                                       OF

                               BARON ENERGY, INC.

     BARON ENERGY, INC., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"),  hereby certifies
that, for value received, SUNRISE SECURITIES CORP. (the "Warrant Holder") is the
owner of the number of common stock  purchase  warrants  ("Warrants")  specified
above, each of which entitles the holder thereof to purchase, at any time during
the period commencing on the Commencement Date (as defined herein) and ending on
the Expiration Date (as defined herein), one fully paid and non-assessable share
of the Company's common stock, par value $.001 per share ("Common Stock"),  at a
purchase price equal to the Exercise Price (as defined below) in lawful money of
the United  States of America in cash,  subject  to  adjustment  as  hereinafter
provided.

1. Warrant; Exercise Price.

     (a) Each Warrant shall entitle the Warrant Holder the right to purchase one
share of Common Stock of the Company (individually, a "Warrant Share" severally,
the "Warrant Shares").

     (b) The purchase  price  payable upon  exercise of each Warrant  ("Exercise
Price")  shall be $0.01 per  Warrant  Share.  The  Exercise  Price and number of
Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to each Warrant are subject to adjustment as
provided in Section 8.

2. Exercise of Warrant; Expiration Date.

     (a)  This  Warrant  is  exercisable  at any  time  and  from  time  to time
commencing on February 22, 2011  ("Commencement  Date") and ending at 5:00 p.m.,
Central  Standard  Time on February 22, 2013, or if such date shall in the State
of Texas be a holiday or a day on which banks are authorized to close, then 5:00
p.m.,  Central  Standard Time the next following day which in the State of Texas

is not a holiday or a day on which banks are authorized to close (the "Expiration Date"), in whole or from time to time in part, at the option of the Warrant Holder, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company together with a duly completed Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto and payment of an amount equal to the then applicable Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Warrant Shares then being purchased upon such exercise, except as provided in Section 2(b). (b) If the Common Stock is registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the Warrant Holder may elect to pay all or part of the Exercise Price by surrendering shares of Common Stock to the Company, including by allowing the Company to deduct from the number of Warrant Shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant, a number of such shares which has an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the average of the last sale price (defined hereunder) of the Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of exercise of this Warrant, equal to the aggregate Exercise Price. In the event that the Warrant Holder elects to utilize the "cashless exercise" procedure contained in this Section 2(b), this Warrant is exercisable upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company together with a duly completed Notice of Exercise in the form attached hereto and surrender of that number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate Exercise Price determined in accordance with Section 2(b)(i) or (ii). The "Fair Market Value" per share of Common Stock on any relevant date shall be determined in accordance with the following provisions: (i) If the Common Stock is at the time traded on the Pink Sheets, LLC, NASD OTC Bulletin Board or other inter-dealer electronic quotation service, then the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the last sale price per share of the Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days preceding the date of exercise of this Warrant; or (ii) If the Common Stock is at the time listed on any Exchange, then the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the last sale price per share of the Common Stock for the 20 consecutive trading days preceding the date of exercise of this Warrant, on the Exchange determined to be the primary market for the Common Stock. The term "Exchange" shall mean any organization, association, or group of persons, whether incorporated or unincorporated, which constitutes, maintains, or provides a market place or facilities for bringing together purchasers and sellers of securities or for otherwise performing with respect to securities the functions commonly performed by a stock exchange as that term is generally understood, and includes the market place and the market facilities maintained by such exchange. (c) Each exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have been effected immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which this Warrant shall have been surrendered to the Company as provided in this Section 2. At such time, the person or persons in whose name or names any certificates for Warrant Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise as provided in Section 2(d) shall be deemed to have become the holder or holders of record of the Warrant Shares represented by such certificates. (d) Within three business days after the exercise of the purchase right represented by this Warrant, the Company at its expense will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be issued in the name of, and delivered to, the Warrant Holder, or, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to such other individual or entity as such Warrant Holder (upon payment by such Warrant Holder of any applicable transfer taxes) may direct: (i) a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrant Shares to which such Warrant Holder shall be entitled upon such exercise. No fractional shares will be issued but instead will be rounded down to the nearest whole share, and 2
(ii) in case such exercise is in part only, a new Warrant or Warrants (dated the date hereof) of like tenor, stating on the face or faces thereof the number of Warrant Shares currently stated on the face of this Warrant minus the number of such Warrant Shares purchased by the Warrant Holder upon such exercise as provided in this Section 2 (in each case prior to any adjustments made thereto pursuant to the provisions of this Warrant). 3. Registration and Transfer on Company Books. The Company (or an agent of the Company) will maintain a register containing the names and addresses of the Warrant Holders. Any Warrant Holder may change its, his or her address as shown on the warrant register by written notice to the Company requesting such change. The Company shall register upon its books any transfer of a Warrant upon surrender of same as provided in Section 5. 4. Reservation of Shares. The Company will at all times reserve and keep available, solely for issuance and delivery upon the exercise of this Warrant, such Warrant Shares and other stock, securities and property, as from time to time shall be issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant. As long as the Warrant shall be outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants to be listed (subject to official notice of issuance) on each Exchange (or, if applicable, quoted on Nasdaq, the OTC Bulletin Board or Pink Sheets, LLC or any successor electronic quotation service and trading market) on which the Common Stock is then listed and/or quoted, if any. 5. Exchange, Transfer, Assignment or Loss or Mutilation of Warrants. This Warrant is exchangeable, without expense, at the option of the Warrant Holder, upon presentation and surrender hereof to the Company for other warrants of different denominations entitling the holder thereof to purchase in the aggregate the same number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder. Subject to the terms of Section 6 and 7, upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company at its principal office or at the office of its 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 be promptly canceled. 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 together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued and signed by the Warrant 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 reasonable evidence of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant and, in the case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Company, or, in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of the mutilated Warrant, the Company shall execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Warrant of like tenor and date representing an equal number of Warrants. 6. Limitation on Exercise and Sales. (a) Each holder of this Warrant acknowledges that this Warrant and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), as of the date of issuance hereof. This Warrant only may be transferred to a transferee who certifies in writing to the Warrant Holder and to the Company that such transferee is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Company shall be under no obligation to issue the Warrant Shares covered by such exercise unless and until the Warrant Holder shall have executed the form of exercise annexed hereto that states that at the time of such exercise that it is then an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D, is acquiring such Warrant Shares for its own account, and will not transfer the Warrant Shares unless pursuant to an effective and current registration statement under the Securities Act or an exemption from the 3
registration requirements of the Securities Act and any other applicable restrictions, in which event the Warrant Holder shall be bound by the provisions of a legend or legends to such effect that shall be endorsed upon the certificate(s) representing the Warrant Shares issued pursuant to such exercise. In such event, the Warrant Shares issued upon exercise hereof shall be imprinted with a legend in substantially the form provided in Section 7(b). (b) Warrant Holder represents and warrants that it is acquiring this Warrant for its own account, for purposes of investment, and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Warrant Holder represents, warrants and agrees that it will not sell, exercise, transfer or otherwise dispose of this Warrant (or any interest therein) or any of the Warrant Shares purchasable upon exercise hereof, except pursuant to (i) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; or (ii) an opinion of the Company's corporate counsel that an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and such laws is available. Warrant Holder further acknowledges and agrees that the Company is not required, legally or contractually, to so register or qualify the Warrant or such Warrant Shares or to take any action to make such an exemption available. Warrant Holder understands that the Company will be relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations and warranties contained in this Section 6 in issuing this Warrant and such Warrant Shares without first registering the issuance thereof under the Securities Act or qualifying or registering the issuance thereof under any state securities laws that may be applicable. (c) Warrant Holder acknowledges and agrees that (i) there is not now, and there may not be in the future, any public market for the Warrant; (ii) although the Company's Common Stock is currently quoted on the Pink Sheets, there can be no assurance that this or any other market will be sustained in the future; and (iii) there can be no assurance that Warrant Holder will be able to liquidate its investment in the Company. Warrant Holder represents and warrants that it is familiar with and understands the terms and conditions of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act. (d) Warrant Holder represents and warrants to the Company that (i) it has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as is necessary to enable it to evaluate the merits and risks of any investments in the Company and is not utilizing any other person to be a purchaser representative in connection with evaluation of such merits and risks; and (ii) it has no need for liquidity in an investment in the Company and is able to bear the risk of that investment for an indefinite period and to afford a complete loss thereof. (e) Warrant Holder represents and warrants that it has had access to, and has been furnished with, all of the information it has requested from the Company and has had an opportunity to review the books and records of the Company and to discuss with management and members of the board of directors of the Company the business and financial affairs of the Company. (f) Warrant Holder agrees that at the time of each exercise of this Warrant, unless the issuance of the Warrant Shares issuable thereupon is pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state blue sky laws, Warrant Holder will provide the Company with a letter embodying the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 6(b) through (e), in form and substance satisfactory to the Company, and agrees that the certificate(s) representing any shares issued to it upon any exercise of this Warrant may bear such restrictive legend as the Company may deem necessary to reflect the restricted status of such Warrant Shares under the Securities Act unless the Company shall have received from its corporate counsel an opinion that such restrictive legend is not required 4
7. Transfer Restrictions. (a) Transfer Restrictions. If, at the time of the surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer of this Warrant, the transfer of this Warrant shall not be registered pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, the Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer (i) that the Warrant Holder or transferee of this Warrant, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions and reasonably satisfactory to counsel for the Company) to the effect that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws; (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance acceptable to the Company; (iii) that transferee agree in writing with the Company to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Warrant applicable to the Warrant Holder; and (iv) that the transferee be an "accredited investor" as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. (b) Legend. The Warrant Shares issuable on the exercise of the Warrant shall bear the following or similar legend: THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, OR THE SECURITIES COMMISSION OF ANY STATE, IN RELIANCE UPON AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED OR SOLD EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR PURSUANT TO AN AVAILABLE EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS AS EVIDENCED BY A LEGAL OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE COMPANY. (c) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws. 8. Adjustment of Exercise Price and Number of Warrant Shares Deliverable. The Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares purchasable pursuant to each Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth in this Section 8: (a) In case, prior to the expiration of this Warrant by exercise or by its terms, the Company shall issue any shares of its Common Stock as a stock dividend or subdivide the number of outstanding shares of its Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock, then in either of such cases, the then applicable Exercise Price per Warrant Share purchasable pursuant to this Warrant in effect at the time of such action shall be proportionately reduced and the number of Warrant Shares at that time purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall be proportionately increased; and conversely, in the event the Company shall reduce the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock by combining such shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock, then, in such case, the then applicable Exercise Price per Warrant Share purchasable pursuant to this Warrant in effect at the time of such action shall be proportionately increased and the number of Warrant Shares at that time purchasable pursuant to this Warrant shall be proportionately decreased. If the Company shall, at any time during the life of this Warrant, declare a dividend payable in cash on its Common Stock and shall at substantially the same time offer to its stockholders a right to purchase new shares of Common Stock from the proceeds of such dividend or for an amount substantially equal to the dividend, all shares of Common Stock so issued shall, for the purpose of this 5
Warrant, be deemed to have been issued as a dividend. Any dividend paid or distributed upon the Common Stock in stock of any other class of securities convertible into shares of Common Stock shall be treated as a dividend paid in shares of Common Stock to the extent that shares of Common Stock are issuable upon conversion thereof. (b) In case, prior to the expiration of this Warrant by exercise or by its terms, the Company shall be recapitalized by reclassifying its outstanding shares of Common Stock, (other than a change in par value to no par value), or the Company or a successor corporation shall consolidate or merge with or convey all or substantially all of its or of any successor corporation's property and assets to any other corporation or corporations (any such other corporations being included within the meaning of the term "successor corporation" hereinbefore used in the event of any consolidation or merger of any such other corporation with, or the sale of all or substantially all of the property of any such other corporation to, another corporation or corporations), then the holder of this Warrant shall thereafter have the right to purchase, upon the basis and on the terms and conditions specified in this Warrant, in lieu of the Warrant Shares theretofore purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, such shares of stock, securities or assets as may be issued or payable with respect to, or in exchange for, the number of Warrant Shares theretofore purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, had such recapitalization, consolidation, merger, or conveyance not taken place; and in any such event, the rights of the Warrant Holder to any adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares purchasable upon the exercise of this Warrant, as herein provided, shall continue and be preserved in respect of any stock which the Warrant Holder becomes entitled to purchase. 9. Rights of the Holder. The Warrant Holder shall not, by virtue hereof, be entitled to any rights of a stockholder in the Company, either at law or equity, and the rights of the Warrant Holder are limited to those expressed in this Warrant and are not enforceable against the Company except to the extent set forth herein. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the Exercise Date and then only with respect to the Warrant Shares issued with respect thereto. 10. Notices of Record Date. In case: (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its shares of Common Stock (or other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) for the purpose of entitling or enabling them to receive any dividend or other distribution, or to receive any right to subscribe for or purchase any shares of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right; or (b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which the Company is the surviving entity), or any transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, then, and in each such case, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed to the Warrant Holder a notice specifying, as the case may be (i) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right; or (ii) the effective date on which such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, transfer, dissolution, liquidation or winding-up is to take place, and the time, if any is to be fixed, as of which the holders of record of shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities at the time deliverable upon the exercise of this Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other stock or securities) for securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, or transfer. 6
