and Technical Information.

C.   Participant agrees to provide the above information to the Laboratory to
enable full compliance with paragraph B of this Article.

D.   It is understood that the Laboratory and DOE have a need to document the
long-term economic benefit of the cooperative research being done under this
CRADA. Therefore, the Participant acknowledges a responsibility to respond to
reasonable requests, during the term of this CRADA and for two years thereafter,
from the Laboratory for pertinent information.

ARTICLE XII. PRE-PUBLICATION REVIEW

A.   The Parties agree to secure pre-publication approval from each other which
shall not be unreasonably withheld or denied beyond thirty (30) days.

B.   The Parties agree that neither will use the name of the other Party or its
employees in any promotional activity, such as advertisements, with reference to
any product or service resulting from this CRADA, without prior written approval
of the other Party.

ARTICLE XIII. COPYRIGHTS

A.   The Parties may assert copyright in any of their Generated Information.
Assertion of copyright generally means to enforce the copyright or give any
indication of an intent or right to enforce, such as by marking or securing
Federal registration.

B.   Each Party may retain ownership of copyrights in works created by its
employees or contractors. Copyrights in jointly developed works shall be jointly
owned.

                                  Page 6 of 14
<PAGE>

C.   For Generated Information, the Parties acknowledge that the Government has
for itself and others acting on its behalf, a royalty-free, non-transferable,
nonexclusive, irrevocable worldwide copyright license to reproduce, prepare
derivative works, distribute copies to the public, and perform publicly and
display publicly, by or on behalf of the Government, all copyrightable works
produced in the performance of this CRADA, subject to the restrictions this
CRADA places on publication of Proprietary Information and Protected CRADA
Information.

D.   For all copyrighted computer software produced in the performance of this
CRADA, the Party owning the copyright will provide the source code, an expanded
abstract as described in Appendix B (Abstract Format Description), the
executable object code and the minimum support documentation needed by a
competent user to understand and use the software to DOE's Energy Science and
Technology Software Center, P.O. Box 1020, Oak Ridge, TN 37831. The expanded
abstract will be treated in the same manner as Generated Information in
paragraph C of this Article.

E.   The Laboratory and the Participant agree that, with respect to any
copyrighted computer software produced in the performance of this CRADA, DOE has
the right, at the end of the period set forth in paragraph B of Article VIII
hereof and at the end of each two-year interval thereafter, to request the
Laboratory and the Participant and any assignee or exclusive licensee of the
copyrighted software to grant a nonexclusive, partially exclusive, or exclusive
license to a responsible applicant upon terms that are reasonable under the
circumstances, provided such grant does not cause a termination of any
licensee's right to use the copyrighted computer software. If the Laboratory or
the Participant or any assignee or exclusive licensee refuses such request, the
Laboratory and the Participant agree that DOE has the right to grant the license
if DOE determines that the Laboratory, the Participant, assignee, or licensee
has not made a satisfactory demonstration that it is actively pursuing
commercialization of the copyrighted computer software.

Before requiring licensing under this paragraph E, DOE shall furnish the
Laboratory/Participant written notice of its intentions to require the
Laboratory/Participant to grant the stated license, and the
Laboratory/Participant shall be allowed thirty (30) days (or such longer period
as may be authorized by the cognizant DOE Contracting Officer for good cause
shown in writing by the Laboratory/Participant) after such notice to show cause
why the license should not be required to be granted.

The Laboratory/Participant shall have the right to appeal the decision by DOE to
the grant of the stated license to the Invention Licensing Appeal Board as set
forth in paragraphs (b)-(g) of 10 CFR 781.65, "Appeals."

F.   The Parties agree to place copyright and other notices, as appropriate for
the protection of copyright, in human readable form onto all physical media, and
in digitally encoded form in the header of machine readable information recorded
on such media such that the notice will appear in human readable form when the
digital data are off-loaded or the data are accessed for display or printout.

ARTICLE XIV. REPORTING SUBJECT INVENTIONS

A.   The Parties agree to promptly disclose to each other every Subject
Invention which may be patentable or otherwise protectable under the Patent Act.
The Laboratory agrees to promptly disclose to Participant every Participating
NIS Institute Invention which is reported to the Laboratory. The Parties
acknowledge that the Laboratory and Participant will disclose their respective
Subject Inventions to DOE within two (2) months after the inventor first
discloses the Subject Invention in writing to the person(s) responsible for
patent matters of the disclosing Party.

B.   These disclosures should be in sufficiently complete technical detail to
convey a clear understanding, to the extent known at the time of the disclosure,
of the nature, purpose and operation of the Subject Invention. The disclosure
shall also identify any known actual or potential statutory bars, i.e., printed
publications describing the Subject Invention or the public use or on sale of
the Subject Invention in this country. The Parties further agree to disclose to
each other any subsequent statutory bar that occurs for a Subject Invention
disclosed but for which a patent application has not been filed. All Subject
Invention disclosures shall be marked as confidential under 35 USC 205.

ARTICLE XV. TITLE TO INVENTIONS

Whereas the Participant and Laboratory have been granted the right to elect to
retain title to Subject Inventions,

A.   Each Party shall have the first option to elect to retain title to any
Subject Invention made by its employees, and such election shall be made: (1)
for the Participant within 12 months of disclosure of the Subject Invention to
DOE or (2) for the Contractor within the time period specified in its prime
contract for electing to retain title to Subject Inventions. If a Party elects
not to retain title to any Subject Invention of its employees, then the other
Party shall have the second option to elect to retain title to the Subject
Invention.

B.   For Subject Inventions made by the Laboratory and Participating NIS
Institute Inventions, the Laboratory will provide Participant with a
non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free, field of use license required by
the Participant for its own use. Participant has a first option to negotiate for
greater rights, such as exclusive, transferable, domestic and foreign rights. If
Participant obtains the right to sublicense, the sublicenses must be
royalty-bearing, and the Participant will pay a reasonable royalty to the
Laboratory. The Laboratory will share equitably all net royalties received for
Subject Inventions and Participating NIS Institute Inventions with the
Participating NIS Institute.

C.   The Participant acknowledges that The Regents has offered to the
Participant the option to an exclusive license, for reasonable compensation and
subject to reasonable terms, in a pre-

                                  Page 8 of 14
<PAGE>

negotiated field of use related to this CRADA for any Subject Invention made in
whole or in part by The Regents' employee.

D.   The Parties acknowledge that DOE may obtain title to each Subject Invention
reported under Article XIV for which a patent application or applications are
not filed pursuant to Article XVI and for which any issued patents are not
maintained by any Party to this CRADA.

E.   The Parties acknowledge that the Government retains a nonexclusive,
nontransferable, irrevocable, paid-up license to practice or to have practiced
for or on behalf of the United States every Subject Invention under this CRADA
throughout the world.

ARTICLE XVI. FILING PATENT APPLICATIONS

A.   The Parties agree that the Party initially indicated as having an ownership
interest in any Subject Inventions shall have the first opportunity to file U.S.
and foreign patent applications; but if such Party does not file such
applications within one year after election, then the other Party to this CRADA
may file patent applications on such inventions and the Party initially having
ownership shall fully cooperate in this effort. The Parties will agree as to who
will file patent applications on any joint Subject Inventions.

B.   The Parties agree that DOE has the right to file patent applications in any
country in which neither Party desires to file a patent application for any
Subject Invention. Notification of such negative intent shall be made in writing
to the DOE Contracting Officer within three (3) months of the decision of the
non-inventing Party not to file a patent application for the Subject Invention
pursuant to Article XV, or not later than sixty (60) days prior to the time when
any statutory bar might foreclose filing of a U.S. patent application.

ARTICLE XVII. TRADEMARKS

The Parties may seek to obtain Trademark/Service Mark protection on products or
services generated under this agreement or any resulting PLA, in the United
States or foreign countries. The ownership and other rights relating to this
Trademark shall be as mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties. The Parties
hereby acknowledge that the Government shall have the right to indicate on any
similar goods or services it produces, that such goods or services were derived
from and are a DOE version of the goods or services protected by such
Trademark/Service Mark with the Trademark of the owner thereof being
specifically identified. In addition, the Government shall have the right to use
such Trademark/Service Mark in print or communication media.

ARTICLE XVIII. MASK WORKS

The Parties may seek to obtain legal protection for Mask Works fixed in
semiconductor products generated under this agreement as provided by Chapter 9
of Title 17 of the United States Code.

                                  Page 9 of 14
<PAGE>

The rights to any Mask Work covered by this provision shall be as mutually
agreed to in writing by the Parties. The Parties acknowledge that the Government
or others acting on its behalf shall retain a nonexclusive, paid-up, worldwide,
irrevocable, nontransferable license to reproduce, import, or distribute the
covered semiconductor product by or on behalf of the Government, and to
reproduce and use the Mask Work by or on behalf of the Government.

ARTICLE XIX. COST OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTION

Each Party shall be responsible for payment of all costs relating to copyright,
Trademark, and Mask Work filing, U.S. and foreign patent application filing and
prosecution, and all costs relating to maintenance fees for U.S. and foreign
patents hereunder which are owned by the Party.

ARTICLE XX. REPORTS OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY USE

The Parties agree to submit, upon request of DOE, a non-proprietary report no
more frequently than annually on efforts to utilize any Intellectual Property
arising under this CRADA.

ARTICLE XXI. DOE MARCH-IN RIGHTS

For Subject Inventions made solely by the Participant and for assignments and
exclusive licenses by the Laboratory to the Participant in Subject Inventions
made in whole or in part by the Laboratory, DOE has march-in rights in
accordance with 15 USC 3710a(b)(1)(B) and (C).

For all other rights retained or transferred by the Laboratory in Subject
Inventions of the Laboratory, DOE has march-in rights in accordance with 48 CFR
27.304-1(g).

ARTICLE XXII. U.S. COMPETITIVENESS

The Parties agree that a purpose of this program is to provide substantial
benefit to the United States economy and the economy of the participating NIS.

A.   In exchange for the benefits received under this CRADA, the Participant
therefore agrees to the following:

Products, processes, services, and improvements which are covered by
Intellectual Property developed under this CRADA shall be incorporated into the
Participant's manufacturing facilities in the United States either prior to or
simultaneously with implementation outside the United States. In any case, such
implementation outside the United States shall not result in reduction of
manufacture or use of the same products, processes, services, or improvements in
the United States.

                                 Page 10 of 14
<PAGE>

B.   The Laboratory agrees to a U.S. Industrial Competitiveness clause in
accordance with its prime contract with respect to any licensing and assignments
of its Intellectual Property arising from this CRADA, except that any licensing
or assignment of its Intellectual Property rights to the Participant shall be in
accordance with Paragraph A of this Article.

In the event it is not feasible to meet the requirements of this Article, a plan
for providing net benefit to the United States economy is attached hereto as an
integral part of the PLA.

ARTICLE XXIII. ASSIGNMENT OF PERSONNEL

A.   It is contemplated that each Party may assign personnel to the other
Party's facility as part of this CRADA. Such personnel assigned by the assigning
Party to participate in or observe the research to be performed under this CRADA
shall not, during the period of such assignments, be considered employees of the
receiving Party for any purposes.

B.   The receiving Party shall have the right to exercise routine administrative
and technical supervisory control of the occupational activities of such
personnel during the assignment period and shall have the right to approve the
assignment of such personnel and/or to later request their removal by the
assigning Party.

C.   The assigning Party shall bear any and all costs and expenses with regard
to its personnel assigned to the receiving Party's facilities under this CRADA.
The receiving Party shall bear facility costs of such assignments.

ARTICLE XXIV. FORCE MAJEURE

No failure or omission by the Laboratory or Participant in the performance of
any obligation under this CRADA shall be deemed a breach of this CRADA or create
any liability if the same shall arise from any cause or causes beyond the
control of the Laboratory or Participant, including but not limited to the
following, which, for the purpose of the CRADA, shall be regarded as beyond the
control of the Party in question: acts of God, acts or omissions of any
government or agency thereof, compliance with requirements, rules, regulations,
or orders of any governmental authority or any office, department, agency, or
instrumentality thereof, fire, storm, flood, earthquake, accident, acts of the
public enemy, war, rebellion, insurrection, riot, sabotage, invasion,
quarantine, restriction, transportation embargoes, or failures or delays in

             ISOTOPICALLY PURE SILICON FOR IMPROVED MICROELECTRONICS

A.   SCOPE OF WORK:

ELECTRONICS MATERIALS PROGRAM, LBNL

     This program (Eugene Haller, program head) has been a research leader in
exploiting scientifically and technically the properties of isotopically pure
Group IV and III-V semiconductors. The program has studied phonon properties,
solid state diffusion, local vibrational mode spectroscopy, and metal-insulator
transitions in isotopically controlled materials and structures in collaboration
with many research groups worldwide.

ISONICS CORPORATION

     Isonics is an advanced materials and technology company founded in 1992
which develops and commercializes products based on enriched stable isotopes and
high purity materials. Isonics is a publicly held company with annual sales of
$6.78 million for the fiscal year ended April 30, 1998 (49% increase from
previous fiscal year). Recent acquisitions have expanded the scope of the
company's products and based on historical performance, FY 1999 sales of $16
million are expected. Isonics is the major supplier of Depleted Zinc (DZ), used
in different forms to mitigate corrosion and cracking in nuclear power plants.
Isonics is the third largest supplier of carbon-13 for medical applications and
is further developing its supply position. The company also offers metal
isotopes used in nuclear medicine for therapy and imaging. Isonics has begun a
major R&D effect to develop isotopically enriched Si for semiconductor
applications; this CRADA is part of that effort.

KRASNOYARSK-45

     The NIS institute in this project is Krasnoyarsk-45, a former Closed
Nuclear City of the USSR which was involved in nuclear weapons design, assembly,
and plutonium storage. The isotope manufacturing technology (centrifuge) that
will be utilized in this project to make isotopically pure Si was originally
developed to make isotopically enriched materials for use in nuclear weapons.
Krasnoyarsk-45 is interested in finding non-military used for its isotope
separation technology and has already shipped sample volumes of isotopically
enriched Si to Isonics for test purposes.

B.   REASONS FOR COOPERATION

     The project involves Isonics, which is a leading supplier of isotopes to
technological markets, Berkeley Lab's Electronic Materials Program, which has
been a research leader in exploiting scientifically and technically the
properties of isotopically pure Group IV and III-V semiconductors, and
Krasnoyarsk-45, which has a unique high-volume manufacturing capacity for
silicon isotopes. These parties have a mutual interest in the project as
detailed below.

NONPROLIFERATION IMPACT AND BENEFIT TO NIS

     The NIS institute in this project is Krasnoyarsk-45, a former Closed
Nuclear City of the USSR which was involved in nuclear weapons design, assembly,
and plutonium storage. The isotope manufacturing technology that will be
utilized in this project to make isotopically pure Si was used, and could still
be used, to make isotopes used in nuclear weapons. By adapting the centrifuge
facilities at Krasnoyarsk-45 for the production of silicon isotopes, this
project will develop a market for its unique isotope manufacturing technologies
that does not involve weapons of mass destruction. The potential market for
products based on isotopically pure Si is large, and Krasnoyarsk-45 has some
unique manufacturing capabilities to provide large quantities of raw materials
for this market. The highly skilled scientists and engineers would be employed
in developing a product, which, if successful, would allow
<PAGE>

them to be a producer of silicon isotopes for the electronics industry. If
cost-effective production methods are achieved, it is possible that the NIS
could establish itself as the leading supplier of isotopically pure silicon for
semiconductor applications. This would give the NIS a role in the lucrative $6
billion international silicon manufacturing industry that it has not had to
date.

BENEFITS TO LBNL AND DOE

     This project gives the LBNL scientists access to large quantities of highly
enriched Si isotopes, which still are prohibitively expensive to buy from
non-NIS vendors. There are a number of unique and fundamental scientific
experiments that can be performed with this material, as described below. There
are direct benefits to DOE from this project related to the missions of both the
Basic Energy Sciences Office and the DOE Technology Offices. Silicon is the
major semiconductor material and devices of this material are becoming
increasingly important in the generation, distribution, and consumption of
electrical energy. The US electric power grid can be used today to a much higher
capacity than a few years ago because loop currents and subharmonic oscillations
on the power grid can now be suppressed with active silicon controlled capacitor
charge storage and phase shifters. Isotopically controlled silicon has great
promise in allowing such silicon devices to handle larger power loads.
Furthermore, the Department of Energy and other Government Departments, would
have access to isotopically purified silicon which would benefit a wide range of
fundamental and applied electronic materials and device studies.

BENEFITS TO INDUSTRIAL PARTNER (ISONICS CORP.)

     A goal of this project is the establishment of a manufacturing capability
for isotopically pure silicon. The application of isotopically pure silicon
would impact the entire semiconductor industry and allow Moore's Law to remain
valid for years to come. The potential benefits of isotopically pure silicon
will be of interest to electronic device manufacturers for the following
reasons.

o    Improved device performance and higher speed switching due to lower
     temperatures at active junctions

o    Higher reliability devices due to fewer hot spots and a lower overall
     operating temperatures

o    Lower costs due to lowered cooling requirements, allowing the use of
     smaller, less expensive packaging

o    Improved yields due to increased number of prime chips

o    The possibility of being able skip/delay next generation of manufacturing
     technology due to the performance improvements, which would vastly decrease
     capital expenditures

These advantages are available without any changes in current equipment or
process technology. Even further improvements can be realized by optimizing
devices to take advantage of the higher thermal conductivity of isotopically
enriched - 28Si. It is expected that improvements would occur in both high-
density integrated circuits (e.g. microprocessors) and in high power devices
(e.g. power transistors). A market analysis done by Isonics shows that if a
commercial source of isotopically pure Si were available, it would be of
international interest to IC manufacturers who use $6 billion worth of silicon
per year. At present, early test wafers of 28Si are being evaluated at leading
research organizations including Stanford University, Yale University, UC
Berkeley, MIT, and Lucent Technologies (Bell Laboratories). A limited number of
epitaxial wafers made to custom specifications are currently available to
integrated circuit manufacturers. Isonics has received inquires concerning
isotopically pure, high thermal conductivity Si wafers from a number of
microprocessor manufacturers including AMD, IBM, Intel, Motorola, Digital
Equipment (Compaq), Sun Microsystems, and Silicon Graphics.

C.   EXPECTED ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND GOALS

     The project will use 25 kg of 99.9% enriched 28Si, 500 g of 90% enriched
29Si, and 500 g of 90% enriched 30Si to be provided by Krasnoyarsk-45 as their
commitment. (All weights refer to the amount of Si regardless of the chemical
form, i.e., silane, trichlorosilane, etc.) The project goals are the following:

o    Manufacture 28Si epitaxial layers on natural Si wafer up to 8" (200 mm) in
     size for fabrication of IC test circuits and for thermal conductivity
     testing with the goal of establishing isotopically enriched Si as a viable
     component of the semiconductor manufacturing process.

o    Produce 0.25-1.0" diameter 28Si boules using poly-28Si as a starting
     material.
<PAGE>

o    Generate high-quality P-doped (n-type) Si material via neutron
     transmutation doping (NTD) of highly 30Si -enriched material.

o    Perform fundamental scientific measurements on isotope enriched Si
     including thermal conductivity measurements in 28Si bulk samples, self- and
     dopant diffusion and electronic transport studies in isotope superlattice
     structures, and magnetic resonance studies in 29Si -enriched material.

D.   TECHNICAL OBJECTIVES

KRASNOYARSK-45

     Krasnoyarsk-45 is expected to use its existing isotope separation
technology (centrifuge) to achieve pilot-plant-scale production of silicon
tetrafluoride (SiF4) with semiconductor grade chemical purity isotopically
enriched to greater than 99.9% 28Si and to a lesser percentage (90%) for 29Si
and 30Si. These materials would be suitable for the manufacturing of high
quality, isotopically pure single crystal boules and wafers for use in IC
manufacturing and scientific studies. The contract with Krasnoyarsk-45 will be
negotiated separately through the Civilian Development and Research Foundation
(CDRF).

ISONICS CORPORATION

     Isonics Corporation is responsible for the commercial purification of the
silicon tetrafluoride to semiconductor industry standards and production of
purified silane and other silicon compounds required by this project. Isonics
has previously used Krasnoyarsk material to manufacture IC-grade 28Si epitaxial
layers on natural Si wafer substrates. One of Isonics' objectives is to
establish this technology as a solution to the heat management problem that will
occur in the next generation of microprocessor designs.

LAWRENCE BERKELEY NATIONAL LABORATORY

     Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory will assist in the chemical analysis
of the raw materials, produce small diameter single crystals of isotopically
pure silicon, and measure the electronic and physical properties of the
isotopically enriched bulk and thin film silicon, such as lattice parameter,
thermal conductivity, optical transmittance, carrier mobilities and lifetimes,
and perform basic materials studies. Most of these will use already existing
capabilities available to the Electronic Materials Program. With technical
assistance from Isonics, LBNL will construct and operate a reactor for the
deposition of the poly-Si precursor required to make single crystals.

          Depleted Zinc (DZO)
          Carbon
          Cadmium
          Silicon

3.   The Parties agree that Electrochemical Plant will allocate its stable
isotope production capacity for the A & R identified markets and customers and
will expand the isotope products list as dictated by the marketplace.

4.   The Parties agree that a natural continuation to these contracts would be
formation of a joint venture (JV). The Parties further agree that such JV could
