                                AGREEMENT BETWEEN
             PILLING WECK (PW) and MEDICAL STERILIZATION, INC. (MSI)


         Pilling  Weck agrees to  represent  and sell MSI's  procedure  specific
decontamination,  reprocessing and/or  sterilization  services in selective high
population density urban centers and/or in cooperation with MSI to selective IHN
organizations  according to the minimum  guidelines  in Exhibit A. MSI's current
market development  efforts, as outlined in Exhibit B, will be excepted from the
terms of this agreement. MSI grants to Pilling Weck exclusive, except as to MSI,
sales and  marketing  rights  in the  United  States  for the next  three  years
effective 1/5/96.

      *  MSI will continue its current account  development  efforts in the L.I.
         business Unit Area, but agrees to exclusive third-party  representation
         by PW in this area.  MSI will train Pilling Weck Sales  Representatives
         in the L.I.  Business  Unit Area (90 mile  radius).  Pilling  Weck will
         receive  a  commission  of  new  MSI  net  billings  generated  by  its
         representatives,  excepting  MSI's  current  active  customer  list  or
         accounts under active development, as indicated in Exhibit C, within 10
         days after payment receipt from the customer.

         The commission schedule is as follows:

                  *        New Accounts              [  ]%

                  *        Endoscopy                 [  ]%

         PW agrees  that  during  the  first  year,  [ ]% of the MSI  commission
         received  and  also,   []%  commission  of  any  MSI  purchases  of  PW
         instruments  will be paid to its  representation  in the L.I.  Business
         Unit Area.

      *  Pilling Weck and MSI (The parties are not partners or joint  venturers,
         but are  independent  contractors.)  agree to cooperate  exclusively to
         commercialize  MSI's procedure specific  decontamination,  reprocessing
         and/or sterilization services throughout North America according to the
         minimum  guidelines  outlined in Exhibit A.  Pilling  Weck will use its
         corporate and national account contacts to identify potential customers
         and MSI will support the sales  process by making  joint  presentations
         with Pilling Weck and coordinating proposals to the clients in a timely
         basis.

      *  MSI agrees to purchase  its surgical  instrument  needs for current and
         future sites from Pilling Weck,  and Pilling Weck agrees to supply such
         instruments  upon request for the 









         duration of this agreement.  Specific  customer requests or preferences
         for other brands of  instruments,  however,  will be  accommodated  and
         excepted from this exclusive  arrangement.  Pricing will be provided at
         Pilling Weck's  possible  discount level reflected as VP level pricing.
         MSI has the option to purchase such  instruments on terms, 60 days from
         date of invoice or on operating lease terms, utilizing PW's third party
         financing facility,  or through use of a MSI financing facility. In the
         event of termination of this agreement,  PW will not cause  termination
         of any leasing arrangement in effect.

      *  To start offering an endoscopic set to this trade,  Pilling Weck agrees
         to supply MSI with endoscopic sets at this pricing level.

      *  Pilling  Weck and MSI  agree to  review  options  for  contribution  of
         instruments   to  new  centers,   whereby   Pilling  Weck   contributes
         instruments  as equity,  and receives  equity as a percentage  of total
         capitalization for that center.

      *  Pilling Weck also agrees to review options to supply instruments to MSI
         on a capitated  basis,  whereby Pilling Weck is paid on a per use basis
         for the  instruments  and  ownership  of the  instruments  remains with
         Pilling Weck.

      *  Pilling Weck will provide on-site  instrument  repair services for MSI,
         as  requested  by MSI,  at VP  level  pricing  at their  Syosset,  N.Y.
         facility.  MSI will provide adequate space to Pilling Weck personnel on
         a rent free basis.

      *  Both parties  agree to a legal "stand  still"  status  whereby  neither
         party will enter into  discussions or  negotiations  with other parties
         regarding  competing joint ventures or other  activities which would be
         competitive with the arrangements  contemplated by this agreement. This
         is in effect for the first [ ] of this  agreement  and can be  extended
         with  consent of both  parties.  MSI will not enter  into  negotiations
         regarding the sale of its business and Pilling Weck will not enter into
         negotiations   regarding   purchase  or   organization  of  a  business
         competitive to MSI's sterilization business.  However, it is recognized
         that ESI is an existing  Teleflex  business and the  existing  lines of
         business of ESI are excluded from this restriction.

         The term of this  agreement  is three years.  However,  in the event of
change of ownership  of the  business,  either  party may cancel this  agreement
provided one year's  notice is given to the other  party.  After the first year,
either party,  by giving thirty (30) days written notice prior to the end of the
year, may terminate the agreement if new MSI/PW generated  contracts of at least
[ ] have not been signed or are pending,  or MSI has not  purchased or committed
to pending purchases of at least [ ] of PW instruments.

         If Pilling Weck terminates this agreement for reasons other than breach
on MSI's part,  Pilling  Weck would be bound by an 18 month  non-compete  in the
geographic  areas (180 mile radius)  where MSI and Pilling  Weck have  concluded
contracts.








         The non-compete would cover off-site decontamination, reprocessing, and
sterilization of surgical  instruments for hospitals in the specific  geographic
area covered.

         If MSI  terminates  this  agreement  for  reasons  other than breach on
Pilling  Weck's  part,  Pilling  Weck  would  be  unrestricted  in any  business
practices and not be bound by the above mentioned non-compete.
