Company agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the
SEC, within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and regulations for as
long as they are applicable to the Company, (i) all quarterly and annual

exercise, the number of shares of each class of Capital Stock that are required

an exercise of a Warrant in accordance with clause (iv) is herein referred to as
an "In-Kind Exercise." The documentation and consideration, if any, delivered in
accordance with subsections (A), (B) and (C) are collectively referred to herein
as the "Warrant Exercise Documentation."
(b) As promptly as practicable, and in any event within five (5)
Business Days after receipt of the Warrant Exercise Documentation, the Company
shall deliver or cause to be delivered (A) certificates representing the number
of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock specified
in the Warrant Exercise Documentation, (B) if applicable, cash in lieu of any
fraction of a share, as hereinafter provided, and (C) if less than the full
number of Warrants evidenced hereby are being exercised or used in a Cashless
Exercise, a new Warrant Certificate or Certificates, of like tenor, for the
number of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate, less the number of
Warrants then being exercised and/or used in a Cashless Exercise. Such exercise
shall be deemed to have been made at the close of business on the date of
delivery of the Warrant Exercise Documentation so that the Person entitled to
receive shares of Common
Page 29 of 78 Pages
3
Stock upon such exercise shall be treated for all purposes as having become the
record holder of such shares of Common Stock at such time.
(c) The Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the Company in
connection with and taxes and other governmental charges (other than income
taxes of the Holder) that may be imposed in respect of, the issue or delivery of
any shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrants evidenced
hereby. The Company shall not be required, however, to pay any tax or other
charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issue of any
certificate for shares of Common Stock, as the case may be, in any name other
than that of the registered holder of the Warrant evidenced hereby.
(d) In connection with the exercise of any Warrants evidenced
hereby, no fractions of shares of Common Stock shall be issued, but in lieu
thereof the Company shall pay a cash adjustment in respect of such fractional
interest in an amount equal to such fractional interest multiplied by the Market
Price for one Share of Common Stock on the Business Day which immediately
precedes the day of exercise. If more than one (1) such Warrant shall be
exercised by the holder thereof at the same time, the number of full shares of
Common Stock issuable on such exercise shall be computed on the basis of the
total number of Warrants so exercised.
Section 2. Certain Adjustments.
(a) The number of shares of Common Stock purchasable upon the
exercise of this Warrant and the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment
as follows:
(i) Stock Dividends, Subdivision, Combination or
Reclassification of Common Stock. If at any time after the date of the issuance
of this Warrant the Company shall (i) pay a dividend on Common Stock in shares
of its capital stock, (ii) combine its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
smaller number of shares, (iii) subdivide its outstanding shares of Common Stock
as the case may be, or (iv) issue by reclassification of its shares of Common
Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then, on the record date for
such dividend or the effective date of such subdivision or split-up, combination
or reclassification, as the case may be, the number and kind of shares to be
delivered upon exercise of this Warrant will be adjusted so that the Holder will
be entitled to receive the number and kind of shares of capital stock that such
Holder would have owned or been entitled to receive upon or by reason of such
event had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior thereto, and the
Exercise Price will be adjusted as provided below in paragraph 2(a)(v).
(ii) Extraordinary Distributions. If at any time
after the date of issuance of this Warrant, the Company shall distribute to all
holders of Common Stock (including any such distribution made in connection with
a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing or surviving
corporation and Common Stock is not changed or exchanged) cash, evidences of
indebtedness, securities or other assets
Page 30 of 78 Pages
4
(excluding (i) ordinary course cash dividends to the extent such dividends do
not exceed the Company's retained earnings and (ii) dividends payable in shares
of capital stock for which adjustment is made under Section 2(a)(i) or rights,
options or warrants to subscribe for or purchase securities of the Company),
then in each such case the number of shares of Common Stock to be delivered to
such Holder upon exercise of this Warrant shall be increased so that the Holder
thereafter shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of Common Stock
determined by multiplying the number of shares such Holder would have been
entitled to receive immediately before such record date by a fraction, the
denominator of which shall be the Exercise Price on such record date minus the
then fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Board of Directors of
the Company in good faith) of the portion of the cash, evidences of
indebtedness, securities or other assets so distributed or of such rights or
warrants applicable to one share of the Common Stock (provided that such
denominator shall in no event be less than $.01) and the numerator of which
shall be the Exercise Price.
(iii) Reorganization, etc. If at any time after
the date of issuance of this Warrant any consolidation of the Company with or
merger of the Company with or into any other Person (other than a merger or
consolidation in which the Company is the surviving or continuing corporation
and which does not result in any reclassification of, or change (other than a
change in par value or from par value to no par value or from no par value to
par value, or as a result of a subdivision or combination) in, outstanding
shares of either Common Stock) or any sale, lease or other transfer of all or
substantially all of the assets of the Company to any other person (each, a
"Reorganization Event"), shall be effected in such a way that the holders of the
Common Stock shall be entitled to receive cash, stock, other securities or
assets (whether such cash, stock, other securities or assets are issued or
distributed by the Company or another Person) with respect to or in exchange for
the Common Stock, then, upon exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the
right to receive the kind and amount of cash, stock, other securities or assets
receivable upon such Reorganization Event by a holder of the number of shares of
the Common Stock that such holder would have been entitled to receive upon
exercise of this Warrant had this Warrant been exercised immediately before such
Reorganization Event, subject to adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent
as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for in this Section 2(a). The
Company shall not enter into any of the transactions referred to in this Section
2(a)(iii) unless effective provision shall be made so as to give effect to the
provisions set forth in this Section 2(a)(iii).
(iv) Carryover. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Section 2(a), no adjustment shall be made to the number of
shares of either Common Stock to be delivered to the Holder (or to the Exercise
Price) if such adjustment represents less than .05% of the number of shares to
be so delivered, but any lesser adjustment shall be carried forward and shall be
made at the time and together with the next subsequent adjustment that together
with any adjustments so carried forward shall amount to .05% or more of the
number of shares to be so delivered.

(v) Exercise Price Adjustment.
(i) Whenever the Number Issuable upon the
exercise of the Warrant is adjusted as provided pursuant to this Section 2(a),
the Exercise Price per share payable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be
adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment
by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the Number Issuable upon the
exercise of the Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, and of which the
denominator shall be the Number Issuable immediately thereafter; provided,
however, that the Exercise Price for each Share of the Common Stock shall in no
event be less than the par value of a share of such Common Stock.
(ii) If the price at which the Next Round
Securities are convertible into shares of Common Stock is adjusted pursuant to
documents that create and define the Next Round Securities, then the Exercise
Price of the Warrants shall be adjusted accordingly provided that there should
be no duplication of adjustments.
(b) Notice of Adjustment. Whenever the Number Issuable or the
Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly mail
by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holder, notice of such adjustment
or adjustments setting forth the Number Issuable and the Exercise Price after
such adjustment, setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such
adjustment and setting forth the computation by which such adjustment was made.
Section 3. No Redemption. The Company shall not have any right to
redeem any of the Warrants evidenced hereby.
Section 4. Notice of Certain Events. In case at any time or from
time to time (i) the Company shall declare any dividend or any other
distribution to the holders of Common Stock, (ii) the Company shall authorize
the granting to the holders of Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe
for or purchase any additional shares of stock of any class or any other right,
(iii) the Company shall authorize the issuance or sale of any other shares or
rights which would result in an adjustment to the Number Issuable pursuant to
Section 2(a)(i), (ii), or (iii), or (iv) there shall be any capital
reorganization or reclassification of Common Stock of the Company or
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another Person, or any sale
or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Company, or
(v) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or
winding up of the Company, then, in any one or more of such cases the Company
shall mail to the Holder at such Holder's address as it appears on the transfer
books of the Company, as promptly as practicable but in any event at least 10
days prior to the date on which the transactions contemplated in Section
2(a)(i), (ii), or (iii), a notice stating (a) the date on which a record is to
be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, rights or warrants or,
if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of record of
either Common Stock to be entitled to
Page 32 of 78 Pages
6
such dividend, distribution, rights or warrants are to be determined, or (b) the
date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective. Such
notice also shall specify the date as of which it is expected that the holders
of record of the Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange the Common Stock for
shares of stock or other securities or property or cash deliverable upon such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance,
dissolution, liquidation or winding up.
Section 5. Certain Covenants. The Company covenants and agrees that
all shares of Capital Stock of the Company which may be issued upon the exercise
of the Warrants evidenced hereby will be duly authorized, validly issued and
fully paid and nonassessable. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep
available for issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants, such number of its
authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock as will from time to time be
sufficient to permit the exercise of all outstanding Warrants, and shall take
all action required to increase the authorized number of shares of Common Stock
if at any time there shall be insufficient authorized but unissued shares of
Common Stock to permit such reservation or to permit the exercise of all
outstanding Warrants.
Section 6. Registered Holder. The persons in whose names this
Warrant Certificate is registered shall be deemed the owner hereof and of the
Warrants evidenced hereby for all purposes. The registered Holder of this
Warrant Certificate, in their capacity as such, shall not be entitled to any
rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company, except as herein provided.

represented by this Warrant Certificate shall be effected by the surrender of
this Warrant Certificate, along with the form of assignment attached hereto,

transfer, in the name of the registered Holder hereof, a new Warrant Certificate
or Certificates evidencing the right to purchase such number of shares of Common
Stock as shall be equal to the number of shares of Common Stock then purchasable

expense, promptly upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate at the principal

this Warrant Certificate and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, upon
delivery of an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company (in the case of

SENIOR CONVERTIBLE NOTE
$_________________
New York, New York May __, 2000
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, BLUEFLY, INC., a New York
corporation (the "Payor" or the "Company"), promises to pay to the order of
_________ or its registered assign (the "Payee"), the principal sum of _________
DOLLARS ($_________) and interest on the outstanding principal balance as set
forth herein.
1. Securities Purchase Agreement. This Senior Convertible Note is
the Senior Convertible Note issued pursuant to the Note and Warrant Purchase
Agreement, dated as of May __, 2000, among the Payor, the Payee and _________
(the "Securities Purchase Agreement"). The Payee is entitled to the benefits of
(and subject to the obligations expressly contained in) this Senior Convertible
Note and the Securities Purchase Agreement and may enforce the agreements of the
Payor contained herein and therein and exercise the remedies provided for hereby
and thereby or otherwise available in respect hereto and thereto. Capitalized
terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning ascribed to such
terms in the Securities Purchase Agreement.
2. Interest Rate; Payment.
(a) The outstanding principal balance of this Senior Convertible
Note shall bear interest at an annual rate equal to 8% per annum, with interest
accruing, from and including the date hereof, on a cumulative, compounding
basis. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year, as the
case may be, and the actual number of days elapsed, and shall be payable only
upon repayment of the principal on any Repayment Date (as defined below).
Page 38 of 78 Pages

(b) The outstanding balance of any amount owed under this Senior
Convertible Note which is not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of
2% per annum (the "Default Interest") above the rate that would otherwise be in
effect under this Senior Convertible Note with the Default Interest accruing,
from and including such due date, on a cumulative, compounding basis.
(c) The outstanding principal and all accrued and unpaid interest
shall be paid in full no later than January 2, 2002 (the "Maturity Date"),
unless repaid earlier pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 (the date of any
payment pursuant to Section 3 and the Maturity Date, collectively referred to as
a "Repayment Date"). On a Repayment Date, the Payor shall pay the applicable
amount of principal and interest in lawful money of the United States of America
by wire or bank transfer of immediately available funds to an account designated
by the Payee in writing from time to time.
(3) Prepayment.
(a) Mandatory Prepayment.
(i) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
(as defined in Section 5), the outstanding principal of and all accrued interest
on this Senior Convertible Note shall be accelerated and shall automatically
become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or
notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived by the Payor,
notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary.
(ii) The Payee shall, at its sole option, have
the right to require the Payor to pay the outstanding principal of and all
accrued interest on this Senior Convertible Note upon the occurrence of any of
the following events: (1) Payor entering into an agreement to effectuate any
sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets, in one
transaction or in a series of transactions, (2) the Company entering into an
agreement to effectuate any consolidation or merger into another entity, or (3)
any sale of a majority of the outstanding equity of the Company (or any other
event that constitutes a Change of Control of the Payor), in one transaction or
in a series of transactions. Immediately upon the occurrence of either of the
events set forth in clauses (1) or (2) above, or immediately upon obtaining
knowledge that any person has entered into an agreement to effectuate, the event
set forth in clause (3) above, the Payor shall give written notice of such event
to the Payee. Change of Control means any Person or "group" (within the meaning
of Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) other than a Principal Shareholder,
becoming the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of outstanding shares of
stock of the Company entitling such Person or Persons to exercise 50% or more of
the total votes entitled to be cast at a regular or special meeting, or by
action by written consent, of the stockholders of the Company in the election of
directors (the term "beneficial owner" shall be determined in accordance with
Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act).

(iii) Any mandatory prepayment under this Section
3(a) shall include payment of reasonable costs and expenses, if any, associated
with such prepayment.
(b) Optional Prepayment. The Payor may prepay all or any portion of
this Senior Convertible Note, at any time, by paying an amount equal to the
outstanding principal amount of this Senior Convertible Note, or the portion of
this Senior Convertible Note called for prepayment, together with interest
accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of prepayment and any other amounts due
under this Senior Convertible Note and the Securities Purchase Agreement,
without penalty or premium.
4. Mandatory Conversion.
(a) This Senior Convertible Note plus interest accrued and unpaid
thereon shall be automatically converted simultaneously with the Next Round
Financing (the "Triggering Event') into that number of fully paid and
non-assessable Next Round Securities which is equal to the quotient obtained by
dividing the then outstanding principal amount of this Senior Convertible Note
plus interest accrued and unpaid thereon to the date of conversion by the price
per Next Round Security paid in the Next Round Financing.
(b) Promptly after the Triggering Event the Company shall deliver or
cause to be delivered to the holder of this Senior Convertible Note a
certificate or certificates representing the number of fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Next Round Securities into which this Senior
Convertible Note may be converted. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been
made simultaneously with the conclusion of the Next Round Financing, so that the
rights of the holder as a holder of this Senior Convertible Note shall cease
with respect to this Senior Convertible Note at such time (including, without
limitation, the right to receive the principal of this Senior Convertible Note
other than in the form of Next Round Securities), interest shall cease to accrue
hereon and the person or persons entitled to receive the Next Round Securities
deliverable upon conversion of this Senior Convertible Note shall be treated for
all purposes as having become the record holders of such Next Round Securities
at such time, and such conversion shall be at the conversion rate in effect at
such time.
(c) The Company covenants that it will at all times reserve and keep
available out of its authorized Next Round Securities (at such time as such
Securities are authorized) solely for the purpose of issue or delivery upon
conversion of this Senior Convertible Note as herein provided, such number of
Next Round Securities as shall then be issuable or deliverable upon the
conversion of this Senior Convertible Note. The Company covenants that all Next
Round Securities which shall be so issuable or deliverable shall, when issued or
delivered, be duly and validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable.

interest shall continue unremedied for two days;

entered into in the ordinary course of business) in excess of $50,000 in the
aggregate for borrowed money or any obligation which is the substantive
equivalent thereof and such default shall continue for more than the period of
grace, if any, or of any such Indebtedness or obligation shall be declared due
and payable prior to the stated maturity thereof;
(h) the Payor shall incur any indebtedness senior to this Senior
