Menello and Gary A. Herman. Joseph Giamanco holds a 52% ownership interest in G.H.M. and is the President and Chief Executive Officer of G.H.M. Ronald J. Menello holds a 24% ownership interest in G.H.M. and is the Senior Vice President of G.H.M. Gary A. Herman holds a 24% ownership interest in G.H.M. and is the Senior Vice President of G.H.M. The group filers may be deemed to be members of a group (for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that holds in excess of 10% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Messrs. Giamanco, Menello and Herman disclaim ownership of the shares or warrants to purchase shares owned by G.H.M., Inc. except to the extent of their actual pecuniary interest. (2) On January 10, 2001, Joseph Giamanco was issued 400,000 shares of common stock ("Common Stock"), $.001 par value, of EPL Technologies, Inc. ("EPL") as partial consideration for his loan on January 10, 2001 to EPL of $300,000. (3) Joseph Giamanco owns 2,627,412.5 shares of Common Stock.

(7) Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, dated as of December 1, 1999, between EPL and G.H.M. (the "G.H.M.

Because such a registration statement was still not declared effective by the SEC, on January 9, 2001, G.H.M. received an additional warrant from EPL to purchase 150,000 shares of Common Stock (for the months of October, November and December 2000).

(9) Pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, dated as of December 1, 1999, between EPL and Joseph Giamanco (the "Giamanco Subscription Agreement"), because a registration statement with respect to the shares of Common Stock purchased by Joseph Giamanco under the Giamanco Subscription Agreement (including the shares of common stock underlying the warrants issued to Joseph Giamanco pursuant thereto) has not been declared effective by the SEC, Joseph Giamanco is entitled to receive an additional warrant to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock for each thirty (30) days during which such registration statement is not declared effective. On January 9, 2001, Joseph Giamanco received an additional warrant from EPL to purchase 150,000 shares of Common Stock for the 90 day period covering the months of October, November and December, 2000 during which the registration statement was not declared effective.
