Bio Matrix Scientific Group, Inc.(“BMSN”) in consideration of $4,000 owed to BMSN by Regen.
The
Board of Directors of the Company have authorized 600,000 shares of the Series AA Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001. With respect
to each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation, each holder of Series AA Preferred Stock shall be entitled
to cast that number of votes which is equivalent to the number of shares of Series AA Preferred Stock owned by such holder times
ten thousand (10,000). Except as otherwise required by law holders of Common Stock, other series of Preferred issued by the Corporation,
and Series AA Preferred Stock shall vote as a single class on all matters submitted to the stockholders.
The
issuance of shares of Series AA Preferred Stock, with disproportionately high voting rights generally, will adversely affect the voting
power of holders of common stock of the Company. To the extent that the Series AA Preferred Stock may have anti-takeover effects,
the Company believes that the ability of the Company to issue shares with such voting power will encourage persons seeking to
acquire the Company to negotiate directly with the Board of Directors enabling the Board of Directors to consider the proposed
transaction in a manner that best serves the stockholders’ interests.

Dear Dr.
Mivev
This
letter is a follow up to our previous discussion about the Scientific Advisory Board for Regen BioPharma, Inc. The
function of the Scientific Advisory Board is to review research directions that Regen BioPharma, Inc. may undertake, determining
those projects which may lead to future developments/advancements in the field of stem cell therapy. Other areas may be pursued
as well, with advice from this advisory board.
You
will receive 100,000 shares of Regen Biopharma, Series A Preferred Stock.Regen’s common stock currently trades on the OTC
Bulletin Board. The Company anticipates obtaining a stock symbol for the Series A preferred in the near future. The 100,000 shares
of Biopharma, Series A Preferred shares are consideration for participating in telephonic calls/conference calls and serving on
Regen BioPharma, Inc.’s Scientific Advisory Board. Under this SAB agreement ,the frequency and timing of such calls will
be approximately one call every month
Additionally,
this agreement may be renewed by mutual consent each year on its anniversary date for a maximum of 2 additional years. The compensation
on renewal will be another payment of 100,000 Series A preferred stock in Regen on each anniversary that this contract is renewed
by the Company.
It
is anticipated that members of the Scientific Advisory Board will potentially serve as primary research consultants to the Company
as such projects are undertaken. Compensation for such projects will be negotiated separately on a case-by-case basis between
the Company and the consultant.
Thank You
for your consideration.
