Warrant No. LT-__ Number of Shares: _____ (subject to adjustment) Date of Issuance: __________ Razorfish, Inc. Common Stock Purchase Warrant (Void after January 11, 2005) Razorfish, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), for value received, hereby certifies that Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., or its registered assigns (the "Registered Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, to purchase from the Company, at any time or from time to time commencing one year after the date of issuance and on or before 5:00 p.m. (Eastern time) on January 11, 2005, forty six thousand one hundred fifty three (_____) shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.001 per share of the Company ("Common Stock"), at a purchase price of $0.___ per share. The shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, and the purchase price per share, each as adjusted from time to time pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant, are hereinafter referred to as the "Warrant Shares" and the "Purchase Price," respectively. 1. Exercise. (a) This Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder, in whole or in part, by surrendering this Warrant, with the purchase form appended hereto as Exhibit I duly executed by the Registered Holder or by the Registered Holder's duly authorized attorney, at the principal office of the Company, or at such other office or agency as the Company may designate, accompanied by payment in full, in lawful money of the United States, of the Purchase Price payable in respect of the number of Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise. (b) The Registered Holder may, at its option, elect to pay some or all of the Purchase Price payable upon an exercise of this Warrant by canceling all or a portion of this Warrant. If the Registered Holder wishes to exercise this Warrant by this method, the number of Warrant Shares purchasable (which shall in no event exceed the total number of Warrant Shares purchasable under this Warrant as set forth above), subject to adjustment under Section 2 of this Warrant) shall be determined as follows: X=Y[(A-B)/A]; where X= the number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder. Y= the number of Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant is being exercised. A= the Fair Market Value of one share of Common Stock. B= the Purchase Price of one share of Common Stock. The Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be determined as follows: (i) If the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or another nationally recognized trading system (including, without limitation, the OTC Bulletin Board and, if the average daily trading volume for the preceding 10 trading days has been at least 100,000 shares, the Pink Sheets) as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the average of the high and low reported sale prices per share of Common Stock thereon on the trading day immediately preceding the Exercise Date (provided that if no such price is reported on such day, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be determined pursuant to clause (ii)). (ii) If the Common Stock is not listed on a national securities exchange, the Nasdaq National Market or another nationally recognized trading system as of the Exercise Date, the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock shall be deemed to be the amount most recently determined by the Board of Directors of the Company to represent the fair market value per share of the Common Stock (including without limitation a determination for purposes of granting Common Stock options or issuing Common Stock under an employee benefit plan of the Company); and, upon request of the Registered Holder, the Board of Directors (or a representative thereof) shall promptly notify the Registered Holder of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Board of Directors has not made such a determination within the three-month period prior to the Exercise Date, then (A) the Board of Directors shall make a determination of the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock within 15 days of a request by the Registered 2 Holder that it do so, and (B) the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to this subsection 1(b) shall be delayed until such determination is made. (c) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in subsection 1(a) above accompanied by payment in full of the Purchase Price (the "Exercise Date"). At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in subsection 1(d) below shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates. (d) As soon as practicable after the exercise of this Warrant in full or in part, and in any event within 5 business days thereafter, the Company, at its expense, will cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Registered Holder, or as such Holder (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct: (i) a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares to which the Registered Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise plus, in lieu of any fractional share to which the Registered Holder would otherwise be entitled, cash in an amount determined pursuant to Section 3 hereof; and (ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new warrant or warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, calling in the aggregate on the face or faces thereof for the number of remaining Warrant Shares. 2. Adjustments. (a) Adjustment for Stock Splits and Combinations. If the Company shall at -------------------------------------------- any time or from time to time after the date on which this Warrant was first issued (the "Original Issue Date") effect a subdivision of the outstanding Common Stock, the Purchase Price then in effect immediately before that subdivision shall be proportionately decreased. If the Company shall at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Purchase Price then in effect immediately before the combination shall be proportionately increased. Any adjustment under this paragraph shall become effective at the close of business on the date the subdivision or combination becomes effective. (b) Adjustment for Certain Dividends and Distributions. In the event the -------------------------------------------------- Company at any time, or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in additional shares of Common Stock, then and in each such event the Purchase Price then in effect immediately before such event shall be decreased as of the time of such issuance or, in the event such a record date shall have been fixed, as of the 3 close of business on such record date, by multiplying the Purchase Price then in effect by a fraction: (1) the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date, and (2) the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the time of such issuance or the close of business on such record date plus the number of shares of Common Stock issuable in payment of such dividend or distribution; provided, however, if such record date shall have been fixed and such dividend is not fully paid or if such distribution is not fully made on the date fixed therefor, the Purchase Price shall be recomputed accordingly as of the close of business on such record date and thereafter the Purchase Price shall be adjusted pursuant to this paragraph as of the time of actual payment of such dividends or distributions. (c) Adjustment in Number of Warrant Shares. When any adjustment is required to be made in the Purchase Price pursuant to subsections 2(a) or 2(b), the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by the Purchase Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Purchase Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. (d) Adjustments for Other Dividends and Distributions. In the event the Company at any time or from time to time after the Original Issue Date shall make or issue, or fix a record date for the determination of holders of Common Stock entitled to receive, a dividend or other distribution payable in securities of the Company (other than shares of Common Stock) or in cash or other property (other than cash out of earnings or earned surplus, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), then and in each such event provision shall be made so that the Registered Holder shall receive upon exercise hereof, in addition to the number of shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder, the kind and amount of securities of the Company and/or cash and other property which the Registered Holder would have been entitled to receive had this Warrant been exercised into Common Stock on the date of such event and had the Registered Holder thereafter, during the period from the date of such event to and including the Exercise Date, retained any such securities receivable, giving application to all adjustments called for during such period under this Section 2 with respect to the rights of the Registered Holder. (e) Adjustment for Mergers or Reorganizations, etc. If there shall occur any reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation or merger involving the Company in which the Common Stock is converted into or exchanged for securities, cash or other property (other than a transaction covered by 4 subsections 2(a), 2(b) or 2(d)), then, following any such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation or merger, the Registered Holder shall receive upon exercise hereof the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property which the Registered Holder would have been entitled to receive if, immediately prior to such reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation or merger, the Registered Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock subject to this Warrant. (e) Certificate as to Adjustments. Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Purchase Price pursuant to this Section 2, the Company at its expense shall promptly compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Registered Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property for which this Warrant shall be exercisable and the Purchase Price) and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, upon the written request at any time of the Registered Holder, furnish or cause to be furnished to the Registered Holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Purchase Price then in effect and (ii) the number of shares of Common Stock and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the exercise of this Warrant. 3. Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required upon the exercise of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but shall make an adjustment therefor in cash on the basis of the Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock, as determined pursuant to subsection 1(b) above. 4. Requirements for Transfer. (a) This Warrant and the Warrant Shares shall not be sold or transferred unless either (i) they first shall have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or (ii) the Company first shall have been furnished with an opinion of legal counsel, reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such sale or transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Act. (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no registration or opinion of counsel shall be required for (i) a transfer by a Registered Holder which is a corporation to a wholly owned subsidiary of such corporation, or a transfer by a Registered Holder which is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (the "NASD") to an officer or employee (but not a director) of the Registered Holder as permitted by NASD rules, provided that the transferee agrees in writing to be subject to the terms of this Section 4, or (ii) a transfer made in accordance with Rule 144 under the Act. (c) Each certificate representing Warrant Shares shall bear a legend substantially in the following form: 5 "The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred, pledged or hypothecated unless and until such securities are registered under such Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company is obtained to the effect that such registration is not required." The foregoing legend shall be removed from the certificates representing any Warrant Shares, at the request of the holder thereof, at such time as they become eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the Act or if sold pursuant to an effective registration statement which is then effective permitting the resale of the Warrant Shares. (d) The Company will, at the Registered Holder's request, use reasonable efforts to allow the Registered Holder to sell some or all of the Warrant Shares (but not the Warrants) in a registered public offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("Securities Act"), pursuant to which the Company or other holders of common stock of the Company register shares for sale. The Registered Holder's rights hereunder shall be subject to such reasonable terms, conditions and restrictions as are established by the Board of Directors of the Company, which determination shall be final and binding, except that (i) such registration rights shall only apply to registration statements filed on Forms S-1, S-2 or S-3; (ii) after notice has been given to the Registered Holder at least twenty (20) days prior to the filing of such registration statement, the Registered Holder shall make a written request within ten (10) days following receipt of such notice of the number of Warrant Shares it wishes to be included in the registration; (iii) the Registered Holder shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of its counsel and for all underwriting discounts, commissions and filing fees attributable to the Warrant Shares included in the registration statement; (iv) if the offering being registered by the Company is underwritten and if the representative of the underwriters certifies in writing that inclusion therein of the Warrant Shares would materially and adversely affect the sale of the securities to be sold by the Company thereunder, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering only that number of Warrant Shares which the underwriters determine in their sole discretion will not jeopardize the success of the offering (and the securities so included will be apportioned pro rata among all selling shareholders according to the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling shareholder); and (v) the Company will use its best efforts to register and qualify under such other securities laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the selling Registered Holder in order to enable the Registered Holder to consummate the disposition of the Warrant Shares being sold in such jurisdictions (provided, however, that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to transact business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such jurisdiction). The Company's obligations hereunder are expressly conditioned upon such Registered Holder furnishing to the Company in writing such information concerning such Registered Holder and the terms of such Registered Holder's proposed sale of Warrant Shares as the Company shall reasonably request for inclusion in the registration statement. If any registration statement including any of the Warrant Shares is filed, then the Company shall indemnify 6 each Registered Holder thereof (and each underwriter for such Registered Holder and each person, if any, who controls such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act) from any loss, claim, damage or liability arising out of, based upon or in any way relating to any untrue statement of a material fact contained in such registration statement or any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except for any such statement or omission based on information furnished in writing by such Registered Holder of the Warrant Shares expressly for use in connection with such registration statement; and such Registered Holder shall indemnify the Company (and each of its officers and directors who has signed such registration statement, each director, each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, each underwriter for the Company and each person, if any, who controls such underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act) and each other such Registered Holder or selling shareholder against any loss, claim, damage or liability arising from any such statement or omission which was made in reliance upon information furnished in writing to the Company by such Registered Holder of the Warrant Shares expressly for use in connection with such registration statement. 5. No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its charter or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the holder of this Warrant against impairment. 6.

Such notice shall be mailed at least ten days prior to the record date or effective date for the event specified in such notice. 7. Reservation of Stock.
