THERMOFLOW's balance sheets as of such dates (the "Thermoflow Balance Sheets"),
the related statements of profit or loss for the periods then ended, and the
respective notes thereto. Such financial statements (and the notes related

Sheets, and as to matters arising in the ordinary course of its business since
the respective date of the Thermoflow Balance Sheets, THERMOFLOW has no
liability or obligation of a type required by generally accepted accounting
principles to be reflected in the Thermoflow Balance Sheets (whether accrued, to
become due, contingent or otherwise) which individually or in the aggregate

(financial or otherwise) or prospects of THERMOFLOW. Except as set forth in
Exhibit "I," since March 31, 2000, there has been (a) no declaration, setting
aside or payment of any dividend or other distribution with respect to the
Thermoflow Shares or redemption, purchase or other acquisition of any of the
Thermoflow Shares or any split-up or other recapitalization relative to any of
the Thermoflow Shares or any action authorizing or obligating THERMOFLOW to do
any of the foregoing, (b) no material loss, destruction or damage to any
material property or asset of THERMOFLOW whether or not insured, (c) no
acquisition or disposition of assets (or any contract or arrangement therefor),
or any other transaction by THERMOFLOW otherwise than for fair value and in the
ordinary course of business, (d) no discharge or satisfaction by THERMOFLOW of

contingent) other than current liabilities shown on the Thermoflow Balance
Sheets, or current liabilities incurred since the date thereof in the ordinary
course of business, (e) no sale, assignment or transfer by THERMOFLOW of any of
its tangible or intangible assets except in the ordinary course of business,
cancellation by THERMOFLOW of any debts, claims or obligations, or mortgage,

encumbrance, or waiver by THERMOFLOW of any rights of value which, in any such
case, is material to the business of THERMOFLOW, (f) no payment of any bonus to

material to the business of THERMOFLOW, (h) no disposition or lapse of rights as
to any intangible property which is material to the business of THERMOFLOW, (i)
except for ordinary travel advances, no
Page 9
<PAGE>
loans or extensions of credit to stockholders, officers, directors or employees
of THERMOFLOW, (j) no agreement to do any of the things described in this
Section 3.6, and (k) no material adverse change in the condition (financial or
otherwise) of THERMOFLOW or in its assets, liabilities, properties, business, or
prospects. Except as set forth in the Thermoflow Financial Statements or in
Exhibit "I," there are no payments, liabilities, or obligations of any kind due
any of the Stockholders.
3.7 APPLICABLE PERMITS; COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS. THERMOFLOW (i) holds all
licenses, franchises, permits, and authorizations necessary for the lawful
conduct of its business as presently conducted and which the failure to so hold
would have a material adverse effect upon the business, properties, or assets,
or the condition (financial or otherwise) of THERMOFLOW, and (ii) has complied
with all applicable statutes, laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations of all
governmental bodies, agencies and subdivisions having, asserting or claiming
jurisdiction over it, which the failure to comply with would have a material
adverse effect upon the business, properties, or assets, or the condition
(financial or otherwise) of THERMOFLOW.
3.8 DISCLOSURE. Neither this Agreement, nor any material certificate,
exhibit, or other written document or statement, furnished to VITRISEAL by or on
behalf of THERMOFLOW or, to its knowledge, the Stockholders and the Warrant
Holders in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
contained or contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or
omits to state a material fact necessary to be stated in order to make the
statements contained herein or therein, when taken as a whole, not misleading.
Neither THERMOFLOW nor, to its knowledge, any of the Stockholders or Warrant
Holders has any knowledge of any fact which has not been disclosed in writing to
VITRISEAL which may reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect
the business, properties, or assets, or the condition (financial or otherwise)
of THERMOFLOW or title of the Stockholders and Warrant Holders to the Thermoflow
Shares and Thermoflow Warrants or their ability to perform all of the
obligations to be performed by them under this Agreement and/or any other
agreement between THERMOFLOW, the Stockholders, the Warrant Holders, and
VITRISEAL to be entered into pursuant to any provision of this Agreement.
3.9 OWNERSHIP OF THERMOFLOW. THERMOFLOW issued each Stockholder that
number of Shares set forth opposite the Stockholders' respective names on
Exhibit "A," which shares together constitute all of the issued and outstanding
shares of the capital stock, common and preferred, of THERMOFLOW. The Shares are
duly authorized, validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable
and were issued by THERMOFLOW in conformity with all applicable laws. THERMOFLOW
issued each Warrant Holder that number of Warrants set forth opposite the
Warrant Holders' respective names on Exhibit "A," which warrants together
constitute all of the rights to acquire shares of the capital
Page 10
<PAGE>
stock of THERMOFLOW. The Thermoflow Warrants are duly authorized, validly issued
and outstanding, and were issued by THERMOFLOW in conformity with all applicable
laws.
3.10 SUBSIDIARIES. THERMOFLOW has no subsidiaries and no investments,
directly or indirectly, or other financial interest in any other corporation or
business organization, joint venture or partnership of any kind whatsoever
except as reflected in the Thermoflow Financial Statements.
3.11 REAL PROPERTY. Exhibit "J," attached hereto and incorporated
herein by this reference, contains a complete and accurate legal description of
each parcel of real property owned by or leased to and occupied or subleased by
THERMOFLOW, and THERMOFLOW neither owns or leases, nor occupies, any other real
property. The building and all fixtures and improvements located on such real
property are in good operating condition, ordinary wear and tear excepted. To
the best of its knowledge, THERMOFLOW is not in violation of any material
zoning, building or safety ordinance, regulation or requirement, or other law or
regulation applicable to the operation of owned or leased properties, and
THERMOFLOW has not received any notice of violation with which its has not
complied. All leases of real property to which THERMOFLOW is a party and which
are material to the business of THERMOFLOW are fully effective in accordance
with their respective terms and afford THERMOFLOW peaceful and undisturbed
possession of the subject matter of the lease, and, to the best knowledge of
THERMOFLOW, there exists no default on the part of THERMOFLOW or termination
thereof.
3.12 TANGIBLE PERSONAL PROPERTY. Exhibit "K" attached hereto sets forth
a complete list of all items of tangible personal property owned or leased and
used by THERMOFLOW in the current conduct of its business, where the original
cost was in excess of $1,000. THERMOFLOW has good and marketable title to, or in
the case of leased equipment a valid leasehold interest in, and is in possession
of, all such items of personal property owned or leased by it, free and clear of
all title defects, mortgages, pledges, security interests conditional sales
agreements, liens, restrictions or encumbrances, the presence of which would
result in a material adverse change in the business, properties, or assets, or
the condition (financial or otherwise) of THERMOFLOW. Included in Exhibit "K" is

THERMOFLOW is a party as lessee and which individually provide for future lease

to all such leases and agreements shown thereon. All leases of tangible personal
property to which THERMOFLOW is a party and which are material to the business
of THERMOFLOW are fully effective in accordance with their respective terms,
and, to the best knowledge of THERMOFLOW, there exists no default on the part of
THERMOFLOW or termination thereof, the presence of which would result in a

ordinary course of THERMOFLOW's business and fit for its intended purposes.
3.13 TAX MATTERS. THERMOFLOW has, since its inception, duly filed all
material federal, state, municipal, local, and other tax returns required to
have been filed by it in those jurisdictions where the nature or conduct of its
business requires such filing and where the failure to so file would be
materially adverse to THERMOFLOW. Copies of all such tax returns have been made
available for inspection by VITRISEAL prior to the execution hereof. All
federal, state, municipal, local, and other taxes shown to be due on such
returns have been paid or will be paid prior to the time they become delinquent.
The amounts reflected in the Thermoflow Balance Sheets as liabilities or
reserves for taxes which are due but not yet payable are sufficient for the
payment of all accrued and unpaid taxes of the types referred to hereinabove and
THERMOFLOW has no knowledge of any proposed liability for taxes to be imposed
upon its properties or assets for which there is not adequate reserve reflected
in the Thermoflow Financial Statements.
3.14 CONTRACTS AND COMMITMENTS. THERMOFLOW has no contract, agreement,
obligation or commitment, written or oral, expressed or implied, which involves
a commitment or liability of THERMOFLOW in excess of $1,000 (other than
obligations which are included in accounts payable), and no union contracts,
employee or consulting contracts, financing agreements, debtor or creditor
arrangements, licenses, franchise, manufacturing, distributorship or dealership
agreements, leases, or bonus, health or stock option plans, except as described
in Exhibits "G" and "I." True and complete copies of all such contracts and
other agreements listed in Exhibits "G" and "I" which involve a commitment or
liability of THERMOFLOW in excess of $1,000 have been made available to
VITRISEAL prior to the execution hereof. As of the date hereof, to the best of
their knowledge, there exist no circumstances that would affect the validity or
enforceability of any of such contracts and other agreements in accordance with
their respective terms. THERMOFLOW has performed and complied in all material
respects with all obligations required to be performed by it to date under, and
is not in default (without giving effect to any required notice or grace period)
under, or in breach of, the terms, conditions or provisions of any of such
contracts and other agreements. The validity and enforceability of any contract
or other agreement described herein has not been and shall not be materially and
adversely affected by the execution and delivery of this Agreement without any
further action. THERMOFLOW has no contract, agreement, obligation or commitment
which to the best knowledge of THERMOFLOW requires or will require future
expenditures (including internal costs and overhead) in excess of reasonably
anticipated receipts, nor which is likely to be materially adverse to
THERMOFLOW's business, assets, condition (financial and otherwise), or
prospects.
