     The Patents
     -----------

     USA Video owns patents for Video-on-Demand technology and Video-on-Demand
systems.  Patent counsel believes that the patents are relevant to emerging
video transmission technology, but the patents are not critical to the current
development of business.

     USA Video applied for a U.S. patent for its Store and Forward VoD
technology on February 1, 1990.  Corresponding overseas applications were filed
in 1992.  USA Video was granted U.S. Patent # 5,130,792 on July 14, 1992.  On
June 12, 2000, the U.S. Patent Office reinstated the patent for USA Video's
Store and Forward VoD technology, which had expired because of an administrative
oversight that led to late payment of fees due in 1995.

     In 1999, USA Video was granted patents on its Store and Forward VoD patent
applications in five European countries: England, France, Germany, Italy and
Spain.  The technological characteristics of the European Patents are based on
the U.S. Patent, covering systems for transmitting video programs to remote
locations over a switched telephone network, and are similar in scope to the
U.S. patent claims.  Additional applications are pending in Canada and Japan.

     The value of the USA Video patents is presently unknown.  Patent counsel
believes that the value of these patents will depend on what happens in the
future in Video-on-Demand technology.  The value will also depend upon
enforcement decisions yet to be made by management.  Any value which the patents
may have would be recognized either through a licensing program, or through
market advantage obtained by excluding others from the patented technology.  The
scope of the potential market for licensing USA Video's Video-on-Demand patent
will be determined by how expansive the market for encoded video products
becomes, how many major industry players develop profitable VoD markets, and the
technology used to implement the products

     USA Video intends to enforce its patents through licensing agreements and
friendly negotiations.  Should that approach fail, USA Video is prepared to
prosecute infringement of its patents through litigation.
