                      APPLIED INTELLECTUAL CAPITAL LIMITED


             COLLABORATION AGREEMENT WITH UNIVERSITY COLLEGE DUBLIN


RedOx Biofuels and researchers at University College Dublin sign agreement to
convert post-consumer waste into bio-degradable plastics


Applied Intellectual Capital ("AIC") (AIM: AINC) and RedOx Biofuels ("RedOx"), a
wholly-owned subsidiary of AIC, have today announced a new collaborative
scientific research agreement with Dr Kevin O'Connor from University College
Dublin's (UCD) School of Biomolecular and Biomedical Science, to investigate
methods of converting post-consumer waste into bio-degradable plastics.


By combining Dr O'Connor's patent-pending microbiological technology and AIC/
RedOx's proprietary technology (mediated metal redox ("MMR")), the proposal is
to convert several waste streams into bio-degradable plastics which can be used
in a variety of forms ranging from plastic bottles to surgical parts thereby
replacing traditional fossil fuel-based plastics. The collaboration may also be
extended in the future to produce other value added products like bio-fuels from
waste.


"This agreement with Dr Kevin O'Connor and his team at University College Dublin
offers RedOx exciting new potential avenues for converting consumer waste
streams into value-added products," says Kim Ogaard-Nielsen, CEO of RedOx. "We
are very excited by this additional branch to our business activity."


"Power and diversity can meet with extraordinary results at the interface
between chemistry and biology," says Dr Kevin O'Connor, UCD. "This new
collaboration with AIC/RedOx shows how chemo-biological synergy can offer real
solutions for waste by using it to generate value added products."

About Dr Kevin O'Connor, University College Dublin (UCD)


Dr O' Connor's research at University College Dublin has resulted in the
creation of a unique patent-pending technology for the conversion of post
consumer waste to biodegradable plastic. The research involves applying the
diversity of the microbial world to converting previously considered dead-end
products to value added commodities. This is achieved using molecular tools as
well as bioprocess manipulations.
