1. ASTM PCEOCP VID Matrix Design and Funding Subgroup March 19, 2008San Antonio, TX

2. Agenda • Introduction and membership • Project organization and meeting rules • Project timeline • Scope of work • Matrix design • Funding • Key questions (inputs and outputs) • Actions and assignments • Next meeting

3. Membership – open to all PCEOCP members 5 additive suppliers, 3 lube suppliers, 2 OEMs, 2 ind. labs ILSAC, ACC, API, PCEOCP and TMC are all represented

4. Meeting and Balloting • Follow ASTM rules for conducting the meeting • Industry liaisons • PCEOCP-Thom Smith and Glen Mazzamaro • ILSAC – Jim Linden • ACC – Jerry Wang • API – Kevin Ferrick and David Smith • TMC – John Zalar • Records posted on the TMC website • Generally follow ASTM voting rules but limited to one vote per company • Attempt unanimous consensus • PCEOCP will have the final vote based on its rules

5. Project Process and Boundary VID Consortium GF-5 Timeline Final test procedure with demonstrated discrimination ILSAC/Oil MOU (API) PCEOCP recommendations Sub Timeline Matrix/Funding Subgroup Matrix Options Scope Inputs outputs Funding options VID Precision Testing – managed by TMC

6. Timeline GF-5 timeline • Timeline is affected by the group’s ability to get key inputs Proposed subgroup timeline

7. Scope – Matrix Design • The primary goal is to establish VID test precision • Repeatability and reproducibility based on fully formulated reference oils representative of current technology such as GF-4 capable or GF-5 prototype • The secondary goal is to establish base oil interchange and viscosity grade readacross guidelines • The group will continue to monitor Precision Matrix Program until completed

8. Scope - Funding • The primary purpose is to recommend minimum funding needs for proposed matrix options to ILSAC/Oil • The funding recommendation will include sources and breakdown of funding

9. Key Inputs – Matrix Design • Final test procedure and demonstrated discrimination • number of matrix oils • suggested requirements: GF-5 demonstration oil, GF-4 certification oil, current technology oil(s) that show discrimination • Inquire API BOI/VGRA for oils • For precision matrix only, there needs be only 1 viscosity grade • number of participating labs and stands (min. 2 labs and 3 stands) • Engine age effect • BOI option • Parameters? • VGRA option • Parameters?

10. Key Outputs – Matrix Design • Matrix options • Precision • + BOI • + VGRA • + BOI and VGRA

11. Key Inputs – Funding • Minimum number of tests to meet primary goals • Number of tests desired to address other goals • - list goals and number of tests needed for each individual goal • Cost per test from labs including the decision on how many reference runs for stand calibration • Number of participating labs and stands • Reference oil supplies

12. Key Outputs – Funding • Funding estimate for each matrix options • Precision only • + BOI • + VGRA • + BOI and VGRA
