                                       TO
                            STOCK ISSUANCE AGREEMENT

            The following provisions are hereby incorporated into, and are
hereby made a part of, that certain Stock Issuance Agreement dated
_______________ (the "Issuance Agreement") by and between 1-800-FLOWERS.COM,
Inc. (the "Corporation") and _______________ ("Participant") evidencing the
stock issuance on such date to Participant under the terms of the Corporation's
1999 Stock Incentive Plan, and such provisions shall be effective immediately.
All capitalized terms in this Addendum, to the extent not otherwise defined

Agreement.

                             INVOLUNTARY TERMINATION
                           FOLLOWING CHANGE IN CONTROL

            1. To the extent the Repurchase Right is assigned to the successor
entity (or parent company) or otherwise continues in full force and in
connection with a Change in Control, no accelerated vesting of the Purchased
Shares shall occur upon such Change in Control, and the Repurchase Right shall
continue to remain in full force and effect in accordance with the provisions of
the Issuance Agreement. The Participant shall, over Participant's period of
Service following the Change in Control, continue to vest in the Purchased
Shares in one or more installments in accordance with the provisions of the
Issuance Agreement.

            2. Immediately upon an Involuntary Termination of Participant's
Service within eighteen (18) months following the Change in Control, the
Repurchase Right shall terminate automatically and all the Purchased Shares
shall vest in full.

            3. For purposes of this Addendum, the following definitions shall be
in effect:

                  An Involuntary Termination shall mean the termination of
Participant's Service by reason of:

                        (i) Participant's involuntary dismissal or discharge by
      the Corporation for reasons other than Misconduct, or

                        (ii) Participant's voluntary resignation following (A) a
      change in Participant's position with the Corporation (or Parent or
      Subsidiary employing Participant) which materially reduces Participant's
      level of responsibility, (B) a reduction in Participant's level of
      compensation (including base salary, fringe benefits and target bonus
      under any performance based bonus or incentive programs) by more than
      fifteen percent (15%) or (C) a relocation of Participant's place of
      employment by more than fifty (50) miles, provided and only if such
      change, reduction or relocation is effected by the Corporation without
      Participant's consent.


                  A Change in Control shall mean a change in ownership or
control of the Corporation effected through any of the following transactions:

                        (i) a merger, consolidation or reorganization approved
      by the Corporation's stockholders, unless securities representing more
      than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the voting
      securities of the successor corporation are immediately thereafter
      beneficially owned, directly or indirectly and in substantially the same
      proportion, by the persons who beneficially owned the Corporation's
      outstanding voting securities immediately prior to such transaction.

                        (ii) any stockholder-approved transfer or other
      disposition of all or substantially all of the Corporation's assets, or

                        (iii) the acquisition, directly or indirectly by any
      person or related group of persons (other than the Corporation or a person
      that directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by, or is under common
      control with, the Corporation), of beneficial ownership (within the
      meaning of Rule 13d-3 of the 1934 Act) of securities possessing more than
      fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the
      Corporation's outstanding securities pursuant to a tender or exchange
      offer made directly to the Corporation's stockholders.

            Misconduct shall mean the commission of any act of fraud,
embezzlement or dishonesty by the Participant, any unauthorized use or
disclosure by the Participant of confidential information or trade secrets of
the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary), or any other intentional
wrongdoing by the Participant, whether by omission or commission, which
adversely affects the business or affairs of the Corporation (or any Parent or
Subsidiary) in a material manner. The foregoing definition shall not limit the
grounds for the dismissal or discharge of the Participant or other person in the
Service of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary).


                                       2.
