ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Under Article 109 of the Colorado Business Corporation Act, as amended (the
"CBCA"), the Company has the power to indemnify directors and officers under
prescribed circumstances and subject to certain limitations, against certain
costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred
in connection with any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative, to which any of them is a party by reason of
his or her being a director or officer of the Company if it is determined that
he or she acted in accordance with the applicable standard of conduct set forth
in such statutory provisions.

Article V F. of the Company's Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation, as amended, and Article VI of the Company's Bylaws, as amended,
provide that the Company shall indemnify directors and officers of the Company
against all expenses, liability and loss incurred as a result of such person's
being a party to, or threatened to be made a party to, any proceeding (as
defined, which includes any threatened proceeding) by reason of the fact that he
or she is or was a director or officer of the Company or is otherwise the
subject of any such proceeding by reason of that person's relationship with the
Company, to the fullest extent authorized by the CBCA, if the person conducted
the activities in question in good faith, reasonably believed that the conduct
was in the Company's best interests or was not opposed to the Company's best
interests and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to
believe the conduct was unlawful. Article VI of the Bylaws, as amended, further
permits the Company to maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and
any such director or officer of the Company against any such expenses, liability
or loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such
person against such expenses, liability or loss under the Bylaws, as amended.
The Company has directors' and officers' liability insurance.

The Underwriting Agreement (to be filed as Exhibit 1.1 to an amendment to
this Registration Statement) will provide that the Underwriters severally and
not jointly will indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each director,
officer or controlling person of the Company from and against any liability
caused by any statement or omission in the Registration Statement or Prospectus
based upon information furnished to the Company by the Underwriters for use
therein.

ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES

Effective November 10, 1997, the Company issued 12,500 shares of Series D
Convertible Preferred Stock for aggregate consideration of $12,500,000 to three
new institutional investors (the "Series D Stock"). Such

II-1
3

issuance was made under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "1933 Act"). The Series D Stock carries the option to convert into shares
of Common Stock at a variable rate, based on a formula linked to the prevailing
market price at the time of conversion, and subject to certain limitations. The
conversion rate may be up to a 50% premium to the closing market price at the
consummation of the transaction (i.e., a 50% premium to the November 7, 1997
closing price of $15.50). In addition, the Company issued warrants to purchase
201,614 shares of Common Stock exercisable at $20.16 for 5 years.

Effective October 31, 1997, the Company issued an aggregate of 40,000
shares of Common Stock to two individuals in exchange for all of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of California Microbiological Consulting, Inc., in a
transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act.

In June 1997, the Company issued 144,444 shares of 10% cumulative
convertible Series C Preferred Stock ("Series C Preferred Stock"), 43,750 shares
of Common Stock and warrants to purchase 30,993 shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price of $10 per share to an accredited investor in a transaction
exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act. The Series C
Preferred Stock originally carried the option to convert its Common Stock on a
1-for-1 basis (1-for-2 after giving effect to the Company's reverse stock
split). The Series C Preferred Stock had equal voting rights with the shares of
Common Stock, based on the underlying number of shares of Common Stock after
conversion. The Series C Preferred Stock had a dividend rate of 10% per annum,
payable in cash and/or shares at the Company's option. Also in 1997, in another
transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act,
the Company issued 125,000 shares of Common Stock and warrants to purchase
31,250 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share to
another accredited investor.

On July 23, 1996, the Company issued 531,915 shares of 10% cumulative
convertible Series B Preferred Stock ("Series B Preferred Stock") to certain
accredited investors who were existing shareholders of the Company, in a
transaction exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act.
These shares originally carried the option to convert into shares of Common
Stock on a 1-for-1 basis (1-for-2 after giving effect to the Company's reverse
stock split). The Series B Preferred Stock had equal voting rights with the
shares of Common Stock, based on the underlying number of shares of Common Stock
after conversion. The Series B Preferred Stock had a dividend rate of 10% per
annum, payable in cash and/or shares at the Company's option.

During 1996, a total of 699,667 shares of Common Stock were issued pursuant
to the exercise of outstanding warrants, resulting in net proceeds to the
Company of $3,298,876 in a transaction exempt from registration pursuant to
Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act.

In September 1995, the Company sold 1,375,000 shares of Common Stock to
"accredited investors" (within the meaning of Rule 501 under the 1933 Act) for
an aggregate consideration of $5,500,000 in a transaction exempt from
registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act (the "1995 Placement").
The Company issued warrants to purchase 27,500 shares of Common Stock for $4.00
per share to Hermitage Capital Corp., as placement agent for the 1995 Placement.
Additionally, on October 2, 1995, $4,050,000 in outstanding borrowings under a
line of credit with Trilon was converted into 1,012,500 shares of Common Stock
and warrants to purchase 50,000 shares of Common Stock for $4.00 per share. The
Company also issued to Trilon 81,306 shares of Common Stock in settlement of
accrued interest of $310,164, and 23,250 shares of Common Stock in settlement of
commitment fees.

All information provided under this Item 15 gives retroactive effect to the
1-for-2 reverse stock split.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the provisions described under Item 14 above or
otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that:

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
this Registration Statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a
form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or
(4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
Registration Statement as of the time it was declared effective; and

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities
Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities
offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be
deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
