C. On or about September 8, 2004, HomeNet became a wholly owned subsidiary of HomeNet Corp as a result of a merger between HomeNet and a subsidiary of HomeNet Corp (the "Merger"). D. The parties desire to enter into this Settlement Agreement in order to provide full and final settlement of all obligations that have or might be made, by reason of any and all dealings by or between the parties, upon the terms and conditions set forth below. NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows: 1. Release and Discharge 1.1 Subject to the terms and provisions of this Settlement Agreement, Investors, Stonebridge and Sherry hereby completely release and forever discharge HomeNet and HomeNet Corp from any and all past or present claims, demands, obligations, actions, causes of action, rights, damages, costs, losses of services, expenses and compensation of any nature whatsoever, whether based on a tort, contract or other theory of recovery, which Investors, Stonebridge and/or Sherry now have, on account of, or relate to the Private Offering and/or any and all other dealings between (i) Video Internet Broadcasting, HomeNet and/or HomeNet Corp and (ii) Investors, Stonebridge and/or Sherry as of and through the date of the most recently dated Note. 1.2 Subject to the terms and provisions of this Settlement Agreement, HomeNet and HomeNet Corp hereby completely release and forever discharge Investors, Stonebridge and Sherry from any and all past or present claims, demands, obligations, actions, causes of action, rights, damages, costs, losses of services, expenses and compensation of any nature whatsoever, whether based on a tort, contract or other theory of recovery, which HomeNet and/or HomeNet Corp now have on account of, or relate to the Private Offering and/or any and all other dealings between (i) Video Internet Broadcasting, HomeNet and/or HomeNet Corp and (ii) Investors, Stonebridge and/or Sherry as of and through the date of the most recently dated Note. 1.3 This release and discharge shall also apply to Stonebridge's, HomeNet's and HomeNet Corp's past, present and future officers, directors, stockholders, attorneys, accountants, agents, servants, representatives, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, partners, predecessors, successors in interest and assigns and all other persons, firms or corporations with whom any of the former have been, are now, or may hereafter be affiliated. 1.4 This release, on the part of the parties hereto, shall be a fully binding and complete settlement as provided herein among the parties and their heirs, assigns and successors. 1.5 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Settlement Agreement, the releases contained herein shall in no way release any party from any duties or obligations undertaken in this Settlement Agreement. 2.

Investors must make an election to receive either the Cash Payback or the Conversion Payback within 10 days of the earlier of (i) June 1, 2005 or (ii) 10 days following written notice by HomeNet Corp to the Investor of the closing of the Next Equity Financing or upon expiration of the Maturity Date, as defined in Exhibit A (the first of such events to occur is hereinafter be referred to as the "Election Date").

Upon delivery to an Investor of the cash, Conversion Securities and/or warrants, as the case may be, such Investor shall deliver to HomeNet the original Note held by such Investor for cancellation. HomeNet Corp's obligation to deliver cash or deliver securities to an Investor shall be contingent upon the Investor tendering for delivery the original Note held by such Investor to HomeNet for cancellation or if such Note has become lost, an affidavit of lost note with customary and reasonable indemnification provisions. . 2.2 In full satisfaction of any amounts owing to Stonebridge, HomeNet Corp shall issue to Stonebridge 109,030 shares of Conversion Securities and issue to Sherry warrants for 10,903 of Conversion Securities with an exercise price of one dollar and a term of 5 years, as defined in Exhibit A hereto. The Conversion Securities shall be dated of even date herewith. The Conversion Securities and Warrants shall be delivered to Stonebridge and Sherry on or before June 1, 2005 to be coincident with the Next Equity Financing. In the event the Next Equity Financing has not occurred on or before June 1, 2005, HomeNet shall then issue to Stonebridge 109,030 shares of HomeNet's common stock and then issue to Sherry warrants for 10,903 shares of HomeNet common stock with an exercise price, term and other conditions as provided for Conversion Securities. In the event HomeNet is recapitalized or issues additional common stock prior to June 1, 2005, the shares of common stock issued to Stonebridge and the shares subject to warrants to be issued to Sherry shall be adjusted to equal the same percentage of HomeNet's common stock as prior to any such event. 2.3 The parties shall execute and deliver to the others any and all instruments and/or documents required to perform such party's obligations hereunder, and each party shall provide continuing assurance, upon reasonable request, of compliance with all of the provisions hereof.

Attorney's Fees Each party hereto shall bear all attorney's fees and costs arising from the actions of its own counsel in connection with this Settlement Agreement, the matters and documents referred to herein, and all related matters, except that HomeNet shall, at the time this Agreement is signed, pay the sum of $25,669 to Stonebridge which amount the parties agree represents reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that were incurred by Stonebridge in connection with this Settlement Agreement. 4. Representation of Comprehension of Document In entering into this Settlement Agreement the parties represent that they have relied upon the advise of their attorneys or had an opportunity to consult with an attorney of their choice. 5. Warranty of Capacity to Execute Agreement The parties represent and warrant that no other person or entity has, or has had, any interest in the claims, demands, obligations, or cause of action referred to in this Settlement Agreement, except as otherwise set forth herein; that each party has the sole right and exclusive authority to execute this Settlement Agreement; and that the parties have not sold, assigned, transferred, conveyed or otherwise disposed of any of the claims, demands, obligations or causes of action referred to in this Settlement Agreement. 6. Investor Representations Each Investor hereby individually, and not collectively, represents to HomeNet and HomeNet Corp as follows: 6.1 Investor is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the securities it may receive from HomeNet Corp in connection with this Settlement Agreement (individually and collectively, the "Securities") can afford the loss of the entire investment in the Securities, and will, after making an investment in the Securities, have sufficient means of providing for Investor's current needs and possible future contingencies. 6.2 The Securities will not be sold by Investor without registration under applicable securities acts or a proper exemption from such registration. 6.3 The Securities are being acquired for Investor's own account and risk, for investment purposes, and not on behalf of any other person or with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933. Investor is aware that there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Securities. 6.4 Investor has had access to any and all information concerning the HomeNet Corp and HomeNet that Investor and its financial, tax and legal advisors required or considered necessary to make a proper evaluation of this investment. Specifically, Investor has had the opportunity to review HomeNet Corp's annual report on Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2004, HomeNet Corp's quarterly report on Form 10-QSB for the quarterly periods ended June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2004, HomeNet Corp's current reports on Form 8-K that were filed during 2004 and the Proxy Statement and related materials sent to HomeNet voting stockholders in connection with the Merger (the "SEC Materials"). In making the decision to acquire the Securities, Investors and their advisers have relied solely upon the SEC Filings and their own independent investigations, and fully understand that there are no guarantees, assurances or promises in connection with any investment hereunder and understand that the particular tax consequences arising from this investment in HomeNet Corp will depend upon its individual circumstances. Investor further understands that no opinion is being given as to any securities or tax matters involving the transactions described in this Settlement Agreement. 6.5 Investor also understands and agrees that stop transfer instructions relating to the Securities will be placed in HomeNet Corp's transfer ledger, and that the Securities will bear a legend in substantially the following form: THIS SECURITIES REPREENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF A REGISTRATION STATEMENT IN EFFECT WITH RESPECT TO THESE SECURITIES UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A OF SUCH ACT. 6.6 Investor knows that the Securities are offered and sold pursuant to exemptions from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, and state securities law based, in part, on these warranties and representations, which are the very essence of this Settlement Agreement, and constitute a material part of the bargained-for consideration without which this Settlement Agreement would not have been executed. 6.7 Investor has the capacity to protect Investor's own interest in connection with this transaction or has a pre-existing personal or business relationship with HomeNet Corp or one or more of its officers, directors or controlling persons consisting of personal or business contacts of a nature and duration such as would enable a reasonably prudent purchaser to be aware of the character, business acumen and general business and financial circumstances of such person with whom such relationship exists. 6.8 Investor, if Investor is an entity, was not formed or organized for the specific purpose of acquiring the Securities. In the event Investor is an entity, the purchase of the Securities by Investor is a permissible investment in accordance with Investor's Articles of Incorporation or other similar charter document, and has been duly approved by all requisite action by the entity's owners, directors, officers or other authorized managers. The person signing this document and all documents necessary to consummate the purchase of the Securities has all requisite authority to sign such documents on behalf of Investor. 6.9 Investor represents that Investor is a sophisticated and an "accredited investor" as defined under Rule 501 of Regulation D for the reasons set forth in the subscriptions documents and questionnaire that Investor completed in connection with Investor's initial acquisition of the Notes. 7. Miscellaneous 7.1 This Settlement Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington. 7.2 All parties agree to cooperate fully and execute any and all supplementary documents and to take all additional actions, which may be necessary or appropriate to give full force and effect to the basic terms and intent of this Settlement Agreement. 7.3 This Settlement Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with regard to the matters set forth in it and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the executors, administrators, personal representatives, heirs, successors and assigns of each. This Settlement Agreement may not be modified by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. 7.4 This Settlement Agreement shall become effective immediately following execution by each of the parties and payment by HomeNet of the amounts described in Section 3. 7.5 This Settlement Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts and each when executed shall be deemed an original. The signature in counterpart on a facsimile transmission copy of this Settlement Agreement shall be valid and binding. 7.6 In the event any action, suit or proceeding is commenced by any party against another party under this Settlement Agreement, the prevailing party in any such action, suit or proceeding shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees, costs related to the discovery process, expert costs and court costs, in such amounts as the court may adjudge reasonable, including, but not limited to, those fees and costs incident to any appeal and to any action or participation in (or in connection with) a case or a proceeding involving a party under the applicable chapter of the Federal Bankruptcy Code (11 U.S.C. ss.ss. 101, et seq.), or any successor statute thereto. Venue of any such action, suit or proceeding shall be in King County, Washington. 7.7 This Settlement Agreement shall not be effective until and unless (i) it is executed by HomeNet Corp, HomeNet, Stonebridge, Sherry and each of the Investors, (ii) fully executed copies of this Settlement Agreement have been delivered to HomeNet no later than February __, 2005 and (iii) payment by HomeNet of the amount described in Section 3. 7.8 Except as otherwise required in this Subscription Agreement, any notice required or permitted under this Settlement Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given upon personal delivery or upon deposit with the United States Post Office, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, addressed as follows: To HomeNet Corp or Homenet: 5252 North Edgewood Drive, Suite 310 Provo, UT 84604 To Stonebridge: ____________________________________ To Sherry: ____________________________________ To an Investor: At the address set forth beneath the Investor's signature IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Settlement Agreement to be effective as of the date first written above.

The term "Next Equity Financing" does not include the issuance of HomeNet Corp common stock or other HomeNet Corp securities where the issuance was primarily for compensatory purposes (e.g., under HomeNet Corp Stock Option Plans) or where the issuance of such securities is primarily for payment of services (e.g., payment of HomeNet Corp lease obligations) provided such aggregate issuance for services does not exceed $100,000. The "Maturity Date" means June 1, 2005. Any Conversion Securities issued under clause (i) above shall be on the same terms and conditions and subject to all ancillary agreements and understandings as are applicable to the other investors in the Next Equity Financing, except that (a) the number of Conversion Securities to be received shall be equal to the number of Conversion Securities that the Investor would have received had the Investor invested the principal and interest which shall continue to accrue until the Maturity Date at the rate set forth in the Note , (as shown in the above table for the period from date of issue to the date the table was prepared) directly in the Next Equity Financing and (b) the investor shall be entitled to receive and HomeNet Corp shall issue the Warrants identified in the above table in addition to the Conversion Securities.

One (1) Warrant entitles the Holder to purchase one (1) share of the Company's _____ stock (the "______ Stock"). The _______ Stock issuable upon an exercise of this Warrant is sometimes herein referred to as the "Warrant Stock." 1. Purchase Price. The purchase price (the "Exercise Price") per share for the Warrant Stock shall be $1.00 per share tendered to the Company in good United States funds. 2. Rights to Exercise. The Holder shall have the right (but not the obligation) to exercise the Warrant to receive the Warrant Stock (subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided) at any time on or before the five year anniversary date of this Note (?). 3. Manner of Exercise. In order to exercise this Warrant, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant certificate at the office of the Company, as set forth below, or at such other address within the State of Utah as the Company shall designate in writing, together with a duly executed exercise form in the form attached hereto and simultaneous payment in full (in cash or by certified or official bank or bank cashier's check payable to the order of the Company or by offset of obligations then owed by the Company to the Holder) of the purchase price for the Warrant Stock. In lieu of payment of the Exercise Price in cash, the Holder shall have the right at any time and from time to time to exercise the Warrants by surrendering the Warrant in the manner specified herein in exchange for the number of shares of ______ Stock computed using the following formula: X = Y (A-B) ----- A Where X = the number of shares of _______ Stock to be issued to the Holder. Y = the number of Warrant Shares subject to this Warrant or, if only a portion of this Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised. A = the Market Price (as defined below) of one Warrant Share (as of the date of such calculation). B = the Exercise Price per Warrant Share (as adjusted to the date of such calculation). As used herein, the term "Market Price" of one Warrant Share shall be deemed to be the average of the last reported sale prices per Warrant Share as officially reported by the principal securities exchange on which the Company's Common Stock is listed or admitted to trading during said period, or, if the Company's Common Stock is not listed or admitted to trading on any national securities exchange during said period, the average closing bid and asked price of the Common Stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market System or reported on the NASD's OTC Bulletin Board, in any such case as published in the Eastern Edition of the Wall Street Journal for the last ten (10) trading days immediately prior to the date of calculation. If the Company's Common Stock is not quoted on Nasdaq or the OTC Bulletin Board, the Market Price per Warrant Share shall be agreed upon by the parties hereto. If the parties cannot agree within five (5) business days of delivery of the notice of exercise, the Market Price per Warrant Share shall be as determined in good faith by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, based on the best information available to it. For purposes hereof, the "date of calculation" shall be the day on which the Holder either mails the notice of exercise to the Company by first class certified mail or delivers the notice of exercise to a nationally-recognized courier for next business day delivery to the Company. Upon surrender of this Warrant in conformity with the foregoing provisions, the Company shall promptly deliver to or upon the written order of the Holder a stock certificate or certificates representing the number of Warrant Shares so purchased. Certificates for shares purchased shall be delivered within ten (10) business days after the date on which this Warrant shall have been exercised. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised and such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and Holder or any other person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such shares for all purposes, as of the date the Warrant has been exercised by payment to the Company of the Exercise Price and all taxes required to be paid by the Holder, if any, pursuant to Section 7.6 prior to the issuance of such shares, have been paid. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the time of delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant Stock, deliver to Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant. 4. Adjustments upon Certain Events. 4.1 Stock Splits, Stock Combinations and Certain Stock Dividends. If the Company shall at any time subdivide or combine its outstanding Common Stock, or declare a dividend in Common Stock or other securities of the Company convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, a Warrant shall, after such subdivision or combination or after the record date for such dividend, be exercisable for that number of shares of Common Stock and other securities of the Company that the Holder would have owned immediately after such event with respect to the Common Stock and other securities for which a Warrant may have been exercised immediately before such event had the Warrant been exercised immediately before such event. Any adjustment under this Section 4.1 shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision, combination or dividend becomes effective. 4.2 Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger. In case of any reorganization of the Company (or any other corporation the stock or other securities of which are at the time receivable upon exercise of a Warrant) or in case the Company (or any such other corporation) shall merge into or with or consolidate with another corporation or convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation or enter into a business combination of any form as a result of which the Common Stock or other securities receivable upon exercise of a Warrant are converted into other stock or securities of the same or another corporation, then and in each such case, the Holder of a Warrant, upon exercise of the purchase right at any time after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance or combination, shall be entitled to receive, in lieu of the shares of Common Stock or other securities to which such Holder would have been entitled had he exercised the purchase right immediately prior thereto, such stock and securities which such Holder would have owned immediately after such event with respect to the shares Common Stock and other securities for which a Warrant may have been exercised immediately before such event had the Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such event. 4.3 Notice. In each case of an adjustment in the Common Stock or other securities receivable upon the exercise of a Warrant, the Company shall promptly notify the Holder of such adjustment. Such notice shall set forth the facts upon which such adjustment is based. 5. Loss, Theft, Destruction, or Mutilation.

Reservation of Shares Issuable on Exercise of Warrant.
