                                EXECUTIVE ORDER D—559—2
                         Relating to Exemptions Under Section 27156
                                      Of the vehicle Code

                               THE MAGNUM GROUP
                  "DIESELCRAFT DIESEL FUEL PURIFICATION SYSTEM®"

WHEREAS, Vehicle Code Sections 27156 and 38391, 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 aftermarket devices from the
prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 27156.

WHEREAS, The Magnum Group of 10500 Bluegrass Trail, P.O. Box 7670, Auburn, California
95604, has applied to the ARB for exemption from the prohibitions in Vehicle Code Sections
27156 and 38391 for its Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System, Models 5—29—S and 30—
200—S, for installation on 2004 and older model—year diesel vehicles. Model 5—29—$ is for
diesel engines with fuel flow rate between 5 to 29 gallons per hour, and Model 30—200—S is for
diesel engines with fuel flow rate of 30 to 200 gallons per hour.

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 ARB finds that:

1.    The Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System is an add—on device installed in the fuel
      line.

2.    The Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System consists of the Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel
      Purifier/Separator and the Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Stabilizer, which were both
       previously issued a Vehicle Code Section 27156 exemption as separate devices.

3.    The fuel line is part of the required motor vehicle pollution control system. The
      Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System by being installed in the fuel line alters the
      original configuration of the fuel line.

4.    The Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System is subject to the prohibitions of Vehicle
      Code Section 27156 and an add—on part as defined by Title 13, CCR Section 1900
       (b)(1).
5.    The Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System does not reduce the effectiveness of
      any required motor vehicle pollution control system.

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

7.    The ARB has not determined what effect the use of the Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel
      Purification System may have on any warranty; either expressed or implied, by the
      manufacturer of a motor vehicle on which the device is installed.


                                               «2.

      Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System is not a certified motor vehicle pollution
      control device pursuant to Health and Safety Code Section 43644.

       The ARB by granting an exemption to The Magnum Group for the Dieselcraft Diesel
       Fuel Purification System does not recommend or endorse in any way the device for
      «emissions reduction, fuel economy, or any other purpose.

IT IS HEREBY RESOLVED that the Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System is exempt
from the prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 27156 for installation on 2004 and older model—
year diesel vehicles subject to the following conditions:

1.    No changes are permitted to the device as described in the application for exemption.
      Any changes to the Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System or any of its
      component, or other factors addressed in this order must be evaluated and approved
      by the ARB prior to marketing in California.

      Marketing of the Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel Purification System without a permanent label
      showing the Executive Order number or marketing of the device for an application
      other than the one stated in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior
      approval is obtained from the ARB. The components of the Dieselcraft Diesel Fuel
      Purification System can be marketed as individual devices as previously exempted.

      Any oral or written references to this Executive Order or its content by The Magnum
      Group, 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 emissions reduction claims for the Dieselcraft
      Diesel Fuel Purification System, and is only a finding that the device is exempt from
      the prohibitions of Vehicle Code Section 27156.

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

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


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 OF THE DIESELCRAFT DIESEL FUEL PURIFICATION SYSTEM.
