AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF MERGER (“Agreement”) is made and entered into as of April __, 2020, by and among: BIO-MATRIX SCIENTIFIC GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”); RIVULET FILMS, INC., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”); and RIVULET FILMS LLC, an Arizona limited liability company (the “Company”). Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 8.16.

RECITALS

A. Parent, Merger Sub, and the Company intend to effect a merger of the Company with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”) in accordance with this Agreement and the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) and the Arizona Revised Statutes (“ARS”). Upon consummation of the Merger, the Company will cease to exist and Merger Sub will continue as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

B. It is intended that the Merger qualify as a tax free reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

C. The respective boards of directors or members of Parent, Merger Sub and the Company have approved this Agreement and approved the Merger.

AGREEMENT

The parties to this Agreement, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Article 1

DESCRIPTION OF TRANSACTION

1.1 MERGER OF MERGER SUB INTO THE COMPANY. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, at the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall be merged with and into the Company and the separate existence of the Company shall cease. Following the Effective Time, Merger Sub shall continue as the surviving corporation of the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”).

1.2 EFFECT OF THE MERGER. The Merger shall have the effects set forth in this Agreement and in the applicable provisions of the DGCL.

1.3 CLOSING; EFFECTIVE TIME. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place at the offices of Gallagher & Kennedy, P.A., 2575 East Camelback Road, Phoenix, Arizona 85016, at 10:00 a.m. local time on a date to be designated by Parent (the “Closing Date”), which shall be no later than the fifth Business Day after the satisfaction or waiver of the last to be satisfied or waived of the conditions set forth in Article 5 and Article 6 (other than those conditions that by their nature cannot be satisfied prior to the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of those conditions at the Closing) or at such other time and date as may be mutually agreed by Parent and the Company. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, a certificate of merger or articles of merger, as applicable, satisfying the applicable requirements of the DGCL and the ARS (the “Certificate of Merger”) shall be duly executed by Merger Sub and the Company and, as soon as practicable following the Closing, filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “Secretary of State”) and the Arizona Corporation Commission (the “ACC”). The Merger shall become effective upon the later of: (a) the date and time of the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State and the ACC, or (b) such later date and time as may be specified in the Certificate of Merger as agreed to by the Parties. The date and time the Merger becomes effective is referred to in this Agreement as the “Effective Time.”

1.4 CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION AND BYLAWS; DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS. At the Effective Time:

(a) the certificate of incorporation of the Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation;

(b) the bylaws of Merger Sub as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall remain the bylaws of the Surviving Corporation, until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof, the certificate of incorporation of the Surviving Corporation, or as provided by law; and

(c) the directors and officers of the Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time shall be the respective individuals who were directors and officers of Merger Sub immediately prior to the Effective Time.

1.5 CONVERSION OF EQUITABLE INTERESTS.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company, or any equityholder of the Company:

(i) any equitable interests of Company (“Company Equity”) then owned by the Company or any wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company (or held in the Company’s treasury) shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(ii) any shares of Company Equity then owned by Parent, Merger Sub, or any other wholly owned Subsidiary of Parent shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor;

(iii) except as provided in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 1.5(a) and subject to Sections 1.5(b) and 1.5(c), all Company Equity then outstanding shall be converted into the right to receive the 82,155,765 shares of Parent Common Stock as set forth on Schedule 1.5(a)(iii) hereto; and

(iv) each share of the common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of Merger Sub then outstanding shall be converted into one share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation.

The fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock specified in Section 1.5(a)(iii) (as such fraction may be adjusted in accordance with Section 1.5(b)) is referred to as the “Exchange Ratio.”

(b) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, the outstanding Company Equity or shares of Parent Common Stock are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split, reclassification, recapitalization, or other similar transaction or event, or there occurs a record date with respect to any of the foregoing, then the Exchange Ratio shall be appropriately adjusted.

(c) No fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued in connection with the Merger, and no certificates or scrip for any such fractional shares shall be issued. Any holder of Company Equity who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock issuable to such holder), in lieu of such fraction of a share and, upon surrender of such holder’s Company Equity Certificate or Book Entry Equity, shall be paid in cash the dollar amount (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, determined by multiplying such fraction by the closing price of a share of Parent Common Stock on the OTC Pink Market (the “OTC”) on the day that includes the Effective Time (or if such day is not a day on which the OTC is open, the immediately preceding day on which the OTC is open).

1.6 CLOSING OF THE COMPANY’S TRANSFER BOOKS. At the Effective Time: (a) all holders of shares of Company Equity that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights as equityholders of the Company other than the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock) as contemplated by Section 1.5 and any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 1.7(c); and 1.7(b) the transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Equity outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any Company Equity shall be made on such transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Company Equity is presented to the Exchange Agent or to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, such Company Equity shall be cancelled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 1.7.

1.7 EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES.

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, Parent shall select an exchange agent in the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”). Parent shall make available to the Exchange Agent (by instruction to Parent’s transfer agent) (i) promptly after the Effective Time, certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 1.5 (or make appropriate alternative arrangements if uncertificated shares of Parent Common Stock represented by a book entry will be issued) and (ii) as needed, cash sufficient to make payments in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with Section 1.5(c). The shares of Parent Common Stock and cash amounts so deposited with the Exchange Agent are referred to collectively as the “Exchange Fund.”

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to the record holders of Company Equity (i) a letter of transmittal in customary form and containing such provisions as Parent may reasonably specify (including a provision confirming that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Company Equity Certificates to the Exchange Agent or, in the case of Book Entry Equity, upon adherence to the procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal), and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of such holder’s Company Equity Certificates and Book Entry Equity in exchange for certificates representing Parent Common Stock (or appropriate alternative arrangements if uncertificated shares of Parent Common Stock represented by a book entry will be issued). Exchange of any Book Entry Equity shall be effected in accordance with the Exchange Agent’s customary procedures with respect to securities represented by book entry. Upon surrender of a Company Equity Certificate or Book Entry Equity to the Exchange Agent for exchange, together with a duly executed letter of transmittal and such other documents as may be reasonably required by the Exchange Agent or Parent, the holder of such Company Equity Certificate or Book Entry Equity shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor a certificate representing the number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock (or uncertificated shares of Parent Common Stock represented by a book entry) that such holder has the right to receive pursuant to the provisions of Section 1.5 (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock). The Company Equity Certificate or Book Entry Equity so surrendered shall be canceled. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.7, each Company Equity Certificate or Book Entry Equity shall be deemed, from and after the Effective Time, to represent only the right to receive shares of Parent Common Stock (and cash in lieu of any fractional share of Parent Common Stock) as contemplated by Section 1.5. If any Company Equity Certificate shall have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, Parent or the Exchange Agent may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance of any certificate representing Parent Common Stock, require the owner of such lost, stolen, or destroyed Company Equity Certificate to provide an appropriate affidavit and to deliver a bond (in such sum as Parent or the Exchange Agent may reasonably direct) as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the Exchange Agent, Parent, or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Company Equity Certificate.

(c) No dividends or other distributions declared or made with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Company Equity Certificate or Book Entry Equity with respect to the shares of Parent Common Stock that such holder has the right to receive in the Merger until such holder surrenders such Company Equity Certificate or Book Entry Equity in accordance with this Section 1.7 (at which time such holder shall be entitled, subject to the effect of applicable escheat law or similar Legal Requirement, to receive all such dividends and distributions, without interest).

(d) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains undistributed to holders of Company Equity Certificates or Book Entry Equity as of the date 180 days after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent upon demand, and any holders of Company Equity Certificates or Book Entry Equity who have not theretofore surrendered their Company Equity Certificates or Book Entry Equity in accordance with this Section 1.7 shall thereafter look only to Parent for satisfaction of their claims for Parent Common Stock, cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock, and any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock, in each case without interest thereon.

(e) Each of the Exchange Agent, Parent, and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable or otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement to any holder or former holder of Company Equity such amounts as may be required to be deducted or withheld therefrom under the Code or any provision of state, local, or foreign Tax law or under any other applicable Legal Requirement. To the extent such amounts are so deducted or withheld, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such amounts would otherwise have been paid.

(f) Neither Parent nor the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder or former holder of Company Equity or to any other Person with respect to any shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto), or for any cash amounts, properly delivered to any public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property law, escheat law, or similar Legal Requirement.

1.8 TAX CONSEQUENCES. For federal income tax purposes, the Merger is intended to constitute a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. The parties to this Agreement hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Sections 1.368 2(g) and 1.368 3(a) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

1.9 FURTHER ACTION. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Parent to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title, and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the Company, and otherwise) to take such action.

All of the issued and outstanding Company Equity has been duly authorized, are validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable and are held of record by the respective holders as set forth in Section 2.3 of the Company Disclosure Schedule.

Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries needs to give any notice to, make any filing with, or obtain any authorization, consent, or approval of any government or governmental agency in order for the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except where the failure to give notice, to file, or to obtain any authorization, consent, or approval would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect.
