Notes
to consolidated Financial Statements
As
of June 30, 2015
The
accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Bio-Matrix Scientific Group , Inc. (“Bio-Matrix
” or “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America and the rules of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and should be read
in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s annual report filed with
the SEC on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2014. In general, interim disclosures do not repeat those contained in the
annual statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods presented have been reflected herein.
The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
NOTE
1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Bio-Matrix
Scientific Group, Inc. (“Company”) was organized October 6, 1998, under the laws of the State of Delaware as Tasco
International, Inc.
From
October 6, 1998 to June 3, 2006 its activities have been limited to capital formation, organization, and development of its business
plan to provide production of visual content and other digital media, including still media, 360-degree images, video, animation
and audio for the Internet.
On
July 3, 2006 the Company abandoned its efforts in the field of digital media production when it acquired 100% of the share capital
of Bio-Matrix Scientific Group, Inc., a Nevada corporation, (“BMSG”) for consideration consisting of 10,000,000 shares
of the common stock of the Company and the cancellation of 10,000,000 shares of the Company owned and held by John Lauring.
As
a result of this transaction, the former stockholder of BMSG held approximately 80% of the voting capital stock of the Company
immediately after the transaction. For financial accounting purposes, this acquisition was a reverse acquisition of the Company
by BMSG under the purchase method of accounting, and was treated as a recapitalization with BMSG as the acquirer. Accordingly,
the financial statements have been prepared to give retroactive effect to August 2, 2005 (date of inception), of the reverse acquisition
completed on July 3, 2006, and represent the operations of BMSG.
Through
its controlled subsidiary, Regen BioPharma, Inc., the Company intends to engage primarily in the development of regenerative medical
applications which we intend to license from other entities up to the point of successful completion of Phase I and or Phase II
clinical trials after which we would either attempt to sell or license those developed applications or, alternatively, advance
the application further to Phase III clinical trials The Company holds 18.3% of the equity and 70% of the voting power of Regen
BioPharma, Inc.
A.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The
financial statements have been prepared using the basis of accounting generally accepted in the United States of America. Under
this basis of accounting, revenues are recorded as earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred. The
Company has adopted a September 30 year-end.
B.
PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION
The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Bio-Matrix Scientific Group, inc., a Delaware corporation, Bio Matrix
Scientific Group, Inc, a Nevada corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary (“BMSG”), Regen BioPharma, Inc., a Nevada
corporation and controlled subsidiary (Regen) and Entest BioMedical, Inc., (“Entest”), a Nevada corporation which
was a majority owned subsidiary up to February 3, 2011. Significant inter-company transactions have been eliminated.
C.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. All estimates
are of a normal, recurring nature and are required for the fair presentation of the financial statements. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
D.
CASH EQUIVALENTS
The
Company considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
E.
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
Property
and equipment are recorded at cost. Maintenance and repairs are expensed in the year in which they are incurred. Expenditures
that enhance the value of property and equipment are capitalized.
F.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
Fair
value is the price that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal
or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. A fair value
hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs, where available. The following summarizes the three levels
of inputs required by the standard that the Company uses to measure fair value:
Level
1: Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level
2: Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in
markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially
the full term of the related assets or liabilities.
Level
3: Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of
the assets or liabilities.
The
Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2015 consisted of Securities Available for Sale consisting of 10,000,000
shares of Entest Biomedical, Inc and a Note Receivable from Entest Biomedical, Inc. for $12,051 . The fair value of Securities
Available for sale as of June 30, 2015 were valued according to the Level 1 input. The carrying amount of the financial instruments
is equal to the fair value as determined by the Company. The fair value of the Note Receivable was valued according to Level 3
input.
G.
INCOME TAXES
The
Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method prescribed by ASC 740, “Income Taxes.” Under this method,
deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets
and liabilities using enacted tax rates that will be in effect in the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The
Company records a valuation allowance to offset deferred tax assets if based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not
that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates
is recognized as income or loss in the period that includes the enactment date.
The
Company applied the provisions of ASC 740-10-50, “Accounting For Uncertainty In Income Taxes”, which provides clarification
related to the process associated with accounting for uncertain tax positions recognized in our financial statements. Audit periods
remain open for review until the statute of limitations has passed. The completion of review or the expiration of the statute
of limitations for a given audit period could result in an adjustment to the Company’s liability for income taxes. Any such
adjustment could be material to the Company’s results of operations for any given quarterly or annual period based, in part,
upon the results of operations for the given period. As of June 30, 2015 the Company had no uncertain tax positions, and will
continue to evaluate for uncertain positions in the future.
The
Company generated a deferred tax credit through net operating loss carry forward. However, a valuation allowance of 100%
has been established.
Interest
and penalties on tax deficiencies recognized in accordance with ACS accounting standards are classified as income taxes in accordance
with ASC Topic 740-10-50-19.
H.
BASIC EARNINGS (LOSS) PER SHARE
The
Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 260, "Earnings Per Share",
which specifies the computation, presentation and disclosure requirements for earnings (loss) per share for entities with publicly
held common stock. ASC 260 requires the presentation of basic earnings (loss) per share and diluted earnings (loss) per share.
The Company has adopted the provisions of ASC 260 effective from inception.
Basic
net loss per share amounts is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.
All options and convertible debt outstanding has an anti-dilutive effect on the EPS, therefore Diluted Earnings per Share are
the same as basic earnings per share.
I.
ADVERTISING
Costs
associated with advertising are charged to expense as incurred. Advertising expenses were $0 and $0 for the quarter ended June
30, 2015 and the year ended September 30, 2014 respectively.
NOTE
2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In
June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-10, which eliminated certain financial
reporting requirements of companies previously identified as "Development Stage Entities" (Topic 915). The amendments
in this ASU simplify accounting guidance by removing all incremental financial reporting requirements for development stage entities.
The amendments also reduce data maintenance and, for those entities subject to audit, audit costs by eliminating the requirement
for development stage entities to present inception-to-date information in the statements of income, cash flows, and shareholder
equity. Early application of each of the amendments is permitted for any annual reporting period or interim period for which the
entity's financial statements have not yet been issued (public business entities) or made available for issuance (other entities).
Upon adoption, entities will no longer present or disclose any information required by Topic 915. The Company has adopted this
standard.
The
following accounting standards updates were recently issued and have not yet been adopted by us. These standards are currently
under review to determine their impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
In
May 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The revenue recognition
standard affects all entities that have contracts with customers, except for certain items. The new revenue recognition standard
eliminates the transaction-and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance under current GAAP and replaces it with a principle-based
approach for determining revenue recognition. Public entities are required to adopt the revenue recognition standard for reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim and annual reporting periods thereafter. Early adoption is not permitted
for public entities. The Company has reviewed the applicable ASU and has not, at the current time, quantified the effects of this
pronouncement, however it believes that there will be no material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In
June 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-12 Compensation — Stock Compensation (Topic 718), Accounting
for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service
Period. A performance target in a share-based payment that affects vesting and that could be achieved after the requisite service
period should be accounted for as a performance condition under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 718, Compensation —
Stock Compensation. As a result, the target is not reflected in the estimation of the award's grant date fair value. Compensation
cost would be recognized over the required service period, if it is probable that the performance condition will be achieved.
The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after 15 December 2015 and interim periods within those annual periods.
Early adoption is permitted. The Company has reviewed the applicable ASU and has not, at the current time, quantified the effects
of this pronouncement, however it believes that there will be no material effect on the consolidated financial statements.
In
August 2014, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-15 Preparation of Financial Statements – Going Concern
(Subtopic 205-40), Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern. Under generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP), continuation of a reporting entity as a going concern is presumed as the basis for preparing financial
statements unless and until the entity's liquidation becomes imminent. Preparation of financial statements under this presumption
is commonly referred to as the going concern basis of accounting. If and when an entity's liquidation becomes imminent, financial
statements should be prepared under the liquidation basis of accounting in accordance with Subtopic 205-30, Presentation of Financial
Statements—Liquidation Basis of Accounting. Even when an entity's liquidation is not imminent, there may be conditions or
events that raise substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern. In those situations, financial
statements should continue to be prepared under the going concern basis of accounting, but the amendments in this Update should
be followed to determine whether to disclose information about the relevant conditions and events. The amendments in this Update
are effective for the annual period ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early
application is permitted. The Company will evaluate the going concern considerations in this ASU, however, at the current period,
management does not believe that it has met the conditions which would subject these financial statements for additional disclosure.
On
January 31, 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update [ASU] 2013-01, entitled Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about
Offsetting Assets and Liabilities. The guidance in ASU 2013-01 amends the requirements in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification
[FASB ASC] Topic 210, entitled Balance Sheet. The ASU 2013-01 amendments to FASB ASC 210 clarify that ordinary trade receivables
and receivables in general are not within the scope of ASU 2011-11, entitled Disclosure about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,
where that ASU amended the guidance in FASB ASC 210. As those disclosures now are modified with the ASU 2013-01 amendments, the
FASB ASC 210 balance sheet offsetting disclosures now clearly are applicable only where reporting entities are involved with bifurcated
embedded derivatives, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and lending transactions
that either are offset using the FASB ASC 210 or 815 requirements, or that are subject to enforceable master netting arrangements
or similar agreements. ASU 2013-01 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim
periods within those annual periods. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.
On
February 28, 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update [ASU] 2013-04, entitled Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several
Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date. The ASU 2013-04 amendments
add to the guidance in FASB Accounting Standards Codification [FASB ASC] Topic 405, entitled Liabilities and require reporting
entities to measure obligations resulting from certain joint and several liability arrangements where the total amount of the
obligation is fixed as of the reporting date, as the sum of the following:
The
amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among co-obligors.
Any
additional amounts the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors.
While
early adoption of the amended guidance is permitted, for public companies, the guidance is required to be implemented in fiscal
years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments need to be implemented retrospectively
to all prior periods presented for obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements that exist at the beginning
of the year of adoption. The adoption of ASU 2013-04 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s operating
results or financial position.
On
April 22, 2013, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update [ASU] 2013-07, entitled Liquidation Basis of Accounting. With ASU
2013-07, the FASB amends the guidance in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification [FASB ASC] Topic 205, entitled Presentation
of Financial Statements. The amendments serve to clarify when and how reporting entities should apply the liquidation basis of
accounting. The guidance is applicable to all reporting entities, whether they are public or private companies or not-for-profit
entities. The guidance also provides principles for the recognition of assets and liabilities and disclosures, as well as related
financial statement presentation requirements. The requirements in ASU 2013-07 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2013, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods. Reporting entities are required to apply the
requirements in ASU 2013-07 prospectively from the day that liquidation becomes imminent. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption
of ASU 2013-07 is not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s operating results or financial position.
A
variety of proposed or otherwise potential accounting standards are currently under study by standard setting organizations and
various regulatory agencies. Due to the tentative and preliminary nature of those proposed standards, the Company’s
management has not determined whether implementation of such standards would be material to its financial statements.
NOTE
3. OPTIONS AND WARRANTS
As
of June 30, 2015 the Company has no options or warrants outstanding.
NOTE
4. GOING CONCERN
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. Exclusive of
a onetime non-cash gain of $41,645,688 recognized upon the deconsolidation of Entest Biomedical, Inc., the Company generated net
losses of $30,586,221 excluding $663,649 of Equity in Net Losses of Entest Biomedical, Inc. recognized) during the period
from August 2, 2005 (inception) through June 30, 2015. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. The Company's continuation as a going concern is dependent on its ability to meet its obligations,
to obtain additional financing as may be required and ultimately to attain profitability. The financial statements do not include
any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Management
plans to raise additional funds by offering securities for cash.
During
the quarter ended March 31, 2015 Regen Biopharma Inc. raised $775,000 through the issuance of convertible debt.
During
the quarter ended June 30, 2015 Regen Biopharma Inc. raised $90,000 through the issuance of convertible debt.

As
of June 30, 2015 the Company has a Deferred Tax Asset of 10,412,444 completely attributable to net operating
loss carry forwards of approximately $30,624,837 ( which expire 20 years from the date the loss was incurred) consisting
of
(a)
$38,616, of Net Operating Loss Carry forwards acquired in the reverse acquisition of BMSG and
(b)
$30,586,221 attributable to Bio-Matrix Scientific Group, Inc. a Delaware corporation, BMSG and Regen.
Realization
of deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income during the period that deductible temporary differences
and carry forwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income. The achievement of required future taxable income is
uncertain. In addition, the reverse acquisition of BMSG has resulted in a change of control. Internal Revenue Code Sec 382 limits
the amount of income that may be offset by net operating loss (NOL) carryovers after an ownership change. As a result, the Company
has the Company recorded a valuation allowance reducing all deferred tax assets to 0.
Income
tax is calculated at the 34% Federal Corporate Rate.

CONVERTIBLE
NOTES ISSUED BY REGEN BIOPHARMA, INC.
During

value of $882,686 . Consideration for these Notes consisted of:
|
(b) |
Satisfaction
of $107,686 of existing indebtedness: |
Each
Note becomes due and payable at the demand of the Lender at any time after one year subsequent to the issuance date and bears
simple interest at 10% per annum payable quarterly at the demand of the Lender.
All
or part of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest is convertible at any time at the demand of the Lender into the Common
Shares of Regen at a price per share ( “Conversion Price”) equivalent to a 65% discount to the lowest Trading Price
(as defined below) for the Common Shares during the thirty (30) Trading Day (as defined below) period ending on the latest complete
Trading Day prior to the conversion date. “Trading Price” means the closing bid price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin
Board, or applicable trading market (the “OTCQB”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting Service”)
designated by the Lender (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTCQB is not the principal trading market for such security, the closing
bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or traded or,
if no closing bid price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid prices of
any market makers for such security that are listed in the “pink sheets” by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. If
the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price shall be
the fair market value as mutually determined by Regen and the Lender. “Trading Day” shall mean any day on which the
Common Shares are tradable for any period on the OTCQB, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities market on
which the Common Shares are then being traded. “Trading Volume” shall mean the number of shares traded on such Trading
Day as reported by such Reporting Service. The Conversion Price shall be equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends,
rights offerings, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events by Regen relating
to the Lender’s securities. Principal and interest may be prepaid in part or in full by Regen on not less than three Trading
Days prior written notice to the Lender.
Upon
expiration of the six month holding specified in Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, Regen , at the request
of the Lender, shale remove sale restrictions on one sixth (1/6) of the shares that resulted from conversions made through the
issuance of this Note , each month, for a period of six months, with all restrictions being removed by Regen Biopharma, Inc. by
the expiration of the six month subsequent to expiration of the aforementioned Rule 144 holding period.
If
the Lender converts principal into Common Stock of Regen on or prior to 180 days from the issuance of the Note the Lender shall
receive one share of Preferred Series “A” Stock of Regen Biopharma, Inc. for each share of Common Stock received through
conversion.
All
Notes were fully converted during the quarter ended March 31, 2015. 31,539,262 common shares of Regen were issued to the Convertible
Noteholders in satisfaction of the convertible indebtedness. 31,538,862 of Regen Biopharma, Inc.’s Series A Preferred shares
were issued to Noteholders pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Notes.
Regen
Biopharma, Inc. analyzed the conversion feature of the Notes for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815-15 “Derivatives
and Hedging” and determined that the embedded conversion feature should be classified as a liability due to their being
no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion features. ASC 815-15 requires
that the conversion features are bifurcated and separately accounted for as an embedded derivative contained in Regen Biopharma,
Inc.’s convertible debt. The embedded derivative is carried on the balance sheet at fair value. Any unrealized change in
fair value, as determined at each measurement period, is recorded as a component of the income statement and the associated carrying
amount on the balance sheet is adjusted by the change.
Regen
Biopharma, Inc. values the embedded derivative using the Black-Scholes pricing model and an aggregate derivative liability of
$2,368,685 was recognized by Regen Biopharma, Inc.. This liability was eliminated prior to the end of Regen Biopharma, Inc.’s
second quarter as a result of the full conversion of all Notes prior to the end of Regen Biopharma, Inc.’s second quarter.
During
the quarter ended June 30, 2015 the Regen Biopharma, Inc. issued Convertible Notes ( “Notes”) with an aggregate face
value of $90,000 . Consideration for these Notes consisted of $90,000.
All
or part of the principal and accrued but unpaid interest is convertible at any time at the demand of the Lender into the Common
Shares of Regen at a price per share ( “Conversion Price”) equivalent the lower of (1) a 65% discount to the lowest
Trading Price (as defined below) for the Common Shares during the thirty (30) Trading Day (as defined below) period ending on
the latest complete Trading Day prior to the conversion date. “Trading Price” means the closing bid price on the Over-the-Counter
Bulletin Board, or applicable trading market (the “OTCQB”) as reported by a reliable reporting service (“Reporting
Service”) designated by the Lender (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTCQB is not the principal trading market for such security,
the closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market where such security is listed or
traded or, if no closing bid price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners, the average of the closing bid
prices of any market makers for such security that are listed in the “pink sheets” by the National Quotation Bureau,
Inc. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner provided above, the Trading Price
shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by Regen and the Lender. “Trading Day” shall mean any day on
which the Common Shares are tradable for any period on the OTCQB, or on the principal securities exchange or other securities
market on which the Common Shares are then being traded. “Trading Volume” shall mean the number of shares traded on
such Trading Day as reported by such Reporting Service. The Conversion Price shall be equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock
dividends, rights offerings, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions and similar events
by Regen relating to the Lender’s securities.
Or
(2)
$0.03 per share
Principal
and interest may be prepaid in part or in full by Regen on not less than three Trading Days prior written notice to the Lender.
Upon
expiration of the six month holding specified in Rule 144(d) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, Regen , at the request
of the Lender, shall remove sale restrictions on one sixth (1/6) of the shares that resulted from conversions made through the
issuance of this Note , each month, for a period of six months, with all restrictions being removed by the Company by the expiration
of the six month subsequent to expiration of the aforementioned Rule 144 holding period.
If
the Lender converts principal into Common Stock of Regen on or prior to 180 days from the issuance of the Note the Lender shall
receive one share of Preferred Series “A” Stock of the Company for each share of Common Stock received through conversion.
During
the quarter ended June 30, 2015 the Regen issued 3,214,285 of its common shares in satisfaction of the abovementioned convertible
notes and 3,214,285 shares of its Series A Preferred stock in accordance with the terms and conditions of abovementioned convertible
notes.
Regen
Biopharma, Inc. analyzed the conversion feature of the Notes for derivative accounting consideration under ASC 815-15 “Derivatives
and Hedging” and determined that the embedded conversion feature should be classified as a liability due to their being
no explicit limit to the number of shares to be delivered upon settlement of the above conversion features. ASC 815-15 requires
that the conversion features are bifurcated and separately accounted for as an embedded derivative contained in Regen Biopharma,
Inc.’s convertible debt. The embedded derivative is carried on the balance sheet at fair value. Any unrealized change in
fair value, as determined at each measurement period, is recorded as a component of the income statement and the associated carrying
amount on the balance sheet is adjusted by the change.
Regen
values the embedded derivative using the Black-Scholes pricing model and an aggregate derivative liability of $350,666 was recognized
by the Company in connection with $90,000 of convertible notes payable issued during the quarter ended June 30, 2015. This liability
was eliminated prior to the end of Regen’s third quarter as a result of the full conversion of these convertible noted prior
to the end of Regen’s third quarter.

NOTE
9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
On
April 12, 2013 a complaint (Complaint) was filed in the U.S. District Court Southern District of the State of new York against
the Company, the Company’s Chairman and Does 1-50 by Star city Capital, LLC (“Plaintiff”) alleging securities
fraud, common law fraud, negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duties and breach of contract in connection with the
issuance of. The Plaintiff is also request declaratory relief from the Court.
The
action arises from the issuance and subsequent cancellation of 103,030,303 of the company’s common shares in satisfaction
of $17,000 of convertible indebtedness of the Company held by the Plaintiff. The Plaintiff alleges that a cancellation notice
sent by them to the Company’s transfer agent was meant to instruct the Transfer Agent simply to cancel the physical certificate
in order that an equivalent number of shares may be transferred via DWAC to the Plaintiff’s stockbroker for the benefit
of the Plaintiff. DWAC is the acronym for Deposit/Withdrawal At Custodian. The DWAC transaction system run by The Depository Trust
Company (a.k.a. DTC or CEDE & CO) permits brokers and custodial banks, the DTC participants, to request the movement of shares
to or from the issuer’s transfer agent electronically. A DWAC results in the crediting or debiting of shares to or from
DTC’s book-entry account on the records of the issuer maintained by the transfer agent.
The
Company believes that the cancellation notice sent by the Plaintiff clearly represents a cancellation of the conversion notice
itself.
The
convertible indebtedness held by the Plaintiff was convertible at Holder’s demand into the common shares of the Company’s
stock at a conversion price per share equal to 55% (the “Discount”) of the lowest closing bid price for the Company’s
common stock during the 5 trading days immediately preceding a conversion date, as reported by Bloomberg (the “Closing Bid
Price”); provided that if the closing bid price for the common stock on the date in which the conversion shares are deposited
into Holder’s brokerage account and confirmation has been received that Holder may execute trades of the conversion shares
( Clearing Date) is lower than the Closing Bid Price, then the purchase price for the conversion shares would be adjusted such
that the Discount shall be taken from the closing bid price on the Clearing Date, and the Company shall issue additional shares
to Purchaser to reflect such adjusted Purchase Price(“Reset”). The Company and the Plaintiff had agreed on a limitation
on conversion equal to 9.99% of the Company’s outstanding common stock.
On
February 2, 2015 Plaintiff and the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release to fully and finally
resolve the aforementioned legal action pursuant to the following terms and conditions:
|
(a) |
Within
seven business days of the Company’s transfer agent’s receipt of an appropriate opinion of counsel, the Company
shall deliver to Starcity or its designee or assignee (which designation or assignment shall be provided in writing) via DWAC,
103,030,303 of the common shares of the Company , it being the agreement of the parties that such issuance shall constitute
full and complete satisfaction of $17,000 due to Starcity by the Company. |
|
(b) |
The
Company shall deliver to Starcity a non interest bearing Convertible Note in the face amount of $300,000 (“Note”)
due and payable April 1, 2016. |
The
Holder of this Note is entitled, at its option, at any time after 180 days after the date that consideration of $52,500 is paid
to the Company to convert all or any amount of the principal face amount of this Note then outstanding into shares of the Company's
common stock (the "Common Stock") at a price ("Conversion Price") for each share of Common Stock equal to
the greater of
|
(i) |
fifty
five percent (55%) (the "Discount'') of the lowest closing bid price for the Company's common stock during the five (5)
trading days immediately preceding a conversion date, as reported by Bloomberg (the "Closing Bid Price") ("Initial
Conversion Price") or |
Other
than as provided in 5(p) of the Note ), the Holder shall not have the right to convert its debt into shares which, when added
to such Holder’s other holdings in the Company stock, shall have caused such Holder to hold more than to hold more than
9.99% of the Company's outstanding common stock. Section 5(p) of the Note states that:
Upon
:
(i)
a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to any person in a single transaction or series of related
transactions,
(ii)
a reclassification, capital reorganization or other change or exchange of outstanding shares of the Common Stock, or
(iii)
any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another person or entity in which the Company is not the surviving entity
(other than a merger which is effected solely to change the jurisdiction of incorporation of the Company and results in a reclassification,
conversion or exchange of outstanding shares of Common Stock solely into shares of Common Stock)
then,
in each case, Holder may convert the unpaid principal amount of this Note into shares of Common Stock immediately prior to such
event at the Conversion Price.
In
the event that Starcity fails to fund the Note by making a payment of $52,500 to the Company on or before April 1, 2015, the Company’s
obligations under this Note shall be terminated, cancelled and relinquished.

For value received, the Regen BioPharma, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) hereby absolutely and unconditionally
promises to pay to the order of_______, ON DEMAND AT ANY TIME AFTER May 7. , 2016 (the “Maturity Date”), the principal
amount of Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000) and interest on the whole amount of said principal sum outstanding and remaining from
time to time unpaid (the “Note”), commencing from the date hereof and continuing until payment in full of this Note
or conversion as hereinafter provided, at an annual rate equal to ten percent (10%) simple interest. Interest shall be payable
quarterly upon demand or upon conversion pursuant to Section 2 hereunder. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed divided by 365. Principal and interest shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America,
at the principal place of business of the Lender or at such other place as the Lender may have designated from time to time in
writing to the Company.
2. Conversion.
2.1
Conversion Right. The Lender shall have the right from time to time to convert all or a part of the outstanding and unpaid
principal amount of this Note into fully paid and non- assessable shares of Common Stock, as such Common Stock exists on the Issue
Date, or any shares of capital stock or other securities of the Company into which such Common Stock shall hereafter be changed
or reclassified at the conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) determined as provided herein (a “Conversion”).
The Lender shall have the right to convert one hundred percent (100%) of the Principal Amount immediately upon execution of this
agreement and any accrued interest may be converted as well.
The
number of shares of Common Stock to be issued upon each conversion of this Note shall be determined by dividing the principal
amount of this Note to be converted (the “Conversion Amount”) by the applicable Conversion Price as defined in this
Section 2 then in effect on the date specified in the notice of conversion, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Notice
of Conversion”), delivered to the Company by the Lender on such conversion date (the “Conversion Date”).
2.2
Conversion Price. The “Conversion Price” shall be defined as a 65% discount to the lowest Trading Price (as
defined below) for the Common Stock during the thirty (30) Trading Day (as defined below) period ending on the latest complete
Trading Day prior to the Conversion Date or 3 cents per share ( whichever is lower) . “Trading Price” means the closing
bid price on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, or applicable trading market (the “OTCQB”) as reported by a reliable
reporting service (“Reporting Service”) designated by the Lender (i.e. Bloomberg) or, if the OTCQB is not the principal
trading market for such security, the closing bid price of such security on the principal securities exchange or trading market
where such security is listed or traded or, if no closing bid price of such security is available in any of the foregoing manners,
the average of the closing bid prices of any market makers for such security that are listed in the “pink sheets”
by the National Quotation Bureau, Inc. If the Trading Price cannot be calculated for such security on such date in the manner
provided above, the Trading Price shall be the fair market value as mutually determined by the Company and the Lender. “Trading
Day” shall mean any day on which the Common Stock is tradable for any period on the OTCQB, or on the principal securities
exchange or other securities market on which the Common Stock is then being traded. “Trading Volume” shall mean the
number of shares traded on such Trading Day as reported by such Reporting Service. The Conversion Price shall be equitably adjusted
for stock splits, stock dividends, rights offerings, combinations, recapitalization, reclassifications, extraordinary distributions
and similar events by the Company relating to the Lender’s securities.
2.3
Method of Conversion. Subject to Section 2.1, this Note may be converted by the Lender by submitting to the Company a
Notice of Conversion by facsimile, e-mail or other reasonable means of communication dispatched on the Conversion Date prior to
5:00 p.m., New York, New York time. The Lender shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the
entire unpaid principal amount of this Note is so converted. The Lender and the Company shall maintain records showing the principal
amount so converted and the dates of such conversions so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon each such conversion.
In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, such records of the Company shall, prima facie, be controlling and determinative in
the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any portion of this Note is converted as aforesaid, the Lender
may not transfer this Note unless the Lender first physically surrenders this Note to the Company, whereupon the Company will
forthwith issue and deliver upon the order of the Lender a new Note of like tenor, registered as the Lender (upon payment by the
Lender of any applicable transfer taxes) may request, representing in the aggregate the remaining unpaid principal amount of this
Note.
Upon
receipt by the Company from the Lender of a facsimile transmission, e-mail, or other reasonable means of communication of a Notice
of Conversion meeting the requirements for conversion, the Company shall issue and deliver or cause to be issued and delivered
to or upon the order of the Lender certificates for the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion within five (5) business days
after such receipt. Upon receipt by the Company of a Notice of Conversion, the Lender shall be deemed to be the Lender of record
of the Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, the outstanding principal amount and the amount of accrued and unpaid interest
on this Note shall be reduced to reflect such conversion. All rights with respect to the portion of this Note being so converted
shall forthwith terminate except the right to receive the Common Stock or other securities as herein provided on such conversion.
In lieu of delivering physical certificates representing the Common Stock issuable upon conversion, provided the Company is participating
in the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) Fast Automated Securities Transfer (“FAST”) program, upon request
of the Lender, the Company shall use its best efforts to cause its transfer agent to electronically transmit the Common Stock
issuable upon conversion to the Lender by crediting the account of Lender’s Prime Broker with DTC through its Deposit Withdrawal
Agent Commission (“DWAC”) system.
2.4
Timing of the sale of Common Shares. Upon expiration of Rule 144, the Company will, at the request of the Investor, remove
the sale restrictions on one sixth (1/6) of the shares that resulted from conversions made through the issuance of this note,
each month, for a period of six months, with all restrictions being removed by the Company by the expiration of the six month
subsequent to Rule 144.
2.5
Concerning the Shares. The shares of Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock issuable
upon conversion of this Note may not be sold or transferred unless (i) such shares are sold pursuant to an effective registration
statement under the Act or (ii) the Company or its transfer agent shall have been furnished with an opinion of counsel (which
opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that
the shares to be sold or transferred may be sold or transferred pursuant to an exemption from such registration or (iii) such
shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Act (or a successor rule) ("Rule 144") or (iv) such shares

shares only in accordance with this Section 2.5 and who is an Accredited Investor as the term Accredited Investor is defined in
Rule 501 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Act.
Subject
to the removal provisions set forth below, until such time as the shares of Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock issuable
upon conversion of this Note have been registered under the Act or otherwise may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction
as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately sold, each certificate for shares of issuable
upon conversion of this Note that has not been so included in an effective registration statement or that has not been sold pursuant
to an effective registration statement or an exemption that permits removal of the legend, shall bear a legend substantially in
the following form, as appropriate:
"NEITHER
THE ISSUANCE OR SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I)

(B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE LENDER), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS
NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT."

legend set forth above shall be removed and the Company shall issue to the Lender a new certificate therefore free of any transfer
legend if (i) the Company or its transfer agent shall have received an opinion of counsel, in form, substance and scope customary
for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions, to the effect that a public sale or transfer of such Common Stock and/or Preferred
Stock may be made without registration under the Act and the shares are so sold or transferred, (ii) such Lender provides
the Company or its transfer agent with reasonable assurances that the Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock issuable upon
conversion of this Note (to the extent such securities are deemed to have been acquired on the same date) can be sold pursuant
to Rule 144 or (iii) in the case of the Common Stock and/or Preferred Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note, such
security is registered for sale by under an effective registration statement filed under the Act or (iv) otherwise may be sold
pursuant to Rule 144 without any restriction as to the number of securities as of a particular date that can then be immediately
sold.

of the Company on or prior to 180 days from Issuance shall receive one share of Preferred Series “A” Stock of the
Company for each share of Common Stock received through conversion. Lenders who convert principal into Common Stock of the
Company after 180 from Issuance shall receive no shares of Preferred Stock of the Company.
3. Prepayment.

Background
Regen
BioPharma has purchased a US patent and licensed Benitec Biopharma’s ddRNAi technology for the field of use of inhibiting
indolamine 2,3 deoxygenase (IDO) in dendritic cells (DC) for the purpose of immune stimulation in cancer patients.
Through
silencing of murine IDO in DC, Regen scientist Dr. Wei-Ping Min demonstrated inhibition of melanoma and breast cancer in the B16[1]
and 4T1 models[2], respectively.
Based
on these preclinical data, Regen BioPharma submitted an IND for treatment of breast cancer in patients that have failed conventional
therapy. The FDA responded to this IND requesting “in vitro and/or in vivo confirmation of efficacy of the human siRNA sequences
proposed for the clinical trial” before the clinical trial can be initiated.
The
experiments proposed below are designed to demonstrate in vitro efficacy of human IDO siRNA in the human DC in vitro model. Upon
completion of these experiments, the results will be submitte to the FDA for allowance to initiate clinical trials.
Objectives
|
• |
Development
and optimization of sensitive molecular methods (reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR)) for detecting the
IDO gene, initially in human cancer cells[3], which then will be transferred to human dendritic cells |
|

Rationale
Although
the main role of the immune system is to protect the body from foreign pathogens, the immune system also requires a “regulatory”
arm in order to prevent immune responses from destroying not only the pathogen, but also the body. Examples of unrestrained immune
responses include autoimmune conditions, in which the immune system starts attacking the pancreas (Type 1 Diabetes), the nervous
system (multiple sclerosis) or collagen protein in the joints (rheumatoid arthritis). A more severe example of unrestrained immune
response is sepsis, where the immune activation against blood borne infections results in death of the patient. The immune system
possesses regulatory cells, whose role in the body is to restrain immunity. One specific type of regulatory cell is the immature
DC. While mature DC are known to be one of the most potent activators of immunity, in the immature state, DC actively suppress
T cell activation. Immature dendritic cells are found in pregnancy to protect the fetus from maternal immune attack against proteins
found on the fetus that are inherited from the father[4]. Immature DC are also found in tumors, and contribute to tumor
escape from the immune system[5]. Other conditions associated with immune regulation such as viral infections[6],
bacterial infections[7], and remission from autoimmune diseases[8] are associated with immature DC.
One
of the main molecular mechanisms by which immature DC suppress the immune system is through high expression of the enzyme indolamine
2,3 deoxygenase (IDO). IDO was originally discovered in 1967 in the rabbit intestine and has been the object of renewed attention
by immunologists in view of its capacity to act as an inducible negative regulator of T cell viability, proliferation, and activation
during inflammation. In addition to potential in direct effects by IDO on APC function, IDO has been proposed to suppress T cells
by degrading tryptophan and increasing the level of tryptophan degradation products (kynureneria and quinolinate). Both of these
activities suppress T cell response by inducing T cell apoptosis.
It
has been shown that immune suppression in cancer[9], pregnancy[10], and viral infection[11] can
be overcome by chemical inhibition of IDO. Unfortunately, chemical inhibitors of IDO, to date, do not possess specificity towards
IDO, and are associated with various side effects[12]. Additionally, administration of chemical inhibitors is not selective
to immune cells, given that IDO possesses numerous functions, systemic administration of inhibitors is not likely to induce sufficient
suppression of the enzyme where it is needed, in the tumor associated DC.
Induction
of RNA interference (RNAi) by administration of siRNA represents a highly specific and efficient mechanism of blocking gene expression.
As an endogenous viral defense mechanism, RNA interference (RNAi) uses a specific subset of enzymes that can bind and cleave homologous
transcripts within mammalian and plant cells. Dr. Wei-Ping Min from the University of Western Ontario has previous used siRNA
to silence immune-associated genes for the purpose of inducing immunomodulation in a publication with Dr. David Koos CEO of Regen
BioPharma[13]. Whereas in the mentioned publication the gene for IL-12 was silenced in DC in order to inhibit immunity,
Regen BioPharma believes that silencing of IDO in DC will stimulate cancer immunity.
Goals
|
1. |
Establishment
of assay system to detect IDO gene expression in human cancer cell lines |
Cancer
cell lines such as HeLa (cervical)[14] and MDA-MB-231 (breast)[15] have been published to express human
IDO. RT-PCR methodology methodology with primers specific to human IDO in these cell lines. This methodology will allow for detection
of the IDO gene. It is important to qualitatively establish detection of this gene so that we can quantify the level of gene silencing
that is achieved by the siRNA sequences.
|
2. |
Identification
of novel human siRNA sequences silencing IDO |
Sequences
will be developed using bioinformatics algorithms, as well as based on prior literature. Approximately 10-20 sequences will be
utilized to identify optimal silencing effect on cancer cell lines. (The use of cancer cell lines is to safe costs on given
optimizing the detection and efficacy of silencing, dendritic cells are not ideal for screening experiments due to difficulty
in expanding them).
|
3. |
Application
of optimized sequences to human DC |
Once
ideal sequences for detection of IDO and silencing elucidated, they will be applied to human DC. Gene silencing efficacy will
be assessed by RT-PCR and immune stimulating ability will be assessed by ability to induce proliferation of allogeneic lymphocytes.
This will be the human preclinical data that goes into the IND package.
Proposed
Protocols
Stage
1 of Project: Quantification of IDO mRNA Detection
MDA-MB-231
human breast cancer cells will be obtained from American Type Tissue Culture (ATCC: Manassas, VA) and grown under fully humidified
5% CO2 environment with DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS, 2% sodium pyruvate, non-essential amino acids (2 mM), penicillin (100
units/ml), streptomycin (100 µg/ml), and glutamine (4 mM) (Gibco-BRL). HeLa cells will be grown under the same conditions
with the exception that MEM will be used as the base media. Cells are passaged by trypsinization twice weekly or as needed based
on 75% confluency. For some experiments IDO induction will be achieved by pretreatment with interferon gamma at a concentration
of 1 IU/ml.
Total
RNA will be isolated using the RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN). Specifically, cells will be trypsinized and harvested at a concentration
of 5-10 x 106 cells, as a cell pellet after washing in PBS an appropriate volume of Buffer RLT Plus will be added and the cells
will be vortexted for 30 seconds. This will result in lysis of the cells, with the lysate then being spun at 3 minutes at 15000g.
The supernatant is then removed and applied to a gDNA Eliminator spin column which is then placed in a 2 ml collection tube. Subsequently,
the collected material is centrifuged for 30 s at ≥8000 x g (≥10,000 rpm). The column is discarded and the flow-through
is saved. The same volume (usually 350 μl or 600 μl) of 70% ethanol is added to the flow-through that has been collected.
Up to 700 μl of the sample, including any precipitate, is then added to an RNeasy spin column placed in a 2 ml collection tube
and the tube is centrifuged for 15 s at ≥8000 x g. The flow-through is discarded. 700 μl of Buffer RW1 is then added
to the RNeasy Mini spin column (in a 2 ml collection tube) and centrifuged for 15 s at ≥8000 x g. 500 μl of Buffer
RPE is added to the RNeasy spin column and centrifuged for 15 s at ≥8000 x g. Subsequently 500 μl of Buffer RPE is
added to the RNeasy spin column and centrifuged for 2 min at ≥8000 x g (≥10,000 rpm). The RNeasy spin column will
then be placed in a new 1.5 ml collection tube. Approximately 30–50 μl RNase-free water is added directly to the spin
column membrane and centrifuged for 1 min at ≥8000 x g to elute the RNA. Reverse transcription performed using Moloney
murine leukemia virus reverse transcriptase (Promega) following the manufacturer's instructions. Reverse-transcribed products
will be analyzed on a Mastercyler Ep Realplex (Eppendorf) using the QuantiFast SYBR Green PCR Kit (QIAGEN) according to the manufacturer's
instructions.
As
gene-specific primers, the following oligo-DNAs will be assessed

As
an internal control β-actin mRNA was also amplified using the following primers: β-actin forward, 5′-ATCTGGCACCACACCTTCTACAATGAGCTGCG-3′;
β-actin reverse, 5′-CGTCATACTCCTGCTTGCTGATCCACATCTGC-3
PCR
products will be size-separated on a 1.5% agarose gel; expression levels
normalized to the GAPDH mRNA product, and will be visualized by SYBR Safe DNA gel staining (Invitrogen).
A
minimum of 3 independent experiments will be performed per sequence assessed. If inducible expression is not observed, sequences
will be modified using internal algorithms, as well as variations in cycle number and annealing/reannealing temperatures.
Anticipated
Results: Sequences from the proposed sequences will possess varying ability to detect mRNA. This will be used as the test system
for human IDO expression. We anticipate significantly higher expression of IDO mRNA in cells that have been pretreated for 48
hours with Interferon Gamma, based on previous publications[16].
Stage
2 of Project: Identification of novel human siRNA sequences silencing IDO.
HeLa
and MDA cells either growing in stable conditions or pretreated with 1 IU/ml of interferon gamma for 48 hours under conditions
identified in stage 1 of the project to induce maximal expression of the IDO gene.
Various
siRNA sequences will be tested that have been previously shown to inhibit IDO or have been generated based on gene-specific algorithms.
To prepare the modified siRNA duplexes, complementary strands were mixed at equal concentrations, then heated at 70° for 1
min and allowed to anneal at 37° for 30 min. Successful annealing will be assessed with polyacrlamide gel electrophoresis.
Specific
sequences tested will include:

- 5′-PUUCCCAGAACCCUUCAUACUU-3′
- 5′-PUUAGCAAAGUGUCCCGUUCUU-3′
Cells
will be transfected using the Amaxa Nucleofector Kit V (Amaxa biosystems, Koeln, Germany). Briefly, 3 * 105 cells
were resuspended in 100 µl of the nucleofector solution V and mixed with 1.5 µg of siRNA, then electroporated using
program V005. Alternatively, lipofectamine based transfection may be utilized depending on efficacy.
Suppression
of IDO gene expression will be assessed using the method identified as most sensitive from Project Stage 1.
Anticipated
Results: These experiments will provide ideal siRNA sequences for silencing of the IDO gene. These sequences will be utilized
as the basis of silencing IDO in DC in the next Stage of the project.
Stage
3 of Project: Application of optimized sequences to human DC.
DC
will be generated from peripheral blood of healthy volunteers. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) will be purified from
heparinized blood on lymphoprep cushions (LSM; Organon Teknilra Corp., Rockville, MD) and resuspended in RPMI-10% FCS, and allowed
to adhere to 6-well plates (Costar Corp., Cambridge, MA). After 2 h incubation at 37 Celsius, the nonadherent cells will be removed
and the adherent cells will subsequently be washed in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), followed by detachment by incubation with
Mg 2+ and Ca 2+ free PBS containing 0.5 mM EDTA at 37 Celsius. The adherent fraction is subsequently cultured at 3 x 10(6)/ml
in RPMI-10% FCS supplemented with 50 ng/ml GM-CSF and 1,000 U/ml IL-4. Media is changed every 2 days for a total of 8 days culture.
DC will be isolated by positive selection for CD83 and subsequently exposed to IFN-gamma on day 6 of culture. The siRNA sequences
identified in Stage 2 of the project will be utilized. IDO gene expression will be assessed by RT-PCR using primers identified
in Stage 1 of the project.
Successfully
silenced DC will be assessed for immunological responsiveness by ability to stimulate mixed lymphocyte reaction
