This final amendment to Schedule 13E-4 relates to an offer by FiberChem,
Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer" or the "Company"), upon terms and
conditions approved by the Board of Directors on April 3, 1997 as amended
(the "Board Resolutions"), to temporarily reduce the exercise price (the
"Warrant Exercise Price") of the Company's outstanding Class D Common Stock
Purchase Warrants (the "Class D Warrants"). Each Warrant entitles the
registered holders thereof upon exercise to purchase one share of Common
Stock, par value $.0001, per Warrant, or an aggregate of 1,998,354 shares.
The Exercise Price of the Class D Warrants, exercisable at $1.10 per share,
was decreased to $.30 through May 16, 1997, when the offer terminated and the
price reverted to the current exercise price of $1.10 per share. As a result
of the offer an aggregate of 103,179 Class D Warrants were exercised at $0.30
per warrant or $30,953.70. The registration fee for this statement is based
on the possible issuance of an aggregate of 1,998,354 shares of Common Stock
at an exercise price of $1.10 per share.
