                       Exhibits:  Page 11

<PAGE>

     This Warrant is subject to the following terms, provisions,
and conditions:

     1.   Mechanics of Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised as
follows:

          (a)  Manner of Exercise.  This Warrant may be exercised by the
Holder, in whole or in part, by the surrender of this Warrant (or
evidence of loss, theft, destruction or mutilation thereof in
accordance with Section 7(c) hereof), together with a completed
exercise agreement in the Form of Exercise Agreement attached
hereto as Exhibit 1 (the "Exercise Agreement"), to Grantors at
Grantor's principal executive offices (or such other office or
agency of Grantor as they may designate by notice to the Holder),
and upon (i) payment to the Grantors in cash, by certified or
official bank check or by wire transfer for the account of the
Company, of the Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified
in the Exercise Agreement or (ii) if the Holder elects to effect
a Cashless Exercise (as defined in Section 11(c) below), delivery
to the Company of a written notice of an election to effect a
Cashless Exercise for the Warrant Shares specified in the
Exercise Agreement.  The Warrant Shares so purchased shall be
deemed to be issued to the Holder or Holder's designees, as the
record owner of such shares, as of the date on which this Warrant
shall have been surrendered, the completed Exercise Agreement
shall have been delivered, and payment (or notice of an election
to effect a Cashless Exercise) shall have been made for such
shares as set forth above.  Any exercise of the Warrant will be
fulfilled by Wynnchurch providing 49.20208% of the Warrant Shares
to be issued to Holders pursuant to an Exercise Agreement, and
Wynnchurch Canada providing the remaining 50.79792% (rounded as
Grantors shall agree).

     (b)  Issuance of Certificates.  Grantors shall use their
reasonable efforts  to cause certificates for the Warrant Shares
so purchased, representing the aggregate number of shares
specified in the Exercise Agreement, to be delivered to the
Holder  within a reasonable time, not exceeding twenty (20)
business days, after this Warrant shall have been so exercised
(the "Delivery Period").  The certificates so delivered shall be
in such denominations as may be requested by the Holder and shall
be registered in the name of  Holder or such other name as shall
be designated by such Holder.  If this Warrant shall have been
exercised only in part, then, unless this Warrant has expired,
the Grantors shall, at its expense, at the time of delivery of
such certificates, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant
representing the number of shares with respect to which this
Warrant shall not then have been exercised.

     (c)  Fractional Shares.  No fractional shares of Common
Stock are to be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, and any
fractional shares of Common Stock shall be rounded up to the next
whole number.

     2.   Period of Exercise.

          (a)  Subject to the other provisions of Section 2 hereof,
this Warrant is exercisable at any time or from time to time:

               (i)  with respect to one-third of the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock which are the subject of this
Warrant (less any shares already exercised), on or after the
first anniversary of the date of this Warrant if, on the first
anniversary of the date of this Warrant, the initial Holder of
this Warrant is serving as Chairman of the Board of Directors of

                       Exhibits:  Page 12
<PAGE>
the Company pursuant to that certain Director
Agreement effective as of August 5, 2002 between the Company
and the initial Holder of this Warrant (the "Director
Agreement");

               (ii) with respect to two-thirds of the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock which are the subject of
this Warrant (less any shares already exercised), on or
after the second anniversary of the date of this Warrant
if, on the second anniversary of the date of this
Warrant, the initial Holder of this Warrant is serving
as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company pursuant
to the Director Agreement ; or

               (iii) in full on or after the third anniversary of
the date of this Warrant if, on the third anniversary of
the date of this Warrant, the initial Holder of this
Warrant is serving as Chairman of the Board of Directors
of the Company pursuant to the Director agreement,
and, in each case, until the termination of this Warrant as set
forth in Section 2(c) below.

          (b)  Accelerated Vesting.  Notwithstanding Section 2(a):

               (i) If the initial Holder of this Warrant
is removed by the Company from his position as Chairman of the
Company without Cause (as defined in the Director Agreement)
after the ninety day anniversary but prior to the first
annual anniversary of the date of the Director Agreement,
this Warrant shall be exercisable at any time or from time
to time with respect to one-third of the aggregate number
of shares of Common Stock which are the subject of this
Warrant until the termination of this Warrant as set
forth in Section 2(c) below.

               (ii) If  Director is removed by the Company from
his position as Chairman of the Company without Cause after
the first annual anniversary of the date hereof but prior to
the second annual anniversary of the Director Agreement,
this Warrant shall be exercisable at any time or from time
to time with respect to one-half of the aggregate number of
shares of Common Stock which are the subject of this Warrant
(less any shares already exercised) until the termination
of this Warrant as set forth in Section 2(c) below.

               (iii)  if there is a change in control of the
Company (as defined in the Directors Agreement), this Warrant
shall be exercisable in full at any time or from time to time
until the termination of this Warrant as set forth in
Section 2(c)(ii) below (a "Change of Control Event").

               (iv) if the initial Holder of this Warrant is removed
from his position as Chairman of the Company for Cause (a
"Termination for Cause Event"), this Warrant shall immediately
terminate, and this Warrant shall not be exercisable.

          (c)  This Warrant shall cease to be exercisable and shall

Warrant ceases to serve as Chairman of the Company for any

                       Exhibits:  Page 13
<PAGE>
reason (unless (i) termination is due to the death or disability
of the initial Holder of this Warrant, or (ii) termination or
resignation follows a Change of Control Event, and in either
such case, this Warrant shall cease to be exercisable and shall
terminate at such time the options issued to the initial Holder
of this Warrant pursuant to the Director Agreement terminate);

               (iii) the occurrence of a Termination for Cause
Event, provided however, that if the initial Holder of the Warrant
disputes whether a termination for Cause Event occurred pursuant
to the Directors Agreement, the period of exercise and
termination of this Warrant shall be suspended until a
determination is made, and, if it is determined that a
Termination for Cause Event has not occurred, this Warrant shall
cease to be exercisable and terminate at 5:00 p.m. Central
Standard Time on the 30th day following such date of
determination;

               (iv) the date of termination of any of Grantors'
Warrants pursuant to Section 4(e) of Grantors' Warrants (as
defined in Section 3(c) below).

The applicable period of exercise of this Warrant is referred
to as the "Exercise Period".

          (d)  Notwithstanding any implication to the contrary, this
Warrant may not be exercised at any time where the exemption set
forth in Rule 16b-6(b) of the Rules promulgated pursuant to the
Exchange Act would not be applicable to such exercise.

     3.   Certain Agreements of the Company.  The Grantors hereby
covenant and agree as follows:

          (a)  Shares to be Fully Paid.  All Warrant Shares will, upon
transfer in accordance with the terms of this Warrant, be validly
issued, fully paid, and non-assessable and free from all taxes,
liens, claims and encumbrances.

          (b)  [Intentionally Omitted]

          (c)  Certain Actions.  The Grantors will not avoid or
seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms
to be observed or performed by it hereunder, but will at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all the
provisions of this Warrant and in the taking of all such
actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holder of this
Warrant in order to protect the exercise privilege of the
Holder of this Warrant, consistent with the tenor and purpose
of this Warrant.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Grantors
obligations to provide Holder with Warrant Shares the
subject of this Warrant shall be excused to the extent that,
(a) the Grantors seek to provide such Warrant Shares through
an exercise of any of the warrants received by them pursuant
to the Securities Purchase Agreement ("Grantors' Warrants"),
and (b) the Company refuses to exercise such Warrants.

     4.   Antidilution Provisions.

          (a)  Proportional Adjustments.  During the Exercise Period,
the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares shall be
proportionately adjusted in the same manner and to the same
extent as the Grantors' Warrants (to the extent any of the
Grantors' Warrants are then outstanding) are adjusted pursuant to
Section 4 of the Grantors' Warrants.  Upon the occurrence

                       Exhibits:  Page 14
<PAGE>
of any event which requires any adjustment of the Exercise Price
under the Grantors' Warrants (which Holder and Grantors acknowledge
would thus trigger a like adjustment in this Warrant), then, and
in each such case, the Grantors shall forward such notice thereof
to the Holder.

          (b)  [Intentionally Omitted].

          (c)  Other Notices.  In case at any time:

               (i)  the Company shall declare any dividend upon
the Common Stock payable in shares of stock of any class or make
any other distribution to the holders of the Common Stock;

               (ii) the Company shall offer for subscription pro
rata to the holders of the Common Stock any additional shares of
stock of any class or other rights;

               (iii) there shall be any capital reorganization of
the Company, or reclassification of the Common Stock, or
consolidation or merger of the Company with or into, or sale of
all or substantially all of its assets to, another corporation or
entity; or

               (iv) there shall be a voluntary or involuntary
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up of the Company;

then, in each such case, the Grantors shall forward to the Holder
(x) notice of the date on which the books of the Company shall
close or a record shall be taken for determining the holders of
Common Stock entitled to receive any such dividend, distribution,
or subscription rights or for determining the holders of Common
Stock entitled to vote in respect of any such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution,
liquidation or winding-up and (y) in the case of any such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale,
dissolution, liquidation or winding-up, notice of the date (or,
if not then known, a reasonable approximation thereof by the
Company) when the same shall take place.  Such notice shall also
specify the date on which the holders of Common Stock shall be
entitled to receive such dividend, distribution, or subscription
rights or to exchange their Common Stock for stock or other
securities or property deliverable upon such reorganization,
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, dissolution,
liquidation, or winding-up, as the case may be.  Such notice
shall be forwarded no more than ten (10) days following its
receipt by Grantors.

     5.   Issue Tax.  The issuance of certificates for Warrant Shares
upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be made without charge to
the Holder or such shares for any issuance tax or other costs in
respect thereof, provided that the Grantors shall not be required
to pay any tax which may be payable in respect of any transfer
involved in the issuance and delivery of any certificate in a
name other than the Holder.

     6.   No Rights or Liabilities as a Stockholder.  This Warrant
shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights
as a stockholder of the Company.  No provision of this Warrant,
in the absence of affirmative action by the Holder to purchase
Warrant Shares, and no mere enumeration herein of the rights or
privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the
Holder for the Exercise Price or as a stockholder of the Company,
whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors
of the Company.

     7.   Transfer, Exchange, Redemption and Replacement of Warrant.

          (a)  Restriction on Transfer.  This Warrant and the
rights granted to the Holder are transferable, in whole or in
part, upon surrender of this Warrant, together with a properly
executed assignment in the Form of Assignment attached hereto
as Exhibit 2, at the office or agency of Grantors referred to
in Section 1(a) above.  Until due presentment for registration
of transfer on the books of the Company, Grantors may treat
the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder hereof
for all purposes, and Grantors shall not be affected by any
notice to the contrary.  Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the registration rights described
in Section 8 hereof are assignable only in  accordance with the
provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement.  Until this
Warrant or the shares represented by this Warrant are registered
under the Securities Act, the Grantors may require, as a condition
of transfer of this Warrant or the shares represented by this
Warrant, that the transferee (who may be the Holder in the case
of an exchange) represent that the securities being transferred
are being acquired for investment purposes and for the
transferee's own account and not with a view to or for sale in
connection with any distribution of the security.  The Grantors
may also require that the transferee provide written information
adequate to establish that the transferee is an "accredited
investor" within the meaning of Regulation D issued under the
Securities Act, or otherwise meets all qualifications necessary
to comply with exemptions to the Securities Act, all as
determined by counsel to the Company and/or Grantors.

          (b)  [Intentionally Omitted]

          (c)  Replacement of Warrant.  Upon receipt of evidence
reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the loss, theft,
destruction, or mutilation of this Warrant or, in the case of
any such loss, theft, or destruction, upon delivery, of an
indemnity agreement reasonably satisfactory in form and amount to the
Grantors, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon surrender and
cancellation of this Warrant, Grantors, at their expense, will
execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Warrant, in the form
hereof, in such denominations as Holder may request.

          (d)  Cancellation; Payment of Expenses.  Upon the
surrender of this Warrant in connection with any transfer,
exchange, or replacement as provided in this Section 7,
this Warrant shall be promptly canceled by Grantors.
Grantors shall pay all issuance taxes (other than securities
transfer taxes) and charges payable in connection with the
preparation, execution, and delivery of Warrants pursuant to
this Section 7.

     8.   Registration.  The initial holder of this Warrant (and
certain assignees thereof) is entitled to the benefit of such
registration rights in respect of the Warrant Shares as are set
forth in the Registration Rights Agreement between the company
and the initial holder of this Warrant as if it were a transferee
of a Grantors' Warrant.  For the avoidance of doubt, Holder
acknowledges that it does not have the right to request a
registration described in the first sentence of Section 1.4(a) of
the Registration Rights Agreement.

                       Exhibits:  Page 16

     9.  Notices.  Any notice herein  required or permitted to
be given shall be in writing and may be personally served or

sending by telecopy), and shall be deemed delivered at the
time and date of receipt (which shall include facsimile

     10.  Governing Law; Jurisdiction.  This Warrant shall be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
Illinois applicable to contracts made and to be performed in the
State of Illinois.  Holder and Grantors irrevocably consent to
the jurisdiction of the United States federal courts located in
the State of Illinois and the state courts located in the County
of Cook in the State of Illinois in any suit or proceeding based
on or arising under this Warrant and irrevocably agrees that all
claims in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined in
such courts.  Holder and Grantors irrevocably waive the defense
of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit or
proceeding.  Holder and Grantors agree that a final nonappealable
judgment in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and
may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on such judgment
or in any other lawful manner.  Grantors acknowledge that a
breach by them of their obligations hereunder will cause
irreparable harm to the Holder of the Warrant and that the remedy
at law for any such breach or threatened breach, the Holder shall
be entitled, in addition to all other available remedies, to specific

                       Exhibits:  Page 17
<PAGE>
performance or an injunction restraining any breach,
without the necessity of showing economic loss and without any
bond or other security being required.  TO THE EXTENT NOT
PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF
GRANTORS AND HOLDER HEREBY WAIVES, AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT
ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT
TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM,
DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON
THIS WARRANT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF OR ANY OBLIGATION
HEREUNDER OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL
TO THE DEALINGS OF THE GRANTORS, HOLDERS OR THE COMPANY OR ANY OF
THEM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY OF THE ABOVE, IN EACH CASE WHETHER
NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN
CONTRACT OR TORT OR OTHERWISE.  EACH OF GRANTORS AND HOLDER
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 10 CONSTITUTE A
MATERIAL INDUCEMENT UPON WHICH EACH OF HOLDER AND GRANTORS HAVE
RELIED, ARE RELYING AND WILL RELY IN ENTERING INTO THIS
AGREEMENT, AND EACH OF THE RELATED AGREEMENTS.  Holder or
Grantors may file an original counterpart or a copy of this
Section 10 with any court as written evidence of the consent of
the parties hereto to the waiver of their respective right to
trial by jury.

     11.  Miscellaneous.

          (a)  Amendments.  This Warrant and any provision hereof may only
be amended by an instrument in writing signed by the Grantors and
the Holder.

          (b)  Descriptive Headings.  The descriptive headings of the
several Sections of this Warrant are inserted for purposes of
reference only, and shall not affect the meaning or construction
of any of the provisions hereof.

          (c)  Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary contained in this Warrant, this Warrant may be
exercised by presentation and surrender of this Warrant to the
Company at its principal executive offices with a written notice
of the Holder's intention to effect  a cashless exercise,
including a calculation of the number of shares of Common Stock
to be issued upon such exercise in accordance with the terms
hereof (a "Cashless Exercise"). In the event of a Cashless
Exercise, in lieu of paying the Exercise Price in cash, the
Holder shall surrender this Warrant for the number of shares
of Common Stock determined by multiplying the number of Warrant
Shares to which it would otherwise be entitled by a fraction,
the numerator of which shall be the difference between the then
current Market Price per share of the Common Stock and the
Exercise Price, and the denominator of which shall be such then
current Market Price per share of Common Stock.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if Grantors seek to provide the Warrant Shares to be
provided in a Cashless Exercise through exercise of the Grantors'
Warrants, the number of Warrant Shares to be received by a Holder
with respect to a Cashless Exercise shall not exceed the number
of shares granted to Grantors on account of a cashless exercise of
the Grantors' Warrants with respect to the same number of
shares as the Warrant Shares the subject of the Cashless Exercise.

                       Exhibits:  Page 18
<PAGE>
          (d)  Assignability.  This Warrant shall be binding
upon the Grantors and its successors and assigns and shall
inure to the benefit of Holder and its successors and
assigns. The Holder shall notify the Grantors upon the
assignment of this Warrant.

                    FORM OF EXERCISE AGREEMENT

  (To be Executed by the Holder in order to Exercise the Warrant)

     The undersigned hereby irrevocably exercises the right to
purchase ------------- of the shares of common stock of
Alternative Resources Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), evidenced by the attached Warrant, and [herewith
makes payment of the Exercise Price with respect to such shares
in full] [elects to effect a Cashless Exercise pursuant to the
terms of the Warrant], all in accordance with the conditions and
provisions of said Warrant.

     (i)  The undersigned agrees not to offer, sell, transfer or
otherwise dispose of any Common Stock obtained on exercise of the
Warrant, except under circumstances that will not result in a
