COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

  **Date of Issuance:  October 21, 2003**Certificate No. W-8
                FOR VALUE RECEIVED, VitalStream Holdings, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to Plexus Data, Inc., or its registered assigns (the "Registered Holder"), the right to purchase from the Company up to an aggregate of 25,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Warrant Share Amount") at a price per share equal to $0.36 (as adjusted from time to time hereunder, the "Exercise Price").

                The amount and kind of securities obtainable pursuant to the rights granted hereunder and the Exercise Price for such securities are subject to adjustment pursuant to the provisions contained in this Warrant.

                This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:

                Section 1. Exercise of Warrant.
                1A.Exercise Period.  The Registered Holder may exercise, in whole or in part (but not as to a fractional share of Common Stock), the purchase rights represented by this Warrant at any time and from time to time after the Date of Issuance until and including the third anniversary of the Date of Issuance (the "Exercise Period").  

                1B.Exercise Procedure.
                (i)This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised when the Company has received all of the following items (the "Exercise Time"):

                (a)a completed Exercise Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached here, executed by the Person exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant (the "Purchaser");

                (b) this Warrant;

                (c)if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the Purchaser, an Assignment Agreement or Assignment Agreements, substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit B attached hereto, evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the Purchaser, in which case the Registered Holder shall have complied with the provisions set forth in Section 5 of this Warrant; and

                (d)a check payable to the Company in an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased upon such exercise (the "Aggregate Exercise Price"). 

                (ii)Certificates for shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be delivered by the Company to the Purchaser within thirty (30) business days after the date of the Exercise Time.  Unless this Warrant has expired or all of the purchase rights represented hereby have been exercised, the Company shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical hereto, representing the rights formerly represented by this Warrant which have not expired or been exercised and shall within such thirty (30) business day period, deliver such new Warrant to the Person designated for delivery in the Exercise Agreement.

                (iii)The Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise Time, and the Purchaser shall be deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder of such Common Stock at the Exercise Time. 

                1C.1C.Exercise Agreement.  Upon any exercise of this Warrant, the Exercise Agreement shall be substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit A attached hereto, except that if the shares of Common Stock are not to be issued in the name of the Person in whose name this Warrant is registered, the Exercise Agreement shall also state the name of the Person to whom the certificates for the shares of Common Stock are to be issued.

                1D.Fractional Shares.  If a fractional share of Common Stock would, but for the provisions of Section 1A of this Warrant, be issuable upon exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Company shall, within thirty (30) business days after the date of the Exercise Time, deliver to the Purchaser a check payable to the Purchaser in lieu of such fractional share in an amount equal to the difference between Market Price of such fractional share as of the date of the Exercise Time and the Exercise Price of such fractional share.

                Section 2.Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares.  In order to prevent dilution of the rights granted under this Warrant, the Exercise Price shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2, and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as provided in this Section 2.

                2A.Effect on Exercise Price of Certain Events.  For purposes of determining the adjusted Exercise Price under of this Warrant, the following shall be applicable:

                (i)Subdivision or Combination of Common Stock.  If the Company at any time during the Exercise Period subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision shall be proportionately reduced and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately increased.  If, after the Closing Date, the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split or otherwise) one or more classes of its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. 

                (ii)Reorganization, Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.  Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or other transaction, in each case which is effected in such a way that the holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in exchange for Common Stock, is referred to herein as "Organic Change."  Prior to the consummation of any Organic Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision to insure that the Registered Holder shall thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or addition to (as the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon the exercise of such Holder's Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place.  In any such case, the Company shall make appropriate provision with respect to such Holders' rights and interests to insure that the provisions of this Section 2 of this Warrant shall thereafter be applicable to any shares of stock or other securities and property deliverable upon exercise herof.

                2B.Notices. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Registered Holder as soon as practicable, setting forth information regarding the calculation of such adjustment. 
                Section 3.Definitions.  The following terms have meanings set forth below:

                "Common Stock" means (a) the Common Stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company as more fully described in the certificate of incorporation of the Company and (b) any capital stock or other Equity Securities issued or issuable directly or indirectly with respect to the Common Stock referred to in clause (a) above by way of stock dividend or stock split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, merger, consolidation or other reorganization.

                "Date of Issuance" has the meaning set forth in Section 6 of this Warrant.

                "Market Price" of any security means (a) if such security is listed on an exchange,  the average closing price of such security on the principal exchange on which such security is listed, or,  if there has been no sale on any such exchange on any day, the closing price of such security on the principal exchange on the most recent day on which sales of such security have taken place on such exchange or (b) if such security is not listed on an exchange but is quoted through the NASDAQ System, or on the domestic over-the-counter market as reported by the National Quotation Bureau, the average of the closing sales prices as reported by the NASDAQ System or the National Quotation Bureau, as applicable, over a period of 5 days consisting of the day as of which "Market Price" is being determined and the 4 consecutive business days prior to such day on which trades were reported in such security. If at any time such security is not listed on any securities exchange or quoted in the NASDAQ System or the over-the-counter market, the "Market Price" shall be the fair value thereof determined jointly by the Company and the Registered Holder.  If such parties are unable to reach agreement within a reasonable period of time, such fair value shall be determined by an appraiser jointly selected by the Company and the Registered Holder.  The determination of such appraiser shall be final and binding upon the parties, and the fees and expenses of such appraiser shall be borne equally by the Company and the Registered Holder.

No provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Registered Holder to purchase Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Registered Holder shall give rise to any liability of such Holder for the Exercise Price of Common Stock acquirable by exercise hereof or as a stockholder of the Company.

                Section 5.Warrant Transferable.  Subject to the transfer conditions referred to in the legend endorsed hereon, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, without charge to the Registered Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant with a properly executed Assignment (in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto) at the principal office of the Company.
