Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants
The Administrative Committee
USA Networks, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan - Networks
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits
of the USA Networks, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan - Networks as of December 31,
2001 and 2000, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 2001. These financial statements are
the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit
to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at
December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the changes in its net assets available for
benefits for the year ended December 31, 2001, in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule of assets
(held at end of year) as of December 31, 2001 is presented for purposes of
additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but
is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and
Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the
Plan's management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements and, in our
opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial
statements taken as a whole.

USA NETWORKS, INC. RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN - NETWORKS
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2001
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following description of the USA Networks, Inc. Retirement Savings Plan -
Networks (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer
to the Plan agreement for a more complete description of the Plan's provisions.
GENERAL
The Plan is a defined contribution Plan covering substantially all employees of
certain affiliated companies of USA Networks, Inc. (the Company). The Plan is
subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
(ERISA).
During 2001, USA Networks, Inc. sold its USA Broadcasting division. The
assets for the employees of USA Broadcasting had not transferred out of the
Plan as of December 31, 2001.
CONTRIBUTIONS
Participants can make contributions through payroll deductions ranging from 1%
to 16% of their compensation as defined in the Plan, subject to Internal
Revenue Service limitations. Participants can direct their contributions to
any of the Plan's fund options and may change their investment options on a
daily basis.
The Company contributes an amount equal to 50% of the first 6% of compensation
that a participant contributes in each payroll period to the Plan. The Company
may also make a discretionary contribution of funds which is set annually by the
Company's Board of Directors. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the
Company's matching contribution was $1,176,593. No discretionary contributions
were made to the Plan.

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (CONTINUED)
VESTING
Participant contributions are fully vested in the Plan at the time of
contribution. A participant is 100% vested in the Company contribution
portion of their accounts plus actual earnings thereon after four years of
credited service
ELIGIBILITY
Participants must have completed at least three months of service, as defined in
the Plan document.
PARTICIPANTS' ACCOUNTS
Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and
allocations of the Company's contributions and Plan earnings. Allocations are
based on participant account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a
participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the
participant's account.
FORFEITURES
Company matching contributions that become forfeitures are first made available
to reinstate previously forfeited account balances of qualifying participants
who have left the Company and have subsequently returned. The remaining amount,
if any, is used to reduce the Company's matching contributions. Forfeited
non-vested accounts totaled $845,919 and $218,015 at December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.
PARTICIPANT LOANS
Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $500 up to a
maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 reduced by the highest outstanding loan
balance within the last 12 months or 50% of their vested account balances. With
the exception of loans used to purchase a primary residence which can have terms
up to 15 years, loan terms are limited to a maximum of five years. Loans are
secured by the balance in the participant's account and bear interest at a rate
commensurate with commercial prevailing rates as determined by the Plan
administrator. Principal and interest are paid ratably through biweekly payroll
deductions.

1. DESCRIPTION OF PLAN (CONTINUED)
PAYMENT OF BENEFITS
Upon a participant's retirement, death, disability or other interruption of
continuous service, his/her entire vested account balance will be distributed in
the form of a lump sum unless the participant's vested balance is at least
$5,000 and the participant elects to leave such amounts in the Plan.
PLAN TERMINATION
Although the Company has expressed no intent to terminate the Plan, in the event
that the Plan is terminated by the Company, all amounts credited to the
participants' accounts would become 100% vested and the assets would be
distributed to participants.
ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Substantially all of the administrative expenses are paid by the Company.
Participants are responsible for certain transaction fees related to their
respective account, such as new loan set-up fees and hardship withdrawal fees.
The participant expenses were $4,571 for the year ended December 31, 2001.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of
accounting.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates
that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying
notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
INVESTMENTS
The Plan's investments are stated at fair value. The shares of registered
investment companies are valued at quoted market prices which represent the net
asset values of shares held by the Plan at year end. Securities traded on a
national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sales price on the
last business day of the Plan year. The participant loans are valued at their
outstanding balances, which approximate fair value.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded as of their trade date. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
3. INVESTMENTS
During 2001, the Plan's investments (including investments purchased, sold and
held during the year) depreciated in fair value as determined by quoted market
prices as follows:
Investments in mutual funds $(8,856,139)
Investments in USA Networks Inc. stock 441,093
