                            EXECUTIVE ORDER D-562-72
                Relatingto Exemptions under Section 27156 and 38391
                                of the Vehicle Code

                              Valina, Inc. (d.b.a. Car Tex)
                       "Series 120000 Three-way Catalytic Converter"

WHEREAS, Vehicle Code Sections 27156 and 38395, and Title 13, California Code of
Regulations (hereafter "CCR") Section 2222(h), authorize the California Air Resources Board
and its Executive Officer to exempt new aftermarket catalytic· converters from the prohibitions
of Vehicle Code Section 27156 and 38391.

WHEREAS, Valina, Inc. (Valina) of 4560 Worth Street, Los Angeles, California 90063, has
applied to the Air Resources Board for exemption from the prohibitions in Vehicle Code
Sections 27156 and 38391 to market its new aftermarket Series 120000 three-way catalytic
converter (TWC) for installation on selected 1996 through 2004 Ford medium duty vehicles
(MDV) equipped with ori-board diagnostic II (OBD II) systems as specified in Appendix
D-562-72 and incorporated herein. Series 120000 is a Torpedo shaped TWC and will be
used for a single (1 unit) per cylinder bank under floor catalytic converter. The Torpedo style
catalytic converters will be sold as direct fit converters.

WHEREAS, pursuant to the authority vested in the Exec;utive Officer by' Health and Safety
Code Section 39515 and in the Chief, Mobile Source Operations Division by Health and
Safety Code Section .39516 and Executive Order G-02-003, the Air Resources Board finds
that the above aftermarket catalytic converter complies with the California Vehicle Code
Sections27156 and 38395 and Title 13, California Code of Regulations, Section 2222(h).
Emission performance of the catalytic converter was based on durability bench-aging by
Umicore Autocat USA Inc. using the Air Resources Board-modified RAT-A bench-aging cycle
for 100 hours, as specified· in Appendix A to the "California Evaluation Procedures for New
Aftermarket Catalytic Converters" as adopted on October 25, 2007.

WHEREAS, previous emissions and OBD II compatibility tests conducted by Valina, Inc.
using a vehicle of weight classification and exhaust configuration similar-to those listed in
Appendix D-562-72 and certified to Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) emission standards resulted
in the issuance of Executive Order D-562-63, it was determined that the installation of Series
120000 TWC on the vehicles listed in Appendix D-562-72 meets the requirements of
California regulation for aftermarket catalytic converters ..

THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that Valina, Inc.'s Series 120000 TWCs are
