Page 3.
WHEREAS
The Parties executed a non binding Merger Agreement on 29 November 1998 (amended
by a letter-amendment dated 22 January 1999) providing for the Parties to
combine their Media Business into one entity which would either directly or
through subsidiaries undertake in the long term all the Media Business
activities of HA Group and MP Group and jointly develop the combined entity.
NOW THEREFORE THE PARTIES HAVE HEREBY AGREED AS FOLLOWS
Definitions:
------------
Capitalized terms herein have the meaning ascribed to them in the Merger
Agreement save for the terms defined in this Agreement.
Article 1 - Focus
-----------------
HA has advised the MP Shareholders of its discussions regarding a possible
purchase of Focus in the USA.
HA undertakes to consult and obtain the prior approval of the MP Shareholders
regarding such an acquisition process between the date of this Agreement and the
Merger Date.
Article 2 - Sopec
-----------------
MP Shareholders have advised HA of the discussions regarding a possible purchase
of Sopec by Media Planning.
The MP Shareholders undertake to consult and obtain the prior approval of HA
regarding such an acquisition process between the date of this Agreement and the
Merger Date.
Article 3 - Costs of the transaction
------------------------------------
The Parties agree that the costs of external advisors related to the Merger will
not be taken into account for the purpose of EBITDA calculation under the Merger
Agreement (even if paid and/or accounted for in 1998).
The Parties undertake to cause New MP to pay (i) all external advisors costs
incurred by the MP Shareholders in connection with the Merger (the ((Media
Planning Costs ))) and (ii) costs incurred by HA in connection with the Merger
up to an amount equal to 9/11 of the Media Planning Costs. HA will bear the
costs incurred by HA in connection with the Merger above said amount.
All taxes, costs and expenses arising out of any reorganization made by HA or
the MP Shareholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement shall be paid by the
relevant party.
Page 4.
Article 4 - SFM
---------------
4.1 SFM earn out
As provided in Article 1.2.2(a)(viii) of the Merger Agreement, HA is in the
process of negotiating the termination of the current earn out arrangements
with SFM's senior management. However, if such negotiation is not
successfully completed on the Merger Date, the Parties undertake to cause
the New MP management to manage SFM, after the Merger Date, in the ordinary
course of business so that the basis for the earn out calculation is not
artificially modified after the Merger Date.
4.2 Commission on MVBMS' clients
SFM currently receives commissions on the total net amount of media
purchases made on behalf of MVBMS' clients (on average over the 1998 fiscal
year, at the rate of 0.90%). The parties agree that such commission is
below market standards and could be taken into account, for the sole
purpose of Article 12 below, in the 1998 SFM accounts for a proforma amount
calculated on the basis of a maximum 1.1% commission for the full 1998
fiscal year.
Article 5 - Ruling and other matters
------------------------------------
5.1 Holding Structure
The Parties agree that, due to the holding structure, the valuation of HA's
contribution under the Merger Agreement, for the sole purpose of
determining such valuations as per Article 1.4 of the Merger Agreement,
shall be increased to 4.6 million Euros.
5.2 Ruling from the French Tax Authorities
The contribution of its Media Business by HA requires an approval from the
French Tax Authorities (Service de la legislation fiscale, SLF ) in
order to be made free of capital gains tax.
The Parties agree to make their best efforts to obtain the required
approvals from the SLF before 15 June 1999 and shall act jointly with the
Cabinet Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx in this respect. Should the SLF not have given
the required approvals by the Merger Date, the Parties shall take all
reasonable steps conforming all applicable tax regulations to minimize HA's
tax exposure as a result of the contribution and the Merger Date may be
postponed without indemnity up to 30 September 1999 at the latest.
The Parties undertake to comply with the requirements imposed by the SLF
(if any).
Page 5.
5.3 UK
From the Merger Date to the 6/th/ anniversary of the Merger Date, the MP
Shareholders shall cause any relevant company, representative, employee,
manager and officer of the New MP group not to take any action on behalf
of, or relating to the sharecapital of, Euro RSCG Limited except as
explicitly required by law or as reasonably requested for tax reasons by HA
(provided that such company remains a dormant company and that the request
does not imply a cost for New MP).
Article 6 - Non-recurrent compensation
--------------------------------------
The Parties hereby agree that:
(i) With regards to UK (HA):
- HA will pay for 100 % of the long term incentive plan (LTIP)
accumulated until 31 December 1998 ;
- For valuation purposes, the LTIP for 1998 will not take into

the Average Net Cash position;
- For 1999, HA will pay the current LTIP up to any amounts payable

1,800,000 Pounds). Any LTIP payment for any PBT achieved in
excess of 1,800,000 Pounds shall be paid by New MP ;
- A new LTIP shall be negotiated for three new years (2000, 2001,
2002).
- For the period of the New LTIP (three years) HA will pay any
amounts due, if any, under said new LTIP for any PBT objective
under 1,800,000 Pounds. Any LTIP payment for any PBT achieved in
excess of 1,800,000 Pounds shall be paid by New MP. This
obligation is subject to HA being present at the negotiation of
the new LTIP and approving such new LTIP.
(ii) - With regards to Mediapolis France (HA):
HA will pay for 100 % of the long term incentive plan (LTIP)
accumulated until 31 December 1998 ;
- For valuation purposes, the LTIP for 1998 will not take into
account in the calculation of EBITDA an amount of 1,330,000
French Francs before audit adjustment; however this exclusion
shall not affect the Average Net Cash position;

respect of the fiscal year ending on 31st December 1998 in an amount
corresponding to 100% of the net profit of operation of such Media Business for
the fiscal year ending on 31st December 1998. In addition Media Planning
shall distribute reserves as an extraordinary dividend in an amount of
500,000,000 Pesetas. As a consequence, an amount of 250,000,000 Pesetas shall
be deducted from Media Planning's Average Net Cash position for 1998 for the
purpose of the valuation formula provided in Article 1.4 of the Merger
Agreement.
The respective dividends shall be paid and belong to the respective shareholders
as at 31 December 1998.

Article 12 - MVBMS, Settlement of Adjustments
---------------------------------------------
12.1 Settlement Adjustments
Clause 1.6 of the Merger Agreement is amended to read as follows:
"1.6 Settlement of Adjustments
HA or the MP Shareholders, as the case may be, will settle the AcA, as
calculated pursuant to clause 1.5.1.2 as follows:
The Initial MVBMS Excess Fees can be either increased or decreased (the
amount so increased or decreased being defined as the "Final MVBMS Excess
Fees") as a result of the audit provided in Clause 1.5.1.2 of the Merger
Agreement so that the resulting amount "AcA" is equal to zero and that
there is no adjustment (in cash or by variation of percentage of
shareholding in New MP) under the Merger Agreement.
If as a result of the audit provided in Clause 1.5.1.2 of the Merger
Agreement, the Independent Auditor determines that the Actual Audited Value
of MP Contributions is lower than the Actual Value of MP Contributions
resulting from the Actual Accounts, the MP Shareholders shall have the
option:
Firstly, to reduce the Initial MVBMS Excess Fees,
Secondly, to reduce the Chanel Fee,
Thirdly, to contribute the subsidiary "Actiones Especiales",
in all cases, applying the standard valuation provided in the Merger
Agreement.
HA or the MP Shareholders, as the case may be, will determine no later than
May 17/th/, 1999 their decision as to how to proceed.
Subject always to Section 1.5.1.3 of the Merger Agreement, if the AcA
cannot be settled in full in the way provided above so that "AcA" is equal
to zero, the compensation shall be, as a penalty, equal to twice the amount
of the AcA and such amount shall be settled by the party liable for the
settlement : (i) paying such amount in cash to New MP, or (ii) accepting a
decrease of its percentage of participation in New MP, or (iii) a
combination of (i) and (ii)."
12.2 Migration US
12.2.1 The following amounts shall be determined as per the provisions of
the Merger Agreement:
"A" ("Final MVBMS Excess Fees");

Page 10.
"C", the Adjustment for Migration List Clients.
If the amount "A" (Final MVBMS Excess Fees) is greater than the amount "C"
(Adjustment for Migration List Clients), the amount to be paid under the
Merger Agreement for Migration List Clients in the U.S. shall be calculated
on the basis of the following formula:
[B - (A - C)] x multiple
If the amount "A" (Final MVBMS Excess Fees) is equal to or less than the
amount "C" (Adjustment for Migration List Clients), the amount to be paid
under the Merger Agreement for Migration List Clients in the U.S. shall be
calculated on the basis of the following formula:
B x multiple
12.2.2 Notwithstanding the provision of Clause 12.2.1 above, in the event
that as a result of the audit of the Actual Accounts carried out by the
Independent Auditor as provided in Clause 1.5.1.2 of the Merger Agreement,
the Independent Auditor determines that the Actual Audited Value of HA
Contributions is lower than the Actual Value of HA Contributions (i.e. the
value resulting from the Actual Accounts attached hereto), the amount to be
paid under the Merger Agreement for Migration List Clients in the U.S.
shall be calculated on the basis of the provisions provided in Clause
12.2.1 above but the amount "C" shall only be taken into account in such
formula up to the amount corresponding to the amount of the MVBMS fees
calculated on the basis of a 1.1% commission on net xxxxxxxx for 1998.
Article 13 - Miscellaneous financing matters
--------------------------------------------
13.1 Release of Guarantees
The Parties undertake to cause New MP to provide its best efforts to obtain
the substitution and release of any guarantees provided by HA or any HA
group companies to third parties in connection with the activities of the
Acquired Companies as soon as reasonably possible after the Merger Date.
Until such time as such substitution and release are obtained, should HA or
any HA group company have to make any payments to third parties under any
such guarantee, New MP shall pay or cause to be paid to HA or the relevant
HA group company any amount thus paid, upon request.
13.2 Financing Arrangements
Prior to the Merger Date, the Interim Committee shall review all financial
arrangements and guarantees between the Acquired Companies and HA or HA
group companies and MP Shareholders, and shall decide which arrangements
they wish to maintain after the
Page 11.
Merger Date and which should be terminated forthwith, which termination HA
and the MP Shareholders shall cause, if so required.
13.3 Migration U.S. and Mexico
The obligation of New MP provided in Article 1.3.1 of the Merger Agreement
is subject to New MP having reviewed to its satisfaction the financial
information that will be provided by HA with this respect. Upon review,
New MP will decide by simple majority of the Board of Directors at its
discretion whether it wishes to proceed with the transfer of the U.S.
and/or Mexico or not.
13.4 Annex G and H of the Merger Agreement
Annex G
For the purpose of the valuation of HA-contributed media Business in
Portugal, Average Net Cash position during the 1998 fiscal year shall also
be taken into account, using MP bench-marking.
Annex H

Agreement shall be adjusted, prior to Merger Date, to reflect the true
figures used for the respective client fees and EBITDA calculations, for
the purposes of the Merger Agreement.

The Independent Auditor appointed under Clause 1.5.1.2 of the Merger
Agreement shall determine the Average Net Cash position of Mediapolis UK
for the year 1999 pursuant to the principles and methods provided for in

Position of Mediapolis UK").
If the 1999 Audited Average Net Cash Position of Mediapolis UK is lower
than the amount of the Average Net Cash Position of Mediapolis UK used for
the purpose of the valuation, HA shall pay to New MP the amount of the
difference between these two amounts.
13.6 Commissions
HA guarantees that, as long as the MVBMS clients are clients of the HA
group, the commissions for media services payable to New MP or the relevant
subsidiary from 1/st/ January 1999 shall be calculated on the basis of a
1.1% commission on net xxxxxxxx.

Media Business Contributions will collaborate with, follow any instructions from

Article 15 - Miscellaneous
--------------------------
15.1 Notices
Any notice, request, demand or other communication given with reference to
this Agreement shall be delivered as provided in the Merger Agreement.
15.2 Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
substantive laws of Spain.
15.3 Assignability
Except as provided expressly herein or in any of the Implementation
Agreements, this Agreement will bind any successors of the Parties (and
specifically to the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxxx Family as described in the Shareholders
Agreement), but no rights or obligations may be assigned to any third
Party.
15.4 Jurisdiction
Except as otherwise expressly stated herein any controversy or claim
arising out of or relating to the Merger Agreement as amended by this
Agreement (including without limitation a breach thereof or the rights or
liabilities of the Parties thereunder as well as all matter related to the
signature, interpretation, validity and termination of the Merger
Agreement) shall be exclusively referred to and finally settled by
arbitration under the
Page 15.
Arbitration Rules of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Geneva (CCIG)
(the "Court"). The arbitral tribunal shall be composed of three members.
The Parties to any controversy or claim will jointly appoint three
arbitrators and, if within 30 days from the request of one party (whether
as plaintiff or defendant), the Parties fail to do so, then the Court will
appoint such three arbitrators, one of whom shall be neither a Spanish nor
a French national or resident.
The arbitration shall be held in Geneva. The written submissions and the
proceedings shall be made and conducted in the English language.
The arbitration award shall be based on law and not on equity (equidad
"amiable composition") and shall not be subject to appeal.
Judgement upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction or application may be made to such court for judicial
acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be.

The cross reference in Section 1.2.2 (c) of the Merger Agreement to Section
6.3 of such Agreement should be read as a reference to Section 6.2.
15.6 Term of the Merger Agreement
This Agreement (and therefore the Merger Agreement) will be valid until the
8/th/ anniversary of the effective Merger Date.
15.7 Amendment to the Merger Agreement
This Agreement is part of the Merger Agreement which, all approvals
provided for in Article 12 of such Merger Agreement having been obtained,
is binding on the parties. Except as modified by this Agreement, the
Merger Agreement shall continue to apply according to its terms.
