Agreement as "we", "us", "our" and "ours").

I. Sale and Assignment of Accounts Receivable.

     1.1.  Purchase and Sale of  Accounts.  From time to time during the term of
this  Agreement,  you  will  offer  to sell  to us  selected  of  your  Accounts
(hereinafter defined), and we will consider purchasing,  in our sole discretion,
such  Accounts  which  are  acceptable  to us. At any one  time,  the  aggregate
outstanding  purchase  price for all Accounts which we will purchase or consider
purchasing  shall be not greater  than  $800,000.00.  As used  herein,  the term
"Accounts"  means,  collectively,  accounts,  contract rights and other forms of
obligation  arising in the ordinary course of business from the sale of goods or
rendition  of  services.  Any  purchase of  Accounts  will be  evidenced  by the
execution of an Agreement  for  Assignment  and Transfer of Accounts  Receivable
(each an "Assignment  Agreement") in the form of Exhibit A. Any Account which we
purchase is  hereinafter  called an "Assigned  Account."  Each purchase shall be
subject to the terms of this Agreement.

     1.2. Assignment Price. We will pay to you for each Assigned Account a price
(an  "Assignment  Price") equal to Eighty  percent  (80%) for EPC,  Seventy-Five
percent  (75%) for TEI,  and  Eighty  percent  (80%) for All of the  outstanding
amount of such  Account.  We will not purchase  All accounts  until the existing
security   interest  on  accounts   receivable  is  either   released  or  fully
subordinated.

     1.3.  Sale and  Assignment  of  Accounts.  You  agree to sell,  assign  and
transfer to us all of your right,  title and interest to the Assigned  Accounts,
together with (a) any notes or drafts related  thereto,  (b) the contracts under
which such Accounts arose, C your books and records  relating  thereto,  (d) the
goods (if any) giving rise to such Accounts, (e) your rights as an unpaid vendor
or lienor, (f) all rights of stoppage in transit,  replevin,  repossession,  and
reclamation,  (g) all security  therefor  and  guarantees  thereof,  and (h) all
rights to insurance  proceeds  resulting  therefrom (all of the foregoing  being
included in the term "Assigned Accounts").

     1.4.  Account  Documentation.  Upon  acceptance  by  us of  any  Assignment
Agreement,  you will deliver to us: (a) copies of all documents  evidencing  the
Accounts listed thereon and (b) such other  documentation as we require, in form
satisfactory to us in all respects.

     You will maintain all shipping  documents,  delivery  receipts and invoices
relating to Assigned  Accounts,  available for inspection and copying by us, and
you will  deliver them to us promptly  upon our  request.  Each sale of Accounts
will be reflected as a sale on your books and financial statements.

     1.5. Processing, Fee. In consideration of our purchase of Accounts from you
and our rendition of processing and monitoring services,  you agree to pay to us
a fee (the  "Processing  Fee") as set out in the rate sheet  attached  hereto as
Exhibit B. The  Processing Fee shall be due and payable at the time each Account
is collected or, if not collected in a timely  manner,  upon  repurchase.  It is
contemplated  that the  minimum  volume of accounts to be assigned to us will be
$400,000 per month (face value  amount) based upon a rolling three month average
of Accounts  assigned,  as  calculated  commencing on the first day of the first
calendar month after the date of the first  assignment of Accounts.  If you fail
to provide the  contemplated  volume of  acceptable  Accounts for us to consider
purchasing,  you will pay us a processing fee based upon the difference  between
the processing fee charged for the actual Accounts assigned and a processing fee
computed as if the minimum volume had been assigned.

     1.6.  Servicing Fee. In further  consideration  of our purchase of Accounts
from you and our rendition of processing and monitoring  services,  you agree to
pay to us a servicing fee (the  "Servicing  Fee") of three quarters of a percent
(.75%) of the face  amount of  Accounts  purchased  by us payable at the time of
purchase.

     1.7.  Payments  on  Accounts.  You shall,  and we may,  notify all  persons
obligated  to make  payments  with respect to Accounts  (collectively,  "Account
Debtors") to make all payments on or with  respect to Accounts  directly  into a
special  banking  account over which we have exclusive  dominion,  control,  and
power of  access  and  withdrawal  (the  "Collection  Account").  In  connection
therewith,  you agree to  reference  our payment  instructions  on all  invoices
submitted to Account Debtors.  In addition,  if any Account Debtor is an agency,
department,  or  instrumentality  of the  United  States  Government,  you shall
execute such forms of notice and assignment, and shall conform to all applicable
procedures,  as may be required pursuant to the Federal Assignment of Claims Act
of 1940,  as  amended,  in order to perfect  our rights in the  Accounts of such
Account Debtor. You hereby authorize us to collect and receive all payments from
all Account  Debtors,  and to facilitate our collection and receipt,  you hereby
irrevocably  appoint and  constitute  us, or any of our agents or employees,  as
your  lawful  Attorney-in-Fact  to  exercise  at any time  any of the  following
powers:  (1) to  receive,  endorse,  and deposit in our name all  payments  from
Account  Debtors;  (ii) to transmit to any party notice that you have granted to
us a security interest in the Accounts or that an Assigned Account has been sold
to us;  (iii) to  institute  any  proceedings  deemed by us  necessary to effect
collection of Accounts;  and (iv) to sign your name on any financing statements,
or any amendment or continuation  statement relating thereto with respect to any
Account.  Any act of ours as your  lawful  Attorney-in-Fact  shall not render us
liable for any acts of omission or commission,  nor for any error of judgment or
mistake of fact or law. If you receive  any  payment on any  Account,  you shall
promptly   remit  such  payment  in  the  form  received   (with  any  necessary
endorsement)  directly to us. Until so  remitted,  you will hold such payment in
trust for us separate and apart from all of your other funds.

     1.8. Remittance of Holdback and Payments on Accounts Not Assigned. Upon our
receipt of any  payment  under an  Assigned  Account,  so long as you are not in
default  hereunder,  we shall remit to you the difference,  if any,  between the
payment received by us and the Assignment Price of that Assigned  Account,  less
all unpaid Processing Fees (which amount is herein called the "Holdback"). If an
Assigned  Account is part of a group of Accounts  for which we paid an aggregate
Assignment  Price,  the Holdback  shall not be paid until an amount equal to the
aggregate  Assignment  Price  plus  Processing  Fees has been  paid to us by the
Account  Debtors  obligated  on the group of  Accounts.  Upon our receipt of any
payment under an Account  (other than an Assigned  Account),  so long as you are
not in default  hereunder,  we shall remit such  payment to you  promptly or, at
your request, apply such payment as you may direct. Remittances required by this
Paragraph 1.8 will be paid to you weekly on Friday or if not a business day, the
next succeeding business day.

additional discounts,  allowances or credits thereon. If we demand repurchase or

any Assigned Account,  or if there is a dispute concerning any Assigned Account,
you agree,  upon demand by us at our sole option,  either (I) to repurchase from
us such Assigned  Account (or the unpaid portion  thereof) for the amount of the

to any  Account.  We will not have any  liability  for any error or  omission or
delay  occurring  in the  settlement,  collection  or  payment  of any  Account.

required to perform in order to maintain the  obligation of an Account Debtor to
make  payments on an  Assigned  Account,  we may  perform,  or retain  others to
perform,  such  obligation,  at  your  sole  expense,  and  such  expense  shall
constitute part of your Obligations.

provision of any Federal or State  bankruptcy,  insolvency or other similar law,

trustee of any kind for you or any of your property; and (v) if a default occurs
under any Guaranty  Agreement executed in conjunction with this Agreement and is

in such  order  and  manner as we in our sole  discretion  shall  determine,  or
settle,  compromise  or release,  in whole or in part,  any amounts owing on the
Collateral,  or prosecute  any  proceeding  with respect to the  Collateral,  or
extend  the time of payment of any or all of the  Collateral,  or issue  credits
regarding the  Collateral,  or sell,  assign and deliver the  Collateral (or any
part  thereof),  at public  or  private  sale and  apply  the net cash  proceeds

payment  of your  Obligations  in such  order as we in our sole  discretion  may
elect, and you shall remain liable to us for any deficiency.

record to appear for you in any court of record and confess judgment against you
without prior hearing,  in favor of us for and in the amount of your Obligations
then outstanding, costs of suit and attorneys' fees in an amount equal to 10% of
the Obligations then  outstanding.  Such authority and power may be exercised on
one  or  more   occasions,   from  time  to  time,  in  the  same  or  different
jurisdictions,  as often as Assignee shall deem necessary or desirable,  for all
of which this Agreement shall be a sufficient warrant.

     8.3.  Application of  Collections;  Deficiency.  All collections we receive

your  Obligations,  we will  account  to you for the  surplus.  However,  if the

addition to every other right, power, and remedy existing  hereunder,  by law or
otherwise.

     8.5. Charge-back Not a Reassignment. The charge-back of an Assigned Account
to you shall not  constitute  a  reassignment  of such Account to you, and title
thereto and to the goods, if any,  represented thereby shall remain in us unless
such charge-back is accompanied by a simultaneous sale and assignment of another
Account as provided in  Paragraph  3.2 of this  Agreement,  or until all of your
Obligations are paid in full.

                           SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

     THIS  SUBORDINATION  AGREEMENT  (herein,  the  "Agreement")  is made by and
between  RESERVOIR  CAPITAL  CORPORATION  (herein,   'Reservoir'),   a  Maryland
corporation  and The United States Company,  Inc.  (herein,  the 'Lender'),  and
Envirometrics, Inc. (herein 'Debtor'), a Delaware Corporation.

                                    RECITALS

     A. Reservoir has extended a credit  facility to the Debtor and is receiving
from the Debtor a lien and  security  interest in the  accounts  receivable  and
other property of the Debtor.

     B. The Debtor has outstanding certain indebtedness and other obligations to
the Lender pursuant to a Security Agreement dated as of pursuant to which Lender
has a prior security  interest in the accounts  receivable and other property of
the  Debtor and has made the  appropriate  UCC  filings  to place such  security
interest of record in the appropriate jurisdictions.

     C. The Debtor has requested that Reservoir provide funding to the Debtor in
the form of accounts  receivable  factoring  pursuant  to,  among other  things,
Reservoir's form of Master Factoring  Agreement (the 'Reservoir Master Factoring
Agreement')  and form of  Assignment  and  Transfer  Agreement  (the  'Reservoir
Assignment  Agreement')  (the  Reservoir  Master  Factoring  Agreement  and  the
Reservoir  Assignment  Agreement,  as the same may from time to time be amended,
restated,   supplemented  or  otherwise   modified  being   hereinafter   called
collectively the 'Reservoir Security Agreements').

     D. In consideration  of the terms of the credit facility between  Reservoir
and the Debtor pursuant to which Reservoir will make additional  funds available
to the Debtor,  and Reservoir have agreed that the Lender shall  subordinate its
prior  security  interest in all accounts  receivable  and other property of the
Debtor as more fully  described in the attached UCC-1  financing  statement (the
'Collateral') to the lien position of Reservoir in such Collateral.

                                   WITNESSETH

     NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the  premise  and of other good and
valuable  consideration,   the  receipt  and  sufficiency  of  which  is  hereby
acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1 Subordination.

     1.1 The Lender does hereby subordinate its first lien  security interest in
the  Collateral  in favor of the lien,  operation  and  effect of the  Reservoir
Security  Agreements with respect to all indebtedness  and other  obligations of
the  Debtor to  Reservoir  under the  credit  facility  between  the  Debtor and
Reservoir, as the same may be amended from time to time.

     1.2 The Debtor consents to the filing of this Agreement by Reservoir in the
UCC records of any  jurisdiction  in which  Reservoir  determines it should file
such agreement to protect its first lien  security  interest in the  Collateral,
and does hereby covenant and agree to take such further actions and execute such
further instruments as Reservoir shall reasonably request in making any such UCC
filings.

     1.3 The  Lender  agrees  that it will not  pursue  any  remedies  under its
agreement(s) with the Debtor without the prior written consent of Reservoir.

     1.4 Without the prior written  consent of  Reservoir,  Debtor will not make
and Lender will not accept  payments of principal or interest on Lender's  debt.
Reservoir,  Debtor and Lender  agree that  weekly  payments  of  principal  plus
interest are  permitted on Friday of each week from Debtor's  available  rebates
and non-factored  cash up to but not exceeding  $50,000 principal per month plus
interest to Lender provided Debtor is not in default under the Reservoir  Master
Factoring  Agreement.  Debtor will  provide a monthly  certificate  to Reservoir
showing  the  outstanding  balance  (principal  and  interest)  on the  Debtor's
obligation to the Lender.

     2. Rights of Debtor.  The provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way
expand,  alter or modify the rights of the Debtor under the documents evidencing
their obligations to the Lender and Reservoir, respectively,  including, without
limitation,  the right to cure any default with respect thereto.  This Agreement
is for the sole and  exclusive  benefit of the parties  hereto and shall  govern
their relationship inter se as creditors of the Debtor.

     3. Modification.  The agreement(s)  between the Lender and the Debtor shall
not be modified, altered or amended without the written consent of Reservoir.

     4.  Limitations.  The rights,  remedies,  privileges  and duties  expressed
herein or in any or all of the documents  evidencing the Debtor's obligations to
the Lender and Reservoir  shall be subject to and may be limited by  bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar laws and the rules, orders, decrees and similar directives
of any court of competent authority possessing and exercising  jurisdiction with
respect  to  the  Debtor,  its  property,  or  any  guarantor  of  the  Debtor's
obligations  to "  and  Reservoir,  and  nothing  contained  in  this  Agreement
constitutes  any  assurance  by  either  party to the  other  that  the  rights,
remedies,  privileges and duties will, in all events, be available,  enforceable
or exercisable in full.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the institution of legal
proceedings  by or against the Debtor,  its  property,  or any  guarantor of the
Debtor's  obligations  to the Debtor and  Reservoir  shall not limit,  restrict,
discharge,  satisfy  or in any  manner  alter or affect  the  rights,  remedies,
privileges and duties of the parties expressed herein as between themselves.

     5.  Relationship  of  Parties.  Reservoir  and  the  Lender  shall  not  be
fiduciaries  with respect to each other and shall not be the agent of the other.
Notwithstanding  the  foregoing,  however,  until all of the  obligations of the
Debtor to Reservoir as set forth in the Reservoir  Security  Documents have been
indefeasibly  paid  in  full,  if any  of  the  Collateral  or  proceeds  of the
Collateral  shall be  received  by the Lender at any time for any  reason,  such
Collateral  or proceeds  shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and promptly
remitted to, Reservoir.
