THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY (THE "SECURITIES") HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR THE

ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES OR AN OPINION
OF COUNSEL OR OTHER EVIDENCE ACCEPTABLE TO THE CORPORATION THAT SUCH
REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED.
COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT
XYBERNAUT CORPORATION
EXPIRES ________, _____
No.: W-______ Number of Shares: ____
Date of Issuance: ________, 2002
1. Issuance. For good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which
is hereby acknowledged by Xybernaut Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), ____________________, or its registered assigns (the "Holder") is
hereby granted the right to purchase at any time until 5:00 P.M., New York City
time, on ________, _____ (the "Expiration Date"), ____________________
(________) shares of the Company's Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the
"Common Stock") at an initial exercise price of $1.50 per share (the "Exercise
Price"), subject to further adjustment as set forth in Section 6 hereof.
2. Exercise of Warrants. This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in
part at the Exercise Price per share of Common Stock payable hereunder, payable
in cash or by certified or official bank check. Upon surrender of this Warrant
Certificate with the annexed Notice of Exercise Form duly executed, together
with payment of the Exercise Price for the shares of Common Stock purchased, the
Holder shall be entitled to receive a certificate or certificates for the shares
of Common Stock so purchased.
3. Reservation of Shares. The Company hereby agrees that at all times
during the term of this Warrant there shall be reserved for issuance upon
exercise of this Warrant such number of shares of its Common Stock as shall be
required for issuance upon exercise of this Warrant (the "Warrant Shares").
4. Mutilation or Loss of Warrant. Upon receipt by the Company of
evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) receipt of
reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and (in the case of mutilation) upon
surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and
deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date and any such lost, stolen,
destroyed or mutilated Warrant shall thereupon become void.
5. Rights of the Holder. The Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be
entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law or equity,
and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant and
are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein.
6. Protection Against Dilution.
(a) Adjustment Mechanism. If an adjustment of the Exercise Price is
required pursuant to this Section 6, the Holder shall be entitled to purchase
such number of additional shares of Common Stock as will cause (i) the total
number of shares of Common Stock Holder is entitled to purchase pursuant to this
Warrant, multiplied by (ii) the adjusted purchase price per share, to equal
(iii) the dollar amount of the total number of shares of Common Stock Holder is
entitled to purchase before adjustment multiplied by the total purchase price
before adjustment.
(b) Capital Adjustments. In case of any stock split or reverse
stock split, stock dividend, reclassification of the Common Stock,
recapitalization, merger or consolidation, or like capital adjustment affecting
the Common Stock of the Company, the provisions of this Section 6 shall be
applied as if such capital adjustment event had occurred immediately prior to
the date of this Warrant and the original purchase price had been fairly
allocated to the stock resulting from such capital adjustment; and in other
respects the provisions of this Section 6 shall be applied in a fair, equitable
and reasonable manner so as to give effect, as nearly as may be, to the purposes
hereof. A rights offering to stockholders of the Company shall be deemed a stock
dividend to the extent of the bargain purchase element of the rights.
7. Warrant Call. At any time or from time to time after the
Registration Statement (as defined in Section 8(b) hereof) has been declared
effective, the Company, at its option, may, upon written notice to the Holder
(the "Call Notice"), call up to fifty percent (50%) of this Warrant if the
Common Stock trades at a price equal to or greater than $3.00 per share for
ten (10) consecutive trading days prior to the date the Company calls the
Warrant. To be effective, the Call Notice must be given within ten (10) days
after the aforementioned ten (10) day period. The rights and privileges
granted pursuant to this Warrant with respect to such Warrant Shares subject to
the Call Notice shall terminate if this Warrant is not exercised with respect to
such Warrant Shares by the Holder within ten (10) days after the Call Notice
is received by the Holder. In the event that this Warrant is not exercised by
the Holder with respect to the Warrant Shares subject to the Call Notice, this
Warrant shall expire at 5:00 p.m. eastern time on the call date and the Company
will remit to the Holder $0.01 per Warrant Share and a new Warrant certificate
representing the number of Warrant Shares, if any, with respect to which this
Warrant has not been exercised or subject to a Call Notice upon such Holder
tendering to the Company the expired Warrant certificate.

8. Transfer to Comply with the Securities Act; Registration Rights.
(a) This Warrant has not been registered under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), or any applicable state securities laws, and
has been issued to the Holder for investment and not with a view to the
distribution of either the Warrant or the Warrant Shares. Neither this Warrant

transfer contained in this Section.
