                USA NETWORKS, INC. TO BE RENAMED USA INTERACTIVE

$4.3 BILLION IN PRO FORMA REVENUE AND $620 MILLION IN PRO FORMA EBITDA BUDGETED
                       FOR 2002 FOR OPERATING BUSINESSES

NEW YORK, NY, -- DECEMBER 17, 2001 -- As a result of the pending contribution of
its Entertainment Group to a joint venture with Vivendi Universal, USA Networks,
Inc. (NASDAQ:USAI) announced today that the Company will be renamed USA
Interactive, a leader in integrated interactivity. The Company's internet
commerce group - which includes HSN.com, ticketmaster.com, Match.com, Hotel
Reservations Network, and Expedia (pending) - are second only to eBay in terms
of profitability. Additionally, the Company's flagship properties are all in the
number one or number two positions in their respective categories of ticketing,
online dating, online travel and electronic retailing. These categories
represent approximately 50% of the total $52 billion interactive commerce
market.

The Company expects that the focus on integrated interactivity afforded by
today's announcement will expedite its march, both through internal growth and
through acquisition, from enabling 9% of all interactive commerce to 20% over
the next few years. This would make USA Interactive a clear leader in
interactive commerce and the only company focused on integrating interactive
assets across multiple lines of business. Additionally, Vivendi will no longer
have veto rights with respect to transactions valued in excess of 10% of USA's
market capitalization. As a result, USA will have corporate autonomy.

Barry Diller, Chairman and CEO of USA Networks, Inc. said:

"Here's what this transaction achieves for USAI shareholders:

1. The establishment of USA Interactive, a company with $4.3 billion in sales
and $620 million in EBITDA budgeted for operating businesses in 2002, truly
scale operations in multiple forms of electronic commerce and cash on hand at
closing of almost $3 billion.

2. A completely independent USA Interactive, which while having Board
representation from Liberty and Vivendi Universal, will have a Chief Executive
with voting control and no material veto rights from other parties.

3. A fair and full price for its Entertainment assets with a small but
significant carried interest in their future growth...and with the recognition
that their growth must be combined with other entertainment assets in order to
even get to the starting line of competition.



When Jean-Marie Messier and I started to discuss the possibilities between
Vivendi Universal and USA, we were mindful of two tasks - that the solution had
to be fair and balanced for both. Easily said, but incredibly difficult to
achieve given the multiple conflicts that existed. We have constructed a
transaction that while complex, has at its essence the realization of those
goals.

In addition to my role as the Chairman and CEO of USA Interactive, I have agreed
to serve as the Chairman and CEO of the newly constituted joint venture, Vivendi
Universal Entertainment. I recognize the drama and attention inherent in this
new responsibility, and I want it all to be as clear as I can make it:

I will serve at the pleasure of both Mr. Messier and myself. I will have no
employment contract. I will be paid no salary. For those who ask why I would do
this, here are the answers:

1. I have over the course of the last year gained enormous respect for what
Jean-Marie Messier is trying to accomplish in building a first tier media and
entertainment Company. The USA Entertainment Group joined with the worldwide
entertainment assets of Vivendi have the ability to further their goals of
becoming fully competitive in this fast moving media consolidation. I would
enjoy, mark that again, enjoy - helping Mr. Messier and his colleagues achieve
that - in whatever ways my experience can contribute. The executives of
Universal, and in particular, Ron Meyer and Stacey Snider are first rate, doing
first rate jobs and while I'm sure I'll have opinions I intend to join their
fine culture rather than imposing my own.

2. USA Interactive has a minority, but significant stake, in the joint venture,
which accretes in value.

3. I personally have a minority stake in the joint venture, which also can
accrete in value.

4. To those who ask why I would 'do this' after all I've said about corporate
life, let me, at the risk of boring everyone overly on the subject, set out here
what it is I did say almost exactly ten years ago when I left Fox:

         2/24/92

         I'VE ESSENTIALLY BEEN AN EMPLOYEE MY ENTIRE BUSINESS CAREER. I DON'T
         WANT TO DENIGRATE THAT - FAR FROM IT. SINCE THE BEGINNING I HAVE HAD
         GENUINELY AMAZING OPPORTUNITIES, GREAT GOOD LUCK AND REAL SATISFACTION
         BEING JUST THAT. BUT, I HAVE ALSO YEARNED TO HAVE MY OWN COMPANY IN
         WHATEVER SHAPE OR SIZE I AM COMFORTABLE OR CAPABLE OF CREATING OR
         ACQUIRING.

I believe I have achieved the goals I set out then and I will continue to 'have
my own company' at USAI for as far into the future as I can see. Far too much
has been made of this issue about going to work for someone, etc...far too much
on the issue of how I will



divide my time. I will take leadership in Vivendi Universal Entertainment
happily under the direction of Jean-Marie Messier confident that I can bear
those responsibilities without any of these issues becoming a problem for any of
my colleagues at either company, or for the shareholders of USAI.

A great deal of my energy will, of course, remain inside USA Interactive. The
great good luck of being able to have a Company in all these interactive areas,
so well funded, so strong and independent, at just the time of so much
opportunity - gives us a great chance to dominate a business sector that will
undoubtedly become one of the most important in the world.

One final point I would like to address. Much has been written about Edgar
Bronfman and the transaction with USA some four years ago. Almost all of it is
hogwash. What Mr. Bronfman did was to sell his television assets to HSN, Inc.
for what then was a full and fair price with the hope, clearly stated at the
time, that they would grow in value better than they could inside Seagram...
and, with absolute certainty, be repatriated back to the Company. And, since
Seagram would own more than 40% of the upside, whatever price would eventually
be paid for the assets would be balanced by the gain in the securities they
held. He believed with all his ambitions for Seagrams directed at the movie and
music businesses, that putting these assets in our hands was their best prospect
for growth. What neither of us knew at the time was that the consolidation in
the media business would put special pressures on the convergence of these
assets...but his vision, and yes, he had incredible vision, has turned out spot
on: he took a liquor business with an investment in a chemical company and
turned it into a true force, with leadership in music and movies in just a
handful of years and then, in a sacrifice to his own personal position, merged
it with Vivendi because he felt it was in the best interest of his shareholders.
Instead of the easy shot and mostly mindless criticisms, it would be minimally
fair to look at the record of his accomplishments...

As to the future, I believe what we have all accomplished in being able to make
this announcement today is the best testament of its future workability...and
eventual success, for both Vivendi Universal and USAI."

TODAY'S TRANSACTION


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRANSACTION CAN BE FOUND ON USA'S WEB SITE AT
WWW.USANETWORKS.COM.

DEAL SUMMARY

The transaction, with all its inherent complexity, is really quite simple:

1. USA and Vivendi will form a joint venture, which will own all USA's
entertainment assets and all Universal Studios' assets; Vivendi Universal will
own 93% of the joint



venture, with USA owning 5.4%. Barry Diller will also have an interest in the
joint venture;

2. In effect, USA will retire 377.5 million shares, or approximately 47% of
USA's outstanding shares. Therefore, USA will have 427.1 million shares
outstanding on a fully diluted treasury method basis;

3. USA will receive $1.62 billion in cash and $750 million full value preferred
interest;

4. USA will also own 5.4% of the joint venture, which USA values at
approximately $1 billion;

5. Vivendi will, on an economic basis, in effect no longer be a USA shareholder
(because the 56 million shares that they retain is committed to back a portion
of the preferred interest that USA will receive), except that Vivendi will
receive warrants to purchase 60 million shares of USA's Common Stock, and it
will retain the upside on the 56.6 million shares at prices above $41 per share;

6. If USA's shares trade at $40 per share, there will be approximately 3%
dilution relating to Vivendi's upside interests; at $75 per share, the dilution
is approximately 12%. This dilution is relatively modest because USA outstanding
stock base is relatively small;

7. If one assumes that USA has repurchased its own stock for $22 per share (a
relatively cheap price, in the context of this deal), the consideration received
by USA in the transaction is approximately $11.7 billion.

DETAILED DEAL DESCRIPTION

Through a series of transactions between Vivendi and USA Networks, and the
related transactions between Vivendi and Liberty Media, the following will
occur:

o    USA will contribute to a newly-formed joint venture with Vivendi the
     business of USA Entertainment, including the businesses acquired from
     Universal in 1998. Vivendi will contribute the business of Universal
     Studios Group.

o    As a member of the joint venture, USA will receive various interests:

          -- $1.62 billion cash distribution, subject to tax-deferred treatment
          -- $2.5 billion face amount in two classes of preferred partnership
          interests:
                    - $750 million in Class A preferred interests, with a 5% PIK
                    annual dividend, 20-year term, to be settled in cash
                    - $1.750 billion in Class B preferred interests, with a 3.6%
                    cash annual dividend and a 1.4% PIK annual dividend, 20-year
                    term, subject thereafter to a put/call arrangement with
                    Vivendi that can be settled with a maximum of 56.6 million
                    USA shares



          -- A 5.4% common interest in the joint venture, with a current
          notional value of $1 billion, callable by Vivendi after 5 years and
          puttable by USA after 8 years, which may be settled in either Vivendi
          stock or cash, at Vivendi's election.

o    USA will issue to Vivendi 10-year warrants to acquire shares of USA common
     stock, 24.2 million shares at $27.50; 24.2 million shares at $32.50 and
     12.1 million shares at $37.50

o    Mr. Diller will receive a 1.5% common participation interest in the joint
     venture in connection with his agreeing to certain non-competition
     provisions and agreeing to serve as the Chairman and CEO of the joint
     venture.

o    In connection with the transactions, USA will effectively retire 377.5
     million USA common shares or common equivalents (including the 56.6 million
     shares referred to above), including all of the exchangeable interests of
     USANi LLC currently owned by Vivendi and Liberty

o    USA and Mr. Diller have agreed that for a minimum of 18 months, they will
     not compete with Vivendi Universal's television and filmed entertainment
     businesses.

USA GOVERNANCE
The governance and shareholder arrangements among Mr. Diller, Vivendi and
Liberty have been substantially revised, with Mr. Diller having the ability to
exercise voting control over essentially all matters submitted to USA's
shareholders. Mr. Diller will continue to have a proxy with respect to all
shares of USA common and Class B stock owned by Vivendi and Liberty, which
voting power (together with shares owned by Mr. Diller) will represent
approximately 69% of the USA voting stock, after giving effect to the pending
transaction with Expedia. Vivendi and Liberty will each have the right to
appoint two members of the USA board.

SPECIAL COMMITTEE/APPROVAL PROCESS
In connection with the transaction, the Board of Directors appointed a special
committee of the USA Board to participate in the negotiation of the transaction,
evaluate the transaction on behalf of the company and its public stockholders
and make a recommendation to the USA Board regarding the transaction. The
special committee consisted of the independent directors of USA for these
purposes, consisting of William Savoy (who served as Chairman), Paul Allen,
General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, and Anne Busquet. The special committee retained
Bear, Stearns and Co., Inc. as financial advisors and also retained separate
legal counsel.

The special committee of the USA board, after receipt of a fairness opinion of
Bear, Stearns & Co., Inc., unanimously approved the transactions, recommended
that the USA board approve the transactions, which recommendation the USA board
adopted by unanimous vote (other than directors affiliated with Vivendi, who did
not participate). The USA board also received a fairness opinion from Allen &
Company, which, along



with JP Morgan Chase, advised USA on the transaction. The transaction is subject
to, among other conditions, approval of USA's unaffiliated shareholders. It is
expected that a USA shareholder meeting will be held in the second quarter of
2002.
