         2. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF RXFA. RXFA and the RXFA
Managing Member(s), jointly and severally, represent, warrant and covenant as
follows, except to the extent set forth on the RXFA Schedule of Exceptions:

                  (a) RXFA is, and on the Effective Date will be, a duly
         organized and a validly existing Corporation in good standing under the
         laws of the State of Delaware and in such other jurisdictions as it is
         qualified to do business. All Outstanding RXFA shares, on the Effective
         Date, will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
         nonassessable. There are no, and on the Effective Date there will be
         no, issued or outstanding rights, options or warrants to purchase any
         equity interest in RXFA, including but not limited to any other issued
         or outstanding securities of any nature convertible into or exercisable
         or exchangeable for equity interests of RXFA, as applicable. The
         Outstanding RXFA Equity Interests have all been issued pursuant to an
         appropriate exemption from the registration requirements of the
         Securities Act and from any applicable registration requirements of the
         various states.

                  (b) RXFA does not have, and on the Effective Date will not
         have, any subsidiaries, nor does it own any direct or indirect interest
         in any other business entity.

                  (c) RXFA has, and on the Effective Date will have, full power
         and authority to enter into this Agreement and, subject to any required
         shareholder or other third party approval in accordance with the laws
         of the State of Delaware, to consummate the transactions contemplated
         hereby. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby have
         been duly approved prior to the Closing, by RXFA shareholders.

                  (d) RXFA is qualified or licensed as a foreign limited
         liability company in all jurisdictions where its business or ownership
         of assets so requires, except where the failure to be qualified or
         licensed would not have a material adverse effect on the business of
         RXFA. The business of RXFA does not require it to be registered as an
         investment company or investment adviser; as such terms are defined
         under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Investment Advisers
         Act of 1940, each as amended.

                  (e) The financial statements of RXFA, consisting of its
         Balance Sheets as of RXFA's fiscal year-end June 30, 2006 and 2005, its
         Statement of Income (Loss) for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2006 and
         2005, its Statement of Member's Equity for the two years ended June 30,
         2006 and 2005, and its Statements of Cash Flows for the fiscal years
         ended June 2006 and 2005, have been audited by independent public
         accountants and fairly present the financial position, results of
         operations and other information purported to be shown therein, at the
         date and for the respective periods to which they apply. The interim
         financial statements of RXFA, consisting of its Balance Sheet as of
         December 31, 2006 and its Statements of Income (Loss) for the six
         months ended December 31, 2006, fairly present the financial position,
         results of operations and other information purported to be shown
         therein of RXFA, at the date and for the respective periods to which
         they apply. All such financial statements have been prepared in
         conformity with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
         applied throughout the periods involved, and have been adjusted for all
         normal and recurring accruals. All such financial statements (together,
         the "FINANCIAL STATEMENTS") have been delivered to Diamond and are
         incorporated herein and made a part hereof.

                  (f) There has not been, and on the Effective Date there will
         not have been in the aggregate, any material adverse change in the
         condition, financial or otherwise, of RXFA from that set forth in the
         Financial Statements.

                                       2
<PAGE>

                  (g) Except for transactions occurring in the ordinary course
         of business, there has not been, and on the Effective Date there will
         not have been, any transactions involving RXFA since December 31, 2002
         in an amount in excess of $25,000.

                  (h) There are, and on the Effective Date will be, no
         liabilities (including, but not limited to, tax liabilities) or claims
         against RXFA (whether such liabilities or claims are contingent or
         absolute, direct or indirect, matured or unmatured) not appearing on
         the Financial Statements, other than liabilities incurred in the
         ordinary course of business or taxes incurred on earnings since
         December 31, 2006.

                  (i) All federal, state, county and local income, excise,
         property and other tax or information returns required to be filed by
         RXFA have been filed, and all required taxes, fees or assessments have
         been paid or an adequate reserve therefore has been established in the
         Financial Statements. The federal income tax returns and state and
         foreign income tax returns of RXFA have not been audited by the IRS or
         any other taxing authority within the past five (5) years. Neither the
         IRS nor any state, local or other taxing authority has proposed any
         additional taxes, interest or penalties with respect to RXFA or any of
         their operations or businesses. There are no pending, or to the
         knowledge of RXFA, threatened, tax claims or assessments, and there are
         no pending, or to the knowledge of RXFA, threatened, tax examinations
         by any taxing authorities. RXFA has not given any waivers of rights
         (which are currently in effect) under applicable statutes of
         limitations with respect to the federal income tax returns of RXFA, for
         any year.

                  (j) Except as provided for in the Financial Statements, RXFA,
         has, and on the Effective Date will have, good and marketable title to
         all of its furniture, fixtures, equipment and other assets as set forth
         in the Financial Statements, and such assets are owned free and clear
         of all security interests, pledges, liens, restrictions and
         encumbrances of every kind and nature, except as set forth in the
         Financial Statements.

                  (k) RXFA is the owner of its inventory as set forth in the
         Financial Statements and has good and marketable title thereto.

                  (l) The accounts receivable as set forth in the Financial
         Statements represent amounts due for goods sold or services rendered by
         RXFA in the ordinary course of business and, except as reserved for in
         the Financial Statements, are collectable in the ordinary course of
         business.

                  (m) A copy of all agreements, contracts, arrangements,
         understandings and commitments, whether written or oral, to which RXFA
         is or on the Effective Date will be, a party, or from which RXFA will
         receive substantial benefits and which are material to RXFA
         (collectively, "CONTRACTS"), have been delivered to Diamond and DMECA.
         A list of such Contracts is set forth on the RXFA Schedule of
         Exceptions, which such schedule shall be amended at the Effective Date
         to reflect any Contracts entered into between the date hereof and the
         Effective Date. RXFA is not now, nor will be on the Effective Date, in
         material default under any Contract. The validity and enforceability
         of, and rights of RXFA contained in, each such Contract shall not be
         adversely effected by the Merger or the transactions contemplated
         hereby or any actions taken in furtherance hereof.

                                       3

                  (n) There are, and on the Effective Date there will be, no
         legal, administrative, arbitral or other proceedings, claims, actions
         or governmental investigations of any nature pending, or to RXFA's
         knowledge, as applicable, threatened, involving RXFA, individually or
         in the aggregate in which an unfavorable determination could result in
         suspension or termination of RXFA's business or authority to conduct
         such business in any jurisdiction or could result in the payment by
         RXFA of more than $25,000 individually or $100,000 in the aggregate, or
         challenging the validity or propriety of the transactions contemplated
         by this Agreement and, to RXFA's best knowledge, there is no reasonable
         basis for any such proceeding, claim, action or governmental
         investigation. RXFA is not a party to any order, judgment or decree
         which will, or might reasonably be expected to, materially adversely
         affect the business, operations, properties, assets or financial
         condition of RXFA.

                  (o) Since December 31, 2006 there have been, and through the
         Effective Date there will be (i) no bonuses or extraordinary
         compensation to any of the officers, Managing Member or Members, (ii)
         no loans made to or any other transactions with any of the officers,
         Managing Member or Members or their families, and (iii) no dividends or
         other distributions declared or paid by RXFA.

                  (p) RXFA has, and on the Effective Date will have, maintained
         casualty and liability policies and other insurance policies with
         respect to its business which are appropriate and customary for
         businesses similar in size, industry and risk profile. Copies of all of
         the policies of insurance and bonds presently in force with respect to
         RXFA, including without limitation those covering properties,
         buildings, machinery, equipment, worker's compensation, officers and
         directors and public liability, have been delivered to Diamond and
         DMECA. All such insurance is outstanding and in full force and effect,
         with all premiums thereon duly paid, and RXFA has not received any
         notice of cancellation of any such policies.

                  (q) RXFA has, and on the Effective Date will have, no patents,
         patent applications, trademarks, trademark registrations or
         applications, trade names, copyrights, copyright registrations or
         applications, or other intellectual property. RXFA does not have
         knowledge of any infringements by it of any third party's intellectual
         property.

                  (r) Since its inception, RXFA has, and on the Effective Date
         will have, in all material respects operated its business and conducted
         its affairs in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and
         regulations, except where the failure to so comply did not have and
         would not be expected to have a material adverse effect on its business
         or property.

                  (s) There are, and on the Effective Date there will be, no
         loans, leases or other Contracts outstanding between RXFA and any of
         its officers, Managing Member or any other Member or any person related
         to or affiliated with any such officers or Managing Member or any other
         Member.

                  (t) During the past five year period neither RXFA, nor any of
         its officers or Managing Member, nor any person intended upon
         consummation of the Merger to become an officer or director of either
         RXFA or Diamond or any successor entity or subsidiary, has been the
         subject of:

         which do not relate to driving while intoxicated or driving under the

         This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by RXFA and
         constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of RXFA,
         enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof, except as
         may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or
         similar laws of general application relating to or affecting the
         enforcement of rights hereunder or general principles of equity
         (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a
         proceeding in equity or at law).

                  (w) RXFA knows of no person who rendered any service in
         connection with the introduction of Diamond, DMECA or RXFA to any of
         the other companies, and they know of no claim by anyone for a
         "finder's fee" or similar type of fee in connection with the Merger and
         the other transactions contemplated hereby.

                  (x) No employees of RXFA are on strike or to the best of their
         knowledge threatening any strike or work stoppage. RXFA does not have
         any obligations under any collective bargaining or labor union
         agreements nor is RXFA involved in any material controversy with any of
         its employees or any organization representing any of its employees.

                  (y) None of the information supplied or to be supplied by or
         about RXFA for inclusion or incorporation by reference in any
         information supplied to holders of Diamond Common Stock concerning the
         Merger, contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
         state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
         order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances
         under which they are made, not misleading.

                  (z) The execution and delivery by RXFA of this Agreement, the
         consummation and performance of the transactions herein contemplated,
         and compliance with the terms of this Agreement by RXFA will not
         conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute or give rise to a
         default under (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust or other
         agreement, instrument or Contract to which RXFA is now a party or by
         which it or any of its assets or properties are bound; (ii) the
         Articles of Organization or the Operating Agreement of RXFA, in each
         case as amended; or (iii) any law, order, rule, regulation, writ,
         injunction, judgment or decree of any government, governmental
         instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over
         RXFA or any of its business or properties wherein such breach could
         have a material adverse effect on RXFA or any of its business or
         properties.

                  (aa) To the best of its knowledge, RXFA is not in violation of
         any federal, state or local environmental law or regulation.

                  (b) DMECA has been organized solely for the purpose of

    UNLVRF
      Subcontract #RF-07-SHGR-013 

    Altairnano
      Technologies, Inc.

    Scope
      of Work

    

    

    A.  PROJECT
      OBJECTIVES

    

    The
      primary project objective is to develop thin film metal oxide photoanode
      material useful for photoelectrochemical (PEC) production of hydrogen Once
      the
      metal oxide composition is identified and a thin film anode developed, it can
      be
      used to produce hydrogen directly from water in stand-alone tandem cells or
      multi-junction hybrid photoelectrochemical 1 photovoltaic cells using sunlight
      as the energy source.

    

    The
      primary objective is sub-divided into 3 parts:

    

    
      	·   
               	
              Identify
                a suitable metal oxide composition for the photoanode. No metal oxide
                material suitable to the task is yet identified. (Tasks 1.2 and
                1.3)

            

    

    

    
      	·  
                	
              Optimize
                the photochemical efficiency of the metal oxide by varying chemical
                composition, crystallite morphology, and thin film thickness. (Tasks
                1.3
                and 1.4)

            

    

    

    
      	·  
                	
              And
                finally, develop synthesis methods and deposition techniques that
                are
                efficient, practical, and economically feasible for cost competitive
                large
                scale hydrogen production. (Tasks 2 and
                3)

            

    

    

    

    B.  PROJECT
      SCOPE

    

    It
      has
      been deemed of interest to develop high-efficiency, low-cost,
      photoelectrochemical (PEC) systems to produce hydrogen from water using sunlight
      as the energy source. The main thrust of this work has been to develop
      integrated tandem photoelectrodes or stand-alone multi-junction hybrid
      photoelectrochemical 1 photovoltaic cells comprised of low-cost semiconducting,
      catalytic thin films of various metal oxides. Numerous approaches involving
      a
      variety of materials and methods have been explored, but none to date have
      successfully met both the efficiency and stability criteria. The high voltage
      required to dissociate water (1.23 V), and the corrosiveness of aqueous
      electrolytes have been the major technical hurdles.

    

    Candidate
      materials need to be active electrocatalysts that utilize the shorter
      wavelengths of the solar spectrum and are stable in corrosive aqueous
      electrolytes. They must be efficient, practical, and economically feasible
      in
      that they are produced from inexpensive precoursor materials, and can be
      deposited easily on low cost substrates. Their stability must be demonstrated
      in
      aqueous electrolytes for the duration of the anticipated lifetime of the
      product. Front photoanode coatings must also be deposited thin enough to allow
      the longer wavelengths to pass through to a back cell thereby generating
      electric current to drive the hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions at the
      respective electrodes.

    C. TASKS
      TO BE PERFORMED

    

    Task
      1.3 Implementation of Low Temperature Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition
      (PECVD) Process

    

    Based
      on
      trial depositions of iron oxide thin films by PECVD and the ease with which
      the
      desired depositions were achieved demonstrated the process will allow for more
      consistent and efficient thin film depositions. Altair will implement this
      process for the fabrication of selected metal oxide and chalcopyrite thin film
      electrodes in collaboration with UNLV. UCSB, NREL and UH.

    

    Once
      the
      PECVD process is optimized, Altairnano will produce doped Fe203
      films at
      low temperature for round-robin electrode testing. Altairnano will determine
      the
      optimal iron, indium, gallium, silicon, and titanium 'dopant' precursors
      suitable for producing films by the low temperature PECVD process. Selected
      films will undergo characterization and testing established by the standardized
      round-robin testing methods

    

    Subtask
      1.3.2 Fabrication of Doped Iron Oxide (Fe203)
      Electrodes by Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis (USP)

    

    Altairnano
      will continue to use the existing ultrasonic sonic spray pyrolysis equipment
      to
      deposit Fe203
      films on
      conducting substrates. The process will be used to evaluate the effects of
      gallium, silicon, titanium, indium and various other 'dopants' on
      photoelectrochemical performance of thin film electrodes. Films produced by
      USP
      will also be used to optimize the characterization and testing procedures for
      round-robin testing of metal oxide electrodes. Altairnano will collaborate
      as
      appropriate with UCSB in synthesis techniques for iron-based thin film
      compounds.

    

    Task
      1.4 Characterization and Photoelectrochemical (PEC) Testing of Metal Oxide
      Thin
      Film Electrodes

    

    Altairnano
      will establish standardized characterization and photoelectrochemical
      measurement techniques
      to help initiate round-robin standardized testing of PEC materials and devices
      produced by
      HNEI,
      NREL, UC Santa Barbara, and Altairnano.

    

    Subtask
      1.4.1 Thin Film Microstructure Characterization

    

    Characterizations
      performed at Altairnano will include X-ray diffraction (XRD) for determining
      phase purity, variable angle spectroscopic ellipsometry (VASE) for measuring
      optical properties, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) for examining the
      surface morphology. Characterizations will be performed on sample materials
      provided by both Altairnano (Fe203)
      and
      other metal oxides synthesized by SHGR-PEC participants.

    

    Subtasks
      1.4.3 and 1.4.4 Thin Film Opto-electronic and Photoelectrochemical
      Testing

    

    The
      photochemical properties of electrodes will be determined using Altairnano's
      Solar Simulator PEC
      I-V
      curve measurement system and Spectral Response/Quantum Efficiency measurement
      system. Altairnano will fabricate and validate a new sample mount for the I-V
      and Quantum efficiency measurements. New counter/reference electrode
      combinations electrode will be validated for different electrolyte media. Once
      the improvements to the measurement systems are completed Altairnano will
      establish photoelectrochemical test protocols for round-robin testing of films
      provided by SHGR-PEC participants.

    Altairnano
      will continue to make design improvements to the sample mount and test cell
      for
      the I-V and Quantum efficiency measurements. Altairnano will validate
      counter/reference electrode combinations electrode for different electrolyte
      media. Once the improvements to the measurement systems are completed Altairnano
      will establish standards for simulated sunlight and develop new electrochemical
      interface characterization protocols for round-robin testing.

    SC-7
      UNALLOWABLE COSTS AND LOBBYING ACTIVITIES

    

    Subcontractors
      are cautioned to carefully review the allowable cost and other provisions
      applicable to expenditures under their particular award instruments. If
      financial assistance funds are spent for purposes or in amounts inconsistent
      with the allowable cost or any other provisions governing expenditures in the
      award instrument, the government may pursue a number of remedies against the
      recipient, including, in appropriate circumstances, recovery of such funds,
      termination of the award, suspension or debarment of the recipient from future
      awards, and criminal prosecution for false statements. The UNLVRF is subject
      to
      the provisions of OMB Circular No. A-122, Cost Principles for Non-Profit
      organizations.

    

    All
      cost
      reimbursement sub-awards, including subcontracts, are subject to those Federal
      cost principles applicable to the SUBCONTRACTOR. OMB Circulars are available
      at
httl2a/www.whitehouse.govlomb/circulars.

     

    Particular
      care should be taken by the SUBCONTRACTOR to comply with the provisions
      prohibiting the expenditure of funds for lobbying and related activities.
      Financial assistance awards may be used to describe and promote the
      understanding of scientific and technical aspects of specific technologies,
      but
      not to encourage or support political activities such as the collection and
      dissemination of information related to potential, planned, or pending
      legislation.

    

    To
      assist
      the SUBCONTRACTOR in complying with the lobbying provisions applicable to this
      agreement, the Department of Energy has developed a lobbying brochure entitled
      "What You
      Should
      Know as
      a
      Federal Employee,
      Contractor, Cooperative Agreement Participant, or Grantee, " which
      provides an overview of lobbying policies. The brochure is available on the
      DOE
      financial Assistance Home Page at: http:/Iprofessionalspr,doe.gov/
      Click on
      "Regulations and Guidance" under "Financial Assistance
      Regulations."

    

    SC-8
      PERMITS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

    

    SUBCONTRACTOR

      for
      complying with applicable federal, state, and municipal laws, codes, and
      regulations in connection with the execution of the work hereunder. The
      SUBCONTRACTOR shall take proper safety and health precautions to protect the
      workers, the public, the environment, and property.

    

    SC-9
      NOTICE REGARDING THE PURCHASE OF AMERICAN-MADE EQUIPMENT AND
      PRODUCTS

    

    It
      is the
      sense of the Congress that, to the greatest extent practicable, all equipment
      and products purchased with funds made available under Grant DE-FG36-03GO13062
      should be American-made.

    

    SC-10
      PUBLIC DISCLOSURE

    

    SUBCONTRACTOR
      shall not make publicity releases in connection with this Subcontract without
      prior review and approval of the UNLVRF. Proposed publicity releases shall
      be
      submitted to the UNLVRF Administrative Contact, as shown in Article 2, for
      such
      review and approval.

    SUBCONTRACTOR
      is encouraged to publish or otherwise make publicly available the results of
      the

    SC-11
      NATIONAL SECURITY: CLASSIFIABLE RESULTS ORIGINATING UNDER AN
      AWARD

    

    This
      award is intended for unclassified, publicly releasable research. Subcontractor
      will not be granted access to classified information. DOE does not expect that
      the results of the research project will involve classified information. Under
      certain circumstances, however, a classification review of information
      originated under this award may be required. The Department may review research
      work generated under this award at any time to determine if it requires
      classification.

    

    Executive
      Order 12958 (60 Fed. Reg. 19,825 (1995)) states that basic scientific research
      information not clearly related to the national security shall not be
      classified. Nevertheless, some information concerning (among other things)
      scientific, technological, or economic matters relating to national security
      or
      cryptology may require classification. If you originate information during
      the
      course of this award that you believe requires classification under this
      Executive Order, you must promptly notify the Technical point of contact
      identified in Article 2 of this Subcontract for further
      instructions.

    

    If
      you
      originate information concerning the production or utilization of special
      nuclear material (i.e., plutonium, uranium enriched in the isotope 233 or 235,
      and any other material so determined under section 51 of the Atomic Energy
      Act)
