      FOR VALUE
RECEIVED, the undersigned, BioTime, Inc., a California corporation (Borrower")
hereby promises to pay to the order of ___________("Lender") the principal sum
of _____________ DOLLARS ($_______________) or such lesser amount as may from
time to time be outstanding as the Loan pursuant to that certain Second Amended
and Restated Revolving Line of Credit Agreement, dated February 15, 2008,
between Borrower and Lender (the "Credit Agreement"), together with interest on
the unpaid balance of the Loan at the rate or rates hereinafter set
forth.  This Revolving Credit Note is one of the Notes described in
the Credit Agreement.  All capitalized terms not otherwise defined in
this Note shall have the meanings defined in the Credit Agreement.

      


      1.          
 Terms of Payment.

      


      (a)           Interest
Rate.  Interest shall accrue and be payable at the rate of 12%
per annum on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan.  Interest
shall accrue from the date of each disbursement of principal pursuant to a
Draw.  Accrued interest shall be paid with principal. Interest will be
charged on that part of outstanding principal of the Loan which has not been
paid and shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and a 30-day
month.

      


      (b)           Payments of
Principal.  The outstanding principal balance of the Loan,
together with accrued interest, shall be paid in full on the Maturity
Date.

      


      (c)           Mandatory Prepayment of
Principal.  In the event that Borrower receives Earmarked
Funds, Borrower shall use the Earmarked Funds to prepay principal, plus accrued
interest, within two business days after such Earmarked Funds are received by
Borrower, and the amount of principal so prepaid shall reduce the Maximum Loan
Amount.

      


      (d)           Optional Prepayment of
Principal.  Borrower may prepay principal, with accrued
interest, at any time and the amount of principal so prepaid shall be available
for further Draws by Borrower during the Draw Period to the extent that the
prepayment of principal was not required under paragraph (c) of this Section
1.

      


      (e)           Default Interest
Rate.  In the event that any payment of principal or interest
is not paid within five (5) days from on the date on which the same is due and
payable, such payment shall continue as an obligation of the Borrower, and
interest thereon from the due date of such payment and interest on the entire
unpaid balance of the Loan shall accrue until paid in full at the lesser of (i)
fifteen percent (15%) per annum, or (ii) the highest interest rate permitted
under applicable law (the "Default Rate").  From and after the
Maturity Date or upon acceleration of the Note, the entire unpaid principal
balance of the Loan with all unpaid interest accrued thereon, and any and all
other fees and charges then due at such maturity, shall bear interest at the
Default Rate.


      
        
           


        

        
           


          
            

          

        

        
           


        

      

      


      (f)        
   Date of
Payment.  If the date on which a payment of principal or
interest on the Loan is due is a day other than a Business Day, then payment of
such principal or interest need not be made on such date but may be made on the
next succeeding Business Day.

      


      (g)           Application of
Payments.  All payments shall be applied first to costs of
collection, next to late charges or other sums owing Lender, next to accrued
interest, and then to principal, or in such other order or proportion as Lender,
in its sole discretion, may determine.

      


      (h)           Currency.  All
payments shall be made in United States Dollars.

      


      2.          
 Events of
Default.  The following shall constitute Events of Default: (a)
the default of Borrower in the payment of any interest or principal due under
this Note or the Credit Agreement or any other Note arising under the Credit

or assets; (h) the appointment of any receiver, trustee, custodian, conservator,
liquidator, rehabilitator, or similar officer for Borrower, or for all or any
part of the property or assets of Borrower, without the application or consent

calendar days; (i) Borrower instituting or consenting to any proceeding under
any Debtor Relief Law with respect to Borrower or all or any part of its
property or assets, or the institution of any similar case or proceeding without

Borrower, or the winding-up of the business or affairs of Borrower; (k) the
taking of any action by Borrower to initiate any of the actions described in
clauses (e) through (j) of this paragraph; (l) the issuance or levy of any

      3.        
   Remedies On
Default.  Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, at
Lender's option, all unpaid principal and accrued interest, and all other
amounts payable under this Note shall become immediately due and payable without
presentment, demand, notice of non-payment, protest, or notice of
non-payment.  Lender also shall have all other rights, powers, and
remedies available under the Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document, or
accorded by law or at equity.  All rights, powers, and remedies of
Lender may be exercised at any time by Lender and from time to time after the
occurrence of an Event of Default.  All rights, powers, and remedies
of Lender in connection with this Note and any other Loan Document are
cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other rights,
powers, or remedies provided by law or equity.

      


      4.          
 Miscellaneous.

      


      (a)           Borrower
and all guarantors and endorsers of this Note severally waive (i) presentment,
demand, protest, notice of dishonor, and all other notices; (ii) any release or
discharge arising from any extension of time, discharge of a prior party,
release of any or all of the security for this Note, and (iii) any other cause
of release or discharge other than actual payment in full of all indebtedness
evidenced by or arising under this Note.

      


      (b)           No
delay or omission of Lender to exercise any right, whether before or after an
Event of Default, shall impair any such right or shall be construed to be a
waiver of any right or default, and the acceptance of any past-due amount at any
time by the Lender shall not be deemed to be a waiver of the right to require
prompt payment when due of any other amounts then or thereafter due and
payable.  The Lender shall not be deemed, by any act or omission, to
have waived any of Lender's rights or remedies under this Note unless such
waiver is in writing and signed by Lender and then only to the extent
specifically set forth in such writing.  A waiver with reference to
one event shall not be construed as continuing or as a bar to or waiver of any
right or remedy as to a subsequent event.

      


      (c)           Lender
may accept, indorse, present for payment, and negotiate checks marked "payment
in full" or with words of similar effect without waiving Lender's right to
collect from Borrower the full amount owed by Borrower.

      


      (d)           Time is of the essence under this
Note.  Upon any Event of Default, the Lender may exercise all
rights and remedies provided for in this Note and by law, including, but not
limited to, the right to immediate payment in full of this Note.

      


      (e)           The
rights and remedies of the Lender as provided in this Note, in the Credit
Agreement, and in the Security Agreement and in law or equity, shall be
cumulative and concurrent, and may be pursued singularly, successively, or
together at the sole discretion of the Lender, and may be exercised as often as
occasion therefor shall occur; and the failure to exercise any such right or
remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or a release of any such right
or remedy.

      (f)          
 It is expressly agreed that if this Note is referred to an attorney or if
suit is brought to collect this Note or any amount due under this Note, or to
enforce or protect any rights conferred upon Lender by this Note then Borrower
promises and agrees to pay on demand all costs, including without limitation,
reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by Lender in the enforcement of Lender's
rights and remedies under this Note, and such other agreements.

      


      (g)           The
terms, covenants, and conditions contained in this Note shall be binding upon
the heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns of Borrower, and
each of them, and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns of Lender.

      


      (h)           This
Note shall be construed under and governed by the laws of the State of
California without regard to conflicts of law.

      


      (i)          
 No provision of this Note shall be construed or so operate as to require
the Borrower to pay interest at a greater rate than the maximum allowed by
applicable state or federal law.  Should any interest or other charges
paid or payable by the Borrower in connection with this Note or the Loan result
in the computation or earning of interest in excess of the maximum allowed by
applicable state or federal law, then any and all such excess shall be and the
same is hereby waived by Lender, and any and all such excess paid shall be
credited automatically against and in reduction of the outstanding principal
balance due of the Loan, and the portion of said excess which exceeds such
principal balance shall be paid by Lender to the Borrower.
