Notes to the consolidated financial statements (Unaudited) For the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 1. Financial Statement Presentation and Going Concern The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Canadian generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applicable to interim financial statements, following the same accounting policies as those outlined in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009. The interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent annual consolidated financial statements. The accompanying financial statements of ProSep Inc. (the "Company) have been prepared using Canadian generally accepted accounting principles applicable to a going concern, which assumes the Company will be able to realize the carrying value of its assets and discharge its liabilities in the normal course of operations. The Company has incurred a loss of $3,154,374 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2010, has an accumulated deficit of $68,739,859 and has not so far generated positive cash flows from operations. In addition, the Company is subject to certain restrictive covenants. Accordingly, there exists significant doubt that the Company would be able to continue as a going concern at September 30, 2010. These conditions require that the Company continues to seek external sources of financing in order to continue its operations and to achieve profitability in the future. At September 30, 2010, the Company had a cash balance of $2,522,446. Taking into consideration the senior overdraft facility (see Note 8), the Company believes that it has sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations for the next twelve months. While management believes the use of going concern assumptions is appropriate, the financial statements do not include any adjustments or disclosures that may be necessary should the Company not be able to continue as a going concern. If this were the case, these adjustments could be material. 2. Segmented Information Operating Segments The Company designs, develops and manufactures process solutions to treat produced water, oil and gas for the upstream oil and gas industry. Segments are based on geographic locations except for Corporate Office that was separated based on its distinct operations. US, European & Middle East and Asia Pacific operations relate to manufacturing and commercialization of process solutions. The former Product Development segment has been integrated into European & Middle East Operations to represent the unit's operational functionality. Comparable information has been reclassified accordingly. The accounting policies that apply to the reportable segments are the same as those used to prepare the consolidated financial statements.

Restricted Cash At September 30, 2010, restricted cash related to letters of credit was fully released. 7. Long term Investment and Related Credit facility Estimate of Fair Value At September 30, 2010, the Company held the same Class A-1, A-2, B and C Notes issued by Master Asset Vehicle II ("MAV 2') at December 31, 2009. Although there is evidence that some isolated transactions have occurred on some of these Notes since December 31, 2009, such transactions are not representative of an active market and accordingly quotations from an active market were not available at September 30, 2010. In fact, the Notes held by the Company have not traded in an active market since the restructuring of January 2009. On September 21, 2010, DBRS upgraded the rating of the Class A-1 Notes to A (high) (sf) from "A" (sf) and has removed the ratings from Under Review with Positive Implications, where they were placed on June 22, 2010. At the same time, DBRS has confirmed the BBB (low) (st) rating of the MAVII Class A-2 Notes. Furthermore, Blackrock, the administrator of MAV 2, indicated that the ineligible Asset Tracking Notes Class 1 have also been reduced to zero following credit events in the underlying transactions. Nevertheless, the Ineligible Asset Tracking Notes Class 1 and 2 remain eligible under the put option arrangement with the National Bank of Canada. The fair value of the Notes at September 30, 2010 was determined using a methodology consistent with the one used at December 31, 2009 which is based on management's judgment using available information and assumptions market participants would use in pricing such Notes at the balance sheet date. The Company took into account information provided by DBRS and BlackRock including current and anticipated credit ratings, composition and valuation estimates of the underlying assets, the estimate of the extent of leverage in the transactions underlying the MAV 2 Notes, general economic conditions and the price levels of the aforementioned irregular transactions in considering the fair value of the investment. The Company estimated the fair value of the Notes using the discounted cash flow evaluation technique based on observable market assumptions to the extent possible. The main assumptions are comprised of the anticipated interest coupons, anticipated maturity of the Notes and an appropriate discount rate considering the underlying risks. The estimated discount rate was determined based on observable market assumptions for similar securities. The Company used the following discount factors to evaluate the Notes: September 30, 2010 December 31, 2009 Replacement Notes Expected Yield Market related Discount factors (Canada Bond rate plus) Expected Yield Market related Discount factors (Canada Bond rate plus) Class A-1 157 basis points* 265 basis points 283 basis points" 590 basis points Class A-2 157 basis points* 605 basis points 283 basis points" 705 basis points Class B 0 basis points' 840 basis points 283 basis points" 850 basis points Class C 0 basis points 3,040 basis points 0 basis points 2,350 basis points Ineligible 0 basis points 158 basis points 0 basis points 203 basis points • September 30, 2010 bankers' acceptance swap rate of 2.07% minus 50 basis points " December 31, 2009 bankers' acceptance swap rate of 3.33% minus 50 basis points The risk premiums added to the basic bankers' acceptance rates reflect liquidity, credit and other risks. The fair value of the put options embedded in the credit facility with the National Bank of Canada at September 30, 2010 was estimated using a valuation technique that incorporates a probability-weighted approach, applied to discounted future cash flows of the underlying IA and Eligible Notes while considering: (i) the fair value of such Notes, (ii) the maximum amount that can be drawn under the respective credit facilities, (iii) the recourse features of such drawings, and (iv) the discount rate relating to National Bank. At September 30 2010, management concluded that the fair value of the Notes and the embedded put options remained unchanged from the June 30, 2010 value. Page I EFTA01158278 ProSep Inc. Notes to the consolidated financial statements (Unaudited) For the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2010 and 2009 The estimated fair values may not be indicative of the ultimate net realizable value or the future fair value, because of the uncertainty in the market. While management believes that its valuation technique is appropriate under the circumstances, changes in significant assumptions, especially those relating to the probability of the scenarios, returns, credit risk and liquidity risk could significantly affect the value ascribed to the replacement notes in the future. Following the analysis, the Company identified that the discount rate related to Classes A-1 and A-2 of MAV 2, and the embedded put option on the IA Notes generate the vast majority of the volatility in the valuation model of the Notes and embedded put options fair value. For example, a 50 basis point increase or decrease in the discount rate for A-1 and A-2 Notes and the IA Notes put option would result in a $98,822 change in the aggregate fair value of the Notes. 8.
