("SECURITIES ACT") is available for the use of non-U.S. Persons only. This
Declaration must be answered fully and returned to LIFE STEM GENETICS INC. (the
"COMPANY") to ensure the Company is in compliance with the Securities Act in
connection with the proposed acquisition of securities of the Company (the
"SECURITIES") by the Purchaser (as defined below). All information will be held
in the strictest confidence and used only to determine investor status. No
information will be disclosed other than as required by law or regulation, other
demand by proper legal process or in litigation involving the Company or its
affiliates, controlling persons, officers, directors, partners, employees,
shareholders, attorneys or agents.
I, ____________________________________ (THE "PURCHASER"), HEREBY AFFIRM AND
DECLARE THAT:
1. The Purchaser is not a "US Person," as such term is defined in Rule 902(k)
of Regulation S which, without restricting the generality of such
definition, includes
(a) a natural person resident in the United States,
(b) a partnership or corporation organized or incorporated under the laws
of the United States,
(c) an estate of which any executor or administrator is a U.S. Person,
(d) a trust of which any trustee is a U.S. Person,
(e) a non-discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate
or trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary for the benefit of a
U.S. Person,
(f) a discretionary account or similar account (other than an estate or
trust) held by a dealer or other fiduciary organized, incorporated or
(if an individual) resident in the United States, and
(g) a partnership or corporation if
(i) organized or incorporated under the laws of any foreign
jurisdiction, and
(ii) formed by a U.S. Person principally for the purpose of investing
in securities not registered under the 1933 Act, unless it is
organized or incorporated, and owned, by `Accredited Investors'
who are not natural persons, estates or trusts..
2. The Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities for the benefit of a US
Person.
3. The Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities in the name of a company
incorporated in the United States of America or for the benefit of a
company incorporated in the United States of America.
4. The Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities in its capacity as trustee
for a U.S.-based trust.
5. The Purchaser is not purchasing the securities in its capacity as an
executor or administrator of the estate of a U.S. resident.
6. The Purchaser is not a U.S. resident purchasing the Securities through a
brokerage account located outside of the United States of America, nor is
it using a non-U.S. brokerage account to purchase the Securities for the
benefit of individuals or corporate entities resident within the United
States of America.
7. The Purchaser is not purchasing the Securities as part of a transaction or
series of transactions that, although in technical compliance with the
provisions of Regulation S, is part of a plan or scheme to evade the
registration provisions of the Securities Act and will not engage in
hedging transactions involving the Securities unless such transactions are
in compliance with the Securities Act.
15
8. The Purchaser is purchasing the Securities as an investment and not with a
view towards resale.
9. It has been called to the Purchaser's attention that this investment
involves a high degree of risk, and no assurances are or have been made
regarding the economic advantages, if any, which may inure to its benefit.
The economic benefit from an investment in the Securities depends on the
ability of the Company to successfully conduct its business activities. The
accomplishment of such goals in turn depends on many factors beyond the
control of the Company or its management. Accordingly, the suitability for
any particular investor in the Securities will depend upon, among other
things, such investor's investment objectives and such investor's ability
to accept speculative risks, including the risk of a total loss of
investment in the Securities. The Purchaser's advisor(s), if any, and the
Purchaser have carefully reviewed and understand the risk of, and other
considerations relating to, an investment in the securities.
10. The Purchaser is able to bear the economic risks of this investment, is
able to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time, and has
sufficient net worth to sustain a loss of the entire investment in the
Company in the event such loss should occur.

concerning the Company or any other matters relating to the business and
proposed operation of the Company and the offer and sale of the Securities.
12. The Purchaser will offer, sell or otherwise transfer the Securities only
(A) pursuant to a registration statement that has been declared effective
under the Securities Act, (B) pursuant to offers and sales that occur
outside the United States within the meaning of Regulation S in a
transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 904 (or other applicable Rule)
under the Securities Act, or (C) pursuant to another available exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, subject to the
Company's right prior to any offer, sale or transfer pursuant to clauses
(B) or (C) to require the delivery of an opinion of counsel, certificates
or other information reasonably satisfactory to the Company for the purpose
of determining the availability of an exemption.
13. To the Purchaser's knowledge, without having made any independent
investigation, neither the Company nor any person acting for the Company,
has conducted any "directed selling efforts" in the United States as the
term "directed selling efforts" is defined in Rule 902 of Regulation S,
which, in general, means any activity undertaken for the purpose of, or
that could reasonably be expected to have the effect of, conditioning the
marketing in the United States for any of the securities being offered.
Such activity includes, without limitation, the mailing of printed material
to investors residing in the United States, the holding of promotional
seminars in the United States, and the placement of advertisements with
radio or television stations broadcasting in the United States or in
publications with a general circulation in the United States, which discuss
the offering of the securities. To the Purchaser's knowledge, without
having made any independent investigation, the securities were not offered
to it through, and the Purchaser is not aware of, any form of general
solicitation or general advertising, including without limitation, (i) any
advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any
newspaper, magazine or similar media or broadcast over television or radio,
and (ii) any seminar or meeting whose attendees have been invited by any
general solicitation or general advertising.
14. The Purchaser is permitted to purchase the Securities under the laws of its
home jurisdiction.
15. The Purchaser has been independently advised as to the applicable holding
period imposed in respect of the Securities by securities legislation in
the jurisdiction in which it resides and confirms that no representation
has been made respecting the applicable holding periods for the Securities
in such jurisdiction and is aware of the risks and other characteristics of
the Securities and of the fact that holders of such Securities may not be
able to resell such Securities except in accordance with applicable
securities legislation and regulatory policy.
16. The Purchaser understands that if it knowingly and willingly makes false
statements as to eligibility to purchase or resell securities under
Regulation S, it may become subject to civil and criminal proceedings being
taken by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.
16
17. The Purchaser has no present intention of becoming, a resident of the
United States (defined as being any natural person physically present
within the United States for at least 183 days in a 12-month consecutive
period or any entity who maintained an office in the United States at any
time during a 12-month consecutive period). The Purchaser understands that
the Company may rely upon the representations and warranty of this
paragraph as a basis for an exemption from registration of the securities
under the Securities Act, and the provisions of relevant state securities
laws.

a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this
Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the
Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the
Issuer (or such other office or agency of the Issuer as it may designate by

cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 1(c) below is specified in the
applicable Notice of Exercise. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,

shall surrender this Warrant to the Issuer for cancellation within three (3)
Trading Days of the date the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the
Issuer. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of

and the Issuer shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares
purchased and the date of such purchases. The Issuer shall deliver any objection
to any Notice of Exercise Form within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such
notice. THE HOLDER AND ANY ASSIGNEE, BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS WARRANT, ACKNOWLEDGE
AND AGREE THAT, BY REASON OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS PARAGRAPH, FOLLOWING THE

Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of
delivery of the certificate or certificates representing Warrant
Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of
the Holder to purchase the un-purchased Warrant Shares called for by
this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be
identical with this Warrant.
iii. Rescission Rights. If the Issuer fails to cause the Transfer
Agent to transmit to the Holder a certificate or the certificates

Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to
rescind such exercise.
iv. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip
representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of
this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would
otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Issuer
shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of
such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by
the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.
v. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of certificates for
Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any
issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the
issuance of such certificate, all of which taxes and expenses shall be
paid by the Issuer, and such certificates shall be issued in the name
of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the
Holder; provided, however, that in the event certificates for Warrant
Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder,
this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the
Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the
Issuer may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum
sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto.
vi. Closing of Books. The Issuer will not close its stockholder
books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of
this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of
the Issuer prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 1(c).
b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Issuer covenants
that upon receipt by the Issuer of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the
loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate
relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of
indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the
Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and
cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Issuer will
make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as
of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.
c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the
taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein
shall not be a Business Day, then, such action may be taken or such right may be
exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

19

affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant
Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder,
shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any
Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Issuer, whether such liability is
asserted by the Issuer or by creditors of the Issuer.
h) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all
rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to
specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Issuer agrees that
monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by
reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to
waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that
a remedy at law would be adequate.
i) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this
Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the
benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the
Issuer and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of
this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time
of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant
Shares.
j) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions
hereof waived with the written consent of the Issuer and the Holder.
k) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be
interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law,
but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under
applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such
prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions
or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.
