                            KINETICS EMPLOYEE JOINDER

      I am an employee, agent, contractor or representative of Kinetics Fluid
Systems, Inc. ("KINETICS").

      Kinetics has entered into agreements with Applied Materials, Inc.
("APPLIED") under which Kinetics will manufacture fluid delivery systems for
Applied.

      As part of that relationship, Applied will disclose its Confidential
Information (defined below) to Kinetics, and Kinetics will disclose the
Confidential Information to those Kinetics employees, agents, contractors and
representatives who must receive the information to perform under the
agreements.

      Applied and Kinetics have agreed to protect the confidentiality of each
other's Confidential Information and, as part of this agreement, have agreed to
have those employees, agents, contractors and representatives that receive
Confidential Information review and agree to the following undertakings
regarding the Confidential Information:

      1 DEFINITION. Confidential Information means all non-public, proprietary
information of, or disclosed by, Applied that, from time-to-time, may be
acquired by Kinetics from Applied and that is related to the fluid delivery
systems being manufactured by Kinetics for Applied pursuant to the Global Supply
Agreement between Applied and Kinetics. The Confidential Information may be in
any form, medium, state or condition, inclusive of information that is embodied
in a product or tangible item or that is intangible, whether disclosed in oral,
written, graphic, machine recognizable (including computer programs, algorithms
or databases), model or sample form or any derivation thereof. Notwithstanding
the above, Confidential Information does not include information:

            (i) of which Kinetics was rightfully in possession prior to
disclosure, as evidenced by appropriate documentation;

            (ii) that was independently developed by employees or agents of
Kinetics without use of Confidential Information provided by Applied hereunder;

            (iii) that Kinetics rightfully receives from a third party not owing
a duty of confidentiality to Applied;

            (iv) that becomes publicly available without fault of Kinetics; or

            (v) whose disclosure is required by order of a court or government
authority, provided that Applied shall have been given timely notice of such
requirement and that Kinetics shall cooperate with Applied to limit the scope
and effect of such order.

      2 CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS. I will hold Applied's Confidential
Information in strictest confidence for five (5) years after receipt, using such
measures as Kinetics uses to protect the confidentiality of its own Confidential
Information of like importance, but in no event using less than reasonable care.
I will not disclose any Confidential Information, other than to other Kinetics
employees, consultants, agents and representatives who have a need to know the
Confidential Information in order to perform the agreements between Kinetics and
Applied. I


                                     - 45 -

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

will not disclose any Confidential Information to any Kinetics Group company
other than Kinetics Fluid Systems, Inc., unless I am specifically advised by
Kinetics that such disclosure has been permitted by Applied. I will use the
Confidential Information solely to perform the activities contemplated by the

CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTED

                            APPLIED EMPLOYEE JOINDER

      I am an employee, agent, contractor or representative of Applied
Materials, Inc. ("APPLIED").

      Applied has entered into agreements with Kinetics Fluid Systems, Inc.
("KINETICS") under which Kinetics will manufacture fluid delivery systems for
Applied.

      As part of that relationship, Kinetics will disclose its Confidential
Information (defined below) to Applied, and Applied will disclose the
Confidential Information to those Applied employees, agents, contractors and
representatives who must receive the information to perform under the
agreements.

      Applied and Kinetics have agreed to protect the confidentiality of each
other's Confidential Information and, as part of this agreement, have agreed to
have those employees, agents, contractors and representatives that receive
Confidential Information review and agree to the following undertakings
regarding the Confidential Information:

      1 DEFINITION. Confidential Information means all non-public, proprietary
information of, or disclosed by, Kinetics that, from time-to-time, may be
acquired by Applied from Kinetics and that is related to the fluid delivery
systems being manufactured by Kinetics for Applied pursuant to the Global Supply
Agreement between Applied and Kinetics. The Confidential Information may be in
any form, medium, state or condition, inclusive of information that is embodied
in a product or tangible item or that is intangible, whether disclosed in oral,
written, graphic, machine recognizable (including computer programs, algorithms
or databases), model or sample form or any derivation thereof. Notwithstanding
the above, Confidential Information does not include information:

            (i) of which Applied was rightfully in possession prior to
disclosure, as evidenced by appropriate documentation;

            (ii) that was independently developed by employees or agents of
Applied without use of Confidential Information provided by Kinetics hereunder;

            (iii) that Applied rightfully receives from a third party not owing
a duty of confidentiality to Kinetics;

            (iv) that becomes publicly available without fault of Applied; or

            (v) whose disclosure is required by order of a court or government
authority, provided that Kinetics shall have been given timely notice of such
requirement and that Applied shall cooperate with Kinetics to limit the scope
and effect of such order.

      2 CONFIDENTIALITY OBLIGATIONS. I will hold the Kinetics' Confidential
Information in strictest confidence for five (5) years after receipt, using such
measures as Applied uses to protect the confidentiality of its own Confidential
Information of like importance, but in no event using less than reasonable care.
I will not disclose any Confidential Information, other than to other Applied
employees, consultants, agents and representatives who have a need to know the
Confidential Information in order to perform the agreements between Kinetics and
Applied. I

will use the Confidential Information solely to perform the activities
contemplated by the agreements between Kinetics and Applied.

      3 IDENTIFICATION AS CONFIDENTIAL. Unless such information is disclosed
orally, Confidential Information shall be designated as such by an appropriate
legend, such as "Kinetics Confidential" or "Applied Confidential". Confidential
Information that is disclosed orally shall be identified as confidential before
or at the time of disclosure, and shall be confirmed as confidential in a
written notice given within thirty (30) days after such oral disclosure. Such
notice must contain a reasonable summary of the orally disclosed Confidential
Information and a statement to the effect that such information is Confidential
Information.

      4 REMEDIES. I acknowledge and agree that money damages above will not be
an adequate remedy for any breach of the obligations set forth herein.
Accordingly, I agree that Kinetics may be irreparably harmed and shall be
entitled to seek injunctive relief, including a temporary or preliminary
injunction or a permanent injunction, or to any other appropriate relief to
restrain or redress any breach or threatened breach of confidentiality, in
addition to any other remedies Kinetics may have in law or equity.

      I have read, and I understand and agree to be bound by, the
confidentiality terms set forth above.
