             INTERACTIVE NETWORK INDEPENDENT SHAREHOLDERS COMMITTEE

June 26, 2000

Dear Fellow Shareholder:

                 YOUR VOTE IS CRITICAL TO YOUR COMPANY'S FUTURE
                        AND THE VALUE OF YOUR INNN SHARES

The Annual Meeting of Interactive Network, Inc. will be held next Friday, June
30th. The Independent Shareholders Committee is extremely concerned by the lack
of experience and depth of the current INNN team. We believe you deserve a Board
and management better equipped to watch out for your interests and to protect
the value of your investment. To that end, the Committee seeks to increase the
size of INNN's Board from five to nine and add its five experienced and
knowledgeable nominees. WE URGE YOU TO VOTE FOR PROPOSALS 1 AND 2 ON THE
COMMITTEE'S PROXY CARD.

                PROXY MONITOR ADVISES SHAREHOLDERS TO VOTE "FOR"
                 THE INDEPENDENT SHAREHOLDERS COMMITTEE'S SLATE

You should be aware that Proxy Monitor, a highly respected national
institutional advisory firm, has recommended that shareholders support the
Committee's proposal to increase the Board size and has recommended a vote FOR
all five of the Committee's nominees. Proxy Monitor stated in its report, "We
too conclude that the Committee's nominees appear to be better positioned to
guide the company into a difficult future."

             INDEPENDENT COMMITTEE CALLS UPON INTERACTIVE NETWORK TO
                  ADJOURN THE VOTE ON EXCLUSIVE PATENT TRANSFER

Please also be advised that, in a June 22nd press release, the Committee urged
that INNN postpone the shareholder vote on Proposal 3, the proposal to approve
the grant to TWIN Entertainment, Inc. of an "exclusive" license to use INNN's
intellectual property. We believe that INNN should defer the vote on this
proposal until after shareholders have been provided with an opinion from an
investment banking firm or





other qualified expert that would enable them to make an informed decision on
this grant of exclusivity regarding your company's valuable intellectual
property.

Since time is short and your vote is critical, we have established a method that
will enable you to vote by toll-free proxygram. Please follow the simple steps
listed below.

If you have any questions or need assistance in the last- minute voting of your
shares, please call our proxy solicitors, Innisfree M&A Incorporated, toll-free
at 888-750 -5834.

Thank you for your support,


ROBERT H. HESSE                         RICHARD W. PERKINS
