Re: U.S. Plastic Lumber Corp.

Dear Scott:

I have outlined below the terms upon which I believe we have agreed to in
principle relative to the restructure of all securities held by the Halifax
Fund, L.P. subject to the closing of the sale of the Clean Earth, Inc.
transaction. If these terms are acceptable to you, please sign below
acknowledging the same at which point we can pass this term sheet to our
respective attorneys to put into definitive agreements. This term sheet shall
not be binding and the parties shall only be bound by such definitive
agreements.

      o  The Debentures dated February 2000 and June 2001 will be terminated or
         amended and restated as set forth below, subject to advice of counsel.

      o  The Series D Preferred Stock shall be cancelled, but otherwise included
         in the consideration set forth below.

      o  All defaults charges, fees, and penalties will be waived and Halifax
         will release USPL from any actions Halifax now has against USPL
         relative to the above mentioned securities.

      o  Halifax will release its second position on all assets of USPL (only to
         the extent it is an asset being transferred as part of the CEI sale
         such as certain intellectual property), all assets of Clean Earth, Inc.
         and all of it subsidiaries so as to allow USPL to transfer such assets
         as part of the sale of Clean Earth, Inc. This includes all intellectual
         property, accounts receivables, inventory, equipment, real estate and
         any and all other assets being transferred as part of the Clean Earth
         sale transaction. Halifax will further assist and authorize USPL to
         take all appropriate action in terminating all UCC's relative to said
         assets.

     In exchange for the above, Halifax and USPL will enter into a new
transaction as follows:

      o  At closing of the Clean Earth, Inc., Halifax will be paid $2.5 million
         in cash.

      o  At closing, Halifax and USPL shall enter into a Subordinated Junior
         Convertible Debenture in the amount of $2.8 million. The Debenture will
         be for a term of three years and carry interest at the rate of 10%
         accrued daily and compounded semi-annually. During the first two years,
         the interest will be paid in kind. During the third year, the interest
         will be paid in cash. The subordination terms shall be identical to the
         Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement currently in place with Bank
         of America. The conversion feature of the Debenture shall be based upon
         fixed prices allowing Halifax to convert $933,333.33 of the Debenture
         at a price of $.75 per share, $933,333.33 at $1.00 per share, and
         $933,333.33 at $1.25 per share. The maturity date of the Debenture

         shall be three years from the date of closing of the Clean Earth, Inc
         sale. The underlying common stock shall be freely saleable pursuant to
         Rule 144(k).

      o  At closing, Halifax and USPL shall enter into a Subordinated Junior
         Note in the amount of $5.6 million. The Debenture will be for a term of
         three years and carry interest at the rate of 10% accrued daily and
         compounded semi-annually. During the first two years, the interest will
         be paid in kind. During the third year, the interest will be paid in
         cash. The subordination terms shall be identical to the Intercreditor
         and Subordination Agreement currently in place with Bank of America.
         This Note shall have no conversion features. The maturity date of the
         Debenture shall be three years from the date of closing of the Clean
         Earth, Inc sale.

      o  The second position of Halifax on all USPL assets will be maintained
         substantially as in its current form and as provided in the
         Intercreditor and Subordination Agreement with Bank of America, except
         that USPL shall grant a second mortgage to Halifax on its Ocala real
         estate.. USPL will use its best efforts to provide a second mortgage on
         the Chicago property, with the understanding that Halifax requires such
         a mortgage.

      o  The parties will negotiate a limitation on the ability of USPL to incur
         senior debt based upon a ratio of total senior debt to total assets.

      o  USPL will pay Halifax's reasonable legal fees in connection herewith,
         and undertakes to settle its current outstanding legal bills with
         Kleinberg Kaplan.

We look forward to finalizing this transaction along with the Clean Earth, Inc
sale transaction. Please call me should you have any questions.

Very truly yours,
