         B. BONUS PLAN. The Company shall pay Executive a bonus of Fifty

         With respect to the Company's fiscal year 2008, Executive will be
entitled to earn a bonus targeted at 50% of Base Salary, dependent upon the

(iv) unless such acts or failures to act remain uncured 30 days after the
Company has provided written notice that such acts or failures to act shall
constitute Cause if uncured; (v) conviction of any felony or crime of moral
turpitude. For purposes of this Agreement, Good Reason shall mean (i) a

         Executive's target bonus, at budget, for the fiscal year in which the
         Change of Control occurs. In addition, so long as Executive shall not

         shall maintain, or at its election pay for comparable coverage, the
         Company medical benefits for Executive and his dependents for a period
         of two years. Following the expiration of such coverage, Executive and
         his dependents shall be entitled to elect continued coverage as
         required by law, and the period of continued coverage required by law
         shall not be reduced by the coverage provided during such two-year
         period. Executive shall also be entitled to a payment of a pro-rata
         portion of the target bonus, at budget, for the fiscal year in which
         the termination occurred (such pro-rata portion shall be equal to the
         number of months during the fiscal year preceding the date of
         termination of employment, divided by 12), as well as payment of any
         accrued but unpaid salary, payment of any accrued but unused vacation
         pay, reimbursement of business expenses incurred through the date of
         termination under the Company's expense reimbursement policies, and
         payment of any benefits accrued and vested through the date of
         termination under the Company's employee benefit plans.

         4. Any discharge of or termination by Executive hereunder shall be
communicated in a written notice to the other party hereto setting forth the
effective date of such discharge or termination (which date shall not be more
than 30 days after the date such notice of discharge is delivered (the
"Termination Date")) and, in the case of a discharge for Cause under clause (iv)
of the definition of Cause, the basis for such discharge.

         5. (a) Immediately following any Change of Control, and as of that
date, the Company will notify Executive of the itemized and aggregate cash value
of the payments and benefits, as determined under Section 280G of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), received or to be received by
Executive in connection with the Change of Control or the termination of his
employment pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. At the same time, the
Company shall advise Executive of the portion of such payments or benefits, if
any, which constitute "parachute payments" within the meaning of the Code and
which may subject Executive to the payment of excise taxes pursuant to Section
4999 of the Code and the expected amount of any such taxes.

            (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2, if

               (i)   Any payments or benefits received or to be received by
         Executive pursuant to the terms of this Agreement constitute "parachute

                                       9
<PAGE>

         payments" (such payments or benefits being hereinafter referred to as
         the "Parachute Payments") within the meaning of Section
         280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code, and

               (ii)  The aggregate present value of the Parachute Payments
         reduced by any excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code (or
         any similar tax that may hereafter be imposed) (the "Excise Tax") would
         be less than three times Executive's "base amount," as defined in
         Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code, then, in lieu of the Parachute Payments
         to which Executive would otherwise be entitled under Section 2, the

             Executive Employee Confidentiality, Non-Competition and
                         Invention Assignment Agreement

     This EXECUTIVE EMPLOYEE CONFIDENTIALITY, NON-COMPETITION AND INVENTION
ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), effective as of January 3, 2006 (the
"Effective Date"), is entered into by and between AMERICAN SOIL TECHNOLOGY,
INC., a Nevada corporation (the "Company"), and DONETTE LAMSON, whose principal
residence is 6735 Heath Court, Carlsbad, CA 92011 (the "Employee"). The Company
and Employee are referred to collectively herein as the "Parties."

                                 Recitals

     A. As of the Effective Date, the Company and Employee have entered into a
separate Executive Employment Agreement Between AMERICAN SOIL TECHNOLOGY, INC.
and DONETTE LAMSON (the "Employment Agreement"). Unless otherwise defined
herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the meanings given in the
Employment Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this
Agreement and the Employment Agreement, the terms of the Employment Agreement
shall govern.

     B. Employee's employment by Company creates a relationship of confidence
and trust between Employee and Company with respect to certain information
applicable to the business of the Company and its clients or customers.

     C. The Company possesses and will continue to possess information that has
commercial value and is treated by Company as confidential. Such information may
include information created, discovered or developed by Employee during the
period of or arising out of Employee's or Employee employment by Company,
whether before or after the date hereof, as set forth in paragraph 6 below. Such
information may also include information belonging to Company's owners,
managers, clients, business partners, customers or suppliers. All such
information is hereinafter called "Confidential Information." Confidential
Information for purposes of this Agreement also includes, without limitation,
discoveries, developments, designs, improvements, inventions, blueprints,
structures, software, processes, computer programs, know-how, data, techniques,
formulas, marketing, and business plans and outlines, strategies, budgets,
forecasts, projections, unpublished financial statements, costs, fee schedules,
client and supplier lists, client and prospective client databases, access codes
and similar security information and procedures, and all patents, copyrights,
maskworks, trade secrets and other proprietary rights thereto; provided,
however, that the term "Confidential Information" shall not include any of the
foregoing that is in the public domain other than as the result of a breach of
an obligation of confidentiality.

     D. Employee recognizes that any unauthorized use or disclosure of
Confidential Information would cause serious injury to Company, and that the
Company's willingness to employ Employee depends upon Employee's commitment to
<PAGE>
protect Company's Confidential Information and to comply with all of the
provisions of this Agreement

                                 Agreement

     Therefore, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and Employee hereby agrees as
follows.

     19.  Protection of the Confidential Information. At all times during and
          after Employee's employment, Employee shall hold all Confidential
          Information in confidence and shall protect it with utmost care.
          Employee shall not disclose, retain, copy, or permit any unauthorized
          person to disclose or copy any of the Confidential Information, except
          as may be necessary for the conduct of the Company's business.
          Employee shall not use any of the Confidential Information except as
          necessary to perform Employee's duties as an employee of the Company
          as provided in this Agreement and in the Employment Agreement.

     20.  Confidential Information Belonging to Third Parties. In the event that
          Employee has or has had access to any Confidential Information
          belonging to any third party, including but not limited to any of
          Employee's previous employers, Employee shall hold all such
          Confidential Information in confidence and shall comply with the terms
          of all agreements between Employee or Company and any third party with
          respect to such Confidential Information.

     21.  Exceptions. This Agreement is not to prevent the use or disclosure by
          Employee of information that (a) is required by law to be disclosed,
          but only to the extent that such disclosure is legally required, (b)
          becomes a part of the public knowledge other than by a breach of an
          obligation of confidentiality, or (c) is rightfully received from a
          third party and neither the Company nor Employee is obligated to hold
          such information confidential.

     22.  Return of Confidential Information. Upon the Company's request, and in
          any event upon termination of Employee's employment by the Company for
          any reason, Employee shall promptly return to Company all materials in
          Employee's or possession or control that contain or represent
          Confidential Information, including but not limited to documents,
          drawings, diagrams, flow charts, computer programs or files,
          memoranda, notes, and every other medium, and all copies thereof.

                                       2

     23.  Non-Competition.

     a.   Acknowledgement. Employee acknowledges that (i) the Company and/or its
          affiliated and subsidiary organizations are engaged in a variety of
          business endeavors; including development of applications for polymers
          (the "Business"); (ii) the Business is conducted throughout the United
          States and is expected to be conducted in one or more countries
          internationally; (iii) Employee's work for the Company will give
          Employee access to trade secrets and confidential information
          concerning the Company and the Business, including, without
          limitation, proprietary information and trade secrets, investor
          addresses and contact lists, techniques for raising development
          capital for the Company; (iv) the ability of the Company and its
          affiliates to continue the Business is likely to be materially
          jeopardized and the value of the Company and its affiliates reduced if
          Employee competes with, or assists other persons in competing, with
          the Company and/or any of its affiliates.

     b.   Covenant Not to Compete in Turf and Horticulture Polymer Business.
          Therefore, for a period of 3 years from the date of any termination of
          Employee's employment by the Company for any reason, Employee shall
          not anywhere in the world, accept employment with or render any
          service to a direct competitor of the Company or create or engage in
          creating or conducting a competing business in the turf and
          horticulture polymer business.

          i.   "Direct Competitor" and "competing business" for purposes of this
               Agreement mean any business or entity that is in any business
               that is the same or similar to the Company's polymer Business.

          ii.  Employee acknowledges that the restrictions imposed by this
               Agreement are reasonable and will not preclude Employee from
               being gainfully employed, other than in the turf and horticulture
               polymer industry, in other ways and activities following a
               termination of employment with the Company

          iii. Without limiting the foregoing, Employee also agrees that, during
               the Term of the Employment Agreement, and for a period of 3 years
               after termination of the Employment Agreement, Employee shall not
               do any of the following: carry on any business or activity
               (whether directly or indirectly, as a partner, shareholder,

                                       3
<PAGE>
               owner, principal, agent, director, affiliate, employee, advisor,
               or consultant, or in any other capacity) which is competitive
               with the Turf and Horticulture Polymer Business as conducted by
               the Company at the time of termination of Employee's employment.

     c.   Enforceability. If any court shall determine that the duration,
          geographic limitations, subject or scope of any restriction contained
          in this Section 5 of this Agreement is unenforceable, it is the
          intention of the parties that this Section 5 of this Agreement shall
          not thereby be terminated but shall be deemed amended to the extent
          required to make it valid and enforceable, such amendment to apply
          only with respect to the operation of this Section 5 of this Agreement
          in the jurisdiction of the court that has made the adjudication.

     24. Assignment of Inventions. Employee agrees to disclose and to assign
immediately to the Company, or to any persons designated by the Company, or at
the Company's option, any of the Company's successors or assigns, all inventions
or improvements which are or were made, conceived or reduced to practice by
Employee, whether acting independently or with others, during the course of
Employee's employment with the Company, and which (i) were made, conceived of or
first reduced to practice in the performance of any duties assigned to or
undertaken by the Employee as an employee of the Company; or (ii) were made,
conceived of or first reduced to practice with the use of the Company's time,
material, facilities or funds. Such inventions are referred to herein as
"Inventions," which prior inventions are attached hereto as Exhibit A.

     a.   This Agreement shall not diminish the effect or binding nature of any
          prior invention assignments made to the Company by Employee as set
          forth in the Employment Agreement.

     b.   Without limiting the foregoing, at all times the Company (or its
          nominee) shall have the right to obtain, for its own benefit and in
          its own name (and entirely at its expense) patents and patent
          applications of any type, and all renewals and extensions of such
          patents and applications for the inventions and improvements described
          in this Section. Employee shall provide Company the exclusive right of
          assignment for any Invention as defined in this agreement. In the
          event that the Company does not exercise its option or as such
          assignment within 30 days after first being notified by Employee in
          writing of such invention, Employee may then offer or otherwise
          economically exploit any such invention independent of Company's claim
          to assignment.

                                       4
<PAGE>
     c.   In order to protect the right, title and interest of the Company (or
          its successors, assigns or nominees) in such inventions or
          improvements, in connection with any applications or patents necessary
          to convey rights to those improvements or inventions to the Company,
          Employee shall, without further compensation, execute and deliver all
          papers and instruments and perform such further acts, including giving
          testimony or furnishing evidence in the prosecution or defense of
          appeals, interferences, suits and controversies relating to any of the
          inventions or improvements, as may be deemed necessary by the Company.

     25. Additional Cooperation with Respect to Inventions. Employee shall (a)
treat all information with respect to Inventions as Confidential Information
within the meaning of this Agreement; (b) keep complete and accurate records of
the Inventions, which records will be the property of Company; (c) testify in
any proceedings or litigation related to the Inventions; and (d) in case the
Company will desire to keep secret any Inventions or will for any reason decide
not to have letters patent applied for thereon, refrain from disclosing the
Invention and from applying from letters patent thereon.

     26. Assistance of the Company. Without limiting any of the foregoing,
Employee shall assist Company in every way deemed necessary or desirable by
Company (but at the Company's expense) to obtain and enforce patents,
copyrights, trademarks and other rights and protections relating to any
Confidential Information and Inventions in any and all countries, and to that
end Employee will execute all documents for use in obtaining and enforcing such
patents, copyrights, trademarks and other rights and protections as Company may
desire, together with any assignments thereof to Company or persons designated
by it. If Company is unable for any reason to secure Employee's signature, if
needed, to any document required to apply for or execute any patent, copyright,
maskwork or other applications with respect to any Inventions (including
improvements, renewals, extensions, continuations, divisions or continuations in
part thereof), Employee hereby irrevocably designates Company and its duly
authorized officers and agents as Employee's agents and attorneys-in-fact and on
Employee's behalf to execute and file any such application and to do all other
lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of patents,
copyrights, maskworks or other rights thereon with the same legal force and
effect as if executed by Employee. Employee's obligation to assist the Company
shall continue beyond the termination of Employee's employment, but Company
shall compensate employee at a reasonable rate after Employee's or Employee
termination for time actually spent by Employee at the Company's request on such
assistance.

     27. Employee Inventions. Attached as Exhibit A is a list of all Inventions
and information created, discovered, or developed by Employee whether or not
patentable or registrable under patent, copyright or similar statutes, made or
conceived or reduced to practice or learned by Employee, either alone or jointly

                                       5
<PAGE>
with others, excluding any Inventions, relating in any way to the Company's
business or demonstrably anticipated research and development that were made by
Employee prior to Employee's employment with the Company (the "Employee
Inventions"). Employee represents that Exhibit A is complete and contains no
confidential information. Employee understands that Employee has no rights in
any such Employee Inventions other that those listed on Exhibit A. If there is
nothing identified on Exhibit A or if "none" is indicated on Exhibit A, employee
represents that Employee has made no Employee Inventions as of the time of
signing this Agreement. Except as listed on Exhibit A which is attached to this
Agreement, Employee will not assert any rights to any inventions, discoveries,
concepts or ideas, or improvements thereof or know-how related thereto, as
having been made or acquired by Employee prior to being employed by the Company,
or since then, and not otherwise covered by the terms of this Agreement.

     28. No Conflicts With Prior Obligations. Employee hereby represents and
warrants that Employee's employment by the Company and Employee's performance of
Employee's obligations under this Agreement will not conflict with any
obligations of any nature or type that Employee has or may have to any third
party or third parties. Employee will not disclose to Company or use in
Company's behalf any confidential or proprietary information belonging to a
third party, unless the third party has consented to the disclosure or use of
the information. Covenant Not to Solicit. For a period of one (1) year from the
date of any termination of Employee's employment with the Company for any
reason:

     a.   Employee shall not solicit for employment, attempt to employ, or
          assist any other person or entity in employing or soliciting for
          employment, any employee or representative of Company, either for
          Employee or for any other entity; and

     b.   Employee shall not solicit or influence or attempt to solicit or
          influence any client of the Company, customer of the Company or other
          person who may become a client or customer of the Company, either
          directly or indirectly, in any way that directs or is intended or is
          likely to direct or cause such actual or potential client, customer or
          other person not to purchase the Company's polymer products and /or
          services.

     29. Equitable Remedies. Employee acknowledges that breach of this Agreement
would cause Company to suffer irreparable harm for which monetary damages would
be inadequate compensation. Employee agrees that Company will be entitled to an
injunction restraining any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement, or
specific performance, if applicable, in addition to any monetary damages.

     30. Employment Relationship. The employment relationship between Employee
and the Company is governed by the Employment Agreement and, as applicable, this
Agreement.

                                       6
<PAGE>
     31. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Employment Agreement to which
this Agreement is attached as an exhibit set forth the entire agreement of the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior
agreements, whether written or oral.

     32. Waiver and Amendment. Only a writing signed by both parties hereto may
amend this Agreement. No oral waiver, amendment or modification of this
Agreement shall be effective under any circumstances. The waiver by the Company
of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed
as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach of this Agreement by Employee.

     33. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will remain in force during
Employee's employment by the Company and will continue thereafter until all
Confidential Information acquired by Employee becomes part of the public
knowledge other than through a violation of this Agreement.

     34. Survival. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive termination or
expiration of this Agreement and termination of the Employment Agreement, for
any reason, for a period of 3 years after termination of the Term of the
Employment Agreement.

     35. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement may not be assigned by Employee,
but the Company may assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement to any
affiliate or subsidiary company of the Company, so long as the Company remains
liable for the performance by that affiliate or subsidiary of the payment
obligations of the Company hereunder. Except as provided in the preceding
sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the
parties and their respective personal representatives, successors and assigns.

     36. Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be considered
unenforceable by a court of law, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in
force to the fullest extent permitted by law.

     37. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in
accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to
principles of conflicts of law. Employee hereby consents to the personal
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of California
in connection with any litigation related to this Agreement and agrees that the
exclusive venue for any such litigation shall be in such courts located in the
State of California.
