<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">December&nbsp;9, 2004



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Dear Brian:



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DoubleClick Inc., a Delaware corporation (<B>&#147;DoubleClick&#148; or &#147;Company&#148;</B>),
desires to assure itself as to the continued focus of your services and to
avoid disruption to the Company while it explores and possibly implements
strategic alternatives. Accordingly, subject to the terms of this letter
agreement (this <B>&#147;Agreement&#148;</B>), DoubleClick desires to offer and pay to you the
retention bonuses and severance payments, if applicable, set forth below. All
capitalized terms shall have the meanings set forth on Schedule&nbsp;A.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Retention Payments</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In consideration for the terms of this Agreement and to provide you with
an additional incentive to remain with DoubleClick,


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)&nbsp;if you have remained continuously employed full-time by DoubleClick at
all times from the date of this Agreement through April&nbsp;30, 2005 (the <B>&#147;First
Retention Period&#148;</B>), DoubleClick will pay you a retention bonus of $150,000 (the
<B>&#147;First Retention Payment&#148;</B>) in a lump sum within 30&nbsp;days following the end of
the First Retention Period, subject to the provisions set forth below; and


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)&nbsp;if you have remained continuously employed full-time by DoubleClick at
all times from the date of this Agreement through January&nbsp;31, 2006 (the <B>&#147;Second
Retention Period&#148;</B>), DoubleClick will pay you a retention bonus of $300,000 (the
<B>&#147;Second Retention Payment&#148;</B>) in a lump sum within 30&nbsp;days following the end of
the Second Retention Period, subject to the provisions set forth below.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If you are employed by DoubleClick when DoubleClick closes a Division
Change in Control, DoubleClick shall pay to you the First Retention Payment and
the Second Retention Payment, if and to the extent they have not previously
been paid to you, in a lump sum within 30&nbsp;days after the date of the closing of
such Division Change in Control.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Notwithstanding the foregoing, if prior to the end of the First Retention
Period and/or Second Retention Period, as the case may be, your employment with
DoubleClick is terminated by DoubleClick without Cause or by you for Good
Reason, DoubleClick shall pay to you the First Retention Payment and the Second
Retention Payment, if and to the extent they have not previously been paid to
you, in a lump sum within 30&nbsp;days following the effective date of your
termination of employment (the &#147;Termination Date&#148;).


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Severance Payments</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition to the retention payments discussed above, upon the
termination of your employment with DoubleClick under circumstances in which
you would be eligible to receive severance payments under the terms of the
DoubleClick Severance Plan as in effect on the date

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">of this Agreement (the &#147;Severance Plan&#148;), DoubleClick will pay you a
severance payment equal to the amount you are eligible to receive pursuant to
the terms of the Severance Plan plus the pro rata amount of your target bonus
for the year in which your employment is terminated, which shall be determined
by multiplying your target bonus for the year in which your employment is
terminated by (A)&nbsp;the lesser of (x)&nbsp;DoubleClick&#146;s accrual rate for the bonus
pool at the time of the termination of your employment and (y)&nbsp;100%, and (B)&nbsp;a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the then current
fiscal year through the date of your termination and the denominator of which
is 365.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Sabbatical Benefit</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, if you are or become eligible to take a four-week paid
sabbatical pursuant to DoubleClick&#146;s Employee Sabbatical Program during the
period from the date of this Agreement through the earlier of the Termination
Date or the Second Retention Period, DoubleClick may, at its option and in its
sole discretion, pay to you your sabbatical benefit equal to four-weeks&#146; salary
at your then current base rate of pay in lieu of permitting you to take such
four- week sabbatical leave.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Responsibilities</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As part of this Agreement, you agree to assist with and facilitate in a
constructive manner DoubleClick&#146;s assessment and implementation of any
strategic alternatives DoubleClick may choose to pursue.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Taxes</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;DoubleClick may withhold from any amounts payable hereunder any federal,
state, local or foreign taxes as shall be required to be withheld under
applicable law or regulation.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding and except as
set forth below, in the event it shall be determined that any payment or
distribution by the Company to or for your benefit and/or any acceleration or
vesting of any options (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable
or provided pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, but
determined without regard to any additional payments required under this
paragraph) (collectively, <B>&#147;Change in Control Payments&#148;</B>) would be subject to the
excise tax imposed by Section&nbsp;4999 of the Internal Revenue Code or any interest
or penalties are incurred by you with respect to such excise tax (such excise
tax, together with any such interest and penalties, are collectively referred
to as the <B>&#147;Excise Tax&#148;</B>), then you shall be entitled to receive an additional
payment (a <B>&#147;Gross-Up Payment&#148;</B>) in an amount such that after the payment by you
of all taxes (including any interest or penalties imposed with respect to such
taxes), including, without limitation, any income taxes (and any interest and
penalties with respect to such taxes) and Excise Tax imposed upon the Gross-Up
Payment, you retain an amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to the Excise Tax
imposed upon the Change in Control Payments. All determinations required to be
made under this paragraph, including whether and when a Gross-Up Payment is
required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment, and the assumptions to be
utilized in arriving at such determinations, shall be made at DoubleClick&#146;s
expense by a certified public accounting firm designated by DoubleClick&#146;s Board
of Directors. In the event of any

firm designated in accordance with the preceding sentence, the amount of such
underpayment or overpayment shall promptly be paid to you or refunded to
DoubleClick, as the case may be, with interest at the applicable federal rate
provided for in Section&nbsp;7872(f)(2) of the Code.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Assignment</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Agreement binds DoubleClick, its successors or assigns. References

required to be made by DoubleClick under this Agreement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>At-Will Employment</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Nothing in this Agreement changes the at-will nature of your employment by
DoubleClick. No provision of this Agreement is intended to provide you with
any right to continue employment with DoubleClick or otherwise affect the right
of DoubleClick, which right is hereby expressly reserved, to terminate your
employment at any time for any reason, with or without Cause.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Non-Compete</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In consideration for DoubleClick entering into this Agreement and as a
member of DoubleClick&#146;s management, you agree as follows:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)&nbsp;Non-Solicitation. You hereby agree that during your employment and
for a period of one year from the Termination Date, you shall not solicit any
DoubleClick employee on behalf of another employer or encourage any DoubleClick
employee to leave DoubleClick. You also agree for a period of one year from
the Termination Date that you shall not solicit any DoubleClick account, on
your behalf or on behalf of any other individual or entity, for any purpose or
in any way competitive with the businesses of DoubleClick.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;Non-Competition. You agree that during your employment and for a
period of one year following the Termination Date, you shall not, as an
employee, agent, consultant, advisor, independent contractor, partner, officer,
director, stockholder, owner, co-venturer, principal, investor, lender, or
guarantor of any corporation, partnership, or other entity, or in any other
capacity, directly or indirectly: (a)&nbsp;engage in any business that is
competitive with any of the businesses of DoubleClick as they exist at the time
of this Agreement (a <B>&#147;Competitive Business&#148;</B>); (b)&nbsp;permit your name to be used
in connection with a Competitive Business; or (c)&nbsp;acquire any debt, equity, or
other ownership interest in any person or entity engaged in a Competitive
Business, except that you may own, in the aggregate, not more than one percent
(1%) of the outstanding shares of any publicly held corporation which is a
Competitive Business, which has shares listed for trading on a securities
exchange registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission or through the
automatic quotation system of a registered securities association; provided,
however, that if the Termination Date occurs at any time after a Division

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Change in Control, the covenants and restrictions contained in this subsection
(2)&nbsp;shall be applicable to you if, and only if, the Company pays the Restricted
Payment to you within two (2)&nbsp;weeks following the Termination Date. It shall
be the Company&#146;s (or its successor in interest) sole option whether to pay the
Restricted Period Payment.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)&nbsp;Remedies. If you breach any covenants made in this Agreement,
DoubleClick shall have a right to the return of all payments paid pursuant to
this Agreement. DoubleClick&#146;s rights under this paragraph are without
prejudice to its other rights, including the right of DoubleClick to seek
preliminary and permanent injunctive relief in court to preclude any
irreparable harm arising out of a violation or threatened violation of this
agreement, and to seek an award of compensatory and/or exemplary damages
arising from any breaches of this Agreement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)&nbsp;Construction. Each of the clauses contained in this section of the
Agreement constitutes an entirely separate and independent covenant. If any
restriction is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent
jurisdiction, it is intended and understood by the parties that such invalidity
or unenforceability will not affect the remaining restrictions or the validity
of the rest of the Agreement. If any restriction contained in this section of
the Agreement is deemed to be unreasonable, overbroad or otherwise
unenforceable, the parties agree that the court should interpret the covenant
in such a way and with such modification as may be required to make such
covenant reasonable and enforceable over the greatest area and time permitted
by applicable law.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>Release</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As a condition to your right to receive each payment payable to you under
this Agreement, you agree to execute and deliver to DoubleClick a release in
substantially the form attached as Annex A hereto prior to each such payment.
The parties agree that such form may be altered prior to signing, in order to:
(i)&nbsp;account for any changes in the law that would affect the enforceability of
the release; or (ii)&nbsp;include such additional provisions as may be reasonably
required to give effect to the parties&#146; intent that such release be a general
release of all claims by you.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt"><B>General</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement of the parties hereto in
respect of the subject matter contained herein and supersedes all prior
agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations
or warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or
representative of any party hereto in respect of the subject matter contained
herein; and any prior agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject
matter contained herein, including, without limitation, any prior retention or
severance agreement or any prior agreement providing for bonus payments in
connection with a change in control, is hereby terminated and cancelled. Your
outstanding options to purchase DoubleClick common stock shall remain subject
to the terms of the applicable stock option agreement and plan, and no
additional rights with respect to such options are conferred by this Agreement.
The laws of the State of New York (other than its conflict of laws provisions)
govern this Agreement. <B>Each of DoubleClick and you hereby waives any right to
trial by jury in any proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.</B>
