Costa Mesa, California 92626

Gentlemen:

1.   General. Bluegate Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company") is
offering for sale 200,000 units (the "Units") at a price of $.50 per Unit. Each
Unit consists of one share of the Company's common stock, and one Class A and
one Class B redeemable common stock purchase warrant (the "Warrants"). The Units
are being offered to the public by the Company on an "all or none" basis in
accordance with the terms set forth in the prospectus dated ___________, 2001
(the "Prospectus"), a copy of which accompanied this Subscription Agreement.

     The offering commenced on the date of the Prospectus and will end the
earlier of the receipt and acceptance of subscriptions for 200,000 Units or 90
days after the date of the Prospectus. The terms of the offering are more fully
described in the Prospectus and such terms are incorporated herein in their
entirety. Any capitalized term which is used but is not defined herein but which
is defined in the Prospectus shall have the same meaning as is ascribed to such
term in the Prospectus.

2.   Subscription. The undersigned subscriber (the "Subscriber") hereby
irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from the Company, subject to
the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus, the number of Units set
forth on the signature page hereof at a purchase price of Fifty Cents ($0.50)
per Unit (the "Subscription Price"), payable in lawful money of the United
States of America.

3.   Payment of Subscription Price. Subscriber shall promptly mail or otherwise
deliver a signed copy of this Subscription Agreement to Corporate Stock
Transfer, Inc., 3200 Cherry Creek Drive South, Suite 430, Denver, Colorado 80209
as escrow agent (the "Escrow Agent"), together with a check or wire transfer
payment for the aggregate Subscription Price of the Units subscribed for
hereunder. All checks should be made payable to "Corporate Stock Transfer as
Escrow Agent for Bluegate Corporation", and all wire transfer payments should be
made in accordance with the instructions attached hereto. In the event the
subscription is rejected or reduced, any portion of the aggregate Subscription
Price so deposited which is not to be applied to the purchase of Units will be
promptly refunded. Funds representing the Subscription Price will be deposited
into an escrow account (the "Escrow Account") established at and maintained by
the Escrow Agent with Key Bank National Association, World Trade Center Branch,
1675 Broadway, Suite 200, Denver, Colorado 80202 as escrow holder (the "Escrow
Holder"). The funds held in the Escrow Account shall be released and delivered
at the times and upon the terms and conditions described in the Prospectus.

4.   Deposit of Securities. After subscriptions for 200,000 Units have been
received and accepted by the Company and subscription funds in the aggregate
amount of $100,000 have been deposited into the Escrow Account, the Company
shall deposit into the Escrow Account a stock certificate and warrant
certificates issued in Subscriber's name for the total number of Units purchased
by Subscriber hereunder. The certificates held in the Escrow Account shall be
released and delivered at the times and upon the terms and conditions described
in the Prospectus.

5.   Acceptance of Subscription. Subscriber understands and agrees that the
Company, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to accept or reject this or
any other subscription for Units, in whole or in part, notwithstanding prior
receipt by Subscriber of notice of acceptance of this subscription. The Company
shall have no obligation hereunder until the Company shall execute and deliver
to Subscriber an executed copy of this Subscription Agreement. If this
subscription is rejected in whole, all funds received from Subscriber will be
returned without interest and without penalty, expense or deduction, and this
Subscription Agreement shall thereafter be of no further force or effect. If
this subscription is rejected in part, the funds for the rejected portion of
this subscription will be returned without interest, penalty, expense or
deduction, and this Subscription Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect to the extent this subscription was accepted.

6.   Representations and Warranties of Subscriber. Subscriber hereby represents
and warrants to the Company that:

     (a)  Subscriber has received and carefully reviewed a copy of the
Prospectus; understands and has evaluated the risks of a purchase of the Units,

the escrowed funds or escrowed securities during an escrow period that may
extend for up to 18 months after the date of the Prospectus; that during the

securities except by will or pursuant to the laws of intestacy, a qualified
domestic relations order as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as
amended, or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act ("ERISA");
and that if Subscriber exercises the Warrants during the escrow period, the
exercise price paid and the shares purchased will be deposited and held in the
Escrow Account, Subscriber will not have access to the escrowed funds or warrant
shares during the escrow period nor will Subscriber have the right to transfer
the warrant shares during the escrow period except as described in the preceding
clause, and the funds representing the exercise price and the certificates
