SECURITIES TRANSFER AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), dated as of February 29, 2012, by and between Venture Bridge Advisors (“Seller”), and Southridge Partners II LP. (“Purchaser”).

The Seller is the holder of that certain Line of Credit Promissory Note, dated December 1, 2010, issued by Entest Biomedical, Inc (the “Company”) to the Seller in the original principal amount of up to $200,000.00 (the “Original Note”).

The Seller has certain rights with respect to the Original Note. Such rights are referred to collectively as the “Seller’s Transaction Rights.” The Original Note and the Seller’s Transaction Rights are referred to collectively as the “Transferred Rights.”

Seller desires to sell to Purchaser, and Purchaser desires to purchase from Seller, (i) twenty nine thousand dollars ($29,000.00) of the principal balance of the Original Note, plus accrued interest equal to $622.00 (the “Purchased Note”), and (ii) the other Seller’s Transaction Rights associated with the Purchased Note; such purchase and sale shall be made upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

Purchasers and Seller are executing and delivering this Agreement in reliance upon an exemption from securities registration afforded by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”);

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

1. PURCHASE AND SALE OF SELLER’S TRANSACTION RIGHTS.

a. Purchase of the Transferred Rights.

(i) On the Transfer Closing Date (as defined below), Seller agrees to sell and deliver to Purchaser, and Purchaser agrees to purchase from Seller, (x) the Purchased Note and (y) the Seller’s Transaction Rights associated with the Purchased Note, in consideration of Purchaser’s payment in cash of the Transfer Price to Seller.

Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions thereto set forth in Section 5 and Section 6 below, the date and time of the sale of the Purchased Note by Seller to Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement (“Transfer Closing Date”) shall be no later than February __, 2012. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall occur at such other location as may be agreed to by the parties.

To the best knowledge of the Company, no payments have been made to Seller on account of any such rights and Seller has not, directly or indirectly, waived or relinquished any of such rights. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, the Company acknowledges that no liquidated damages have accrued with respect to the Transferred Rights, and (y) all other provisions of the Seller’s Note remain in full force and effect.

2. PURCHASER’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller and to the Company that:

a. Accredited Purchaser; Investment Purpose. Purchaser represents that it is an “Accredited Investor” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. Purchaser is purchasing the Purchased Note for its own account for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or distribution thereof, nor with any present intention of distributing or selling the same, and it has no present or contemplated agreement, undertaking, arrangement, obligation, indebtedness or commitment providing for the disposition thereof; provided, however, that by making the representations herein, Purchaser does not agree to hold the Replacement Note or any Common Stock issued upon conversion of or in payment of interest on the Replacement Note for any minimum or other specific term and reserves the right to dispose of the Replacement Note or any of such Common Stock at any time in accordance with or pursuant to a registration statement or an exemption under the 1933 Act and applicable state securities laws.

b. Reliance on Exemptions. Purchaser understands that the Transferred Rights are being offered and sold to it in reliance upon specific exemptions from the registration requirements of United States federal and state securities laws and that Seller and the Company are relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of Purchaser set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire the relevant Transferred Rights.

Purchaser is not, and has not for in excess of ninety (90) days been, and subsequent to the Transfer Closing Date will not be, an “Affiliate” of the Company, as that term is defined by Rule 144 under the 1933 Act.

d. Company Information. Purchaser and its advisors, if any, have been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company, including copies of the Company most recent publicly available financial statements as available as of September 30, 2011 on the SEC’s EDGAR system. Purchaser and its advisors have been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of Seller. Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigation conducted by Purchaser or any of its advisors or representatives shall modify, amend or affect Purchaser’s right to rely on Seller’s representations and warranties contained in Section 3 below. Purchaser understands that its investment in Transferred Rights, including but not limited to the relevant Transferred Note (and/or in the Common Stock issuable thereunder), involves a significant degree of risk.

e. Governmental Review. Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Transferred Rights or of the Common Stock issuable thereunder.

f. Transfer or Resale. Purchaser understands that (i) the sale or resale of the Replacement Note and the Common Stock issuable thereunder has not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws, and the Replacement Note and the Common Stock issuable thereunder may not be transferred unless (a) such security is sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, (b) the security is sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration, (c) the security is sold or transferred to an “affiliate” (as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the 1933 Act or a successor rule; “Rule 144”) of Purchaser who agrees to sell or otherwise transfer the security only in accordance with this Section 2(f) and who is an Accredited Investor, or (d) (i) the Common Stock is sold pursuant to Rule 144, if such Rule is available; (ii) any sale of such Common Stock made in reliance on Rule 144 may be made only in accordance with the terms of said Rule and further, if said Rule is not applicable, any resale of such Common Stock under circumstances in which the seller (or the person through whom the sale is made) may be deemed to be an underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) and may require compliance with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC thereunder.

g. Authorization; Enforcement. This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized by Purchaser. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of Purchaser, and this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of Purchaser enforceable in accordance

with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation or similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of creditors’ rights and remedies or by other equitable principles of general application.
