         This Option Agreement (the "Agreement") is made and entered into
effective as of June 1, 1996 by and between Pollution Research and Control
Corp., a California corporation ("PRCC") and Roland Fink ("Optionee").

         WHEREAS, Optionee has been providing valuable services as recognized
by the Company's Board of Directors to PRCC and PRCC is desirous of having
Optionee continue to provide such services to it; and

         WHEREAS, PRCC is willing to grant Optionee an option to purchase up to
an aggregate of 20,000 shares of the no par value common stock of PRCC (the
"Common Stock") under the terms and conditions set forth below.

         NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

         1.      GRANT OF OPTION.  PRCC hereby grants to Optionee, as a matter
of separate agreement and not in lieu of other compensation for services, the
right and option (the "Option") to purchase on the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement all or any part of up to an aggregate of 20,000 shares
of Common Stock (the "Option Shares"), for continuous, uninterrupted,
employment service to PRCC or by specific acknowledgement of exception by the
Company's Board of Directors.

         2.      OPTION PRICE.  At any time when shares of Common Stock are to
be purchased pursuant to the Option, the purchase price for each Option share
shall be $1.10 (the ""Option Price"), and for purposes of record, the bid price

         3.      OPTION PERIOD.  The option period shall commence on January 7,
1998 (the "Date of Grant") and shall terminate four (4) years from the Date of
Grant.

         4.      EXERCISE OF OPTION.  The Option may be exercised in whole or
in part at any time after the date hereof by delivering to the Chief Financial
Officer of PRCC (a) a Notice and Agreement of Exercise of Option, substantially

Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised, and (b) full payment of
the Option Price for such Shares.

         5.      SECURITIES LAWS REQUIREMENTS.  The Option Shares have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), and no
Shares may be sold, offered for sale, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or
otherwise disposed of except in compliance with the Act and any other
applicable federal and state securities laws.  Additionally, the Option and the
Option Shares have not been qualified under the California Securities Law of
1968, as amended (the "California Law").  PRCC has no obligation to register
the Option shares under the Act or qualify the Option Shares under the
California Law.  Optionee acknowledges that he is aware that Rule 144 of the
General Rules and Regulations under the Act ("Rule 144") affords a limited
exemption from registration for the public resale of registered securities and
under the terms of Rule 144 as currently in effect, the Shares received by
Optionee may be sold to the public without registration only after a period of
two (2) years has elapsed from the exercise date of the Option and then only in
compliance with all other requirements of Rule 144 and the Act.  Optionee
hereby acknowledges, represents, warrants and agrees as follows:

                 (a)      That the Option and the Option Shares are not
registered under the Act or qualified under the California Law, and the Option
Shares shall be, acquired solely for the account of Optionee for investment
purposes only and with no view to their resale or other distribution of any
kind;

                 (b)      Neither the Option nor any Option Share shall be sold
or otherwise distributed in violation of the Act, the California Law or any
other applicable federal or state securities law;

                 (c)      His overall commitment to investments that are not
readily marketable is not disproportionate to his net worth, and his investment
in PRCC will not cause such overall commitment to become excessive;

                 (d)      He has the financial ability to bear the economic
risk of his investment, has adequate means of providing for his current needs
and personal contingencies, and has no need for liquidity in his investment in
PRCC;

                 (e)      He either: (i) has a preexisting personal or business
relationship with PRCC or its officers, directors or controlling persons, or
(ii) has evaluated the business of PRCC and the high risks of investing in
PRCC, the competitive nature of the business in which PRCC is engaged,





                                       3

and has the business or financial experience or has business or financial
advisors who are unaffiliated with, and not compensated by, PRCC and protect
his interests in connection with the transaction;

                 (f)      He has been given the opportunity to review all
books, records and documents of PRCC and to ask questions and receive answers
from PRCC concerning PRCC's business, to obtain additional information
necessary to verify the accuracy of the information he has desired in order to
evaluate his investment, and to consult with such attorneys, accountants and
other advisors as he has desired;

                 (g)      His residence set forth below is his true and correct
residence, and he has no present intention of becoming a resident or
domiciliary of any other state of jurisdiction;

                 (h)      In making the decision to accept the Option and/or
purchase the Option Shares, he has relied solely upon independent
investigations made by or on behalf of him;

                 (i)      No federal or state agency has made any finding or
determination as to the fairness of an investment in PRCC; and

                 (j)      He understands that all the representations and
warranties made by him herein, and all information furnished by him to PRCC,
is true, correct and complete in all respects.

         6.      Optionee hereby acknowledges that he understands the meaning
and legal consequences of the representations, warranties and covenants
contained herein and that PRCC has relied on the representations made by
Optionee in paragraph 5 hereof in granting this Option, and Optionee agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless PRCC and its officers, directors, controlling
persons, attorneys, agents and employees from and against any and all loss,
damage or liability, together with all costs and expenses (including attorneys'
fees and disbursements) which any of them may incur by reason of any breach and
any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained herein.  All
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements, and the indemnification
contained herein shall survive the grant of the Option and the issuance of the
Option Shares by PRCC.

         7.      LEGEND OF CERTIFICATES.  All Option Shares issued pursuant to
this Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the
certificates representing such Option Shares shall bear the following legend or

         AVAILABILITY OF WHICH IS TO BE ESTABLISHED TO THE SATISFACTION OF THE
         COMPANY."



         8.      Transferability of Option.  The Option shall not be
transferable except by the laws of descent and distribution and any attempt to
do so shall void the Option.

         9.      ADJUSTMENT.  The Option Price and the number and kind of
Option Shares shall be subject to corresponding adjustment in the event of any
change in the Common stock by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization,
split-up, combination, exchange of shares, readjustment or stock dividend, in
like manner as if such Option Shares had been issued and outstanding, fully
paid and non-assessable at the time of such occurrence.

         10.     PRIVILEGE OF OWNERSHIP.  Optionee shall not have any of the
rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares covered by the Option except
