                          COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

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

               This certifies that, for good and valuable consideration,
Tickets.com, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), grants to
_________________________, a _________________ (the "Warrantholder"), the right
to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, during the Exercise Period (as
hereinafter defined), ____________ (______) validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable shares, par value $0.000225, of Common Stock of the Company (the
"Warrant Shares"), at the exercise price per share equal to $2.36 (the "Exercise
Price"), all subject to the terms, conditions and adjustments herein set forth.
Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in
Section 9 below.

               1. Warrant. This Warrant is issued pursuant to, and in accordance
with, Section 2.3 of the Purchase Agreement and is subject to the terms thereof.

               2. Exercise of Warrant; Payment of Taxes.

                      2.1 Exercise of Warrant. Subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein, this Warrant may be exercised at any time, in whole
or in part, by the Warrantholder during the Exercise Period by:

                             (a) the surrender of this Warrant to the Company,
with a duly executed Exercise Form, and

                             (b) subject to Section 2.2 below, the delivery of
payment to the Company, for the account of the Company, by cash, wire transfer,
certified or official bank check or any other means approved by the Company, of
the aggregate Exercise Price in lawful money of the United States of America.

The Company agrees that the Warrant Shares shall be deemed to be issued to the
Warrantholder as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of
business on

<PAGE>

                                                                               2

the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment made for
the Warrant Shares as aforesaid.

                      2.2 Conversion Right.

                          (a) In lieu of the payment of the aggregate
Exercise Price, the Warrantholder shall have the right (but not the obligation),
to require the Company to convert this Warrant, in whole or in part, into shares
of Common Stock (the "Conversion Right") as provided for in this Section 2.2.
Upon exercise of the Conversion Right, the Company shall deliver to the
Warrantholder (without payment by the Warrantholder of any of the Exercise
Price) in accordance with Section 2.1(b) that number of shares of Common Stock
equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the value of the Warrant or
portion thereof at the time the Conversion Right is exercised (determined by
subtracting the aggregate Exercise Price at the time of the exercise of the
Conversion Right from the aggregate Current Market Price for the shares of
Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant at the time of the exercise
of the Conversion Right) by (ii) the Current Market Price of one share of Common
Stock at the time of the exercise of the Conversion Right.

                          (b) The Conversion Right may be exercised by the
Warrantholder on any Business Day prior to the end of the Exercise Period by
surrender of this Warrant to the Company, with a duly executed Exercise Form
with the conversion section completed, exercising the Conversion Right and
specifying the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Warrantholder
will be issued pursuant to such conversion.

                      2.3 Warrant Shares Certificate. A stock certificate or
certificates for the Warrant Shares specified in the Exercise Form shall be
delivered to the Warrantholder within five (5) Business Days after receipt of
the Exercise Form by the Company and, if the Conversion Right is not exercised,
the payment by the Warrantholder of the aggregate Exercise Price. If this
Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the Company shall, at the time
of delivery of the stock certificate or certificates, deliver to the
Warrantholder a new Warrant evidencing the right to purchase the remaining
Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with
this Warrant.

                      2.4 Payment of Taxes. The Company will pay all documentary
stamp or other issuance taxes, if any, attributable to the issuance of Warrant
Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant; provided, however, that the Company
shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of
any transfer involved in the issue or delivery of any Warrants or Warrant
certificates or Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the then
Warrantholder as reflected upon the books of the Company.

                                                                               3

               3. Restrictions on Transfer; Restrictive Legends.

                      3.1 At no time may this Warrant or the Warrant Shares be
offered, sold, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of, in whole or in
part, to any Person except in accordance with applicable federal and state
securities laws.

                      3.2 Except as otherwise permitted by this Section 3, (a)
each Warrant (and each Warrant issued in substitution for any Warrant pursuant
to Section 6) shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in
substantially the form as set forth on the cover of this Warrant and (b) each
certificate for Warrant Shares issued upon the exercise of any Warrant and each
certificate issued upon the direct or indirect transfer of any such Warrant
Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially
the form provided in the Purchase Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Warrantholder may require the Company to issue a Warrant or a certificate for
Warrant Shares, in each case without a legend, if either (i) such Warrant or
such Warrant Shares, as the case may be, have been registered for resale under
the Securities Act, (ii) the Warrantholder has delivered to the Company an
opinion of legal counsel (from a firm reasonably satisfactory to the Company)
which opinion shall be addressed to the Company to the effect that such
registration is not required with respect to such Warrant or such Warrant
Shares, as the case may be or (iii) such Warrant or Warrant Shares may be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 (or any successor provision then in effect) under the
Securities Act.

               4. Reservation and Registration of Shares. The Company covenants
and agrees as follows:

                          (a) All Warrant Shares that are issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant shall, upon issuance, be validly issued, not subject to
any preemptive rights, and be free from all taxes, liens, security interests,
charges, and other encumbrances with respect to the issuance thereof, other than
taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue.

                          (b) The Company shall at all times have authorized
and reserved, and shall keep available and free from preemptive rights, a
sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant.

                          (c) The Company shall not, by amendment of its
Certificate of Incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets,
spin-off, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any
other action or inaction, seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of
the terms of this Warrant, and shall at all times in good faith assist in
performing and giving effect to the terms hereof.

               5. Anti-dilution Adjustments. The Exercise Price and the number
of Warrant Shares to be received upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject
to adjustment as follows:

<PAGE>

                                                                               4

                      5.1 Dividend, Subdivision, Combination or Reclassification
of Common Stock. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time, after
the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the exercise hereof, (w) make a
dividend or distribution on the outstanding shares of Common Stock payable in
Capital Stock, (x) subdivide the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a
larger number of shares, (y) combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock into
a smaller number of shares, through a reverse stock split or otherwise, or (z)
issue any shares of its Capital Stock in a reclassification of the Common Stock
(other than any such event for which an adjustment is made pursuant to another
clause of this Section 5), then, and in each such case, (A) the aggregate number
of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable (the "Warrant Share
Number") immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted (and any other
appropriate actions shall be taken by the Company) so that the Warrantholder
shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant the number of shares
of Common Stock or other securities of the Company that it would have owned or
would have been entitled to receive upon or by reason of any of the events
described above, had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to the
occurrence of such event and (B) the Exercise Price payable upon the exercise of
this Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately
prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the
number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately
prior to such adjustment, and the denominator of which shall be the number of
Warrant Shares issuable immediately thereafter. An adjustment made pursuant to
this Section 5.1 shall become effective retroactively (x) in the case of any
such dividend or distribution, to a date immediately following the close of
business on the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Common
Stock entitled to receive such dividend or distribution or (y) in the case of
any such subdivision, combination or reclassification, to the close of business
on the day upon which such corporate action becomes effective.

                      5.2 Issuance of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents
Below Exercise Price.

                          (a) If the Company shall at any time or from time
to time, after the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the exercise hereof,
issue or sell (such issuance or sale, a "New Issuance") any shares of Common
Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at a price per share of Common Stock (the "New
Issue Price") that is less than the Exercise Price then in effect as of the
record date or Issue Date (as defined below), as the case may be (the "Relevant
Date") (treating the price per share of Common Stock, in the case of the
issuance of any Common Stock Equivalent, as equal to (x) the sum of the price
for such Common Stock Equivalent plus any additional consideration payable
(without regard to any anti-dilution adjustments) upon the conversion, exchange
or exercise of such Common Stock Equivalent divided by (y) the number of shares
of Common Stock initially underlying such Common Stock Equivalent), other than
(i) issuances or sales for which an adjustment is made pursuant to another
subsection of this Section 5 and (ii) issuances in connection with an Excluded
Transaction, then, and in each such case, (A) the Exercise Price then in effect
shall be adjusted to equal the New Issue Price, and (B) the Warrant Share Number
shall be increased to equal the product of (i) the aggregate number of Warrant
Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable

<PAGE>

                                                                               5

immediately prior to the New Issuance multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the Exercise Price in effect on the day immediately
prior to the Relevant Date and the denominator of which shall be the Exercise
Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. Such adjustment shall be made
whenever such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents are issued, and
shall become effective retroactively (x) in the case of an issuance to the
stockholders of the Company, as such, to a date immediately following the close
of business on the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to
receive such shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents and (y) in all
other cases, on the date (the "Issue Date") of such issuance; provided, however,
that the determination as to whether an adjustment is required to be made
pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be made only upon the issuance of such shares
of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, and not upon the issuance of any
security into which the Common Stock Equivalents convert, exchange or may be
exercised.

                          (b) In case at any time any shares of Common Stock
or Common Stock Equivalents or any rights or options to purchase any shares of
Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents shall be issued or sold for cash, the
consideration received therefor shall be deemed to be the amount received by the
Company therefor, without deduction therefrom of any expenses incurred or any
underwriting commissions or concessions or discounts paid or allowed by the
Company in connection therewith, as determined in good faith by the Board of
Directors.

                          (c) If any Common Stock Equivalents (or any
portions thereof) which shall have given rise to an adjustment pursuant to this
Section 5.2 shall have expired or terminated without the exercise thereof and/or
if by reason of the terms of such Common Stock Equivalents there shall have been
an increase or increases, with the passage of time or otherwise, in the price
payable upon the exercise or conversion thereof, then the Exercise Price
hereunder shall be readjusted (but to no greater extent than originally
adjusted) in order to (i) eliminate from the computation any additional shares
of Common Stock corresponding to such Common Stock Equivalents as shall have
expired or terminated, (ii) treat the additional shares of Common Stock, if any,
actually issued or issuable pursuant to the previous exercise of such Common
Stock Equivalents as having been issued for the consideration actually received
and receivable therefor and (iii) treat any of such Common Stock Equivalents
which remain outstanding as being subject to exercise or conversion on the basis
of such exercise or conversion price as shall be in effect at the time.

                      5.3 Certain Distributions. If the Company shall, at any
time or from time to time after the issuance of this Warrant but prior to the
exercise hereof, distribute to all holders of shares of Common Stock (including
any such distribution made in connection with a merger or consolidation in which
the Company is the resulting or surviving Person and shares of Common Stock are
not changed or exchanged) cash, evidences of indebtedness of the Company or
another issuer, securities of the Company or another issuer or other assets
(excluding dividends or distributions payable in shares of Common Stock for
which adjustment is made under Section 5.1 and any distribution in connection
with an Excluded Transaction) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or

<PAGE>

                                                                               6

purchase any of the foregoing, then, and in each such case, (A) the Exercise
Price then in effect shall be adjusted (and any other appropriate actions shall
be taken by the Company) by being multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect
prior to the date of distribution by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall
be such Current Market Price of Common Stock immediately prior to the date of
distribution less the then fair market value (as determined by the Board of
Directors in the exercise of their fiduciary duties) 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 Common Stock and (ii) the
denominator of which shall be the Current Market Price of the Common Stock
immediately prior to the date of distribution (but such fraction shall not be
greater than one) and (B) the Warrant Share Number shall be increased by being
multiplied by a fraction (i) the numerator of which shall be the Current Market
Price of one share of Common Stock immediately prior to the record date for the

not be adjusted below the par value of a share of Common Stock.

new warrant, in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and the Majority
Warrantholders, entitling the Warrantholder to purchase, at the exercise price
equal to the excess of the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such
spin-off over the adjusted Exercise Price pursuant to Section 5.3, the number of
shares of common stock or other proprietary interest in the Spin-off Entity that
the Warrantholder would have owned had the Warrantholder, immediately prior to
such spin-off, exercised this Warrant.

                          (b) In case of any capital reorganization,

relating to such Transaction. Such certificate shall provide for adjustments
which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments
