                                        EXECUTIVE ORDER D—432
                              Relating to Exemption Under Section 27156
                                         of the Vehicle Code


                                INTERNATIONAL IMPERIAL TRADING CO.   INC.
                                              PETROMIZER

         WHEREAS, Vehicle Code Section 27156 and Title 13 California Code of
         Regulations (hereafter "CCR") Section 2222(e)}), authorize the California Air
         Resources Board (ARB)} and its Executive Officer to exempt add—on and modified
         parts from the prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 27156.

         WHEREAS, International Imperial Trading Co., Inc. of 5202 Beeman Avenue, North
         Hollywood, California 91607, has applied to the ARB for exemption from the
         prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 27156 for the Petromizer.

         WHEREAS,    pursuant to the authority vested in the Executive Officer by Health
         and Safety Code Section 39515 and in the Chief, Mobile Source Division by
         Health and Safety Code Section 39516 and Executive Order G—45—9,      the ARB
         finds:

                1.        The Petromizer is an add—on device that is attached to the fuel
                          line in a motor vehicle.

                2.        The fuel line is part of the required motor vehicle pollution
                          control system.       j

                3.        The Petromizser is intended for use with a required pollution
                          control system.

                4.        The Petromizer by being installed on the fuel line alters the
                          original design of a motor vehicle pollution control system.

                5.        The Petromizer is a device subject to the prohibitions of
                          Vehicle Code Section 27156 and an add—on part as defined by
                          Title 13, CCR Section 1900(b)(1).

                6.        The Petromizer does not reduce the effectiveness of any
                          required motor vehicle pollution control device.

                7.        The ARB, in the exercise of technical judgement, is aware of no
                          basis on which the Petromizer will provide either a decrease in
                          emission or an increase in fuel economy.

                8.        It has not been determined what effect use of the Petromizer
                          may have on any warranty, either expressed or implied, by the
                          manufacturer or a motor vehicle on which the device is
                          installed.

                9.        The Petromizer is not a céertified motor vehicle pollution
                          control device pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section
                          43644 .

                10.       The ARB by granting an exemption to International Imperial
                          Trading Co., Inc. for the Petromizer does not recommend or
                          endorse in any way the Petromizer for emissions reduction,     fuel
                          economy, or any other purpose.


          INT‘L IMPERIAL TRADING CO.,   INC.                     EXECUTIVE ORDER D—432
          PETROMIZER                                             {Page 2 of 2)

          IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that the Petromizer is exempt from the prohibitions of
          Vehicle Code Section 27156 for installation on 1997 and older model—year
          gasoline and diesel powered vehicles subject to the following conditions:

                 1.     This exemption shall not apply to any device, apparatus, or
                        mechanism advertised,     offered for sale or sold with,        or
                        installed on, a motor vehicle prior to or concurrent with
                        transfer to an ultimate purchaser.

                 2.     No changes are permitted to the device as described in the
                        application for exemption.   Any changes to the device,
                        applicable model year,     or other factors addressed in this order
                        must be evaluated and approved by the ARB prior to marketing in
                        California.                           >

                 3.     Marketing of this device using an identification other than
                        that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of this device
                        for an application other than those listed in this Executive
                        Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained
                        from the ARB.  Exemption of this product shall not be construed
                        as an exemption to sell,     offer for sale,   or advertise any
                        component of the product as an individual device.

                 4.     Any oral or written references to this Executive Order or its
                        content by International Imperial Trading Co.,         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 fuel economy or emissions reduction claims for
                        the Carbon Eliminator and is only a finding that the device is
                        exempt from the prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 27156.

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

          Violation of any of the above conditions shall be grounds for revocation of
          this order.  The order may be revoked only after a ten—day written notice of
          intention to revoke the order, in which period the holder of the order may
          request in writing a hearing to contest the proposed revocation.  If a hearing
          is requested, it shall be held within ten days of receipt of the request and
          the order may not be revoked until a determination after hearing that grounds
          for revocation exist.

          Executive Order D—100,   dated April 11,   1980,   is superseded and of no further
          force and effect.

          The Bureau of Automotive Repair will be notiffizf by copy of this order.
