          Second Line  Equipment  shall be  consummated  on March 31,  2006,  or
          earlier by mutual agreement of the parties hereto.

     e.   Condition.  Hydrogel  acknowledges  that the Second Line  Equipment is

<PAGE>

          Line  Equipment  shall  be  payable  by wire  transfer  to an  account
          designated by Dicon in installments as follows:

          i.   fifty thousand  (US$50,000) by February 28, 2006, or such earlier
               time as the parties shall mutually agree upon.

          ii.  three hundred  thousand  (US$300,000)  amortized over a period of
               thirty-six  (36)  months at an annual  variable  rate of interest
               equal to Prime plus two percent (2%) percent,  with principal and
               interest  to be  payable  monthly  beginning  April  1,  2006 and
               continuing  on the first day of each  successive  calendar  month
               until the full  amount  shall have been paid,  all in  accordance
               with the terms of a  promissory  note to be executed by Dicon and
               Hydrogel,  which promissory note shall be governed by Connecticut
               law,  shall grant Dicon the right to accelerate in the event of a
               default by Hydrogel  thereunder or under this  Agreement,  and if
               suit is brought to enforce the  promissory  note,  shall  entitle
               Dicon to  recover  attorneys'  fees,  court  costs  and  costs of
               investigation.  The  Prime  Rate  shall  be  the  Prime  Rate  as
               published in the Wall Street  Journal,  as adjusted  from time to
               time.  By way of  example,  based upon the Prime Rate on the date
               hereof  (6.75%),  the initial  monthly  payment of principal  and
               interest would be $9,505.05 ($7,317.55 in principal and $2,187.50
               in interest).  Until said promissory note shall have been paid in
               full in accordance with its terms, the obligations  thereof shall
               be secured by a first  priority lien by the Second Line Equipment
               in  accordance  with the  terms  of a  security  agreement  to be
               entered into by Dicon and Hydrogel.

     g.   Retention of Title.  Title to the First Line Equipment  shall not pass
          until 100%  percent of the  Purchase  Price and all other  charges and
          fees are paid in full,  excluding  royalties.  Upon the final payment,
          Dicon  warrants that title to the First Line  Equipment  shall pass to
          Hydrogel free and clear of any and all liens, equities,  claims, prior
          assignments,   mortgages,   charges,   security  interests,   pledges,
          conditional  sales  contracts,  collateral  security  arrangements and
          other  title  retention  arrangements,  restrictions  or  encumbrances
          whatsoever.  Dicon  agrees  to  provide  Hydrogel  with  proof  of the
          satisfaction  or release of liens, if any, as necessary to satisfy the
          provisions of this paragraph.

          Title to the Second Line Equipment  shall pass in accordance  with the
          delivery of the equipment to Hydrogel FOB Dicon's factory.

     h.   Shipping Terms.  All equipment shall be shipped FOB Dicon's factory at
          3-00 Banta Place  Fairlawn,  New Jersey.  Hydrogel shall pay the cost,
          insurance  and freight  necessary to bring the  equipment to the named
          destination.

     i.   Services. At no additional charge, Dicon representatives shall provide
          reasonable  assistance to Hydrogel in the placement and re-assembly of
          any equipment;  provided, however, that the Hydrogel facility shall be
          ready  to  accept  the  equipment  and  Hydrogel  shall  have  readily
          available all necessary utilities, and shall provide, at its sole cost
          and expense, all machinery, labor and other services necessary for the
          installation  of the  equipment.  Hydrogel  agrees  to have  ready and
          available  sufficient  labor and  appropriate  raw  materials  for the
          initial  start-up and line  testing of the  equipment,  including  any
          additional  equipment  necessary for the production line. Dicon agrees
          to  provide  Hydrogel  raw  materials,  up  to a  maximum  of  $5,000,
          necessary for initial start-up operations of the First Line Equipment.
          All  employees or  representatives  of Dicon shall at all times remain
          under Dicon's supervision and control.

                                       3
<PAGE>

          Upon  reasonable  prior  notice  by  Dicon,  Hydrogel  agrees  to send
          qualified  employees to Dicon's  facility in New Jersey to observe the
          final breakdown of the equipment and to familiarize  Hydrogel with the
          line layout and to begin operational training.  All costs and expenses
          of the Hydrogel  representatives  in connection  with their travel and
          stay shall be the responsibility of Hydrogel. Additionally,  following
          successful  start-up and initial line testing,  Dicon  representatives
          shall provide,  at no additional  charge,  reasonable support services
          for 30 days.  Thereafter,  support  services  shall be at agreed  upon
          additional charges.

     j.   LIMITED WARRANTY;  Hydrogel's Responsibility.  Dicon warrants that the
          equipment,  at the time of the installation and demonstration pursuant
          hereto, will conform  substantially to the product  specifications set
          forth  in  Appendix  E for  the  First  Line  Equipment,  the  product
          specifications  set forth in Appendix G for the Second Line Equipment,
          and be in  working  order.  DICON  MAKES NO OTHER  REPRESENTATIONS  OR
          WARRANTIES  EXPRESS OR IMPLIED  WITH  RESPECT  TO THE  EQUIPMENT,  AND
          EXPRESSLY  DISCLAIMS  WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY  AND FITNESS FOR A
          PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  ALL OTHER WARRANTIES,  CONDITIONS OR LIABILITIES,
          EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,  BY OPERATION OF LAW OR  OTHERWISE,  ARE EXPRESSLY
          EXCLUDED AND WAIVED BY Hydrogel. It shall be Hydrogel's responsibility
          to ensure that the  equipment is operated in a proper and safe manner.
          Hydrogel   acknowledges  that  it  shall  be  solely  responsible  for
          providing the necessary  utilities  (hot and cold water,  electricity,
          pneumatic service, ventilation, heating, and cooling).

     k.   Supply of  Pre-Polymer.  During the Term hereof,  Dicon agrees to make
          arrangements  to dropship  pre-polymer  to  Hydrogel  from its current
          vendor to be used by Hydrogel in connection  with its  manufacture  of
          the  Licensed  Products,  all at prices and upon such other  terms and
          conditions as the parties shall mutually agree upon from time to time.
          Payment terms for any  pre-polymer  that is shipped to Hydrogel  under
          this  subsection 2k shall be net forty-five (45) days from the date of
          Dicon's invoice to Hydrogel.  Any such dropship  arrangement  shall at
          all times remain subject to the reasonable availability of pre-polymer
          from such vendor and terms and  conditions  of sale  imposed by vendor
          which are acceptable to Dicon in its discretion.

3. MANUFACTURE AND DISTRIBUTION RIGHTS.

     a.   Grant of  Exclusive  License;  Limitations.  Dicon  hereby  grants  to
          Hydrogel,  and Hydrogel hereby accepts, a non-transferable,  exclusive
          license (the "License") in and to the Patents listed in Appendix B and
          the  Trademarks  listed  in  Appendix  C  solely  for the  purpose  of
          manufacture  by Hydrogel in the USA, and a  non-exclusive  license for
          the sale and  distribution  of Licensed  Products to  customers in the
          Territory  for  end-users  located in the Territory and outside of the
          Territory  as   specifically   permitted  by  Dicon  below.   Hydrogel
          acknowledges and agrees that nothing contained in this Agreement shall
          prevent or restrict Dicon, directly or indirectly,  from manufacturing
          any of the Licensed  Products for sale or distributing  outside of the
          Territory or for the purpose of filling  orders or demand for Licensed
          Products in the Territory  which  Hydrogel,  for whatever  reason,  is
          unable to meet or satisfy.

          Except as expressly  provided  below,  the License  granted  hereby is
          expressly  limited  to  the  manufacture,  sale  and  distribution  of
          Licensed  Products to customers in the Territory for end-users located
          in the  Territory  or as  component  parts for  products for which the
          end-users are located in the Territory. Every other manufacture,  sale
          and/or  distribution of Licensed  Products shall require Dicon's prior
          written consent in every instance, which consent Dicon may exercise in
          its sole  discretion;  provided,  however,  if Hydrogel  introduces  a
          substantial account for the sale and distribution of Licensed Products
          outside  of the  Territory,  then  Dicon  agrees  not to  unreasonably
          withhold its consent,  subject, at all times, to Hydrogel's payment of

                                       4
<PAGE>

          the  Royalties  set forth  herein for any such sales.  Dicon agrees in
          good  faith  to  review  any  proposal  by  Hydrogel  for any  sale or
          marketing of Licensed Products by it outside the Territory,  but Dicon
          shall have no obligation to grant any additional  rights  hereunder to
          Hydrogel  that  Dicon  does  not  deem  to be in  its  best  interest.
          Additionally,  it is expressly  understood and agreed that any refusal
          by Dicon to consent to  Hydrogel's  sale or  distribution  of Licensed
          Products to any territory for which Dicon has granted or  contemplates
          granting  one or more  licenses  or  distribution  rights to any other
          party shall be  reasonable.  Should  Hydrogel  discover  that Licensed
          Products are being  distributed  or sold  outside of the  Territory in
          violation of this Agreement,  Hydrogel shall immediately  notify Dicon
          thereof and unless Dicon shall  expressly  consent thereto in writing,
          Hydrogel shall cause such  distributor  or seller,  with whom it has a
          direct  relationship,  to  cease  to  use,  distribute  or  sell  such
          products.

     b.   Grant of Non-Exclusive License - Dryz; Limitations. Effective upon the
          purchase by Hydrogel of the Second  Line  Equipment,  Dicon  grants to
          Hydrogel,   and   Hydrogel   hereby   accepts,   a   non-transferable,
          non-exclusive  license (the "Dryz License") in and to the Dryz Patents
          necessary  to and  solely  for  the  purpose  of  manufacture  of Dryz
          Products  for  Dicon's  or any of the  H.H.  Brown  Parties'  sale and
          distribution  to end-users  located in the United States and otherwise
          on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

          The  Dryz  License   granted  hereby  is  expressly   limited  to  the
          manufacture  of Dryz  Products  for Dicon or H.H.  Brown  Parties  for
          end-users  located in the Territory or as component parts for products
          for which the  end-users  are  located in the  Territory.  Every other
          manufacture  or other use of the Dryz Patents or Dryz  Products  shall
          require Dicon's prior written consent in every instance, which consent
          Dicon may exercise in its sole discretion

     c.   No Sublicensing.  The license granted hereby may not be transferred or
          sublicensed by Hydrogel;  provided,  however,  Hydrogel shall have the
          right,  upon prior  notice in  writing  to Dicon,  to cause any of the
          Hydrogel  Parties to  manufacture,  sell and  distribute  the Licensed
          Products  in the  Territory.  Hydrogel  shall  not have  the  Licensed
          Products  or Dryz  Products  manufactured  for it by any  third  party
          without the prior written consent of Dicon.

     d.   Reserved Rights.  Rights not herein  specifically  granted to Hydrogel
          are  reserved  by Dicon and may be used by Dicon  without  limitation.
          Nothing in this Agreement  shall be construed as conveying,  expressly
          or by  implication,  any  right  under  any of  Dicon's  Know-How  and
          intellectual  property  except in connection with the right to use the
          Technology,  Trademarks and Patents to  manufacture  and sell Licensed
          Products  pursuant  to the terms  hereof and the right to use the Dryz
          Patents to manufacture Dryz Products pursuant to the terms hereof. Any
          use by Dicon of such reserved rights, including but not limited to the
          use or  authorization  of the use of the  Technology,  Trademarks  and
          Patents,  including the Dryz  Patents,  in any manner  whatsoever  not
          inconsistent with Hydrogel's rights under this Agreement, shall not be
          deemed to be  interference  with or  infringement of any of Hydrogel's
          rights. The parties  acknowledge and agree that Dicon will continue to
          offer,  sell  and  distribute  Licensed  Products  and  Dryz  Products
          worldwide as end-products  and/or component  parts,  which may include
          all or part of the  Territory.  Nothing  in this  Agreement  shall  be
          construed as conveying,  expressly or by  implication,  any of Dicon's
          rights and obligations to manufacture and supply or have  manufactured
          or supplied that certain  medicated  brace  insert,  including any new
          technology related thereto, for the account of Chattem,  Inc. for sale
          and  distribution  worldwide,  including all or part of the Territory,
          and  any  use of  such  reserved  rights  shall  not be  deemed  to be
          interference   with  or  infringement  of  any  of  Hydrogel's  rights
          hereunder.

     e.   Royalties - Licensed  Products.  Except as otherwise  provided in this
          Agreement,  in  consideration  of the license herein  granted,  and in
          addition  to the fixed  payments  provided  for in  Section  1c above,
          Hydrogel  shall pay to Dicon  continuing  royalties  from seven to ten
          percent (7- 10%) of the Net Selling  Price,  all as determined in good
          faith by Dicon taking into  consideration the type of Licensed Product
          and the content of the Licensed Product.

          For purposes of this Agreement,  "Net Selling Price" means the amounts
          actually  billed on sales of Licensed  Products after  deducting sales
          taxes and  shipping  costs.  The  revenues  received  from any  Direct
          Purchase (as defined below) shall not be included.

     f.   Direct  Purchases by Dicon.  For any purchase of Licensed  Products or
          Dryz  Products by Dicon,  any HH Brown Party or Dicon's  licensees  or
          authorized  agents  (a  "Direct   Purchase"),   the  prices  shall  be
          determined in accordance  with subsection 3g below.  Unless  otherwise
          agreed to in writing by Dicon and Hydrogel,  no royalties shall be due
          and  payable  by  Hydrogel  to Dicon  in  connection  with any  Direct
          Purchase.

     g.   Pricing - Direct  Purchases.  The pricing  for any Direct  Purchase is
          specified  in Appendix H attached to this  Agreement  or as  otherwise
          determined by mutual agreement of the parties hereto from time to time
          and confirmed in a writing signed by both parties.

     h.   Direct Purchase  Estimates.  During the first year of the Term hereof,
          Dicon estimates the amount of Direct Purchases of Licensed Products to
          be  $250,000 - $750,000,  more or less.  During the second year of the
          Term  hereof,  Dicon  estimates  the  amount  of Direct  Purchases  of
          Licensed  Products to be $750,000 -  $1,000,000,  more or less.  These
          estimates  are  provided  at  the  request  of  Hydrogel  and  do  not
          constitute purchase guarantees or minimum purchase  quantities.  These
          figures are estimates only and are not binding on any HH Brown Parties
          and shall not constitute any  representation,  warranty or covenant on
          the part of any HH Brown  Parties to order  and/or  purchase  Licensed
          Products from  Hydrogel.  Dicon shall have no liability  whatsoever to
          Hydrogel in connection with the estimates contained in this paragraph.

     i.   Payments;  Statements.   Royalties  shall  accrue  when  any  Licensed
          Products  are  invoiced or shipped,  whichever  is earlier.  Royalties
          shall be paid by Hydrogel within thirty (30) days following the end of
          each month,  beginning  with the end of the first full  month.  Unless
          otherwise  directed by Dicon,  all payments of royalties shall be made
          to Dicon by wire transfer to an account  designated by Dicon,  without
          deduction  for  taxes,  assessments,  or other  charges  which  may be
          imposed  on  Dicon  by any  governmental  authority  or any  political
          subdivision  thereof  with  respect  to any  amounts  payable to Dicon
          pursuant to this Agreement,  and without deduction for banking or wire
          transfer  fees.  With each payment of  royalties,  Hydrogel  agrees to
          furnish to Dicon a written statement, showing, the stock number, item,
          units  sold,   description,   quantity  shipped,  gross  invoice,  and
          reportable  sales of Licensed  Products  sold by Hydrogel  during such
          month,  including  customer  names and the amount of royalties due for
          such period.

          For Direct  Purchases by any HH Brown Parties,  payment terms shall be
          net thirty (30) days from date of invoice.  For any payments by any of
          the HH Brown Parties made within ten (10) days from date of invoice, a
          discount of two percent (2%) of the invoiced amount shall apply.

     j.   Records.  Hydrogel will at all times during the term of this Agreement
          keep accurate books of account and other records  reflecting all sales
          of the Licensed Products, and will carefully prepare and maintain such
          books  and  records  for  at  least  five  (5)  years   following  the
          termination of this Agreement.  Hydrogel hereby grants to Dicon or its
          representatives the right to inspect and make copies of such books and
          records for the purpose of  ascertaining or confirming the accuracy of
          statements made under this Agreement.

                                       6

     k.   Term.  This  Agreement  shall begin on the date of this  Agreement and
          continue for a period of three (3) years,  unless sooner terminated as
          provided  herein.  Provided that Hydrogel is not in uncured  breach of
          this Agreement on the  expiration of the initial term,  this Agreement
          shall  automatically  renew  for  one  (1)  period  of two  (2)  years
          (hereinafter  the  extension  term)  commencing  as of the  end of the
          initial  term and  ending  on the last  day of the  extension  term at
          midnight  Eastern  Standard Time,  unless sooner  terminated  pursuant
          hereto. Thereafter,  unless either party shall provide the other party
          with notice of its intent to terminate  this  Agreement  within ninety
          (90) prior to the  expiration of the extension  term, the term of this
          Agreement shall  automatically renew for successive periods of one (1)
          year each (each an "additional  extension term")  commencing as of the
          end of the extension term,  unless sooner  terminated  pursuant hereto
          and provided, however, that during any such additional extension term,
          either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon 120
          days written  notice to the other party of its  intention to terminate
          this Agreement. Any such additional extension term shall be subject to
          the same terms and  conditions as provided  herein.  The initial term,
          any extension term and any additional  extension term are  hereinafter
          sometimes collectively referred to as the "Term".

4. ADDITIONAL HYDROGEL RESPONSIBILITIES, COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS.

     a.   Best  Efforts.  Hydrogel  will  use its  commercial  best  efforts  to
          continuously  manufacture,  sell and  distribute  to meet  orders  for
          Licensed  Products  and  Dryz  Products.  Hydrogel  shall  not make or
          authorize  any  use,  direct  or  indirect,  like or  similar,  of the
          Technology, Patents, Dryz Patents, or Trademarks, Licensed Products or
          Dryz  Products,  outside of the Territory or in  contravention  of its
          rights  hereunder  and will not knowingly  sell  Licensed  Products to
          persons,  other than  Dicon,  who intend or are likely to resell  them
          outside of the Territory.

     b.   Conduct of Business.  Hydrogel  warrants to Dicon that it will conduct
          its business hereunder in a manner that reflects only favorably on the
          quality image of the Trademarks,  Licensed Products and Dryz Products.
          Hydrogel will not (a) do any act or thing which may in the  reasonable
          opinion  of Dicon  (i)  bring  Dicon or its  products  into  contempt,
          disrepute  or ridicule or (ii)  portray any of these in a manner which
          is or can be reasonably  construed as being offensive or unsafe (e.g.,
          encourage unsafe use or application, etc.); or (b) do or assist in any
          act which, in the opinion of Dicon, damages or tarnishes the goodwill,
          image,  or  reputation  of the  Trademarks,  Licensed  Products,  Dryz
          Products  and  their  respective  trademarks  and  products.  Hydrogel
          recognizes the  importance for Dicon to maintain the image  associated
          with the  Licensed  Products,  Dryz  Products and  Trademarks  and the
          goodwill associated with the Trademarks and undertakes not to sell the
          Licensed Products to parties which may adversely affect the said image
          and goodwill,  such parties to be determined  from time to time at the
          discretion of Dicon.

     c.   Labeling.   Hydrogel  agrees,  as  an  essential   condition  of  this
          Agreement, that it will cause to appear in the appropriate place on or
          within each of the Licensed  Products sold and distributed by it or on
          Hydrogel's  behalf or for the account of Hydrogel under this Agreement
          and on or within all tags, labels, packaging, advertising, promotional
          and display materials bearing an appropriate trademark or service mark
          ownership  notice  and such other  legends,  markings  and  notices in
          accordance with the guidelines  adopted by Dicon from time to time and
          communicated to Hydrogel and as may be reasonably  required by Dicon's
          legal counsel or by law to give appropriate  notice of all trademarks,
          trade  name,  patents,  patents  pending  or other  rights  therein or
          pertaining thereto.

     d.   Quality Control;  Quality  Submissions;  Approval;  Inspection Rights.
          Hydrogel  hereby  covenants and agrees that the Licensed  Products and
          Dryz Products  covered by this Agreement shall be of high standard and
          of such quality,  style and  appearance at least equal to the quality,
          design,  material and  workmanship  of the  Licensed  Products or Dryz
          Products or comparable products  manufactured and distributed by Dicon
          on the date hereof and at any time during the Term; that such products
          will be manufactured,  packaged,  sold and distributed and advertised,
          as applicable,  in accordance with all applicable  (whether  national,
          federal,  state,  provisional  or local) laws;  and that the policy of
          sale,  distribution and/or exploitation by or on behalf of Hydrogel of
          the  Licensed  Products  shall  be of high  standard  and to the  best
          advance of said Trademarks and any trademarks associated therewith and
          that the same shall in no manner in the sole and  reasonable  judgment
          of Dicon be offensive to good taste,  reflect  adversely upon the good
          name of  Dicon or of any of its  programs  or said  Trademarks  or the
          value of any of these. Any carton, container and packaging or wrapping
          material,  if the Trademarks  appear thereon,  shall be of first class
          merchantable   quality   consistent   with   manufacturing   standards
          prevailing  in the  industry  and shall be subject to the  approval of
          Dicon as set forth below. Dicon shall be entitled to reject any design
          which it deems  offensive to good taste or  incompatible  with Dicon's
          brand image.

          Prior to any  production  of the  Licensed  Products or Dryz  Products
          and/or  use of any  Trademarks  and the  sale or  distribution  of any
          Licensed  Products,   Hydrogel  shall  obtain  Dicon's  prior  written
          approval of the  specifications  for first  production  runs and shall
          provide  Dicon's  designate  with  appropriate  information  and first
          production  samples of any products  covered by this agreement and any
          proposed packaging, advertising, and literature which Hydrogel intends
          to use in merchandising Licensed Products (the "Quality Submissions"),
          and such other samples and information as Dicon may reasonably request
          from time to time.  No  Quality  Submissions  will be  approved  until
          Dicon's  designate  has  provided  express  approval  of the  same  in
          writing.  Dicon will use  reasonable  efforts to approve or disapprove
          any Quality  Submissions within ten (10) days from its receipt of such
          submissions.  If a response is not received by Hydrogel after such ten
          day period,  then  Hydrogel  shall be entitled to give Dicon notice in
          writing of its  inaction  and, if Dicon fails to respond with ten (10)
          days from  such  notice,  the  submissions  shall be  deemed  approved
          hereunder. Without the prior written approval of Dicon, Hydrogel shall
          not sell or distribute  any Licensed  Products  which deviate from the
          approved  License  Quality  Submissions  more than the deviation which
          would  occur  as  a  result  of  normal  deviations  in  raw  material
          characteristics  and manufacture.  Hydrogel shall  immediately  notify
          Dicon of any changes made in the Licensed Products or its packaging or
          advertising  materials  during the term of this  Agreement  and submit
          production  samples  thereof to Dicon for its  approval in  accordance
          with this  Agreement.  Hydrogel agrees to notify Dicon promptly of any
          material change in manufacturing, shipping or selling locations.

          Hydrogel shall comply with all laws and  regulations of all applicable
          jurisdictions  relating to the  manufacture,  sale and distribution of
          the Licensed Products and Dryz Products, as applicable. Hydrogel will,
          at its  expense,  promptly  undertake  such  registration,  recording,
          validation  or  reporting.  Hydrogel  will  supply  prompt  notice and
          appropriate   verification  of  any  such   registration,   recording,
          validation  or reporting and any agency  ruling  resulting  therefrom.
          Hydrogel agrees that it will not violate any applicable United States,
          foreign or international labor laws or treaties, including child labor
          laws.

          Hydrogel   agrees   to   permit,   from   time  to  time,   designated
          representatives of Dicon to inspect the office and factory premises of
          Hydrogel  as well as any other  selling,  manufacturing  and  shipping
          locations  where  the  Licensed  Products  and/or  Dryz  Products  are

                                       8
<PAGE>

          produced,  shipped,  sold or kept by Hydrogel, on behalf of or for the
          account of Hydrogel, at reasonable times during normal business hours,
          for examination of such Licensed  Products and/or Dryz Products as may
          be  licensed  hereunder  in  connection  with which  Hydrogel  uses or
          intends to use said  Trademarks  and for the purpose of enabling Dicon
          to determine whether or not Hydrogel is meeting  acceptable  standards
          of quality.

     e.   Title and Protection of Patents and Trademarks. Hydrogel agrees not to
          seek any  United  States  or  foreign  patent  or  trademark  or other
          protection  for the  Patents,  Dryz  Patents,  and  Trademarks  or the
          Technology as they are used in connection  with the rights of Hydrogel
          under this  Agreement  and agrees  that its use of the  Patents,  Dryz
          Patents,  Trademarks  and the  Technology  is for the sole  benefit of
          Dicon.  Hydrogel  agrees to assist Dicon, at Dicon's  expense,  to the
          extent  necessary in the  procurement  of any protection or to protect
          any of Dicon's rights to the Trademarks, Patents, Dryz Patents and the
          Technology,  including  any patents that have  issued,  or will issue,
          from any continuation, improvement, continuation-in-part,  divisional,
          parent,  reissue,  or reexamination  application of any Patent, or any
          patent  or  foreign  equivalent  to or based  upon  any  such  patent.
          Hydrogel  agrees to execute and deliver to Dicon in such form as Dicon
          shall reasonably request, any and all documents which may be necessary
          or desirable to assist Dicon in  recording  any  Trademark,  Patent or
          Dryz Patent in the Territory.

          Hydrogel  agrees  that it will not at any  time  use a shape,  mark or
          design identical with or confusingly similar to any of the Trademarks.
          Hydrogel agrees not to contest the validity of the Patents, Trademarks
          or any rights of Dicon therein,  nor shall Hydrogel  become an adverse
          party in  litigation  in  which  others  shall  contest  the  Patents,
          Trademarks or Dicon's rights  thereto.  In the event Hydrogel  obtains
          trademark protection by way of registrations or the like or in any way
          whatsoever  with respect to the Trademarks said  registrations  or the
          like and  trademarks  shall be  promptly  assigned to Dicon or Dicon's
          designee.

     f.   Confidentiality.  Hydrogel agrees, on behalf of itself, its directors,
          officers, employees, agents, representatives and affiliates to hold in
          strict confidence and not disclose, publish, reveal to any third party
          or use for its own benefit, except as permitted in furtherance of this
          Agreement,  any confidential  information of Dicon, unless required to
          do so by law. For purposes of this Agreement,  the term  "confidential
          information" shall mean any information  disclosed by one party to the
          other which:

               (i)  at the time of disclosure, is not in the public domain;

               (ii) at the  time of  disclosure,  is not  already  known  to the
                    non-disclosing party and documented by such party;

               (iii) is not rightfully in the possession of the disclosing party
                    from a third  party who was not in breach of any  obligation
                    of confidentiality to the non-disclosing party; or

               (iv) is not the subject of a subpoena or demand of any court,  or
                    governmental or administrative body or agency, provided that
                    the   disclosing    party   shall   promptly    notify   the
                    non-disclosing party of such subpoena or demand.

          Notwithstanding  anything to the  contrary  contained  in this Section
          4(f), Hydrogel shall be permitted to disclose confidential information
          as follows:

               (A)  To  Hydrogel's   representatives   who  need  to  know  such
                    confidential  information  for the purpose of  administering
                    Hydrogel's  rights and  obligations  under  this  Agreement.
                    Hydrogel  agrees  to cause  its  representatives  to whom it
                    discloses   confidential   material   to  comply   with  the

                                       9
<PAGE>

                    restrictions  on the use and  disclosure  thereof  contained
                    herein  to the same  extent  as such  restrictions  apply to
                    Hydrogel.

               (B)  To any investor, or material credit enhancer or other person
                    that is,  or is  contemplating,  investing  in or  financing
                    Hydrogel's  activities  hereunder,  but  only as  reasonably
                    necessary for the specific purpose thereof and provided that
                    such  person   agrees  in  writing  to  limit  its  use  and
                    disclosure  of such  confidential  information  on terms not
                    less  restrictive  in any  material  respect  than the terms
                    hereof,   and  further  provided  that  Dicon  is  expressly
                    designated  as  a  third  party   beneficiary  of  any  such
                    agreement.

               (C)  To the extent  necessary or desirable to establish,  enforce
                    or assert  any claims or  defenses  in  connection  with any
                    legal proceeding by or against  Hydrogel,  provided Hydrogel
                    will  promptly  notify  Dicon  thereof  and  use  reasonable
                    efforts  to obtain  protective  measures  to  safeguard  the
                    confidential information.

               (D)  To  auditors,  reviewers  or  examiners in the course of any
                    internal or external  audit,  review or examination of us or
                    any  of  our   affiliates,   provided  that  such  auditors,
                    reviewers or examiners  are required by law,  regulation  or
                    policy to keep such information confidential.

               (E)  To the extent otherwise required by law,  regulation,  legal
                    process  or  requested  by any  governmental  or  regulatory
                    authority;    provided,   that   Hydrogel   shall   exercise
                    commercially reasonable efforts to (A) promptly notify Dicon
                    in  order  to  provide  Dicon  an  opportunity  to seek  any
                    available   protective   order;   (ii)  provide  Dicon  with
                    reasonable cooperation, upon reasonable request by Dicon and
                    at Dicon's  expense;  and (iii) disclose only the portion of
                    Dicon's  confidential  information  that is  required  to be
                    disclosed under such law, regulation or order.

     g.   Non-Solicitation.  Each party to this  agreement  covenants and agrees
          that during the Term of this  agreement  and in any event for a period
          of  eighteen  (18)  months  thereafter,   it  will  not,  directly  or
          indirectly,  hire,  solicit to hire,  assist others to hire, or assist
          others to solicit to hire,  any  person who is or was an  employee  or
          agent of the other party at any time during the Term hereof.

     h.   Specific   Performance.   Without  intending  to  limit  the  remedies
          available to Dicon,  Hydrogel  acknowledges and agrees that any breach
          by it of the terms of Sections 4f and 4g of this agreement will result
          in immediate irreparable injury to Dicon for which Dicon will not have
          an adequate remedy at law. Hydrogel further agrees that Dicon shall be
          entitled  to  obtain  immediate  injunctive  relief  in any  court  of
          competent jurisdiction to restrain the breach or threatened breach of,
          or otherwise to specifically  enforce,  any of the covenants contained
          in such section,  without the necessity of proving  irreparable injury
          or the inadequacy of monetary damages.

5. TERMINATION.

     a.   If either party violates any of its  obligations  under this Agreement
          or  otherwise  breach  this  Agreement,  the other  party may give the
          defaulting  party written  notice of such default.  If the  defaulting
          party shall fail or refuse to remedy such default  within  thirty (30)
          days from the date of said notice, this Agreement may be terminated by
          a second written notice and said termination  shall be effective as of
          the date of the second  notice of default,  subject to a party's right
          to demand  resolution of any dispute or  controversy  concerning  such

                                       10
<PAGE>

          termination  or  otherwise  by  arbitration,  all in  accordance  with
          Sections 8 and 9 hereof.  Notwithstanding,  Hydrogel shall be entitled
          to only ten (10) days to remedy any violation or breach by Hydrogel of
          any payment obligation, restrictive covenant or any agreement relating
          to the Trademarks, Patents, Dryz Patents and Know-How, and Dicon shall
          be  required  to give no more than two (2)  notices in any twelve (12)
          month period of any breach by Hydrogel of a payment  obligation before
          Dicon shall have the right to  immediately  terminate  this  Agreement
          upon  written  notice to  Hydrogel  for any  subsequent  default  of a
          payment  obligation during such period.  Any such termination shall be
          without  prejudice to any other rights or claims the  aggrieved  party
          may have against the defaulting  party.  Defaults under this Agreement
          shall be deemed to include, but shall not be limited to:

               i.   failure by either  party to fulfill  any of its  obligations
                    under this Agreement;

               ii.  cessation   by   Hydrogel  of  its   manufacture,   sale  or
                    distribution  of Licensed  Products  and/or Dryz Products in
                    the normal  course of business  for a  continuous  period of
                    sixty (60) days.

               iii. an  adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency of either party
                    under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, the appointment of a
                    receiver  for its  business or any of its  property,  or the
                    making  of  any  general   assignment  for  the  benefit  of
                    creditors; or

               iv.  the sale or disposition by Hydrogel of substantially  all of
                    its  assets,  stock  or  stock  equivalents  or the  sale or
                    disposition  of a  controlling  interest in the ownership of
                    Hydrogel.

          In addition, either party may, immediately upon notice, terminate this
          Agreement in its entirety or with respect to any particular license or
          right granted  hereunder if the normal  conduct of the business of the
          other party as a private enterprise ceases or is substantially altered
          as a consequence of action taken by governmental or other authority.

6. HOLD HARMLESS.

     a.   Hydrogel. Hydrogel and the Hydrogel Subsidiary, jointly and severally,
          agree to indemnify,  to defend and to hold harmless  Dicon from claims
          of third persons either:

               i.   proximately  caused by the fault or  negligence  of Hydrogel
                    and/or  the  Hydrogel  Subsidiary,  any or  their  officers,
                    employees or agents; or

               ii.  which relates to any customer disputes or claims relating to
                    the    manufacture,     marketing,    sale,    distribution,
                    installation,  training or service of any Licensed  Products
                    or the performance thereof; or

               iii. which  relates to any other  failure by Hydrogel  and/or the
                    Hydrogel  Subsidiary  to  comply  with  any  terms  of  this
                    Agreement; or

               iv.  which relates to any failure by Hydrogel and or the Hydrogel
                    Subsidiary to comply with applicable laws and/or regulations
                    in the  manufacture,  distribution  and sale of the Licensed
                    Products.

     b.   Dicon.  Dicon  agrees to  indemnify,  to defend  and to hold  harmless
          Hydrogel,  from claims of third  persons  arising out of any actual or
          alleged infringement of any patent or trademark by any of the Patents,
          Dryz   Patents  or   Trademarks   listed  on  Appendix  B,  C  and  D,
          respectively.  Hydrogel  shall notify  Dicon of any such  infringement

                                       11
<PAGE>

          suit, action or claim promptly upon receiving notice or being informed
          of the existence thereof. Upon such notice from Hydrogel,  Dicon shall
          promptly  take such action as may be  necessary  to protect and defend
          Hydrogel against such suit, action, claim, judgment,  debt, obligation
          or right of action,  and shall indemnify Hydrogel against any costs or
          expenses  incurred in  connection  therewith.  Hydrogel  shall have no
          power or authority to settle or  compromise  any such suit,  action or
          claim and Hydrogel  agrees to cooperate fully with DICON in connection
          with the defense thereof.

7. INSURANCE.

          Each  Hydrogel  party shall  purchase and shall  maintain at all times
          during the Term of this Agreement,  insurance against public liability
          including  products liability coverage with limits of liability of not
          less than $2 million combined single limit (bodily injury and property
          damage),  naming Dicon as an additional insured in connection with the
          manufacture,  sale and  distribution of the Licensed  Products,  which
          insurance shall carry an endorsement to the effect that the same shall
          not be  cancelled  by the  insurer  without at least  twenty (20) days
          prior notice to Dicon by registered mail.  Hydrogel shall supply Dicon
          with  proof of such  insurance  at the time of the  execution  of this
          Agreement  and  from  time to time  thereafter  as such  policies  are
          renewed and at any other reasonable time requested by Dicon.

8. MISCELLANEOUS.

     a.   Joint and Several  Liability.  Hydrogel  and the  Hydrogel  Subsidiary
          shall  be  jointly  and  severally  liable  for any  and all of  their
          respective  obligations and liabilities under this Agreement. A breach
          by Hydrogel or the Hydrogel Subsidiary under this Agreement shall also
          constitute  a breach by the other  party  and shall  entitle  Dicon to
          exercise all of its rights and remedies  under this  Agreement  and at
          law or in equity against Hydrogel or the Hydrogel Subsidiary, or both.

     b.   Notice of Sale.  If at any time during the Term hereof (i) Dicon shall
          desire to sell all or substantially all of the Know How related to the
          Licensed  Products to a person or entity other than a sale or transfer
          to an affiliate  of Dicon or as a result of a merger or  consolidation
          resulting in Dicon or a Dicon affiliate having a controlling  interest
          in the  surviving  entity,  or (ii) Dicon shall desire to grant future
          licenses  for  the  Territory  for  related  technologies  that it may
          develop,  and  provided  that  Hydrogel  is not then in breach of this
          Agreement, Dicon agrees that it shall provide Hydrogel with sufficient
          notice of any such sale or licensing opportunity to permit Hydrogel to
          enter into  discussions  with Dicon  concerning  such  opportunity and
          Dicon further agrees that it shall in good faith review any reasonable
          written offer by Hydrogel concerning any such opportunity.

     c.   Entire Agreement;  Amendment.  This Agreement,  including any Appendix
          referenced  in this  Agreement,  represents  the entire  agreement and
          understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter
          hereof and supersedes all other prior agreements,  understandings  and
          communications,   whether  oral  or  written.  No  provision  of  this
          Agreement may be amended, revoked or waived except by a writing signed
          by a duly authorized representative of each party to this Agreement.

     d.   Governing  Law.  This  Agreement and the  relationship  of the parties
          hereto  shall be governed in all  respects by the laws of the State of
          Connecticut, United States of America, except that questions affecting
          the  validity,   construction  and  effect  of  any  patent  shall  be
          determined  by the law of the  country  in which the  patent  has been
          granted.   In  the  event  of  any  controversy  between  the  parties
          respecting  the  interpretation  or  application  of the terms of this
          Agreement,  the  procedures  in Section 9 of this  Agreement  shall be
          followed.

                                       12

     e.   Assignment.  This  Agreement  shall not be assigned by Hydrogel or the
          Hydrogel Subsidiary.

     f.   Notices.  Any notice  required to be given  hereunder  shall be deemed
          sufficient and delivery shall be deemed complete if sent by registered
          or certified Air Mail or messenger  service that can certify  delivery

9. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.

     a.   Except for  Dicon's  rights to seek  injunctive  relief as provided in
          Section 4h of this agreement,  all disputes and controversies  between
          the  parties  hereto of every  kind and  nature  arising  out of or in
          connection  with this  Agreement  shall be resolved by  arbitration in
          Bergen  County,  New Jersey,  United States of America,  within thirty
          (30)  days  after the  dispute  is  submitted  to an  arbitrator.  The
          Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration  Association  applicable
          to  Commercial   Disputes   shall  be  utilized  in  the   arbitration
          proceedings.  The  arbitration  hearing  shall be  conducted  before a
          single arbitrator with experience in commercial matters to be selected
          by the  parties  within  fifteen  (15) days of the  formal  demand for
          arbitration  by a party.  If the disputing  parties cannot within such
          time agree on an  arbitrator,  the  arbitrator  shall be chosen  under
          American  Arbitration   Association  procedures  from  its  panels  of
          arbitrators with commercial experience.

     b.   The arbitration  hearing shall be concluded in not more than three (3)
          days  unless  otherwise  ordered by the  arbitrator.  The award on the
          hearing  shall be made within  thirty (30) days after the close of the
          submission of evidence at or in connection with the hearing.  An award
          rendered by the arbitrator  appointed pursuant to this Agreement shall
          be final and  binding on the parties to such  proceeding.  Judgment on
          such  award may be  entered  by any of the  disputing  parties  in the
          highest court having jurisdiction in any country.

     c.   The parties shall each bear all of their respective  arbitration costs
          and expenses,  provided, however, that the parties shall share equally
          the costs and  expenses of the  arbitrator.  The failure or refusal of
          any party  hereto to submit to  arbitration  in  accordance  with this
          Agreement shall be deemed a breach of this Agreement.

IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the parties  have caused this  Agreement to be executed by
their duly authorized officers as of the day and year first above written.
