     Re:  Conversion of Convertible Notes to Convertible Preferred
          Stock of FinancialWeb.com, Inc. (the "Company")

Dear _________,


     As you are aware, FinancialWeb is contemplating commencing a private
placement of shares of its common stock in the next couple weeks.  This letter
serves as a request for your election to cancel and exchange your convertible
note and accrued interest thereon for shares of Series A Convertible Preferred
Stock of the Company (the "Preferred Stock") at a conversion rate of $3.00 per
share.  Accordingly, if you choose to convert the principal of your note, in the
amount of $_________, and the accrued interest in the note through November 10,
1999, in the amount of $__________, would convert into _______ shares of
Preferred Stock.

     As detailed in the enclosed Exhibit 1 - Certificate of Designation, the
newly issuable Preferred Stock will have attributes similar to the existing
convertible notes.  The Preferred Stock shall have (i) an initial right to
convert the Preferred Stock to common stock at $ 3.00 per share; (ii) an anti-
dilution provision; (iii) a liquidation preference to common stock; and (iv)
right of redemption by the Company.

     In February through April 1999, the Company issued an aggregate of $ 2.3
million principal amount of one year convertible notes with an annual interest
rate of 9.75%.  The principal and accrued, but unpaid, interest on the notes is
presently convertible at any time prior to maturity into common stock of the
Company at a conversion price between $ 4.00 - $ 4.50 per share.  Elimination of
debt from the Company's balance sheet will facilitate the Company's ability to
attract additional funds.  Additionally, by converting the debt into equity, the
Company can free up cash being accrued for principal and interest payments due
in late 1999 and early 2000, which will improve the Company's cash flow
position.

     Please find enclosed for your review the following exhibits:

          Exhibit 1:  Certificate of Designation of the Series A Convertible
                      Preferred Stock.

          Exhibit 2:  Copies of the Company's Registration Statement on
                      Form 10-SB, as amended, filed on April 16, 1999 and the
                      Company's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-QSB for the
                      quarters ended June 30, 1999 and September 30, 1999.


     The Company is requesting the holders of the convertible notes elect to
exchange their notes for Preferred Stock.  If you chose to do so, please
indicate your election to the exchange by completing and executing the attached
Election Form and faxing the Election Form to Pepper Hamilton, LLP at
_____________ by ___________ and forwarding the originally signed Election Form
and your original convertible note for cancellation to the Company's address
provided above.  If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact
____________ (Pepper Hamilton LLP, Company Counsel at _____________) or me.
Given the anticipated time frame of the proposed private placement, we would
appreciate your prompt response.  Thank you for your cooperation.

                                   Very truly yours,



                                   James Gagel
                                   Acting Chief Executive Officer and
                                   Executive Vice President



                           [ELECTION FORM TO FOLLOW]


                                 ELECTION FORM
