WHEREAS, Borrower has requested Secured Party to make loans available to Borrower (the “Loan”) in the Bankruptcy Case pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California (the “Bankruptcy Court”); and

WHEREAS, Lender is willing to make the Loans upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

I. LOANS

Pari Passu Loans. This Loan is one of a series of loans made, or to be made, to Borrower by Secured Party and one or more other lenders (the “Other Loans” and the “Other Lenders”; the Secured Party and the Other Lenders are collectively referred to as the “Lenders”), each on substantially the same terms and conditions. Secured Party’s obligation to make this Loan is subject to Borrower’s having obtained similar agreements from Other Lenders providing for loans (subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the similar agreements of the Other Lenders) in the aggregate sum (including the Loan and Other Loans) of at least $11,200.62. The Secured Party agrees that this Loan, and each Other Loan, shall be entitled to payments from Borrower (including from the Collateral, and proceeds thereof, described in Paragraph II below) on a pari passu basis, determined by reference to the original principal amount of outstanding notes under this Loan and each Other Loan (the “Pari Passu Basis”). The provisions of this paragraph shall be set forth in each loan and security agreement executed by Borrower and each Other Lender.

Advances. The Loan shall be available in minimum advances (“Advances”) of $25,000 collectively from the Lenders. The first Advance shall be in the amount of $6,533.69 from Secured Party (the “Initial Advance”) and shall be available upon entry by the Bankruptcy Court of that certain Order Authorizing Post-Petition Financing in form and substance acceptable to Secured Party (the “Financing Order”). Borrower promises to execute and deliver to Secured Party a promissory note (such note and each other note issued to Secured Party and Other Lenders with respect to the Loan and Other Loans being referred to as a “Note”) in the original principal amount of each Advance. Secured Party will make subsequent Advances, up to an aggregate total of $11,200.62 (including the Initial Advance), upon the written election (in Secured Party’s sole discretion) of Secured Party, and subject to entry of a Final Order Authorizing Post-Petition Financing (“Final Financing Order”). All such elections by Secured Party to undertake additional Advances will be made within five (5) business days after receipt by the Secured Party of a written or electronic advance request (“Advance Request”), which Advance Request shall show that the borrowing is consistent with the Borrower’s operating budget set forth in Exhibit A, as the same may be amended from time to time with the approval in writing of Lenders holding 65% of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding (the “Operating Budget”). Borrower shall deliver to Lender for signature a Note dated as of the Advance Date to evidence such Advance in the form of the Note attached hereto. Upon receipt by Secured Party of such Note duly executed by Borrower, Secured Party shall fund the Advance in the manner requested by the Advance Request (the “Advance Date”). All of the terms, conditions and covenants of this Agreement shall apply to all Advances whether or not each Advance is evidenced by a Note.

Maturity Date. All Loans, together with all interest, fees and expenses accrued thereon, shall be due and payable in cash, without offset or recoupment (which Borrower hereby waives) on the earlier to occur of (a) May 31, 2010, provided that such date may be extended without Court order with the consent of the Secured Party, or (b) the effective date of a confirmed plan of reorganization in the Bankruptcy Case (the “Effective Date”). Amounts repaid on any Loan shall not be reborrowed. All of the Advances, Loans and other obligations arising under this Agreement shall constitute one general obligation of Borrower secured by all of the Collateral (as defined in section II hereof).

Application of Payments. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, payments under the Notes shall be applied, (i) first to the repayments of any sums incurred by the Secured Party for the payment of any expenses incurred in enforcing the terms of this Agreement and the Notes, (ii) then to the payment of any accrued but unpaid interest under the Notes, and (iii) then to the reduction of the principal amount of each Note.

E.	Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loan and Other Loans shall be applied solely in accordance with the Operating Budget, except as may otherwise be agreed in writing by Lenders holding 65% of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding.

II. CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST

To secure payment and performance of all debts, liabilities and obligations of Borrower to Secured Party under the Loan Documents, as defined below (collectively, the “Obligations”), Borrower hereby assigns and grants security interests to Secured Party in all now existing or hereafter arising or acquired real or personal property of Borrower including all existing or hereafter arising or acquired personal property of Borrower, including accounts, goods, general intangibles, instruments, chattel paper, deposit accounts, letter of credit rights, securities, and investment property, and all proceeds, products, substitutions and replacements of such personal or real property (collectively the “Collateral”). For purposes of this Agreement the term “Loan Documents” means this Agreement, the Note(s), and any other agreement entered into between Borrower and Secured Party in connection with the foregoing, in each case as amended or restated from time to time. Notwithstanding the date of this Agreement, the date on which Advances are made under the Loan, the date on which the loan agreements between Borrower and any Other Lender shall be executed, the date on which advances are made under any Other Loan, or the date on which any financing statement shall be recorded to perfect the security interests of Secured Party or any Other Lender in the Collateral, Secured Party and each Other Lender shall be deemed to have been granted, and perfected, its security interest in the Collateral at the same time, such that the Collateral and all proceeds thereof shall be shared among Secured Party and the Other Lenders according to the Pari Passu Basis. The provisions of this paragraph shall be set forth in each loan and security agreement executed by Borrower and each Other Lender.

CONSENT AND SUBORDINATION AGREEMENT

This Consent and Subordination Agreement (this “Subordination Agreement”) is entered into between the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (the “Department”), successor to the California Integrated Waste Management Board, appearing herein by and through its Division Chief, Financial Assistance Division, and ECO2 Plastics, Inc., a Delaware Corporation, debtor and debtor in possession in In Re ECO2 Plastics, Inc., Case No. 09-33702-DM (the “Borrower”)

1. The Department has an interest in the successful reorganization of Borrower to further the Department’s efforts to develop markets for recyclable materials and to protects its interests as a lender. The Department has a first priority prepetition lien on all the assets of the Borrower. Department and Borrower agree that the financing arrangements between Lenders and Borrower are in Borrower’s and Department’s best interests. Therefore, the Department does hereby consent to the execution by Borrower of that certain (i) Loan and Security Agreement (“Trident LP Loan Agreement”) by and between Borrower and Trident Capital Fund-VI, L.P. (“Trident LP”), (ii) that Loan and Security Agreement by and between Borrow and Trident Capital Fund-VI, Principals Fund, LLC (“Trident LLC Loan Agreement”), and (iii) that certain Loan and Security Agreement (“Buff Loan Agreement”) by and between Borrower and Buff Investment Limited Partnership (“Buff”), a Delaware limited partnership. (Trident LP, Trident LLC and Buff are hereafter referred to as the “Lenders,” and the Trident LP Loan Agreement, Trident LLC Loan Agreement, and the Buff Loan Agreement are collectively referred to as the “DIP Facility”). Department further consents to the payment of all sums due or becoming due under the DIP Facility by the Borrower to the Lenders as and when they become due and payable. In order to induce Lenders to enter into or continue such financing arrangements, Department and Borrower also agree as follows:

2. Department agrees that its first priority prepetition lien on all of the assets of Borrower is and shall be junior and subordinate to the lien of Lenders on all assets of the Borrower as granted and evidenced by the order of the Court approving the foregoing DIP Facility as to seventy five percent (75%) of the cash recovery upon sale or liquidation of said assets. The Department’s first priority lien shall remain a first priority lien as to twenty five percent (25%) of the cash recovery upon sale or liquidation of said assets up to a cash recovery from sale or liquidation in an amount equal to Obligations under the DIP Facility; provided, that the principal amount of the DIP Facility does not exceed the sum of Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000). The effect of this subordination is that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and exercise of remedies under the DIP Facility by the Lenders, then Lenders and Department shall share in any proceeds of sale or liquidation of the assets of Borrower which become available for distribution to creditors in the ratio of seventy five percent (75%) to Lenders and twenty five (25%) to Department, with Lender’s recovery limited to 75% of the Obligations, as defined under the DIP Facility. In the event of a sale or liquidation of the assets of Borrower which yields a sum available for distribution to creditors which is greater than the amount of the Obligations under the DIP facility, the Department shall retain its senior first priority lien on such sum up to the total remaining indebtedness owed to Department by the Borrower. As a condition to this Subordination Agreement, Borrower agrees to pay Department all post petition interest owed to Department commencing with the December 2009 payment. Upon receipt of the financing proceeds, Borrower will bring the Department current with post petition interest only payments, and will thereafter make monthly interest payments by the 1st of the month.

3. Department agrees that, pursuant to this Subordination Agreement, the payments to be made under the distribution formula set forth in Paragraph 1 above constitute adequate protection within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. § 364(d)(1).

4. Department represents and warrants that Department has not previously subordinated the obligations owed Department by Borrower for the benefit of any other party, and agrees that any such subordinations hereafter executed shall be expressly made subject and subordinate to the terms of this Subordination Agreement.

5. Beginning on February 1, 2010, Borrower agrees to provide Department counsel with written biweekly progress reports as to its efforts made and results achieved towards obtaining permanent financing necessary for a successful reorganization. The reports may be submitted as e-mails.

6. This Subordination Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until and unless Department delivers to Lenders written notice that this Consent and Subordination Agreement has been revoked as to credit granted by Lenders subsequent to the delivery of such notice, but delivery of such notice shall not affect any of Department’s obligations hereunder with respect to credit granted by Lenders prior to such delivery.

7. The Department’s appearance and filings in this case are for itself and for no other department, agency, unit or entity of the State of California. Except as otherwise provided by law, neither the Department’s appearance in this case nor its filings in this case (including inter alia its entering into and filing of this Subordination Agreement) constitutes a waiver of sovereign immunity based on the Eleventh Amendment to the United States Constitution or related principles of sovereign immunity. The sovereign immunity of the State of California is expressly reserved.

8. Each person who executes this Subordination Agreement represents that he or she is duly authorized to execute this Subordination Agreement on behalf of the respective Parties hereto and that each such Party has full knowledge of and has consented to the terms and provisions hereof.

9. This Subordination Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument and it shall constitute sufficient proof of this Subordination Agreement to present any copy, copies or facsimiles signed by the Parties hereto be charged.

10. This Subordination Agreement can only be amended or otherwise modified by a writing executed by the Parties hereto.

11. Each Party to this Subordination Agreement shall bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees.

12. This Subordination Agreement is subject to the approval of the Court and upon such approval shall inure to the benefit of the Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as an admission by any of the Parties of any fault, wrongdoing, or liability of any kind to each other or to any other person or entity. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as creating any right claim or interest in favor of any person or entity not a Party to this Subordination Agreement.

13. The Court shall retain jurisdiction as necessary in order to enforce the terms of this Subordination Agreement by appropriate orders.
