                                  TEKGRAF, INC.

     This certifies that FOR VALUE RECEIVED ________________________________ or
registered assigns (the "Registered Holder") is the owner of the number of Class
A Warrants ("Warrants") specified above. Each Warrant represented hereby
initially entitles the Registered Holder to purchase, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in this Warrant Certificate and the Warrant Agreement (as
hereinafter defined), one fully paid and nonassessable share of Class A Common
Stock, $.001 value ("Common Stock"), of Tekgraf, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), at any time through the Expiration Date (as hereinafter
defined), upon the presentation and surrender of this Warrant Certificate with
the Subscription Form on the reverse hereof duly executed, at the corporate
office of American Stock Transfer & Trust Company as Warrant Agent, or its
successor (the "Warrant Agent"), accompanied by payment of $8.40 (the "Purchase
Price") in lawful money of the United States of America in cash or by official
bank or certified check made payable to the Company.

     This Warrant Certificate and each Warrant represented hereby are issued
pursuant to and are subject in all respects to the terms and conditions set
forth in the Warrant Agreement (the "Warrant Agreement"), dated
___________________, 1997, by and among the Company, the Warrant Agent and D.H.
Blair Investment Banking Corp.

     In the event of certain contingencies provided for in the Warrant
Agreement, the Purchase Price or the number of shares of Common Stock subject to
purchase upon the exercise of each Warrant represented hereby are subject to
modification or adjustment.

     Each Warrant represented hereby is exercisable at the option of the
Registered Holder, but no fractional shares of Common Stock will be issued. In
the case of the exercise of less than all the Warrants represented hereby, the
Company shall cancel this Warrant Certificate upon the surrender hereof and
shall execute and deliver a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant

Certificates of like tenor, which the Warrant Agent shall countersign, for the
balance of such Warrants.

     The term "Expiration Date" shall mean 5:00 P.M. (New York time) on , 2002,
or such earlier date as the Warrants shall be redeemed. If such date shall in
the State of New York be a holiday or a day on which banks are authorized to
close, then the Expiration Date shall mean 5:00 P.M. (New York time) the next
following day which in the State of New York is not a holiday or a day on which
banks are authorized to close.

     The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any securities pursuant to
the exercise of the Warrants represented hereby unless a registration statement
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to such securities is
effective. The Company has covenanted and agreed that it will file a
registration statement and will use its best efforts to cause the same to become
effective and to keep such registration statement current while any of the
Warrants are outstanding. The Warrants represented hereby shall not be
exercisable by a Registered Holder in any state where such exercise would be
unlawful.

     This Warrant Certificate is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the
Registered Holder at the corporate office of the Warrant Agent, for a new
Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor representing an equal
aggregate number of Warrants, each of such new Warrant Certificates to represent
such number of Warrants as shall be designated by such Registered Holder at the
time of such surrender. Upon due presentment with any tax or other governmental
charge imposed in connection therewith, for registration of transfer of this
Warrant Certificate at such office, a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant
Certificates representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants will be issued
to the transferee in exchange therefor, subject to the limitations provided in
the Warrant Agreement.

     Prior to the exercise of any Warrant represented hereby, the Registered
Holder shall not be entitled to any rights of a stockholder of the Company,
including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends or
other distributions, and shall not be entitled to receive any notice of any
proceedings of the Company, except as provided in the Warrant Agreement.

     The Warrants represented hereby may be redeemed at the option of the
Company, at a redemption price of $.05 per Warrant at any time after , 1998 (or
earlier as provided in the Warrant Agreement), provided the Market Price (as
defined in the Warrant Agreement) for the Common Stock shall exceed $11.75 per
share. Notice of redemption shall be given not later than the thirtieth day
before the date fixed for redemption, all as provided in the Warrant Agreement.
On and after the date fixed for redemption, the Registered Holder shall have no
rights with respect to the Warrants represented hereby except to receive the
$.05 per Warrant upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate.

     Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer hereof, the Company
and the Warrant Agent may deem and treat the Registered Holder as the absolute
owner hereof and of each Warrant represented hereby (notwithstanding any
notations of ownership or writing hereon


                                       A-2

<PAGE>

made by anyone other than a duly authorized officer of the Company or the
Warrant Agent) for all purposes and shall not be affected by any notice to the
contrary.

     The Company has agreed to pay a fee of 5% of the Purchase Price upon
certain conditions as specified in the Warrant Agreement upon the exercise of
the Warrants represented hereby.

     This Warrant Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York.

     This Warrant Certificate is not valid unless countersigned by the Warrant
Agent.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this Warrant Certificate to be
duly executed, manually or in facsimile, by two of its officers thereunto duly
authorized and a facsimile of its corporate seal to be imprinted hereon.
