LAWS.

                  THIS CERTIFIES THAT ___________  (hereinafter sometimes called

         1. The rights  represented by this Warrant shall be exercised,  subject
to  adjustment  in  accordance  with Section 6 of this  Warrant  (the  "Exercise
Price"),  during the period commencing on the date written above and ending five
years  thereafter (the "Exercise  Period"),  at a purchase price of $_______ per

time within the Exercise Period above specified, in whole or in part, by (i) the

<PAGE>

surrender of this Warrant  (with the  purchase  form at the end hereof  properly
executed) at the principal executive office of the Company, netcruise.com, inc.,
2401  Morris  Avenue,  Union,  NJ 07083 (or such  other  office or agency of the
Company as it may designate by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of
the  Holder  appearing  on the books of the  Company);  and (ii)  payment to the
Company of the Exercise  Price then in effect for the number of shares of Common
Stock  specified in the  above-mentioned  purchase form together with applicable
stock transfer taxes, if any in the form of a certified  check,  cashier's check
or money order. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised, in whole or
in part to the extent  specified,  immediately prior to the close of business on
the date this Warrant is surrendered  and payment is made in accordance with the
foregoing  provisions of this Section 2, and the person or persons in whose name
or names the certificates for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon such
exercise  shall  become the holder or holders of record of such shares of Common
Stock at that time and date. The certificate or  certificates  for the shares of
Common Stock so purchased  shall be delivered to such person or persons within a
reasonable  time, not exceeding  thirty (30) days, after this Warrant shall have
been exercised.

         3. Neither this  Warrant nor the shares of Common Stock  issuable  upon
exercise  hereof  have  been  registered  under  the Act  nor  under  any  state
securities law and shall not be transferred,  sold,  assigned or hypothecated in
violation  thereof.  If permitted by the  foregoing,  any such  transfer,  sale,
assignment or hypothecation  shall be effected by the Holder  surrendering  this
Warrant for  cancellation at the office of the Company  referred to in Section 2
hereof, accompanied by an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company and its
counsel,  stating  that such  transferee  is a permitted  transferee  under this
Section  3 and  that  such  transfer  does  not  violate  the Act or such  state
securities laws.

         4. The Company  covenants  and agrees  that all shares of Common  Stock
which may be issued upon exercise of this Warrant will,  upon issuance,  be duly
and validly issued,  fully paid and nonassessable and no personal liability will
attach to the holder  thereof.  The Company  further  covenants  and agrees that
during the periods within which this Warrant may be exercised,  the Company will
at all times have  authorized and reserved a sufficient  number of shares of its
Common Stock to provide for the exercise of this Warrant.

         5.  The Warrant shall not entitle the Holder to any rights, including,
without limitation, voting rights, as a stockholder of the Company.

         6. The Exercise  Price in effect at any time and the number and kind of
securities  purchasable  upon the exercise of this  Warrant  shall be subject to
adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events as follows:

<PAGE>

                  a. If 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 effective date or record date, as the case may be, for
such  sale,   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.

                  b.  Whenever the Exercise  Price payable upon exercise of each
Warrant is adjusted  pursuant  to Section  6.a.  above,  the number of shares of
Common Stock  purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant shall  simultaneously be
adjusted by multiplying the number of shares of Common Stock initially  issuable
upon exercise of this Warrant by the Exercise Price in effect on the date hereof
and dividing the product so obtained by the Exercise Price, as adjusted.

                  c. Notwithstanding any adjustment in the Exercise Price or the
number or kind of shares of Common Stock  purchasable  upon the exercise of this
Warrant, certificates for Warrants issued prior or subsequent to such adjustment
may  continue  to express the same price and number and kind of shares of Common
Stock as are initially issuable pursuant to this Warrant.

         2.           This Agreement shall be governed by and in accordance with
the laws of the State of New Jersey.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, netcruise.com, inc., has caused this Warrant to
be signed by its duly authorized officer and is to be dated April 1, 2000.

Mr. Lawrence Burk
netcruise.com, inc.
2401 Morris Avenue
Union, NJ 07083
Via fax: 908-810-8769

Dear Larry,

Thank you for your  letter  of March 16,  2000.  We very  much look  forward  to
becoming an integral part of your marketing team.

We recognize your need to conserve cash during this start-up phase,  but we must
balance our need for operating capital as well. Therefore,  as we discussed,  we
will accept the stock proposal as outlined and have modified its cash component.

Please note the following:

Stock Arrangement: The equity component of the compensation package will consist
of the  following  warrants to  purchase  restricted  shares of common  stock of
netcruise.com, inc. to be earned per month for the initial 12 months of services
provided by Wordsmith  Communications  Group,  Inc.: a warrant to purchase  2500
shares at $4.00 per share; a warrant to purchase 2500 shares at $6.60 per share;
and a warrant to purchase 2500 shares at $10.00 share, up to a maximum of 30,000
shares at each  exercise  price for the  entire  initial 12 months  period.  The
Warrants  do  not  have  a  cashless  exercise  provision,  however  the  shares
underlying the warrants will be registered by netcruise.com,  Inc. on a Form S-8
to be filed with the Securities  and Exchange  Commission no later than July 31,
2000.  Upon  termination  of  employment  only those  warrants  earned up to the
effective date of  termination  will be due to Wordsmith  Communications  Group,
Inc.

Retainer: The monthly fee to retain Wordsmith  Communications will be $6,000.00,
which is less than half of the  $12,500.00  fee  proposed  on  February  24. The
retainer would be payable in advance every three months  ($18,000),  which still
provides  considerable  marketing support for a small cash outlay. This retainer
includes  all  creative  concept  development,   copywriting,   copyediting  and
proofreading  services,  as well as project management services for all projects
in which  Wordsmith  is  involved.  Specific  expenses  such as graphic  design,
printing,  mailing,  postage,  original or stock  photographic and out-of-pocket
(messenger,  overnight, travel, etc.) are not included in the retainer and would
be billed separately as additional expenses.

In  addition  to our  agency  activities,  either  Doug  Idleman  or I would  be
available for marketing team meetings on an average of once a week. The workflow
will be managed according to the following suggested activities.  This list will
be adjusted and amended as we move forward:

 to design company  spokespersons prior to media interviews and inquiries.
Respond, as appropriate, to media inquiries regarding netcruise.com and its

         experience of the Wordsmith team, headed jointly by Doug and me. We can
         begin support immediately.

         company.  If you have any questions or require additional  information,
