reasonable-price differentials for home pages, enhanced
     property ads and other Internet advertising such that the price
     differential will *                                                      *
                        ______________________________________________________

  6. Except as otherwise provided herein, RealSelect agrees to operate the
     Rental Site in a manner consistent with the terms of paragraphs 1.1,
     2.1(b), 3.4, 5.2(b), 5.3(a), 5.7(a), 5.7(c), 5.7(d), 5.7(g), 6.4, 7.2,
     8.1(b) and 9.2 of the Operating Agreement dated as of November 26, 1996,
     between RealSelect and RIN, as amended from time to time ("Operating
     Agreement"), except that RIN and NAR agree that Section 5.3(a) of the
     Operating Agreement shall not apply until six months after the acquisition
     of the Rental Site and further that ads for apartment building rentals may
     appear on the Rental Site even if those rentals are not listed with
     REALTORS(R).  No properties that are for sale may appear on the Rental Site
     for the duration of the Operating Agreement and for two years thereafter.
     Except for paragraphs 1.1, 2.1(b), 3.4, 5.7(a), 5.7(c), 6.4, 7.2 and 9.2 of
     the Operating Agreement, all sections referred to in this paragraph 6 shall
     refer only to properties listed for rent with Realtors or listed for rent
     in a Realtor controlled multiple listing service.

  7. RealSelect agrees to use its best efforts to assure that the performance of
     its obligations for the Rental Site will have no impact on the quality or
     timeliness of the performance of its duties and obligations under the
     Operating Agreement.

  8. Best pricing or discounts will be provided by RealSelect to REALTORS(R) for

    *                                                                          *
     __________________________________________________________________________
     for like services or products on the Rental Site, with the amount of such
     pricing or discounts to be negotiated in good faith by RealSelect and NAR.

  9. RealSelect agrees to pay Data Content Providers and RIN revenues from the
     Rental Site as provided for in Section 6.4(a) of the Operating Agreement,
     as amended from time to time, in accordance with the formula specified for
     "Calendar Year 2000 and thereafter"; provided, however, that the percentage
     to be paid to Data Contents Providers (in the aggregate) shall be
     multiplied by the percentage of the Rental Site's total content that is
     supplied by Data Content Providers.

this exhibit. Confidential portions have been omitted from the public filing and

  10. Upon termination of this agreement, RealSelect shall cease all use of the
      Realtor(R) branded URL.  In the event that this agreement is terminated by
      RealSelect due to a breach by NAR, NAR agrees that it will cease use of
      the REALTOR(R) branded URL.  If this agreement terminates for reasons
      other than a breach by NAR, RealSelect acknowledges that NAR may continue
      use of the REALTOR(R) branded URL.  Additionally, upon termination
      RealSelect agrees promptly to transfer to NAR all content on the Rental
      Site that was provided by REALTOR(R) multiple listing services.

Sincerely,
