Class A Secured Convertible Debenture
 
 
Debenture Terms
 
 
The Convertible Debenture shall bear interest at the rate of ten percent per annum, and shall be convertible into 7.50% of the common stock of the Issuer on a fully diluted basis. The Convertible Debenture shall be all due and payable on December 31, 2008. The Convertible Debenture shall automatically convert into registered, freely tradeable common stock of BioStem, Inc. upon the completion of the merger of BioStem and Cryobanks pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated November 22, 2005, as amended to date, and the subsequent effectiveness of a registration statement on Form S-4 (or such other available registration statement as may be available in the opinion of the Issuer’s counsel) (the “Effective Date”).
 
 

 
 
 
 
 

 
Closing
 
 
At Closing, the Investor shall wire good and immediately available funds in the amount of $9,000,000 to the attorney-client trust account of the Issuer at Corporate Legal Services, LLP. $2,000,000 of such funds shall be released immediately to the Issuer. The balance of the funds shall not be released until the Effective Date.
 
 
Registration
 
 
The Issuer shall take all action necessary to complete the purchase of not less than eighty percent (80%) of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer by BioStem, Inc. within thirty days following the Closing, complete the merger with BioStem, Inc. as set forth in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, and complete the filing of the registration statement on Form S-4 within sixty days of the Closing. Issuer shall take such action as is necessary to cause the registration statement to be declared effective within 150 days following the Closing. In the event the registration statement is not declared effective within such 150 day period, the Convertible Debenture shall thereafter bear interest at fifteen percent (15%) per annum, and the Issuer shall commence monthly interest only payments starting the first day of the month following the expiration of such 150 day period.
 
 
Board Representation
 
 
Upon the Closing, Issuer shall take such action as is required to increase the number of directors on the Issuer’s board of directors to five, and Investor shall appoint two members to the Issuer’s board of directors who shall commence their service immediately following the Closing.
 
 
 

 
 
 

 
Warrants
 
 
The Investor shall receive a five-year warrant (the “Class A Investor Warrant”) to purchase up to 3.5% of the outstanding common stock of the Issuer on a fully diluted basis (including without limitation the shares issuable upon conversion of the Secured Debenture), at an exercise price equal to the per-share conversion price of the Senior Debenture.
 
 
The Investor shall also receive a five-year warrant (the “Class B Investor Warrant,” and, together with the Class A Investor Warrant, the “Investor Warrants”) to purchase up to 3.75% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Company on a fully diluted basis (including without limitation shares issuable upon conversion of the Secured Debenture), for a purchase price of $0.001 per share.
 
 
The common stock underlying the Investor Warrants shall be registered within 180 days of the Closing Date. In the event the Issuer fails to register such underlying shares, then the Investor shall have the right to exercise the Investor Warrant on a cashless-exercise basis at any time after 180 days of the Closing Date.
 
 
Fee
 
 
On the Closing Date, the Issuer shall pay from the escrowed funds a fee of thirteen percent (13%) of the proceeds received by or for the benefit of the Company, and a warrant to purchase 1.125 percent of the outstanding shares of the Issuer’s common stock, on a fully-diluted basis, on the same terms as the Investor Warrant, to Hyperion Fund, L.P. and its designees.
 
 
Shareholder Lockup
 
 
All shareholders of the Issuer will agree to a shareholder lockup which will last until one year from the effective date of the merger of Cryobanks and BioStem, Inc. (the “Merger Date”). The lockup shall terminate as to twenty five percent (25%) of the shares held by each shareholder of Cryobanks on each of the 90th, 180th, 270th and 365th day following the Merger Date. The lockup shall not apply to shares held by Investor. During the shareholder lockup period, no Cryobanks shareholder shall sell, transfer, hypothecate or alienate any BioStem shares received in exchange for their Cryobanks shares with respect to which the lockup has not yet terminated.
