    MDU COMMUNICATIONS INTERNATIONAL, INC.    
    

Expires
July 23, 2008 

	No.: W-143	 	Number of Shares: 193,253
	Date of Issuance: July 23, 2003	 	 

        This
is to certify that, for value received and subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, that Lloyd Berhoff is entitled to
purchase, and MDU Communications International, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("the Company"), promises and agrees to sell and issue, 193,253 shares of Common Stock (hereinafter defined) at a
price of US$0.40 per share ("Exercise Price"). This Warrant shall expire on July 23, 2008. 

        This
Warrant is issued subject to the following terms and conditions: 

        1.    Definitions.    Except as may be otherwise clearly required by the context, the
following terms shall have the following meanings: 

        "Common Stock" means the common stock of the Company, $.01 par value per share. 

        "Company" means MDU Communications International, Inc., a Delaware corporation. 

        "Exercise Price" means the price at which a Warrant Holder may purchase one share of Common Stock (or Securities obtainable in lieu of one
share of Common Stock) upon exercise of Warrants as determined from time to time pursuant to the provisions hereof, which Exercise Price shall be US$0.40 per share. 

        "Securities" means the Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. 

        "Warrant Holder" means the person named in the initial paragraph of this certificate or any successor who is a record holder of Warrants. 

        "Warrants" means the warrants evidenced by this certificate or by any certificate obtained upon partial exercise of Warrants. 

        2.    Exercise of Warrants.    The Warrant Holder may exercise this Warrant, in whole or in
part, by the surrender of this Warrant (with the exercise form attached hereto duly executed) at the principal office of the Company, together with the payment to the Company of an amount of
consideration equal to the Exercise Price in effect on the date of such exercise multiplied by the number of shares of 

Common
Stock with respect to which this Warrant is then being exercised, payable by certified or official bank check or by wire transfer to an account designated by the Company. If fewer than all the
Warrants evidenced by this certificate are exercised, the Company will, upon such exercise, execute and deliver to the Warrant Holder a new certificate (dated the date hereof), in form and tenor
substantially similar to this certificate, evidencing the Warrants not exercised. 

        3.    Adjustments in Certain Events.    The number, class and Exercise Price of Securities for
which this certificate may be exercised are subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows: 

        (a)    Stock Dividends, Splits, Etc.    If the outstanding shares of the Company's Common Stock are divided into a
greater number of shares or a dividend in stock is paid on the Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock which may be purchased under this certificate shall be proportionately increased and
the Exercise Price proportionately decreased; and, conversely, if the outstanding shares of Common Stock are combined into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common
Stock which may be purchased under this certificate shall be proportionately reduced and the Exercise Price proportionately increased. The increases and reductions provided for in this
Section 3(a) shall be made with the intent and, as nearly as practicable, the effect that neither the percentage of the total equity of the Company obtainable on exercise of the Warrants nor
the aggregate Exercise Price for such percentage upon such exercise shall be affected by any event described in this Section 3(a). 

        (b)    Mergers, Consolidations, Etc.    In case of any change in the Common Stock of the Company through merger,
consolidation, reclassification, reorganization, partial or complete liquidation, transfer of assets or other change in the capital structure of the Company (not including the issuance of additional
shares of Common Stock by the Company other than by stock split or stock dividend) (the "Capital Reorganization"), then, as a condition of such Capital Reorganization, lawful and adequate provision
shall be made so that the holder of this certificate will have the right thereafter to receive upon the exercise of the Warrants the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property
to which it would have been entitled if, immediately prior to such Capital Reorganization, it had held the number of shares of Common Stock obtainable upon the exercise of the Warrants. In any such
case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions set forth herein with respect to the rights and interest thereafter of the Warrant Holder, to the end that the
provisions set forth herein shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be possible, in relation to any shares
of stock or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants. The Company will not permit any Capital Reorganization described in this Section 3(b) to occur unless the
issuer of the shares of stock or other securities to be received by the holder of this certificate, if not the Company, agrees to be bound by and comply with the provisions of this certificate. 

        (c)    Determination and Notice of Exercise Price.    When any adjustment is required to be made in the number of
shares of Common Stock, Exercise Price, other securities, or the property purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants as provided in this Section 3, the Company shall promptly determine the new
Exercise Price, number of such shares or other securities or property purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants and (i) prepare and retain on file a statement describing in reasonable
detail the method used in arriving at the new Exercise Price or number of such shares or other securities or property purchasable upon exercise of the Warrants and (ii) cause a copy of such
statement to be mailed to the Warrant Holder within sixty (60) days after the date when the event giving rise to the adjustment occurred. 

        (d)    No Fractional Shares.    No fractional shares of Common Stock or other Securities will be issued in connection
with the exercise of any Warrants, but the Company shall pay, in lieu of fractional shares, a cash payment therefore on the basis of the mean between the bid and asked prices in the
over-the-counter market or the closing price on a national securities exchange on the day immediately prior to exercise. 

        (e)    Issuance of Other Securities, Etc.    If other securities of the Company or securities of any subsidiary of the
Company are distributed pro rata to holders of any or all of the Company's Common Stock, such number of securities shall be distributed to the Warrant Holder upon exercise of his rights hereunder as
such Warrant Holder or assignee would have been entitled to if this Warrant had been exercised prior to such distribution. The provisions with respect to adjustment of the Company's Common Stock
provided in this Section 3 shall also apply to such other securities and securities of any subsidiary to which the Warrant Holder or his assignee shall be entitled under this
Section 3(e). 

        4.    Reservation of Shares.    The Company agrees that the number of shares of Common Stock
or other Securities sufficient to provide for the exercise of the Warrants upon the basis set forth above shall at all times during the term of the Warrants be reserved for exercise. 

        5.    Validity of Securities.    All Securities delivered upon the exercise of the Warrants
shall be duly and validly issued in accordance with their terms, and the Company will pay all documentary and transfer taxes, if any, in respect of the original issuance thereof upon exercise of the
Warrants. 

        6.    Investment Representation.    The Warrant Holder represents and warrants that it has
acquired the Warrants, and will acquire the Common Stock or other Securities, if any, upon exercise of the Warrants for his, her or its own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view to
resale or other distribution thereof, nor with the intention of selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of all or any part of such shares (or underlying securities) for any particular event or
circumstance, except for selling, transferring or disposing of said shares in full compliance with all applicable provisions of the Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Rules and
Regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder. The undersigned further understands and agrees that such shares may be sold only if they are subsequently registered under
the Act or an exemption from such registration is available, and that any routine sales or securities made in reliance upon Rule 144 can be made only after the holding period specified in that
Rule, and only in the amounts set forth in and pursuant to the other terms and conditions of that Rule. The undersigned understands that a stop order will be placed on the books and records of the
transfer agent regarding the shares. An appropriate legend to the foregoing effect and of the type commonly placed on certificates evidencing privately placed securities may be placed on all
certificates evidencing Securities. 

        7.    No Rights as a Shareholder.    Except as otherwise provided herein, the Warrant Holder
shall not, by virtue of ownership of Warrants, be entitled to any rights of a shareholder of the Company but shall, upon written request to the Company, be entitled to receive such quarterly or annual
reports as the Company by mail shall distribute to its shareholders. 

        8.    Registration Rights.    If the Company shall determine to proceed with the preparation
and filing of a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, in connection with the proposed offer and sale of any of its securities by it or any of its security holders (other
than a registration statement on Form S-4, S-8 or other limited purpose form), then the Company will give written notice of its determination to the Warrant Holder. Upon
the written request from the Warrant Holder, the Company will cause to be registered a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock to effect the full exercise of this Warrant in such registration
statement. The Company covenants and agrees to keep the registration statement effective and file any post-effective amendments or prospectus supplements required to maintain the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement during the term of this Warrant and for a period of ninety (90) days thereafter. 

        9.    Notices.    Any notices required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing

[Exhibit 4.19]  

        THIS WARRANT AND ANY SHARES OF COMMON STOCK ISSUABLE UPON ITS EXERCISE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS
AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAW, AND NEITHER SUCH SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE
REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS WHICH, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE HOLDER, WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE
REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO COUNSEL FOR THIS COMPANY, IS AVAILABLE.

 
 

WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK    
    
    OF    
    
    MDU COMMUNICATIONS INTERNATIONAL, INC.    
    

W-153  

        This is to Certify That, FOR VALUE RECEIVED, JRJ Capital or assigns ("Holder"), is entitled to purchase, subject
to the provisions of this Warrant, from MDU Communications International, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Company"), 40,000 fully paid, validly issued and nonassessable shares of common stock,
par value $.001 per share, of the Company ("Common Stock"), at a purchase price equal to $0.65 per share at any time or from time to time commencing on the date hereof until October 1, 2006.
The number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon the exercise of this Warrant and the price to be paid for each share of Common Stock may be adjusted from time to time as hereinafter set
forth. The shares of Common Stock deliverable upon such exercise, and as adjusted from time to time, are hereinafter sometimes referred to as "Warrant Shares" and the exercise price of a share of
Common Stock in effect at any time and as adjusted from time to time is hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Exercise Price." 

        (a)    EXERCISE OF WARRANT; CANCELLATION OF WARRANT.    This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time
or from time to time commencing on the date hereof and until October 1, 2006 (the "Exercise Period"), provided, however, that if either such day is a day on which banking institutions in the
State of New York are authorized by law to close, then on the next succeeding day which shall not be such a day. This Warrant may be exercised by presentation and surrender hereof to the Company at
its principal office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, with the Purchase Form annexed hereto duly executed and accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price for the number of
Warrant Shares specified in such form. As soon as practicable after each such exercise of this Warrant, but not later than seven days from the date of such exercise, the Company shall issue and
deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates for the Warrant Shares issuable upon such exercise, registered in the name of the Holder or its designee. If this Warrant should be exercised in
part only, the Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, execute and deliver a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder thereof to purchase the balance of the Warrant
Shares purchasable thereunder. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant at its office, or by the stock transfer agent of the Company at its office, in proper form for exercise, the Holder shall be
deemed to be the holder of record of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the stock transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates
representing such shares of Common Stock shall not then be physically delivered to the Holder. 

        (b)    RESERVATION OF SHARES.    The Company shall at all times reserve for issuance and/or delivery upon exercise of
this Warrant such number of shares of Common Stock as shall be required for issuance and delivery upon exercise of the Warrants. 

        (c)    FRACTIONAL SHARES.    No fractional shares or script representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the
exercise of this Warrant. With respect to any fraction of a share called for upon any 

exercise
hereof, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to such fraction multiplied by the current market value of a share, determined as follows: 

        (1)   If
the Common Stock is listed on a national securities exchange or admitted to unlisted trading privileges on such exchange or listed for trading on the Nasdaq National
Market, the current market value shall be the last reported sale price of the Common Stock on such exchange or market on the last business day prior to the date of exercise of this Warrant or if no
such sale is made on such day, the average closing bid and asked prices for such day on such exchange or market; or 

        (2)   If
the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges, but is traded on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market, the current market value shall be the
average of the closing bid and asked prices for such day on such market and if the Common Stock is not so traded, the current market value shall be the mean of the last reported bid and asked prices
reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. on the last business day prior to the date of the exercise of this Warrant; or 

        (3)   If
the Common Stock is not so listed or admitted to unlisted trading privileges and bid and asked prices are not so reported, the current market value shall be an
amount, not less than book value thereof as at the end of the most recent fiscal year of the Company ending prior to the date of the exercise of the Warrant, determined in such reasonable manner as
may be prescribed by the Board of Directors of the Company. 

        (d)    EXCHANGE, TRANSFER, ASSIGNMENT OR LOSS OF WARRANT.    This Warrant is exchangeable, without expense, at the
option of the Holder, upon presentation and surrender hereof to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, for other warrants of different denominations entitling the holder
thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder. Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its principal office or at the office of its
stock transfer agent, if any, with the Assignment Form annexed hereto duly executed and funds sufficient to pay any transfer tax, the Company shall, without charge, execute and deliver a new Warrant
in the name of the assignee named in such instrument of assignment and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other warrants which carry the same rights
upon presentation hereof at the principal office of the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new
Warrants are to be issued and signed by the Holder hereof. The term "Warrant" as used herein includes any Warrants into which this Warrant may be divided or exchanged. 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) of reasonably satisfactory indemnification, and upon
surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, if mutilated, the Company will execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date. Any such new Warrant executed and delivered shall constitute an
additional contractual obligation on the part of the Company, whether or not this Warrant so lost, stolen, destroyed, or mutilated shall be at any time enforceable by anyone. 

        (e)    RIGHTS OF THE HOLDER.    The Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any rights of a shareholder in
the Company, either at law or equity, and the rights of the Holder are limited to those expressed in the Warrant and are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein. 

        (f)    ANTI-DILUTION PROVISIONS.    The Exercise Price in effect at any time and the number and kind of
securities purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows: 

        (1)   In
case the Company shall (i) declare a dividend or make a distribution on its outstanding shares of Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide
or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a greater number of shares, or (iii) combine or reclassify its outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, the
Exercise Price in effect at the time of the record date for such dividend or distribution or of the effective date of such 

subdivision,
combination or reclassification shall be adjusted so that it shall equal the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price by a fraction, the denominator of which shall be the number
of shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to such action, and the numerator of which shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such action. Such
adjustment shall be made successively whenever any event listed above shall occur. 

        (2)   Whenever
the Exercise Price is adjusted, as herein provided, the Company shall promptly but no later than 10 days after such adjustment, cause a notice setting
forth the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number of shares issuable upon exercise of each Warrant, and, if requested, information describing the transactions giving rise to such adjustments, to
be mailed to the Holders at their last addresses appearing in the Warrant Register, and shall cause a certified copy thereof to be mailed to its transfer agent, if any. The Company may retain a firm
of independent certified public accountants selected by the Board of Directors (who may be the regular accountants employed by the Company) to make any computation required by this Section (f),
and a certificate signed by such firm shall be conclusive evidence of the correctness of such adjustment. 

        (3)   Irrespective
of any adjustments in the Exercise Price or the number or kind of shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant, Warrants theretofore or thereafter
issued may continue to express the same price and number and kind of shares as are stated in the similar Warrants initially issuable pursuant to this Agreement. 

        (g)    OFFICER'S CERTIFICATE.    Whenever the Exercise Price shall be adjusted as required by the provisions of the
foregoing Section, the Company shall forthwith file in the custody of its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary at its principal office and with its stock transfer agent, if any, an officer's
certificate showing the adjusted Exercise Price and Warrant Shares determined as herein provided, setting forth in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment, including a statement of the
number of additional shares of Common Stock, if any, and such other facts as shall be necessary to show the reason for and the manner of computing such adjustment. Each such officer's certificate
shall be made available at all reasonable times for inspection by the Holder or any holder of a Warrant executed and delivered pursuant to Section (a) and the Company shall, forthwith after
each such adjustment, mail a copy by certified mail of such certificate to the Holder or any such holder. 

        (h)    NOTICES TO WARRANT HOLDERS.    So long as this Warrant shall be outstanding, (i) if the Company shall
pay any dividend or make any distribution upon the Common Stock or (ii) if the Company shall offer to the holders of Common Stock for subscription or purchase by them any share of any class or
any other rights or (iii) if any capital reorganization of the Company, reclassification of
the capital stock of the Company, consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, sale, lease or transfer of all or substantially all of the property and assets of the Company
to another corporation, or voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company shall be effected, then in any such case, the Company shall cause to be mailed by certified
mail to the Holder, at least fifteen days prior the date specified in (x) or (y) below, as the case may be, a notice containing a brief description of the proposed action and stating the
date on which (x) a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or rights, or (y) such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance,
lease, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is to take place and the date, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of Common Stock or other securities shall receive cash or other property
deliverable upon such reclassification, reorganization, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. 

        (i)    RECLASSIFICATION, REORGANIZATION OR MERGER.    In case of any reclassification, capital reorganization or other
change of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, or in case of any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a merger with a subsidiary in which
merger the Company is the continuing corporation and which does not result in any reclassification, capital reorganization or other change of outstanding shares of Common Stock of the class issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant) or in case of any sale, lease or conveyance to another corporation of the property of the Company as an entirety, the 

Company
shall, as a condition precedent to such transaction, cause effective provisions to be made so that the Holder shall have the right thereafter by exercising this Warrant at any time prior to
the expiration of the Warrant, to purchase the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities and property receivable upon such reclassification, capital reorganization and other change,
consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock which might have been purchased upon exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification,
change, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance. Any such provision shall include provision for adjustments which shall be as nearly equivalent as may be practicable to the adjustments provided for
in this Warrant. The foregoing provisions of this Section (i) shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, capital reorganizations and changes of shares of Common Stock and to
successive consolidations, mergers, sales or conveyances. In the event that in connection with any such capital reorganization or reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale or conveyance,
additional shares of Common Stock shall be issued in exchange, conversion, substitution or payment, in whole or in part, for a security of the Company other than Common Stock, any such issue shall be
treated as an issue of Common Stock covered by the provisions of Subsection (1) of Section (f) hereof.
