                    LICENSE RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT

                  This LICENSE RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL AGREEMENT (this
"Agreement") is entered into as of the 3rd day of June, 1999, by and between
Venturi Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Venturi"), and Greenwich ,
A.G., a German company ("Greenwich"). Venturi and Greenwich are sometimes
collectively referred to as the "Parties."

                                    RECITALS

         WHEREAS, Venturi has developed and is utilizing in certain areas of the
United States a proprietary method of cleaning carpets known as the
VenturiCleanSM System;

         WHEREAS, Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Parties
have entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement pursuant to which Greenwich is
purchasing 1,600,000 shares of Venturi Common Stock for $2,000,000;

         WHEREAS, as partial consideration for the purchase of Common Stock by
Greenwich, Venturi has agreed to grant to Greenwich a right of first refusal as
to any license or franchise rights relating to the VenturiCleanSM System in the
European countries of Germany, Austria, Switzerland, the Czech Republic,
Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg (the "Selected European Nations");

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and conditions
contained herein, the Parties agree as follows:

         1.       RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.

                  (a)      If, during the term hereof, Venturi receives a bona
fide offer in writing (the "Offer") from any third party ("Third Party") to
acquire any license or franchise rights utilizing the VenturiCleanSM System
anywhere within the Selected European Nations (the "Rights"), and if Venturi
desires to accept the Offer, Venturi shall give prompt written notice ("Notice")
of the desire to accept the Offer to Greenwich together with a copy of the
Offer. The Notice shall constitute an irrevocable offer by Venturi to sell any
or all of the Rights to Greenwich at the price and on the terms and conditions
set forth in the Offer for a period of thirty (30) days.

                  (b)      Greenwich shall have the right, but not the
obligation, within thirty (30) days after the date of the Notice, to acquire all
or part of the Rights by providing notice of that election to Venturi. Any such
acquisition of Rights by Greenwich shall be at a price and on terms and
conditions no less favorable to Venturi than those set forth in the Offer. If
all or any part of the Rights are not acquired by Greenwich, the portion of such
Rights not acquired may be sold or transferred to the Third Party at the price
and on the same terms and conditions as provided for in the Offer.


<PAGE>

                  (c)      If the Rights are not purchased by the Third Party
within one hundred twenty (120) days from the date of receipt of the Offer by
Venturi, the Offer shall be deemed to have expired and the Rights must be
re-offered to Greenwich pursuant to the procedures in this Section 1 if Venturi
then wishes to accept the Offer.

                  (d)      Any transfer or purported transfer of the Rights or
any interest therein shall be null and void unless the terms and conditions of
this Agreement are strictly observed and followed, or such terms and conditions
are waived by Greenwich.

         2.       TERM AND TERMINATION. This Agreement will commence on the date
hereof and remain in effect for a period of ten (10) years. If either party
breaches a material provision of this Agreement, the other party may terminate
this Agreement upon thirty (30) days notice, unless the breach is cured within
the thirty (30) day notice period.

         3.       REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Venturi represents and
warrants to Greenwich as follows with respect to the Rights:

         (a)      LEGAL AUTHORITY. Venturi is a corporation organized and in
good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada, and has full authority to

made, and will not make, any commitments to others inconsistent with or in
derogation of this Agreement.

         (b)      AUTHORIZATION AND APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT. All actions required
to be taken by Venturi relating to the signing of this Agreement have been taken
prior to the date hereof.

         (c)      EXECUTION AND PERFORMANCE OF AGREEMENT. The performance of

proceeding, against Venturi relating to the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and Venturi does not know or have any reason to be aware of any basis

illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions had never been contained herein
unless the deletion of such provision or provisions would result in such a
