------------------------
xxxx://xxx.XxxxxXxx.xxx (the "Web Sites").
-----------------------
WHEREAS, the Representative is in the business of soliciting advertisers,
advertising agencies, and other (collectively "Advertisers") regarding the
placement of advertising on internet web sites for a fee and:
WHEREAS, both the Representative and the Client wish to enter into an
agreement where the Representative will sell advertising, namely, banners, game

WHEREAS, the Representative agrees and understands that the Client has
created a unique Internet Marketing method and game knows collectively as

WHEREAS, the Client has informed the Representative that the Client intends
to protect all of the Client's intellectual property including "FreeLotto"
(collectively, "Client Protected Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Representative acknowledges, understands and agrees that it
will not act as representative under any circumstances for any entity other than

Client's permission;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration for the mutual promises and covenants set
forth herein and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree
as follows:

however, in the event that the Client shall provide Representative with
such acceptance or rejection within three (3) business days from the day
the Representative has presented proposed Advertising or Insertion Order
to the Client; and the Client does not accept or reject such specific
Advertising order within such three (3) business days, the Client shall
be conclusively deemed to have accepted such Advertising and Client's
right of approval shall accordingly be terminated for such specific
Advertising order. In any event the Client may at its sole discretion,
decline, suspend or terminate any advertising order if the Advertiser
materially changes its Web Site or advertisement in such a way as to
become competitive to the Client's Web Sites, infringe upon the Client
Protected Property or in such a way to become offensive to the Client's
players, all as determined by Client in its sole discretion. It is

visible on the first Web Sites' Page viewed when that Page is viewed at
a 640 x 480 pixel (or better) resolution and otherwise comply with such
industry standards as may be applicable from time to time (it being

with Representative's logo on each Web Site's Home Page directing
potential advertisers to Representative's web site.

agrees that it is not the beneficial owner of any of the proceeds of the
Advertising payments beyond its [***]% ([***] percent) fee. In the event

Schedule A.
A1. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Paragraph 6 hereof, the
Client shall pay the Representative a fee of [***]% ([***] percent) of the net
Advertising revenue, including the Click2Win e-mail newsletters and a fee of
[***]% ([***] percent) of the net e-mail Advertising revenue, excluding the
Click2Win e-mails, sold by the Representative as agent for the Client, and
billed and collected on behalf of the Client, provided that the Representative's
commissions shall be reduced as set forth on Schedule A4 hereto with respect to
banner advertising sold at a rate of less than [***] cents per click. Net
Advertising revenue is defined as gross Advertising revenue less 15% (fifteen
percent) advertising agency discount, if any. It is understood that the Client
reserves the right to exchange advertising on its sites in exchange for
advertising on other sites, equity investment in other companies, or other non-
cash payments in kind, without compensation to the Representative. It is also
understood that the Representative will receive its full commission on any deal
it initiates and brings to the Client that involves generating revenues in cash
or in kind.
A2. Dedicated Sales Staff. For each $[***] per month in net billed
----------------------
Advertising revenue on the Client's Web Sites, The Representative shall employ
one account executive solely charged with the responsibility of selling the
Client's Advertising. Client and Representative shall cooperate so that by the
end of the second month from and after this Agreement, the Web Sites shall have
sufficient traffic so that Representative will be able to sell a minimum of
Thirty (30) million clicks per month at a maximum of Three (3) clicks per player
per day, and the Representative will be responsible for providing advertising to
support Thirty (30) million clicks per month. It is understood by the
Representative that the Client is rapidly growing its player base and that the
Representative is charged with the important responsibility of providing
advertising to support the increasing number of monthly "freebets" ("freebet" is
defined as a player entering a sweepstakes sponsored by the Client which
involves the picking of numbers from a grid of numbers and clicking on an
advertising banner or clicking a response to a question).
A3. Guarantees and Pricing: Representative guarantees to sell [***]% ([***]
----------------------
percent) of monthly (calendar) inventory based on 3 bets per unique user per day
as projected and outlined in Schedule B hereto as amended in writing to the
Representative from time to time by Client two months in advance at the average
monthly cost per click rate ("AMCPC") for the preceding month. The AMCPC will be
calculated from monthly market pricing conditions determined by an analysis of
buying rates achieved by a predetermined and mutually agreed upon list of 5
advertising agencies (Schedule C: To be mutually agreed upon within 2 weeks of
contract signing). If the Representative fails to sell at least [***]% ([***]
percent) of the projected "freebets" as outlined in Schedule B made by FreeLotto
players at the AMCPC for three (3) consecutive months, the Client will have the
right to terminate this Agreement upon notice to the. Representative. Clients
right to terminate this agreement will expire 5 (five) business days immediately
following Representative's failure to sell [***]% ([***] percent) of the
projected "freebets" as outlined in Schedule B made by FreeLotto players at the
AMCPC for three (3) consecutive months. Additionally, if the Representative
fails to sell at least [***]% ([***] percent) of the projected "freebets" as
outlined in Schedule B made by FreeLotto players at the AMCPC for three (3)
consecutive months, the Client shall be permitted to solicit additional
advertising through other sources without compensation to the Representative for
the unsold month's inventory (current month) as long as this inventory is not
resold. If at any time the Client decides to reduce the price of the unsold
inventory, the Representative shall be permitted to sell any or all of the
unsold inventory at this new "minimum commission price". The minimum commission
price is that price at which the Representative receives the lowest agreed
commission rate as set forth in Schedule A4. The Client will advise the
Representative of new pricing with five (5) business days written notice before
making the new price policy available to any advertiser. If sales or revenues
are lost due to failures in the ad delivery and e-mail systems, Client's right
to terminate this agreement will be negated during the month such failures occur
and the Representative will not be held responsible for failing to sell [***]%
of the inventory for the entire month.
