PROMISSORY NOTE


Principal Amount US$1,500,000.00		Ventura, California
		December 30, 2010

For value received, the undersigned Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Maker”), promises to pay to Kanis, S.A. (“Payee”), or order, c/o S G Associates Limited, 82Z Portland Place, London, England, W1B 1NS, the principal sum of One Million Five Hundred Thousand United States Dollars ($1,500,000.00), together with interest at the rate hereinafter provided for on the unpaid principal balance of this promissory note (this “Note”) from time to time outstanding until paid in full and the Payment Premium (as defined below).

Interest shall accrue on the unpaid and outstanding principal balance of this Note commencing on the date hereof and continuing until repayment of this Note in full at a rate per annum equal to Six Per Cent (6.00%), with interest only payable quarterly on each March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing March 31, 2011. The principal, along with any accrued but unpaid interest, and the Payment Premium shall be due and payable in full on June 30, 2013 (the “Maturity Date”). This Note shall bear no prepayment penalty.

As used herein, Payment Premium means the amount determined by multiplying US$200,000 times a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that have elapsed between December 30, 2010 and the Maturity Date, and the denominator of which is 913; provided that the Payment Premium in no event shall be greater than US$200,000 or less than US$100,000.

Maker shall make all payments hereunder to Payee in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds. Payments shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest, then to principal.

The maturity of this Note may be accelerated by Payee in the event Maker is in breach or default of any of the terms, conditions or covenants of this Note or any other agreement of Maker with Payee or its affiliates.

Maker waives presentment, demand, notice of demand, protest, notice of protest or notice of nonpayment in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of this Note or of any document or instrument evidencing any security for payment of this Note.

Failure at any time to exercise any of the rights of Payee hereunder shall not constitute a waiver of such rights and shall not be a bar to exercise of any of such rights at a later date.

A-1

Maker agrees to pay all reasonable costs of collection and enforcement of this Note, including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees and disbursements, whether or not any lawsuit or other legal action is instituted to enforce this Note, including without limitation if Payee seeks the advice or assistance of an attorney as a result of or in connection with any default, or if Maker becomes the debtor or otherwise becomes the subject of any bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding for the readjustment of indebtedness.

No addition to or amendment of this Note shall be admissible, enforceable or effective unless it is set forth in a writing duly executed by the party against whom the addition or amendment is sought to be enforced.

Nothing contained in this Note shall be deemed to require the payment of interest or other charges by Maker or any other person in excess of the amount which the Payee may lawfully charge under the applicable usury laws. In the event that Payee shall collect moneys which are deemed to constitute interest which would increase the effective interest rate to a rate in excess of that permitted to be charged by applicable law, all such sums deemed to constitute interest in excess of the legal rate shall be credited against the principal balance of this Note then outstanding, and any excess shall be returned to Maker.

This Note will be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California. In any action brought under or arising out of this Note, the Maker hereto hereby consents to the jurisdiction of any competent court within the State of California and consents to service of process by any means authorized by the laws of the State of California.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has caused this Note to be duly executed in California as of the date first written below.

of Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc.
(a Delaware Corporation)

B-1

This Certifies that Kanis S.A. (the “Holder”), with an address c/o S G Associates Limited, 82Z Portland Place, London, England, W1B 1NS, for value received and subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth is entitled to purchase from Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), 25,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value $.01 per share (the “Shares”), at a price of USD$10.40 per share (the “Exercise Price”) on or before 5:00 p.m. local time at the then executive offices of the Company on or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below). This Warrant shall be void unless exercised on or before the Expiration Date.

1. Commitment Letter. This Warrant is issued pursuant to that certain Loan Commitment Letter between the Holder and the Company (the “Commitment Letter”) relating to the loan by Holder to the Company of US$1,500,000 (the “Loan”) and the issuances by the Company to the Holder of this Warrant on the date hereof.

2. Exercise; Expiration Date. This Warrant may be exercised from time to time by the Holder, on or after June 30, 2013, as to the whole or any lesser number of the Shares upon tender of this Warrant at the then executive office of the Company with a written notice signed by the Holder to the attention of the Company Secretary expressing the Holder’s intent to exercise the same together with payment to the Company of the Exercise Price of the Shares stated in the notice to be purchased. If this Warrant is exercised in respect of fewer than all of the Shares that may be purchased under this Warrant, the Company shall execute a new warrant in the form of this Warrant for the remaining Shares issuable under the original Warrant and deliver such new Warrant to the Holder.

This Warrant and all rights hereunder will expire if not exercised by 5:00 p.m. prevailing local time in New York, New York on the date (the “Expiration Date”) that is the earlier to occur of (i) June 30, 2016, and (ii) that date which is thirty (30) days after the giving of notice by the Company to the Holder that the Fair Market Value of one Share has exceeded 130% of the Exercise Price for ten (10) consecutive days (which 10-day period means, if the Shares are then listed or traded on an exchange or otherwise quoted, 10 consecutive days commencing on or after June 30, 2013 for which the Closing Bid Price is reported), and that the Warrant will therefore expire if not exercised prior to the Expiration Date.

“Fair Market Value” means (i) the consolidated closing bid price of one Share as reported on the NASDAQ Stock Market, LLC or on any other principal national securities exchange on which the Shares are then listed or admitted for trading or (ii) if the Shares are not then listed or admitted for trading on any national securities exchange, the last reported sale price or, in case no such sale takes place on each day during the 10-day period referred to above, the average of the highest reported bid and the lowest reported asked quotation for the Shares, either case as reported on any authorized interdealer quotation system (in each case, the “Closing Bid Price”). If the Shares are not listed or admitted for trading on any national securities exchange or quoted by any interdealer quotation system or a similar service, Fair Market Value means the fair market value of a Share as determined by a majority of the directors of the Company’s Board of Directors.

3. No Stockholder Rights. This Warrant does not confer upon the Holder or the Holder’s permitted Assignees any right whatsoever as a stockholder of the Company, including without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the right to vote, to receive notices and the right to receive dividends, prior to the exercise of the Holder’s rights to purchase the Shares as provided herein.
