<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On September 28, 2012, Environmental Quality Management, Inc.
(&ldquo;EQ&rdquo;) and EQ Engineers, LLC (&ldquo;EQE&rdquo;) entered into a loan agreement (&ldquo;Loan Agreement&rdquo;) with
First Financial Bank, N.A. (&ldquo;First Financial&rdquo;) that provides for a revolving credit facility and a letter of credit
facility (the &ldquo;2012 Facility&rdquo;). The 2012 Facility provides for maximum borrowings of up to $10,000,000, including a
letter of credit sub-limit of $2,000,000. The 2012 Facility expires on January 21, 2014. EQ is a wholly owned subsidiary of EQM
Technologies &amp; Energy, Inc. (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), and EQE is a wholly owned subsidiary of EQ. Funds drawn under the
revolving credit facility bear interest at the one month London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (&ldquo;LIBOR&rdquo;), plus 3.0% (3.21%
as of September 28, 2012). The Loan Agreement is secured by the assets of EQ and EQE pursuant to a Security Agreement between First
Financial, EQ and EQE (the &ldquo;Security Agreement&rdquo;) and is guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a Guaranty to and for
the benefit of First Financial (the &ldquo;Guaranty&rdquo;). The Company has also pledged all issued and outstanding stock of EQ
pursuant to a Pledge Agreement between the Company and First Financial (the &ldquo;Pledge Agreement&rdquo;). The Security Agreement,
Guaranty, and Pledge Agreement were each entered into on September 28, 2012.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">The 2012 Facility provides working capital financing under a
borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable and eligible unbilled revenue. As of September 28, 2012, the available
borrowing base under the 2012 Facility totaled approximately $9,700,000, including $2,000,000 of the borrowing base attributable
to obligations for letters of credit. EQ and EQE are subject to certain financial covenants set forth in the Loan Agreement, including
requirements to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the Loan Agreement. The 2012 Facility replaces the
credit facility that EQ and EQE had with U.S. Bank, N.A. (&ldquo;U.S. BANK&rdquo;) (the &ldquo;2006 Facility&rdquo;), which was
due to expire on March 31, 2013. In connection with replacing the 2006 Facility, the Financing Agreement between U.S. Bank and
EQ, dated October 31, 2006, to which EQE was added as a party and was further amended from time to time, was terminated.</P>

Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On September 28, 2012, Environmental Quality Management, Inc.
("EQ") and EQ Engineers, LLC ("EQE") entered into a loan agreement ("Loan Agreement") with
First Financial Bank, N.A. ("First Financial") that provides for a revolving credit facility and a letter of credit
facility (the "2012 Facility"). The 2012 Facility provides for maximum borrowings of up to $10,000,000, including a
letter of credit sub-limit of $2,000,000. The 2012 Facility expires on January 21, 2014. EQ is a wholly owned subsidiary of EQM
Technologies & Energy, Inc. (the "Company"), and EQE is a wholly owned subsidiary of EQ. Funds drawn under the
revolving credit facility bear interest at the one month London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), plus 3.0% (3.21%
as of September 28, 2012). The Loan Agreement is secured by the assets of EQ and EQE pursuant to a Security Agreement between First
Financial, EQ and EQE (the "Security Agreement") and is guaranteed by the Company pursuant to a Guaranty to and for
the benefit of First Financial (the "Guaranty"). The Company has also pledged all issued and outstanding stock of EQ
pursuant to a Pledge Agreement between the Company and First Financial (the "Pledge Agreement"). The Security Agreement,
Guaranty, and Pledge Agreement were each entered into on September 28, 2012.
The 2012 Facility provides working capital financing under a
borrowing base consisting of eligible accounts receivable and eligible unbilled revenue. As of September 28, 2012, the available
borrowing base under the 2012 Facility totaled approximately $9,700,000, including $2,000,000 of the borrowing base attributable
to obligations for letters of credit. EQ and EQE are subject to certain financial covenants set forth in the Loan Agreement, including
requirements to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in the Loan Agreement. The 2012 Facility replaces the
credit facility that EQ and EQE had with U.S. Bank, N.A. ("U.S. BANK") (the "2006 Facility"), which was
due to expire on March 31, 2013. In connection with replacing the 2006 Facility, the Financing Agreement between U.S. Bank and
EQ, dated October 31, 2006, to which EQE was added as a party and was further amended from time to time, was terminated.
The Company incurred a one-time fee of $85,000 in connection
with closing on the Loan Agreement.
The holder of all the issued and outstanding shares of Series
A Convertible Preferred Stock, of the Company, acting by written consent, adopted resolutions approving the 2012 Facility, including
the Company's entry into the Pledge Agreement and the Guaranty.
