         Securities, including such successors and assigns as acquire

         of a Registrable Security as the Holder thereof.

                  "Other Approved Holders" shall mean holders of Common Stock

                   (i) Whenever the Company proposes to register any of its
         securities under the Securities Act, either pursuant to an underwritten
         primary registration on behalf of the Company or pursuant to an
         underwritten secondary registration on behalf of a holder or holders of
         the Company's securities (other than on Form S-4, Form S-8 or any
         successor form) and the registration form to be used may be used for
         the registration of any Registrable Securities (a "Piggyback
         Registration"), the Company will give written notice to each holder of
         Registrable Securities of its intention to effect such a registration
         and will include in such registration all Registrable Securities
         (subject to, and in accordance with, the priorities set forth in
         Section 6(b)(ii) hereof), with respect to which the Company has
         received written requests for inclusion within ten (10) days after
         delivery of the Company's notice to each holder of Registrable
         Securities.

                   (ii) If the managing underwriter(s) advise the Company in
         writing, or the Board of Directors determines, that in their opinion,
         the number of Registrable Securities requested to be included in such
         registration exceeds the number which can be sold in such offering
         without adversely affecting the marketability or pricing thereof, the
         Company will include in such registration up to an aggregate amount

         Common Stock that the Company desires to register; (ii) second, any
         shares of Common Stock requested to be registered by the holder(s) of
         Common Stock pursuant to which the Registration Statement is being
         filed and to which the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder are
         receiving Piggyback Registration; and (iii) pro rata among the holders
         of Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of Registrable
         Securities which are requested to be registered hereunder.

<PAGE>

                   (iii) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the
         Company may withdraw any registration statement referred to in this
         Section 6(b) at any time in its sole discretion without thereby
         incurring any liability or expense to the holders of Registrable
         Securities.

          (c) Registration Procedures. In connection with the Company's
registration obligations pursuant to Sections 6(b) hereof, the Company will use
its commercially reasonable efforts to:

                   (i) register or qualify such Registrable Securities under the
         securities or blue sky laws of the jurisdictions as any seller
         reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts and things
         which may be reasonably necessary to permit such seller to consummate
         the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities
         owned by such seller (provided that the Company will not be required to
         (A) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would
         not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph or (B)
         consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);

                   (ii) notify each seller of Registrable Securities at any time
         when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under
         the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which
         the prospectus included in such registration statement contains an
         untrue statement of a material fact or omits any fact necessary to make
         the statements therein not misleading, and, at the request of any such
         seller, the Company will prepare a supplement or amendment to such
         prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such
         Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain any untrue
         statement of a material fact or omit to state any fact necessary to
         make the statements therein not misleading;

                   (iii) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on
         each securities exchange, if any, on which the same securities issued
         by the Company are then listed;

                   (iv) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such
         Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such
         registration statement; and

                   (v) advise each seller of such Registrable Securities
         promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of
         the issuance of any stop order by the SEC suspending the effectiveness
         of such registration statement or the initiation or threatening of any
         proceeding for such purpose and use commercially reasonable efforts to
         prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal if
         such stop order should be issued.

          (d) Material Development Election.

                  (i) Subject to Section 6(d)(ii) below, the Company shall be
         entitled, for a period of time not to exceed thirty consecutive (30)
         days (a "Suspension Period"), to postpone the filing of any
         Registration Statement otherwise required to be filed by it pursuant to
         Section 6(b) and/or request that the Holders refrain from effecting any
         public sales or distributions of their Registrable Securities if the
         Company's Board of Directors shall have reasonably determined in good
         faith and in its reasonable business judgment that such registration

                                       12

<PAGE>

         would interfere in any material respect with any financing (other than
         an underwritten secondary offering of any securities of the Company),
         acquisition, corporate reorganization or other transaction or
         development involving the Company or any subsidiary of the Company that
         in the reasonable good faith business judgment of such board is a
         transaction or development that is or would be material to the Company
         (a "Material Development Election").

                  (ii) The Board of Directors shall, as promptly as practicable,
         give the Holders written notice of any such Material Development
         Election. In the event of a determination by the Board of Directors to
         postpone the filing of a Registration Statement required to be filed
         pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, the Company shall be required to file
         such Registration Statement as soon as practicable after the Board of
         Directors of the Company shall determine, in its reasonable business
         judgment, that the filing of such Registration Statement and the
         offering thereunder will not interfere with the aforesaid material
         transaction or development, but in any event no later than the end of
         such Suspension Period. In addition, if the Board of Directors of the
         Company has requested that the Holders refrain from making public sales
         or distributions of their Registrable Securities, such board shall, as
         promptly as practicable following its determination that the Holders
         may recommence such public sales and distributions, notify such Holders
         in writing of such determination (but in any event no later than the
         end of such Suspension Period). In the event the Company shall exercise
         a Material Development Election during a period when a Registration
         Statement filed pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof is effective, the time
         period specified in Section 6(b) hereof during which such Registration
         Statement is required to be kept effective shall be extended by the
         number of days during which the Holders are prohibited by the Company
         from publicly selling or distributing their securities.

                  (iii) The Purchaser agrees that, upon receipt of any notice
         from the Company of a Suspension Period, the Purchaser shall forthwith
         discontinue disposition of shares of Common Stock covered by such
         Registration Statement or Prospectus until such Purchaser (A) is
         notified in writing by the Company that the use of the applicable
         prospectus may be resumed, (B) has received copies of a supplemental or
         amended prospectus, if applicable, and (C) has received copies of any
         additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated or deemed to
         be incorporated by reference into such prospectus.

                  (iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no more than one
         Suspension Period may occur during any twelve-month period, unless
         approved by a majority-in-interest of the then outstanding Holders (on
         a common equivalent basis). The Company shall use its best efforts to
         limit the duration and aggregate number of any Suspension Periods.

                                       13

         respect to, any and all claims, actions, demands, losses, damages,

         investigation and reasonable legal fees and expenses) ("Indemnifiable
         Costs and Expenses") to which such Holder Indemnified Person may become

         omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
         to be stated in, any such Registration Statement, any Prospectus
         contained therein or any amendment or supplement thereto or necessary

         under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the
         Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any

         material fact contained in such Registration Statement, any Prospectus

         light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, in
         each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue

         Company is not otherwise obligated to pay, such Holder Indemnified

         matter of the foregoing indemnity provisions, such indemnified party
         will, if a claim thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party
         pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (i) or (ii) of this Section
         7(a) or paragraph (i) or (ii) of Section 6(f), notify the indemnifying
         party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the
         indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may
         have to an indemnified party otherwise than under paragraph (i) or (ii)
         of this Section 7(a) or paragraph (i) or (ii) of Section 6(f), and
         shall not relieve the indemnifying party from liability under this
         Section 7(a) or Section 6(f) unless such indemnifying party is
         materially prejudiced by such omission. In case such action is brought
         against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of
         the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall have the right
         to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with
         any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense
         thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified
         party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified
         party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the
         indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party
         pursuant to the provisions of such paragraph (i) or (ii) of this
         Section 7(a) or paragraph (i) or (ii) of Section 6(f) for any legal or
         other expense subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in
         connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
         investigation. No indemnifying party shall be liable to an indemnified
         party for any settlement of any action or claim without the consent of
         the indemnifying party. No indemnifying party will consent to entry of
         any judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an
         unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to
         such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to
         such claim or litigation and no settlement can have non-monetary
         remedies.

                  (iv) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in
         subsection (i) or (ii) of this Section 7(a) or in subsection (i) or
         (ii) of Section 6(f) is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be
         unavailable to a party to be indemnified with respect to any
         Indemnifiable Costs and Expenses, then each indemnifying party under
         any such subsection, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
         thereunder, hereby agrees to contribute to the amount paid or payable
         by such indemnified party as a result of Indemnifiable Costs and
         Expenses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative
         fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified
         party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions,
         acts, facts matters or circumstances which resulted in such
         Indemnifiable Costs and Expenses, as well as any other relevant
         equitable considerations. To the extent applicable to Section 6(f)
         hereof, the relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
         indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other
         things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material
         fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact
         relates to information supplied by the indemnifying party or by the
         indemnified party and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access
         to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or
         omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
         meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
         contribution hereunder from any Person who was not guilty of such
         fraudulent misrepresentation.

         (b) Entire Agreement; Survival of Provisions. This Agreement
constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the transactions
contemplated hereby and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings with
respect thereto, whether written or oral. All of the covenants of the parties
made herein shall remain operative and in full force and effect pursuant to
their respective terms regardless of acceptance of the Securities and the
Warrant Shares, and payment therefor. The representations and warranties set
forth herein shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement until
the first anniversary of the date hereof (the "Expiration Date"), and shall in
no way be affected by any investigation of the subject matter thereof made by or
on behalf of the Purchaser or the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding
sentence, any representation or warranty in respect of which an indemnity may be
sought hereof shall survive the time at which it would otherwise terminate
pursuant to the preceding sentence, if a claim for indemnification shall have
been given to the party against whom such indemnity may be sought prior to the
Expiration Date. The representations, warranties, agreements and covenants made
in the Agreement shall be deemed to have been relied upon by the parties hereto.

         (c) No Waiver; Modifications in Writing. No failure or delay by a party
in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver
thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or
remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or remedy. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein with
respect to any right of indemnification, the remedies provided for herein are
cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies that may be available to any
party at law or in equity or otherwise. No waiver of or consent to any departure
by a party from any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless signed
in writing by the parties entitled to the benefit thereof. No amendment,
modification or termination of any provision of this Agreement shall be
effective unless signed in writing by all parties. Any amendment, supplement or
modification of or to any provision of this Agreement, any waiver of any

                                       18

provision of this Agreement, and any consent to any departure from the terms of

                                PRODUCT WARRANTY
                                ----------------

A.1 Company warrants that each item of Equipment sold to Customer hereunder
shall be free from defects in workmanship and materials, for a period of ONE
YEAR (the "Warranty Period") from the Company's issuance of the Certificate of
Completion under normal use and service during the Warranty Period.

A.2 The product warranty set forth in subparagraph A.1 above will only apply if:
(i) the Equipment has at all times been operated, by the Company or a principal
or employee of the Customer who has been trained in the use and operation of the
Plasma Converter System and has been provided a Certification of that fact by
the Company, in accordance with Company's operating instructions delivered to
Customer; (ii) no alterations or substitutions have been made by Customer to the
Equipment (unless such alteration or substitution was approved in writing by
Company before work was begun by Customer); (iii) such Equipment was installed
with oversight by Company or Company's designee. FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH THIS
SECTION A.2 WILL VOID THE WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN EXHIBITS A AND C.

A.3 The product warranty set forth in subparagraph A.1 above will not apply to
defects caused by: (i) damage caused by abrasion or corrosion; (ii) normal wear
and tear; (iii) use by Customer contrary to Company's operating instructions
delivered to Customer; (iv) use by Customer in processing material for which
these specific systems were not intended by the Company; (v) failure by Customer
to obtain, install and use any safety devices recommended by Company; or (vi)
Customer or any third party.

A.4 If Customer believes that any item of Equipment sold to Customer hereunder
does not meet the product warranty set forth in A.1 above during the Warranty
Period, then Customer shall as soon as practicable notify Company thereof, in
writing, and Customer shall make such item available to Company for its
inspection. IN NO EVENT MAY CUSTOMER ASSERT A WARRANTY CLAIM HEREUNDER AS TO ANY
CLAIMED DEFECT IN AN ITEM OF EQUIPMENT AFTER THE EXPIRATION OF THE EARLIER OF
THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER CUSTOMER DISCOVERS SUCH DEFECT IN THE ITEM OF EQUIPMENT
OR THE EXPIRATION OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD. ANY PRODUCT WARRANTY CLAIM ASSERTED
AFTER EXPIRATION OF THE EARLIER OF THE ABOVE TIME PERIODS SET FORTH IN THE
PRECEDING SENTENCE WILL BE BARRED. All warranty claims must include
documentation of applicable maintenance performance in accordance with
manufacturer's recommendations and 12 hours of logged operating data (written
and electronic) immediately preceding the claimed warranty failure. Upon receipt
of any such notification, Company shall, within thirty (30) days, investigate
any such warranty claim by Customer to determine the nature and cause of the
alleged warranty defect(s), if any, and notify the Customer of the results of
its investigation. If this investigation establishes the existence of the
alleged defect(s) and that defective material or workmanship of the Company is
the cause, then Company will, at its option, either repair the defective
material or correct the defective workmanship, at Company's expense, or return
the amount of the purchase price already paid for such item of Equipment to
Company. Any item(s) of Equipment to be repaired by Company under this Paragraph
shall ordinarily be repaired at the premises of Company, unless otherwise agreed
by the Parties in writing.

will be a determination by a court of competent jurisdiction for the obligation
of the Company to the Customer to become effective.
