    FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, the undersigned, Eco Building International, a Nevada corporation
(together with its successors and assigns, the “Issuer”), hereby
certifies that ____________________________________ (the “Holder”) or its
registered assigns is entitled to subscribe for and purchase, during the Term
(as hereinafter defined), up to ____________________________________
(_____________) shares of the duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable Common Stock of the Issuer, at an exercise price per share equal
to the Warrant Price then in effect, subject, however, to the provisions and
upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. Capitalized terms used in
this Warrant and not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings
specified in Section 8 hereof.

     

    1.  
Term. The term
of this Warrant shall commence on April 27, 2010 and shall expire at 6:00 p.m.,
Eastern Time, on April 27, 2015 (such period being the “Term” and such date,
the “Termination
Date”).

     

    2.  
Method of Exercise;
Payment; Issuance of New Warrant; Transfer and Exchange.

     

    (a)
  Time of
Exercise. The purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be
exercised in whole or in part during the Term for such number of shares of
Common Stock set forth above, which number is equal to forty percent (40%) of
the number of shares of Common Stock into which the Series A Convertible
Preferred Stock issued by the Issuer to the Holder on the Original Issue Date
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement may be converted.
 

    


    (b)
  Method of
Exercise. The Holder hereof may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in
part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the exercise form attached hereto
duly executed (“Notice
of Exercise”)) at the principal office of the Issuer, and by the payment
to the Issuer of an amount of consideration therefor equal to the Warrant Price
in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of shares of
Warrant Stock with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised,
payable at such Holder’s election (i) by certified or official bank check or by
wire transfer to an account designated by the Issuer, (ii) by “cashless
exercise” in accordance with the provisions of subsection (c) of this Section 2,
or (iii) by a combination of the foregoing methods of payment selected by the
Holder of this Warrant.

     

    (c)
  Cashless
Exercise. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary and
commencing twelve (12) months following the Original Issue Date, if (i) the Per
Share Market Value of one share of Common Stock is greater than the Warrant
Price (at the date of calculation as set forth below) and (ii) a registration
statement under the Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Stock
is not then in effect, in lieu of exercising this Warrant by payment of cash,
the Holder may elect to exercise this Warrant by a cashless exercise and shall
receive the number of shares of Common Stock equal to an amount (as determined
below) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer
together with the properly endorsed Notice of Exercise in which event the Issuer
shall issue to the Holder a number of shares of Common Stock computed using the
following formula:

     

    
      
         


      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

    

     

    
      	 
      	 
      
	 
      	
              X =
      Y - (A)(Y)

            
	
                

            	
                 
      B

            
	 
      	 
      	 
      
	
                Where

            	
              X
      =

            	
              the
      number of shares of Common Stock to be issued to the
    Holder.

            
	 
      	 
      	 
      
	 
      	
              Y
      =

            	
              the
      number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant
      in accordance with the terms of this Warrant by means of a cash exercise
      rather than a cashless exercise.

            
	 
      	 
      	 
      
	 
      	
              A
      =

            	
              the
      Warrant Price.

            
	 
      	 
      	 
      
	 
      	
              B
      =

            	
              the
      Per Share Market Value of one share of Common Stock on the Trading Day
      immediately preceding the date of such
election.

            


    

     

    (d)
  Issuance of
Stock Certificates. In the event of any exercise of this Warrant in
accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, certificates for
the shares of Warrant Stock so purchased shall be dated the date of such
exercise and delivered to the Holder hereof within a reasonable time, not
exceeding five (5) Trading Days after such exercise (the “Delivery Date”) or,
at the request of the Holder (provided that a registration statement under the
Securities Act providing for the resale of the Warrant Stock is then in effect
or that the shares of Warrant Stock are otherwise exempt from registration),
issued and delivered to the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) account on the
Holder’s behalf via the Deposit Withdrawal Agent Commission System (“DWAC”) within a
reasonable time, not exceeding five (5) Trading Days after such exercise, and
the Holder hereof shall be deemed for all purposes to be the holder of the
shares of Warrant Stock so purchased as of the date of such exercise.
Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, the Issuer or its transfer agent
shall only be obligated to issue and deliver the shares to the DTC on a holder’s
behalf via DWAC if such exercise is in connection with a sale or other exemption
from registration by which the shares may be issued without a restrictive legend
and the Issuer and its transfer agent are participating in DTC through the DWAC
system. The Holder shall deliver this original Warrant, or an indemnification
undertaking with respect to such Warrant in the case of its loss, theft or
destruction, at such time that this Warrant is fully exercised. With respect to
partial exercises of this Warrant, the Issuer shall keep written records for the
Holder of the number of shares of Warrant Stock exercised as of each date of
exercise.

     

    (e)
  Compensation
for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Certificates Upon Exercise. In
addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Issuer fails to
cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or certificates
representing the Warrant Stock pursuant to an exercise on or before the Delivery
Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase
(in an open market transaction or otherwise) shares of Common Stock to deliver
in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Stock which the Holder
anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the
Issuer shall: (1) pay in cash to the Holder the amount by which (x) the Holder’s
total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of
Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (A) the
number of shares of Warrant Stock that the Issuer was required to deliver to the
Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (B) the price at which the
sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (2) at the
option of the holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent
number of shares of Warrant Stock for which such exercise was not honored or
deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been
issued had the Issuer timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations
hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total
purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted
exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to
such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (1) of the immediately
preceding sentence the Issuer shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The
Holder shall provide the Issuer written notice indicating the amounts payable to
the Holder in respect of the Buy-In, together with applicable confirmations and
other evidence reasonably requested by the Issuer. Nothing herein shall limit a
Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or
in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or
injunctive relief with respect to the Issuer’s failure to timely deliver
certificates representing shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant
as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

    (f)
  Transferability
of Warrant. Subject to Section 2(h) hereof, this Warrant may be
transferred by a Holder, in whole or in part, without the consent of the Issuer.
If transferred pursuant to this paragraph, this Warrant may be transferred on
the books of the Issuer by the Holder hereof in person or by duly authorized
attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Issuer,
properly endorsed (by the Holder executing an assignment in the form attached
hereto) and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental
charge imposed upon such transfer. This Warrant is exchangeable at the principal
office of the Issuer for Warrants to purchase the same aggregate number of
shares of Warrant Stock, each new Warrant to represent the right to purchase
such number of shares of Warrant Stock as the Holder hereof shall designate at
the time of such exchange. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall
be dated the Original Issue Date and shall be identical with this Warrant except
as to the number of shares of Warrant Stock issuable pursuant thereto.
 

     

    (g)
  Continuing
Rights of Holder. The Issuer will, at the time of or at any time after
each exercise of this Warrant, upon the request of the Holder hereof,
acknowledge in writing the extent, if any, of its continuing obligation to
afford to such Holder all rights to which such Holder shall continue to be
entitled after such exercise in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, provided that if any
such Holder shall fail to make any such request, the failure shall not affect
the continuing obligation of the Issuer to afford such rights to such
Holder.

    


    (h)
  Compliance with
Securities Laws.

     

    (i)
  The Holder of this Warrant, by acceptance hereof, acknowledges that this
Warrant and the shares of Warrant Stock to be issued upon exercise hereof are
being acquired solely for the Holder’s own account and not as a nominee for any
other party, and for investment, and that the Holder will not offer, sell or
otherwise dispose of this Warrant or any shares of Warrant Stock to be issued
upon exercise hereof except pursuant to an effective registration statement, or
an exemption from registration, under the Securities Act and any applicable
state securities laws.

     

    (ii)
  Except as provided in paragraph (iii) below, this Warrant and all
certificates representing shares of Warrant Stock issued upon exercise hereof
shall be stamped or imprinted with a legend in substantially the following
form:

     

    THIS
WARRANT AND THE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES
ACT”) OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR OTHERWISE
DISPOSED OF UNLESS REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER APPLICABLE
STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR THE ISSUER SHALL HAVE RECEIVED AN OPINION OF COUNSEL
REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER THAT REGISTRATION OF SUCH SECURITIES UNDER
THE SECURITIES ACT AND UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS
IS NOT REQUIRED.

     

     

    (iii)
  The Issuer agrees to reissue this Warrant or certificates representing
any of the Warrant Stock, without the legend set forth above if at such time,
prior to making any transfer of any such securities, the Holder shall give
written notice to the Issuer describing the manner and terms of such transfer.
Such proposed transfer will not be effected until: (a) either (i) the Issuer has
received an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the
effect that the registration of such securities under the Securities Act is not
required in connection with such proposed transfer, (ii) a registration
statement under the Securities Act covering such proposed disposition has been
filed by the Issuer with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission
and has become effective under the Securities Act, or (iii) the Issuer has
received other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer that such
registration and qualification under the Securities Act and state securities
laws are not required; and (b) either (i) the Issuer has received an opinion of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer, to the effect that registration
or qualification under the securities or “blue sky” laws of any state is not
required in connection with such proposed disposition, or (ii) compliance with
applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws has been effected or a valid
exemption exists with respect thereto. The Issuer will respond to any such


     

    
      
         


      

      
        3

        
          

        

      

      
         


      

       

      notice
from a holder within five (5) Trading Days. In the case of any proposed transfer
under this Section 2(h), the Issuer will use reasonable efforts to comply with
any such applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws, but shall in no event
be required, (x) to qualify to do business in any state where it is not then
qualified, (y) to take any action that would subject it to tax or to the general
service of process in any state where it is not then subject, or (z) to comply
with state securities or “blue sky” laws of any state for which registration by
coordination is unavailable to the Issuer. The restrictions on transfer
contained in this Section 2(h) shall be in addition to, and not by way of
limitation of, any other restrictions on transfer contained in any other section
of this Warrant. Whenever a certificate representing the Warrant Stock is
required to be issued to the Holder without a legend, in lieu of delivering
physical certificates representing the Warrant Stock, the Issuer shall cause its
transfer agent to electronically transmit the Warrant Stock to the Holder by
crediting the account of the Holder or Holder’s Prime Broker with DTC through
its DWAC system (to the extent not inconsistent with any provisions of this
Warrant or the Purchase Agreement).

    

     

    (i)
  Accredited
Investor Status. In no event may the Holder exercise this Warrant in
whole or in part unless the Holder is an “accredited investor” as defined in
Regulation D under the Securities Act.

     

    3.  
Stock Fully Paid;
Reservation and Listing of Shares; Covenants.

     

    (a)
  Stock Fully
Paid. The Issuer represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that all
shares of Warrant Stock which may be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant or
otherwise hereunder will, when issued in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and
free from all taxes, liens and charges created by or through the Issuer. The
Issuer further covenants and agrees that during the period within which this
Warrant may be exercised, the Issuer will at all times have authorized and
reserved for the purpose of the issuance upon exercise of this Warrant a number
of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock equal to at least one hundred
twenty-five percent (125%) of the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of this Warrant without regard to any limitations on
exercise.

     

    (b)
  Reservation. If any
shares of Common Stock required to be reserved for issuance upon exercise of
this Warrant or as otherwise provided hereunder require registration or
qualification with any Governmental Authority under any federal or state law
before such shares may be so issued, the Issuer will in good faith use its best
efforts as expeditiously as possible at its expense to cause such shares to be
duly registered or qualified, in accordance with the terms and provisions of the
Registration Rights Agreement. If the Issuer shall list any shares of Common
Stock on any securities exchange or market it will, at its expense, list
thereon, and maintain and increase when necessary such listing, of, all shares
of Warrant Stock from time to time issued upon exercise of this Warrant or as
otherwise provided hereunder (provided that such
Warrant Stock has been registered pursuant to a registration statement under the
Securities Act then in effect), and, to the extent permissible under the
applicable securities exchange rules, all unissued shares of Warrant Stock which
are at any time issuable hereunder, so long as any shares of Common Stock shall
be so listed. The Issuer will also so list on each securities exchange or
market, and will maintain such listing of, any other securities which the Holder
of this Warrant shall be entitled to receive upon the exercise of this Warrant
if at the time any securities of the same class shall be listed on such
securities exchange or market by the Issuer.

     

    (c)
  Covenants. The Issuer
shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending the Certificate
of Incorporation or the by-laws of the Issuer, or through any reorganization,
transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of
securities or any other action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or
performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such
actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of the Holder
hereof against dilution (to the extent specifically provided herein) or
impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuer will
(i) not permit the par value, if any, of its Common Stock to exceed the then
effective Warrant Price, (ii) not amend or modify any provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation or by-laws of the Issuer in any manner that would
adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Warrants, (iii) take all such
action as may be reasonably necessary in order that the Issuer may validly and
legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, free and
clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances and restrictions (other than as
provided herein) upon the exercise of this Warrant, and (iv) use its best
efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any
public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof as may be reasonably
necessary to enable the Issuer to perform its obligations under this
Warrant.

    (d)
  Loss, Theft,
Destruction of Warrants. Upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the
Issuer of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of any
Warrant and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of
indemnity or security satisfactory to the Issuer or, in the case of any such
mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant, the Issuer will
make and deliver, in lieu of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant,
a new Warrant of like tenor and representing the right to purchase the same
number of shares of Common Stock.

     

    (e)
  Payment of
Taxes. The Issuer will pay any documentary stamp taxes attributable to
the initial issuance of the Warrant Stock issuable upon exercise of this
Warrant; provided, however, that the
Issuer shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in
respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any certificates
representing Warrant Stock in a name other than that of the Holder in respect to
which such shares are issued.

    


    4.  
Approval Required for
New Issuance. Unless otherwise approved by Maxim Group, LLC, for a period
of two years following the Date of Issuance, the Company shall not issue any
securities, as compensation or otherwise, except for the Exempt Issuances (as
defined in the Series A Certificate of Designation).

     

    5.  
Fractional
Shares. No fractional shares of Warrant Stock will be issued in
connection with any exercise hereof, but in lieu of such fractional shares, the
Issuer shall, at its option, (a) pay an amount in cash equal to the Warrant
Price multiplied by such fraction or (b) round the number of shares to be issued
upon exercise up to the nearest whole number of shares.

     

    6.  
Ownership Cap and
Exercise Restriction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth
in this Warrant, at no time may the Holder exercise this Warrant if the number
of shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to such exercise would cause the
number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder at such time
to exceed, when aggregated with all other shares of Common Stock owned by the
Holder and its affiliates at such time, the number of shares of Common Stock
which would result in the Holder, its affiliates, any investment manager having
discretionary investment authority over the accounts or assets of the Holder and
its affiliates, or any other persons whose beneficial ownership of Common Stock
would be aggregated for purposes of Section 13(d) and Section 16 of the Exchange
Act, beneficially owning (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the
Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) in excess of 4.9% of the then issued and
outstanding shares of Common Stock; provided, however, that upon
the Holder providing the Issuer with sixty-one (61) days notice (pursuant to
this certificate) (the “Waiver Notice”) that
the Holder would like to waive this Section 6 with regard to any or all shares
of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, this Section 6 shall be
of no force or effect with regard to those shares of Common Stock referenced in
the Waiver Notice; provided, further, that during
the sixty-one (61) day period prior to the Termination Date, the Holder may
waive this Section 6 by providing a Waiver Notice at any time during such
sixty-one (61) day period; provided, further, that any
Waiver Notice provided during the sixty-one (61) day period prior to the
Termination Date will not be effective until the Termination Date.

     

                7.
  Registration
Rights. The Holder of this Warrant is entitled to the benefit of certain
registration rights with respect to the shares of Warrant Stock issuable upon
the exercise of this Warrant pursuant to that certain Registration Rights
Agreement, of even date herewith, by and among the Issuer and Persons listed on
Schedule I
thereto (the “Registration Rights
Agreement”) and the registration rights with respect to the shares of
Warrant Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant by any subsequent
Holder may only be assigned in accordance with the terms and provisions of the
Registrations Rights Agreement.
