THIS WARRANT CERTIFIES THAT for value received, Monarch Pointe Fund, Ltd.,
or its registered assigns (hereinafter called the "Holder") is entitled to
purchase from USURF America, Inc. (hereinafter called the "Company"), the above
referenced number of fully paid and nonassessable shares (the "Shares") of
common stock (the "Common Stock"), of Company, at the Warrant Price per Share
referenced above; the number of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant
referenced above being subject to adjustment from time to time as described
herein. This Warrant is issued in connection with that certain Subscription
Agreement dated as of October 29, 2004, by and between the Company and Holder
(the "Subscription Agreement"). The exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to
the provisions, limitations and restrictions contained herein.
Term and Exercise.
Term. This Warrant is exercisable in whole or in part (but not as to any
fractional share of Common Stock), at any time and from time to time after the
date hereof prior to 6:00 p.m. on the Expiration Date set forth above.
Warrant Price. The Warrant shall be exercisable at the Warrant Price described
above.
Maximum Number of Shares. The maximum number of Shares of Common Stock
exercisable pursuant to this Warrant is 5,600,000 Shares. However,
notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Holder be
permitted to exercise this Warrant for a number of Shares greater than the
number that would cause the aggregate beneficial ownership of the Company's
Common Stock (calculated pursuant to Rule 13d-3 of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended) of the Holder and all persons affiliated with the Holder to
equal 9.99% of the Company's Common Stock then outstanding.
Procedure for Exercise of Warrant. Holder may exercise this Warrant by
delivering the following to the principal office of the Company in accordance
with Section 5.1 hereof: (i) a duly executed Notice of Exercise in substantially
the form attached as Schedule A, (ii) payment of the Warrant Price then in
effect for each of the Shares being purchased, as designated in the Notice of
Exercise, and (iii) this Warrant. Payment of the Warrant Price may be in cash,
certified or official bank check payable to the order of the Company, or wire
transfer of funds to the Company's account (or any combination of any of the
foregoing) in the amount of the Warrant Price for each share being purchased.
Delivery of Certificate and New Warrant. In the event of any exercise of the
rights represented by this Warrant, a certificate or certificates for the shares
of Common Stock so purchased, registered in the name of the Holder or such other
name or names as may be designated by the Holder, together with any other
securities or other property which the Holder is entitled to receive upon
exercise of this Warrant, shall be delivered to the Holder hereof, at the
Company's expense, within a reasonable time, not exceeding fifteen (15) calendar
days, after the rights represented by this Warrant shall have been so exercised;
and, unless this Warrant has expired, a new Warrant representing the number of
Shares (except a remaining fractional share), if any, with respect to which this
Warrant shall not then have been exercised shall also be issued to the Holder
hereof within such time. The person in whose name any certificate for shares of
Common Stock is issued upon exercise of this Warrant shall for all purposes be
deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date on which
the Warrant was surrendered and payment of the Warrant Price was received by the
Company, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate, except that,
if the date of such surrender and payment is on a date when the stock transfer
books of the Company are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the
holder of such Shares at the close of business on the next succeeding date on
which the stock transfer books are open.
Restrictive Legend. Each certificate for Shares shall bear a restrictive legend
in substantially the form as follows, together with any additional legend
required by (i) any applicable state securities laws and (ii) any securities
exchange upon which such Shares may, at the time of such exercise, be listed:
The shares of stock evidenced by this certificate have not been registered
under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered,
sold, pledged or otherwise transferred ("transferred") in the absence of
such registration or an applicable exemption therefrom. In the absence of
such registration, such shares may not be transferred unless, if the
Company requests, the Company has received a written opinion from counsel
in form and substance satisfactory to the Company stating that such
transfer is being made in compliance with all applicable federal and state
securities laws.
Any certificate issued at any time in exchange or substitution for any
certificate bearing such legend shall also bear such legend unless, in the
opinion of counsel for the Holder thereof (which counsel shall be reasonably
satisfactory to the Company), the securities represented thereby are not, at
such time, required by law to bear such legend.

Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issuable upon exercise or
conversion of the Warrant. In the event of a fractional interest, the number of
Shares to be issued shall be rounded down to the nearest whole Share.
Representations, Warranties and Covenants.
Representations and Warranties.
The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of its state of incorporation and has all necessary
power and authority to perform its obligations under this Warrant;
The execution, delivery and performance of this Warrant has been duly
authorized by all necessary actions on the part of the Company and constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the
Company in accordance with its terms; and
This Warrant does not violate and is not in conflict with any of the
provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Certificate of
Determination, Bylaws and any resolutions of the Company's Board of Directors or
stockholders, or any agreement of the Company, and no event has occurred and no
condition or circumstance exists that might (with or without notice or lapse of
time) constitute or result directly or indirectly in such a violation or
conflict.
Issuance of Shares. The Company covenants and agrees that all shares of Common
Stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the rights represented by this
Warrant will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable,
and free from all taxes, liens and charges with respect to the issue thereof.
The Company further covenants and agrees that it will pay when due and payable
any and all federal and state taxes which may be payable in respect of the issue
of this Warrant or any Common Stock or certificates therefor issuable upon the
exercise of this Warrant. The Company further covenants and agrees that the
Company will at all times have authorized and reserved, free from preemptive
rights, a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to provide for the
exercise in full of the rights represented by this Warrant. If at any time the
number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock of the Company shall
not be sufficient to effect the exercise of the Warrant in full, subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 1.3 hereto, then the Company will take all such
corporate action as may, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, be necessary
or advisable to increase the number of its authorized shares of Common Stock as
shall be sufficient to permit the exercise of the Warrant in full, subject to
the limitations set forth in Section 1.3 hereto, including without limitation,
using its best efforts to obtain any necessary stockholder approval of such
increase. The Company further covenants and agrees that if any shares of capital
stock to be reserved for the purpose of the issuance of shares upon the exercise
of this Warrant require registration with or approval of any governmental
authority under any federal or state law before such shares may be validly
issued or delivered upon exercise, then the Company will in good faith and as
expeditiously as possible endeavor to secure such registration or approval, as
the case may be. If and so long as the Common Stock issuable upon the exercise
of this Warrant is listed on any national securities exchange or the Nasdaq
Stock Market, the Company will, if permitted by the rules of such exchange or
market, list and keep listed on such exchange or market, upon official notice of
issuance, all shares of such Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant.
Other Adjustments.
Subdivision or Combination of Shares. In case the Company shall at any time
subdivide its outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be
proportionately reduced, and the number of Shares subject to this Warrant shall
be proportionately increased, and conversely, in case the outstanding Common
Stock of the Company shall be combined into a smaller number of shares, the
Warrant Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be
proportionately increased, and the number of Shares subject to this Warrant
shall be proportionately decreased.
Dividends in Common Stock, Other Stock or Property. If at any time or from time
to time the holders of Common Stock (or any shares of stock or other securities
at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall have received or
become entitled to receive, without payment therefor:
Common Stock, Options or any shares or other securities which are at any
time directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock,
or any rights or options to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise acquire any of
the foregoing by way of dividend or other distribution;
any cash paid or payable otherwise than as a regular cash dividend; or
Common Stock or additional shares or other securities or property
(including cash) by way of spin-off, split-up, reclassification, combination of
shares or similar corporate rearrangement (other than Common Stock issued as a
stock split or adjustments in respect of which shall be covered by the terms of
Section 3.1 above) and additional shares, other securities or property issued in
connection with a Change (as defined below) (which shall be covered by the terms
of Section 3.4 below), then and in each such case, the Holder hereof shall, upon
the exercise of this Warrant, be entitled to receive, in addition to the number
of shares of Common Stock receivable thereupon, and without payment of any
additional consideration therefor, the amount of stock and other securities and
property (including cash in the cases referred to in clause (b) above and this
clause (c)) which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise had such
Holder been the holder of record of such Common Stock as of the date on which
holders of Common Stock received or became entitled to receive such shares or
all other additional stock and other securities and property.
Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale. If any
recapitalization, reclassification or reorganization of the share capital of the
Company, or any consolidation or merger of the Company with another corporation,
or the sale of all or substantially all of its shares and/or assets or other
transaction (including, without limitation, a sale of substantially all of its
assets followed by a liquidation) shall be effected in such a way that holders
of Common Stock shall be entitled to receive shares, securities or other assets
or property (a "Change"), then, as a condition of such Change, lawful and
adequate provisions shall be made by the Company whereby the Holder hereof shall
thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the Common Stock
of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the
exercise of the rights represented hereby) such shares, securities or other
assets or property as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange
for the number of outstanding Common Stock which such Holder would have been
entitled to receive had such Holder exercised this Warrant immediately prior to
the consummation of such Change. The Company or its successor shall promptly
issue to Holder a new Warrant for such new securities or other property. The new
Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may
be practicable to give effect to the adjustments provided for in this Section 3
including, without limitation, adjustments to the Warrant Price and to the
number of securities or property issuable upon exercise of the new Warrant. The
provisions of this Section 3.3 shall similarly apply to successive Changes.

Ownership and Transfer.
Ownership of This Warrant. The Company may deem and treat the person in whose
name this Warrant is registered as the holder and owner hereof (notwithstanding
any notations of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the
Company) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary until presentation of this Warrant for registration of transfer as
provided in this Section 4.
Transfer and Replacement. This Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable
in whole or in part upon the books of the Company by the Holder hereof in person
or by duly authorized attorney, and a new Warrant or Warrants, of the same tenor
as this Warrant but registered in the name of the transferee or transferees (and
in the name of the Holder, if a partial transfer is effected) shall be made and
delivered by the Company upon surrender of this Warrant duly endorsed, at the
office of the Company in accordance with Section 5.1 hereof. Upon receipt by the
Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft or
destruction, and, in such case, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory
to it, and upon surrender of this Warrant if mutilated, the Company will make
and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor, in lieu of this Warrant; provided that
if the Holder hereof is an instrumentality of a state or local government or an
institutional holder or a nominee for such an instrumentality or institutional
holder an irrevocable agreement of indemnity by such Holder shall be sufficient
for all purposes of this Warrant, and no evidence of loss or theft or
destruction shall be necessary. This Warrant shall be promptly cancelled by the
Company upon the surrender hereof in connection with any transfer or
replacement. Except as otherwise provided above, in the case of the loss, theft
or destruction of a Warrant, the Company shall pay all expenses, taxes and other
charges payable in connection with any transfer or replacement of this Warrant,
other than income taxes and stock transfer taxes (if any) payable in connection
with a transfer of this Warrant, which shall be payable by the Holder. Holder
will not transfer this Warrant and the rights hereunder except in compliance
with federal and state securities laws and except after providing evidence of
such compliance reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

entitle the Holder to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company except
upon exercise in accordance with the terms hereof. No provision hereof, in the
absence of affirmative action by the Holder to purchase shares of Common Stock,

give rise to any liability of the Holder for the Warrant Price hereunder or as a
shareholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or
by creditors of the Company.

with the laws of the State of California as applied to agreements among

changed, waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing
signed by both parties (either generally or in a particular instance and either

of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or construction of any of the
provisions hereof.

proceedings based on or arising under this Agreement may be brought only in and
shall be resolved in the federal or state courts located in the City of Los
Angeles, California and consents to the jurisdiction of such courts for such
purpose. Each of the parties irrevocably waives the defense of an inconvenient
forum to the maintenance of such suit or proceeding in any such court. Each of
the parties further agrees that service of process upon such party mailed by
first class mail to the address set forth in Section 5.1 shall be deemed in
every respect effective service of process upon such party in any such suit or
proceeding. Nothing herein shall affect the right of a Holder to serve process
in any other manner permitted by law. Each of the parties agrees that a final
non-appealable judgment in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on such judgment or in any other
lawful manner.
Attorneys' Fees and Disbursements. If any action at law or in equity is
necessary to enforce or interpret the terms of this Agreement, the prevailing
party or parties shall be entitled to receive from the other party or parties
reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements in addition to any other relief to
