      This is to certify that, FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, XRoads Solutions Group, LLC (“XRoads”),
is entitled to purchase, subject to the terms set forth below, from ClearPoint
Business Resources, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
during the period commencing on May 14, 2009 and ending at 5:00 P.M. (E.S.T.) on
April 30, 2011 (the “Exercise
Period”), an aggregate of Seventy-Five Thousand (75,000) fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Company Common Stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the
“Common

subject to adjustment, from time to time, as provided below.  The
shares of Common Stock deliverable upon such exercise are hereinafter sometimes
referred to as the “Warrant
Shares”.  This Warrant is herein called the “Warrant”.

      

      Section 1. Exercise

Period shall fall on a Saturday, Sunday or United States federally recognized

Warrant.

      

      a. Manner of
Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised by XRoads, in whole or
in part, at any time and from time to time during the Exercise Period, by (i)
the surrender of this Warrant to the Company, with the Notice of Exercise
attached hereto as Exhibit

Exercise”) duly completed and executed on behalf of XRoads, at the
principal office of the Company or such other office or agency of the Company as
it may designate by notice in writing to XRoads (the “Principal

Price for the number of Warrant Shares specified in the Notice of Exercise in
the manner specified in Section 2(c).

      

      b. Issuance of Warrant
Shares.  Such Warrant Shares shall be deemed to be issued to
XRoads as the record holder of such Warrant Shares as of the close of business
on the date on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered and payment shall
have been made for the Warrant Shares as aforesaid.  As promptly as
practicable thereafter, the Company shall deliver to XRoads a stock
certificate(s) for the Warrant Shares specified in the Notice of
Exercise.  If this Warrant shall have been exercised only in part, the
Company shall, at the time of delivery of the stock certificate(s), also deliver
to XRoads, at the Company’s expense, a new Warrant evidencing the right to
purchase the remaining number of Warrant Shares, which new Warrant shall in all
other respects be identical to this Warrant.

      Section 3. Adjustment to Exercise Price
and Warrant Shares.  The Exercise Price in effect from time to
time and the number of Warrant Shares shall be subject to adjustment in certain
cases as set forth in this Section 3:

      

      a. Stock
Split.  If, at any time after the date hereof, the number of
shares of the Company’s capital stock outstanding is increased by a stock
dividend or by a subdivision or split-up of shares, then, following the record
date for the determination of holders of capital stock entitled to receive such
stock dividend, subdivision or split-up, the Exercise Price shall be
appropriately decreased and the aggregate number of Warrant Shares shall be
increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares.  The
foregoing provisions shall similarly apply to successive stock dividends,
subdivisions or split-ups.

      

      b. Reverse
Stock-Split.  If, at any time after the date hereof, the number
of shares of capital stock outstanding is decreased by a combination or
reverse-split of the outstanding shares, then, following the record date for
such combination or reverse-split, the Exercise Price shall be appropriately
increased and the aggregate number of Warrant Shares shall be decreased in
proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares.  The foregoing
provisions shall similarly apply to successive combinations or
reverse-splits.

      

      c. Notice of
Adjustment.  In each case of an adjustment or readjustment of
the Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares pursuant to this Section 3, the
Company shall, at its expense, promptly furnish to XRoads a certificate prepared
and signed by the Treasurer or Chief Financial Officer of the Company, setting
forth (i) such adjustment or readjustment, (ii) the Exercise Price and number of
Warrant Shares in effect following such adjustment or readjustment (including
the amount, if any, of other securities and property that at the time would be
received upon the exercise of this Warrant), and (iii) the facts, set forth in
reasonable detail, upon which such adjustment or readjustment is
based.

      

      Section 4. Issuance of New
Warrant.  Upon receipt by the Company of (a) evidence
reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of
this Warrant, and (b) (i) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an
indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Company
or (ii) in the case of mutilation, this Warrant, the Company, at its expense,
shall execute and deliver, in lieu of this Warrant, a new Warrant of like tenor
and amount.

Warranties of the Company.  The Company represents and warrants
to XRoads that all shares of Common Stock which may be issued upon the exercise
of this Warrant will, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of this
Warrant, be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

Company.  The Company covenants and agrees that it shall take
all such action as may be required to assure that the Company shall at all times

Rights.  XRoads shall not be entitled to vote or receive
dividends or be deemed the holder of the Warrant Shares or any other securities
of the Company that may at any time be issuable upon the exercise hereof for any
purpose, nor shall anything contained herein be construed to confer upon XRoads,
as such, any of the rights of a stockholder of the Company or any right to vote

stockholders of the Company at any meeting thereof, or to give or withhold
consent to any corporate action (whether upon any recapitalization, issuance or

      recover residual heat generated by Party A’s existing 54 submerged arc
      furnaces (26 ferrosilicon furnaces of 25,000 KVA each, 22 ferrosilicon
      furnaces of 12,500 KVA each, and 6 calcium carbide furnaces of 25,000 KVA
      each, with total capacity of 1,075,000 KVA) and to construct residual heat
      power generation stations or steam recovery stations. The capacity upon
      completion is expected to be 70 MW electricity and/or 30tons/hour of
      steam.

      technical plan for the Projects is detailed in another document which is
      an appendix to this agreement (“Technical Appendix”).  This
      technical plan shall list Party A’s existing 54 submerged arc furnaces,

      save energy, reduce emission of carbon dioxide, protect atmospheric
      environment, lower production costs, and enable both Parties to achieve
      good economic benefits from construction of the Projects and operation of
      the Stations. It is targeted to reduce by 10% the quantity of electricity
      to be purchased by Party A from external sources and to increase the
      production of steam and therefore reduce the investment required for
      constructing coal-fired boilers.
