            such request shall be made in writing and be copied to each party.
            The Company shall, insofar as it is able to do so, comply with any
            such request within 5 Business Days after its receipt and shall copy
            its response to each party.

      6.2.2 Consultation

            Following receipt by the Shareholders of each draft Budget pursuant
            to Sub-Clause 6.1 and, as appropriate, any further information
            supplied pursuant to Sub-Clause 6.2.1, the parties shall consult
            upon the content of such draft Budget and shall each use all
            reasonable endeavours to reach agreement as to the contents of such
            draft Budget. In the event of failure so to agree within 30 days
            after the submission of the draft budget the provisions of
            Sub-Clause 6.4 shall apply.

6.3   Amendments to Budgets

      During the course of any financial year, the Company may from time to time
      request any changes to be made to the approved Budget. Any such request
      shall be made in writing to each of the Shareholders and, for the purposes
      of endeavouring to agree to any such change, the request shall be treated
      as if it formed part of a draft Budget, in accordance with Sub Clause 6.2,
      save that the timetable for endeavouring to reach agreement shall be 10
      days rather than 30 days.


                                                                              17

6.4   Disputed Budgets

      In the event of any failure to agree amongst the parties as to the form or
      content of any draft Budget (which expression shall, for the purposes of
      this Sub-Clause, include any proposed revision pursuant to Sub-Clause
      6.3), then pending resolution of the dispute or failure to agree the
      Company shall not be entitled to carry out any activities which are the
      subject of dispute, except in so far as necessary in order to comply with
      legally binding obligations which it has previously incurred in accordance
      with this Agreement or insofar as the carrying out of such activities
      falls within the terms of any previous approved Budget.

6.5   Principles Governing Budget

      Any draft Budget produced by the Company, and any approved Budget shall,
      unless the parties otherwise agree:

      6.5.1 be itemised monthly and cover the immediately following financial
            year;

      6.5.2 contain forecasts of turnover, cost of sales, trading profit or loss
            for each month during the period which it covers;

      6.5.3 include all anticipated expenditure during the period under the
            following principal headings: e.g

            (A)   cost of goods sold ("COGS"), including breakdown of fuel,
                  additive, and royalties;

            (B)   payroll and taxes;

            (C)   marketing;

6.6   Monthly Information and Performance

      6.6.1 Management Information


                                                                              18
<PAGE>

            The Company shall prepare monthly management information which shall
            contain a report of the revenue and expenditure of the Company
            during the month, a comparison of the actual revenue and expenditure
            against that forecast for the corresponding period in the approved
            Budget, an explanation of any difference between the two in excess
            of per cent and of any factors or circumstances known to the Company
            which may lead the Company to consider that the results of the
            Company for forthcoming months may differ from the approved Budget
            by an amount in excess of 10 per cent. Such information shall be
            delivered to the Shareholders within 14 days after the end of the
            month to which it relates.

      6.6.2 Variations from agreed Budget

            If the management information produced pursuant to Sub-Clause 6.6.1
            demonstrates a shortfall or forecast shortfall between any actual or
            forecast figure and the corresponding figure in the approved Budget,
            the Company shall as soon as practicable prepare a revised budget
            for the remainder of the then current financial year and shall
            propose such revised budget as a draft budget, with respect to which
            the provisions of this Clause 6 shall have effect.

6.7   Annual Accounts

      Without prejudice to the preceding provisions of this Clause 6, at the end
      of each financial year, or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter,
      the Company shall procure:

      6.7.1 that an account shall be taken of all the assets and liabilities of
            the Company and of all dealings and transactions of the Company
            during such financial year;

      6.7.2 that the Directors shall prepare a report and accounts in accordance
            with the Act and the Agreed Accounting Practices and Policies to be
            audited by the Auditors within 60 days of the end of each financial
            year; and

      6.7.3 that such accounts shall be laid before the Company in general
            meeting not later than 4 months after the relevant accounting
            reference date.

7.    STRATEGIC CONSULTATION

      In addition to the above consultations, the Shareholders will meet once a
      quarter to discuss strategy for the Company.

8.    TECHNICAL SUPPORT

      NewGen agrees to provide full technical support for all Company efforts in
      the Territories, as required for successful execution of the Business
      strategies agreed on a quarterly basis.

9.    FUNDING OF THE COMPANY

9.1   Initial Funding

      The initial operating funds for the Company will be provided via a
      short-term loan of $US200,000, as documented by the Short Term Loan
      Agreement. Of this loan, US$96,590.60 has already been paid by NewGen, as
      shown in Schedule 2. A further US$26,819.54 of the remaining balance has
      been invoiced for other expenses. Newgen undertakes to pay promptly these
      amounts which have been invoiced from the remaining balance of the
      $200,000. Newgen further undertakes that it will forward the balance of
      the $200,000, namely US$76,589.86, to the Company's Bank account within 7
      days of the date of this Agreement.


                                                                              19
<PAGE>

9.2   Additional Funding

      9.2.1 No Shareholder shall have any obligation to provide any additional
            capital to the Company. Further, it is agreed that, to the extent
            that further funding, whether for capital or revenue expenditure is
            necessary for the Company in order to develop or carry on the
            Business in accordance with the terms and intention of this
            Agreement, such funding should first be sought by the Directors on
            behalf of the Company from third party investors, on the best terms
            reasonably available to the Company. It is acknowledged by the
            Shareholders that such funding is likely to be provided by way of
            equity investment in the Company. It has been agreed in principle
            that new shares of the Company will be registered for such equity
            investment, as well as to provide incentives for partners and hiring
            of officers as determined to be in the best interest of the company.
            Issue of such equity requires the prior approval of the board of
            Directors of the Company.

      9.2.2 Upon successful equity capital funding of the Company, NewGen will
            provide an additional short term loan to match the equity capital
            raised, up to a maximum loan amount of (pound)500,000 on the same
            terms as the Short Term Loan Agreement.

      9.2.3 Unpaid salaries and expenses for Mr G Dawson and Mr A Greystoke will
            be deferred until such time that additional funding is acquired by
            the Company.

      9.2.4 The Company will not enter into any agreement for the provision of
            Funding to it in an amount over (pound)100,000 without the agreement
            of the Shareholders.

10.   ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

      10.1 Allocations of Net Profits and Net Losses from Operations. All Net
Profits, Net Losses and other items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit
of the Company shall be allocated annually to the Shareholders pursuant to each
Shareholder's Shareholding.

      10.2 Distributions. The Board of Directors shall determine in its
reasonable judgment to what extent, if any, the Company may make Distributions
in accordance with this Agreement, and shall authorize the Managing Director to
make such Distributions to the Shareholders at such times and in such amounts as
the Board of Directors determines.

      10.3 Limitations on Distributions. No Distribution shall be declared and
paid unless, after the Distribution is made, the assets of the Company are in
excess of all liabilities of the Company.

11.   PROTECTION OF THE BUSINESS

11.1  Definitions

      In this Clause:


                                                                              20

            Williamson, and Hazel, and any other current or future key employee

            these obligations);

      11.1.4 references to acting directly or indirectly include (without
            prejudice to the generality of that expression) references to acting

11.2  Restrictions

      Each of the Restricted Parties, and solely with respect to Sub-Clause
      8.2.2(b), each Shareholder covenants with each of the other parties that:

            this Agreement (the "Termination Date"), he shall not directly or

            may hold for investment up to five per cent of any class of
            securities of any competing business quoted or dealt in on the
            London Stock Exchange or the AIM market in the United Kingdom;

      11.2.2 until the expiration of 2 years from the Termination Date, he shall
            not directly or indirectly:

            (A)   solicit, canvass or approach or endeavour to solicit, canvass
                  or approach on behalf of a competing business any person for
                  the purpose of offering to that person restricted goods or
                  services or supply on behalf of a competing business other
                  than NewGen, or one of its Subsidiaries:

                  (i)   who, to his knowledge, was provided with goods or
                        services or licence rights by the Company in the course

                        the 2 years up to and including the Termination Date; or

                  (ii)  who, to his knowledge, was negotiating with the Company
                        for the supply of goods or services or exploitation
                        rights in the course of the carrying on of the Business
                        at any time during the 12 months up to and including the
                        Termination Date;


                                                                              21
<PAGE>

            (B)   solicit or entice away or endeavour to solicit or entice away

                  NewGen, or one of its Subsidiaries, any person who is then
                  employed by the Company, or who was employed by the Company at
                  any time during the twelve (12) months immediately preceding
                  the Termination Date, in each case in an executive, senior
                  technical, or senior sales capacity with a view to inducing
                  that person to leave such employment and to act for a
                  competing business in the same or a similar capacity..

11.3  Restrictions Separate

      Each of the restrictions set out in Sub-Clauses 11.2.1 and 11.2.2 are
      separate and severable and in the event of any such restriction being
      determined as unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason, such
      unenforceability shall not affect the enforceability of the remaining
      restrictions or (in the case of restrictions unenforceable in part) the
      remainder of that restriction. The duration, scope and geographic area for
      which the provisions set forth in this Agreement are to be effective are
      reasonable. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any
      provision of this Agreement is invalid or unenforceable by reason of such
      provision extending the covenants and Agreements contained herein for too
      great a period of time or over too great a geographical area, or by reason
      of its being too extensive in any other respect, such agreement or
      covenant shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum period of
      time and geographical area, and to the maximum extent in all other
      respects, as to which it is valid and enforceable, all as determined by
      such court in such action. Any determination that any provision of this
      Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, shall have no
      effect on the validity or enforceability of any remaining provision of
      this Agreement.

11.4  Company Obligation

      The Company shall use all reasonable efforts to ensure that all future
      directors and key employees of the Business (whether through the Company
      or any of its Subsidiaries) enter into substantially identical
      restrictions as are set forth in this Clause 10.

12.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

      Each party to this Agreement represents and warrants to each of the other
      parties that:

12.1  It has the power or capacity to enter into and to exercise its rights and
      to perform its obligations under this Agreement;

12.2  It has taken all necessary action to authorise the execution of and the
      performance of its obligations under this Agreement;

12.3  the obligations expressed to be assumed by it under this Agreement are
      legal, valid, binding and enforceable;

12.4  neither its execution nor performance of this Agreement will contravene
      any provision of:

      12.4.1 any existing law, treaty or regulation; or

      12.4.2 any obligation (contractual or otherwise) which is binding upon it,
            or upon any of its assets;


                                                                              22
<PAGE>

12.5  all consents, licences, approvals or authorisations of, exemptions by or
      registrations with or declarations by, any governmental or other authority
      required by it with respect to this Agreement have been obtained or made,
      are valid and subsisting and will not be contravened by the execution or
      performance of this Agreement; and

12.6  (in the case of each of the Shareholders) the Shares to be transferred to
      and/or subscribed for by it will not, upon or after such transfer and/or
      subscription, become subject to any Encumbrance.

13.   DEFAULT

13.1  Events of Default

      It shall be an event of default (an "Event of Default") if:

      13.1.1 any party does not pay any amount payable by it under this
            Agreement and such amount remains unpaid after the expiry of 20
            Business Days following the giving by any of the other parties to
            such party of a notice requiring such payment to be made;

      13.1.2 an order is made by a court of competent jurisdiction, or a
            resolution is passed, for the dissolution or administration of that
            party (otherwise than in the course of a reorganisation or
            restructuring previously approved in writing by the other parties);
            or

      13.1.3 any step is taken (and not withdrawn within 30 days) to appoint a
            manager, receiver, administrative receiver, administrator, trustee
            or other similar officer in respect of any assets which include
            either (i) (in the case of a Shareholder) the Shares held by that
            Shareholder or (ii) (in the case of each of the parties) shares or
            other securities in that party; or

      13.1.4 any party convenes a meeting of its creditors or makes or proposes
            any arrangement or composition with, or any assignment for the
            benefit of, its creditors; or

      13.1.5 any party commits a material breach of this Agreement and (if
            capable of remedy) fails to remedy the same (or establish plans to
            remedy the same in a manner satisfactory to the non-defaulting
            parties) within 30 days of notice to do so being given by any other
            party (and in which such other party expresses its intention to
            exercise its rights under this clause).

13.2  Consequences of an Event of Default

      If an Event of Default occurs in relation to a Shareholder (a "Defaulting
      Shareholder") then, without prejudice to the Defaulting Shareholder's
      obligations under this Agreement and to any other rights or remedies
      available to any of the parties with respect to the Defaulting
      Shareholder, any of the other Shareholders shall be entitled by notice in
      writing to the Defaulting Shareholder (copied to the other parties) at any
      time whilst such Event of Default subsists to require:

      13.2.1 that the Defaulting Shareholder shall not exercise its right to
            attend and vote at general meetings of the Company; and/or


                                       23

      and 18 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding termination.

15.   COSTS AND EXPENSES

15.1  Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses, including the fees and
      expenses of its legal and other advisers and VAT or any similar tax
      thereon, incurred in connection with the establishment of the joint

      any other party or to pledge the credit of any other party.

17.2  Assignment

      None of the parties may assign any of their respective rights or

      right, power, privilege or remedy or be construed as a waiver thereof. Any
      single or partial exercise of any such right, power, privilege or remedy
      shall not preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of
      any other right, power, privilege or remedy. The rights and remedies
