                       TECHNOLOGY COOPERATION AGREEMENT,
              INCLUDING AMENDMENT OF OEM/SOURCE LICENSE AGREEMENT


This Technology Cooperation Agreement, Including Amendment of the OEM/Source
License Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into and effective as of
December 6, 1995 (the "Effective Date") by and between MICROSOFT CORPORATION, a
Washington corporation located at One Microsoft Way, Redmond, WA  98052
("Microsoft") and SPYGLASS, INC., an Illinois corporation located at 1230 East
Diehl Road, Naperville, IL  60563("Spyglass").


                                    RECITALS

Microsoft and Spyglass have previously entered into an OEM/Source License
Agreement effective December 9, 1994, as amended by the parties in Amendment #1
effective September 26, 1995, regarding the license to and distribution by
Microsoft of Spyglass' and NCSA's Mosaic browser software and related
technology (collectively, the "OEM Agreement," a copy of which is attached to
this Agreement as Exhibit A).

Under Section 2.2(d) of the OEM Agreement, until December 31, 1996, Microsoft
is restricted from distributing certain versions of Spyglass' and NCSA's Mosaic
browser software, defined in the OEM Agreement as "Licensed Software," as a
separate, standalone browser product on platforms other than Windows 95,
defined in the OEM Agreement as a "Standalone Product."

Microsoft and Spyglass wish to amend the OEM Agreement to enable Microsoft to
distribute Standalone Product(s).

Microsoft and Spyglass further wish to agree upon a framework for cooperating
in the Internet client and server technology areas.

The parties hereby agree as follows:

               Software, shipped by Microsoft to licensees of the OEM Product
               to which the update relates, whether or not such OEM Product is
               a Standalone Product; and (iv) copies or the right to make
               copies of a

           Reseller which runs an on-line or Internet access service) paying
           for the copy of a Standalone Product (other than as a update for a
           previously licensed copy of a Standalone Product) for more than

                     Microsoft from such Reseller for Distribution of a
                     Reseller-labeled Standalone Product.  In the event that
                     Microsoft or a Microsoft Reseller Distributes a Standalone
                     for which the precise number of copies of Standalone
                     Product and/or the Net Receipts are indeterminate or
                     otherwise not clearly identifiable, Microsoft and Spyglass
                     shall negotiate in good faith the appropriate earned
                     royalty therefor.

              (iv)   No royalty shall be owed or paid with respect
                     to full packaged product sent to End Users which have
                     properly paid for their copies of the Standalone Product
                     obtained by Electronic Access.
            
              (v)    No royalty shall be owed or paid with respect to
                     Standalone Products used for demonstration purposes or
                     distributed for Microsoft's internal use and sale to
                     employee copies.

(b)   Payments & Reports.  Within forty five (45) days after the end of each
      calendar quarter with respect to which Microsoft owes Spyglass any
      royalties, Microsoft shall furnish Spyglass a statement together with
      **************************************** and shall contain information
      sufficient to discern how the royalty payment was computed.
      *********************** to date plus Microsoft's reserve against returns
      as described below.

      (1)     Reserve.  Microsoft shall be entitled to withhold from all
              royalty sums otherwise payable hereunder a reasonable reserve,
              made in good faith, against anticipated returns of copies of
              Standalone Products Distributed, which reserve shall not exceed
              fifteen percent (15%) of  all amounts due hereunder for the two
              (2) most recent calendar quarters, without adjustment for
              reserve, and which reserve shall be reviewed quarterly in light
              of the actual returns of the preceding two (2) quarters.  The
              excess (short-fall), if any, of such reserve balance at the time
              of such quarterly review over (under) the actual aggregate amount
              of returns for such period shall be credited to (debited against)
              the next payment due Spyglass hereunder.
              **************************

      (2)     Records.  Microsoft agrees to keep all proper records and books of
              account and all proper entries therein relating to the
              Distribution of copies of Standalone Products, and Microsoft's
              Net Receipts therefrom.

      (3)     Audit.  Spyglass may cause an audit to be made of Microsoft'
              applicable records in order to verify statements rendered
              hereunder.  Any such audit shall be at the expense of Spyglass
              unless such audit discloses an underpayment by Microsoft in
              excess of five percent (5%), in which case Microsoft shall
              reimburse Spyglass for such expenses; provided, however, than an
              underpayment shall only apply to the extent Microsoft owes
              Spyglass for earned royalties in excess of the
              ********************** due at the time of such audit.  Any such
              audit shall be conducted only by an independent certified public
              accountant (other than on a contingency fee basis) after prior
              written notice to Microsoft, and shall be conducted during
              regular business hours at Microsoft's offices and in such a
              manner as not to interfere with Microsoft's normal business
              activities.  In no event shall an audit with respect to any
              royalty statement commence later than eighteen (18) months from
              the date of the statement involved, nor shall the audits be made
              hereunder more frequently than once annually, nor shall the
              records supporting any statements be audited more than once.  The
              results of any such audit shall be subject to the nondisclosure
              obligations set forth in this Agreement.  In the event that
              Spyglass makes any claim against Microsoft with respect to such
              audit, Spyglass hereby agrees to make available to Microsoft,
              upon request, its records and reports pertaining to the audit and
              any such records and reports prepared for Spyglass by its
              accountant(s).

     (c)   Royalty Cap.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
           Agreement, the maximum amount of cumulative earned royalties,
           including Quarterly Fees, required to be paid by Microsoft in
           ********** of the Royalty Term shall not exceed ***** in each such
           year.  ***********************  Should Microsoft reach the *****
           royalty cap in the second or third year, no further royalties
           whatsoever (including further Quarterly Fees) shall be due or owed
           to Spyglass in that particular year of the Royalty Term.

     (d)   No Further Royalties.  Following the Royalty Period, no
           royalties whatsoever  shall be due or owed to Spyglass with respect
           to any distribution or Distribution of Standalone Products or for
           any other exercise of Microsoft's rights under the OEM Agreement.


1.4  OTHER TERMS.  Except as expressly amended by this Agreement, all other
     terms of the OEM Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.  In
     particular, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as altering or
     limiting the existing, royalty-free rights Microsoft has with respect to
     use and distribution of Licensed Software which would not be considered a
     Standalone Product as defined anew in this Agreement.

                      2.4(b)(2), the rights set forth in this Section 2.4(b)(1)

                      right to license such rights to further third parties.

                The foregoing license grants include a license under

                ownership of the underlying Microsoft Software, Spyglass shall
                own all right, title and interest in and to any Derivative
                Works of the Microsoft Software created by or for Spyglass.

         (4)    License Back to SSL/PCT and STT Toolkits.  Without
                further consideration, Spyglass hereby grants to Microsoft a

                license, rent, lease or otherwise distribute, and have
                reproduced, licensed, rented, leased or otherwise distributed,
                to and by third parties, source and/or object code versions of
                such Derivative Works of the SSL/PCT and/or STT Toolkits, and
                (iii) grant the rights set forth in this Section 2.4(b)(4) in
                such Derivative Works of the SSL/PCT and/or STT Toolkits to

                               PART III - GENERAL

3.    CONFIDENTIALITY

3.1   Each party shall protect the other's Confidential Information from
      unauthorized dissemination and use with the same degree of care that such
      party uses to protect its own like information.  Neither party will use
      the other's Confidential Information for purposes other than those
      necessary to directly further the purposes of this Agreement.  Neither
      party will disclose to third parties the other's Confidential Information
      without the prior written consent of the other party.  Except as
      expressly provided in this Agreement, no ownership or license rights is
      granted in any Confidential Information.

3.2   The parties' obligations of confidentiality under this Agreement shall
      not be construed to limit either party's right to independently develop
      or acquire products without use of the other party's Confidential
      Information.  Further, either party shall be free to use for any purpose
      the residuals resulting from access to or work with such Confidential
      Information, provided that such party shall maintain the confidentiality
      of the Confidential Information as provided herein.  The term "residuals"
      means information in non-tangible form, which may be retained by persons
      who have had access to the Confidential Information, including ideas,
      concepts, know-how or techniques contained therein.  Neither party shall
      have any obligation to limit or restrict the assignment of such persons
      or to pay royalties for any work resulting from the use of residuals.
      However, the foregoing shall not be deemed to grant to either party a
      license under the other party's copyrights or patents.


4.    WARRANTIES

4.1   Spyglass.  Spyglass warrants and represents that it has the full power
      to enter into this Agreement.  Since the Spyglass Client is considered

      power to enter into this Agreement.

      SOFTWARE, MICROSOFT BINARIES, MICROSOFT STANDARDS AND CONFIDENTIAL
      INFORMATION.


6.    INDEMNITY

6.1   Microsoft shall defend and indemnify Spyglass from and against any
      damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys'
      fees) arising out of any claim that the Microsoft Software and Microsoft
      Binaries infringe or violate any valid patent or copyright, or
      misappropriates a trade secret of a third party, provided that Spyglass
      shall:  (i) provide Microsoft reasonably prompt notice in writing of any
      such claim or action and permit Microsoft, through counsel mutually
      acceptable to Spyglass and Microsoft, to answer and defend such claim or
      action; and (ii) provide Microsoft information, assistance and authority,
      at Microsoft's expense, to help Microsoft to defend such claim or action. 
      Microsoft will not be responsible for any settlement made by Spyglass
      without Microsoft's written permission, which permission will not be
      unreasonably withheld.

6.2   Microsoft shall have no liability or obligation to Spyglass under this
      Section 6 with respect to any patent, copyright or trade secret
      infringement or claim thereof based upon (i) use or distribution of the
      Microsoft Software and/or Microsoft Binaries by Spyglass or its licensees

      modifications, alterations, enhancements or other Derivative Works of the
      Microsoft Products and/or Microsoft Binaries not created by or for
      Microsoft where such infringement or claim would not have occurred but

      of any such claim or action and permits Spyglass, through counsel
      mutually acceptable to Spyglass and Microsoft, to answer and defend such
      claim or action; and (ii) provides Spyglass information, assistance and
      authority, at Spyglass' expense, to help Spyglass to defend such claim or
      action.

6.3   This Section 6 states the entire liability of Microsoft with respect to
      infringement of patents, copyrights and trade secrets by the Microsoft
      Software and/or Microsoft Binaries or any part thereof.


7.    TERMINATION

7.1   Termination By Either Party For Cause.  Either party may suspend
      performance and/or terminate this Agreement in part immediately upon 
      written notice at any time if:

      (a)  The other party is in material breach of any material
           warranty, term, condition or covenant of this Agreement, other than
           those contained in Section 3, and fails to cure that breach within
           thirty (30) days after written notice thereof; or

      (b)  The other party is in material breach of Section 3.





                                                                  Page 11 of 16
<PAGE>   12




      Any termination shall specify whether it is a termination under Part I or
      Part II of this Agreement.  Termination under Part I of this Agreement
      shall not necessarily terminate the remainder of this Agreement, nor the
      OEM Agreement.  Failure by Microsoft to pay the royalties specified in
      Part I of this Agreement shall never be sufficient grounds for
      termination of the entire OEM Agreement or termination of the license
      grant under the OEM Agreement.  Similarly, failure by Microsoft to pay
      royalties under Part I of this Agreement shall not be grounds for
      termination of the license to distribute copies of Standalone Product
      under the OEM Agreement since such failure can be corrected by the
      payment of damages as agreed to by the parties under the dispute
      resolution procedures of Section 7.2 or a court of law.

7.2   Dispute Resolution.  Prior to any termination of any part of this
      Agreement or the OEM Agreement as amended by this Agreement, the parties
      shall submit any dispute to structured negotiation as follows:

      (a)  Coverage.  Other than actual or imminent material breaches of
           Section 8, any dispute between the parties with respect to this
           Agreement and OEM Agreement shall be submitted for structured
           negotiation.  The commencement, and any resolution reached as a
           result, of any dispute resolution under this Section 7.2 shall be
           considered Confidential Information and protected under Section 3.

      (b)  Structured Negotiation.  Either party may invoke this
           procedure by giving written notice to the other party designating a
           corporate officer with appropriate authority to be its
           representative in negotiations relating to the dispute.  Upon
           receipt of such notice, the other party shall, within five (5)
           business days, designate a corporate officer with similar authority
           to be its representative.  The designated officers shall, following
           whatever investigation each deems appropriate, but no event later
           than twenty (20) business days after the original notice, enter into
           discussions concerning the dispute.  If within an additional thirty
           (30) business days of their initial meeting, the representatives do
           not resolve the dispute, either party take whatever steps it deems
           necessary, at law or in equity, to protect its rights under the
           Agreement and/or the OEM Agreement.

7.3   Effect of Termination on Agreement.  Neither party shall be liable to the
      other for damages of any sort resulting solely from terminating this 
      Agreement in accordance with its terms.

7.3   Survival.  In the event of termination or expiration of this Agreement
      for any reason, Sections 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 3, 5, 6, 8 and 9  shall survive
      termination.  Unless this Agreement is terminated for Microsoft's
      material breach of Section 1.3, any source license to the Spyglass Client
      granted, pursuant to the terms and conditions of Section 2.3(b)(2), under
      the OEM Agreement shall also survive termination. Unless this Agreement
      is terminated for Spyglass' material breach of such license grants and/or
      Section 3 with respect to the software in such license grants, Sections
      2.4(b), 2.4(e) and 2.4(f) shall survive any termination of this
      Agreement.


8.    LIMITATION OF LIABILITIES

IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, SPECIAL OR OTHER DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS
OF BUSINESS INFORMATION, AND THE LIKE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE MICROSOFT SOFTWARE, THE
MICROSOFT BINARIES, THE LICENSED SOFTWARE, THE SPYGLASS CLIENT, THE MICROSOFT
STANDARDS, OR EITHER PARTY'S CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, EVEN IF A PARTY HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.





                                                                   Page 12 of 16
<PAGE>   13

EXCEPT AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT CONSTITUTING DIRECT DAMAGES OF SPYGLASS
INDEMNIFIED UNDER SECTION 6, IN NO EVENT SHALL MICROSOFT BE LIABLE TO SPYGLASS'
OEMS, LICENSEES, RESELLERS, DISTRIBUTORS AND END USERS OF THE MICROSOFT
SOFTWARE AND MICROSOFT BINARIES FOR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER.

      venture between the parties.

9.3   Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the

      Agreement, Spyglass may only file its action in the state and/or federal
      courts sitting in the State of Washington.  Should, after dispute
      resolution fails under Section 7.2, Microsoft bring a cause of action
      arising out of or related to this Agreement, Microsoft may only file its

      the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect. 
      Failure by either party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will
      not be deemed a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other
      provision.  This Agreement has been negotiated by the parties and their
      respective counsel and will be interpreted fairly in accordance with its
      terms and without any strict construction in favor of or against either
