                                  MCY.COM, INC.

                            VOID AFTER APRIL 1, 2001

         This Warrant  (the  "Warrant")  is issued to Susan  Blond,  Inc. or its
registered  assigns  ("Holder") by MCY.com,  Inc., a Delaware  corporation  (the
"Company"),  on April 1, 2000 (the "Warrant  Issue Date") for  consideration  of
$150 in the aggregate, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged.

         1.  Purchase  Shares.  Subject to the terms and  conditions  herein set
forth,  the Holder is entitled,  upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal
corporate  office of the Company  (or at such other  place as the Company  shall
notify the Holder  hereof in writing),  to purchase from the Company up to 1,600
shares of common stock (the  "Warrant  Shares") of the Company,  $.001 par value
(the  "Common  Stock")  at  the  Exercise  Price  (defined  below),  subject  to
adjustment as provided in Section 8.

         2. Exercise  Price.  The purchase  price for the Shares shall be $12.63
per Warrant  Share,  as adjusted  from time to time pursuant to Section 8 hereof
(the "Exercise Price").

         3. Exercise Period.  This Warrant shall be exercisable,  in whole or in
part,  during the period commencing on the Warrant Issue Date and ending at 5:00
p.m. on April 1, 2001 (the "Exercise Period").

         4. Method of  Exercise.  While this  Warrant  remains  outstanding  and
exercisable  in accordance  with Section 3 above,  the Holder may  exercise,  in
whole or in part,  the rights to purchase the Warrant Shares  evidenced  hereby.
Such exercise shall be effected by:

                  (a)  the  surrender  of  the  Warrant,  together  with  a duly
         executed copy of the form of Notice of Exercise attached hereto, to the
         Secretary of the Company at its principal corporate offices; and

                  (b) the  payment  to the  Company  of an  amount  equal to the
         aggregate  Exercise  Price  for the  number  of  Warrant  Shares  being
         purchased.
<PAGE>

         5. Net Exercise. In lieu of exercising this Warrant pursuant to Section
4, the Holder may elect to  receive,  without  the  payment by the Holder of any
additional consideration,  Warrant Shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or
the  portion  thereof  being  canceled)  by  surrender  of this  Warrant  at the
principal  office of the Company  together with the Notice of Exercise  attached
hereto  indicating such election,  in which event the Company shall issue to the
holder hereof a number of Warrant Shares computed using the following formula:

                             Y (A - B)
                             ---------
                     X =            A

  Where: X =   The number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant
               to this net exercise;

         Y =   The number of Warrant Shares in  respect  of which the net issue
               election is made;

         A =   The fair market value of one Warrant Share at the time the net
               issue election is made;

         B =   The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of the net issuance).

For purposes of this Section 5, the fair market value of one Warrant Share as of
a particular date shall be determined as follows:  (i) if traded on a securities
exchange or through the Nasdaq National Market,  the value shall be deemed to be
the average of the closing  prices of the  securities  on such exchange over the
thirty (30) day period ending three (3) days prior to the net exercise election;
(ii) if traded over-the-counter,  the value shall be deemed to be the average of
the closing bid and offer prices  (whichever is applicable) over the thirty (30)
day period ending three (3) days prior to the net  exercise;  and (iii) if there
is no active public market, the value shall be the fair market value thereof, as
determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company.

         6.  Certificates  for Shares.  Upon the exercise of the purchase rights
evidenced by this Warrant,  one or more  certificates  for the number of Warrant
Shares so  purchased  shall be issued as soon as  practicable  thereafter  (with
appropriate restrictive legends, if applicable),  and in any event within thirty
(30) days of the delivery of the subscription notice and the Holder's compliance
with Section 4 or 5 (as applicable) hereof.

         7. Issuance of Shares.  The Company  covenants that the Warrant Shares,
when issued  pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant,  will be duly and validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens, and charges
with respect to the issuance thereof.
<PAGE>

         8.  Adjustment  of  Exercise  Price and Kind and Number of Shares.  The
number and kind of securities  purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the
Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

                  (a)  Subdivisions,  Combinations and Other  Issuances.  If the
         Company  shall at any time during the  Exercise  Period of this Warrant
         (i) subdivide its Common  Stock,  by split-up or otherwise,  or combine
         its Common Stock, or (ii) issue  additional  shares of its Common Stock
         or other equity  securities as a dividend with respect to any shares of
         its Common Stock,  the number of shares of Common Stock issuable on the
         exercise of this Warrant shall forthwith be  proportionately  increased
         in the case of a  subdivision  or stock  dividend,  or  proportionately
         decreased in the case of a combination.  Appropriate  adjustments shall
         also be made to the Exercise Price payable per Warrant  Share,  but the
         aggregate Exercise Price payable for the total number of Warrant Shares
         purchasable under this Warrant (as adjusted) shall remain the same. Any
         adjustment  under this Section 8(a) shall become effective at the close
         of  business  on  the  date  the  subdivision  or  combination  becomes
         effective,  or as of the record date of such dividend,  or in the event
         that no record date is fixed, upon the making of such dividend.

                  (b)  Reclassification,  Reorganization and  Consolidation.  In
         case of any reclassification,  capital reorganization, or change in the
         Common Stock of the Company  (other than as a result of a  subdivision,
         combination,  or stock  dividend  provided  for in Section 8(a) above),
         then,  as a  condition  of such  reclassification,  reorganization,  or
         change,  lawful  provision  shall be made, and duly executed  documents
         evidencing  the  same  from  the  Company  or its  successor  shall  be
         delivered to the Holder, so that the Holder shall have the right at any
         time prior to the  expiration  of this Warrant to purchase,  at a total
         price equal to that payable upon the exercise of this Warrant  (subject
         to adjustment of the Exercise  Price as provided in Section 8, the kind
         and  amount  of  shares of stock  and  other  securities  and  property
         receivable in connection with such reclassification, reorganization, or
         change by a holder of the same number of shares of Common Stock as were
         purchasable by the Holder  immediately prior to such  reclassification,
         reorganization,  or  change.  In any such case  appropriate  provisions
         shall be made with  respect to the rights and interest of the Holder so
         that the provisions  hereof shall thereafter be applicable with respect
         to any shares of stock or other  securities  and  property  deliverable
         upon exercise hereof, and appropriate  adjustments shall be made to the
         purchase  price per share  payable  hereunder,  provided the  aggregate
         purchase price shall remain the same.

                  (c) Notice of  Adjustment.  When any adjustment is required to
         be made in the number or kind of shares  purchasable  upon  exercise of
         the  Warrant,  or in the Exercise  Price,  the Company  shall  promptly
         notify  the  Holder of such event and of the number of shares of Common
         Stock or other  securities  or  property  thereafter  purchasable  upon
         exercise of this Warrant.
<PAGE>

                  (d) Issuance of New Warrant. Upon the occurrence of any of the
         events  listed in this Section 8 that results in an  adjustment  of the
         type,  number  or  exercise  price of the  securities  underlying  this
         Warrant,  the  Holder  shall  have the right to  receive a new  warrant
         reflecting such  adjustment  upon the Holder  tendering this Warrant in
         exchange.  The new warrant shall otherwise have terms identical to this
         Warrant.

         9.       Covenants and Conditions.

         shares of Company's  Common Stock to facilitate  the issuance of shares
         to Holder  pursuant to this  Warrant,  (ii) not amend its articles in a

payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.
