                                  AIR RESOURCES BOARD

                                 EXECUTIVE ORDER D—280—41
                    Relating to Exemptions under Section 27156 and 38391
                                      of the Vehicle Code

                                  Airtek, Inc. (d.b.a. Catco)
                  "Series 110000 & 610000 Three—way Catalytic Converters"

    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 cataly’uc converters from the
    prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 27156 and 38391.

    WHEREAS, Airtek, Inc. (Airtek) of 4410 W. 37"" Avenue, Hobart, Indiana 46342, 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 110000 & 610000
    three—way catalytic converters (TWC) on selected 1996 through 2004 Jaguar passenger
    cars equipped with on—board diagnostic I! (OBD—II)systems as specified in Appendix
    D—280—41 and incorporated herein. Series 110000 & 610000 TW Cs will be used for
    multiple catalytic converter system applications, with Series 110000 as the front
    catalytic converter and Series 610000 as the rear catalytic converter. Series 610000
    TWCs only will be used for dual parallel exhaust applications (one unit per bank).

    WHEREAS, pursuant to the authority vested in the Executive 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 converters comply with the
    California Vehicle Code Sections 27156 and 38395 and Title 13, California Code of
    Regulations, Section 2222(h). Emission performance of the catalytic converters was
    based on durability bench—aging by Southwest Research Institute using the Air —
    Resources Board—modified RAT—A bench—aging cycle for 75 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 AirTek,
    Inc. on vehicles with similar weight classification and exhaust emission standards to
    those listed in Appendix D—280—41, resulted in the issuance of Executive Orders
    D—280—15 and D—280—20, it was determined that the installation of Series 110000 &
    610000 TWCs on the vehlcles listed in Appendix D—280—41 meets the requirements of
    California regulations for aftermarket catalytic converters.

    THEREFORE, T IS HEREBY RESOLVED that Airtek, Inc.‘s Series 110000 & 610000
    TWCs are exempted from the prohibitions in Vehicle Code Sections 27156 and 38391


for installation on the approved vehicle appllcatlons specified in Appendix D—280—40
subject to the following conditions:

1. No changes are permitted to the catalytic converters as described in the application
   for exemption. Any changes to the catalytic converters or any of their components,
   and other factors addressed in this order must be evaluated and approved by the Air
   Resources Board prior to marketing in California.

   Marketing of the catalytic converters using identifications other than those shown in
   the exemption application, and in this Executive Order, or marketing of the catalytic
   converters for application other than the ones shown in this Executive Order shall be
   prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the Air Resources Board.
   Exemption of this product shall not be construed as an exemption to sell, offer for
   sale, or advertise any components of the catalytic converters as individual devices.

   Any oral or written references to this Executive Order or its content by Airtek, Inc., its
   principals, agents, employees, distributors, dealers, or other representatives must
   include the disclaimer that the Executive Order or the exemption it provides is not an
   endorsement or approval of any emission reduction claims for the catalytic
   converters and is only a finding that the catalytic converters are exempt from the
   prohibitions of Vehicle Code Sections 27156 and 38391.

   Airtek, Inc.‘s installation instructions for the new catalytic converters must conform to
   requirements in Section (h) of the "California Evaluation Procedures for New
   Aftermarket Catalytic Converters," as adopted October 25, 2007.

   Installation of the catalytic converters shall not cause the relocation of an oxygen
   sensor. Oxygen sensors must be installed in the same location, position and
   orientation as prescribed in the original equipment manufacturers configurations.

   Upon installation, the catalytic converters must carry a manufacturer‘s warranty for
   five (5) years or 50,000 miles as prescribed in Section (f)(2) of the "California
   Evaluation Procedures for New Aftermarket Catalytic Converters," as adopted
   October 25, 2007.

 . Airtek, Inc. and its vendors may not advertise the new aftermarket catalytic
   converters as "high flow or easy flow" catalytic converters or use any phrase that
   could make them appear to perform better than the original equipment manufacturer
   (OEM) catalytic converters.

   Any marketing arrangement of the new aftermarket catalytic converter by a third
   party, which involves the use of packaging identification different from the ones
    described in this Executive Order, must be approved by the Air Resources Board
    prior to shipment.
