          THIS CERTIFIES THAT, in consideration of $100.00 duly paid by or on
behalf of Ferris, Baker Watts, Incorporated ("HOLDER"), as registered owner

warrants ("WARRANT(S)") expiring five years from the effective date

pursuant to which Units are offered for sale to the public ("OFFERING"). Each
Warrant is the same as the warrants included in the Units being registered
for sale to the public by way of the Registration Statement ("PUBLIC
WARRANTS"), except that the Warrants shall have an exercise price of $6.25
per whole share, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 4 of the
Warrant Agreement and shall be entitled to Cashless Exercise Rights as
provided in Section 3.4 therof. If the Expiration Date is a day on which
banking institutions are authorized by law to close, then this Purchase
Option may be exercised on the next succeeding day which is not such a day in
accordance with the terms herein. During the period ending on the Expiration
Date, the Company agrees not to take any action that would terminate the
Purchase Option. This Purchase Option is initially exercisable at $7.50 per
Unit so purchased; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any of the
events specified in Section 6 hereof, the rights granted by this Purchase
Option, including the exercise price per Unit and the number of Units (and
shares of Common Stock and Warrants) to be received upon such exercise, shall
be adjusted as therein specified. The term "EXERCISE PRICE" shall mean the
initial exercise price or the adjusted exercise price, depending on the
context.

payment of the Exercise Price for the Units being purchased payable in cash or
by certified check or official bank check. If the subscription rights
represented hereby shall not be exercised at or before 5:00 p.m., New York City

without further force or effect, and all rights represented hereby shall cease
and expire.

Purchase Option shall bear a legend as follows unless such securities have been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("ACT"):

               "The securities represented by this certificate have not been
               registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("ACT")
               or applicable state law. The securities may not be offered for
               sale, sold or otherwise transferred except pursuant to an
               effective registration statement under the Act, or pursuant to an
               exemption from registration under the Act and applicable state
               law."

3.   TRANSFER.

     3.1  GENERAL RESTRICTIONS. The registered Holder of this Purchase Option,
by its acceptance hereof, agrees that it will not sell, transfer, assign, pledge

Effective Date to anyone other than (i) FBW or an underwriter or a selected
dealer in connection with the Offering, or (ii) a bona fide officer or partner
of FBW or of any such underwriter or selected dealer. On and after the first
anniversary of the Effective Date, transfers to others may be made subject to
compliance with or exemptions from applicable securities laws. In order to make
any permitted assignment, the Holder must deliver to the Company the assignment
form attached hereto as EXHIBIT B duly executed and completed, together with the
Purchase Option and payment of all transfer taxes, if any, payable in connection
therewith. The Company shall

within five business days transfer this Purchase Option on the books of the
Company and shall execute and deliver a new Purchase Option or Purchase Options
of like tenor to the appropriate assignee(s) expressly evidencing the right to
purchase the aggregate number of Units purchasable hereunder or such portion of
such number as shall be contemplated by any such assignment.

     3.2  RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY THE ACT. The securities evidenced by this
Purchase Option shall not be transferred unless and until (i) the Company has
received the opinion of counsel for the Holder that the securities may be
transferred pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act and
applicable state securities laws, the availability of which is established to
the reasonable satisfaction of the Company (the Company hereby agreeing that the
opinion of Davis, Malm & D'Agostine, P.C. shall be deemed satisfactory evidence
of the availability of an exemption), or (ii) a registration statement or a
post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement relating to such
securities has been filed by the Company and declared effective by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") and compliance with
applicable state securities law has been established.

In the event of the exercise or assignment hereof in part only, upon surrender
of this Purchase Option for cancellation, together with the duly executed
exercise or assignment form and funds sufficient to pay any Exercise Price
and/or transfer tax, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Holder
without charge a new Purchase Option of like tenor to this Purchase Option in
the name of the Holder evidencing the right of the Holder to purchase the number
of Units purchasable hereunder as to which this Purchase Option has not been
exercised or assigned.

     4.2  LOST CERTIFICATE. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory
to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Purchase Option and
of reasonably satisfactory indemnification or the posting of a bond, the Company
shall execute and deliver a new Purchase Option of like tenor and date. Any such
new Purchase Option executed and delivered as a result of such loss, theft,
mutilation or destruction shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation
on the part of the Company.

5.   INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.

6.   ADJUSTMENTS.

     6.1  ADJUSTMENTS TO EXERCISE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SECURITIES. The Exercise
Price and the number of Units underlying the Purchase Option shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth:

          6.1.1     STOCK DIVIDENDS - SPLIT-UPS. If after the date hereof, and
subject to the provisions of Section 6.4 below, the number of outstanding shares
of Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Common
Stock or by a split-up of shares of Common Stock or other similar event, then,
on the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock underlying
each of the Units purchasable hereunder shall be increased in proportion to such
increase in outstanding shares. In such case, the number of shares of Common
Stock, and the exercise price applicable thereto, underlying the Warrants
underlying each of the Units purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted in
accordance with the terms of the Warrants. For example, if the Company declares
a two-for-one stock dividend and at the time of such dividend this Purchase
Option is for the purchase of one Unit at $7.50 per whole Unit (each Warrant
underlying the Units is exercisable for $6.25 per share), upon effectiveness of
the dividend, this Purchase Option will be adjusted to allow for the purchase of
one Unit at $7.50 per Unit, each Unit entitling the holder to receive two shares
of Common Stock and four Warrants (each Warrant exercisable for $3.125 per
share).

          6.1.2     AGGREGATION OF SHARES. If after the date hereof, and subject
to the provisions of Section 6.4, the number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination or reclassification of shares
of Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date thereof, the
number of shares of Common Stock underlying each of the Units purchasable
hereunder shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding
shares. In such case, the number of shares of Common Stock, and the exercise
price

                                        3
<Page>

applicable thereto, underlying the Warrants underlying each of the Units
purchasable hereunder shall be adjusted in accordance with the terms of the
Warrants.

          6.1.3     REPLACEMENT OF SECURITIES UPON REORGANIZATION, ETC. In case
of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Common
Stock other than a change covered by Section 6.1.1 or 6.1.2 hereof or that
solely affects the par value of such shares of Common Stock, or in the case of
any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation
(other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the continuing
corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or
conveyance to another corporation or entity of the property of the Company as an
entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is
dissolved, the Holder of this Purchase Option shall have the right thereafter
(until the expiration of the right of exercise of this Purchase Option) to
receive upon the exercise hereof, for the same aggregate Exercise Price payable
hereunder immediately prior to such event, the kind and amount of shares of
stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such
reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution
following any such sale or transfer, by a Holder of the number of shares of
Common Stock of the Company obtainable upon exercise of this Purchase Option and
the underlying Warrants immediately prior to such event; and if any
reclassification also results in a change in shares of Common Stock covered by
Section 6.1.1 or 6.1.2, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to Sections
6.1.1, 6.1.2 and this Section 6.1.3. The provisions of this Section 6.1.3 shall
similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, mergers or
consolidations, sales or other transfers.

          6.1.4     CHANGES IN FORM OF PURCHASE OPTION. This form of Purchase
Option need not be changed because of any change pursuant to this Section, and
Purchase Options issued after such change may state the same Exercise Price and
the same number of Units as are stated in the Purchase Options initially issued
pursuant to this Agreement. The acceptance by any Holder of the issuance of new
Purchase Options reflecting a required or permissive change shall not be deemed
to waive any rights to an adjustment occurring after the Commencement Date or
the computation thereof.

     6.2  SUBSTITUTE PURCHASE OPTION. In case of any consolidation of the
Company with, or merger of the Company with, or merger of the Company into,
another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger which does not result
in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock), the
corporation formed by such consolidation or merger shall execute and deliver to
the Holder a supplemental Purchase Option providing that the holder of each
Purchase Option then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the right
thereafter (until the stated expiration of such Purchase Option) to receive,
upon exercise of such Purchase Option, the kind and amount of shares of stock
and other securities and property receivable upon such consolidation or merger,
by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company for which
such Purchase Option might have been exercised immediately prior to such
consolidation, merger, sale or transfer. Such supplemental Purchase Option shall
provide for adjustments which shall be identical to the adjustments provided in
Section 6. The above provision of this Section shall similarly apply to
successive consolidations or mergers.

     6.3  ELIMINATION OF FRACTIONAL INTERESTS. The Company shall not be
required to issue certificates representing fractions of shares of Common Stock
or Warrants upon the exercise of the Purchase Option, nor shall it be required
to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of any fractional interests, it being the
intent of the parties that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by
rounding any fraction up to the nearest whole number of Warrants, shares of
Common Stock or other securities, properties or rights.

7.   RESERVATION AND LISTING. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep
available out of its authorized shares of Common Stock, solely for the purpose
of issuance upon exercise of the Purchase Options or the Warrants underlying the
Purchase Option, such number of shares of Common Stock or other securities,
properties or rights as shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof. The Company
covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of the Purchase Options and payment of
the Exercise Price therefor, all shares of Common Stock and other securities
issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable and not subject to preemptive rights of any stockholder. The
Company further covenants and agrees that upon exercise of the Warrants
underlying the Purchase Options and payment of the respective Warrant exercise
price therefor, all shares of Common Stock and other securities issuable upon
such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable
and not subject to preemptive rights of any stockholder. As long as the Purchase
Options shall be outstanding, the Company

                                        4
<Page>

shall use its best efforts to cause all (i) Units and shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Purchase Options, (iii) Warrants issuable upon
exercise of the Purchase Options and (iv) shares of Common Stock issuable upon
exercise of the Warrants included in the Units issuable upon exercise of the
Purchase Option to be listed (subject to official notice of issuance) on all
securities exchanges (or, if applicable on the Nasdaq National Market, SmallCap
Market, OTC Bulletin Board or any successor trading market) on which the Units,
the Common Stock or the Public Warrants issued to the public in connection
herewith may then be listed and/or quoted.

8.   CERTAIN NOTICE REQUIREMENTS.

     8.1  HOLDER'S RIGHT TO RECEIVE NOTICE. Nothing herein shall be construed
as conferring upon the Holders the right to vote or consent as a stockholder for
the election of directors or any other matter, or as having any rights
whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company. If, however, at any time prior to
the expiration of the Purchase Options and their exercise, any of the events
described in Section 8.2 shall occur, then, in one or more of said events, the
Company shall give written notice of such event at least fifteen days prior to
the date fixed as a record date or the date of closing the transfer books for
the determination of the stockholders entitled to such dividend, distribution,
conversion or exchange of securities or subscription rights, or entitled to vote
on such proposed dissolution, liquidation, winding up or sale. Such notice shall
specify such record date or the date of the closing of the transfer books, as
the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall deliver to
each Holder a copy of each notice given to the other stockholders of the Company
at the same time and in the same manner that such notice is given to the
stockholders.

     8.2  EVENTS REQUIRING NOTICE. The Company shall be required to give the
notice described in this Section 8 upon one or more of the following events: (i)
if the Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares of Common Stock
for the purpose of entitling them to receive a dividend or distribution payable
otherwise than in cash, or a cash dividend or distribution payable otherwise
than out of retained earnings, as indicated by the accounting treatment of such
dividend or distribution on the books of the Company, or (ii) the Company shall
offer to all the holders of its Common Stock any additional shares of capital
stock of the Company or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares
of capital stock of the Company, or any option, right or warrant to subscribe
therefor, or (iii) a dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company
(other than in connection with a consolidation or merger) or a sale of all or
substantially all of its property, assets and business shall be proposed.

     8.3  NOTICE OF CHANGE IN EXERCISE PRICE. The Company shall, promptly after
an event requiring a change in the Exercise Price pursuant to Section 6 hereof,
send notice to the Holders of such event and change ("PRICE NOTICE"). The Price
Notice shall describe the event causing the change and the method of calculating
same and shall be certified as being true and accurate by the Company's
President and Chief Executive Officer.

     8.4  TRANSMITTAL OF NOTICES. All notices, requests, consents and other
communications under this Purchase Option shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been duly made when hand delivered, or mailed by express mail or

to the Company, to the following address or to such other address as the Company
may designate by notice to the Holders:

amend this Purchase Option without the approval of any of the Holders in order
to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision contained herein
that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provisions herein, or to
make any other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising hereunder
that the Company and FBW may deem necessary or desirable and that the Company

                                        5

All other modifications or amendments shall require the written consent of and
be signed by the party against whom enforcement of the modification or amendment
is sought.

     9.2  HEADINGS. The headings contained herein are for the sole purpose of
convenience of reference, and shall not in any way limit or affect the meaning
or interpretation of any of the terms or provisions of this Purchase Option.

     9.3  ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Purchase Option (together with the other
agreements and documents being delivered pursuant to or in connection with this
Purchase Option) constitutes the entire agreement of the parties hereto with
respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings of the parties, oral and written, with respect to the subject
matter hereof.

     9.4  BINDING EFFECT. This Purchase Option shall inure solely to the
benefit of and shall be binding upon, the Holder and the Company and their

Option or any provisions herein contained.

     9.5  GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. This Purchase Option shall
be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, without giving effect to conflict of laws. The Company hereby
agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of, or
relating in any way to this Purchase Option shall be brought and enforced in the

to recover from the other party(ies) all of its reasonable attorneys' fees and
expenses relating to such action or proceeding and/or incurred in connection
with the preparation therefor.

     9.6  WAIVER, ETC. The failure of the Company or the Holder to at any time
enforce any of the provisions of this Purchase Option shall not be deemed or

validity of this Purchase Option or any provision hereof or the right of the
Company or any Holder to thereafter enforce each and every provision of this
Purchase Option. No waiver of any breach, non-compliance or non-fulfillment of
any of the provisions of this Purchase Option shall be effective unless set
forth in a written instrument executed by the party or parties against whom or
which enforcement of such waiver is sought; and no waiver of any such breach,
non-compliance or non- fulfillment shall be construed or deemed to be a waiver
of any other or subsequent breach or non-compliance.

     9.7  EXECUTION IN COUNTERPARTS. This Purchase Option may be executed in
one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate

effective when one or more counterparts has been signed by each of the parties
hereto and delivered to each of the other parties hereto.

     9.8  EXCHANGE AGREEMENT. As a condition of the Holder's receipt and
acceptance of this Purchase Option, Holder agrees that, at any time prior to the
complete exercise of this Purchase Option by Holder, if the Company and FBW
enter into an agreement ("EXCHANGE AGREEMENT") pursuant to which they agree that
all outstanding Purchase Options will be exchanged for securities or cash or a
combination of both, then Holder shall agree to such exchange and become a party
to the Exchange Agreement.

Re: Initial Public Offering
    -----------------------

Gentlemen:

     The undersigned officer and director and stockholder of Harbor Acquisition
Corporation ("COMPANY"), in consideration of Ferris, Baker Watts, Incorporated
("FBW") entering into a letter of intent ("LETTER OF INTENT") to underwrite an
initial public offering of the securities of the Company ("IPO") and embarking
on the IPO process, hereby agrees as follows (certain capitalized terms used
herein are defined in paragraph 11 hereof):
     1.   If the Company solicits approval of its stockholders of a Business
Combination, the undersigned will vote all Insider Shares owned by him in
accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the holders of the IPO Shares.

     2.   The undersigned will escrow his Insider Shares until six months after
the consummation of a Business Combination subject to the terms of a Stock
Escrow Agreement which the Company will enter into with the undersigned and an
escrow agent acceptable to the Company.

     3.   In the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business
Combination within 18 months from the effective date ("EFFECTIVE DATE") of the
registration statement relating to the IPO (or 24 months under the circumstances
described in the prospectus relating to the IPO), the undersigned will take all
reasonable actions within his power to cause the Company to liquidate as soon as
reasonably practicable. The undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title,
interest or claim of any kind ("CLAIM") in or to any distribution of the Trust
Fund (as defined in the Letter of Intent) with respect to his Insider Shares and
waives any Claim the undersigned may have in the future as a result of, or
arising out of, any contracts or agreements with the Company and will not seek
recourse against the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever. The undersigned
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and all loss,
liability, claims, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to,
any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating,
preparing or defending against any litigation, whether pending or threatened, or
any claim whatsoever) which the Company may become subject to as a result of any
claim by any vendor that is owed money by the Company for services rendered or
products sold but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such loss,
liability, claim, damage or expenses does not reduce the amount in the Trust
Fund.

     4.   In order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise
from multiple affiliations, the undersigned agrees to present to the Company for
its consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any
suitable opportunity to acquire an operating business, until the earlier of the
consummation by the Company of a Business Combination, the liquidation of the
Company or until such time as the undersigned ceases to be an officer or
director of the Company, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary obligations the
undersigned might have, including, but not limited to, the undersigned's
obligation to present business opportunities to Solar Cosmetic Labs, Inc. and
Elmet Technologies, Inc.

     5.   The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not
consummate any Business Combination which involves a company which is affiliated
with any of the Insiders unless the

Company obtains an opinion from an independent investment banking firm
reasonably acceptable to FBW that the business combination is fair to the
Company's stockholders from a financial perspective.

     6.   Neither the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned,
or any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive or accept a
finder's fee or any other compensation in the event the undersigned, any member
of the family of the undersigned or any affiliate of the undersigned originates
a Business Combination.

     7.   The undersigned agrees to be Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of the

               offering of securities in any jurisdiction;

("INFORMATION"), purely for the purposes of the Company's IPO (and shall
thereafter hold such information confidential). Neither FBW nor its agents shall
be violating the undersigned's right of privacy in any manner in requesting and
obtaining the Information and the undersigned hereby releases them from
liability for any damage whatsoever in that connection.
