its Note in full and satisfaction and cancellation of all of Biophan’s
obligations under the Transaction Documents (other than the Warrants and the
Fee
Warrants (as defined in the Forbearance Agreement) if Purchaser elects to retain
the same as hereinafter provided, or including the Warrants and the Fee Warrants
if the same are surrendered as hereinafter provided), either (i) to surrender
its Warrants and Fee Warrants to Biophan for cancellation, and in consideration
receive the “Cash Payment”, the “Repayment Shares” and the “Premium Shares”
allocated to Purchaser under the columns on the attached table that are
designated as “Option A - Premium Shares and Cancellation of Warrants”, or (ii)
to retain its Warrants and Fee Warrants on their current terms without any

and receive the “Cash Payment” and the “Repayment Shares” allocated to Purchaser
under the columns on the attached table that are designated as “Option B -
Warrants Remain in Place”.
(b) If

Biophan notice of its election to receive the consideration set forth in (a)(i)
above, and to surrender to Biophan on or before September 25, 2008 its Warrants
for cancelation.
2.
Continued
Validity of Transaction Documents under Purchase Agreements.
The
parties hereto agree that (x) this Amendment shall be effective only if executed
and delivered by all of the Purchasers, and (y) the Purchase Agreement and
the
Transaction Documents entered into in connection therewith (as amended by this
Amendment), and the Forbearance Agreement, remain in full force and effect,
modified to the extent and only to the extent necessary to give effect to this
Amendment and the transactions herein contemplated.
3.
Entire
Agreement.
This
Amendment and the Transaction Documents and the Forbearance Agreement, together
with the exhibits and schedules thereto, contain the entire understanding of
the
parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior
agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters,
which the parties acknowledge have been merged into such documents, exhibits
and
schedules.
4.
Equal
Treatment of Purchasers.
No
consideration shall be offered or paid to any person to amend or consent to
a
waiver or modification of any provision of any of the Transaction Documents
(or
the Forbearance Agreement) unless the same consideration is also offered to
all
of the parties to the Transaction Documents (and the Forbearance Agreement).
For
clarification purposes, this provision constitutes a separate right granted
to
Purchaser and each of the other parties to the Purchase Agreement by Biophan
and
negotiated separately by Purchaser and each of the other parties to the Purchase
Agreement, and is intended to treat, for Biophan, the Purchaser and the other
parties to the Purchase Agreement as a class and shall not in any way be
construed as the Purchasers acting in concert or as a group with respect to
the
purchase, disposition or voting of Securities or otherwise.
5.
Public
Announcement.
Biophan
shall, by 8:30 a.m. Eastern time on September 24, 2008, issue a press release
disclosing the material terms of the transactions contemplated hereby and timely
file a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “8-K Filing”), attaching such press
release and this Amendment. From and after the filing of the 8-K Filing with
the
Commission, the Company represents that Purchaser shall not be in possession
of
any material, nonpublic information received from the Company, any of its
Subsidiaries or any of its respective officers, directors, employees or agents
that is not disclosed in the 8-K Filing. Biophan shall not, and shall cause
each
of its Subsidiaries and its and each of their respective officers, directors,
employees and agents, not to, provide Purchaser with any material, nonpublic
information regarding the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from and after
the
filing of the 8-K Filing with the Commission without the express written consent
of Purchaser.
6.
Notices.
Any and
all notices or other communications or deliveries required or permitted to
be
provided hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given and effective
as specified in the Purchase Agreement. The address for such notices and
communications shall be as set forth on the signature pages attached to the
Purchase Agreement.

Miscellaneous.
|
7.1.
Amendments;
Waivers.
No
provision of this Amendment may be waived or amended except in a written
instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by Biophan, Purchaser and all
of
the other parties to the Purchase Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by
the
party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any
default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this
Amendment shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver
of
any subsequent default or a waiver of any other provision, condition or
requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of either party to exercise
any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such
right.
7.2.
Amendment
Controls.
If any
topic is addressed both in the Purchase Agreement (or any document related
thereto) and in this Amendment, this Amendment shall control.
7.3
Construction.
The
headings herein are for convenience only, do not constitute a part of this
Amendment and shall not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions
hereof. The language used in this Amendment will be deemed to be the language
chosen by the parties to express their mutual intent, and no rules of strict
construction will be applied against any party.
7.4
Governing
Law.
All
questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation
of this Amendment shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance
with the internal laws of the State of New York, without regard to the
principles of conflicts of law thereof. The parties agree that Section 7.9
of
the Purchase Agreement shall apply to this Amendment as if set forth in its
entirety herein.
7.5
Survival.
The
representations and warranties contained herein shall survive for the applicable
statue of limitations.
7.6
Execution.
This
Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken
together shall be considered one and the same document and shall become
effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to
the
other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same
counterpart.
7.7
Severability.
If any
provision of this Amendment is held to be invalid or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity and enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions
of this Amendment shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and
the
parties will attempt to agree upon a valid and enforceable provision that is
a
reasonable substitute therefore, and upon so agreeing, shall incorporate such
substitute provision in this Amendment.
7.8
Independent
Nature of Purchasers’ Obligations and Rights.
The
obligations of Purchaser hereunder are several and not joint with the
obligations of any other party to the Purchase Agreement, and Purchaser shall
not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any
other party to the Purchase Agreement. Nothing contained herein, and no action
taken by Purchaser pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute Purchaser
as a
member of a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind
of
entity, or create a presumption that Purchaser and any of the other parties
to
the Purchase Agreement are in any way acting in concert or as a group with
respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby. Purchaser
shall be entitled to independently protect and enforce its rights, including,
without limitation, the rights arising out of this Amendment and it shall not
be
necessary for any party to the Purchase Agreement to be joined as an additional
party in any proceeding for such purpose. Purchaser has not relied upon the
same
legal counsel in its review and negotiation of this Amendment. Biophan has
elected to provide Purchaser with the same terms and form of Amendment as
provided to all other parties to the Purchase Agreement for the convenience
of
Biophan and not because it was required or requested to do so by any party
to
the Purchase Agreement. Purchaser represents that it has been represented by
its
own separate legal counsel in its review and negotiations of this
Amendment.
