Section  8.02.

     (b)  Termination  for  Cause.  In  the  event  that  Licensee  shall file a
voluntary  petition in bankruptcy or for reorganization of indebtedness, or that
Licensee  should,  for  a  period  of more than ninety days be the subject of an
involuntary  bankruptcy proceeding or receivership over all or substantially all
of  Licensee's  assets,  or that Licensee or any Officer or Director of Licensee
should be found guilty of a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude, or that

from  the  obligations  of  either  party  contained  herein.

     (e)  Termination  of  this Agreement cancels any rights granted to Licensee
herein.

     2.02     NATURE  OF  RELATIONSHIP.  (a)  This Agreement does not constitute
nor empower the Licensee as the agent or legal representative of Grantor for any
purpose  whatsoever.  Licensee  is  and  will  continue  to  be  an  independent
contractor.

     (b)  The  arrangement created by this Agreement is not, and is not intended
to  be,  a  franchise  or  business opportunity under the United States' Federal
Trade  Commission  Rule:  Disclosure  Requirements  and  Prohibitions Concerning
Franchising  and  Business Opportunity Ventures and is not a franchise, business
opportunity  or  seller assisted marketing plan or similar arrangement under any
other  federal,  state,  local  or  foreign  law,  rule  or  regulation;

     (c)  Licensee  shall  not  repackage  or  re-label Products for any reason,
except  as  may be allowed in any licensing agreement issued by Grantor, without
prior written authorization from Grantor. Notwithstanding the provisions of this
paragraph  2.03(c)  it  is  understood  by  Company that Licensee will repackage
Product  and  apply  Licensee's own label to the containers. The purpose of this
section  is  to  assure  that Licensee will not re-label any Product incorrectly
whereby  the  public  would be confused with the recommended use of the Product.

     (d)  Licensee  declares that it will not sell or offer for sale the product
Biocatalyst  for use in applications involving bioremediation of hydrocarbons or
where  microbes are used, enhanced or suggested for use without specific written
authorization  from Grantor. The language herein is not intended to prohibit the

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
Licensee's  use  of the Product for that purpose in remediation of cane bagasse,
silage,  compost,  trash  and  garbage,  or  other  organic waste and byproducts
remediation,  exclusive  of  remediation  of  petroleum-based  hydrocarbon
contamination.  Licensee  acknowledges  that  its  intended  use  of the product
"Biocatalyst"  for  remediation  of  cane  bagasse,  silage,  compost, trash and
garbage,  and  other  organic  waste  or byproducts, exclusive of remediation of
petroleum-based  hydrocarbon  contamination  has not been specifically tested by
Grantor and as a consequence of this is not included as a recommended use of the
product  Biocatalyst  by  Grantor.  Notwithstanding  the foregoing, both parties
acknowledge  that in bioremediation, Biocatalyst is specifically used to enhance
the growth of microbes in soils, particularly at depths where oxygen exchange is
limited.

Licensee and Grantor is of a special nature and further agrees on its own behalf
and  on  behalf of its Affiliated Persons that during the term of this Agreement

                 (ii) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding
                      up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary,

                      final distribution to shareholders, whether or not
                      declared, in each case before any payment shall be made or
                      any assets distributed to the holders of such other class
                      or series of Capital Stock of the Corporation.

     Section 3.  Dividends.

             (a) Series A Preferred Stock Dividend. The Holders of Series A
Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive dividends; provided, however,
that in the event the Board shall declare a dividend payable upon the
outstanding shares of Common Stock, the Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock
shall be entitled to the same amount of dividends per share of Series A
Preferred Stock as would be declared payable on the number of full or fractional
shares of Common Stock into which each such share of Series A Preferred Stock
could be converted pursuant to the provisions of Section 7(a) hereof, such
number determined as of the record date for the determination of holders of
Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend.

             (b) Series B Preferred Stock Dividend. (i) The Corporation shall,
to the extent that funds are legally available therefor (and whether or not
declared), pay cash dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock in an annual
amount per share computed by applying the Dividend Rate to the Liquidation
Preference of such share in effect from time to time. Such dividends shall
accrue (whether or not declared) on each share of Series B Preferred Stock from
and including the date of issuance of such share to but excluding the date on
which the Liquidation Preference is paid on such share or the date on which such
share is redeemed or converted and, to the extent not paid for any Dividend
Period (as defined below), will be cumulative. Subject to the above, dividends
on the Series B Preferred Stock shall be payable quarterly, in arrears, on March
31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year commencing on the first
such date to occur after the initial issuance of shares of Series B Preferred
Stock, except that if any such date is not a Business Day, then such dividend
shall be payable on the next succeeding Business Day. Each such dividend shall
be payable to the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock at the close of business
on the record date established by the Board, which record date shall be not more
than 60 days, nor less than 10 days, prior to the date fixed for payment
thereof. Quarterly dividend periods (each a "Dividend Period") shall commence on
and include the first day of January, April, July and October, as the case may
be, of each year and shall end on and include March 31, June 30, September 30
and December 31, respectively, of each year, with the first Dividend Period
commencing on the most recent Dividend Period commencement date to occur
immediately prior to the Initial Issuance of shares of Series B Preferred Stock.
The amount of dividends payable for any period shorter than a full Dividend
Period shall be computed on the basis of actual days elapsed and a 360-day year.
Dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall accrue on a daily basis whether
or not the Corporation shall have funds legally available for the payment
thereof at the time.

                                       6
<PAGE>

          (ii)   Except as otherwise provided herein, if at any time the
Corporation pays less than the total amount of dividends then accrued with
respect to the Series B Preferred Stock, such payment shall be distributed
ratably among the Holders of Series B Preferred Stock based upon the aggregate
accrued but unpaid dividends on the shares of Series B Preferred Stock held by
such Holders. Accrued and unpaid dividends on the Series B Preferred Stock shall
accrue additional dividends in respect thereof, compounded quarterly, at the
Dividend Rate.

          (iii)  So long as any dividends accrued, or otherwise then due and
payable, on the Series B Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 3(b) remain
unpaid, the Corporation shall not declare, pay or set apart for payment any
dividends or make any other distributions on any Junior Stock or Series A
Preferred Stock; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any
dividend or distribution payable solely in shares of Junior Stock or Series A
Preferred Stock as the case may be.

     Section 4.  Liquidation Preference.

             (a) In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the shares of Series A
Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock shall rank pari passu, and Holders
of shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, out of assets
of the Corporation available for distribution to shareholders, cash in an amount
for each share of Senior Preferred Stock held by them equal to the Liquidation
Preference of such share, plus, in the case of the Series B Preferred Stock, all
accrued but unpaid dividends thereon before any payment shall be made or any
assets distributed to the holders of any other class or series of Capital Stock
of the Corporation. If the assets and funds distributable among the Holders of
shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall be insufficient to permit the payment to
such Holders of the full amount to which they would otherwise be entitled, then
the assets and funds of the Corporation legally available for distribution shall
be distributed ratably among the Holders of shares of Senior Preferred Stock
based upon the respective amounts to which they would otherwise be entitled.

             (b) If the Holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of
Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred Stock so elect by giving written
notice thereof to the Corporation at least five days before the date of any
Sale, such Sale shall be deemed, solely for purposes of determining the amounts
to be received by the Holders of Series A Preferred Stock or Series B Preferred
Stock, as the case may be, in such Sale and the priority of receipt of such
amounts as between such Holders and the holders or any other Capital Stock, to
be a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation.

     Section 5.  Redemption.

             (a) The Corporation may, at its option, redeem for cash, out of
funds legally available therefor, all or part of the outstanding shares of
Series B Preferred Stock at a price per share of Series B Preferred Stock equal
to the Liquidation Preference of such share plus all accrued but unpaid
dividends thereon (the "Redemption Price"), provided, however, that the
aggregate Liquidation Preference of the shares of

                                       7
<PAGE>

Series B Preferred Stock acquired in any redemption shall be $1,000,000 or any
greater increment thereof. Subject to the foregoing, the number of shares of
Series B Preferred Stock to be redeemed and the method of effecting such
redemption, whether by lot or pro rata or other equitable method, may be
determined by the Board in its sole discretion.

             (b)    Not less than 30 days but not more than 60 days before the
date fixed by the Board for the redemption of the shares of Series B Preferred
Stock (the "Redemption Date"), the Corporation or its transfer agent shall mail
a notice of redemption by first-class mail postage prepaid to each Holder of
Series B Preferred Stock, addressed to such Holder at its last address shown on
the stock transfer books of the Corporation. Such notice shall indicate that the
shares of Series B Preferred Stock are being redeemed and shall, among other
things, state:

             (i)    the Redemption Date;

             (ii)   the Redemption Price;

             (iii)  the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock being
                    redeemed from each Holder;

             (iv)   that the certificate(s) representing the shares of Series B
                    Preferred Stock being redeemed must be surrendered (properly
                    endorsed or assigned for transfer if the Corporation shall
                    so require and the notice shall so state) to the Corporation
                    to collect the Redemption Price; and

             (v)    the section of this Restated Certificate pursuant to which
                    the shares of Series B Preferred Stock are being redeemed.

Failure to give notice or any defect in the notice to any Holder shall not
affect the validity of the notice given to any other Holder.

             (c)    On or after the Redemption Date, each Holder of shares of
Series B Preferred called for redemption shall either surrender the
certificate(s) evidencing such shares to the Corporation or notify the
Corporation that such certificate(s) have been lost, stolen or destroyed and
provide to the Corporation an Indemnity in respect thereof, and such Holder
thereupon shall be entitled to receive payment of the Redemption Price for such
shares. If less than all of the shares represented by any such surrendered
certificate(s) are redeemed, the Corporation shall issue a new certificate for
the unredeemed shares.

             (d)    If the Corporation deposits, on or before the Redemption
Date, with a bank or trust company (which, in the Board's good faith opinion,
has sufficient capital and surplus) cash in an amount sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price with respect to all of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock
then called for redemption (the "Redemption Fund"), in trust, with irrevocable
instructions to such bank or trust company that the Redemption Fund be applied
to the redemption of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock being redeemed in
accordance with the terms of this Section 5, then from and after the Redemption
Date the shares of Series B Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall be
canceled and shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and all rights of the
Holders thereof with respect to such shares (except for the right to receive the
Redemption Price from such bank or trust company or, to the extent provided
below, the Corporation) shall

                                       8
<PAGE>

cease. Any funds deposited in the Redemption Fund and unclaimed at the end of
six months from the Redemption Date shall be released or repaid to the
Corporation, after which the Holders of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock
being redeemed shall look only to the Corporation for payment of the Redemption
Price. Any interest accrued on the Redemption Fund shall be paid to the
Corporation from time to time, and any funds remaining in the Redemption Fund
after payment in full of the Redemption Price to the Holders of the shares of
Series B Preferred Stock shall be released or repaid to the Corporation.

     Section 6.   Voting Rights.

            (a)   General Voting Rights. Holders of shares of Senior Preferred
Stock shall be entitled to vote (except as set forth in this Restated
Certificate or as otherwise required by law, together with the holders of shares
of Common Stock as a single class) on all matters submitted for a vote of
stockholders, and shall be entitled to notice of all stockholders' meetings to
act by written consent in the same manner as the holders of shares of Common
Stock. Each share of Senior Preferred Stock shall entitle the Holder thereof to

shares of Common Stock into which such share of Senior Preferred Stock is then
convertible.

or written consent of the Holders of a majority of the shares of Series A

                  Series B Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of the Note
                  and shares of Junior Stock which carry no right to receive
                  dividends other than on a basis equivalent to that provided
                  with respect to the Series A Preferred Stock in Section 3(a)
                  hereof; or

            (iii) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of Junior

                  shares of Common Stock or warrants, options or other rights to
                  purchase shares of Common Stock acquired for fair value (as
                  determined in good faith by the Board) from any Person who,
                  together with its affiliates (as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the
                  General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act), holds
                  less than 25% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on a
                  fully diluted basis immediately prior to such acquisition.

            (c)    Special Series B Voting Rights. Without the affirmative vote

                   options or other rights to purchase shares of Common Stock
                   acquired for fair value (as determined in good faith by the
                   Board) from any Person who, together with its affiliates (as
                   defined in Rule 12b-2 of the General Rules and Regulations
                   under the Exchange Act), holds less than 25% of the shares of
                   Common Stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis immediately
                   prior to such acquisition, unless, at the time of such
                   acquisition, any dividends accrued, or otherwise then due and

     Section 7.    Optional Conversion.

            (a)    Any Holder of shares of Senior Preferred Stock shall have the
right, at any time and from time to time, at its option, to convert all or any
part of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock held by such Holder, at the
Conversion Ratio in effect on the date such conversion is deemed to be
effective, into shares of Common Stock.

            (b)    In order to effect a conversion pursuant to Section 7(a), the
Holder of any shares of Senior Preferred Stock to be converted shall surrender
the certificate(s) evidencing such shares to the Corporation and shall give
written notice to the Corporation ("Conversion Notice") that the Holder elects
to convert such shares or the portion thereof specified in the Conversion Notice
into shares of Common Stock.

                                       10
<PAGE>

            Within three Business Days after receipt of a Conversion Notice and
surrender of the certificate(s) evidencing the Senior Preferred Stock relating
thereto, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to such Holder a certificate(s)
for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of
such shares of Senior Preferred Stock or portion thereof in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 7, and a check or cash in respect of any fractional
shares of Common Stock Issuable upon such conversion (as provided in Section 9
hereof) and, in the case of a conversion of shares of Series B Preferred Stock,
all accrued but unpaid dividends thereon. In the event that less than all the
shares of Senior Preferred Stock represented by a certificate are to be
converted, the Corporation shall issue and deliver, or cause to be issued and
delivered, to the Holder of the shares of Senior Preferred Stock so surrendered,
without charge to such Holder, a new certificate(s) representing a number of
shares of Senior Preferred Stock equal to the unconverted portion of the
surrendered certificate(s).

            Each conversion shall be deemed to have been effected on the date
(the "Optional Conversion Date") on which the certificate(s) evidencing shares
of Senior Preferred Stock shall have been surrendered to the Corporation or its
transfer agent and a Conversion Notice with respect to such shares shall have
been received by the Corporation, as described above. Any Person in whose name
any certificate(s) for shares of Common Stock shall be issuable upon conversion
shall be deemed to have become the holder of record of the shares represented
thereby on the Optional Conversion Date.

            Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7 and Section 10, no
payment or adjustment will be made for dividends or other distributions with
respect to any shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of shares of
Senior Preferred Stock as provided herein.

     Section 8.  Mandatory Conversion.

            (a)  In the event the Corporation's shares of Common Stock are
registered pursuant to Section 12(b) or 12(g) of the Exchange Act and listed or
quoted on an Exchange, and the last reported sales price of the Corporation's
Common Stock as reported by the Exchange on which such shares are then listed or
quoted, as the case may be, equals or exceeds $21.2121 per share (which minimum
per share price, in the event of a stock dividend, subdivision,
reclassification, distribution or similar event relating to the Common Stock,
shall be adjusted proportionately to reflect any resulting increase or decrease
in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock) for a consecutive period of
30 Business Days, then the Corporation may, at its option, require Holders of
shares of Senior Preferred Stock to convert such shares of Senior Preferred
Stock into the number of shares of Common Stock into which such shares are
convertible upon application of the Conversion Ratio in effect on the date fixed
by the Board for conversion (the "Mandatory Conversion Date"), which Mandatory
Conversion Date shall be no more than 30 days after the end of such 30 Business
Day period.

            (b)  Not less than 10 days before the Mandatory Conversion Date, the
Corporation or its transfer agent shall mail a notice of conversion by first-
class mail postage prepaid to each Holder, addressed to such Holder at its last
address shown on the stock transfer books of the Corporation. Effective upon the
Mandatory Conversion Date, the outstanding shares of Senior Preferred Stock
shall be converted automatically without any further action by the

                                       11
<PAGE>

Holders thereof and whether or not the certificate(s) representing such shares
are surrendered to the Corporation or its transfer agent. The Corporation shall
be obligated to issue (i) a check or cash in respect of any fractional shares of
Common Stock issuable upon such conversion (as provided in Section 9 hereof)
and, in the case of the Series B Preferred Stock, all accrued but unpaid
dividends thereon, and (ii) a certificate(s) evidencing the shares of Common
Stock issuable upon such conversion, but not until three Business Days after the
certificate(s) evidencing the shares of Senior Preferred Stock being converted
are either delivered to the Corporation or its transfer agent, or the Holder
notifies the Corporation or its transfer agent that such certificate(s) have
been lost, stolen or destroyed and provides to the Corporation an Indemnity in
respect thereof.

            (c)    Except as otherwise provided in this Section 8 and Section
10, no payment or adjustment will be made for dividends or other distributions
with respect to any shares of Common Stock Issuable upon conversion of shares of
Senior Preferred Stock as provided herein.

     Section 9.    No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Common Stock or
scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon conversion (whether
optional or mandatory) of shares of Senior Preferred Stock. If any fractional
share of Common Stock would, but for this Section 9, be issuable upon the
conversion of any shares of Senior Preferred Stock, the Corporation shall make a
payment therefor in check or cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of
such fractional share. For the purpose of this Section 9, the "Fair Market
Value" of a share of Common Stock shall mean the last reported sale price on the
Exchange on which the shares of Common Stock are listed or quoted on the last
Business Day prior to the Optional Conversion Date or Mandatory Conversion Date,
as the case may be, when the Exchange is open, or, if there is no reported sale
on such day, the last reported closing bid price on the Exchange on which the
shares of Common Stock are listed or quoted at the close of trading on that day.
If the shares of Common Stock are not then listed or quoted on any Exchange, the
Fair Market Value shall be the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock
as reasonably determined by the Board of the Corporation, which determination
shall be conclusive.

     Section 10.   Adjustment of Conversion Ratio; Notices.

            (a)    In the event that the Corporation shall at any time after the
date of Issuance of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the Note pursuant
to the Asset Purchase Agreement:

            (i)    declare a dividend or make a distribution on any series of
                   its Common Stock in shares of any series of its Common Stock,

            (ii)   subdivide or reclassify shares of any series of its
                   outstanding Common Stock into a greater number of shares,

            (iii)  combine shares of any series of its outstanding Common Stock
                   into a smaller number of shares,

            (iv)   pay a dividend or make a distribution on any series of its
                   Common Stock in shares of any series of its Capital Stock
                   (other than Common Stock) or in Capital Stock Rights, or

                                       12
<PAGE>

            (v)    issue by reclassification of any series of its Common Stock
                   shares of any series of its Capital Stock or any Capital
                   Stock Rights,

then the Conversion Ratio in effect immediately prior to such event shall be
adjusted so that the Holder of any shares of Senior Preferred Stock thereafter
surrendered for conversion shall be entitled to receive the number of shares of
Common Stock and other Capital Stock of the Corporation and Capital Stock Rights
which such Holder would have owned or have been entitled to receive after the
happening of any of the events described above had such Senior Preferred Stock
been outstanding and converted immediately prior to the happening of such event.
An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 10 shall become effective
immediately after the record date in the case of a dividend or distribution and
shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of
subdivision, combination, or reclassification.  Such adjustment shall be made
successively whenever any event referred to above shall occur.

            (b)    Upon any adjustment of the Conversion Ratio pursuant to
Section 10(a), the Corporation shall give prompt written notice thereof to each
Holder of Senior Preferred Stock, by first-class mail postage prepaid addressed
to such Holder of its last address as shown on the stock transfer books of the
Corporation, which notice shall state the Conversion Ratio resulting from such
adjustment and shall set forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation of
such Conversion Ratio and the facts upon which such calculation was based.

            (c)    In case at any time:

            (i)    the Corporation shall determine to declare any dividend or
                   make any distribution on any series of its Common Stock other
                   than in shares of Capital Stock or in Capital Stock Rights;

            (ii)   the Corporation shall determine to offer for subscription pro
                   rata to the holders of any series of its Common Stock any
                   shares of its Capital or any Capital Stock Rights;

            (iii)  there shall be an Impending Sale; or

            (iv)   there shall be an impending voluntary or involuntary
                   dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation;

then, in any one or more of said cases, the Corporation shall give written
notice of the action in question to each Holder of Senior Preferred Stock, by
first-class mail postage prepaid addressed to such Holder at its last address as
shown on the stock transfer books of the Corporation.  Such notice shall
describe the material terms and conditions of such action and shall specify (y)
in the case of a dividend, distribution or subscription right, the date on which
a record shall be taken for such dividend, distribution or subscription right
and the date as of which holders of Common Stock of record shall participate in
such dividend, distribution or subscription right, and (z) in the case of a
sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Corporation, the date on
which such sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding up shall take place and the
date as of which the holders of

                                       13
<PAGE>

Common Stock shall be entitled to exchange their Common Stock for securities or
other property deliverable upon such Sale, dissolution, liquidation or winding
up. Such written notice shall be given at least 20 days prior to the action in
question and not less than 20 days prior to the record date in respect thereof.

     Section 11.  Taxes on Shares Issued.  The issuance of stock certificate(s)
upon conversion of shares of Senior Preferred Stock pursuant to Sections 7 and 8
shall be made without charge to the converting Holder for any transfer, stamp or
similar tax in respect of the issuance thereof.

     Section 12.  Reservation of Shares.  The Corporation shall reserve, free
from preemptive rights, out of its authorized but unissued shares, or out of
shares held in its treasury, sufficient shares of Common Stock to provide for
the conversion, at the Conversion Ratio from time to time in effect, of all
shares of Senior Preferred Stock which are from time to time outstanding or
issuable upon conversion of the Note.  The Corporation covenants that all shares
of Common Stock which may be issued upon conversion of shares of Senior
Preferred Stock will upon issuance be duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable by the Corporation and free from all taxes, liens and
charges with respect to the issuance thereof.

     Section 13.  Transfers.  Subject to any restrictions on transfer under
applicable securities or other laws, shares of Senior Preferred Stock may be
transferred on the books of the Corporation by the surrender to the Corporation
of the certificate(s) therefor properly endorsed or accompanied by a written
assignment and power of attorney properly executed, and such proof of the
authenticity of signature as the Corporation or its transfer agent may
reasonably require.

     Section 14.  Replacement of Certificates.  If any mutilated certificate
representing shares of Senior Preferred Stock is surrendered to the Corporation,
or if a Holder claims any certificate representing shares of Senior Preferred
Stock has been lost, destroyed or willfully taken and provides an indemnity bond
or agreement or other security sufficient, in the reasonable judgment of the
Corporation, to protect the Corporation and any authenticating agent and any of
their officers, directors, employees or representatives from any loss which any
of them may suffer if such certificate is replaced (an "Indemnity"), then the
Corporation shall issue a replacement certificate of like tenor and date.

     Section 15.  Reacquired Shares.  Any shares of Senior Preferred Stock which
are converted, purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired by the Corporation,
shall be retired and canceled by the Corporation promptly thereafter.  No such
shares shall upon their cancellation be reissued.
