the Vehicle Code; and

Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Sections 39515 and 39516 of the
Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—02—003;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That installation of the DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter,
manufactured by Engelhard Corporation of 101 Wood Avenue, Iselin, New Jersey
08830—0770, has been found not to reduce the effectiveness of the applicable vehicle
pollution control system, and therefore, the DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter is exempt from
the prohibitions of Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code for installation on heavy—duty
on—road vehicles equipped with the following diesel engines:

DPX Catalyzed Soot Filters exempted under this Executive Order are identified in
Attachment A. This exemption applies to 1991 through 2001 model—year 4—stroke
heavy—duty diesel engines originally certified to meet 0.10 grams per brake—horsepower—
hour or lower particulate matter emission standard. This exemption is only valid
provided the engines meet the following operating conditions: (1) the engine exhaust
temperature is greater than 300 degrees Celsius for at least 10 percent of the typical
duty cycle and (2) the average engine exhaust temperature is at least 250 degrees
Celsius. The engines can be operated using standard California diesel with a maximum
sulfur content of 500 parts per million by weight.


                                                   2.

l   This exemption is based on emission tests conducted by Engelhard Corporation with
    the DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter. Engelhard Corporation submitted the following results:



              MY         Make          Model       THC       CO      NOx        PM

             2000         DDC         Series 50    —~100     —67      —1        ~—84

             1998        DDC          Series 60    —95       ~64      ~1        —70

             1998     International     530E       —98       —68      —6        —79


    Test results show that the DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter does not adversely affect the
    exhaust emissions of the test engines. The same emission impact is expected when
    the DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter is installed on heavy—duty vehicles equipped with any of
    the engines listed above.

    This Executive Order is valid provided that installation instructions for the DPX
    Catalyzed Soot Filter do not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different
    from those of the vehicle manufacturer.

    Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter,
    as exempt by the ARB, which adversely affect the performance of the vehicle‘s pollution
    control system, shall invalidate this Executive Order.

    Marketing of the DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter using identification other than that shown in
    this Executive Order or for an application other than that listed in this Executive Order
    shall be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from the ARB.

    This Executive Order shall not apply to any DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter advertised,
    offered for sale, sold with, or installed on a motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with
    transfer to an ultimate purchaser.

    This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the use of the
    DPX Catalyzed Soot Filter may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by the
    vehicle manufacturer.

    No claim of any kind, such as "Approved by the Air Resources Board," may be made
    with respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other oral or written
    communication.

    In addition to the foregoing, the ARB 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 California Code of
    Regulations, Title 13, Section 2222, et seq.
