HKS USA, INC. EXECUTIVE ORDER D—186—9 (Page 2 of 2) This Executive Order is granted based on results from emissions tests conducted in accordance with Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure. However, the Air Resources Board finds that reasonable grounds exist to believe that use of the Sport Turbo may adversely affect emissions of motor vehicles when operating under conditions outside the parameters of the previously prescribed test procedures. Accordingly, the Air Resources Board reserves the right to conduct additional emission tests, in the future, as such tests are developed, that will more adequately measure emissions from all cycle phases. If such test results demonstrate that the Sport Turbo adversely affects emissions during off—cycle conditions (defined as those conditions which are beyond the parameters of the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure), this Executive Order shall be effectively rescinded as of the date the test results are validated. Further, if such test results or other evidence provides the Air Resources Board with reason to suspect that the Sport Turbo will affect the durability of the erission control system, HKS USA, Inc. shall be required to submit durability data to show that the durability of the vehicle emission control system is not, in fact, affected and/or that the add—on or modified part demonstrates adequate durability. In addition to the foregoing, the Air Resources Board reserves the right in the future to review this Executive Order and the exemption provided herein to assure that the exempted add—on or modified part continues to meet the standards and procedures of Title 13, California Cocs of Regulations, Section 2222, et seq.
