         ---------------------------------------

         Uproar Inc. (the "Registrant") hereby incorporates by reference into
this Registration Statement the following documents previously filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"):

     (a) The Registrant's prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
         424(b) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
         "1933 Act"), in connection with the Registrant's Registration Statement
         No. 333-93315 on Form S-1, in which there is set forth the audited
         financial statements for the Registrant's fiscal year ended December
         31, 1999;

     (b) The Registrant's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter
         ended March 31, 2000, filed with the Commission on May 12, 2000;

     (c) The Registrant's Registration Statement No. 000-29971 on Form 8-A12G
         filed with the Commission on March 16, 2000, pursuant to Section 12(b)
         of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), in which
         there is described the terms, rights and provisions applicable to the
         Registrant's outstanding Common Stock.

         All reports and definitive proxy or information statements filed
pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") after the date of this Registration Statement
and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all
securities offered hereby have been sold or which de-registers all securities
then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this
Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such
documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement
contained herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is deemed to
be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any
such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so
modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

Item 4.  Description of Securities
         -------------------------

                  Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
         --------------------------------------

                  Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers
         -----------------------------------------

         The Registrant's certificate of incorporation provides that, except to
the extent prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, the
directors shall not be personally liable to the Registrant's stockholders for
monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as directors of the
Registrant. Under the DGCL, the directors have a fiduciary duty to the
Registrant which is not eliminated by this provision of the certificate and, in
appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms
of non-monetary relief will remain available. In addition, each director will
continue to be subject to liability under the DGCL for breach of the director's
duty of loyalty to the Registrant, for acts or omissions which are found by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be not in good faith or which involves
intentional misconduct, or knowing violations of law, for actions leading to
improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or
approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are prohibited by DGCL. This
provision also does not affect the directors' responsibilities under any other
laws, such as the Federal securities laws or state or Federal environmental
laws.

                                      II-1
<PAGE>


         Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify its
directors and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability
arising out of their capacity or status as directors and officers, provided that
this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director:

         (1) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation
             or its stockholders;

         (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
             intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

         (3) arising under Section 174 of the DGCL; or

         (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper
             personal benefit.

         The DGCL provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and
officers may be entitled under the corporation's bylaws, any agreement, a vote
of stockholders or otherwise. The Certificate eliminates the personal liability
of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL
and provides that the Registrant shall fully indemnify any person who was or is
a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant
as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding.

         The Registrant's bylaws permit them to secure insurance on behalf of
any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of
his or her actions, regardless of whether the DGCL would permit indemnification.
The Registrant has obtained liability insurance for their officers and
directors.

Item 9.  Undertakings
         ------------

         A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during
any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this Registration Statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by
Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the
most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
Registration Statement and (iii) to include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this
Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall
not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those clauses is contained in periodic reports filed by the
Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement; (2) that for the
purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act each such post-effective
amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove
from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the Registrant's 2000
Stock Incentive Plan, at the termination of the options granted to the
specified individuals, or at the termination of the PrizePoint Entertainment
Corporation 1998 Stock Option Plan.

         B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933
Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6 or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the
Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 3.  Incorporation of Documents by Reference
         ---------------------------------------

         Uproar Inc. (the "Registrant") hereby incorporates by reference into
this Registration Statement the following documents previously filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"):

     (a) The Registrant's prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
         424(b) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
         "1933 Act"), in connection with the Registrant's Registration Statement
         No. 333-93315 on Form S-1, in which there is set forth the audited
         financial statements for the Registrant's fiscal year ended December
         31, 1999;

     (b) The Registrant's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter
         ended March 31, 2000, filed with the Commission on May 12, 2000;

     (c) The Registrant's Registration Statement No. 000-29971 on Form 8-A12G
         filed with the Commission on March 16, 2000, pursuant to Section 12(b)
         of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"), in which
         there is described the terms, rights and provisions applicable to the
         Registrant's outstanding Common Stock.

         All reports and definitive proxy or information statements filed
pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "1934 Act") after the date of this Registration Statement
and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all
securities offered hereby have been sold or which de-registers all securities
then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference into this
Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such
documents. Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be
incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded
for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement
contained herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is deemed to
be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any
such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so
modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

Item 4.  Description of Securities
         -------------------------

                  Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel
         --------------------------------------

                  Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers
         -----------------------------------------

         The Registrant's certificate of incorporation provides that, except to
the extent prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law, or DGCL, the
directors shall not be personally liable to the Registrant's stockholders for
monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as directors of the
Registrant. Under the DGCL, the directors have a fiduciary duty to the
Registrant which is not eliminated by this provision of the certificate and, in
appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms
of non-monetary relief will remain available. In addition, each director will
continue to be subject to liability under the DGCL for breach of the director's
duty of loyalty to the Registrant, for acts or omissions which are found by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be not in good faith or which involves
intentional misconduct, or knowing violations of law, for actions leading to
improper personal benefit to the director, and for payment of dividends or
approval of stock repurchases or redemptions that are prohibited by DGCL. This
provision also does not affect the directors' responsibilities under any other
laws, such as the Federal securities laws or state or Federal environmental
laws.

                                      II-1
Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify its
directors and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability
arising out of their capacity or status as directors and officers, provided that
this provision shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director:

         (1) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation
             or its stockholders;

         (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
             intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

         (3) arising under Section 174 of the DGCL; or

         (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper
             personal benefit.

         The DGCL provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder
shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and
officers may be entitled under the corporation's bylaws, any agreement, a vote
of stockholders or otherwise. The Certificate eliminates the personal liability
of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL
and provides that the Registrant shall fully indemnify any person who was or is
a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit or proceeding (whether civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director or
officer of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request of the Registrant
as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or
proceeding.

         The Registrant's bylaws permit them to secure insurance on behalf of
any officer, director, employee or other agent for any liability arising out of
his or her actions, regardless of whether the DGCL would permit indemnification.
The Registrant has obtained liability insurance for their officers and
directors.

Item 9.  Undertakings
         ------------

         A. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during
any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this Registration Statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by
Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act, (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the
most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this
Registration Statement and (iii) to include any material information with
respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this
Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this
Registration Statement; provided, however, that clauses (1)(i) and (1)(ii) shall
not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those clauses is contained in periodic reports filed by the
Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that are
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement; (2) that for the
purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act each such post-effective
amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein and the offering of such securities at that time
shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove
from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities
being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the Registrant's 2000
Stock Incentive Plan, at the termination of the options granted to the
specified individuals, or at the termination of the PrizePoint Entertainment
Corporation 1998 Stock Option Plan.

         B. The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each filing of the Registrant's
annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the 1934 Act that is
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

         C. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933
Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the indemnification provisions summarized in Item 6 or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the
Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
