CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, ADVANCED CELL TECHNOLOGY, INC., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to _______________________________, ____________________________________________________  (the “Holder”) or its registered assigns or successors in interest or order, without demand, the sum of __________________________________ Dollars ($_________) (“Principal Amount”), on ___________, 2010 (the “Maturity Date”), if not sooner paid.

This Note has been entered into pursuant to the terms of a subscription agreement between the Borrower, the Holder and certain other holders (the “Other Holders”) of convertible promissory notes (the “Other Notes”), dated of even date herewith (the “Subscription Agreement”), and shall be governed by the terms of such Subscription Agreement.  Unless otherwise separately defined herein, all capitalized terms used in this Note shall have the same meaning as is set forth in the Subscription Agreement.  The following terms shall apply to this Note:

ARTICLE I

INTEREST; AMORTIZATION

               1.1.            Minimum Monthly Principal Payments.   Amortizing payments of the outstanding Principal Amount of this Note shall commence on May 1, 2010 and on the first day of each month thereafter (each a “Repayment Date”) until the Principal Amount has been repaid in full, whether by the payment of cash or by the conversion of such Principal Amount into Common Stock pursuant to the terms hereof.  Subject to Section 3.1 and Article 3 below, on each Repayment Date, the Borrower shall make payments to the Holder in an amount equal to 14.28% of the initial Principal Amount, and any other amounts which are then owing under this Note that have not been paid (collectively, the “Monthly Amount”).  Amounts of conversions of Principal Amount made by the Holder or Borrower pursuant to Section 3.1 or Article III and amounts redeemed pursuant to Section 2.3 of this Note shall be applied first against outstanding fees and damages, then to Principal Amounts of not yet due Monthly Amounts commencing with the last Monthly Amount next payable and thereafter to Monthly Amounts in reverse chronological order.  Any Principal Amount and any other sum arising under this Note and the Subscription Agreement that remains outstanding on the Maturity Date shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

1.2.           Default Interest Rate.  Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (as defined in Article IV), which, if susceptible to cure is not cured within twenty (20) days, otherwise then from the first date of such occurrence, the annual interest rate on this Note shall (subject to Section 5.7) be eighteen percent (18%).  Such interest shall be due and payable together with regular scheduled Monthly Amounts.

ARTICLE II

CONVERSION AND REPAYMENT

  2.1.          Payment of Monthly Amount in Cash or Common Stock.  Subject to Sections 2.3 and 3.2 hereof, the Borrower shall pay the Monthly Amount on the applicable Repayment Date at the Borrower’s election, in either of the following manners: (i) in cash equal to 100% of the Principal portion of the Monthly Amount and 100% of all other components of the Monthly Amount, or (ii) with Common Stock at an applied conversion rate equal to the lesser of (A) the Fixed Conversion Price (as defined in section 3.1 hereof), or (B) ninety percent (90%) of the average of the four lowest daily volume weighted average prices of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the Principal Market during the ten trading days preceding such Repayment Date (as such amount may be adjusted as described herein).  Amounts paid with cash or shares of Common Stock must be delivered to the Holder not later than three business days after the applicable Repayment Date.  In the event Borrower elects to pay the Monthly Amount with Common Stock as described in subpart (ii) above, then within seven calendar days after the Borrower notifies the Holder of such election, the Holder may override or confirm such election in whole or in part, in writing and within seven calendar days after receiving the notice from Borrower either (i) consent in writing to be paid with shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Borrower’s written notice, or (ii) notify the Borrower that the Holder may send a conversion notice to Borrower in the manner set forth in Section 3.1(a) at any time during the calendar month following the relevant Repayment Date; and the conversion price with respect to such Monthly Amount (“Elected Conversion Price”) shall be 90% of the average of the four lowest daily volume weighted average prices of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the Principal Market during the ten trading days preceding the date such conversion notice is given by Holder to Borrower.  In the event Holder does not elect in writing either of the immediately preceding alternatives then Holder will be deemed to have elected to defer the payment of the relevant Monthly Amount until the Maturity Date which shall be deemed a Conversion Date under Section 3.1(a) with respect to such deferred Monthly Amount.  The Conversion Price with respect to such deferred Monthly Amount shall be the lesser of (A) the Fixed Conversion Price (as defined in section 3.1 hereof), or (B) ninety percent (90%) of the average of the four lowest daily volume weighted average prices of the Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the Principal Market during the ten trading days preceding the Maturity Date.  The Borrower must send notice to the Holder by confirmed telecopier not later than 6:00 PM, New York City time on the tenth calendar day preceding a Repayment Date notifying Holder of Borrower’s election to pay the Monthly Amount in cash or Common Stock.  The Notice must state the amount of the Monthly Amount including a description of the components of such Monthly Amount and, to the extent possible, include supporting calculations.  The same election must be made to all Holders and Other Holders.  If such notice is not given, or is not timely given or if the Monthly Redemption Amount is not timely delivered, then the Holder shall at anytime thereafter have the right on three business days prior notice to the Borrower to elect to receive such Monthly Amount in cash or Common Stock as described in Sections (i) and (ii) above.

                2.2.          Restriction on Payments in Kind.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.1, unless waived by the Holder at Holder’s sole discretion with respect to a Monthly Amount, the Borrower may not exercise its right to pay any portion of a Monthly Amount with Common Stock without the Holder’s consent unless on the day the Common Stock issued as payment of a Monthly Redemption Amount (a) an exemption from registration of the resale of shares of Common Stock to be issued in payment of the Monthly Amount is available to the Holder for the unrestricted public resale of the Conversion Shares pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) of the 1933 Act without volume or manner of sale limitations, or such shares of Common Stock are included for the unrestricted pubic resale thereof in an effective registration statement filed with the Commission,  (b) an Event of Default (or an event that with the passage of time or the giving of notice could become an Event of Default) hereunder  has not occurred or been waived, (c) the delivery of such Common Stock to Holder is timely made, (d) the amount of Common Stock (based on the aggregate Conversion Price) that would be issued in satisfaction of the Monthly Amount may not exceed for the Holder and Other Holders, in the aggregate, who receive such Common Stock, more than 40% of the aggregate daily trading volume of the Common Stock for the seven trading days preceding such Repayment Date, as reported by Bloomberg L.P. for the Principal Market, and (e) the Principal Market is either the OTC Bulletin Board, American Stock Exchange, Nasdaq Capital Market, Nasdaq National Market, or New York Stock Exchange (“Listing Condition”) from and after thirty (30) days prior to a Repayment Date.

ARTICLE III

CONVERSION RIGHTS

The Holder shall have the right to convert the principal and any interest due under this Note into Shares of the Borrower's Common Stock, $.001 par value per share (“Common Stock”) as set forth below.

3.1.           Conversion into the Borrower's Common Stock.

(a)           The Holder shall have the right from and after the date of the issuance of this Note and then at any time until this Note is fully paid, to convert any outstanding and unpaid principal portion of this Note, and accrued interest, at the election of the Holder (the date of giving of such notice of conversion being a "Conversion Date") into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock as such stock exists on the date of issuance of this Note, or any shares of capital stock of Borrower into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed or reclassified, at the conversion price as defined in Section 3.1(b) hereof (the "Fixed Conversion Price"), determined as provided herein.  Upon delivery to the Borrower of a completed Notice of Conversion, a form of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A, Borrower shall issue and deliver to the Holder within three (3) business days after the Conversion Date (such third day being the “Delivery Date”) that number of shares of Common Stock for the portion of the Note converted in accordance with the foregoing.  At the election of the Holder, the Borrower will deliver accrued but unpaid interest on the Note, if any, through the Conversion Date directly to the Holder on or before the Delivery Date.  The number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing that portion of the principal of the Note and interest, if any, to be converted, by the Conversion Price.

(b) Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 3.1(c) hereof, the fixed conversion price per share shall be equal to $0.10 (“Fixed Conversion Price”).

(c)            The Fixed Conversion Price and number and kind of shares or other securities to be issued upon conversion determined pursuant to Section 3.1(a), shall be subject to adjustment from time to time upon the happening of certain events while this conversion right remains outstanding, as follows:

A.           Merger, Sale of Assets, etc.  If (A) the Borrower effects any merger or  consolidation of the Borrower with or into another entity, (B) the Borrower effects any sale of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions,  (C) any tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Borrower or another entity) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property, (D) the Borrower consummates a stock purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off or scheme of arrangement) with one or more persons or entities whereby such other persons or entities acquire more than the 50% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (not including any shares of Common Stock held by such other persons or entities making or party to, or associated or affiliated with the other persons or entities making or party to, such stock purchase agreement or other business combination), (E) any "person" or "group" (as these terms are used for purposes of Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the 1934 Act) is or shall become the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the 1934 Act), directly or indirectly, of 50% of the aggregate Common Stock of the Borrower, or (F) the Borrower effects any reclassification of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property (in any such case, a "Fundamental  Transaction"), this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to convert into such number and kind of shares or other securities and property as would have been issuable or distributable on account of such Fundamental Transaction, upon or with respect to the securities subject to the conversion right immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction.  The foregoing provision shall similarly apply to successive Fundamental Transactions of a similar nature by any such successor or purchaser.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the anti-dilution provisions of this Section shall apply to such securities of such successor or purchaser after any such Fundamental Transaction.
 
3


B.           Reclassification, etc.  If the Borrower at any time shall, by reclassification or otherwise, change the Common Stock into the same or a different number of securities of any class or classes that may be issued or outstanding, this Note, as to the unpaid principal portion thereof and accrued interest thereon, shall thereafter be deemed to evidence the right to purchase an adjusted number of such securities and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the Common Stock immediately prior to such reclassification or other change.

C.           Stock Splits, Combinations and Dividends.  If the shares of Common Stock are subdivided or combined into a greater or smaller number of shares of Common Stock, or if a dividend is paid on the Common Stock in shares of Common Stock, the Conversion Price shall be proportionately reduced in case of subdivision of shares or stock dividend or proportionately increased in the case of combination of shares, in each such case by the ratio which the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event bears to the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to such event.

                       D.           Share Issuance.   So long as this Note is outstanding, if the Borrower shall issue any Common Stock except for the Excepted Issuances (as defined in the Subscription Agreement), prior to the complete conversion or payment of this Note, for a consideration per share that is less than the Fixed Conversion Price that would be in effect at the time of such issue, then, and thereafter successively upon each such issuance, the Fixed Conversion Price shall be reduced to such other lower issue price.  For purposes of this adjustment, the issuance of any security or debt instrument of the Borrower carrying the right to convert such security or debt instrument into Common Stock or of any warrant, right or option to purchase Common Stock shall result in an adjustment to the Fixed Conversion Price upon the issuance of the above-described security, debt instrument, warrant, right, or option and again upon the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of such conversion or purchase rights if such issuance is at a price lower than the then applicable Fixed Conversion Price.  The reduction of the Fixed Conversion Price described in this paragraph is in addition to the other rights of the Holder described in the Subscription Agreement.  Common Stock issued or issuable by the Borrower for no consideration will be deemed issuable or to have been issued for $0.001 per share of Common Stock.  The reduction of the Fixed Conversion Price described in this paragraph is in addition to the other rights of the Holder described in the Subscription Agreement.
 
4


(d)           Whenever the Conversion Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 3.1(c) above, the Borrower shall promptly mail to the Holder a notice setting forth the Conversion Price after such adjustment and setting forth a statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

(e)           During the period the conversion right exists, Borrower will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock not less than an amount of Common Stock equal to 175% of the amount of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the full conversion of this Note.  Borrower represents that upon issuance, such shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.  Borrower agrees that its issuance of this Note shall constitute full authority to its officers, agents, and transfer agents who are charged with the duty of executing and issuing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of this Note.

3.2           Method of Conversion.  This Note may be converted by the Holder in whole or in part as described in Section 3.1(a) hereof and the Subscription Agreement.  Upon partial conversion of this Note, a new Note containing the same date and provisions of this Note shall, at the request of the Holder, be issued by the Borrower to the Holder for the principal balance of this Note and interest which shall not have been converted or paid.

3.3.           Maximum Conversion.  The Holder shall not be entitled to convert on a Conversion Date that amount of the Note in connection with that number of shares of Common Stock which would be in excess of the sum of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its affiliates on a Conversion Date, (ii) any Common Stock issuable in connection with the unconverted portion of the Note, and (iii) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Note with respect to which the determination of this provision is being made on a Conversion Date, which would result in beneficial ownership by the Holder and its affiliates of more than 4.99% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Borrower on such Conversion Date.  For the purposes of the provision to the immediately preceding sentence, beneficial ownership shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Regulation 13d-3 thereunder.  Subject to the foregoing, the Holder shall not be limited to aggregate conversions of 4.99%.  The Holder shall have the authority and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section 3.3 will limit any conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of the Notes are convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the Holder.  The Holder may waive the conversion limitation described in this Section 3.3, in whole or in part, upon and effective after 61 days prior written notice to the Borrower to increase such percentage to up to 9.99%.

ARTICLE IV
