-9-
(a) Subscriber is acquiring the Securities for its own
account, for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection
with, any distribution or public offering thereof within the meaning of the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") and applicable state securities
laws.
(b) Subscriber understands that (1) the Securities (A)
have not been registered under the Act or any state securities laws, (B) will be
issued in reliance upon an exemption from the registration and prospectus
delivery requirements of the Act pursuant to Section 4(2) and/or Regulation D
thereof, (C) will be issued in reliance upon exemptions from the registration
and prospectus delivery requirements of state securities laws which relate to
private offerings and (D) must be held by Subscriber indefinitely, and (2)
Subscriber must therefore bear the economic risk of such investment indefinitely
unless a subsequent disposition thereof is registered under the Act and
applicable state securities laws or is exempt therefrom. Subscriber further
understands that such exemptions depend upon, among other things, the bona fide
nature of the investment intent of Subscriber expressed herein. Pursuant to the
foregoing, Subscriber acknowledges that the certificate representing the
Securities acquired by Subscriber shall bear a restrictive legend substantially
as set forth in Section 3.1(a)(i) hereof.
(c) Subscriber has knowledge, skill and experience in
financial, business and investment matters relating to an investment of this
type and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such investment and
protecting Subscriber's interest in connection with the acquisition of the
Securities. Subscriber understands that the acquisition of the Securities is a
speculative investment and involves substantial risks and that Subscriber could
lose Subscriber's entire investment in the Securities. To the extent deemed
necessary by Subscriber, Subscriber has retained, at its own expense, and relied
upon, appropriate professional advice regarding the investment, tax and legal
merits and consequences of purchasing and owning the Securities. Subscriber has
the ability to bear the economic risks of Subscriber's investment in Isolagen,
including a complete loss of the investment, and Subscriber has no need for
liquidity in such investment.
(d) Subscriber has been furnished by Purchaser and
Isolagen all information (or provided access to all information) and has
reviewed all public filings regarding the business and financial condition of
Purchaser and Isolagen, their expected plans for future business activities, the
attributes of the Securities and the merits and risks of an investment in the
Securities which Subscriber has requested or otherwise needs to evaluate the
investment in the Securities.
(e) In making the proposed investment decision,
Subscriber is relying solely on investigations made by Subscriber and
Subscriber's representatives. The offer to sell the Securities was communicated
to Subscriber in such a manner that Subscriber was able to ask questions of and
receive answers from the management of Purchaser and Isolagen concerning the
terms and conditions of the proposed transaction and that at no time was
Subscriber presented with or solicited by or through any leaflet, public
promotional meeting, television advertisement or any other form of general or
public advertising or solicitation.
-10-
(f) Subscriber acknowledges that Isolagen is not under an
obligation to register the Securities under the Act or the securities laws of
any state. In addition, Subscriber acknowledges that Subscriber has been advised
that:
THE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED BY THE
SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION NOR HAS
THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION OR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION PASSED
UPON THE ACCURACY OR ADEQUACY OF ANY REPRESENTATIONS BY PURCHASER. ANY
REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
IN MAKING AN INVESTMENT DECISION SUBSCRIBER MUST RELY ON HIS
OWN EXAMINATION OF PURCHASER AND THE TERMS OF THE OFFERING, INCLUDING THE MERITS
AND RISKS INVOLVED. THE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN RECOMMENDED BY ANY FEDERAL OR
STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY. FURTHERMORE, THE FOREGOING
AUTHORITIES HAVE NOT CONFIRMED THE ACCURACY OR DETERMINED THE ADEQUACY OF ANY
REPRESENTATION. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
THE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY
AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE
SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS,
PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. SUBSCRIBER IS AWARE THAT
SUBSCRIBER MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN
INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME.
(g) Subscriber acknowledges and is aware that there has
never been any representation, guarantee or warranty made by Purchaser or
Isolagen or any officer, director, employee or agent or representative of
Purchaser or Isolagen, expressly or by implication, as to (i) the approximate or
exact length of time that Subscriber will be required to remain an owner of the
Securities; (ii) the percentage of profit and/or amount of or type of
consideration, profit or loss to be realized, if any, as a result of this
investment; or (iii) that the limited past performance (if any) or experience on
the part of Purchaser or Isolagen, or any future expectations will in any way
indicate the predictable results of the ownership of Securities or of the
overall financial performance of Purchaser or Isolagen.
(h) Subscriber further represents and warrants that each
of its owners is an "Accredited Investor" within the meaning of Regulation D, as
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
6.3 Right of First Refusal.
(a) In the event one or more patents (whether one or
more, the "Patents") are issued pursuant to the Patent Applications and, within
three years after their issuance, no activity
-11-
has been commenced or is continuing to attempt to realize commercial value from
any of the Patents, including without limitation, clinical trials or licensing
efforts, Seller shall have the right to require Purchaser, by written notice
(the "Sale Demand"), to use its commercially reasonable best efforts to market
the Patents. Purchaser shall deliver to Seller a plan to market the Patents
within sixty (60) days after the receipt of the Sale Demand; provided, however,
if Purchaser has previously used commercially reasonable best efforts to market
the Patents (including any such efforts prior to issuance of the Patents) and
notified Seller of such efforts, Purchaser shall not be required to make
additional efforts or deliver such a marketing plan. In the event Purchaser
receives a bona fide third-party offer to purchase the Patents as a result of
the Sale Demand, Purchaser shall provide written notice thereof to Seller,
including a copy of the third-party offer (the "Offer Notice"), and Seller shall
have the right (the "Right of First Refusal") to purchase the Patents on the
same terms and conditions as the third-party offer by giving Purchaser written
notice of such election (the "Purchase Notice") within sixty (60) days after
receipt of the Offer Notice. If Seller fails to deliver the Purchase Notice on a
timely basis, Purchaser shall have the right to complete the sale to the third
party on the terms and conditions set forth in the Offer Notice, or Purchaser
may elect to retain the Patents. Thereafter, if Purchaser retains the Patents,
Seller shall have the right to request a further Sale Demand if Purchaser makes
no effort to market the Patents within two (2) years after a previous Sale
Demand is requested. The Right of First Refusal shall apply on the terms set
forth herein to any subsequent proposed sale of the Patents to a third-party by
Purchaser.
(b) The Right of First Refusal shall not apply to (i) any
transaction involving the Intellectual Property prior to the issuance of the
Patents or (ii) to any transaction proposed or consummated in response or
resolution to a claim by a third party that the Intellectual Property or the
Patents infringe on such Person's intellectual property rights. Further, the
Right of First Refusal shall not apply to, and shall terminate upon, a bona fide
sale to a third party of all of the common stock of Purchaser by Isolagen, a
sale of all or substantially all the assets of Purchaser or Isolagen in a bona
fide third party sale, a merger, consolidation or share exchange transaction in
which there is a change of ownership of 50% or more of the issued and
outstanding shares of common stock and shares convertible into common stock of
Isolagen or a bona fide sale to one third party purchaser or a group of third
party purchasers in a single transaction of more than 50% of the issued and
outstanding shares of common stock and shares convertible into common stock of
Isolagen.
6.4 Abandonment of Patent Applications. In the event Purchaser
decides to abandon the procurement of one or more pending patents in the Patent
Application ("Pending Patents"), Purchaser shall return all Intellectual
Property rights associated with the Pending Patents to Seller without cost.
6.5 Filing of Reports. For so long as Isolagen is subject to the
reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, Purchaser shall cause Isolagen to
file and keep current all public filings required by the Exchange Act and the
rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC thereunder, such that the reporting
requirements set forth in Section 144(c) under the Securities Act shall be
satisfied with respect to Isolagen, as issuer.
-12-
6.6 Obligations of Subscriber. By accepting the Securities issued
by Isolagen as a beneficiary of this contract, Subscriber shall assume and be
entitled to, as the case may be, all of the rights and obligations of Seller
under this Article Six.
ARTICLE 7
SURVIVAL AND INDEMNIFICATION
7.1 Indemnification of the Seller. Purchaser shall be responsible
for and shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Seller, and Seller's agents,
attorneys, representatives, third party beneficiaries (including Subscriber) and
its members), and their respective heirs, executors, successors and assigns
(collectively, the "Seller Indemnitees") from, against, and with respect to any
and all Claims or Costs suffered by any such Seller Indemnitees, as result of,
caused by, arising out of, directly or indirectly, or in any way relating to:
(a) a breach by Purchaser of any representation, warranty, covenant or
obligation set forth in this Agreement or (b) Purchaser's development,
ownership, management, control, use or disposition of the Intellectual Property
after the Closing, unless and to the extent that such Claim arises solely from
any action of Seller or any of its Affiliates after the Closing.
7.2 Indemnification of the Purchaser. Seller shall be responsible
for and shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Purchaser and its officers,
directors, shareholders, employees, agents, attorneys, representatives, and
Affiliates, and their respective heirs, executors, successors and assigns (the
"Purchaser Indemnitees") from and against any and all Claims or Costs suffered
by any such Purchaser Indemnitees as a result of, caused by, arising out of,
directly or indirectly, or in any way relating to: (a) any breach by Seller of
any representation, warranty, covenant or obligation set forth in this
Agreement; or (b) any Costs or Claims arising from Seller's ownership,
management, control, use or disposition of the Intellectual Property prior to
the Closing Date.
7.3 Demands for Third Party Claims. Each indemnified party
hereunder (an "Indemnified Party") agrees that promptly upon its discovery of
facts giving rise to a claim for indemnity under this Agreement, including the
receipt of any demand, assertion, claim, action or proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, by any third party (being referred to herein as a "Claim"), with
respect to any matter as to which it claims to be entitled to indemnity under
the provisions of this Agreement, it will give prompt notice thereof in writing
to the Indemnifying Party (the "Indemnifying Party"), together with a statement
of such information respecting any of the foregoing as it shall have. Such
notice shall include a formal demand for indemnification under this Agreement.
7.4 Right to Contest and Defend. The Indemnifying Party shall
contest and defend, at its sole cost and expense, by all appropriate legal
proceedings any Claim with respect to which it is called upon to indemnify the
Indemnified Party under the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that notice
of the intention to so contest shall be delivered by the Indemnifying Party to
the Indemnified Party as soon as reasonably possible after (but no later than
twenty [20] days from) the date of receipt by the Indemnifying Party of notice
by the Indemnified Party of the assertion of the Claim. Any such contest may be
conducted in the name and on behalf of the
-13-
Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party as may be appropriate. Such contest
shall be conducted by reputable counsel employed by the Indemnifying Party, but
the Indemnified Party shall have the right but not the obligation to participate
in such proceedings and to be represented by counsel of its own choosing at its
sole cost and expense. The Indemnifying Party shall have full authority to
determine all action to be taken with respect thereto; provided, however, that
the Indemnifying Party will not have the authority to subject the Indemnified
Party to any obligation whatsoever (whether financial or the imposition of
equitable or injunctive relief), other than the performance of purely
ministerial tasks or obligations not involving material expense (for which the
Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed). If the Indemnifying Party does not elect
to contest any such Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be bound by the result
obtained with respect thereto by the Indemnified Party.
7.5 Cooperation. If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the
Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its
counsel in contesting any Claim that the Indemnifying Party elects to contest
or, if appropriate, in making any counterclaim against the Person asserting the
Claim, or any cross-complaint against any Person, and the Indemnifying Party
will reimburse the Indemnified Party for any expenses incurred by it in so
cooperating. At no cost or expense to the Indemnified Party, the Indemnifying
Party shall cooperate with the Indemnified Party and its counsel in contesting
any Claim.
7.6 Right to Participate. The Indemnified Party agrees to afford
the Indemnifying Party and its counsel the opportunity to be present at, and to
participate in, conferences with all Persons, including governmental
authorities, asserting any Claim against the Indemnified Party or conferences
with representatives of or counsel for such Persons.
7.7 Payment of Damages. The Indemnifying Party shall pay to the
Indemnified Party in immediately available funds any amounts to which the
Indemnified Party may become entitled by reason of the provisions of this
Agreement, such payment to be made within five (5) days after any such amounts
are finally determined either by mutual agreement of the Parties hereto or
pursuant to the final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction.
7.8 Survival of Representations and Warranties.
(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, notwithstanding
any investigation at any time made by or on behalf of any Party hereto, the
representations and warranties set forth herein and in any certificate delivered
in connection herewith with respect to any of those representations and
warranties will survive the Closing and the Closing Date until the longer to
occur of: (i) two (2) years or (ii) the expiration of the applicable statutes of
limitation, including all periods of extension and tolling whereupon they will
terminate and expire.
(b) After a representation and warranty has expired, as
provided in Subsection 7.8(a), no claim for Claims or Costs may be made or
prosecuted by any Person who would have been entitled to Claims or Costs on the
basis of that representation and warranty prior to its termination and
expiration, provided that no claim presented in writing for Claims or Costs to
the Person or Persons from which or whom those damages are sought on the basis
of
-14-
that representation and warranty prior to its termination and expiration will be
affected in any way by that termination and expiration.
7.9 Independent Indemnities. The Parties acknowledge and agree
that each of the indemnities under Sections 7.1 and 7.2 may be relied upon
independently.
ARTICLE 8
MISCELLANEOUS
8.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including the Exhibits and

and all of which shall constitute the same instrument. In making proof of this
Agreement, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one
such counterpart. A telecopied facsimile of an executed counterpart of this

the same shall be in writing and duly executed by the Parties hereto, except
that any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived in writing
at any time by the Party which is entitled to the benefits of such waived terms
or provisions. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be

power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.

8.10 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to
conflict of law rules thereof.
8.11 Confidentiality; Publicity. The terms and conditions of this
Agreement shall not be disclosed by any Party hereto without the prior written
consent of the other Parties; provided, however, that (i) Seller may disclose
such information to its employees, attorneys and accountants and as is required
to comply with the requirements of its lenders, to obtain consents to transfer
of contract rights contemplated hereby or to otherwise remedy Encumbrances upon
the Intellectual Property and (ii) Purchaser may disclose such information to
its employees, attorneys and accountants and as is required to comply with the
requirements of its lenders. No Party hereto shall issue any press release or

arising out of this Agreement or the matters contained herein, without first
providing a copy of the text of such release to the other Party hereto and
giving such other Party an opportunity to comment thereon.
-17-
8.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid,
illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all
other provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and
effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions
contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any
Party. Upon such determination that any provision is invalid, illegal or
incapable of being enforced, the Parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to
modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as
closely as possible in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions
contemplated hereby are fulfilled.
8.13 Enforcement. The Parties hereto agree that the remedy at law
for any breach of this Agreement is inadequate and such provisions shall be
enforceable in a court of equity by an injunction or a decree of specific
performance. Such remedies shall, however, be cumulative and nonexclusive, and
shall be in addition to any other remedies which the Parties hereto may have.
8.14 Arbitration. Any controversy, dispute or claim arising out of,
in connection with, or in relation to, the interpretation, performance or breach
of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the validity, scope and
enforceability of this Section that cannot first be settled through ordinary
negotiation between the Parties shall be submitted to binding and final
arbitration conducted in Las Vegas, Nevada by and in accordance with the then
existing Rules for Commercial Arbitration of the American Arbitration
Association or any successor organization. Any such arbitration shall be to a
three member panel selected through the rules governing selection and
appointment of such panels of the American Arbitration Association or any
successor organization. The award rendered by the arbitrators may be confirmed,
entered and enforced as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction;
however, the Parties otherwise waive any rights to appeal the award except with
regard to fraud by the panel. Any such action must be brought within the
survival periods set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. The arbitrators shall
award the Party which substantially prevails in any arbitration proceeding
recovery of that Party's attorneys' fees, the arbitrators' fees and all costs in
connection with the arbitration from the Party who does not substantially
prevail. Nothing in this Section 8.14 shall restrict any Parties' ability to
seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction
prior to initiating arbitration. In the event that such injunctive or equitable
relief is sought by any Party, such Party is specifically entitled to enforce
the appropriate provisions of the Agreement in obtaining such relief in any
court of competent jurisdiction and, thereafter, submit the remaining
controversy, dispute or claim to arbitration in accordance with this Section
8.14.
