            VOID AFTER 5 P.M., CALIFORNIA TIME ON AUGUST 18, 2003


                             WARRANT TO PURCHASE
                            CLASS A COMMON STOCK

       SEPRAGEN CORPORATION, a California corporation (the "Company"),
  hereby certifies that K. CHARLES JANAC or his registered assign(s)
  (collectively referred to as the "Holder") is entitled, subject to the
  terms set forth below, to purchase from the Company Two Hundred Thirty
  Four Thousand Six Hundred and Sixty Seven (234,667) fully paid and
  nonassessable shares of the Class A Common Stock of the Company (the
  "Shares") at the purchase price of $0.46875 per share (the "Purchase
  Price"). Both the Purchase Price and such number of Shares are subject
  to adjustments as described below.

       1.   Exercise of Warrant; Reservation of Shares. Subject to the
  restrictions herein, this warrant may be exercised in whole or in part
  by the Holder at any time before 5 p.m., California local time, on
  August 18, 2003 by the surrender of this Warrant, together with the
  Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Attachment 1, duly completed and
  executed, at the principal office of the Company, accompanied by payment
  in cash or by check in full with respect to the Shares being purchased.
  This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to
  the close of business on the date of its surrender for exercise as
  provided above. The Company shall at all times after the date of this
  Warrant and until expiration of this Warrant reserve for issuance and
  delivery upon issuance of this Warrant the number of Shares of Common
  Stock required for exercise of this Warrant.

       2.   Delivery of Stock Certificates, Etc. on Exercise. As soon as
  practicable after the exercise of this Warrant, and in any event within
  thirty (30) days thereafter, the Company at its expense (including the
  payment by it of any applicable issue taxes) will cause to be issued in
  the name of, and delivered to, the Holder hereof, or as such Holder
  (upon payment by such Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may
  direct, (i) a certificate or certificates for the number of Shares to
  which such Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise and (ii) if this
  Warrant is not exercised in full, a warrant containing terms identical
  to herein, provided the number of Shares subject to this Warrant shall
  be reduced by the number of Shares exercised by delivery of the Notice
  of Exercise pursuant to Section 1.

       3.   Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Shares. The
  Exercise Price and the total number of Warrant Shares shall be subject
  to adjustment from time to time upon the occurrence of certain events
  described in this Section 3. Upon each adjustment of the Exercise Price,
  the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to purchase, at
  the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment, the number of shares
  obtained by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior
  to such adjustment by the number of shares purchasable pursuant hereto
  immediately prior to such adjustment, and dividing the product thereof
  by the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment.

            3.1  Subdivision or Combination of Stock. In case the Company
  shall at any time subdivide its outstanding shares of any class 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 Warrant Shares issuable hereunder
  proportionately increased, and conversely, in case the outstanding
  shares of any class of the Common Stock of the Company shall be combined
  into a smaller number of shares, the Exercise Price in effect
  immediately prior to such combination shall be proportionately increased
  and the number of Warrant Shares issuable hereunder proportionately
  decreased.

            3.2  Reclassification. If any reclassification of the capital
  stock of the Company or any reorganization, consolidation, merger, or
  any sale, lease, license, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction
  or a series of related transactions) of all or substantially all, of the
  business and/or assets of the Company (the "Reclassification Events")
  shall be effected in such a way that holders of any class of Common
  Stock shall be entitled to receive stock, securities, or other assets or
  property, then, as a condition of such Reclassification Event lawful and
  adequate provisions shall be made whereby the Holder hereof shall
  thereafter have the right to purchase and receive (in lieu of the shares
  of Common Stock of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and
  receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented hereby) such
  shares of stock, securities, or other assets or property as may be
  issued or payable with respect to or in exchange for a number of
  outstanding shares of such Common Stock equal to the number of shares of
  such stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the
  exercise of the rights represented hereby. In any Reclassification
  Event, appropriate provision shall be made with respect to the rights
  and interests of the Holder of this Warrant to the end that the
  provisions hereof (including, without limitation, provisions for
  adjustments of the Exercise Price and of the number of Warrant Shares),
  shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any
  shares of stock, securities, or assets thereafter deliverable upon the
  exercise hereof.

            3.3  Adjustments Upon Issuance of Additional Stock. If the
  Company shall issue "Additional Stock" (as defined below) for a
  consideration per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect on
  the date and immediately prior to such issue, then and  in such event,
  such Exercise Price shall be reduced concurrently with such issue, to a
  price equal to the price per share for such Additional Stock.

       For purposes of this subsection "Additional Stock" shall mean all
  common stock issued by the Corporation after the date hereof other than
  common stock issued or issuable at any time (1) upon conversion of any
  preferred stock; (2) upon exercise of options issued to officers,
  directors, and employees of, and consultants to, the Company after the
  date hereof and approved by the Board of Directors pursuant to an
  employee stock option plan; or (3) upon exercise of Warrants outstanding
  on the date hereof (4) after August 18 1999; (5) provided, however, that
  the company shall not be deemed to have issued additional stock until
  after the Company has issued securities with aggregate proceeds to the
  Company of $500,000.

       For the purpose of making any adjustment in the Exercise Price as
  provided above, the consideration received by the Company for any issue
  or sale of Additional Stock will be computed:

                 (a)  to the extent it consists of cash, as the amount of
  cash received by the Company before deduction of any offering expenses
  payable by the Company and any underwriting or similar commissions,
  compensation, or concessions paid or allowed by the Company in
  connection with such issue or sale;

                 (b)  to the extent it consists of property other than
  cash, at the fair market value of that property as determined in good
  faith by the Company s Board of Directors; and

                 (c)  if common stock is issued or sold together with
  other stock or securities or other assets of the Company for a
  consideration which covers both, as the portion of the consideration so
  received that may be reasonably determined in good faith by the Board of
  Directors to be allocable to such common stock.  

       If the Company (1) grants any rights or options to subscribe for,
  purchase, or otherwise acquires common stock, or (2) issues or sells any
  security convertible into common stock, then, in each case, the price
  per share of common stock issuable on the exercise of the rights or
  options or the conversion of the securities will be determined by
  dividing the total amount, if any, received or receivable by the Company
  as consideration for the granting of the rights or options or the issue
  or sale of the convertible securities, plus the minimum aggregate amount
  of additional consideration payable to the Company on exercise or
  conversion of the securities, by the maximum number of shares of common
  stock issuable on the exercise of conversion. Such granting or issue or
  sale will be considered to be an issue or sale for cash of the maximum
  number of shares of common stock issuable on exercise or conversion at
  the price per share determined under this subsection, and the Exercise
  Price will be adjusted as above provided to reflect (on the basis of
  that determination) the issue or sale. No further adjustment of the
  Exercise Price will be made as a result of the actual issuance of common
  stock on the exercise of any such rights or options or the conversion of
  any such convertible securities.

       Upon the redemption or repurchase of any such securities or the
  expiration or termination of the right to convert into, exchange for, or
  exercise with respect to, common stock, the Exercise Price will be
  readjusted to such price as would have been obtained had the adjustment
  made upon their issuance been made upon the basis of the issuance of
  only the number of such securities as were actually converted into,
  exchanged for, or exercised with respect to, common stock. If the
  purchase price or conversion or exchange rate provided for in any such
  security changes at any time, then, upon such change becoming effective,
  the Exercise Price then in effect will be readjusted forthwith to such
  price as would have been obtained had the adjustment made upon the
  issuance of such securities been made upon the basis of (1) the issuance
  of only the number of shares of common stock theretofore actually
  delivered upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of such securities,
  and the total consideration received therefor, and (2) the granting or
  issuance, at the time of such change, of any such securities then still
  outstanding for the consideration, if any, received by the Company
  therefor and to be received on the basis of such changed price or rate.

            3.4  Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise
  Price or any increase or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares, the
  Company shall give written notice thereof, by first class mail postage
  prepaid, addressed to the registered Holder of this Warrant at the
  address of such Holder as shown on the books of the Company. The notice
  shall be prepared and signed by the Company s Chief Financial Officer
  and shall state the Exercise Price resulting from such adjustment and
  the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of shares purchasable at
  such price upon the exercise of this Warrant, setting forth in
  reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which
  such calculation is based.

       4.   Notices of Record Date, Etc. In the event of any taking by the
  Company of a record of the holders of any class of securities for the
  purpose of determining the holders thereof who are entitled to receive
  any dividend (other than a cash dividend at the same rate as the rate of
  the last cash dividend theretofore paid) or other distribution (the
  "Distribution") the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the
  Holder of the Warrant a notice specifying the date of any such
  Distribution and stating the amount and character of such Distribution.
  Such notice shall be mailed at least ten (10) days prior to the date
  therein specified.

       5.   Replacement of Warrant. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably
  satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft, destruction or
  mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or
  destruction, upon delivery of an indemnity agreement reasonably
  satisfactory in form and amount to the Company or, in the case of such
  mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company
  at its expense will execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new warrant
  of like tenor.

       6.   Negotiability, Etc. This Warrant may be transferred in whole
  or in part by the Holder to any person who, in the opinion of counsel
  reasonably satisfactory to the  Company, is a person to whom this
  Warrant or the Shares may be legally transferred without registration
  and without the delivery of a current prospectus under the Securities
  Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), as well as applicable State
  Securities laws with respect thereto, and then only against receipt of
  an agreement of such person to comply with the provisions of this
  section with respect to any resale or disposition of such securities
  unless, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, such agreement is not
  required. The terms hereof shall be binding upon the executors,
  administrators, heirs and assigns of the Holder.

       7.   Notices, Etc. All notices and other communication shall be
  mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, at such address as may have
  been furnished in writing by the receiving party.

       8.   Governing Law Headings. This Warrant is being delivered in the
  State of California and shall be construed and enforced in accordance
  with and governed by the laws of such state. The headings of this
  Warrant are for purposes of reference only, and shall not limit or
  otherwise affect any of the terms hereof.

       9.   Conversion of Warrant.

            9.1  Right to Convert. In addition to, and without limiting
  the other rights of the Holder hereunder, the Holder shall have the
  right (the "Conversion Right") to convert this Warrant or any part
  hereof into Shares at any time and from time to time during the term
  hereof. Upon exercise of the Conversion Right with respect to a
  particular number of Shares (the "Converted Shares"), the Company shall
  deliver to the Holder, without payment by the Holder, or any Purchase
  Price or any cash or other consideration, that number of Shares computed
  using the following formula:

            X = (B-A)/Y

  Where:    X =  The number of Shares to be issued to the Holder.

            Y =  The fair Market Value of one Share as of the Conversion
                 Date. If. the Company's Common Stock is publicly traded
                 at the time of exercise of this Warrant, the Fair Market
                 Value shall be the average closing price of the Company's
                 Common Stock on the five trading days prior to the
                 Conversion Date. If the Company's Common Stock is not
                 publicly traded at the time of exercise of this Warrant,
                 the Fair Market Value of one Share as of the Conversion
                 Date shall be determined in good faith by the Board of
                 Directors of the Company. 

            B =  The Aggregate Fair Market Value (i.e., Fair Market Value
                 x Converted Shares) 

            A =  The Aggregate Purchase Price (i.e., Purchase Price x
                 Converted Shares)

            9.2  Method of Exercise. The Conversion Right may be exercised
  by the Holder by the surrender of this Warrant at the Company's
  principal office, together with a written statement (the "Conversion
  Statement") specifying that the Holder intends to exercise the
  Conversion Right and indicating the number of Shares to be acquired upon
  exercise of the Conversion Right. Such conversion shall be effective
  upon the Company's receipt of this Warrant, together with the Conversion
  Statement, or on such later date as is specified in the Conversion
  Statement (the "Conversion Date"). Certificates for the Shares so
  acquired shall be delivered to the Holder within a reasonable time, not
  exceeding thirty (30) days after the Conversion Date. If applicable, the
  Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, deliver
  a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the
  balance of the Shares which Holder is entitled to purchase hereunder.
  The issuance of Shares upon exercise of this Warrant shall be made
  without charge to the Holder for any issuance tax with respect thereto
  or any other cost incurred by the Company in connection with the
  conversion of this Warrant and the related issuance of Shares.
