                  than six months preceding the date on which certain of the
                  warrants were exercised and the anti-dilution clauses
                  contained therein were immediately operative on the date of
                  original issuance. The convertible notes were originally
                  issued on December 31, 1997 and became unconditionally
                  convertible on February 20, 1998, at which time the
                  anti-dilution clauses contained therein also became
                  unconditionally operative. No securities or derivative
                  securities of the issuer of any kind have been acquired from
                  the issuer or any other person within more than six months
                  from the date of exercise of said warrants, the acquisition
                  of shares pursuant to the exercise of said warrants relating
                  back to the date of acquisition of the original warrants or
                  the sale of shares by Ultra Pacific, Sundial or the Family
                  Trust. Furthermore, no sales or other dispositions of any
                  securities or derivative securities of the issuer occurred 
                  within said six month period.            
        
         (d)      No other person other than Ultra Pacific, Sundial and The
                  Family Trust have the right to receive or the power to direct
                  the receipt of dividends from or the proceeds from the sale of
                  securities of Metalclad reported in item 5(a) above.

         (e)      Inapplicable.

                  to Securities of the Issuer

                  There are no contracts, arrangements, understandings or
                  relationships (legal or otherwise) among the persons named in

                  guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the
                  giving or withholding of proxies, provided, however, that
                  Metalclad as borrower and Ultra Pacific and Sundial as lenders
                  purchased for an aggregate purchase price of $1,500,000
                  ($500,000 from Ultra Pacific and $1,000,000 from Sundial) zero
                  coupon notes on December 31, 1997 at par, which notes are

                  conversion rights being included in the total number of shares
                  of Metalclad of which there is a right to acquire as set forth
                  in item 5(a) with respect to Ultra Pacific and Sundial.
