Email from company re dollar amounts.

>>We have received a number of calls and e-mails, asking why there are no
financial numbers given in today?s Announcement.

We cannot reveal the size of Answers.com?s contract with GE Plastics
because the customer has specified that the details be kept confidential.

This is a matter of competitive advantage. As they said in the
announcement, the Agreement with Answers.com ?vastly improves the speed at
which our customers get answers and information from our Web site?.

Is this, then, significant news for the Net Shepherd Group of companies?
Yes, for three reasons.

ú Answers.com would not have made such a significant investment in the
relationship with GE ? including months of technology testing - if this
were not an important Agreement.

ú The Master Service Agreement that they have signed gives Answers.com an
opportunity to work with other GE divisions. There are hundreds of these.
The potential implications of this are very considerable.

ú At a time when Answers.com is talking to other potential customers, to
have GE Plastics as an initial reference account is an extraordinary
indication of the commercial potential of this company.

There is an opportunity to discuss these and other matters with Don
Sandford, our President & CEO on Wednesday afternoon during the Net
Shepherd Investor Forum teleconference.

I hope that you will be able to join us at 2.30 pm Mountain Daylight Time
on the 31st. Please call 1 800-273-9672.

If you miss the Forum, then a recording can be accessed over the Web by
