WARRANT AGREEMENT

WARRANT AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") dated as of , by and between Local Matters, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and (the "Agent").

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, the Agent has agreed pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement, dated , by and between the Agent and the Company, as amended (the "Placement Agency Agreement") to act as the placement agent in connection with the Company's proposed private placement (the "Offering") of up to 150 Units, each Unit consists of 100,000 shares of the Company's Series 2 Preferred Stock, $.001 per value per share (the "Series 2 Preferred Stock"); and

WHEREAS, the Company has agreed to issue to the Agent and/or its designees warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase that number of shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock (the"Warrant Shares"), calculated by dividing twenty percent (20%) (the "Agent Warrant Percentage") of the aggregate proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Units sold in the Offering by the price per share of Series 2 Preferred Stock issued in the Offering (as hereinafter defined);provided,however, the Placement Agent shall not be entitled to warrant compensation with respect to up to $2,000,000 Units purchased by the Company Investors (as defined in the Placement Agency Agreement); and

WHEREAS, the Warrants to be issued pursuant to this Agreement will be issued in connection with one or more Closings (as such term is defined in the Placement Agency Agreement) in consideration for, and as part of the Agent's compensation in connection with, the Agent acting as the placement agent pursuant to the Placement Agency Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises, the agreements herein set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Grant. Subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, the Holders (as defined in Section 3.1 below) are hereby granted the right to purchase Warrant Shares at the initial exercise price of $1.00 per share of Series 2 Preferred Stock (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8 hereof).

2. Warrant Certificates. The Warrant certificates (the "Warrant Certificates") delivered and to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be in the form set forth inExhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof, with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions, and other variations as required or permitted by this Agreement.

3. Exercise of Warrant.

3.1 Method of Exercise. The Warrants are initially exercisable at the initial exercise price per share set forth in Section 5 hereof payable by certified or official bank check in New York Clearing House funds, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 8 hereof. Upon surrender of a Warrant Certificate with the annexed Form of Election to Purchase duly executed, together with payment of the Exercise Price (as defined in Section 5.2 below) for the Warrant Shares at the Company's principal offices, currently at 1517 Blake Street, Suite 200, Denver, Colorado 80202, the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate ("Holder" or "Holders") shall be entitled to receive a certificate or certificates for the shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock so purchased. The purchase rights represented by each Warrant Certificate are exercisable at the option of the Holder(s) thereof, in whole or in part (but not as to fractional shares of the Series 2 Preferred Stock underlying the Warrants). Warrants may be exercised to purchase all or part of the shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock represented thereby. In the case of purchase of less than all the shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock purchasable under any Warrant Certificate, the Company shall cancel such Warrant Certificate upon the

surrender thereof and shall execute and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like tenor for the balance of the shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock.

3.2 Exercise by Surrender of Warrant. In addition to the method of payment set forth in Section 3.1 and in lieu of any cash payment required thereunder, the Holder(s) of the Warrants shall have the right at any time and from time to time, provided that the Series 2 Preferred Stock and/or the Company's common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the "Common Stock"), underlying the Series 2 Preferred Stock are/is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), to exercise the Warrants in full or in part by surrendering the Warrant Certificate in the manner specified in Section 3.1 in exchange for the number of shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock computed by using the following formula:

			X =	Y (A - B)
				A
Where	X	=	the number of shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock to be issued to the Holder(s) pursuant to the net exercise.
	Y	=	the number of shares Series 2 Preferred Stock subject to the Warrant being exercised or, if only a portion of such Warrant is being exercised, the portion of such Warrant being canceled (at the time of such calculation).
	A	=	the Fair Market Value of one share of Series 2 Preferred Stock (at the date of such calculation).
	B	=	the Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).

For purposes of this Section 3.2, the "Fair Market Value" of one share of Series 2 Preferred Stock shall be determined by the Company's Board of Directors in good faith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) if the conversion of all Series 2 Preferred Stock described in Section 8(c) below has occurred, then the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of Series 2 Preferred Stock shall be equal to (a) the number of shares of Common Stock into which one (1) share of Series 2 Preferred Stock was converted multiplied by (b)(i) the average closing price of the Company's Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market (or any other nationally recognized securities market or automated quotation system on which the Company's securities are quoted or exchanged), whichever is applicable, over the ten (10) trading days preceding the date of exercise or, (ii) if no sales take place on any such trading day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on such ten (10) trading-day period; (B) if the conversion of all Series 2 Preferred Stock as described in Section 8(c) below has not occurred, at the Holder's option, the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of Series 2 Preferred Stock shall be equal to (a) the number of shares of Common Stock into which one (1) share of Series 2 Preferred Stock may be converted on the date of Warrant exercise multiplied by (b)(i) the average of the closing sale price of the Common Stock as quoted on the Nasdaq National Market (or any other nationally recognized securities market or automated quotation system on which the Company's securities are quoted or exchanged), whichever is applicable, for the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding the date of exercise or, (ii) if no sales take place on any such trading day, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on such ten (10) trading-day period. If the Holder does not indicate its election in accordance with subsection (B) above, the Fair Market Value of one share of Series 2 Preferred Stock shall be determined by the Company's Board of Directors in good faith.

3.3. Exercise Period. Exercise Period. The Warrants shall be exercisable, in whole or in part, during the term commencing on the date of issuance thereof by the Company (the "Warrant Issue

Date") and ending on the earlier of (i) the fifth (5^th) anniversary of the last Warrant Issue Date to occur, and (ii) the third (3^rd) anniversary of the closing of an initial public offering of equity securities of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (or any similar or successor act).

4. Issuance of Certificates. In the event of any exercise of the rights represented by the Warrants, as promptly as practicable on or after the date of exercise and in any event within ten (10) business days thereafter, the Company at its expense shall issue and deliver to the Person or Persons (as hereinafter defined) entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates representing the number of Warrant Shares issued upon such exercise;provided,however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance and delivery of any such certificates in a name other than that of the Holder, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such certificates unless or until the person(s) requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid. In the event that the Warrants are exercised in part, as promptly as practicable on or after the date of exercise and in any event within ten (10) business days thereafter, the Company at its sole expense will execute and deliver new Warrants of like tenor exercisable for the number of Warrant Shares for which the Warrants may then be exercised. As used herein, the term "Person" or "Persons" means any individual or any corporation, partnership, trust, limited liability company or other entity or organization of any kind.

5. Exercise Price.

5.1 Initial and Adjusted Exercise Price. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8 hereof, the Warrants shall be exercisable to purchase the Shares at a price of $1.00 per share of Series 2 Preferred Stock. The adjusted exercise price shall be the price which shall result from time to time from any and all adjustments of the initial exercise price in accordance with the provisions of Section 8 hereof.

5.2 Exercise Price. The term "Exercise Price" herein shall mean the initial exercise price or the adjusted exercise price, depending upon the context.

6. Registration Rights. The Holders of the Warrants are entitled to the benefits of Section 2 of the Second Amended and Restated Investor Rights Agreement, dated the date hereof, by and among the Company and the investors in the Offering (the "Investor Rights Agreement"), as if such Holders were Holders (as defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) under the Investor Rights Agreement, and such Section 2 of the Investor Rights Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument and is hereby referred to for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations and duties thereunder of the Company and the Holders of the Warrants.

7. Transfer of Securities; Legends. Each Holder, by acceptance of a Warrant Certificate, covenants and agrees that it is acquiring the Warrants evidenced thereby and the Warrant Shares for its own account as an investment and not with a view to distribution thereof. The Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Act, or any state securities laws and no transfer of any Warrant Shares shall be permitted unless the Company has received notice of such transfer, at the address of its principal office set forth in Section 3.1 hereof, in the form of assignment attached hereto, accompanied by an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that an exemption from registration of such Warrant Shares under the Act is available for such transfer.

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT

APPLICABLE EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS IS AVAILABLE.

THE SHARES OF STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE OF THE WARRANTS REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN VOTING AGREEMENTS AS SET FORTH IN A FIRST AMENDED AND RESTATED INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT, AS MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, BY AND THE COMPANY AND CERTAIN OTHER STOCKHOLDERS OF THE COMPANY, A COPY OF WHICH IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION AT THE OFFICES OF THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY.

THE TRANSFER, EXCHANGE AND EXERCISE OF THE WARRANTS REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS RESTRICTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE WARRANT AGREEMENT REFERRED TO HEREIN.

7.1 Removal of Legend. Upon request of a Holder of a certificate with the legends required by Section 7 hereof, the Company shall issue to such Holder a new certificate therefor free of any transfer legend, if, with such request, the Company shall have received an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company in form and substance to the effect that any transfer by such Holder of the shares evidenced by such certificate will not violate the Act and any applicable state securities laws. Any purported transfer of any Warrants or Warrant Shares not in compliance with the provisions of this Section 7 shall be null and void.

8. Adjustment.

(a) Subdivision and Combination. If the Company shall at any time subdivide (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock subject to acquisition hereunder, then, after the date of record for effecting such subdivision, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock subject to acquisition upon exercise of the Warrants will be proportionately increased. If the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split, recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification or otherwise) the shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock subject to acquisition hereunder, then, after the date of record for effecting such combination, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock subject to acquisition upon exercise of the Warrants will be proportionately decreased.

(b) Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of any Exercise Price, then and in each such case the Company shall give notice thereof to the Holder, which notice shall state the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable at such price upon the exercise of the Warrants, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.

(c) Conversion of Preferred Stock. If, on the date that this Warrant is exercised, all shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock of the Company have been converted into the Company's Common Stock in connection with the Company's initial public offering of equity securities pursuant to a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, then in such case this Warrant shall be exercisable for that number of shares of the Company's Common Stock, in lieu of the Series 2 Preferred Stock, as would have been obtained had this Warrant been exercised immediately prior to such conversion.

9. Exchange and Replacement of Warrant Certificates. Each Warrant Certificate is exchangeable without expense, upon the surrender thereof by the registered Holder(s) at the principal office of the

Company, for a new Warrant Certificate of like form, tenor and date representing in the aggregate the right to purchase the same number of securities in such denominations as shall be designated by the Holder(s) thereof at the time of such surrender.

Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any Warrant Certificate, and, in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and reimbursement to the Company of all reasonable expenses incidental thereto, and upon surrender and cancellation of the Warrants, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant Certificate of like form and tenor in lieu thereof.

10. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but in lieu of such fractional shares the Company shall make a cash payment therefor on the basis of the Exercise Price then in effect.

11. Stock Fully Paid; Reservation of Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Series 2 Preferred Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock or other securities, properties or rights as shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof and such number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock are exercisable. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of the Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price therefore, all shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock and other securities issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid, non-assessable and not subject to the preemptive rights of any stockholder, except as set forth in the Memorandum (as defined in the Placement Agency Agreement).

12. Notices to Warrant Holders. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be constructed as conferring upon the Holders the right to vote or to consent or to receive notice to stockholders in respect of any meetings of stockholders for the election of directors or any other matter, or as having any rights whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company. If, however, at any time prior to the expiration of the Warrants and their exercise, any of the following events shall occur:

(a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares of Series 2 Preferred Stock for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise than out of current or retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such dividend or distribution on the books of the Company; or

(b) the Company shall offer to all the holders of its Series 2 Preferred Stock any additional shares of capital stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company, or any option right or warrant to subscribe therefor; or

(c) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company (other than in connection with a consolidation or merger) or a sale of all or substantially all of its property, assets and business as an entirety shall be proposed;

then, in any one or more of such events, the Company shall give written notice of such event at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date fixed as a record date for the dividend or the date of closing the transfer books for the determination of the issuance of any convertible or exchangeable securities or subscription rights, options or warrants or for the determination of the persons or entitled to vote on such proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale. Such notice shall specify such record date or the date of closing the transfer books, as the case may be. Failure to give such notice or any defect therein shall not affect the validity of any action taken in connection with the declaration or payment of any such dividend, or the issuance of any convertible or exchangeable securities or subscription rights, options or warrants, or any proposed dissolution, liquidation winding up or sale.

13. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly made when delivered, or mailed by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested:
