         This Subscription Agreement is made and entered into by and between
DIGITAL FUSION, INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Madison Run
LLC (the "Investor") with respect to the purchase by the Investor of common
stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock") of the Company and a
warrant to purchase such Common Stock (the "Warrant") pursuant hereto.

         In consideration of the Company's agreement to accept the Investor's
subscription of shares of the Common Stock and the Warrant upon the terms and
conditions set forth in this Subscription Agreement, the Company and the
Investor agree and represent as follows:

A. SUBSCRIPTION

the Investor the right to purchase 304,054 shares of Common Stock at a price of
$0.89 per share and 212,839 shares of Common Stock at a price of $0.94 per share
(together, the "Underlying Shares") for a total consideration of $450,000 (the
"Purchase Price"). Simultaneously with the execution of this Subscription
Agreement, the Investor shall pay and deliver to the Company the Purchase Price
in the form of a check or wire transfer payable to "Digital Fusion, Inc." Upon
acceptance of this subscription, the Company will issue to the Purchaser the
Shares and the Warrant.

B. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

         1. The Shares and the Underlying Shares are duly authorized for
issuance and, upon payment of the Purchase Price (or the Warrant exercise price
with respect to the Underlying Shares) as contemplated by this Subscription
Agreement (or the Warrant with respect to the Underlying Shares), will be
validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable. The Underlying Shares have
been duly reserved for issuance by the Company. The rights, preferences,
privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon the Common Stock and the
holders thereof are as set forth in the certificate of incorporation of the
Company, as amended to the date of this Subscription Agreement, a true and
complete copy of which has been delivered to the Investor.

         2. The Company is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Delaware, and has all required power and
authority to own and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its
business as now conducted and as proposed to be conducted. The Company is in

operations, except in jurisdictions in which the failure to be in good standing
has not had and reasonably could not be expected to have a material adverse
effect.

         3. The Company has all requisite corporate power and authority to enter
into and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement and Warrant.
The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of this Subscription
Agreement and Warrant have been duly authorized by all necessary action. This
Subscription Agreement and Warrant have been duly and validly executed and
delivered by the Company and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations
of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with their terms, except
(a) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors' rights,
and (b) general principles of equity that restrict the availability of equitable
or legal remedies.

shares of Common Stock at an average purchase price of $4.74 expiring on or
before April 29, 2010, there are no outstanding or authorized subscriptions,

with respect to the voting of any shares of capital stock of the Company or the
Subsidiary and, to the knowledge of the Company, there are no such trusts,

stockholders with respect to any shares of the Common Stock. The Company is not

acquire or retire any shares of its Common Stock or any security convertible
into or exchangeable for any of its Common Stock.

         5. The Company and its Board of Directors has taken all necessary steps
to render any "business combination," "moratorium," "control share" or other
state anti-takeover statute or regulation applicable to the Company inapplicable
to the Investor, the Shares, the holder of the Warrant, the Underlying Shares
and the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the
Warrant.

         6. The execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription
Agreement and the Warrant do not and will not and the issuance of the Underlying

pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened against the Company in
any court or before any governmental commission, board or authority which, if
adversely determined, will have a material adverse effect on the Company, its
financial condition or its prospects, or its ability to perform its obligations
under this Subscription Agreement or the Warrant.

         8. The Company's common stock is traded on the Bulletin Board, and the
Company has taken all steps to make the Shares and the Underlying Shares
eligible for trading on the Bulletin Board (assuming that such Shares and
Underlying Shares are subject to resale under the Securities Act of 1933).

         11. No representation or warranty by the Company contained in this
Subscription Agreement or any information in any schedule, instrument, or
document furnished or to be furnished pursuant hereto, contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits or fails to state any material fact
necessary in order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the
circumstances in which made, not misleading.

         12. The foregoing representations and warranties are true and accurate
as of the date of this Subscription Agreement, shall be true and accurate as of
the date of the acceptance of this Subscription Agreement by the Investor and
shall survive thereafter. If such representations or warranties shall not be
true and accurate in any respect, the Company will, prior to such acceptance,
give written notice of such fact to the Investor specifying which
representations and warranties are not true and accurate and the reasons
therefore.

         13. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and any
of its respective officers, employees, registered representatives, directors or

any actual or alleged misrepresentation or misstatement of facts, or omission to
represent or state facts, made by the Company to the Investor in connection with
this Subscription Agreement, the Warrant and the transactions set forth herein
and therein, against losses, liabilities, and expenses actually and reasonably
incurred by the undersigned prospective purchaser or any of its respective
officers, employees, registered representatives, directors or control persons
(including attorney's fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding.

         The Company has delivered to the Investor a certificate of an officer
of the Company in form satisfactory to the Investor certifying and attaching the
Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, the Bylaws of the Company and the
minutes of the Board of Directors and any committee of the Board of Directors
organizing the Company and authorizing the execution and delivery of this
Subscription Agreement and the Warrant, and authorizing the issuance of the
Shares and the Underlying Shares.

C. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE INVESTOR

         1. The offer and sale of the Shares and Warrant is intended to be
exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, (the "Act") and/or Regulation D promulgated under the Act. In
furtherance thereof, the Investor represents and warrants to the Company as
follows:

                  (a) The Shares and Warrant are being purchased for the account
of the Investor for investment purposes only and not for the account of any
other person, and not with a view to distribution, assignment or resale to
others or to fractionalization in whole or in part.

                  (b) No other person has or will have a direct or indirect
beneficial interest in the Shares or Warrant and the Investor will not sell,
hypothecate or otherwise transfer the Shares or Warrant except in accordance
with the registration provisions of the Act and applicable state securities
laws, unless an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Company and its counsel is
provided which states that an exemption from the registration requirements of
the Act and applicable state securities laws is available.

                  (c) In evaluating the suitability of an investment in the
Company, the Investor has not relied upon any representations or other
information (whether oral or written) from the Company or any of its agents
other than as set forth in the Company's Periodic Reports, in this Subscription
Agreement, in the Warrant and in documents provided pursuant to Section C.1.(d)
of this Subscription Agreement. No oral or written representations have been
made, or oral or written information furnished to, the Investor or its advisors,
if any, in connection with the offering of the Shares which were in any way
inconsistent with the Periodic Reports.

<PAGE>

                  (d) The Company has made available to the Investor all
documents and information that the Investor has requested relating to an
investment in the Company.

                  (e) The Investor recognizes that an investment in the Company
involves substantial risks and represents that the Investor has taken full
cognizance of and understands all of the risks related to the purchase of the
Shares and Warrant. The Investor can bear the economic risk of losing the entire
investment in the Shares and Warrant.

                  (f) The Investor has carefully considered and has, to the
extent he, she or it believes such discussion to be necessary, discussed with
his, her or its professional legal, tax and financial advisers the suitability
of an investment in the Company, and the Investor has determined that the Shares
and Warrant are a suitable investment for the Investor.

                  (g) The statements and information set forth in the Entities
Investor Qualification Questionnaire (the "Questionnaire") and attached to this
Subscription Agreement as Exhibit A, are true, accurate and complete. All
information which the Investor has provided to the Company concerning the
Investor and the Investor's financial position is correct and complete as of the
date set forth below, and if there should be any change in such information
prior to the Company's acceptance of the Investor's subscription for the Shares
and Warrant, the Investor will immediately provide such information to the
Company and will promptly send confirmation of such information to the Company.

                  (h) The Investor's overall commitment to investments which are
not readily marketable is not disproportionate to the Investor's net worth, and
the Investor's investment in the Shares and Warrant will not cause such overall
commitment to become excessive.

                  (i) The Investor has adequate means of providing for its
current needs and personal contingencies and has no need for liquidity in its
investment in the Shares and Warrant.

                  (j) If this Subscription Agreement is executed and delivered
on behalf of an entity, the person executing and delivering this Subscription
Agreement has been duly authorized and is duly qualified to (i) execute and
deliver this Subscription Agreement and all other instruments executed and
delivered on behalf of the Investor in connection with the purchase of the
Shares and Warrant, and (ii) purchase and hold the Shares and Warrant. The
signature of the person executing and delivering this Subscription Agreement is
binding upon such entity and such entity has not been formed for the specific
purpose of acquiring the Shares and Warrant.

         2. The foregoing representations and warranties are true and accurate
as of the date of this Subscription Agreement, shall be true and accurate as of
the date of the acceptance of this Subscription Agreement by the Company and
shall survive thereafter. If such representations or warranties shall not be
true and accurate in any respect, the Investor will, prior to such acceptance,
give written notice of such fact to the Company specifying which representations
and warranties are not true and accurate and the reasons therefor.

         3. The Investor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company and any
of its respective officers, employees, registered representatives, directors or
control persons who were or are a party to, or are 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, or arising from
any actual or alleged misrepresentation or misstatement of facts, or omission to
represent or state facts, made by the Investor to the Company, concerning the
Investor or its financial position, in connection with the offering and sale of
the Shares and Warrant, against losses, liabilities and expenses actually and
reasonably incurred by the Company or any of its respective officers, employees,
registered representatives, directors or control persons (including attorneys'
fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement) in connection with such
action, suit or proceeding.

D. INVESTOR INFORMATION

that term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Act
("Accredited Investor"). In furnishing the information set forth in the

thereon in determining, among other things, whether there are reasonable grounds
to believe that the Investor and its members qualify as an Accredited Investor
under the Act.

Shares shall be marked with the following legend:

         THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
         1933, AS AMENDED OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD OR

         AS TO THE SECURITIES UNDER SAID ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
         LAW OR THE AVAILABILITY OF AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SAID

F. REGISTRATION RIGHTS

         1.       Company Registration

                  A. Notice of Registration. If at any time or from time to time
the Company shall determine to register any of its securities, either for its
own account or the account of a security holder or holders, other than (i) a
registration relating solely to employee benefit plans on Form S-8 (or any
successor form) or (ii) a registration relating solely to a Commission Rule 145
transaction on Form S-4 (or any successor form), the Company will:

                           (1) promptly give to the Investor written notice
thereof, and

                           (2) include in such registration (and any related
qualification under blue sky laws or other compliance), and in any underwriting
involved therein, all the Shares specified in a written request or requests,
made within 15 days after delivery of such written notice from the Company
described in Section F.1.A.(1), by the Investor. For purposes of this Section F,
the term "Shares" shall also refer to the "Underlying Shares."

                  B. Underwriting. If the registration of which the Company
gives notice is for a registered public offering involving an underwriting, the
Company shall so advise the Investor as a part of the written notice described
above. In such event, the right of the Investor to registration pursuant to this
Section F.1 shall be conditioned upon the Investor's participation in such
underwriting and the inclusion of the Shares in the underwriting to the extent
provided herein. The Investor shall (together with the Company) enter into an
underwriting agreement in customary form with the managing underwriter selected
for such underwriting by the Company.

<PAGE>

                           (1) If the managing underwriter determines in good
faith that marketing factors (including pricing) require a limitation of the
number of shares to be underwritten, the underwriter may exclude some or all of
the Shares from such registration and underwriting. The Company shall so advise
Investor, and the number of shares of Common Stock to be included in such
registration shall be allocated as follows: first, for the account of the
Company, all shares of Common Stock proposed to be sold by the Company; second,
for the account of the Investor, the number of the Shares requested to be
included in the registration up to the amount of the limitation imposed by the
managing underwriter; and third, for the account of any other investor that has
been granted registration rights with respect to shares of Common Stock on the
terms and conditions of any agreement pertaining to such registration rights.

                           (2) If the Investor disapproves of the terms of any
such underwriting, the Investor may elect to withdraw therefrom by written
notice to the Company and the managing underwriter. Any securities excluded or
withdrawn from such underwriting shall be withdrawn from such registration.

                           (3) The Company shall have the right to terminate or
withdraw any registration initiated by it under this Section F.1 prior to the
effectiveness of such registration, whether or not the Investor has elected to
include any or all of the Shares in such registration.

                  C. Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses
incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance
pursuant to this Section F.1 shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses
relating to the Shares shall be borne by the Investor.

         2.       Demand Registration

                  A. Request for Registration.

                           (1) In addition to the rights set forth in above, if,
on one occasion, the Investor requests that the Company file a registration
statement for a public offering of the Shares having an aggregate offering price
of at least $2,000,000 (based on the then current market price), the Company
shall use its best efforts to cause such shares to be registered for the
offering as soon as practicable.

                           (2) The Company shall file a registration statement
covering the Shares so requested to be registered within 90 days after receipt
of the request of the Investor; provided, however, that if the Company shall
furnish to the Investor a certificate signed by the Chairman or Chief Executive
Officer of the Company stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board of
Directors of the Company, it would be detrimental to the Company and its
stockholders for such registration statement to be filed on or before the date
filing would be required, and it is therefore essential to defer the filing of
such registration statement, the Company shall have the right to defer such
filing for a period of not more than 90 days, but in no event for a period
longer than 180 days after receipt of the request of the Investor; provided,
further, that the Company shall not be permitted to exercise such deferral right
more than once in any 360-day period.

<PAGE>

                  B. Underwriting.

                           (1) The distribution of the Shares covered by the
registration statement shall be effected by means of the method of distribution
selected by the Investor.

                           (2) If the distribution of the Shares pursuant to
this Section F.2 is effected by means of an underwriting, the Company and the
Investor shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with a
managing underwriter selected for such underwriting by the Investor.

                  C. Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses
incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance
pursuant to this Section F.2 shall be borne by the Investor. All Selling
Expenses relating to the Shares shall be borne by the Investor.

         3.       Registration Procedures

                  A. In the case of each registration effected by the Company
pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Company will keep the Investor
advised in writing as to the initiation of each registration and as to the
completion thereof. The Company agrees to use its best efforts to effect or
cause such registration to permit the sale of the Shares covered thereby by the
Investor in accordance with the intended method or methods of distribution
thereof described in such registration statement and to keep such registration
statement in effect and comply with such laws so as to permit the continuance of
offers, sales and dealings therein for so long as may be necessary to enable the
Investor, agent or underwriter to complete its distribution of the Shares
pursuant to such registration statement. In connection with any registration of
any of the Shares, the Company shall, as soon as reasonably possible:

                           (1) use its best efforts to cause the registration
statement filed for purposes of such registration to become effective as soon as
reasonably possible thereafter;

                           (2) prepare and file with the Commission such
amendments and supplements to such registration statement and the prospectus
included therein as may be necessary to effect and maintain the effectiveness of
such registration statement as may be required by the applicable rules and
regulations of the Commission and the instructions applicable to the form of
such registration statement, and furnish to the Investor copies of any such
supplement or amendment prior to this being used and/or filed with the
Commission; and comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to
the disposition of all the Shares to be included in such registration statement;

                           (3) provide (A) the Investor, (B) the underwriters
(which term, for purposes of this Agreement, shall include a person deemed to be
an underwriter within the meaning of Section 2(11) of the Securities Act), if
any, thereof, (C) the sales or placement agent, if any, therefor, (D) one
counsel for such underwriters or agent, and (E) one counsel for the Investor,
the opportunity to participate in the preparation of such registration
statement, each prospectus included therein or filed with the Commission, and
each amendment or supplement thereto;

                           (4) for a reasonable period prior to the filing of
such registration statement, and throughout the period of effectiveness of the
registration statement, make available for inspection by the parties referred to
above such financial and other information and books and records of the Company,
and cause the officers, directors, employees, counsel and independent certified
public accountants of the Company to respond to such inquiries, as shall be
reasonably necessary, in the judgment of the respective counsel referred to
above, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the
Securities Act; provided, however, that each such party shall be required to
maintain in confidence and not disclose to any other person or entity any
information or records reasonably designated by the Company in writing as being
confidential, until such time as (a) such information becomes a matter of public
record (whether by virtue of its inclusion in such registration statement or
otherwise), or (b) such party shall be required so to disclose such information
pursuant to the subpoena or order of any court or other governmental agency or
body having jurisdiction over the matter, or (c) such information is required to
be set forth in such registration statement or the prospectus included therein
or in an amendment to such registration statement or an amendment or supplement

prospectus supplement or amendment so that, as thereafter delivered to the
purchasers of the Shares, such prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of
the circumstances then existing.

         5.       Indemnification

                  A. The Company will indemnify the Investor, each of its
officers and directors and members, and the Investor's legal counsel and
independent accountants, if any, and each person controlling any such persons
within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, with respect to which
registration, qualification or compliance has been effected pursuant to this
Subscription Agreement, and each underwriter, if any, and each person who
controls any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act,
against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (or actions in
respect thereof), including any of the foregoing incurred in settlement of any
litigation, commenced or threatened ("Damages"), arising out of or based on any
untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in
any registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document, or
any amendment or supplement thereof, incident to any such registration,
qualification or compliance, or based on any omission (or alleged omission) to
state therein, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein, not misleading, or any violation by the Company of
any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act or any state
securities laws applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction by
the Company in connection with any such registration, qualification or
compliance, and will reimburse the Investor, each of its officers and directors
and members and the Investor's legal counsel and independent accountants, and
each person controlling any such persons, each such underwriter and each person
who controls any such underwriter, for any legal and any other expenses

<PAGE>

reasonably incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any
such claim, loss, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the
Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such claim,
loss, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based on any untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission, made in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the
Investor (or its members, legal counsel, independent accountants, control
persons or other representatives) or underwriter and expressly intended for use
in such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or other document,
or any amendment or supplement thereof, and the Investor, or the holder of the
Warrant, as the case may be, will, if Shares are included in the securities as
to which such registration, qualification, or compliance is being effected,
indemnify the Company, its officers, directors, legal counsel, independent
accountants, if any, and each person controlling any such persons within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act for Damages arising out of or based
on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact
contained in any such registration statement, prospectus, offering circular or
other document, or any amendment or supplement thereto, incident to any such
registration, qualification or compliance or based on any omission (or alleged
omission) to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the
extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement (or alleged untrue
statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is made in such registration
statement, prospectus, offering circular, other document or amendment or
supplement in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by the Investor or holder of the Warrant, as the case may be, and
expressly intended for use in such registration statement, prospectus, offering
circular or other document, or any amendment or supplement thereof; provided,
however, that the obligations of the Investor and the holder of the Warrant
hereunder shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds to the Investor or
the holder of the Warrant sold as contemplated herein.

                  B. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section
F.5 (the "Indemnified Party") shall give notice to the party required to provide
indemnification (the "Indemnifying Party") promptly after such Indemnified Party
has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, and shall
permit the Indemnifying Party to assume the defense of any such claim or any
litigation resulting therefrom, provided that counsel for the Indemnifying
Party, who shall conduct the defense of such claim or litigation, shall be
approved by the Indemnified Party (whose approval shall not unreasonably be
withheld). The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at such party's
expense; provided, however, that the Indemnifying Party shall bear the expense
of such defense of the Indemnified Party if representation of both parties by
the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of
interest. The failure of any Indemnified Party to give notice as provided herein
shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party its obligations under this Agreement,
unless such failure is prejudicial to the ability of the Indemnifying Party to
defend the action. The Indemnifying Party shall not, in the defense of any such
claim or litigation, except with the consent of each Indemnified Party, consent
to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as
an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such
Indemnified Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation.

         6. Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available the benefits of
certain rules and regulations of the Commission which may at any time permit the
sale of securities of the Company to the public without registration, the
Company agrees to:

Securities Act and the Exchange Act ; and

                  C. So long as the Investor owns any of the Shares, furnish to
the Investor forthwith upon request a written statement by the Company as to its
compliance with the reporting requirements of said Rule 144 and of the
Securities Act and the Exchange Act , a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of the Company, and such other reports and documents of the
Company as the Investor may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or
regulation of the Commission allowing the Investor to sell any such securities
without registration.

         7. Transfer of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the Company to
register the Shares granted the Investor under this Subscription Agreement may

providing for the grant to such holder of registration rights superior to, or

                    WARRANT TO PURCHASE UP TO 516,893 SHARES
                        OF COMMON STOCK (this "Warrant")

Warrant No.:  001

         Digital Fusion, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), hereby
certifies that, for value received, Madison Run LLC (Madison Run LLC or its
assignees are referred to herein as the "Holder") is the registered Holder of a
warrant (the "Warrant") to subscribe for and purchase 304,054 shares of the
fully paid and nonassessable Common Stock of the Company, at a purchase price of
$0.89 per share and 212,839 shares of Common Stock of the Company (each such
number of shares, as adjusted from time to time, pursuant to Section 4 hereof,
is, with respect to any specific exercise of the Warrant, referred to herein as
the "Warrant Shares") at a price of $0.94 per share (each such price, as
adjusted from time to time, pursuant to Section 4 hereof, is, with respect to
any specific exercise of the Warrant, referred to herein as the "Warrant
Price"), subject to the provisions and upon the terms and conditions hereinafter
set forth. As used herein, (a) the term "Common Stock" shall mean the Company's
presently authorized Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, and any stock into
or for which such Common Stock may hereafter be converted or exchanged, (b) the
term "Date of Grant" shall mean May ___, 2004, and (c) the term "Other Warrants"
shall mean any warrant issued upon transfer or partial exercise of this Warrant.
The term "Warrant" as used herein shall be deemed to include Other Warrants
unless the context hereof or thereof clearly requires otherwise.

     1. Term. The purchase right represented by this Warrant is exercisable, in
whole or in part, at any time after the Date of Grant (the "Initial Exercise
Date"). This Warrant shall expire on May __, 2009.

<PAGE>

     2. Exercise. Subject to Section 1 hereof, the purchase right represented by
this Warrant may be exercised by the Holder hereof, in whole or in part and from
time to time after the Initial Exercise Date, by the surrender of this Warrant
(with the notice of exercise form attached hereto as Exhibit A duly executed) at
the principal office of the Company and by the payment to the Company of an
amount equal to the then applicable Warrant Price multiplied by the number of
Warrant Shares then being purchased. The person or persons in whose name(s) any
certificate(s) representing shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become the Holder(s) of record
of, and shall be treated for all purposes as the record Holder(s) of, the shares
represented thereby (and such shares shall be deemed to have been issued)
immediately prior to the close of business on the date or dates upon which this
Warrant is exercised. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by
this Warrant, certificates for the shares of stock so purchased shall be
delivered to the Holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within 30
days after such exercise and, unless this Warrant has been fully exercised, a
new Warrant representing the portion of the Warrant Shares, if any, with respect
to which this Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to
the Holder hereof as soon as possible and in any event within such 30-day
period.

     3. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. All Warrant Shares that may be
issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant will, upon
issuance pursuant to the terms and conditions herein, be fully paid and
nonassessable, and free from all taxes (other than any taxes determined with
respect to, or based upon, the income of the person to whom such shares are
issued), liens and charges (other than liens or charges created by actions of
the Holder of this Warrant or the person to whom such shares are issued), and
pre-emptive rights with respect to the issue thereof. During the period within
which the rights represented by this Warrant may be exercised, the Company will
at all times have authorized, and reserved for the purpose of the issue upon
exercise of the purchase rights evidenced by this Warrant, a sufficient number
of shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights
represented by this Warrant.

     4. Adjustment of Warrant Price and Number of Shares. The number and kind of
securities purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant and the Warrant Price
shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain
events, as follows:

          a. Reclassification or Merger. In case of any reclassification, change
or conversion of securities of the class issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
(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), or in
case of any merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a
merger with another corporation in which the Company is the acquiring and the
surviving corporation and which does not result in any reclassification or
change of outstanding securities issuable upon exercise of this Warrant), or in
case of any sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, the
Company, or such successor or purchasing corporation, as the case may be, shall
duly execute and deliver to the Holder of this Warrant a new Warrant (in form
and substance satisfactory to the Holder of this Warrant), so that the Holder of
this Warrant shall have the right to receive, at a total purchase price not to
exceed that payable upon the exercise of the unexercised portion of this
Warrant, and in lieu of the shares of Common Stock theretofore issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of stock, other
securities, money and property receivable upon such reclassification, change or
merger by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock (or similar security)
then purchasable under this Warrant. Such new Warrant shall provide for
adjustments that shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the
adjustments provided for in this Section 4. The provisions of this Section 4(a)
shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, changes, mergers and
transfers.

<PAGE>

          b. Subdivision or Combination of Shares. If at any time while this
Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired the Company shall subdivide or combine
its outstanding shares of common stock, the Warrant Price shall be
proportionately decreased and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder
shall be proportionately increased in the case of a subdivision and the Warrant
Price shall be proportionately increased in the case of a combination and the
number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder shall be proportionately decreased,
effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination
becomes effective.

          c. Stock Dividends. If at any time while this Warrant is outstanding
and unexpired the Company shall (i) pay a dividend with respect to Common Stock
payable in Common Stock, then the Warrant Price shall be adjusted, from and
after the date of determination of stockholders entitled to receive such
dividend or distribution, to that price determined by multiplying the Warrant
Price in effect immediately prior to such date of determination by a fraction
(A) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding immediately prior to such dividend, and (B) the denominator of which
shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately
after such dividend or (ii) make any other dividend or distribution with respect
to Common Stock (except any distribution specifically provided for in Sections
4.a. and 4.b.), then, the Company will provide notice to the Investor of such
dividend or distribution with respect to the Common Stock and, if the Warrant is
exercised in whole or in part within five days of actual receipt by the Investor
of the notice of such dividend or distribution, the Holder of the shares of
Common Stock acquired pursuant to such exercise shall be entitled to receive the
dividend or distribution with respect to the Warrant Shares acquired by the
Investor upon such exercise of the Warrant.

     5. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrant Price or the number of
Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 4
hereof, the Company shall deliver to the Holder of this Warrant a certificate
signed by a duly designated officer of the Company setting forth, in reasonable
detail, the event requiring the adjustment, the amount of the adjustment, the
method by which such adjustment was calculated, and the Warrant Price and the
number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder after giving effect to such
adjustment.

<PAGE>

     6. Dividends. In the event that the Company shall fix a record date for the
making of any stock dividend to Holders of shares of its common stock, the
Company shall notify the Holder of the Warrants, in writing, at least 30 days in
advance of the record date for the proposed dividend or distribution.

     7. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued
in connection with any exercise hereunder, but in lieu of such fractional shares
the Company shall round up the shares to which the recipient is entitled to the
nearest whole share.

     8. Disposition of Warrant or Warrant Shares.

          a. Exchange. This Warrant may be exchanged, without payment of any
service charge, for one (1) or more new Warrants of like tenor exercisable for
the same aggregate number of shares of Common Stock upon surrender to the
Company by the registered Holder hereof in person or by legal representative or
by attorney duly authorized in writing and, upon issuance of the new Warrant or
Warrants, the surrendered Warrant shall be cancelled and disposed of by the
Company.

          b. Applicability of Restrictions. Neither any restrictions of any
legend applicable to the Warrant or the Warrant Shares nor any restrictions on
transfer set forth herein or in the Subscription Agreement between Holder and
the Company dated as of the date of this Warrant shall apply to any transfer of,
or grant of a security interest in, this Warrant (or the Common Stock obtainable
upon exercise thereof) or any part hereof (i) to a partner of the Holder if the
Holder is a partnership or to a member of the Holder if the Holder is a limited
liability company, (ii) to a partnership of which the Holder is a partner or to
a limited liability company of which the Holder is a member, or (iii) to any
affiliate of the Holder if the Holder is a corporation; provided, however, in
any such transfer, if applicable, the transferee shall agree in writing to be
bound by the terms of this Warrant as if an original Holder hereof.

     9. Rights as Stockholders; Information. Except as otherwise set forth in
this Agreement, no Holder of this Warrant, as such, shall be entitled to vote or
be deemed the Holder of Common Stock or any other securities of the Company
which may at any time be issuable on the exercise hereof for any purpose, nor
shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon the Holder of this
Warrant, as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right
to vote for the election of the directors or upon any matter submitted to
stockholders at any meeting thereof, or to receive notice of meetings, until
this Warrant shall have been exercised and the Warrant Shares purchasable upon
the exercise hereof shall have become deliverable, as provided herein. The
foregoing notwithstanding, the Company will transmit to the Holder of this
Warrant such information, documents and reports as are generally distributed to
the holders of any class or series of the securities of the Company concurrently
with the distribution thereof to the stockholders.

<PAGE>

     10. Additional Rights on Transfer of Business.

          a. Transfer of Business. In the event that the Company undertakes to
(i) sell, lease, exchange, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially
all of its property or business, or (ii) merge into or consolidate with any
other corporation (other than a wholly-owned Subsidiary), or effect any
transaction (including a merger or other reorganization) or series of related
transactions, in which more than 50% of the voting power of the Company is
disposed of, the Company will provide at least 30 days notice prior to closing
of the terms and conditions of the proposed transaction. The Company shall
cooperate with the Holder in consummating the sale of this Warrant in connection
with any such transaction.

     11. Modification and Waiver. This Warrant and any provision hereof may be
changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing
signed by the party against which enforcement of the same is sought.

     12. Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all
communications under this Warrant shall be in writing and shall be deemed to
have been duly given (i) on the date of service if served personally on the
party to whom notice is to be given, (ii) on the day of transmission if sent by
facsimile transmission to the number shown on the books of the Company, and
telephonic confirmation of receipt is obtained promptly after completion of
transmission, (iii) on the day after delivery to Federal Express or similar
overnight courier, or (iv) on the fifth day after mailing, if mailed to the
party to whom notice is to be given, by first class mail, registered or

each such Holder at its address as shown on the books of the Company or to the
Company at the address indicated therefor on the signature page of this Warrant.
Any party hereto may change its address for purposes of this Section 12 by
giving the other party written notice of the new address in the manner set forth
herein.

     13. Assignment; Binding Effect on Successors. This Warrant may be assigned,
transferred, or pledged by Holder only in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant. This Warrant shall be binding upon any corporation succeeding the
Company by merger, consolidation or acquisition of all or substantially all of
the Company's assets, and all of the covenants and agreements of the Company
shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Holder hereof.

<PAGE>

     14. Lost Warrants or Stock Certificates. The Company covenants to the
Holder hereof that, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the
Company of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any
stock certificate and, in the case of any loss, theft or destruction, upon
receipt of an executed lost securities bond or indemnity reasonably satisfactory
to the Company, or in the case of any such mutilation upon surrender and
cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, the Company will make and
deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate, of like tenor, in lieu of the lost,
stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant or stock certificate.

     15. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings of the several
paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for convenience only and do not
constitute a part of this Warrant.

     16. Governing Law. This Warrant shall be construed and enforced in
accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by, the laws of
the State of Delaware (without giving effect to principles of conflicts of
laws).

     17. Survival of Representations, Warranties and Agreements. All
representations and warranties of the Company and the Holder hereof contained

Warrant (or any part hereof) and the termination or expiration of rights
hereunder and shall terminate three years after the date of this Agreement. All
agreements of the Company and the Holder hereof contained herein shall survive
indefinitely until, by their respective terms, they are no longer operative.

     18. Remedies. In case any one or more of the covenants and agreements
contained in this Warrant shall have been breached, the Holders hereof (in the
case of a breach by the Company), or the Company (in the case of a breach by a
Holder), may proceed to protect and enforce their or its rights either by suit
in equity and/or by action at law, including, but not limited to, an action for
damages as a result of any such breach and/or an action for specific performance
of any such covenant or agreement contained in this Warrant.

     19. Acceptance. Receipt of this Warrant by the Holder hereof shall

     21. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of

                                                       (Name)

                                   ----------

                       INVESTMENT REPRESENTATION STATEMENT

Purchaser:
Company:      DIGITAL FUSION, INC.
Security:     Common Stock

Amount:
Date:

     In connection with the purchase of the above-listed securities (the
"Securities"), the undersigned (the "Purchaser") represents to the Company as
follows:

     (a) The Purchaser is aware of the Company's business affairs and financial
condition, and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an
informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Securities. The Purchaser is
purchasing the Securities for its own account for investment purposes only and
not with a view to, or for the resale in connection with, any "distribution"
thereof for purposes of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act").

     (b) The Purchaser understands that the Securities have not been registered
under the Securities Act in reliance upon a specific exemption therefrom, which
exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the
Purchaser's investment intent as expressed herein. In this connection, the
Purchaser understands that, in the view of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC"), the statutory basis for such exemption may be unavailable if
the Purchaser's representation was predicated solely upon a present intention to
hold these Securities for the minimum capital gains period specified under
applicable tax laws, for a deferred sale, for or until an increase or decrease
in the market price of the Securities, or for a period of one year or any other
fixed period in the future.

     (c) The Purchaser further understands that the Securities must be held
indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or unless
an exemption from registration is otherwise available. In addition, the
Purchaser understands that the certificate evidencing the Securities will be
imprinted with the legend referred to in the Warrant under which the Securities
are being purchased.

     (d) The Purchaser is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 and 144A,
promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public
resale of "restricted securities" acquired, directly or indirectly, from the
issuer thereof (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering
subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, if applicable, including,
among other things: The availability of certain public information about the
Company, the resale occurring not less than one (1) year after the party has
purchased and paid for the securities to be sold; the sale being made through a
broker in an unsolicited "broker's transaction" or in transactions directly with
a market maker (as said term is defined under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended) and the amount of securities being sold during any three-month
period not exceeding the specified limitations stated therein.

<PAGE>

     (e) The Purchaser further understands that at the time it wishes to sell
the Securities there may be no public market upon which to make such a sale, and
that, even if such a public market then exists, the Company may not be
satisfying the current public information requirements of Rule 144 and 144A, and
that, in such event, the Purchaser may be precluded from selling the Securities
under Rule 144 and 144A even if the one-year minimum holding period had been
satisfied.

     (f) The Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the
requirements of Rule 144 and 144A are not satisfied, registration under the
Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration
exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is
not exclusive, the Staff of the SEC has expressed its opinion that persons
proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered
offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden
of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for
such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who
participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

                                  Purchaser:
                                            --------------------------------
