Buyers shall purchase from the Company,  convertible  debentures  (collectively,
the "Debentures") in the aggregate principal amount of Four Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($4,500,000), plus accrued interest, which are convertible into
shares of the  Company's  common  stock,  par value $.01 per share (the  "Common

      2.    Up to  1,025,000  shares of Common  Stock to be issued to the Buyers
            upon exercise of the Warrant (the "Warrant Shares").

      This letter shall serve as our irrevocable  authorization and direction to

      1. Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares.

            a.    Instructions Applicable to Transfer Agent. With respect to the

                  upon  delivery to the Transfer  Agent of a properly  completed
                  and duly executed Conversion Notice (the "Conversion  Notice")
                  in the form attached as Exhibit A to the Debentures (a copy of
                  which is also  attached  hereto as Exhibit III), or a properly
                  completed and duly  executed  Exercise  Notice (the  "Exercise
                  Notice")  in the form  attached as Exhibit A to the Warrant (a
                  copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit IV),  delivered to
                  the Transfer  Agent by David  Gonzalez,  Esq., as escrow agent
                  (the "Escrow Agent") on behalf of the Company. Upon receipt of
                  a Conversion Notice or an Exercise Notice,  the Transfer Agent
                  shall within three (3) Trading Days  thereafter  (i) issue and
                  surrender to a common  carrier for  overnight  delivery to the
                  address as specified in the Conversion  Notice or the Exercise

                  its  designees,  for the  number of shares of Common  Stock to
                  which  the  Buyer  shall  be  entitled  as  set  forth  in the
                  Conversion  Notice or  Exercise  Notice or (ii)  provided  the
                  Transfer  Agent  is  participating  in  The  Depository  Trust
                  Company ("DTC") Fast Automated  Securities  Transfer  Program,
                  upon the request of the Buyers,  credit such aggregate  number
                  of  shares  of  Common  Stock to  which  the  Buyers  shall be
                  entitled to the Buyer's or their  designees'  balance  account
                  with DTC through its Deposit  Withdrawal At Custodian ("DWAC")
                  system  provided  the  Buyer  causes  its  bank or  broker  to
                  initiate the DWAC  transaction.  For purposes  hereof "Trading
                  Day" shall mean any day on which the Nasdaq Market is open for
                  customary trading.

            b.    The  Company  hereby  confirms to the  Transfer  Agent and the
                  Buyer that certificates representing the Conversion Shares and
                  the  Warrant  Shares  shall  not bear any  legend  restricting
                  transfer  and  should  not be  subject  to  any  stop-transfer
                  restrictions and shall otherwise be freely transferable on the
                  books and records of the Company; provided that counsel to the
                  Company delivers (i) the Notice of Effectiveness  set forth in
                  Exhibit I  attached  hereto  and (ii) an opinion of counsel in
                  the form set forth in Exhibit II attached hereto,  and that if
                  the Conversion Shares,  Warrant Shares and the Interest Shares
                  are not  registered for sale under the Securities Act of 1933,
                  as amended,  then the certificates for the Conversion  Shares,
                  Warrant  Shares and Interest  Shares shall bear the  following
                  legend:

                  "THE SECURITIES  REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN
                  REGISTERED  UNDER THE SECURITIES  ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED,  OR
                  APPLICABLE  STATE  SECURITIES  LAWS. THE SECURITIES  HAVE BEEN
                  ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD,
                  TRANSFERRED  OR  ASSIGNED  IN  THE  ABSENCE  OF  AN  EFFECTIVE

                  ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED,  OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS,
                  OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL,  IN A FORM REASONABLY  ACCEPTABLE TO
                  THE COMPANY,  THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT
                  OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO
                  RULE 144 UNDER SAID ACT."

            c.    In the event that  counsel to the Company  fails or refuses to
                  render an opinion as required to issue the  Conversion  Shares
                  or  the  Warrant  Shares  in  accordance  with  the  preceding
                  paragraph  (either  with or without  restrictive  legends,  as
                  applicable),   then  the  Company  irrevocably  and  expressly
                  authorizes  counsel to the Buyer to render such  opinion.  The
                  Transfer  Agent  shall  accept and be entitled to rely on such
                  opinion for the purposes of issuing the Conversion Shares.

            d.    Instructions  Applicable  to  Escrow  Agent.  Upon the  Escrow
                  Agent's receipt of a properly  completed  Conversion Notice or
                  Exercise  Notice and the Aggregate  Exercise Price (as defined
                  in the  Warrant),  the  Escrow  Agent  shall,  within  one (1)
                  Trading  Day  thereafter,  send  to  the  Transfer  Agent  the
                  Conversion Notice or Exercise Notice as the case may be, which
                  shall  constitute an  irrevocable  instruction to the Transfer
                  Agent to process such Conversion  Notice or Exercise Notice in
                  accordance with the terms of these instructions.

      2. All Shares.

            a.    The Transfer  Agent shall reserve for issuance to the Buyers a
                  minimum of 6,700,000  Conversion  Shares and 1,025,000 Warrant
                  Shares.  All such  shares  shall  remain in  reserve  with the
                  Transfer  Agent until the Buyers  provides the Transfer  Agent
                  instructions  that the  shares  or any  part of them  shall be
                  taken out of  reserve  and shall no longer be  subject  to the
                  terms of these instructions.

            b.    The Company hereby  irrevocably  appoints the David  Gonzalez,
                  Esq.  as a duly  authorized  agent  of  the  Company  for  the
                  purposes  of   authorizing   the  Transfer  Agent  to  process
                  issuances and transfers specifically contemplated herein.

            c.    The Transfer  Agent shall rely  exclusively  on the Conversion
                  Notice or the Exercise  Notice and shall have no liability for
                  relying  on  such  instructions.   Any  Conversion  Notice  or
                  Exercise  Notice  delivered   hereunder  shall  constitute  an
                  irrevocable  instruction to the Transfer Agent to process such
                  notice or notices in accordance  with the terms thereof.  Such
                  notice or notices may be  transmitted to the Transfer Agent by
                  facsimile or any commercially reasonable method.

            d.    The  Company  hereby  confirms to the  Transfer  Agent and the
                  Buyers that no instructions other than as contemplated  herein
                  will be given to Transfer Agent by the Company with respect to
                  the matters  referenced  herein. The Company hereby authorizes
                  the Transfer Agent, and the Transfer Agent shall be obligated,
                  to  disregard  any  contrary  instructions  received  by or on
                  behalf of the Company.

      RE: EARTHSHELL

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      We are counsel to EarthShell,  (the  "Company"),  and have represented the
Company in connection with that certain Securities Purchase Agreement,  dated as
of December __, 2005 (the "Securities Purchase Agreement"),  entered into by and
among the  Company  and the  Buyers set forth on  Schedule  I  attached  thereto
(collectively the "Buyers")  pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell to
the Buyers up to $4,500,000 of secured  convertible  debentures,  which shall be
convertible into shares (the "Conversion Shares") of the Company's common stock,
par value $.01 per share (the "Common  Stock"),  in accordance with the terms of
the  Securities  Purchase   Agreement.   Pursuant  to  the  Securities  Purchase
Agreement,  the Company also has entered into a Registration  Rights  Agreement,
dated as of December  ___,  2005,  with the Buyers (the  "Investor  Registration
Rights Agreement")  pursuant to which the Company agreed, among other things, to
register the Conversion Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"1933 Act"). In connection with the Company's  obligations  under the Securities
Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement,  on _______, 2005, the
Company  filed  a  Registration   Statement   (File  No.   ___-_________)   (the
"Registration  Statement")  with the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  (the
"SEC") relating to the sale of the Conversion Shares.

      In  connection  with the  foregoing,  we advise the Transfer  Agent that a
member of the SEC's staff has advised us by  telephone  that the SEC has entered
an order declaring the  Registration  Statement  effective under the 1933 Act at
____ P.M. on __________, 2005 and we have no knowledge, after telephonic inquiry
of a member of the SEC's staff, that any stop order suspending its effectiveness
has been issued or that any proceedings for that purpose are pending before,  or
threatened  by, the SEC and the  Conversion  Shares are available for sale under
the 1933 Act pursuant to the Registration Statement.

                                 EXHIBIT I-1

      The Buyers has  confirmed  it shall  comply with all  securities  laws and
regulations   applicable  to  it  including   applicable   prospectus   delivery
requirements upon sale of the Conversion Shares.

                               FORM OF OPINION

________________ 2005

VIA FACSIMILE AND REGULAR MAIL

_________

Attention:

      RE: EARTHSHELL

Ladies and Gentlemen:

      We have  acted as  special  counsel  to  EarthShell  (the  "Company"),  in
connection  with the  registration  of  ___________shares  (the "Shares") of its
common stock with the Securities and Exchange  Commission  (the "SEC").  We have
not acted as your  counsel.  This  opinion is given at the  request and with the
consent of the Company.

      In rendering  this opinion we have relied on the accuracy of the Company's
Registration Statement on Form SB-2, as amended (the "Registration  Statement"),
filed by the Company with the SEC on _________  ___, 2005. The Company filed the
Registration  Statement on behalf of certain selling  stockholders (the "Selling
Stockholders").  This opinion relates solely to the Selling  Shareholders listed
on Exhibit  "A" hereto and  number of Shares  set forth  opposite  such  Selling
Stockholders'  names. The SEC declared the Registration  Statement  effective on
__________ ___, 2005.

      We  understand  that the  Selling  Stockholders  acquired  the Shares in a
private offering exempt from  registration  under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended. Information regarding the Shares to be sold by the Selling Shareholders
is  contained  under the  heading  "Selling  Stockholders"  in the  Registration
Statement,  which information is incorporated herein by reference.  This opinion
does not relate to the issuance of the Shares to the Selling  Stockholders.  The
opinions set forth herein  relate  solely to the sale or transfer by the Selling
Stockholders  pursuant to the  Registration  Statement under the Federal laws of
the United States of America.  We do not express any opinion  concerning any law
of any state or other jurisdiction.

      In  rendering  this  opinion  we have  relied  upon  the  accuracy  of the
foregoing statements.

                                 EXHIBIT II-1
<PAGE>

      Based on the  foregoing,  it is our  opinion  that the  Shares  have  been
registered with the Securities and Exchange  Commission under the Securities Act
of 1933,  as  amended,  and that  ________  may remove the  restrictive  legends
contained on the Shares. This opinion relates solely to the number of Shares set
forth opposite the Selling Stockholders listed on Exhibit "A" hereto.

      This opinion is furnished to Transfer  Agent  specifically  in  connection
with the sale or  transfer of the Shares,  and solely for your  information  and
benefit.  This  letter  may not be relied  upon by  Transfer  Agent in any other
connection,  and it may not be relied upon by any other person or entity for any
purpose  without our prior  written  consent.  This opinion may not be assigned,
quoted or used without our prior written consent.  The opinions set forth herein
are rendered as of the date hereof and we will not supplement  this opinion with
