NOTICE AND QUESTIONNAIRE

The undersigned beneficial holder of Registrable Securities of Patient Safety Technologies, Inc. (the “Issuer”) understands that the Issuer has filed or intends to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Registration Statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms of the Subscription Agreement, dated as of August __, 2006 (the “Subscription Agreement”), by and among the Issuer and the purchasers of the Issuer’s securities thereunder. The Subscription Agreement is available from the Issuer upon request at the address set forth below. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them in the Subscription Agreement.

Each beneficial owner of Registrable Securities that has agreed to be bound by certain provisions of the Subscription Agreement is entitled to the benefits of the Subscription Agreement under such provisions. In order to sell or otherwise dispose of any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement, a beneficial owner of Registrable Securities generally will be required to be named as a selling securityholder in the related prospectus, deliver a prospectus to purchasers of Registrable Securities and be bound by those provisions of the Subscription Agreement applicable to such beneficial owner (including certain indemnification provisions as described below). Beneficial owners that do not complete this Notice and Questionnaire and deliver it to the Issuer as provided below will not be named as selling securityholders in the prospectus and therefore will not be permitted to sell any Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement.

Accordingly, holders and beneficial owners of Registrable Securities are advised to consult their own securities law counsel regarding the consequences of being named or not being named as a selling securityholder in the Registration Statement and the related prospectus.

Notice

The undersigned beneficial owner (the “Selling Stockholder”) of Registrable Securities hereby requests that the Issuer include in the Registration Statement the Registrable Securities beneficially owned by it and listed below in Item 3 (unless otherwise specified under Item 3) pursuant to the Registration Statement.
