THE TRANSFER OF THIS WARRANT IS RESTRICTED AS DESCRIBED HEREIN. CLEAN WATER TECHNOLOGIES, INC. DBA SHEERVISION,INC. WARRANTS FOR THE PURCHASE OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK, PAR VALUE $0.001 PER SHARE NO. THIS CERTIFIES that, for consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and other value received, _______________________, a ____________________ (the "HOLDER") is entitled to subscribe for, and purchase from, CLEAN WATER TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation dba SheerVision, Inc. (the "COMPANY"), upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, at any time or from time to time on or after ________ (the "INITIAL EXERCISE Date") until 5:00 P.M. New York City local time on the third anniversary of the Initial Exercise Date (the "EXERCISE PERIOD"), up to an aggregate of ______________ shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "COMMON STOCK"), of the Company. This Warrant is initially exercisable at $1.00 per share; provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 5 hereof, the rights granted by this Warrant, including the exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon such exercise, shall be adjusted as therein specified. The term "EXERCISE PRICE" shall mean, depending on the context, the initial exercise price (as set forth above) or the adjusted exercise price per share. As used herein, the term "THIS WARRANT" shall mean and include this Warrant and any Warrant or Warrants hereafter issued as a consequence of the exercise or transfer of this Warrant in whole or in part. Each share of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise hereof shall be hereinafter referred to as a "WARRANT SHARE". 1. (a) Subject to the terms of this Warrant, this Warrant may be exercised at any time in whole and from time to time in part, at the option of the Holder, on or after the Effective Time and on or prior to the end of the Exercise Period. This Warrant shall initially be exercisable in whole or in part for an aggregate of ________fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock for an exercise price per share equal to the Exercise Price, by delivery to the Company at its office at 4030 Palos Verdes North, Suite 104, Rolling Hills Estates, California 90274, or at such other place as is designated in writing by the Company, of: (i) a completed Election to Purchase, in the form set forth in EXHIBIT I, executed by the Holder exercising all or part of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant; (ii) this Warrant; (iii) if this Warrant is not registered in the name of the initial registered Holder, an assignment in the form set forth in EXHIBIT II hereto evidencing the assignment of this Warrant to the current Holder; and (iv) subject to the Holder's right to elect to exercise this Warrant on a cashless basis pursuant to Section 1(b) hereof, payment of an amount equal to the product of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being purchased upon such exercise in the form of, at the Holder's option, (A) a certified or bank cashier's check payable to the Company, or (B) a wire transfer of funds to an account designated by the Company. (b) The Holder may, at its option, elect to exercise this Warrant, in whole or in part and at any time or from time to time, on a cashless basis, by complying with clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 1(a), and canceling a portion of this Warrant in payment of the Exercise Price payable in respect of the number of Warrant Shares purchased upon such exercise. In the event of an exercise pursuant to this Section 1(b), the number of Warrant Shares issued to the Holder shall be determined according to the following formula: X = Y(A-B) ----- A Where: X = the number of Warrant Shares that shall be issued to the Holder; - 2 - Y = the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is being exercised (which shall include both the number of Warrant Shares issued to the Holder and the number of Warrant Shares subject to the portion of the Warrant being cancelled in payment of the Exercise Price); A = the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of one Warrant Share; and B = the Exercise Price then in effect. The "FAIR MARKET VALUE" per Warrant Share shall be determined in accordance with Section 1(c) hereof. (c) As used herein: (i) "FAIR MARKET VALUE" of a security shall mean, on any given day, shall mean the average of the closing prices of such security's sales on all securities exchanges on which such security may at the time be listed on such day, or, if there has been no sales on any such exchange on such day, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on all such exchanges at the end of such day, or, if on such day such security is not so listed, the average of the representative bid and asked prices quoted on the over-the-counter bulletin board (the "OTCBB") as of 4:00 P.M., New York time, or, if on such day such security is not quoted on the OTCBB, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on such day in the domestic over-the-counter market as reported by the PinkSheet, LLC, or any similar successor organization. If at any time such security is not listed on any securities exchange or quoted on the OTCBB or the over-the-counter market, the "Market Price" shall be as determined by the Board of Directors in good faith, absent manifest error. (d) Upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and cause promptly to be delivered upon such exercise to, or upon the written order of, the Holder and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares to which such Holder shall be entitled, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a Warrant Share otherwise issuable upon such exercise. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued, and any person so designated to be the person or persons entitled to receive the Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Warrant Shares for all purposes, as of the close of business on the date of the surrender of this Warrant and full payment of the Exercise Price. (e) If this Warrant is exercised in respect of less than all of the Warrant Shares evidenced by this Warrant at any time prior to the end of the Exercise Period, a new Warrant evidencing the remaining Warrant Shares shall be issued to the Holder, or its nominee(s), without charge therefor. 2. Upon each exercise of the Holder's rights to purchase Warrant Shares, the Holder shall be deemed to be the holder of record of the Warrant Shares, notwithstanding that the transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or certificates representing the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant was exercised shall not then have been actually delivered to the - 3 - Holder. As soon as practicable after each such exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates representing 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 Warrant evidencing the right of the Holder to purchase the balance of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder as to which this Warrant has not been exercised or assigned. 3. Any Warrants issued upon the transfer or exercise in part of this Warrant shall be numbered and shall be registered in a warrant register (the "WARRANT REGISTER") as they are issued. The Company shall be entitled to treat the registered holder of any Warrant on the Warrant Register as the owner in fact thereof for all purposes, and shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to, or interest in, such Warrant on the part of any other person, and shall not be liable for any registration of transfer of Warrants which are registered or to be registered in the name of a fiduciary or the nominee of a fiduciary unless made with the actual knowledge that a fiduciary or nominee is committing a breach of trust in requesting such registration or transfer, or with the knowledge of such facts that its participation therein amounts to bad faith. This Warrant shall be transferable on the books of the Company only upon delivery thereof duly endorsed by the Holder or by his duly authorized attorney or representative, or accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer. In all cases of transfer by an attorney, executor, administrator, guardian, or other legal representative, duly authenticated evidence of his, her, or its authority shall be produced. Upon any registration of transfer, the Company shall deliver a new Warrant or Warrants to the person entitled thereto. This Warrant may be exchanged, at the option of the Holder thereof, for another Warrant, or other Warrants of different denominations, of like tenor and representing in the aggregate the right to purchase a like number of Warrant Shares (or portions thereof), upon surrender to the Company or its duly authorized agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have no obligation to cause Warrants to be transferred on its books to any person if, in the opinion of counsel to the Company, such transfer does not comply with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"), and the rules and regulations thereunder. 4. The Company shall pay all federal and state taxes (other than taxes on income of the Holder), documentary taxes, stamp taxes, if any, and other governmental charges that may be imposed upon the issuance or delivery of this Warrant or upon the issuance or delivery of Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be required to pay any taxes payable in connection with any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of any Warrants or Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the Holder in respect of which such Warrant Shares are issued. The Company may refuse to deliver the certificates representing the Warrant Shares being issued in a name other than the Holder's name until the Company receives a sum sufficient to pay any tax that will be due because such shares are to be issued in a name other than the Holder's name. 5. (a) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Common Stock, solely for the purpose of providing for the exercise of the Warrants, such number of shares of Common Stock as shall, from time to time, be sufficient - 4 - therefor. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue), without any personal liability attaching to the ownership thereof and will not be issued in violation of any preemptive or similar rights of stockholders. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the trading market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. (b) The transfer agent for the Common Stock and every subsequent transfer agent for any of the Company's securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized securities as shall be required for such purpose. The Company shall keep a copy of this Warrant on file with the transfer agent for the Common Stock and with every subsequent transfer agent for shares of the Company's securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. The Company shall supply such transfer agent with duly executed certificates representing the Common Stock or other securities for such purposes and shall provide or otherwise make available any cash that may be payable as provided in Section 10 hereof. (c) The Company shall not by any action including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary 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 against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (a) not increase the par value of any shares of Common Stock receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, and (b) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant. 6. The Company will (i) obtain and keep effective any and all permits, consents and approvals of Federal or state governmental agencies and authorities and make all filings under Federal and state securities laws, that are required in connection with the issuance and delivery of this Warrant, the exercise of this Warrant, and the issuance and delivery of the Warrant Shares issued upon exercise of this Warrant, and (ii) have the Warrant Shares, upon their issuance, listed on each securities exchange on which the Common Stock (or any other securities included in Warrant Shares) are then listed. - 5 - 7. If the Company purchases or otherwise acquires this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant, and any Warrant surrendered for exchange, substitution, transfer or exercise in whole or in part. 8. The Exercise Price for the Warrants in effect from time to time, and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, shall be subject to adjustment as follows: (a) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (A) pays a stock dividend or otherwise make a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company pursuant to this Warrant), (B) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (C) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (D) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification. (b) If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall distribute to all holders of Common Stock (and not to Holder of the Warrants) evidences of its indebtedness or assets (including cash and cash dividends) or rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any security other than the Common Stock (which shall be subject to Section 8(a)), then in each such case the Exercise Price shall be adjusted by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the record date fixed for determination of stockholders entitled to receive such distribution by a fraction of which the denominator shall be the Fair Market Value determined as of the record date mentioned above, and of which the numerator shall be such Fair Market Value on such record date less the then per share Fair Market Value at such record date of the portion of such assets or evidence of indebtedness so distributed applicable to one outstanding share of the Common Stock as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith. In either case, the adjustments shall be described in a statement provided to the Holder of the portion of assets or evidences of indebtedness so distributed or such subscription rights applicable to one share of Common Stock. Such adjustment shall be made whenever any such distribution is made and shall become effective immediately after the record date mentioned above. (c) When any adjustment is required to be made in the Exercise Price pursuant to subsections 8(a) or 8(b), the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be changed to the number determined by dividing (i) an amount equal to product of the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment, by (ii) the Exercise Price in effect immediately after such adjustment. - 6 - (d) If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company effects any Fundamental Transaction (as hereinafter defined), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, upon exercise of this Warrant, the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and/or any additional consideration or alternate consideration (collectively, the "ALTERNATE CONSIDERATION") receivable upon or as a result of such reorganization, reclassification, merger, consolidation or disposition of assets by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such event. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and, to the extent that the Alternate Consideration is other than an all cash transaction, the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall, to the extent practical, be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. To the extent necessary to effectuate the foregoing provisions, any successor to the Company or surviving entity in such Fundamental Transaction shall issue to the Holder a new warrant consistent with the foregoing provisions and evidencing the Holder's right to exercise such warrant into Alternate Consideration. The terms of any agreement pursuant to which a Fundamental Transaction is effected shall include terms requiring any such successor or surviving entity to comply with the provisions of this Section 3(d) and insuring that this Warrant (or any such replacement security) will be similarly adjusted upon any subsequent transaction substantially similar or analogous to a Fundamental Transaction. (e) (A) If the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, as applicable, at any time shall offer, sell, grant any option to purchase or offer, sell or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue, any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents (as defined below) entitling any Person to acquire shares of Common Stock, at an effective price per share less than the then Exercise Price (such issuances, individually and collectively, a "DILUTIVE ISSUANCE"), as adjusted hereunder, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced in accordance with the following formula: X = ((A)(Y)) + ((B)(Z)) ----------------- Y + Z where: X = the new Exercise Price; A = the Exercise Price in effect immediately before the Dilutive Issuance; - 7 - Y = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately before the Dilutive Issuance, including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise, conversion or exchange of Common Stock Equivalents outstanding immediately before the Dilutive Issuance, whether or not then exercisable, convertible or exchangeable, but excluding any treasury shares; B = Base Share Price (as defined in Section 8(e)(B), (C) and (D) below); For purposes hereof, Base Share Price shall be calculated and applied on a per-share basis; and Z = the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of Common Stock Equivalents issued in the Dilutive Issuance. Such adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made upon each occurrence of a Dilutive Issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustment to the Exercise Price shall be made under this Section 8(e) in respect of an Exempt Issuance (as defined below). (B) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock for cash, the Base Share Price shall be deemed to be the amount of cash paid therefore. (C) In the case of the issuance of the Common Stock for a consideration in whole or in part other than cash, the Base Share Price shall be deemed to be the sum of such cash and the fair value of such consideration as determined by the Board of Directors irrespective of any accounting treatment. (D) In the case of the issuance of Common Stock Equivalents, the following provisions shall apply for all purposes of this Section 3: (i) The aggregate maximum number of shares of Common Stock deliverable upon conversion or exercise of, or in exchange for, any such Common Stock Equivalents shall be deemed to have been issued at the time such Common Stock Equivalents were issued and for a consideration equal to the consideration, if any, received by the Company for the Common Stock Equivalents (excluding any cash received on account of accrued interest or accrued dividends), plus the minimum additional consideration, if any, to be received by the Company (without taking into account potential anti-dilution adjustments) upon the conversion, exchange or exercise of such Common Stock Equivalents; PROVIDED that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of Common Stock Equivalents is reduced over time or on the occurrence or non-occurrence of specified events other than by reason of anti-dilution adjustments, the then Base Share Price shall be recalculated using the figure to which such minimum amount of consideration is reduced; PROVIDED FURTHER that if the minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such Common Stock Equivalents is subsequently increased, the then Base Share Price shall be again recalculated using the increased minimum amount of consideration payable to the Company upon the exercise or conversion of such Common Stock Equivalents. - 8 - (ii) Upon the expiration or termination of any Common Stock Equivalents, the Exercise Price shall be adjusted to reflect the Exercise Price in effect prior to the issuance of such Common Stock Equivalents. (f) As used in this Section 8, the following terms have the meanings set forth below: (i) "COMMON STOCK EQUIVALENTS" means any securities of the Company or the subsidiaries of the Company which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire at any time Common Stock, including without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, rights, options, warrants or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Common Stock. (ii) "EXEMPT ISSUANCE" means the issuance (i) of shares of Common Stock or options to employees, officers or directors of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose, (ii) of securities upon the exercise of or conversion of convertible securities, options or warrants issued and outstanding on the date of this Warrant Agreement, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such securities have not been amended since the date of this Warrant Agreement to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise or conversion price of any such securities (other than by the antidilution provisions thereof, if any), and (iv) of securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions, provided any such issuance shall only be to a Person that is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and in which the Company receives benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities. (iii) "FUNDAMENTAL TRANSACTION" means (a) an acquisition after the date hereof by an individual or legal entity or "group" (as described in Rule 13d-5(b)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act) of effective control (whether through legal or beneficial ownership of capital stock of the Corporation, by contract or otherwise) of in excess of fifty percent (50%) of the voting securities of the Corporation, (b) each of Suzanne Lewsadder and Jeffrey Lewsadder should cease to be a member of the Board of Directors, (c) the merger or consolidation of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company in one or a series of related transactions with or into another entity or (d) the sale, lease, license or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Company in one or a series of related transactions. (iv) "PERSON" means an individual or corporation, partnership, trust, incorporated or unincorporated association, joint venture, limited liability company, joint stock company, government (or an agency or subdivision thereof) or other entity of any kind. (g) The Company shall not amend its Certificate of Incorporation (as amended from time to time), its By-laws or participate in any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, - 9 - merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action for the purpose of avoiding or seeking to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms to be observed or performed by the Company pursuant to this Section 8, but shall at all times in good faith assist in carrying out all such action as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Investor against dilution or other impairment as provided herein. (h) Upon the occurrence of each adjustment or readjustment of the Exercise Price pursuant to this Section 8, the Company at its expense shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable but in any event not later than fifteen (15) days thereafter, compute such adjustment or readjustment in accordance with the terms hereof and furnish to the Holder a certificate setting forth such adjustment or readjustment (including the kind and amount of securities, cash or other property for which this Warrant shall be exercisable and the Exercise Price) and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment or readjustment is based. The Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable after the written request at any time of the Holder (but in any event not later than 15 days thereafter), furnish or cause to be furnished to the Holder a certificate setting forth (i) the Exercise Price then in effect and (ii) the number and class or series of Warrant Shares and the amount, if any, of other securities, cash or property which then would be received upon the exercise of this Warrant. (i) All calculations under this Section 8 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. (j) The Company shall not be required upon the exercise of this Warrant to issue any fractional shares, but shall pay the value thereof to the Holder in cash on the basis of the Fair Market Value per Warrant Share, as determined pursuant to subsection 1(b) above. 9. Unless registered, the Warrant Shares issued on exercise of the Warrants shall be subject to a stop transfer order and the certificate or certificates representing the Warrant Shares shall bear the following legend: THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (2) THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE HOLDER OF SUCH SECURITIES, WHICH COUNSEL AND OPINION ARE REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. - 10 - 11.

Promptly upon the appointment of any subsequent transfer agent of the Common Stock, or any other securities issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant, the Company will deliver to the Holder a statement setting forth the name and address of such subsequent transfer agent. 14.
