Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer:

          (a)  The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned
               by Mr.  Bray is  671,903  which  represents  4.7%   of the  total
               outstanding  shares of Common  Stock of the  issuer.  The  number
               671,903  includes  314,214  options to  purchase  Osmonics,  Inc.
               Common Stock and 126,633 shares owned by Julianne LaFrankie Bray,
               wife of Donald T. Bray, as her separate property and in which Mr.
               Bray disclaims any beneficial interest.

               Mr.  Bray is a party  to a  Registration  Rights  Agreement  with
               Osmonics, Inc. whereby Osmonics, Inc. is obligated to maintain an
               effective registration statement for the shares owned by Mr. Bray
               for a period of three years.  Mr. Bray also has certain piggyback
               rights under the Registration Rights Agreement.

          (b)  Mr.  Bray has the sole power to vote or direct the vote,  and the
               sole power to dispose or direct the  disposition of the shares of
               Common Stock held by him.

          (c)  Other  than the  receipt  of the  shares of  Common  Stock in the
               merger in July of 1996,  the sale of 150,000  shares in  November
               1996,  the sale by Mr.  Bray's wife in November of 1996 of 20,000
               shares of Common Stock,  the gift by Mr. Bray of 51,976 shares of
               Common Stock and the gift of 10,474 shares of Common Stock by Mr.
               Bray's wife, the purchase of 10,000 shares on May 16, 1997 at the
               price of $15.625 per share,  the purchase of 10,000 shares on May
               19,  1997 at the price of $16.00  per share and the  purchase  of
               10,000  shares on May 27, 1997 at the price of $16.125 per share,
               no  transactions  in the  Common  Stock of the  issuer  have been
               effected  during the past 60 days by Mr.  Bray.  The  purchase of
               30,000 shares in May 1997 did not represent a material  change in
               excess of 1%.

          (d)  Mr.  Bray has the right to  receive  and the right to direct  the
               receipt of the  benefits  of  dividends  from the Company and the
               proceeds from any sale of the Company's Common Stock.
