Received following email tonight re: CMGI Directed Share Program for the Engage Technologies, Inc. Initial Public Offering Thank you for visiting the information site for the CMGI Directed Share Program for the Engage Technologies, Inc. Initial Public Offering. REGISTRATION FOR THIS PROGRAM CLOSED AS OF 5:00PM EASTERN TIME ON JULY 2, 1999, AS DESCRIBED IN THE INITIAL LETTER. Please read this document in its entirety. If you have completed the online account opening process, you have been given a Wit Capital account number. Once you have sent the required documentation (along with the minimum required account deposit of $2,000), you need take no further action in regard to the Engage Technologies Inc., IPO until you are notified by Wit Capital of the availability of the Preliminary Prospectus. You will be notified about the availability of the prospectus via e-mail. We expect this to occur on or about July 8, 1999. Notification about next steps regarding the Engage offering will ONLY be forwarded via email to the address you provide upon registering for the Program. Many of the subsequent steps in this program are time-sensitive, and will require a prompt response, also via email, to continue your participation. Therefore, upon opening your account, you should only provide an email address through which you have convenient, daily access to new messages. Please note that neither CMGI, Engage nor Wit Capital is assuring you that you will be allocated shares in the Engage offering. If you have questions, please go to the Frequently Asked Questions at affinity.witcapital.com You may also e-mail your inquiries directly to Wit Capital using the following e-mail address: engage@witcapital.com. When you are notified via e-mail, you may continue on to "Step 2: Review of the Preliminary Prospectus and Placement of a Conditional Offer for shares in the Engage Technologies, Inc. IPO" as described in the initial letter from CMGI. If you have successfully registered for the program, Wit Capital will notify you VIA EMAIL when the preliminary prospectus is available and Wit Capital has begun accepting Conditional Offers for the Engage IPO. We expect this may occur on or about July 8, 1999. At that time, you may: I. Review the preliminary prospectus II. Place a Conditional Offer Note: Conditional Offers may only be placed in units of 100 shares with a minimum permissible request of 100 shares and a maximum permissible request of 500 shares per account. The number of shares you specify in your Conditional Offer is the maximum number of shares you may be allocated, however, there is NO GUARANTEE that you will receive any shares in this offering. After that date, and once the offering becomes effective, in order to continue in the program you must: III. Re-confirm your Conditional Offer. On the evening that the offering is declared effective, Wit Capital will notify you VIA EMAIL of the offering price. At that time, if you still want the opportunity to be allocated shares, you will need to re-confirm your Conditional Offer by typing in "I Confirm" in the subject field in response to the e-mail, by the specified time (usually midnight). Should you be allocated shares as a result of your re-confirmation, the number of shares available to you will be communicated via email prior to the opening trade. This is anticipated to occur during the week of July 19, 1999. IV. Send full payment. You are required to make full payment for the balance due in your account by sending a check (made payable to U.S. Clearing) and delivered by mail or to: Wit Capital Corporation P.O. Box 724 Attn: Engage Technologies, Inc./Directed Share New York, NY 10276 If you choose to send via overnight delivery, please use the following address: Wit Capital Corporation 826 Broadway 6th Floor Attn: Engage Technologies, Inc./Directed Share New York, NY 10003 Payment for balance due on your purchase must be received no later than close of business 3 business days after the initial trading day. (For example, if the offering becomes effective and begins trading on a Monday, the balance due must be received no later than close of business on Thursday of that same week.) Following this deadline, purchases for accounts with balances due may be liquidated and the non-paying customer will be liable for any loss. Note: Should you NOT receive shares in the Engage Technologies, Inc. IPO, any funds that you have placed in your Wit Capital account may be used for other transactions within Wit Capital's general brokerage services, or upon your request, will be returned to you.
