Exhibit 10.7

                       COMPROMISE AND SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT

     WHEREAS, Associated Receivables Funding, Inc., ["ARF"] a South Carolina
corporation, claims and asserts that RMI and/or ACMG, as defined hereinbelow, is
indebted to ARF in the amount of $6,457,642.55, as of March 1, 2004; said
amounts together constituting all claims of ARF, and hereinafter called the
"Claim;" and,

     WHEREAS, Renaissance Man, Inc., a Texas corporation ["RMI"], and wholly
owned subsidiary of American Consolidated Management Group, Inc., a Utah
corporation ["ACMG"], disputes the Claim, and possesses certain counterclaims;
and,

     WHEREAS, ACMG maintains that damages has been incurred by reason of false
accounting reporting concerning its balance sheet as a result of ARF's claims
that ACMG is indebted to ARF for the claims described hereinabove.

     NOW, THEREFORE, ARF, RMI, ACMG, Brian K. Holden, and Jack Shaw in and for
the consideration set out herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, do hereby agree compromise and settle all claims, and
counterclaims as follows:

     1.   ARF does hereby release, acquit, and discharge RMI and ACMG from and
          against any and all claims for money owed from and by reason of any
          advancement of money made by ARF to RMI, and/or ACMG up to and
          including the date of this Compromise and Settlement Agreement,
          including, but not limited to all principal, interest, attorney fees,
          collection costs, and any other monetary claims associated with any
          such advancements, whether one or more, including, but not limited to,
          causes of action of whatever nature, on any legal theory arising out
          of the circumstances surrounding the said advancements of money, from
          all liability and damages of any kind, known or unknown, whether in
          contract or tort, save and except for the amount of $360,000.00, which
          amount is hereby confirmed as an indebtedness of ACMG. This
          indebtedness shall not earn interest for a period of one year from the
          date hereof, and if not paid in full by that time, shall begin to earn
          interest at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum.

     2.   RMI and ACMG do hereby release ARF from and against any and all
          claims, causes of action, assertions, known and unknown, that exist as
          of the date of this Settlement Agreement, concerning any money
          previously advanced by ARF to RMI, and/or ACMG, including, but not
          limited to, all counterclaims, and all other potential causes of
          action associated with any such loan(s) and/or advancements of money,
          all causes of action of whatever nature, on any legal theory arising
          out of the circumstances surrounding the said advancements of money,
          from all liability and damages of any kind, known or unknown, whether
          in contract or tort.

     3.   For and in consideration of the above-described release, ACMG hereby
          agrees to assign unto Beta Foods, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability
          company, a royalty on all gross sales receipts, said royalty to be in
          the amount of $2,640,000.00, and which royalty is being conveyed to
          offset the debt obligations assumed by Beta Foods, L.L.C.,
          contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this agreement.
          It is agreed and understood that upon the execution and delivery of
          this agreement, and the Beta Foods, L.L.C. agreement with ARF, that
          the total indebtedness claimed by ARF against ACMG shall be
          $360,000.00.

<PAGE>

     4.   Brian Holden, Jack Shaw and ARF do hereby covenant and agree to
          immediately return any and all records of RMI and/or ACMG currently in
          their possession, and/or under their control. These records shall be
          immediately delivered to an address and individual(s) to be designated
          by ACMG. Brian Holden, Jack Shaw and ARF do hereby represent and
          covenant that during the period of time they have served as officers
          and/or directors of RMI, and during the period of time that they have
          been in possession and/or control of the books and records of RMI that
          they have not incurred any debt or liabilities on behalf of RMI,
          except any indebtedness that is the subject of this agreement, and
          they do hereby hold RMI harmless against any claims that may be
          brought by any third parties against RMI that were created by, through
          or under them. Failure by ARF and the named individuals to deliver
          these books and records shall operate to grant unto ACMG the right and
          option to seek a court order enforcing this provision, and AMG shall
          be entitled to recover from said parties its reasonable costs and
          attorney fees in the filing and prosecution of said filing(s).

     5.   All parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this settlement is
          entered into due to the uncertainties surrounding the aforesaid
          advancements of money, and in order to avoid the uncertainties,
          annoyance and expense of litigation, without making any admission to
          any other party hereto, and each party hereto understands that the
          mutual covenants and considerations set out herein are in full
          satisfaction of all damages or claims that each party may have against
          another party hereto, or that may be owed to each such party, and that
          this is a settlement and compromise of all matters alleged or
          surrounding the advancement of monies referred to hereinabove.

     6.   In executing this Compromise and Settlement Agreement, each party
          hereto acknowledges and represents to the other parties that each
          party is not relying upon any statement or representation of any other
          party hereto, or any agent, representative, or attorney of any party
          hereto regarding the matters in dispute. Each party is relying upon
          his/its own judgment and is represented by legal counsel in the
          decision to enter into this agreement. Each party's attorney has read
          and explained the contents of this Compromise and Settlement Agreement
          to each respective party, and explained the legal consequences of this
          agreement, and each party fully understands that this agreement shall
          operate as a full, complete, and final release and settlement of any
          and all claims that are the subject matter of this agreement.

     7.   This agreement reflects the entire agreement between the parties
          hereto. There are no other agreements, either written or oral, and the
          execution of this agreement supercedes all earlier representations,
          negotiations, and/or agreements on the subject matter of this
          agreement.

     8.   This agreement covers and includes within the terms of its mutual
          releases, all subsidiary and parent entities of the parties hereto,
          all employees, representatives, attorneys, heirs, executors,
          administrators, successors, and assigns.

     9.   This agreement shall be governed and construed by the laws of the
          State of Utah.

Re: Technology Transfer

Gentlemen:

     When accepted by you, this shall constitute our complete agreement
concerning the transfer to you of certain technology, and the rights to
manufacture, market, and distribute products obtained by and through Beta Foods,
LLC's agreement with the inventor, Dr. Jack Watkins. The subject process is a
trade secret for which Beta, and/or Dr. Jack Watkins, the inventor, has not made
any application for Letters Patent in any jurisdiction.

     For the purposes of this agreement, the subject technology relates to a
natural dry compound for producing a protective barrier for consumable food
products. The compound can be applied to both wet and dry processed foods. With
this technology, consumable food products that are freeze dried can be protected
and used as an ingredient to maintain a higher nutritional value through extreme
temperature processing. The technology produces a compound that adheres
molecularly to the food particles and acts as a partition barrier from heat and
degradation to the micronutrients and phytochemicals present in the foods. For
the purposes of this agreement, this technology shall be hereinafter referred to
as the "Technology." Furthermore, for the purposes of this agreement, it is
agreed and understood that this term "Technology" includes any future
developments, improvements, additions, and inventions hereinafter made to this
Technology, which may occur throughout the duration and utilization of the
Technology.

     The Technology is a trade secret that ACMG and Beta agree will be jointly
protected and not revealed to any third parties, except for a general
description for marketing purposes. Any and all ~ommuniques, announcements,
marketing materials, whether oral or written, shall be drafted by Beta and/or
ACMG, as the case may be, to insure accuracy and to minimize the opportunity for
third parties to develop, or reverse engineer a competing technology.

     For and in consideration of the covenants and agreements outlined herein,
and the specific consideration payable by ACMG to Beta, Beta and/or Jack Watkins
shall execute and deliver to you ("ACMG") all documents deemed necessary to
effectuate the intent of this Agreement. Likewise, ACMG shall execute and
deliver unto Beta such other documents as shall be deemed required to carry out
the intents and purposes of this Agreement. Beta represents and warrants to ACMG
that the inventor of the Technology, Dr. Jack Watkins has executed and delivered
to Beta certain assignments of the Technology, and that Beta has full right and
authority to execute and deliver this Agreement. Furthermore, Dr. Watkins is
executing this Agreement in his capacity as an officer of Beta, but also in his
individual capacity, insofar, and only insofar, as his consent to the terms and
conditions outlined herein, as well as his agreement and covenant to execute and
deliver any subsequent documentation that ACMG deems necessary regarding the
Technology, including, but not limited to, any patent application(s) ACMG deems
desirable for the countries in which it enjoys this exclusive transfer of
rights. In the event that a patent application(s) is made, it is expressly
agreed that such application shall be assigned unto ACMG, subject to the terms
and conditions outlined in this Agreement. Beta may elect to file for patent

<PAGE>

applications in countries reserved from this transfer, and shall hold such
rights, if and when issued.

     Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is expressly agreed and
understood that ACMG shall possess, and Beta hereby assigns and conveys unto
ACMG the exclusive rights to the Technology for the United States, Mexico,
Canada, Central America and all countries currently contained within the
European Union [hereinafter referred to as the "Core Countries"]; said exclusive
right(s) to include, but not be limited to, the right to produce, market and
sell products produced by, thorough and under the Technology, and shall include
the right to institute such action(s) as ACMG shall deem necessary to protect
ACMG and its exclusive rights. ACMG and Beta hereby agree and covenant to take
such action(s) and shall be deemed reasonable to protect each other's exclusive
rights regarding the Technology, including, but not limited to, contractual
reservations and provisions with third parties. It is further expressly agreed
and understood that the royalty described hereinbelow is limited to sales made
by ACMG in the Core Countries. For all other countries, Beta shall possess, and
does hereby reserve unto itself, the exclusive rights to the Technology, subject
to the limitations set out herein; provided that, Beta hereby covenants that it
shall not transfer or sell those rights to any third party for a period of three
(3) years after the execution of this Agreement; provided, that in the event
that ACMG shall be merged or acquired, this restriction shall be automatically
removed. Any sale by Beta and/or ACMG of the rights to the Technology shall
include prohibitions that protect the rights of ACMG and/or Beta, as the case
may be, from and against the infringement of the other party's rights in the
Technology. Upon the expiration of said three (3) year period, ACMG shall have
the right-of-first refusal upon any offer received by Beta from a third party.
Any sale of Beta shall be subject to terms and provisions of this Agreement.
Beta may elect to produced powders for any non-Core Country; however, it shall
first provide ACMG with the option of producing and selling all powders required
by Beta in the marketing of the Technology. Only in the event that ACMG cannot,
or will not produce and supply the relevant powders will Beta elect to produce
them itself. For all such sales, it is agreed that ACMG shall be compensated an
amount equal to four times its cost of producing said powder; said cost to be
defined as ACMG's costs of raw materials, including freeze dried fruits and
vegetables and the bonding materials; provided, that in the event that marketing
conditions result in Beta being unable to sell the powders for an amount less
than eight times ACMG's cost of goods sold, then it is agreed that the price to
be paid to ACMG by Beta shall be equal to one-half of the multiple obtained for
ACMG's costs of goods sold. Beta may also execute such agreements as are
necessary to permit third parties to market and utilize the Technology in the
manufacture of their food and/or beverage products; however, no such grant shall
include information concerning the Technology. It is further expressly agreed
that Beta, and its assignees may have full and complete utilization of the
copyrighted term "Sunutra" in the marketing of products in the Non-Core
Countries. In the event that ACMG does not receive funding from Cornell Capital
Partners, L.P. within ninety (90) days from this date, Beta may terminate this
Agreement.

As consideration for this transfer of rights herein, the parties agrees as
follows:

ACMG shall pay to Beta a cash payment of $300,000.00.

     1.   As an additional partial consideration, ACMG shall immediately cause
          2,500,000 shares of unregistered stock of ACMG to be issued to Beta,
          and/or its designees. These shares shall remain unregistered for a
          period of two (2) years following the date you accept this Agreement,
          following which, ACMG shall cause these shares to be registered and
          free-trading shares, and shall cause any and all filings with the
          appropriate regulatory bodies required to effectuate this status as
          registered and free-trading shares. In the event that a merger of ACMG
          shall occur prior to the expiration of the aforesaid two year period,
          then upon such sale and/or merger, all of the shares transferred
          pursuant hereto shall become fully registered and free-trading shares,
          and ACMG, and/or its successors and assigns, shall file any and all
          registration statements, or similar documents with the Securities and
          Exchange Commission ["SEC"], or any other regulatory body with
          jurisdiction over ACMG in order to effectuate said status as fully
          registered and free-trading shares.

     2.   .Beta does hereby reserve unto itself, as an additional partial
          consideration, a royalty payment equal to ten percent(10%) of the
          gross sales receipts of ACMG from and out of all sales made by ACMG of
          products manufactured by ACMG utilizing the Technology. This royalty
          shall be paid on a monthly basis, and shall be made on, or before the
          15th day of each month following the month that ACMG receives

                                       2
<PAGE>

          payments, and/or pre-payments for sales of products, or powders made
          by ACMG subject to this agreement. This royalty obligation shall
          survive the execution of this agreement, and shall be a continuing
          obligation of ACMG, its successors and assigns so long as

     3.   ACMG, its successors and assigns continue to produce, market and/or
          sell products utilizing the Technology. In the event that ACMG shall
          cease to manufacture and market powders and/or products produced by
          the Technology for a period of twelve (12) months, then this Agreement
          shall automatically terminate, and all rights to the Technology shall
          revert back to Beta; provided, that any obligations hereunder of ACMG
          to Beta shall continue until satisfied. It is expressly agreed and
          understood that this royalty payment shall concern only those sales
          made by ACMG in the Core Countries.

     ACMG, and each and every employee, consultant, and/or representative of
ACMG, including, but not limited to, all directors and officers, shall execute
and deliver unto ACMG a confidentiality and non-compete agreement identical in
form and substance to the document attached hereto as Exhibit "A," or any other
form deemed necessary. This obligation and condition shall be a continuing
obligation of ACMG, its successors and assigns. ACMG and Beta shall be the joint
beneficiaries of said agreements, and ACMG hereby covenants and agrees that it
is automatically bound, in Beta's favor, by the identical terms and conditions
as set out in Exhibit "A," on behalf of ACMG as a separate and distinct entity.
ACMG and Beta agree and covenant to cooperate with each other in the enforcement
all such agreements. Beta shall likewise require all of its officers, directors
and employees to execute and deliver confidentiality and non-complete
agreements, identical to Exhibit "A."

     ACMG shall have access to the Technology including recipes utilized in the
formulation of the powders to be sold to by ACMG; provided, that ACMG agrees to
develop a procedure within ACMG such that no one employee, officer, director,
independent contractor, agent, or representative shall possess knowledge of the
entire Technology, and/or recipe contents. This program is to insure the
confidentiality of the Technology, and is for the mutual benefit of Beta and
ACMG. The only exception to this procedure shall be Dr. Watkins, and Mike
Takaki, who already possess this knowledge. In this regard, Dr. Watkins has
contracted with Beta to produce and supply a complete set of drawings, recipes
and formulae to enable Beta to produce products with the Technology, under an
agreement that such documents shall be placed in escrow in the event of the
death, incapacity, or refusal of Dr. Watkins to produce powders and products.
Beta does hereby transfer to ACMG the right to equal access to this technical
data.

     Dr. Jack Watkins and Mike Takaki, may be engaged by ACMG as consultants,
from time to time, as ACMG may desire. These individuals may also be utilized by
ACMG in the development of specific formulations and applications for each
individual customer of ACMG and their respective food products, as well as
improvements and modifications of the Technology.

     Furthermore, it is agreed and understood that Dr. Watkins, and/or Mike
Takaki may be engaged to work on research and development in attempts to enhance
the Technology, or to develop other technologies for utilization in the food and
beverage business. Any additional or further developments, amendments, and
alternations to the Technology, as well as any additional inventions developed
as a result of these research and development efforts shall automatically be
subject to this Agreement.

     The terms contained herein, shall survive the issuance and delivery of this
Agreement, and continue to control, and shall be binding upon ACMG, its
successors and assigns, including but not, limited to, the continuing royalty
obligations covered by this agreement, as well as other continuing compensation
provisions contained herein. In the event that ACMG, its successors and assigns
shall fail to remit any royalty payment(s) covered herein, or any other payments
called for herein, then said payments shall earn interest at the maximum rate
allowable under the then current laws of the State of Texas. This penalty
provision shall not be applied to any payment received by Beta on, or before,
the expiration of a five (5) grace period for any month for which the payment(s)
is due and owing to Beta. At Beta's option, it may seek a monetary judgment for
any unpaid royalties with all parties agreeing that a court of competent
jurisdiction in the State of Texas shall be the proper court in which to bring

                                       3
<PAGE>

such lawsuit, and Harris County, Texas being the county of venue.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that ACMG shall
fail to pay the royalty set out herein, for periods equaling or exceeding six
(6) months, then Beta shall possess the continuing right and option of
terminating this Agreement by providing ACMG with thirty (30) days written
notice, during which time ACMG may avoid termination by making payment, in full,
of all outstanding royalties.

     Each party hereto possesses adequate rights and licenses to use all
trademarks, trade secrets, trade names, service marks, copyrights, inventions,
approvals and technologies that are the subject of this Agreement. Neither
entity has knowledge of any infringement upon their respective trademarks and
technologies, and Beta has no knowledge of a claim, action, or proceeding being
made or brought against it, or to Beta's knowledge any threatened action against
it, save and except that Phytogenics, Inc. claims that any invention of Dr. Jack
Watkins is owned by it. ACMG has made its own independent determination
concerning the validity and/or viability of these claims, and has conducted a
thorough review and analysis of those claims. ACMG is making that determination
independent of any legal counsel or advice from Beta. In this regard, attached
hereto as Exhibit "B," are the test results obtained for the powders produced by
the Technology.

     Beta and ACMG are duly incorporated or organized and validly existing in
the jurisdiction of its incorporation, and has the requisite power and authority
to enter into this Agreement. Each party represents to the other that it has the
right, power, and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, and all other
instruments contemplated herein. This Agreement is being executed and delivered
by each party, and will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of
each entity, enforceable against each respective party.

     ACMG and Beta have such knowledge and experience required to evaluate the

under indenture or debt instrument of each respective party, or violate any
known law, rule, judgment, order, decree or regulation to which either entity is

ACMG to institute litigation against ACMG. Beta has made an independent
investigation and analysis of the risks associated with these threats, and is
relying upon, and has relied upon its own independent legal counsel in making
its decision to proceed ahead and enter into this Agreement. Beta acknowledges
that ACMG has not refused or failed to provide satisfactory answers to any and
all questions concerning this matter. In all respects concerning the various and
multiple threats made by Phytogenics, Inc., each party is aware of these
threats, and has made their independent analysis and decision concerning the
probability of such litigation, the viability of such threats, and has elected
to accept the risks associated with these threats. Watkins acknowledges that he
had had ongoing discussions concerning a comprehensive settlement with
Phytogenics and its shareholders; however, no agreement, as of the date hereof,
has been reached between said parties.

liability he may possess concerning this prior association; provided, that such
release does not concern any future acts. Dr. Watkins has not refused or failed
