                             EXECUTIVE ORDER D—436—8
                      Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156
                                   of the Vehicle Code

                          STEVE MILLEN SPORTPARTS, INC.

                        STILLEN HIGH FLOW INTAKE SYSTEM
                                 PART NO. 402908

Pursuant to the authority vested in the Air Resources Board (ARB) by Section 27156 of
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—45—9;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That installation of the Stillen High Flow intake
system, manufactured by Steve Millen Sportparts, Inc. of 3176 Airway Avenue, Costa
Mesa, California 92626, has been found not to reduce the effectiveness of the
applicable vehicle pollution control system, and therefore, the Stillen High Flow intake
system, part no. 402908, is exempt from the prohibitions of Section 27156 of the
Vehicle Code for installation on the following Nissan Motor Company, Ltd. vehicles:

       Part No.     Model—Year     Vehicle Model                        Engine

       402908      2000             Nissan Sentra SE & Infiniti G20     2.0 liter

This exemption is based on examination of the On—Board Diagnostic II (OBD II) system
of a 2000 model—year Nissan Sentra SE with Steve Millen Sportparts, Inc.‘s Stillen High
Flow intake system and engineering evaluation of the emission impact of the Stillen
High Flow intake system on the vehicle. Based on results of the OBD II system test and
evaluation of the design and operating principles of the Stillen High Flow intake system,
it is concluded that the Stillen High Flow intake system will not affect the operation of
the vehicles‘ OBD !I system and will not adversely affect their exhaust emissions when
tested using the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal Test Procedure (FTP).

However, the ARB finds that reasonable grounds exist to believe that use of the Stillen
High Flow intake system may adversely affect emissions of motor vehicles when
operating under conditions outside the parameters of the Cold—Start CVS—75 FTP.
Accordingly, the ARB 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 Stillen High Flow intake
system adversely affects emissions during off—cycle conditions (defined as those
conditions which are beyond the parameters of the Cold—Start CVS—75 FTP), 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 ARB with
reasons to suspect that the Stillen High Flow intake system will affect the durability of


STEVE MILLEN SPORTPARTS, INC.                                EXECUTIVE ORDER D—436—8
STILLEN HIGH FLOW INTAKE SYSTEM                              (Page 2 of 3)
PART NO. 402908


the emission control system, Steve Millen Sportparts, 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.

This Executive Order is valid provided that installation instructions for the Stillen High
Flow intake system do not recommend tuning the vehicles to specifications different
from those of the vehicle manufacturer.

Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the Stillen High Flow intake
system, as exempt by the ARB, which adversely affect the performance of the vehicles‘
pollution control system, shall invalidate this Executive Order.

Marketing of the Stillen High Flow intake system usihg 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.

Exemption of the Stillen High Flow intake system shall not be construed as exemption
to sell, offer for sale, or advertise any component of the system as an individual device.

This Executive Order shall not apply to any Stillen High Flow intake system 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
Stillen High Flow intake system 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.

THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A CERTIFICATION,
ACCREDITATION, APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENDORSEMENT BY THE
AIR RESOURCES BOARD OF ANY CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING
ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFITS OR ANY ALLEGED BENEFITS OF STEVE MILLEN
SPORTPARTS, INC.‘S STILLEN HIGH FLOW INTAKE SYSTEM.

Violation of any of the above conditions shall be grounds for revocation of this Executive
Order. The Executive Order may be revoked only after a ten—day written notice of

intention to revoke the Executive Order, in which period the holder of the Executive
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 Executive
Order may not be revoked until a determination after the hearing that grounds for
revocation exist.
