Synagro Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"),
registered the issuance of up to 540,000 shares of its common stock, par value
$.002 per share (the "Common Stock"), on Registration Statement on Form S-8 No.
333-18029 (the "Registration Statement") pursuant to the Synagro Technologies,
Inc. 1993 Stock Option Plan (the "Prior Plan"). A total of 21,901 shares were
sold upon exercise of options granted under the Prior Plan. The Company
recently amended and restated the Prior Plan (the "Amended Plan") to increase
the number of shares available for issuance under the plan. The Amended Plan
allows for the grant of incentive awards covering an aggregate of the greater
of (a) 1,100,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock and (b) 10% of the number
of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the last day of each
calendar quarter. On September 30, 1998, the Company filed a Registration
Statement on Form S-8 No. 333-64999 (the "New Registration Statement")
registering the issuance of up to 1,100,000 shares pursuant to the Amended
Plan. All outstanding options previously granted under the Prior Plan will be
assumed and continued, without modification, under the Amended Plan.
Pursuant to the undertaking given by the Company in the Registration
Statement in accordance with Item 512(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, the Company
hereby removes the remaining 518,099 shares from registration under the
Registration Statement, which represents the number of shares registered less
the number sold upon exercise of options. The shares which are hereby removed
from registration have been, and continue to be, registered on the New
Registration Statement.
