LOAN GUARANTEE, PAYMENT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT

     This Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of September 12, 2007 (the “Effective
Date”), by and between BIOHEART, INC., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), and Dan
Marino, an individual (the “Guarantor”).

WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, on June 1, 2007, the Company obtained a term loan (the “Loan”), in the
principal amount of $5,000,000, from Bank of America, N.A. (the “Bank”) pursuant to a
certain loan agreement between the Company and the Bank (the “Loan Agreement”) and related
promissory note (the “Note”);

     WHEREAS, as security for the Company’s obligations relating thereto, the Guarantor will pledge
and assign to the Bank (the “Pledge”) and grant to the Bank a first-priority security
interest in, a $500,000 (the “Collateral Amount”) letter of credit with the Bank (the
“Pledged Letter of Credit”);

     WHEREAS, the Pledged Letter of Credit is being issued as replacement, in part, for certain
letters of credit pledged on June 1, 2007 by certain other guarantors to secure the Loan;

     WHEREAS, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, Guarantor has agreed to make payments
to the Company equal to 9.1% (the “Guaranteed Percentage”) of the interest and principal
payable by the Company to the Bank in connection with the Loan, which amounts shall be used by the
Company solely to pay interest and principal on the Loan;

     WHEREAS, as consideration for the Guarantor’s agreement to make the payments described above
and to grant, in favor of the Bank, the Pledge, the Company has agreed, upon the terms and
conditions set forth herein, to (i) issue the Guarantor a warrant or warrants to purchase shares of
the Company’s common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and (ii) pay
certain fees to the Guarantor.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto,
the Company and the Guarantor agree as follows:

1. CONSIDERATION.

     1.1 PLEDGE DOCUMENTS AND PAYMENTS FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE COMPANY.

     In consideration of the Company’s issuance of the Warrant (as defined in Section 1.2 below)
and payment of the Guarantee Fee (as defined in Section 1.2 below), the Guarantor hereby agrees
that it shall:

1

 

          (a) At Closing (as defined in Section 2.1 below), execute and deliver, in favor of the Bank,
the Pledged Letter of Credit and whatever documentation (such documentation, the “Pledge
Documents”) the Bank reasonably requires in connection with the Pledge.

          (b) During the period commencing on the Effective Date and terminating on the date that the
Company’s payment obligations under the Loan are satisfied and/or discharged in full, at least ten
(10) business days prior to the due date for any payment of interest (“Interest Payment”)
or payment of principal (“Principal Payment”) or other payment required to be made by the
Company to the Bank under the Loan, pay the Company an amount equal to the product obtained by
multiplying (x) the total amount of the payment then due and (y) the Guaranteed Percentage (each
such payment, a “Guarantor Payment”); provided that the aggregate amount of
Guarantor Payments shall not exceed the Collateral Amount. The Guarantor may, at its option, elect
to make Guarantor Payments by drawing, or authorizing the Bank to draw, on the Pledged Letter of
Credit, if approved by the Bank in its sole discretion.

          (c) The Company shall apply the Guarantor Payment towards an Interest Payment, Principal
Payment or other payment due in connection with the Loan, and shall either notify the Guarantor in
writing of the due date for any such payment, or shall promptly forward to the Guarantor any
correspondence received by the Company from the Bank regarding the amount and due date of such
Interest Payment, Principal Payment or other payment (as applicable). All payments hereunder shall
be made to the Aggregation Account (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

          (d) The Guarantor hereby authorizes the Company to notify the Bank in the event that the
Guarantor fails to make a Guarantor Payment when due.

     1.2 ISSUANCE OF WARRANTS AND PAYMENT OF MONTHLY FEES

     In consideration of the Guarantor’s issuing the Pledge in favor of the Bank the Company hereby
agrees that it shall:

          (a) At Closing (as defined in Section 2.1 below), issue to the Guarantor a warrant to purchase
an aggregate of 26,300 shares (the “Subject Shares”) of the Common Stock, with an exercise
price of $4.75 per share, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Warrant”).
The Warrant will provide that the number of Subject Shares will increase to 30,000 shares of the
Common Stock in the event the Company has not satisfied and/or discharged all of its payment
obligations under the Loan (the “Loan Satisfaction”) by September 30, 2007. The Warrant
will further provide that the number of Subject Shares will increase to 37,500, 50,000 and 75,000,
respectively, in the event the Company has not satisfied and/or discharged all of its material
payment obligations under this Agreement by the first anniversary, second anniversary and third
anniversary of May 31, 2007, respectively.

          (b) Pay the Guarantor a cash fee (the “Guarantee Fee”) in the amount determined by
multiplying the Collateral Amount by 5.0% and multiplying the resulting amount by a fraction, the
numerator of which is the number of days elapsed between the date hereof and the earlier of (i) the
date of the Loan Satisfaction and (ii) February 1, 2008 (or such later date to which the maturity
date of the Note may be extended), and the denominator of which is 365. The Company shall pay the
Guarantee Fee within five (5) business days of the Trigger Date (as defined below). For purposes
of this Agreement, the “Trigger Date” shall mean the earlier to occur of: (x) the closing
date of an initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock generating at least $30 million of
net proceeds to the Company occurring on or before January 31, 2008 (a “Qualified
Offering”); and (y) the date the Company satisfies and/or discharges all of its payment
obligations (a “BlueCrest Loan Satisfaction”) under that certain Loan and Security
Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2007 by and between the Company and BlueCrest Capital Finance, L.P.
(the “BlueCrest Loan”).

2

 

          (c) If on or before the first business day of the 36th first full calendar month
after the date of the BlueCrest Loan (the “Outside Payment Date”) as of such date, the
Company has not effectuated a BlueCrest Loan Satisfaction or a Qualified Offering:

               (A) the Company shall use its best efforts to effectuate a BlueCrest Loan Satisfaction as soon
as possible following the Outside Payment Date; and

               (B) the Company shall pay the Guarantee Fee no later than five (5) business days following a
BlueCrest Loan Satisfaction.

2. THE CLOSING.

     2.1. CLOSING DATE. The parties agree to effect the transactions contemplated hereby (the
“Closing”) contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement.

     2.2 CLOSING DELIVERABLES.

          (a) At the Closing, the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Guarantor:

               (ii) an executed copy of the Warrant.

          (b) At the Closing, the Guarantor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Company an

good standing under the laws of the State of Florida and is duly qualified to do business as a

“Warrant Shares”). When the Warrant Shares have been delivered against payment in
accordance with the terms of the Warrant, such Conversion Shares will have been, validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable.

     4.3. GOVERNMENTAL CONSENTS. All consents, approvals, orders, or authorizations of, or
registrations, qualifications, designations, declarations, or filings with, any governmental

certain state and federal securities commissions, which notices shall be filed on a timely basis.

     4.4. OFFERING. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Guarantor
contained in Section 5 below, the offer, sale and issuance of the Warrant is exempt from the

qualification requirements of all applicable state securities laws.

     4.5. CAPITALIZATION. The authorized capital of the Company consists of 40,000,000 shares of

agreement or other document pertaining to the organization, power or authority of Company and no
provision of any existing agreement (including, without limitation, the Loan Agreement or the

on Company or affecting its property, which would conflict with or in any way prevent the
execution, delivery or carrying out of the terms of this Agreement.

     4.8 OWNERSHIP OF ASSETS. The Company has good title to its assets, and its assets are free
and clear of liens, except for the security interest of BlueCrest (as defined in the Loan
Agreement). For purposes of this Section 4.8, a sublicense of any of the Company’s intellectual
property is not deemed to be a “lien”.

     4.9 TAXES. All taxes and assessments due and payable by Company have been paid or are being
contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the Company has filed all tax returns which it is required to file.

period involved and fairly present Company’s financial condition as of the date or dates thereof,
and there has been no material adverse change in Company’s financial condition or operations since

5. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF THE PLEDGOR.

     The Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Company and agrees as follows:

5

 

     5.1 RELIANCE. The Guarantor understands that the Company has relied on the information and
representations with respect to the Guarantor set forth in this Section 5 in determining, among
other things, whether an investment in the Warrant is suitable for the Guarantor, and the Guarantor
represents and warrants that all such information is true and correct as of the date hereof.

     5.2 POWER AND AUTHORITY. The Guarantor has all requisite power and authority to execute and
deliver this Agreement and the Pledge Documents and to carry out and perform its obligations
hereunder and thereunder.

     5.3 EXPERIENCE. The Guarantor is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D
under the Securities Act (an “Accredited Investor”) and such Guarantor has no ability to
acquire the Warrant Shares until a date that is at least one year after the date the Warrants are
issued.

     5.4. INFORMATION AND SOPHISTICATION. The Guarantor has received all the information it has
requested from the Company that it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to
acquire the Warrant. The Guarantor has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from
the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the Warrant and to obtain any additional
information necessary to verify the accuracy of the information given to the Guarantor. The
Guarantor further represents that it has such knowledge and experience in financial and business
matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risk of the investment in the Warrant and
the Warrant Shares (collectively, the “Securities”).

     5.5 DUE DILIGENCE. The Guarantor has consulted with its own legal, regulatory, tax, business,
investment, financial and accounting advisers in connection with its determination to enter into
this Agreement. The Guarantor has made its own decisions based upon its own judgment, due
diligence and advice from such advisers as it has deemed necessary and, except for the
representations and warranties expressly set forth herein, is not relying upon any information,
representation or warranty by the Company or any agent of the Company in determining to enter into
this Agreement.

     5.6. ABILITY TO BEAR ECONOMIC RISK. The Guarantor acknowledges that investment in the
Securities involves a high degree of risk. The Guarantor is able, without materially impairing its
financial condition, to hold the Securities for an indefinite period of time and to suffer a
complete loss of its investment. Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state
securities commission has approved any of the Securities or passed upon or endorsed the merits of
the offering of the Securities by the Company.

     5.7 The Guarantor hereby acknowledges that:

IN THE EVENT THAT SALES OF THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY ARE MADE TO FIVE (5) OR
MORE PERSONS IN FLORIDA, ALL PURCHASERS IN FLORIDA HAVE THE RIGHT TO VOID THE SALE
OF THE SECURITIES OFFERED HEREBY WITHIN THREE (3) DAYS AFTER THE PAYMENT OF THE
PURCHASE PRICE IS MADE TO THE COMPANY, AN AGENT OF THE COMPANY, OR AN ESCROW
AGENT, OR WITHIN THREE (3) DAYS AFTER THE AVAILABILITY OF THAT PRIVILEGE IS
COMMUNICATED TO SUCH PURCHASER, WHICHEVER OCCURS LATER. PAYMENTS FOR TERMINATED
SUBSCRIPTIONS VOIDED BY PURCHASERS AS PROVIDED FOR IN THIS PARAGRAPH WILL BE
PROMPTLY REFUNDED WITHOUT INTEREST.

     5.8 The Guarantor shall, at all times from the date hereof until there is a Loan Satisfaction,
maintain, as security for the Loan, the Pledged Letter of Credit with the Bank.

6

 

6. REIMBURSEMENT OF PAYMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH PLEDGE DOCUMENTS AND THIS AGREEMENT.

     (a) The Company hereby agrees to pay to the Guarantor (i) all reasonable and documented costs
and expenses (including court costs and reasonable legal expenses) incurred or expended by the
Guarantor in connection with (x) the Guarantor’s negotiation, drafting and execution of this
Agreement, the Guarantee Documents and any agreements with any of the Other Guarantors (as defined
below), the Guarantor’s review of all documents in connection with the Loan and the Guarantor’s
provision of the Pledged Letter of Credit (the “Initial Expenses”) and (y) the Bank’s
taking any action against the Guarantor to enforce the Bank’s rights under the Guarantee Documents
(together with the Initial Expenses, the “Expenses”) and (ii) to repay to Guarantor the
Guarantor Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary in this
Agreement, the Company shall not be required to reimburse the Guarantor for Expenses that the
Guarantor would not have incurred but for the Guarantor’s failure to satisfy the terms and
conditions of this Agreement or the Guarantee Documents.

     (b) Each payment to be made by the Company hereunder shall be due within thirty (30) days of
the receipt by the Company of a request for reimbursement from Guarantor; provided,
however, that if the date of any reimbursement request occurs prior to the Trigger Date, such
payment shall be made within thirty (30) days after the Trigger Date or on the same date the
Company is required to pay the Guarantee Fee in accordance with Section 1.2(c) hereof, whichever
occurs first. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall reimburse the Guarantor for the
Initial Expenses within ten (10) business days of the Closing.

     (c) All payments payable by the Company hereunder shall be made in immediately available funds
to an account that the Guarantor shall designate from time to time in writing to the Company.
Payments due shall be made with interest thereon from the due date (or, in the case of the
Guarantor Payments, from the date that the Guarantor made such payment) until payment thereof by
the Company, at the Prime Rate offered by the Bank, plus 5%, and in effect as such due date. For
the avoidance of doubt, the due date for any reimbursement request shall be thirty (30) days after
the date of a written reimbursement request made by the Guarantor.

     (d) The Company shall make the payments specified above even if there is a dispute about
whether the Bank is or was entitled to take any action to enforce its rights under the Guarantee
Documents. In no event shall the Company be liable to Guarantor for any special, indirect or
consequential damages incurred by Guarantor.

     7.1 GUARANTOR DEFAULT.

     (a) The failure by the Guarantor to: (x) pay any Guarantor Payment (whether in cash or by the
Bank drawing on the Pledged Letter of Credit) which failure is not cured within two (2) business
days of the Guarantor’s receipt of written notice from the Company of such failure or (y) comply
with the covenant set forth in Section 5.8 hereto shall constitute a “Key Default” hereunder.

     (b) Upon any Key Default by the Guarantor, the following shall occur immediately and
automatically, provided that the Company shall provide Guarantor with written notice promptly upon
learning of any such default: (a) the Warrant shall be cancelled; (b) the Company’s obligations to
make payments to the Guarantor under Section 1.2(b) of this Agreement shall be terminated; and (c)
the Company’s obligations under Section 6 to reimburse the Guarantor for Expenses shall be
terminated.

7

 

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Guarantor shall indemnify,
defend and hold the Company harmless from and against all losses (including, without limitation,
reasonable attorneys fees and court costs) incurred by the Company as a result of the Guarantor’s
breach of any of its material obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, a
breach that results in a Key Default; provided, however, (z) in no event shall the
Guarantor be liable to the Company for (A) any special, indirect or consequential damages; or (B)
an amount in excess of $500,000 (the “Damages Cap”); provided, however, that if the Bank
draws upon the Pledged CD, the amount liquidated by the Bank shall reduce the Damages Cap on a
dollar for dollar basis.

     7.2 COMPANY DEFAULT. The failure by the Company to pay or perform any material obligation
hereunder which failure is not cured within two (2) business days of the Company’s receipt of
written notice from the Guarantor of such failure shall constitute a default hereunder. Upon any
such default by the Company, the Guarantor’s obligations to pay the Guarantor Payments shall be
terminated. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall
indemnify, defend and hold the Guarantor harmless from and against all losses (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys fees and court costs) incurred by the Guarantor as a result of the
Company’s failure to comply with its obligations hereunder; provided that Company’s maximum
liability to the Guarantor under this Agreement shall not exceed $500,000.

Exhibit 3(d)

Litigation / Threatened Proceeding

Law Litigation

     On March 9, 2007, Peter K. Law, Ph.D. and Cell Transplants Asia, Limited, or the Plaintiffs,
filed a complaint against Bioheart, Inc. (referred to herein as “us” or “we”) and Howard J.
Leonhardt, individually, in the United States District Court, Western District of Tennessee. On
February 7, 2000, we entered a license agreement, or the Original Law License Agreement, with Dr.
Law and Cell Transplants International pursuant to which Dr. Law and Cell Transplants International
granted us a license to certain patents, including the Primary MyoCell Patent, or the Law IP. The
parties executed an addendum to the Original Law License Agreement, or the License Addendum, in
July 2000, the provisions of which amended a number of terms of the Original License Agreement.

     More specifically, the Original License Agreement provided, among other things:

	 	•	 	The parties agreed that we would issue, and we did issue, to Cell Transplants
International a five-year warrant exercisable for 1.2 million shares of our common stock at
an exercise price of $8.00 per share instead of, as originally contemplated under the
Original Law License Agreement, issuing to Cell Transplants International or Dr. Law
600,000 shares of our common stock and options to purchase 600,000 shares of our common
stock at an exercise price of $1.80.
	 
	 	•	 	The parties agreed that our obligation to pay Cell Transplants International a $3
million milestone payment would be triggered upon our commencement of a bona fide U.S.
Phase II human clinical trial that utilizes technology claimed under the Law IP instead of,
as originally contemplated under the Original Law License Agreement, upon initiation of a
FDA approved human clinical trial study of such technology in the United States.

     The Plaintiffs are not challenging the validity of our license of the Law IP, but rather are
alleging and seeking, among other things, a declaratory judgment that the License Addendum fails
for lack of consideration. Based upon this argument, the Plaintiffs allege that we are in breach
of the terms of the Original Law License Agreement for failure to, among other things, (i) issue to
Cell Transplants International or Peter Law the 600,000 shares of our common stock and options to
purchase 600,000 shares of our common stock contemplated by the Original Law License Agreement and
(ii) pay Cell Transplants International the $3 million milestone payment upon our commencement of a
FDA approved human clinical study of MyoCell in the United States.

     The Plaintiffs have alleged, among other things, certain other breaches of the Original Law
License Agreement not modified by the License Addendum including a purported breach of our
obligation to pay Plaintiffs royalties on gross sales of products that directly read upon the
claims of the Primary MyoCell Patent and a purported breach of the contractual restriction on
sublicensing the Primary MyoCell Patent to third parties. The Plaintiffs are also alleging that we
and Mr. Leonhardt engaged in a civil conspiracy against the Plaintiffs and that the court should

 

 

toll any periods of limitation running against the Plaintiffs to bring any causes of action arising
from or which could arise from the alleged breaches.

     In addition to seeking a declaratory judgment that the License Addendum is not enforceable,
the Plaintiffs are also seeking an accounting of all revenues, remunerations or benefits derived by
us or Mr. Leonhardt from sales, provision and/or distribution of products and services that read
directly on the Law IP, compensatory and punitive monetary damages and preliminary and permanent
injunctive relief to prohibit us from sublicensing our rights to third parties.

     We believe this lawsuit is without merit and intend to defend the action vigorously. While
the complaint does not appear to challenge our rights to license this patent and we believe this
lawsuit is without merit, this litigation, if not resolved to the satisfaction of both parties, may
adversely impact our relationship with Dr. Law and could, if resolved unfavorably to us, adversely
affect our MyoCell commercialization efforts.

Threatened Proceeding

     We received notice of a potential claim by an existing shareholder, Steve May. Mr. May claims
that he filed a complaint with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 15, 2007 apparently in
connection with a request that the Company transfer to his name certain shares that were previously
issued in the name of another shareholder. Our counsel is currently attempting to contact Mr. May
to discuss the details of the transfers Mr. May is seeking to make. As best as we can tell, the
issue involves no more than 12,500 shares, but we are still seeking to understand Mr. May’s
position/rights.

September 12, 2007 (the “Effective Date”)

BIOHEART, INC.

(Incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida)

Warrant for the Purchase of Shares of Common Stock

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BIOHEART, INC., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), hereby
certifies that Dan Marino (the “Initial Holder”), or his/her/its assigns (the
“Holder”) is entitled, subject to the provisions of this Warrant, to purchase from the
Company, up to 26,300 (subject to adjustment in accordance with the four immediately succeeding
paragraphs and Section 5 below) (the “Subject Shares”) fully paid and non-assessable shares
of Common Stock at a price of $4.75 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 5
below (the “Exercise Price”) . This Warrant is being issued in connection with
that certain Loan Guarantee, Payment and Security Agreement by and between the Company and the
Initial Holder, dated as of September [___], 2007 (the “Guarantee Agreement”).

     In the event that, as of September 30, 2007, the Company has not satisfied and/or discharged
all of its payment obligations, including, without limitation, all payment obligations under the
agreements, documents and instruments entered into in connection therewith (a “Loan
Satisfaction”) under that certain $5,000,000 Loan borrowed by the Company from Bank of America,
N.A. (the “Bank of America Loan”), the number of Subject Shares shall be automatically
increased to 30,000 shares without any action required on the part of the Company or the Holder.

     In the event that, as of the first year anniversary of the closing of the Bank of America Loan
(the “Closing Date”), the Company has not satisfied and/or discharged all of its material
payment obligations to the Initial Holder under the Guarantee Agreement (a “Guarantee
Satisfaction”), the number of Subject Shares shall be automatically increased to 37,500 shares
without any action required on the part of the Company or the Holder.

1

 

     In the event that, as of the second year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company has not
effectuated a Guarantee Satisfaction, the number of Subject Shares shall be automatically increased
to 50,000 shares without any action required on the part of the Company or the Holder.

     In the event that, as of the third year anniversary of Closing Date, the Company has not
effectuated a Guarantee Satisfaction, the number of Subject Shares shall be automatically increased
to 75,000 shares without any action required on the part of the Company or the Holder.

     Notwithstanding the immediately preceding four paragraphs to the contrary, a failure to timely
effectuate a Guarantee Satisfaction shall be without prejudice to the Initial Holder’s (and/or its
assign’s or successor’s in interest in respect of the Guarantee Agreement) rights with respect to
the Guarantee Agreement, it being understood that adjustments to the Subject Shares relating to the
Company’s failure to effectuate a Guarantee Satisfaction shall be an additional right of the Holder
(and/or such successor or assign).

     The number of Subject Shares are also subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 5
below.

     The term “Common Stock” means the Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of the
Company as constituted on the Effective Date (the “Base Date”). The number of Subject
Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as set forth herein. The shares of Common Stock
deliverable upon such exercise, and as adjusted from time to time, are hereinafter referred to as
“Warrant Stock.” The term “Other Securities” means any other equity or debt
securities that may be issued by the Company in addition thereto or in substitution for the Warrant
Stock. The term “Company” means and includes the corporation named above as well as (i)
any immediate or more remote successor entity resulting from the merger or consolidation of such
entity (or any immediate or more remote successor corporation of such entity) with another entity,
or (ii) any entity to which such entity (or any immediate or more remote successor corporation of
such corporation) has transferred its all or substantially all of its property or assets.

     Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of
indemnification reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and upon surrender and cancellation of this
Warrant, if mutilated, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.
Any such new Warrant executed and delivered shall constitute an additional contractual obligation
on the part of the Company, whether or not this Warrant so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

     The Holder agrees with the Company that this Warrant is issued, and all the rights hereunder
shall be held subject to, all of the conditions, limitations and provisions set forth herein.

     1. Exercise of Warrant.

2

 

          (a) Subject to Section 1(b) below and in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section
1(c) below, this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time
during the period commencing on the date that is three hundred and sixty-six (366) days following
the Effective Date and expiring at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date that is ten years following
the Closing Date (the “Expiration Date”).

          (b) Notwithstanding Section 1(a) above, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to exercise
this Warrant until such time that the Company effectuates a Loan Satisfaction; provided, however,
that if, as of February 1, 2008, the Company has not effectuated a Loan Satisfaction but the
Initial Holder has complied in full with all of its material obligations under the Guarantee
Agreement, this Section 1(b) shall have no further force and effect.

          (c) During the period that this Warrant is exercisable in accordance with Sections 1(a) and
1(b) above, the Holder may exercise this Warrant by presentation and surrender of this Warrant to
the Company at its principal office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together
with the Warrant Exercise Form, attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed and the
Shareholders Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Shareholders
Agreement”), duly executed, accompanied by payment (either in cash or by certified or official
bank check, payable to the order of the Company) of the Exercise Price for the number of shares
specified in such form and instruments of transfer, if appropriate, duly executed by the Holder or
his, her or its duly authorized attorney. If this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the
Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, execute and deliver a new Warrant
evidencing the rights of the Holder thereof to purchase the balance of the shares purchasable
hereunder. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant, together with a duly executed Warrant
Exercise Form , a duly executed Shareholders Agreement and the Exercise Price, at its office, or by
the stock transfer agent of the Company at its office, in proper form for exercise, the Holder
shall, subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, be deemed to be the holder of
record of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the stock
transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such shares of
Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder.

          (d) In the event the Initial Holder commits a Key Default (as defined in the Guarantee
Agreement), this Warrant shall be automatically cancelled, without any action required on the part
of the Company or the Holder, and shall have no further force and effect.

          (e) During the period that this Warrant is exercisable in accordance with Sections 1(a) and
1(b) above and provided that (i) the Company’s Common Stock is publicly traded and (ii) the average
reported weekly trading volume during the four weeks preceding the date of exercise is equal to or
greater than 2,500,000, in lieu of exercising this Warrant by tendering cash pursuant to Section
3(c) above, the Holder of this Warrant may elect to receive,
without the payment by the Holder of any additional consideration, shares equal to the value
of this Warrant (or the portion thereof being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the
principal

3

 

office of the Company together with notice of such election, in which event the Company
shall issue to the holder hereof a number of Shares computed using the following formula:

	 	 	 	 	 
	X =
	 	Y (A - B)	 	 
	 	 

A
	 	 

     Where:

     X = The number of shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this net exercise;

     Y = The number of shares in respect of which the net issue election is made;

     A = The fair market value of one share at the time the net issue election is made; and

     B = The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of the net issuance).

     For purposes of this paragraph 3(e), the “fair market value” of one share of Common Stock as
of a particular date shall mean the closing price (or average of the closing “bid” and “asked”
prices, as the case may be) on the applicable date (i.e. the date of exercise of Warrant) of the
Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. on the applicable market upon which the Common Stock is
traded.

     2. Reservation of Shares. The Company covenants that during the term this Warrant is
exercisable, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient
number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant and,
from time to time, if necessary, will use its reasonable best efforts to amend its Articles of
Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the Warrant.

     3. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares
shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall issue one additional share
of its Common Stock or Other Securities (as applicable) in lieu of each fraction of a share
otherwise called for upon exercise of this Warrant.

     4. Transfer of Warrant.

          (a) Subject to compliance with any applicable federal and state securities laws, the
conditions set forth in Sections 4(b) below and the provisions of Section 7 of this Warrant, this
Warrant may be transferred by the Holder with respect to any or all of the shares purchasable
hereunder. Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer
agent, if any, together with the Assignment Form, attached hereto as Exhibit C duly
executed, the Transferor Representation Letter (as defined below) duly executed, the
Transferee Representation Letter (as defined below) duly executed and funds sufficient to pay
any transfer tax, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name

4

 

of
the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations specified in the Assignment Form
and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so
assigned. Thereafter, this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. This Warrant may be divided or
combined with other Warrants that carry the same rights upon presentation hereof at the office of
the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together with a written notice
specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued and signed by the
Holder hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to issue a Warrant
covering less than 1,000 shares of Common Stock.

          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no transfer of all or any
portion of this Warrant shall be made except for transfers to the Company, unless:

               (x) if such transfer is made at any time prior to the One Year Exercise Date, the Holder and
the proposed transferee each truthfully certify and provide to the Company a written representation
letter (the “Transferor Representation Letter” and the “Transferee Representation
Letter”, respectively) that such transfer is to either:

                     (A) a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” as such term is defined under Rule 144A of the
Securities Act, attached hereto as Exhibit D;

                     (B) a “large institutional accredited investor” as such term is used in the Securities and
Exchange Commission staff’s No-Action Letter dated February 28, 1992 to Squadron, Ellenoff,
Pleasant & Lehrer, attached hereto as Exhibit E; or

                     (C) a person that is (1) an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the
Securities Act (an “Accredited Investor”), (2) as of the Effective Date (as defined in the
Guarantee Agreement) and the date of such transfer, is an executive officer of the Company or a
member of the Company’s management; and (3) participated in assisting the Company structure
the issuance of this Warrant to the (x) Guarantor (as defined in the Guarantee Agreement) and (y)
any other persons receiving warrants in connection with their provision of a guaranty or letter of
credit to secure the Bank of America Loan.

                (y) if such transfer is made at any time following the One Year Exercise Date, the Holder and
the proposed transferee each truthfully certify and provide to the Company the Transferor
Representation Letter and the Transferee Representation Letter, respectively that such transfer is
to an Accredited Investor.

5. Anti-Dilution Provisions.

          5.1 Adjustment for Dividends in Other Securities, Property, Etc. In case at any time
or from time to time after the Base Date the shareholders of the Company shall have received, or on
or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible shareholders, shall
have become entitled to receive without payment therefor: (a) other or additional securities
or property (other than cash) by way of dividend, (b) any cash paid or payable or (c) other or

5

 

additional (or less) securities or property (including cash) by way of stock-split, spin-off,
split-up, reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement, then, and in
each such case, the Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise thereof as provided in Section
1, shall be entitled to receive the amount of securities and property (including cash in the
cases referred to in clauses (b) and (c) above) which such Holder would hold on the date of such
exercise if on the Base Date it had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common
Stock or Other Securities (as applicable) as constituted on the Base Date subscribed for upon such
exercise as provided in Section 1 and had thereafter, during the period from the Base Date
to and including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional (or
less) securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clauses (b) and (c)
above) receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called
for during such period by this Section 5.1 and Sections 5.2 and 5.3 below.

          5.2 Adjustment for Recapitalization. If the Company shall at any time subdivide its
outstanding shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of
the Warrant), or if the Company shall declare a stock dividend or distribute shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) to its shareholders, the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities, as the case may be) subject to this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision shall
be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased, and if the
Company shall at any time combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of
Common Stock or Other Securities subject to this Warrant immediately prior to such combination
shall be proportionately decreased and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased. Any
such adjustments pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be effective at the close of business
on the effective date of such subdivision or combination or if any adjustment is the result of a
stock dividend or distribution then the effective date for such adjustment based thereon shall be
the record date therefor.

          5.3 Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case of any
reorganization of the Company (or any other entity, the securities of which are at the time
receivable on the exercise of this Warrant) after the Base Date or in case after such date the
Company (or any such other entity) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or
convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, then, and in each such case,
the Holder of this Warrant upon the exercise thereof as provided in Section 1 at any time
after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be
entitled to receive, in lieu of the securities and property receivable upon the exercise of this
Warrant prior to such consummation, the securities or property to which such Holder would have been
entitled upon such consummation if such Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior
thereto; in each such case, the terms of this Warrant shall be applicable to the securities or
property receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.

          5.4 No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation
(or the Shareholders Agreement) or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution,
issue or sale of securities, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek
to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all
times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such
action as

6

 

may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder of this
Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, while this Warrant is
outstanding, the Company will take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that
the Company may validly and legally issue or sell fully paid and non-assessable shares of capital
stock upon the exercise of this Warrant.

          5.5 Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of an adjustment in the number of
shares of Warrant Stock or Other Securities receivable on the exercise of this Warrant, the Company
at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant
and prepare a certificate executed by an executive officer of the Company setting forth such
adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company will
forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder.

          5.6 Notices of Record Date, Etc. In case:

          (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or Other Securities at
the time receivable upon the exercise of the Warrant) for the purpose of entitling them to receive
any dividend (other than a cash dividend at the same rate as the rate of the last cash dividend
theretofore paid) or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise
acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right; or

          (b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of
the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or any
conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another corporation; or

          (c) of any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company,

then, and in each such case, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed to the Holder of the
Warrant at the time outstanding a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a
record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the
amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the date on which such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up is to take place, and the time, if any, which is to be fixed, as to which the holders of
record of Common Stock (or such other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of the
Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) for
securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Such notice shall be mailed at least
twenty (20) days prior to the date therein specified and the Warrant may be exercised prior to said
date during the term of the Warrant.

7

 

     6. Legend. Unless the shares of Warrant Stock or Other Securities have been
registered under the Securities Act, upon exercise of any of the Warrants and the issuance of any of the
shares of Warrant Stock or Other Securities, all certificates representing such securities shall
bear on the face thereof substantially the following legend:

“The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and may not be sold
or transferred in the absence of an effective registration statement under
the Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company that such
registration is not required. The securities represented by this
certificate are subject to certain restrictions and agreements contained in,
that certain Warrant Agreement dated ___, 2007, by and between the original
Holder and the Company and, may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
encumbered, pledged or otherwise disposed of except upon compliance with the
provisions of such Warrant Agreement. By the acceptance of the shares of
capital stock evidenced by this certificate, the holder agrees to be bound
by such Warrant Agreement and all amendments thereto. A copy of such
Warrant Agreement has been filed at the office of the Company.

The securities represented by this certificate and the holder of such
securities are subject to the terms and conditions (including, without
limitation, voting agreements and restrictions on transfer) set forth in a
Shareholders Agreement, dated as of ___, 200___, a copy of which may be
obtained from the Company. No transfer of such securities will be made on
the books of the Company unless accompanied by evidence of compliance with
the terms of such agreement.”

     7. Lock-Up Agreement. The Holder hereby agrees that, during the period of duration
(not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) specified by the Company and an underwriter of Common
Stock or other securities of the Company in an agreement in connection with any initial public
offering of the Company’s securities, following the effective date of the registration statement
for a public offering of the Company’s securities filed under the Securities Act, it shall not, to
the extent requested by the Company and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to
sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), grant any option to
purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound)
any securities of the Company held by it at any time during such period, except Common Stock, if
any, included in such registration; provided, that such “lock-up” period applicable to the Holder
shall not be greater than the shortest lock-up period restricting any other shareholder of the
Company executing lock-up agreements in connection with such registration.

     8. No Voting Rights as a Shareholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to
any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company.

8

 

     9. Registration Under the Securities Act of 1933.

          9.1 Piggyback Registration. If at any time during the period commencing on the date
that is six months following the closing date of an initial public offering of the Common Stock and
ending on the Expiration Date, the Company proposes to register any shares of its Common Stock
under the Securities Act on any form for registration thereunder (the “Registration
Statement”) for its own account or the account of shareholders (other than a registration
solely relating to (i) shares of Common Stock underlying a stock option, restricted stock, stock
purchase or compensation or incentive plan or of stock issued or issuable pursuant to any such
plan, or a dividend investment plan; (ii) a registration of securities proposed to be issued in
exchange for securities or assets of, or in connection with a merger or consolidation with, another
corporation or other entity; or (iii) a registration of securities proposed to be issued in
exchange for other securities of the Company (collectively, an “Excluded Registration”)),
it will at such time give prompt written notice to the Holder of its intention to do so (the
“Section 9.1 Notice”). Upon the written request of the Holder given to the Company within
ten (10) days after the giving of any Section 9.1 Notice setting forth the number of shares of
Warrant Stock and/or Other Securities intended to be disposed of by the Holder and the intended
method of disposition thereof, the Company will include or cause to be included in the Registration
Statement the shares of Warrant Stock and/or Other Securities which the Holder has requested to
register, to the extent provided in this Section 9 (a “Piggyback Registration”).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that prior to the Six-Month Post-IPO Exercise Date, the
Company agrees to (other than in an Excluded Registration) (i) register the resale of Common Stock
then held by any other shareholder of the Company or (ii) register the issuance of Common Stock
upon conversion of then outstanding securities, the Holder shall be similarly entitled to exercise
the rights provided by this Section 9.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may, at any
time, withdraw or cease proceeding with any registration pursuant to this Section 9.1 if it shall
at the same time withdraw or cease proceeding with the registration of all of the Common Stock
originally proposed to be registered. The Company shall be obligated to file and cause the
effectiveness of only one (1) Piggyback Registration. The shares of Warrant Stock and/or Other
Securities subject to the piggyback registration rights set forth in the Section 9.1 Notice are
referred to for purposes of this Section 9 as the “Registrable Shares”.

          9.2 Company Covenants. Whenever required under this Section 9 to include Registrable
Shares in a Registration Statement, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

          (i) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become
effective and cause such Registration Statement to remain effective until the earlier of the Holder
having completed the distribution of all its Registrable Shares described in the Registration
Statement or six (6) months from the effective date of the Registration Statement (or such later
date by reason of suspensions the effectiveness as provided hereunder). The Company will also use
its commercially reasonable efforts to, during the period that such
Registration Statement is required to be maintained hereunder, file such post-effective amendments
and supplements thereto as may be required by the Securities Act and the rules and

9

 

regulations
thereunder or otherwise to ensure that the Registration Statement does not contain any untrue
statement of material fact or omit to state a fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not
misleading; provided, however, that if applicable rules under the Securities Act governing the
obligation to file a post-effective amendment permits, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment
that (i) includes any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or (ii)
reflects facts or events representing a material or fundamental change in the information set forth
in the Registration Statement, the Company may incorporate by reference information required to be
included in (i) and (ii) above to the extent such information is contained in periodic reports
filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”) in the Registration Statement.

          (ii) Prepare and file with the Unites States Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement, and the prospectus
used in connection with such Registration Statement, as may be necessary to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
Registration Statement.

          (iii) Furnish to the Holder such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary
prospectus as amended or supplemented from time to time, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as it may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
disposition of Registrable Shares owned by the Holder; provided that, in no event, shall the
Company be required to incur printing expenses in excess of $1,000 in complying with its
obligations under this Section 9.2(iii).

          (iv) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by
such Registration Statement under such other federal or state securities laws of such jurisdictions
as shall be reasonably requested by the Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a
general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is
already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities
Act.

          (v) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations
under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such
offering.

          (vi) Notify the Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be
delivered under the Securities Act, (a) when the Registration Statement or any post-effective
amendment and supplement thereto has become effective; (b) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop
order or the initiation of proceedings for that purpose (in which event the Company shall make use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending effectiveness of
the Registration Statement. at the earliest possible time or prevent
the entry thereof); (c) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the
suspension of the qualification of the Registrable Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the

10

 

initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and (d) of the happening of any event as a result of
which the prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances then
existing.

          (vii) Cause all such Registrable Shares registered hereunder to be listed on each securities
exchange or quotation service on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or
quoted.

          (viii) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares registered pursuant
hereunder and CUSIP number for all such Registrable Shares, in each case not later than the
effective date of such registration.

          (ix) Use commercially reasonable effort to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Shares
are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters,
(a) an opinion, dated as of such date and addressed to the Holder, of the counsel representing the
Company for the purposes of such resale registration, in form and substance as is customarily given
by Company counsel to underwriters, if any, engaged by the Holder and (b) a letter, dated as of
such date and addressed to the Holder, from the independent certified public accountants of the
Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants
to underwriters, if any, engaged by the Holder.

          9.3 Furnish Information. In connection with a registration in which the Holder is
participating, such Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably
requested by the Company or the underwriter. In addition, if requested by the Company or the
representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, the Holder
shall provide, within ten (10) days of such request, such information related to such Holder as may
be required by the Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public
offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the
Securities Act.

          9.4 Expenses of Company Registration. All expenses other than underwriting discounts
and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to
Section 9.1, including, without limitation, all registration, filing and qualification fees,
printers’ and accounting fees and fees, disbursements of counsel for the Company and disbursements
of counsel for the Holder up to $10,000 (the “Registration Expenses”) shall be borne by the
Company.

          9.5 Underwriting Requirements. In connection with any offering involving an
underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under
Section 9.1 to include any of the Holder’s Registrable Shares in such underwriting unless the
Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the
underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and
then only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole and reasonable discretion
will not

11

 

materially jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company, and the Holder enters
into such lock-up agreements as may be reasonably required of other selling shareholders in such
Registration Statement. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Shares, requested
by shareholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by
the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole and reasonable discretion is compatible
with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering
only that number of such securities, including Registrable Shares, which the underwriters determine
in their sole and reasonable discretion will not materially jeopardize the success of the offering
(the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling shareholders according to
the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling shareholder or
in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such selling shareholders). For
purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling shareholder who
is a holder of Registrable Shares and is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired
partners and shareholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners
and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed
to be a single “selling shareholder”, and any pro-rata reduction with respect to such “selling
shareholder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares carrying registration rights owned
by all entities and individuals included in such “selling shareholder”, as defined in this
sentence.

          9.6 Indemnification. In the event that any Registrable Shares are included in a
Registration Statement under this Section 9.

          (i) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will promptly indemnify and hold harmless the
Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for the Holder and each person, if any,
who controls the Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may
become subject under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement,
including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or
supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii)
any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any
rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, and the Company will
pay to the Holder, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 9.6(i) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor
shall the Company be liable in any such case for any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action
to the extent that it arises out of or is based upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and

12

 

in conformity with written information furnished expressly for use in connection with such
registration by the Holder, underwriter or controlling person.

          (ii) To the extent permitted by law, the Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company,
its directors, officers, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any underwriter, any other holder selling securities in
such Registration Statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other holder,
against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the
foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are
based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation
occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Holder
expressly for use in connection with such registration; and the Holder will pay, as incurred, any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to
this Section 9.6(ii), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in
this Section 9.6(ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that, in no event shall any
indemnity under this Section 9.6(ii) exceed 20% of the cash value of the gross proceeds from the
offering received by the Holder.

          (iii) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9.6 of notice of the
commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party shall, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 9.6,
deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying
party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires,
jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel selected by the indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party (whose approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with
all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have
the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying
party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying
party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such
indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure
to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of
any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 9.6, but the
omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any
liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 9.6.

          (iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9.6 is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim,
damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of

13

 

indemnifying such
indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the
indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such
loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

          (v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and
contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in connection with the
underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the
underwriting agreement shall control.

          (vi) The obligations of the Company and the Holder under this Section 9.6 shall survive the
completion of any offering of Registrable Shares in a Registration Statement under this Section 9,
and otherwise.

          9.7. Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view to making available
to the Holder the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”) and any other
rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Holder to sell shares of the
Company’s Common Stock to the public without registration, commencing immediately after the date on
which a registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act becomes effective, the
Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

          (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in
Rule 144;

          (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the
Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

          (iii) furnish to the Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Shares, forthwith upon
request (i) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other
reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (ii) such other information as may be reasonably
requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of
any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.

          9.8. Permitted Transferees. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable
Shares granted to the Holder by the Company under this Section 9 may be assigned in full by a
Holder in connection with a transfer by the Holder of its Registrable Shares if: (a) the
Holder gives prior written notice to the Company; (b) such transferee agrees to comply with
and be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement; (c) such transfer is otherwise in
compliance with this Agreement and (d) such transfer is otherwise effected in accordance with

14

 

applicable securities laws. Except as specifically permitted by this Section 9.8, the rights of a
Holder with respect to Registrable Shares as set out herein shall not be transferable to any other
person, and any attempted transfer shall cause all rights of the Holder therein to be forfeited.

          9.9 Termination of Registration Rights. The Holder shall no longer be entitled to
exercise any registration rights provided for in Section 9.1 after such time at which all
Registrable Shares held by the Holder can be sold in any three-month period without registration in
compliance with Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act.

     10. Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed
given when telegraphed, delivered personally or within two (2) days after mailing when mailed by
certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to the Company at its principal office, or
to the Holder at the address set forth on the record books of the Company or at such other address
of which the Company or the Holder has been advised by notice hereunder. A copy of any notices
provided to the Company hereunder shall be concurrently provided to the Company’s legal counsel
addressed to Hunton & Williams, LLP, Attn: David E. Wells, Esq., 1111 Brickell Avenue, Suite 2500,
Miami, Florida 33131.

     11. Applicable Law. The Warrant is issued under and shall for all purposes be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to the
choice of law rules thereof.

     12. Modification of the Terms. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed,
waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the Holder and the
Company.

     13. Venue. The parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts
of State of Florida located in Broward County and federal courts of the United States for the
Southern District of Florida in respect of the interpretation and of the provisions of this
Agreement and in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby.

     14 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE
RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, OR RELATED TO, THE SUBJECT MATTER
OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY THE HOLDER AND
THE COMPANY.

     15. Payment of Certain Taxes and Charges. The Company shall not be required to issue
or deliver any certificate for shares of Common Stock or other securities upon the exercise of this
Warrant or to register any transfer of this Warrant until any applicable transfer tax and any other
taxes or governmental charges that the Company may be required by law to collect in
respect of such exercise or transfer shall have been paid, such tax being payable by Holder at the
time of surrender for the exercise or transfer.

NEITHER THIS WARRANT NOR THE COMMON STOCK WHICH MAY BE ACQUIRED UPON EXERCISE HEREOF HAS BEEN
REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS,
AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR SALE, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE
ABSENCE OF AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO UNDER THE ACT AND ANY
APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR UNLESS THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL,

September 12, 2007 (the “Effective Date”)

BIOHEART, INC.

(Incorporated under the laws of the State of Florida)

Warrant for the Purchase of Shares of Common Stock

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, BIOHEART, INC., a Florida corporation (the “Company”), hereby
certifies that Samuel S. Ahn, M.D. (the “Initial Holder”), or his/her/its assigns (the
“Holder”) is entitled, subject to the provisions of this Warrant, to purchase from the
Company, up to 39,450 (subject to adjustment in accordance with the four immediately succeeding
paragraphs and Section 5 below) (the “Subject Shares”) fully paid and non-assessable shares
of Common Stock at a price of $4.75 per share, subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 5
below (the “Exercise Price”) . This Warrant is being issued in connection with
that certain Loan Guarantee, Payment and Security Agreement by and between the Company and the
Initial Holder, dated as of September 12, 2007 (the “Guarantee Agreement”).

     In the event that, as of September 30, 2007, the Company has not satisfied and/or discharged
all of its payment obligations, including, without limitation, all payment obligations under the
agreements, documents and instruments entered into in connection therewith (a “Loan
Satisfaction”) under that certain $5,000,000 Loan borrowed by the Company from Bank of America,
N.A. (the “Bank of America Loan”), the number of Subject Shares shall be automatically
increased to 45,000 shares without any action required on the part of the Company or the Holder.

     In the event that, as of the first year anniversary of the closing of the Bank of America Loan
(the “Closing Date”), the Company has not satisfied and/or discharged all of its material
payment obligations to the Initial Holder under the Guarantee Agreement (a “Guarantee
Satisfaction”), the number of Subject Shares shall be automatically increased to 56,250 shares
without any action required on the part of the Company or the Holder.

1

 

     In the event that, as of the second year anniversary of the Closing Date, the Company has not
effectuated a Guarantee Satisfaction, the number of Subject Shares shall be automatically increased
to 75,000 shares without any action required on the part of the Company or the Holder.

     In the event that, as of the third year anniversary of Closing Date, the Company has not
effectuated a Guarantee Satisfaction, the number of Subject Shares shall be automatically increased
to 112,500 shares without any action required on the part of the Company or the Holder.

     Notwithstanding the immediately preceding four paragraphs to the contrary, a failure to timely
effectuate a Guarantee Satisfaction shall be without prejudice to the Initial Holder’s (and/or its
assign’s or successor’s in interest in respect of the Guarantee Agreement) rights with respect to
the Guarantee Agreement, it being understood that adjustments to the Subject Shares relating to the
Company’s failure to effectuate a Guarantee Satisfaction shall be an additional right of the Holder
(and/or such successor or assign).

     The number of Subject Shares are also subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 5
below.

     The term “Common Stock” means the Common Stock, par value $.001 per share, of the
Company as constituted on the Effective Date (the “Base Date”). The number of Subject
Shares shall be adjusted from time to time as set forth herein. The shares of Common Stock
deliverable upon such exercise, and as adjusted from time to time, are hereinafter referred to as
“Warrant Stock.” The term “Other Securities” means any other equity or debt
securities that may be issued by the Company in addition thereto or in substitution for the Warrant
Stock. The term “Company” means and includes the corporation named above as well as (i)
any immediate or more remote successor entity resulting from the merger or consolidation of such
entity (or any immediate or more remote successor corporation of such entity) with another entity,
or (ii) any entity to which such entity (or any immediate or more remote successor corporation of
such corporation) has transferred its all or substantially all of its property or assets.

     Upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft,
destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and (in the case of loss, theft or destruction) of
indemnification reasonably satisfactory to the Company, and upon surrender and cancellation of this
Warrant, if mutilated, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date.
Any such new Warrant executed and delivered shall constitute an additional contractual obligation
on the part of the Company, whether or not this Warrant so lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.

     The Holder agrees with the Company that this Warrant is issued, and all the rights hereunder
shall be held subject to, all of the conditions, limitations and provisions set forth herein.

     1. Exercise of Warrant.

2

 

          (a) Subject to Section 1(b) below and in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section
1(c) below, this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time, or from time to time
during the period commencing on the date that is three hundred and sixty-six (366) days following
the Effective Date and expiring at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the date that is ten years following
the Closing Date (the “Expiration Date”).

          (b) Notwithstanding Section 1(a) above, in no event shall the Holder be entitled to exercise
this Warrant until such time that the Company effectuates a Loan Satisfaction; provided, however,
that if, as of February 1, 2008, the Company has not effectuated a Loan Satisfaction but the
Initial Holder has complied in full with all of its material obligations under the Guarantee
Agreement, this Section 1(b) shall have no further force and effect.

          (c) During the period that this Warrant is exercisable in accordance with Sections 1(a) and
1(b) above, the Holder may exercise this Warrant by presentation and surrender of this Warrant to
the Company at its principal office, or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together
with the Warrant Exercise Form, attached hereto as Exhibit A, duly executed and the
Shareholders Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Shareholders
Agreement”), duly executed, accompanied by payment (either in cash or by certified or official
bank check, payable to the order of the Company) of the Exercise Price for the number of shares
specified in such form and instruments of transfer, if appropriate, duly executed by the Holder or
his, her or its duly authorized attorney. If this Warrant should be exercised in part only, the
Company shall, upon surrender of this Warrant for cancellation, execute and deliver a new Warrant
evidencing the rights of the Holder thereof to purchase the balance of the shares purchasable
hereunder. Upon receipt by the Company of this Warrant, together with a duly executed Warrant
Exercise Form , a duly executed Shareholders Agreement and the Exercise Price, at its office, or by
the stock transfer agent of the Company at its office, in proper form for exercise, the Holder
shall, subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws, be deemed to be the holder of
record of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise, notwithstanding that the stock
transfer books of the Company shall then be closed or that certificates representing such shares of
Common Stock shall not then be actually delivered to the Holder.

          (d) In the event the Initial Holder commits a Key Default (as defined in the Guarantee
Agreement), this Warrant shall be automatically cancelled, without any action required on the part
of the Company or the Holder, and shall have no further force and effect.

          (e) During the period that this Warrant is exercisable in accordance with Sections 1(a) and
1(b) above and provided that (i) the Company’s Common Stock is publicly traded and (ii) the average
reported weekly trading volume during the four weeks preceding the date of exercise is equal to or
greater than 2,500,000, in lieu of exercising this Warrant by tendering cash pursuant to Section
3(c) above, the Holder of this Warrant may elect to receive, without the payment by the Holder of
any additional consideration, shares equal to the value of this Warrant (or the portion thereof
being canceled) by surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company together with
notice of such election, in which event the Company shall issue to the holder hereof a number of
Shares computed using the following formula:

3

 

	 	 	 	 	 
	X =
	 	Y (A - B)	 	 
	 	 

A
	 	 

     Where:

     X = The number of shares to be issued to the Holder pursuant to this net exercise;

     Y = The number of shares in respect of which the net issue election is made;

     A = The fair market value of one share at the time the net issue election is made; and

     B = The Exercise Price (as adjusted to the date of the net issuance).

     For purposes of this paragraph 3(e), the “fair market value” of one share of Common Stock as
of a particular date shall mean the closing price (or average of the closing “bid” and “asked”
prices, as the case may be) on the applicable date (i.e. the date of exercise of Warrant) of the
Common Stock as reported by Bloomberg L.P. on the applicable market upon which the Common Stock is
traded.

     2. Reservation of Shares. The Company covenants that during the term this Warrant is
exercisable, the Company will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient
number of shares to provide for the issuance of Common Stock upon the exercise of this Warrant and,
from time to time, if necessary, will use its reasonable best efforts to amend its Articles of
Incorporation to provide sufficient reserves of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of
the Warrant.

     3. Fractional Shares. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares
shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant, but the Company shall issue one additional share
of its Common Stock or Other Securities (as applicable) in lieu of each fraction of a share
otherwise called for upon exercise of this Warrant.

     4. Transfer of Warrant.

          (a) Subject to compliance with any applicable federal and state securities laws, the
conditions set forth in Sections 4(b) below and the provisions of Section 7 of this Warrant, this
Warrant may be transferred by the Holder with respect to any or all of the shares purchasable
hereunder. Upon surrender of this Warrant to the Company or at the office of its stock transfer
agent, if any, together with the Assignment Form, attached hereto as Exhibit C duly
executed, the Transferor Representation Letter (as defined below) duly executed, the Transferee
Representation Letter (as defined below) duly executed and funds sufficient to pay any transfer
tax, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or
assignees and in the denomination or denominations specified in the
Assignment Form and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this
Warrant not so assigned. Thereafter, this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. This Warrant

4

 

may be
divided or combined with other Warrants that carry the same rights upon presentation hereof at the
office of the Company or at the office of its stock transfer agent, if any, together with a written
notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued and signed by
the Holder hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to issue a
Warrant covering less than 1,000 shares of Common Stock.

          (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, no transfer of all or any
portion of this Warrant shall be made except for transfers to the Company, unless:

               (x) if such transfer is made at any time prior to the One Year Exercise Date, the Holder and
the proposed transferee each truthfully certify and provide to the Company a written representation
letter (the “Transferor Representation Letter” and the “Transferee Representation
Letter”, respectively) that such transfer is to either:

                    (A) a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” as such term is defined under Rule 144A of the
Securities Act, attached hereto as Exhibit D;

                    (B) a “large institutional accredited investor” as such term is used in the Securities and
Exchange Commission staff’s No-Action Letter dated February 28, 1992 to Squadron, Ellenoff,
Pleasant & Lehrer, attached hereto as Exhibit E; or

                    (C) a person that is (1) an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Regulation D under the
Securities Act (an “Accredited Investor”), (2) as of the Effective Date (as defined in the
Guarantee Agreement) and the date of such transfer, is an executive officer of the Company or a
member of the Company’s management; and (3) participated in assisting the Company structure
the issuance of this Warrant to the (x) Guarantor (as defined in the Guarantee Agreement) and (y)
any other persons receiving warrants in connection with their provision of a guaranty or letter of
credit to secure the Bank of America Loan.

               (y) if such transfer is made at any time following the One Year Exercise Date, the Holder and
the proposed transferee each truthfully certify and provide to the Company the Transferor
Representation Letter and the Transferee Representation Letter, respectively that such transfer is
to an Accredited Investor.

     5. Anti-Dilution Provisions.

          5.1 Adjustment for Dividends in Other Securities, Property, Etc. In case at any time
or from time to time after the Base Date the shareholders of the Company shall have received, or on
or after the record date fixed for the determination of eligible shareholders, shall have become
entitled to receive without payment therefor: (a) other or additional securities or property (other
than cash) by way of dividend, (b) any cash paid or payable or (c) other or additional (or less)
securities or property (including cash) by way of stock-split, spin-off, split-up,
reclassification, combination of shares or similar corporate rearrangement, then, and in each such
case, the Holder of this Warrant, upon the exercise thereof as provided in Section 1, shall
be
entitled to receive the amount of securities and property (including cash in the cases
referred to

5

 

in clauses (b) and (c) above) which such Holder would hold on the date of such exercise
if on the Base Date it had been the holder of record of the number of shares of Common Stock or
Other Securities (as applicable) as constituted on the Base Date subscribed for upon such exercise
as provided in Section 1 and had thereafter, during the period from the Base Date to and
including the date of such exercise, retained such shares and/or all other additional (or less)
securities and property (including cash in the cases referred to in clauses (b) and (c) above)
receivable by it as aforesaid during such period, giving effect to all adjustments called for
during such period by this Section 5.1 and Sections 5.2 and 5.3 below.

          5.2 Adjustment for Recapitalization. If the Company shall at any time subdivide its
outstanding shares of Common Stock (or Other Securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of
the Warrant), or if the Company shall declare a stock dividend or distribute shares of Common Stock
(or Other Securities) to its shareholders, the number of shares of Common Stock (or Other
Securities, as the case may be) subject to this Warrant immediately prior to such subdivision shall
be proportionately increased and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased, and if the
Company shall at any time combine the outstanding shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of
Common Stock or Other Securities subject to this Warrant immediately prior to such combination
shall be proportionately decreased and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased. Any
such adjustments pursuant to this Section 5.2 shall be effective at the close of business
on the effective date of such subdivision or combination or if any adjustment is the result of a
stock dividend or distribution then the effective date for such adjustment based thereon shall be
the record date therefor.

          5.3 Adjustment for Reorganization, Consolidation, Merger, Etc. In case of any
reorganization of the Company (or any other entity, the securities of which are at the time
receivable on the exercise of this Warrant) after the Base Date or in case after such date the
Company (or any such other entity) shall consolidate with or merge into another corporation or
convey all or substantially all of its assets to another corporation, then, and in each such case,
the Holder of this Warrant upon the exercise thereof as provided in Section 1 at any time
after the consummation of such reorganization, consolidation, merger or conveyance, shall be
entitled to receive, in lieu of the securities and property receivable upon the exercise of this
Warrant prior to such consummation, the securities or property to which such Holder would have been
entitled upon such consummation if such Holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior
thereto; in each such case, the terms of this Warrant shall be applicable to the securities or
property receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant after such consummation.

          5.4 No Impairment. The Company will not, by amendment of its Articles of Incorporation
(or the Shareholders Agreement) or through reorganization, consolidation, merger, dissolution,
issue or sale of securities, sale of assets or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid
the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good
faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such action as may be
necessary or appropriate in order to protect the rights of the Holder of this Warrant against
impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, while this Warrant is outstanding,
the Company will take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company
may validly and legally issue or sell fully paid and non-assessable shares of capital stock upon
the exercise of this Warrant.

6

 

          5.5 Certificate as to Adjustments. In each case of an adjustment in the number of
shares of Warrant Stock or Other Securities receivable on the exercise of this Warrant, the Company
at its expense will promptly compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant
and prepare a certificate executed by an executive officer of the Company setting forth such
adjustment and showing in detail the facts upon which such adjustment is based. The Company will
forthwith mail a copy of each such certificate to the Holder.

          5.6 Notices of Record Date, Etc. In case:

          (a) the Company shall take a record of the holders of its Common Stock (or Other Securities at
the time receivable upon the exercise of the Warrant) for the purpose of entitling them to receive
any dividend (other than a cash dividend at the same rate as the rate of the last cash dividend
theretofore paid) or other distribution, or any right to subscribe for, purchase or otherwise
acquire any shares of stock of any class or any other securities, or to receive any other right; or

          (b) of any capital reorganization of the Company, any reclassification of the capital stock of
the Company, any consolidation or merger of the Company with or into another corporation, or any
conveyance of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to another corporation; or

          (c) of any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company,

then, and in each such case, the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed to the Holder of the
Warrant at the time outstanding a notice specifying, as the case may be, (i) the date on which a
record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution or right, and stating the
amount and character of such dividend, distribution or right, or (ii) the date on which such
reorganization, reclassification, consolidation, merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or
winding up is to take place, and the time, if any, which is to be fixed, as to which the holders of
record of Common Stock (or such other securities at the time receivable upon the exercise of the
Warrant) shall be entitled to exchange their shares of Common Stock (or such other securities) for
securities or other property deliverable upon such reorganization, reclassification, consolidation,
merger, conveyance, dissolution, liquidation or winding up. Such notice shall be mailed at least
twenty (20) days prior to the date therein specified and the Warrant may be exercised prior to said
date during the term of the Warrant.

     6. Legend. Unless the shares of Warrant Stock or Other Securities have been registered
under the Securities Act, upon exercise of any of the Warrants and the issuance of any of the
shares of Warrant Stock or Other Securities, all certificates representing such securities shall
bear on the face thereof substantially the following legend:

“The securities represented by this certificate have not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) and may not

7

 

be sold
or transferred in the absence of an effective registration
statement under the Act or an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company
that such registration is not required. The securities represented by this
certificate are subject to certain restrictions and agreements contained in,
that certain Warrant Agreement dated           , 2007, by and between the original
Holder and the Company and, may not be sold, assigned, transferred,
encumbered, pledged or otherwise disposed of except upon compliance with the
provisions of such Warrant Agreement. By the acceptance of the shares of
capital stock evidenced by this certificate, the holder agrees to be bound
by such Warrant Agreement and all amendments thereto. A copy of such
Warrant Agreement has been filed at the office of the Company.

The securities represented by this certificate and the holder of such
securities are subject to the terms and conditions (including, without
limitation, voting agreements and restrictions on transfer) set forth in a
Shareholders Agreement, dated as of           , 200           , a copy of which may be
obtained from the Company. No transfer of such securities will be made on
the books of the Company unless accompanied by evidence of compliance with
the terms of such agreement.”

     7. Lock-Up Agreement. The Holder hereby agrees that, during the period of duration
(not to exceed one hundred eighty (180) days) specified by the Company and an underwriter of Common
Stock or other securities of the Company in an agreement in connection with any initial public
offering of the Company’s securities, following the effective date of the registration statement
for a public offering of the Company’s securities filed under the Securities Act, it shall not, to
the extent requested by the Company and such underwriter, directly or indirectly sell, offer to
sell, contract to sell (including, without limitation, any short sale), grant any option to
purchase or otherwise transfer or dispose of (other than to donees who agree to be similarly bound)
any securities of the Company held by it at any time during such period, except Common Stock, if
any, included in such registration; provided, that such “lock-up” period applicable to the Holder
shall not be greater than the shortest lock-up period restricting any other shareholder of the
Company executing lock-up agreements in connection with such registration.

     8. No Voting Rights as a Shareholder. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any
voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company.

     9. Registration Under the Securities Act of 1933.

     9.1 Piggyback Registration. If at any time during the period commencing on the date
that is six months following the closing date of an initial public offering of the Common Stock and
ending on the Expiration Date, the Company proposes to register any shares of its Common Stock
under the Securities Act on any form for registration thereunder (the “Registration
Statement”) for its own account or the account of shareholders (other than a

8

 

registration
solely relating to (i) shares of Common Stock underlying a stock option, restricted stock, stock
purchase or compensation or incentive plan or of stock issued or issuable pursuant to
any such plan, or a dividend investment plan; (ii) a registration of securities proposed to be
issued in exchange for securities or assets of, or in connection with a merger or consolidation
with, another corporation or other entity; or (iii) a registration of securities proposed to be
issued in exchange for other securities of the Company (collectively, an “Excluded
Registration”)), it will at such time give prompt written notice to the Holder of its intention
to do so (the “Section 9.1 Notice”). Upon the written request of the Holder given to the
Company within ten (10) days after the giving of any Section 9.1 Notice setting forth the number of
shares of Warrant Stock and/or Other Securities intended to be disposed of by the Holder and the
intended method of disposition thereof, the Company will include or cause to be included in the
Registration Statement the shares of Warrant Stock and/or Other Securities which the Holder has
requested to register, to the extent provided in this Section 9 (a “Piggyback
Registration”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that prior to the Six-Month
Post-IPO Exercise Date, the Company agrees to (other than in an Excluded Registration) (i) register
the resale of Common Stock then held by any other shareholder of the Company or (ii) register the
issuance of Common Stock upon conversion of then outstanding securities, the Holder shall be
similarly entitled to exercise the rights provided by this Section 9.1. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company may, at any time, withdraw or cease proceeding with any registration
pursuant to this Section 9.1 if it shall at the same time withdraw or cease proceeding with the
registration of all of the Common Stock originally proposed to be registered. The Company shall be
obligated to file and cause the effectiveness of only one (1) Piggyback Registration. The shares
of Warrant Stock and/or Other Securities subject to the piggyback registration rights set forth in
the Section 9.1 Notice are referred to for purposes of this Section 9 as the “Registrable
Shares”.

          9.2 Company Covenants. Whenever required under this Section 9 to include Registrable
Shares in a Registration Statement, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:

          (i) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become
effective and cause such Registration Statement to remain effective until the earlier of the Holder
having completed the distribution of all its Registrable Shares described in the Registration
Statement or six (6) months from the effective date of the Registration Statement (or such later
date by reason of suspensions the effectiveness as provided hereunder). The Company will also use
its commercially reasonable efforts to, during the period that such Registration Statement is
required to be maintained hereunder, file such post-effective amendments and supplements thereto as
may be required by the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder or otherwise to
ensure that the Registration Statement does not contain any untrue statement of material fact or
omit to state a fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements contained
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading; provided,
however, that if applicable rules under the Securities Act governing the obligation to file a
post-effective amendment permits, in lieu of filing a post-effective amendment that (i) includes
any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or (ii) reflects facts or events
representing a material or fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement, the Company may incorporate by reference

9

 

information required to be included in (i) and
(ii) above to the extent such information is contained in periodic reports filed pursuant to
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)
in the Registration Statement.

          (ii) Prepare and file with the Unites States Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“SEC”) such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement, and the prospectus
used in connection with such Registration Statement, as may be necessary to comply with the
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
Registration Statement.

          (iii) Furnish to the Holder such numbers of copies of a prospectus, including a preliminary
prospectus as amended or supplemented from time to time, in conformity with the requirements of the
Securities Act, and such other documents as it may reasonably request in order to facilitate the
disposition of Registrable Shares owned by the Holder; provided that, in no event, shall the
Company be required to incur printing expenses in excess of $1,000 in complying with its
obligations under this Section 9.2(iii).

          (iv) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by
such Registration Statement under such other federal or state securities laws of such jurisdictions
as shall be reasonably requested by the Holder; provided, however, that the Company shall not be
required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a
general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions, unless the Company is
already subject to service in such jurisdiction and except as may be required by the Securities
Act.

          (v) In the event of any underwritten public offering, enter into and perform its obligations
under an underwriting agreement, in usual and customary form, with the managing underwriter of such
offering.

          (vi) Notify the Holder, at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be
delivered under the Securities Act, (a) when the Registration Statement or any post-effective
amendment and supplement thereto has become effective; (b) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop
order or the initiation of proceedings for that purpose (in which event the Company shall make use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending effectiveness of
the Registration Statement. at the earliest possible time or prevent the entry thereof); (c) of the
receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of
the Registrable Shares for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such
purpose; and (d) of the happening of any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such
Registration Statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading in the light of the circumstances then existing.

          (vii) Cause all such Registrable Shares registered hereunder to be listed on each securities
exchange or quotation service on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or
quoted.

10

 

          (viii) Provide a transfer agent and registrar for all Registrable Shares registered pursuant
hereunder and CUSIP number for all such Registrable Shares, in each case not later than the
effective date of such registration.

          (ix) Use commercially reasonable effort to furnish, on the date that such Registrable Shares
are delivered to the underwriters for sale, if such securities are being sold through underwriters,
(a) an opinion, dated as of such date and addressed to the Holder, of the counsel representing the
Company for the purposes of such resale registration, in form and substance as is customarily given
by Company counsel to underwriters, if any, engaged by the Holder and (b) a letter, dated as of
such date and addressed to the Holder, from the independent certified public accountants of the
Company, in form and substance as is customarily given by independent certified public accountants
to underwriters, if any, engaged by the Holder.

          9.3 Furnish Information. In connection with a registration in which the Holder is
participating, such Holder agrees to execute and deliver such other agreements as may be reasonably
requested by the Company or the underwriter. In addition, if requested by the Company or the
representative of the underwriters of Common Stock (or other securities) of the Company, the Holder
shall provide, within ten (10) days of such request, such information related to such Holder as may
be required by the Company or such representative in connection with the completion of any public
offering of the Company’s securities pursuant to a registration statement filed under the
Securities Act.

          9.4 Expenses of Company Registration. All expenses other than underwriting discounts
and commissions incurred in connection with registrations, filings or qualifications pursuant to
Section 9.1, including, without limitation, all registration, filing and qualification fees,
printers’ and accounting fees and fees, disbursements of counsel for the Company and disbursements
of counsel for the Holder up to $10,000 (the “Registration Expenses”) shall be borne by the
Company.

          9.5 Underwriting Requirements. In connection with any offering involving an
underwriting of shares of the Company’s capital stock, the Company shall not be required under
Section 9.1 to include any of the Holder’s Registrable Shares in such underwriting unless the
Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and the
underwriters selected by it (or by other persons entitled to select the underwriters), and then
only in such quantity as the underwriters determine in their sole and reasonable discretion will
not materially jeopardize the success of the offering by the Company, and the Holder enters into
such lock-up agreements as may be reasonably required of other selling shareholders in such
Registration Statement. If the total amount of securities, including Registrable Shares, requested
by shareholders to be included in such offering exceeds the amount of securities sold other than by
the Company that the underwriters determine in their sole and reasonable discretion is compatible
with the success of the offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the offering
only that number of such securities, including Registrable Shares, which the underwriters determine
in their sole and reasonable discretion will not materially jeopardize the success of the offering
(the securities so included to be apportioned pro rata among the selling shareholders according to
the total amount of securities entitled to be included therein owned by each selling shareholder or
in such other proportions as shall mutually be agreed to by such

11

 

selling shareholders). For
purposes of the preceding parenthetical concerning apportionment, for any selling shareholder who
is a holder of Registrable Shares and is a partnership or corporation, the partners, retired
partners and shareholders of such holder, or the estates and family members of any such partners
and retired partners and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing persons shall be deemed
to be a single “selling shareholder”, and any pro-rata reduction with
respect to such “selling shareholder” shall be based upon the aggregate amount of shares
carrying registration rights owned by all entities and individuals included in such “selling
shareholder”, as defined in this sentence.

          9.6 Indemnification. In the event that any Registrable Shares are included in a
Registration Statement under this Section 9.

          (i) To the extent permitted by law, the Company will promptly indemnify and hold harmless the
Holder, any underwriter (as defined in the Securities Act) for the Holder and each person, if any,
who controls the Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange
Act, against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which they may
become subject under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any of the
following statements, omissions or violations (collectively a “Violation”): (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in such Registration Statement,
including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or
supplements thereto, (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii)
any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any
rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, and the Company will
pay to the Holder, underwriter or controlling person, as incurred, any legal or other expenses
reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 9.6(i) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company (which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), nor shall the Company be liable in any such case for
any such loss, claim, damage, liability, or action to the extent that it arises out of or is based
upon a Violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
expressly for use in connection with such registration by the Holder, underwriter or controlling
person.

          (ii) To the extent permitted by law, the Holder will indemnify and hold harmless the Company,
its directors, officers, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of
the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, any underwriter, any other holder selling securities in
such Registration Statement and any controlling person of any such underwriter or other holder,
against any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (joint or several) to which any of the
foregoing persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, or the Exchange Act, insofar as
such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) arise out of or are
based upon any Violation, in each case to the extent (and only to the extent) that such Violation
occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Holder
expressly for use in connection with such registration; and the Holder

12

 

will pay, as incurred, any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any person intended to be indemnified pursuant to
this Section 9.6(ii), in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability, or action; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in
this Section 9.6(ii) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Holder, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, further, that, in no event shall any
indemnity under this Section 9.6(ii) exceed 20% of the cash value of the gross proceeds from the
offering received by the Holder.

          (iii) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 9.6 of notice of the
commencement of any action (including any governmental action), such indemnified party shall, if a
claim in respect thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 9.6,
deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof and the indemnifying
party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the extent the indemnifying party so desires,
jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof with
counsel selected by the indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party (whose approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided, however, that an indemnified party (together with
all other indemnified parties which may be represented without conflict by one counsel) shall have
the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be paid by the indemnifying
party, if representation of such indemnified party by the counsel retained by the indemnifying
party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between such
indemnified party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure
to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the commencement of
any such action, if prejudicial to its ability to defend such action, shall relieve such
indemnifying party of any liability to the indemnified party under this Section 9.6, but the
omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not relieve it of any
liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 9.6.

          (iv) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9.6 is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified party with respect to any loss, liability, claim,
damage, or expense referred to therein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party hereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified
party as a result of such loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the
indemnified party on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such
loss, liability, claim, damage, or expense as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.
The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the indemnified party shall be determined by
reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information, and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

          (v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the provisions on indemnification and
contribution contained in the underwriting agreement entered into in

13

 

connection with the
underwritten public offering are in conflict with the foregoing provisions, the provisions in the
underwriting agreement shall control.

          (vi) The obligations of the Company and the Holder under this Section 9.6 shall survive the
completion of any offering of Registrable Shares in a Registration Statement under this Section 9,
and otherwise.

          9.7. Reports Under Securities Exchange Act of 1934. With a view to making
available to the Holder the benefits of Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”)
and any other rule or regulation of the SEC that may at any time permit the Holder to sell shares
of the Company’s Common Stock to the public without registration, commencing immediately after the
date on which a registration statement filed by the Company under the Securities Act becomes
effective, the Company agrees to use its best efforts to:

          (i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in
Rule 144;

          (ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the
Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

          (iii) furnish to the Holder, so long as the Holder owns any Registrable Shares, forthwith upon
request (i) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company and such other
reports and documents so filed by the Company, and (ii) such other information as may be reasonably
requested in availing any Holder of any rule or regulation of the SEC which permits the selling of
any such securities without registration or pursuant to such form.

          9.8. Permitted Transferees. The rights to cause the Company to register Registrable
Shares granted to the Holder by the Company under this Section 9 may be assigned in full by a
Holder in connection with a transfer by the Holder of its Registrable Shares if: (a) the Holder
gives prior written notice to the Company; (b) such transferee agrees to comply with and be bound
by the terms and provisions of this Agreement; (c) such transfer is otherwise in compliance with
this Agreement and (d) such transfer is otherwise effected in accordance with applicable securities
laws. Except as specifically permitted by this Section 9.8, the rights of a Holder with respect to
Registrable Shares as set out herein shall not be transferable to any other person, and any
attempted transfer shall cause all rights of the Holder therein to be forfeited.

          9.9 Termination of Registration Rights. The Holder shall no longer be entitled to
exercise any registration rights provided for in Section 9.1 after such time at which all
Registrable Shares held by the Holder can be sold in any three-month period without registration in
compliance with Rule 144(k) of the Securities Act.

     10. Notices. All notices required hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed
given when telegraphed, delivered personally or within two (2) days after mailing when mailed by
certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to the Company at its principal office, or
to the Holder at the address set forth on the record books of the Company or at such other address
of which the Company or the Holder has been advised by notice hereunder. A copy of

14

 

any notices
provided to the Company hereunder shall be concurrently provided to the Company’s legal counsel
addressed to Hunton & Williams, LLP, Attn: David E. Wells, Esq., 1111 Brickell Avenue, Suite 2500,
Miami, Florida 33131.

     11. Applicable Law. The Warrant is issued under and shall for all purposes be governed
by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to the
choice of law rules thereof.

     12. Modification of the Terms. This Warrant and any term hereof may be changed,
waived, discharged or terminated only by an instrument in writing signed by the Holder and the
Company.

     13. Venue. The parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts
of State of Florida located in Broward County and federal courts of the United States for the
Southern District of Florida in respect of the interpretation and of the provisions of this
Agreement and in respect of the transactions contemplated hereby.

     14 Waiver of Jury Trial. THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE
RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON, OR RELATED TO, THE SUBJECT MATTER
OF THIS AGREEMENT. THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY THE HOLDER AND
THE COMPANY.

     15. Payment of Certain Taxes and Charges. The Company shall not be required to issue
or deliver any certificate for shares of Common Stock or other securities upon the exercise of this
Warrant or to register any transfer of this Warrant until any applicable transfer tax and any other
taxes or governmental charges that the Company may be required by law to collect in respect of such
exercise or transfer shall have been paid, such tax being payable by Holder at the time of
surrender for the exercise or transfer.

     16. Register. The Company or its stock transfer agent, if any, will maintain a
register containing the name and address of the Holder of this Warrant and of the holders of other
warrants of like tenor issued simultaneously hereunder. Any Holder may change its, his or her

ARTICLE II

RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERS OF STOCK

     Section 2.1 General Provisions on Transfers

          (a) Prohibition on Transfers Generally. The Stockholder shall not at any time,
directly or indirectly, sell, assign, gift, pledge, encumber or otherwise transfer any shares of
Common Stock or any interest in or with respect to such shares (any such transaction, whether or
not for consideration, or voluntary or involuntary, being referred to hereinafter as a
“Transfer” and all Persons to whom a Transfer is made, regardless of the method of
Transfer, shall be referred to collectively as “Transferees” and individually as a
“Transferee”), unless such Transfer (A) is permitted under and made in accordance with
Sections 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6 hereof, or (B) is a Transfer to (i) Bioheart following Bioheart’s
agreement to accept such Transfer, (ii) to HJL following HJL’s agreement to accept such Transfer,
or (iii) to any other Person if in the case of this clause (iii) the proposed Transfer is
expressly permitted by HJL in his discretion in writing (any such permitted transfer under this
clause B is a “Section 2.1 Transfer”).

          (b) Recordation. Bioheart (or its transfer agent, if any) shall not be required to
record upon its official stock books or records any Transfer of shares of Common Stock held or
owned by the Stockholder or any other Person to any other Person or purported Transferee except
Transfers in accordance with this Agreement.

          (c) Obligations of Transferees. No Transfer of shares of Common Stock by the
Stockholder shall be permitted or effective unless the Transferee shall have executed an
appropriate agreement and documents in form and substance satisfactory to Bioheart in its
reasonable judgment confirming (i) that the Transferee takes such shares subject to all the terms
and conditions of this Agreement and the Transferee agrees to be a party to this Agreement as a
“Stockholder” hereunder and to comply with the obligations of a “Stockholder” under this Agreement
and (ii) the transferee’s investment representations to Bioheart and related matters providing
reasonable assurances that the transfer does not violate securities laws or this Agreement; except
that the requirements of this paragraph (c) shall not apply to acquisitions of Common Stock by the
Company or HJL and may be waived in whole or in part at the election of HJL in connection with
Transfers under Sections 2.5 or 2.6 or a Transfer under clause B(iii) of Section 2.1(a).

     Section 2.2 Compliance with Securities Laws

     In addition to any other requirements of this Agreement, the Stockholder shall not Transfer
any shares of Common Stock at any time, unless (a) the Transfer is pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act and in compliance with any other applicable federal
securities laws and state securities or “blue sky” laws or (b) such Stockholder shall have
furnished Bioheart with an opinion of counsel, which opinion and counsel shall be satisfactory to
Bioheart in its reasonable judgment, to the effect that no such registration is required because of
the availability of an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and under any
applicable state securities or “blue sky” laws.

     Section 2.3 Permitted Transfers

          Section 2.3.1 Affiliate Transfers. The restrictions contained in Section 2.1(a)
shall not apply to any Transfer of 100% of the Common Stock owned by the Stockholder to an
Affiliate of the Stockholder that is not an individual. Any such Transferee must, as a condition
to Transfer, agree to be bound by this Agreement as a Stockholder hereunder. In the event that any
one or more parties other than the Person who is the Stockholder on the date of this Agreement (the
“Original Stockholder”) becomes

3

 

party to this Agreement (or counterpart to this Agreement) as the Stockholder hereunder, such
parties shall have no rights under this Section 2.3.1. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such
Transfer may be affected under this Section 2.3.1 unless Bioheart is satisfied, in its reasonable
discretion that the proposed Transferee is an Accredited Investor.

          Section 2.3.2 Transfers to Another Stockholder. The restrictions contained in Section
2.1(a) shall not apply to any Transfer by the Stockholder to any one of the other stockholders of
Bioheart if the Transfer occurs more than 18 months after the time when the shares to be
transferred were acquired by the transferring Stockholder; provided, however, that no more than one
Transfer may be made by the Stockholder under this Section 2.3.2 in any 90-day period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such Transfer may be affected unless Bioheart is satisfied, in
its reasonable discretion that the proposed Transferee is an Accredited Investor.

     Section 2.4 Transfers to Third Parties; Rights of First Offer After 3 Years or Upon
Improper Transfer.

          Section 2.4.1 (a) Notice of Right of First Offer. From and after the third annual
anniversary of the date of this Agreement, if the Stockholder (for purposes of this section, the
“Selling Stockholder”) desires to make a bona fide offer and sale of any of its Common
Stock to a third party (a “Proposed Transferee”) (other than a Section 2.1 Transfer or a
Transfer pursuant to Section 2.3, 2.5 or 2.6), then the Selling Stockholder shall cause
such offer to be reduced to writing and the Selling Stockholder shall deliver a Notice of Right
of First Offer to the Company and HJL containing the following information:

     (i) the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be so transferred (the “Offered
Stock”) (it being agreed that the Offered Stock must constitute the entire legal and beneficial
interest in whole shares of Stock, and not any lesser rights or interests therein or any fractional
shares);

     (ii) the terms and conditions of the proposed transfer (the “Offered Terms”), which terms
shall include (A) the price per share at which the Selling Stockholder desires to sell the Offered
Stock, and the timing of such payment (which price shall be payable only in cash, unless the
Company permits other consideration to be paid, which consideration shall be valued as determined
by the Company’s board of directors) and (B) the identity (if known or then contemplated) of the
proposed or potential transferee(s) of the Offered Stock (i.e., name, occupation and address); and

     (iii) an irrevocable affirmative offer made by the Selling Stockholder to transfer the Offered
Stock to the Company and/or HJL in accordance with this Stockholder Agreement, at a price (the
“Offer Price”) equal to the cash portion of the price included in the Offered Terms plus
additional cash equal to the fair market value (as determined by the Company’s Board of Directors)
of any non-cash consideration included in the Offered Terms as indicated in the Notice of Right of
First Offer (i.e., the number of shares of Offered Stock multiplied by the per share
price).

     The date that the Notice of Right of First Offer is first received by the Company shall
constitute the “First Offer Notice Date”.

          (b) Right of First Offer to the Company. The Company shall have the exclusive,
unconditional and irrevocable option to purchase and acquire from the Selling Stockholder all or
any portion of the Offered Stock in its discretion, in accordance with the provisions of the Notice
of Right of First Offer (other than the purchase price, which shall be payable in cash), for a
period of thirty (30) days from the First Offer Notice Date, in accordance with the procedure
described in this Section 2.4.1. The Selling Stockholder hereby irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees to sell, transfer and convey

4

 

the Offered Stock, and all of such stockholder’s right, title and interest in and to such
stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.4.1 (including this
subsection (b)). The Company will be entitled to give written notice (the “Company Exercise
Notice”) to the Selling Stockholder and to HJL, within thirty (30) business days from the First
Offer Notice Date, of such party’s election to acquire all or any portion of the Offered Stock.
The Company Exercise Notice shall refer to the Notice of Right of First Offer and shall set forth
the number of shares of Offered Stock sought to be acquired by the Company pursuant to the exercise
of its first offer rights hereunder.

          (c) Second Priority Right of First Offer to HJL. In the event that the Company shall
either (x) fail to deliver the Company Exercise Notice, properly and on a timely basis, as required
in Section 2.4.1(b) hereof, or (y) deliver the Company Exercise Notice but shall elect to
purchase less than all of the shares of Offered Stock, then HLJ shall have the exclusive,
unconditional and irrevocable option to purchase and acquire the Remaining Offered Stock, in whole
but not in part, in accordance with the provisions of the Notice of Right of First Offer (other
than the purchase price, which shall be payable in cash), for a period of thirty (30) days from the
First Offer Notice Date, in accordance with the procedure described in this Section 2.4.1.
As used herein, the term “Remaining Offered Stock” shall mean, in the case of the event
described in clause (x) of the immediately preceding sentence, all Offered Stock, and, in the case
of the event described in clause (y) of the immediately preceding sentence, all shares of Offered
Stock other than those shares with respect to which the Company exercised its right to purchase in
the Company Exercise Notice). HJL will be entitled to give written notice (the “HJL Exercise
Notice” and, generally, together with the Company Exercise Notice, the “Exercise
Notice”) to the Selling Stockholder and the Company, within thirty (30) days from the First
Offer Notice Date, of HJL’s election to acquire all of the Remaining Offered Stock in accordance
with this Section 2.4.1(c). The HJL Exercise Notice shall refer to the Notice of Right of
First Offer and shall set forth the number of shares of Remaining Offered Stock to be acquired by
HJL pursuant to the exercise of its first offer rights hereunder.

          (d) Requirement to Purchase All Offered Stock. Notwithstanding the provisions of the
preceding subsections 2.4.1(b) and 2.4.1(c), the option to purchase Common Stock described in the
Notice of Right of First Offer may be exercised and the Closing (as hereinafter defined) on such
purchase consummated only if HJL and/or the Company, alone or collectively, agree to purchase all
of the Offered Stock pursuant to one or both of their respective Exercise Notices.

          (e) Closing and Tender Requirements. The consummation of any transfer to the Company
or HJL required to be effected pursuant to this Section 2.4.1 shall constitute the
“Closing”, and the time and date of such Closing shall constitute the “Closing
Date”. The Closing shall be held at the principal office of the Company, at 10:00 a.m. on the
fortieth (40th) day subsequent to the First Offer Notice Date (or such other date, time or place as
mutually agreed upon by the parties to the transaction); subject, in any case, to extension until
expiration or termination of any applicable regulatory waiting periods (including, without
limitation, if applicable, pursuant to the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended) and satisfaction of all other applicable regulatory conditions. At the Closing, the
Selling Stockholder shall present to the purchaser(s) (the Company and/or HJL, as the case may be)
all certificates for the Offered Stock required to be sold in such transaction, in proper form for
transfer, including signed endorsements or stock powers. The Offered Stock shall be transferred
free and clear of all liens, security interests and encumbrances or adverse claims of any kind or
character. At the Closing, the purchaser(s), upon receipt of proper tender of the Offered Stock,
shall tender full payment of the Offer Price in conformity with the Offered Terms as set forth in
the Notice of Right of First Offer. In addition, if the Person selling Common Stock is the
personal representative of a deceased Stockholder, the personal representative shall also deliver
to the purchaser or purchasers (i) copies of letters testamentary or letters of administration
evidencing his appointment and qualification, (ii) a certificate issued by the Internal Revenue
Service pursuant to Section 6325 of Internal Revenue Code of

5

 

1986, as amended (the “Code”), discharging the shares being sold from liens imposed by
the Code (or, if it is impossible to obtain such certificate by the Closing Date, the sale of such
Common Stock may be consummated and the proceeds placed in escrow pending receipt thereof) and
(iii) an estate tax waiver issued by the state of the decedent’s domicile.

          (f) Permitted Transfer Following Expiration or Non-Exercise of Right(s) of First
Offer. If the Company and HJL shall either (x) elect in writing not to exercise their Rights
of First Offer under this Section 2.4 or (y) fail to deliver the Company Exercise Notice and/or the
HJL Exercise Notice in satisfaction of paragraph (d) of this Section 2.4 within thirty (30) days
after the First Offer Notice Date and in accordance with this Section 2.4, then all (and not less
than all) of the Offered Stock may be sold by the Selling Stockholder, at any time during the
ensuing sixty (60) days, at a price not less than the purchase price contained in the Offered Terms
(as determined in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.4.1) and on material terms no
more favorable in the aggregate to the purchaser than the Offered Terms as set forth in the Notice
of Right of First Offer; provided, however, that the purchaser of such Stock, as a condition to the
effectiveness of such transfer, must first execute a written acknowledgment and agreement, in form
and substance reasonable satisfactory to the Company, that such purchaser is an Accredited Investor
and has become a Stockholder and is a party to this Stockholder Agreement and that such purchaser
agrees to be bound by the terms, restrictions, provisions and conditions set forth in this
Stockholder Agreement (as such may be amended from time to time).

          Section 2.4.2 Improper Transfers; Right of First Offer Upon Improper Transfer. Absent
the right to effect a Transfer of Common Stock pursuant to a Section 2.1 Transfer or a Transfer
pursuant to Sections 2.3, 2.4, 2.5 or 2.6 hereof, any Transfer or purported Transfer of
Common Stock by the Stockholder at any time during the term of this Stockholder Agreement, whether
voluntary or involuntary, which is not in compliance with the terms and provisions of this Article
2, as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors (hereinafter, an “Improper
Transfer”) shall be invalid, null, void and of no force or effect, and shall not be effected or
permitted on the stock books and records of the Company, which constitute the definitive records
regarding the issuance and transfer of Common Stock. In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, promptly upon discovery of any such Improper Transfer or attempted Improper Transfer,
the Company may in its discretion issue a Notice of Right of First Offer (with the date of such
issue being deemed to be the “First Offer Notice Date” therefore) (hereinafter, the
“Corporate Notice of Rights”), a copy of which shall be sent to the person attempting or
purporting to make such Improper Transfer (the “Improper Transferor”) and to his or her
intended transferee. The Improper Transferor shall comply with any requests for information that
the Company shall make regarding such Improper Transfer. Upon the giving of the Corporate Notice
of Rights, the time periods for the exercise of the Company’s and HJL’s purchase options specified
in Section 2.4.1 (treating such Corporate Notice of Rights as if it were a “Notice of Right
of First Offer” under Section 2.4.1) shall commence running, and the Company and HJL shall have
such rights to purchase the shares subject to the Improper Transfer as provided in Section
2.4.1 above with respect thereto. The rights of the Company under this Section 2.4.2
shall be in addition to any rights, at law or in equity, which the Company may have in connection
with any Improper Transfer. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and whether or
not the Company elects to give a Corporate Notice of Rights in connection with an Improper
Transfer, the Company in its discretion may void and terminate any recordation of the Improper
Transfer and may unilaterally cancel any stock certificates that may have been issued reflecting
such Improper Transfer.

     Section 2.5 Tag-Along Rights for Stockholder

          Section 2.5.1 Tag-Along Notice. In the event that HJL proposes to sell all or a
portion of the shares of Common Stock owned by him constituting twenty percent (20%) or more of the
Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock held by him on the date hereof (such shares to be
sold,

6

 

the “HJL Shares”) and such sale is proposed to occur prior to the Company’s IPO (a
“Covered Transaction”), then HJL shall give written notice (the “Tag-Along Notice”)
to the Stockholder prior to consummating such sale, stating HJL’s bona fide intention to make such
sale, referring to this Section 2.5, specifying the number of shares of Common Stock proposed to be
sold and specifying the bona fide per share price (the “Tag-Along Price”), and the material
terms pursuant to which such sale is proposed to be made (together with the Tag-Along Price, the
“Tag-Along Terms”), and specifying the name, address, and relationship, if any, to HJL of
the proposed purchaser or transferee. Upon the request of the Stockholder, HJL shall promptly
furnish such information as may be reasonably requested (to the extent such information is known to
HJL) to establish that the offer and proposed transferee are bona fide. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the provisions of this Section 2.5 shall not apply to (i) a transfer by HJL to any
Affiliate of HJL that agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as a Stockholder hereunder
or (ii) a transfer of Common Stock pursuant to a registration statement filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

          Section 2.5.2 Exercise of Tag-Along Option.

               (a) Option. The Stockholder shall have the option until the 15th day (the “Option
Date”) following the date of the Tag-Along Notice to elect to participate in the Covered
Transaction by selling a number of shares (the “Tag-Along Shares”) of Common Stock held by
Stockholder equal to the product of (1) the quotient of (A) the aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock proposed to be sold by HJL in the Covered Transaction divided by (B) the aggregate
number of shares of Common Stock then owned by HJL, multiplied by (2) the number of shares
of Common Stock then owned by the Stockholder, for the same Tag-Along Price and otherwise on the
same Tag-Along Terms; provided, that in the event that the purchase price for the Common Stock to
be sold by HJL consists in whole or in part of securities that are not issued in a transaction
registered under the Securities Act, then the Stockholder shall not be entitled to any rights to
sell Tag-Along Shares under this Section 2.5 unless the Stockholder is then an “Accredited
Investor” (as defined in Rule 501 promulgated under the Securities Act) and Stockholder certifies
in writing to Bioheart in form reasonable satisfactory to Bioheart that Stockholder is an
“Accredited Investor”.

               (b) Failure to Exercise Option. If the Stockholder does not timely exercise its
option to sell shares of Common Stock in the Covered Transaction by delivering written notice of
such exercise (the “Exercise Notice”) to each of HJL and the Company prior to the Option
Date, then HJL shall be free, for a period of 90 days following the Option Date, to sell the HJL
Shares (or any portion of the HJL Shares that the proposed purchaser desires to purchase) to the
proposed transferee, as long as all of the HJL Shares to be sold are sold on material terms no more
favorable in the aggregate to the purchaser than the Tag-Along Terms; in which event the
Stockholder shall not have any rights to participate in such sale under this Section 2.5.

               (c) Sale Agreement. If the Stockholder timely elects to sell Tag-Along Shares by
delivering his Exercise Notice to each of HJL and the Company on or prior to the Option Date, then
the Stockholder shall and does hereby agree to cooperate in consummating such a sale, including,
without limitation, by becoming a party to the sales agreement for the Covered Transaction with
respect to the Tag-Along Shares (or portion thereof) to be sold by the Stockholder, delivering at
the consummation of such sale, stock certificates and other instruments for such Common Stock duly
endorsed for transfer, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, and voting or consenting in
favor of such transaction (to the extent a vote or consent is required) and taking any other
necessary or appropriate action in furtherance thereof, including the execution and delivery of any
other appropriate agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents. In connection with
such sale, the Stockholder may be required to make representations and indemnities to the buyer
solely and in customary form with respect

7

 

to the Stockholder and the Stockholder’s ownership of, and his authority and rights to sell,
his Tag-Along Shares and shall have no obligation with respect to transaction expenses of or on
behalf of HJL.

               (d) Limitations on Tag-A-Long Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision contained
in this Agreement, there shall be no liability on the part of Bioheart or HJL to the Stockholder in
the event that a Covered Transaction subject to this Section 2.5 is not consummated in full or at
all for any reason whatsoever. The decision whether to propose or to consummate a Covered

sold by the Stockholder shall be proportionately reduced.

          Section 2.6.1 Exercise. If HJL, by himself or together with any one or more of his
Affiliates and/or family members or trusts for the benefit of him and/or his family (HJL and such
other sellers are referred to below as the “HJL Sellers”) propose to make a bona fide sale
of shares constituting an aggregate of one-third (33 and 1/3 percent) or more of the Company’s
outstanding shares of Common Stock to any proposed transferee not Affiliated with any of the HJL
Sellers with respect to which a favorable opinion of a third party investment bank or valuation
firm has been obtained by Bioheart with respect to the fairness, from a financial point of view, of
the proposed transaction to the stockholders of Bioheart other than the HJL Sellers (the “Other
Stockholders,” including the Stockholder party hereto), then HJL shall have the right (a
“Drag-Along Right”), exercisable upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to the
Stockholder (“Drag Notice”), to require the Stockholder to sell, and the Stockholder shall
thereupon be required to sell, to the proposed transferee a number of shares (the “Drag-Along
Shares”) of Common Stock held by the Stockholder equal to the product of (1) the quotient of
(A) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock to be sold by the HJL Sellers divided by (B) the
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock then owned by the HJL Sellers times (2) the number of
shares of Common Stock then owned by the Stockholder, on the same terms and conditions and at the
same price per share (the “Drag-Along Price”) applicable to the HJL Sellers.

          Section 2.6.2 Sale Agreement. If the Stockholder is required to sell shares of Common
Stock under this Section 2.6 (a “Drag-Along Seller”), the Stockholder agrees to cooperate
in consummating such a sale, including, without limitation, by becoming a party to the sales
agreement and all other appropriate related agreements, delivering at the consummation of such
sale, stock certificates and other instruments for such shares of Common Stock duly endorsed for
transfer, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, and voting or consenting in favor of such
transaction (to the extent a vote or consent is required) and taking any other necessary or
appropriate action in furtherance thereof, including the execution and delivery of any other
appropriate agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents (including documents for the
sale or termination of Options if required). In connection with such sale, the Stockholder may be
required to make representations and indemnities to the buyer solely and in customary form with
respect to the Stockholder and the Stockholder’s ownership of, and his authority and rights to
sell, his Drag-Along Shares and shall have no obligation with respect to any transaction expenses
of or on behalf of the HJL Sellers.

PREEMPTIVE PURCHAE RIGHTS IN CETAIN SUBSEQUENT FINANCING TRANSACTIONS

     Section 4.1 Exchange Right for Stock in Certain Subsequent Equity Financings. In
the event of the issuance and sale by the Company for cash of shares of any class or series of the
Company’s authorized stock (other than Excluded Stock), including, but not limited to, those shares
which are convertible into shares of Common Stock (which sale may or may not also include the
issuance and sale of shares of Common stock or other securities) during the period commencing on
the Effective Date and terminating one hundred and eighty days thereafter (a “Triggering
Sale”), the Company shall give written notice of such Triggering Sale to the Stockholder,
which notice shall describe the securities proposed to be issued by the Company in such transaction
(the “Included Securities”), and the number, price and payment terms therefore. The
Stockholder shall have the right, for a period of fifteen (15) days following the date of receipt
of such notice, to agree irrevocably and in writing to purchase, at the same price and on the same
terms and conditions (except for the form of payment, which shall be in Shares as provided in the
next succeeding sentence) as in the Triggering Sale, that number (the “Required Number”) of
Included Securities which is equal to the quotient of (a) the product of the number of shares
purchased by the Stockholder pursuant to the Subscription Agreement (the “Payment Shares”)
multiplied by $4.75 (as adjusted for stock splits and similar events as provided in this paragraph
below), divided by (b) the purchase price per share (or other unit, as the case may be) of
the securities constituting the Included Securities. In lieu of using cash as purchase price
consideration for the purchase of Included Securities in the connection with exercising any
purchase right under this Section 4.1, the Stockholder shall use its Payment Shares, properly
tendered and endorsed for transfer to the Company, as purchase currency and consideration (the
“Value Per Share”), which Payment Shares shall, upon the closing of such purchase, be
transferred by the Stockholder to the Company free and clear of all liens, security interests and
encumbrances or adverse claims of any kind or character other than restrictions under applicable
securities laws. The Stockholder may agree to purchase all (but not less than all) of the Required
Number of Included Securities, by written notice thereof — which shall constitute an irrevocable
offer to purchase — given by him or it to the Company prior to the expiration of the aforesaid
fifteen (15) day period, in which event the Company shall sell, and such stockholder shall buy, at
the closing of the Triggering Sale or on a date specified by the Company within a reasonable period
of time (not to exceed fifteen (15) days) after such closing, upon the terms and conditions
specified in the Triggering Sale (except with respect to the purchase consideration, which shall
be paid by the Stockholder’s delivery and transfer to the Company of all the Payment Shares as
provided in the Section), all of the Required Number of Included Securities, which delivery and
transfer shall include the Stockholder’s delivery of stock certificates and other appropriate
instruments of transfer for the Payment Shares, duly endorsed for transfer, so as to effect the
transfer of the Payment Shares to the Company free and clear of all liens and encumbrances other
than restrictions under applicable securities laws. The $4.75 Value Per Share Specified above
relates to the Shares as constituted on the date of this Agreement (and following the closing of
the Subscription

12

 

Agreement, which is being effected at a price of $4.75 per share), which Value Per Share shall be
adjusted appropriately (and without duplication of any other adjustment required hereunder or
otherwise) to reflect the effect of any stock split, stock dividend, combination, reclassification
or similar event or transaction, and any such adjustment made in good faith by the Company’s Board
of Directors in accordance with the foregoing shall be binding on Stockholders.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, upon the consummation of the
Stockholder’s purchase of Included Securities under this Section 4.1 (including without limitation
the Stockholder’s execution and delivery of the required agreements and insturments in connection
therewith which shall provide rights equivalent to those of the purchasers of Included Securities
(the “Section 4.1 Agreements”)), the Stockholder and the Stockholder’s Common Stock and
other securities of the Company which were subject to this Agreement prior to such purchases under
Section 4.1 together shall continue to be subject to and bound by this Agreement following such
purchase as applicable pursuant to the terms hereof; provided, however, that it is
hereby further agreed that if the provisions of this Agreement (upon application of this paragraph)
conflict with the terms of the Section 4.1 Agreements, then this Agreement and/or the Section 4.1
Agreements shall be limited, modified and/or interpreted as and to the extent necessary,
permissable and/or appropriate to resolve any such conflict; it being agreed that any such
limitation, modification or interpretation of the terms hereof or thereof and the determination of
the existence of any such conflict shall be determined solely by the Company’s Board of Directors
in good faith.

of this Agreement ot the contrary, no purchase or acquisition rights are provided or available
under this Article IV with regard to grants, issuances or slaes of Excluded Stock.

Agreement, the terms and provisons of this Article IV (ant the rights and obligations provided
hereunder) shall terminate, and become null, void and of no further forece or effect, upon the
earlier of (i) termination of this Article IV or this Agreement as provided in Article III, or (ii)
in the event that the Stockholder ceases to own at least fifty percent (50%) of the Shares acquired
under the Subscription Agreement or (iii) one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Effective

waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar), nor shall any such waiver
constitute a continuing waiver unless otherwise expressly so provided.

     Section 6.6 Severability

     If any term or provision of this Agreement shall to any extent be held to be invalid or
unenforceable under applicable law by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder of this
Agreement shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Agreement shall be
valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Upon the determination that any term
or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties shall negotiate
in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect their original intent as closely as possible
in an acceptable manner to the end that transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the
extent possible, but in any event this Agreement shall be construed to give effect to the purposes
and intents indicated herein to the fullest practicable extent, whether or not the parties are able
to determine such modification to this Agreement.

     Section 6.7 Further Assurances

     The parties hereto shall from time to time execute and deliver all such further documents and
do all acts and things as the other party may reasonably require to effectively carry out or better
evidence or perfect the full intent and meaning of this Agreement, including, without limitation,
to the extent necessary or appropriate or requested by Bioheart, using all reasonable efforts to
cause the amendment of the Articles of Incorporation or the ByLaws of Bioheart in order to provide
for the enforcement of this Agreement in accordance with its terms.

     Section 6.8 Entire Agreement; Counterparts

     This Agreement represents the complete agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby and supersedes all prior written or oral agreements and
understandings. This Agreement may be executed by any one or more of the parties hereto in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts
shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

     Section 6.9 No Third Party Beneficiaries

     The provisions of this Agreement shall be only for the benefit of the parties to this
Agreement, and no other Person shall have any third party beneficiary or other right hereunder.

     Section 6.10 Pronouns.

     Whenever the context of this Agreement permits, the masculine or neuter gender shall
include the feminine, masculine and neuter genders, and any reference to the singular or
plural shall be interchangeable with the other.

     Section 6.11 Dispute Resolution

     If two or more parties should have a material dispute arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or the parties’ respective rights and duties hereunder, then the parties will resolve
such dispute in the following manner: (i) any party may at any time deliver to the other parties to
the dispute a written dispute notice setting forth a brief description of the issue for which such
notice initiates the dispute resolution mechanism contemplated by this Section 5.11; (ii) during
the forty-five (45) day period

17

 

following the delivery of the notice described in the foregoing clause (i) above, appropriate
representatives of the various parties will meet and seek to resolve the disputed issue through
negotiation, (iii) if representatives of the parties are unable to resolve the disputed issue
through negotiation, then within thirty (30) days after the period described in the foregoing
clause (ii) above, the parties will refer the issue (to the exclusion of a court of law) to final
and binding arbitration in Broward County, Florida, in accordance with the then existing rules (the
“Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and judgment upon the
award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof;
provided, however, that the law applicable to any controversy shall be the law of the State of
Florida, regardless of principles of conflicts of laws. In any arbitration pursuant to this
Agreement, (i) discovery shall be allowed and governed by the Florida Code of Civil Procedure and
(ii) the award or decision shall be rendered by a majority of the members of a Board of Arbitration
consisting of three (3) members, one of whom shall be appointed by each of the respective parties
and the third of whom shall be the chairman of the panel and be appointed by mutual agreement of
said two party-appointed arbitrators. In the event of failure of said two arbitrators to agree
within sixty (60) days after the commencement of the arbitration proceeding upon the appointment of
the third arbitrator, the third arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the
Rules. In the event that either party shall fail to appoint an arbitrator within thirty (30) days
after the commencement of the arbitration proceedings, such arbitrator and the third arbitrator
shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules. Nothing set forth above shall be
interpreted to prevent the parties from agreeing in writing to submit any dispute to a single
arbitrator in lieu of a three (3) member Board of Arbitration or to submit the dispute to any state
or federal court of proper jurisdiction. Upon the completion of the selection of the Board of
Arbitration (or if the parties agree otherwise in writing, a single arbitrator), an award or
decision shall be rendered within no more than forty-five (45) days. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the request by either party for specific performance or preliminary or permanent
injunctive relief, whether prohibitive or mandatory, shall not be subject to mandatory arbitration
under this Section 5.11 and may be adjudicated only by the courts of the State of Florida or the
U.S. District Court in Florida which are located in Broward County, Florida.

Effective: [See Text Amendments]

Code of Federal Regulations Currentness
 Title
17. Commodity and Securities Exchanges
  Chapter II.
Securities and Exchange Commission
   
Part 230. General Rules and Regulations, Securities Act of 1933 (Refs & Annos)
    General
(Refs & Annos)

§ 230.144A Private resales of securities to institutions.

Preliminary Notes:

1. This section relates solely to the application of section 5 of the Act and not to antifraud or
other provisions of the federal securities laws.

2. Attempted compliance with this section does not act as an exclusive election; any seller
hereunder may also claim the availability of any other applicable exemption from the registration
requirements of the Act.

3. In view of the objective of this section and the policies underlying the Act, this section is
not available with respect to any transaction or series of transactions that, although in technical
compliance with this section, is part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration provisions of
the Act. In such cases, registration under the Act is required.

4. Nothing in this section obviates the need for any issuer or any other person to comply with the
securities registration or broker-dealer registration requirements of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the Exchange Act), whenever such requirements are applicable.

5. Nothing in this section obviates the need for any person to comply with any applicable state law
relating to the offer or sale of securities.

6. Securities acquired in a transaction made pursuant to the provisions of this section are deemed
to be restricted securities within the meaning of § 230.144(a)(3) of this chapter.

7. The fact that purchasers of securities from the issuer thereof may purchase such securities with
a view to reselling such securities pursuant to this section will not affect the availability to
such issuer of an exemption under section 4(2) of the Act, or Regulation D under the Act, from the
registration requirements of the Act.

(a) Definitions.

(1) For purposes of this section, qualified institutional buyer shall mean:

(i) Any of the following entities, acting for its own account or the accounts of other qualified

     Note: A purchase by an insurance company for one or more of its separate accounts, as defined
by section 2(a)(37) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “Investment Company Act”), which are
neither registered under section 8 of the Investment Company Act nor required to be so registered,
shall be deemed to be a purchase for the account of such insurance company.

(B) Any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act or any business
development company as defined in section 2(a)(48) of that Act;

(C) Any Small Business Investment Company licensed by the U.S. Small Business Administration

(iv) Any investment company registered under the Investment Company Act, acting for its own
account or for the accounts of other qualified institutional buyers, that is part of a family of

(v) Any entity, all of the equity owners of which are qualified institutional buyers, acting for

and loan association or equivalent institution, acting for its own account or the accounts of
other qualified institutional buyers, that in the aggregate owns and invests on a discretionary
basis at least $100 million in securities of issuers that are not affiliated with it and that
has an audited net worth of at least $25 million as demonstrated in its latest annual financial
statements, as of a date not more than 16 months preceding the date of sale under the Rule in
the case of a U.S. bank or savings and loan association, and not more than 18 months preceding
such date of sale for a foreign bank or savings and loan association or equivalent institution.

(2) In determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and invested on a discretionary
basis by an entity, the following instruments and interests shall be excluded: bank deposit
notes and certificates of deposit; loan participations;
repurchase agreements; securities owned but subject to a repurchase agreement; and currency,

17 C.F.R. § 230.144A

(3) The aggregate value of securities owned and invested on a discretionary basis by an entity
shall be the cost of such securities, except where the entity reports its securities holdings in
its financial statements on the basis of their market value, and no current information with
respect to the cost of those securities has been published. In the latter event, the securities
may be valued at market for purposes of this section.

(4) In determining the aggregate amount of securities owned by an entity and invested on a
discretionary basis, securities owned by subsidiaries of the entity that are consolidated with
the entity in its financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles may be included if the investments of such subsidiaries are managed under the
direction of the entity, except that, unless the entity is a reporting company under section 13
or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, securities owned by such subsidiaries may not be included if the
entity itself is a majority-owned subsidiary that would be included in the consolidated
financial statements of another enterprise.

(5) For purposes of this section, riskless principal transaction means a transaction in which a
dealer buys a security from any person and makes a simultaneous offsetting sale of such security
to a qualified institutional buyer, including another dealer acting as riskless principal for a
qualified institutional buyer.

(6) For purposes of this section, effective conversion premium means the amount, expressed as a
percentage of the security’s conversion value, by which the price at issuance of a convertible
security exceeds its conversion value.

(7) For purposes of this section, effective exercise premium means the amount, expressed as a
percentage of the warrant’s exercise value, by which the sum of the price at issuance and the
exercise price of a warrant exceeds its exercise value.

(b) Sales by persons other than issuers or dealers. Any person, other than the issuer or a dealer,
who offers or sells securities in compliance with the conditions set forth in paragraph (d) of this
section shall be deemed not to be engaged in a distribution of such securities and therefore not to
be an underwriter of such securities within the meaning of sections 2(11) and 4(1) of the Act.

(c) Sales by Dealers. Any dealer who offers or sells securities in compliance with the conditions
set forth in paragraph (d) of this section shall be deemed not to be a participant in a
distribution of such securities within the meaning of section 4(3)(C) of the Act and not to be an
underwriter of such securities within the meaning of section 2(11) of the Act, and such securities
shall be deemed not to have been offered to the public within the meaning of section 4(3)(A) of the
Act.

(d) Conditions to be met. To qualify for exemption under this section, an offer or sale must meet
the following conditions:

(1) The securities are offered or sold only to a qualified institutional buyer or to an offeree
or purchaser that the seller and any person acting on behalf of the seller reasonably believe is
a qualified institutional buyer. In determining whether a prospective purchaser is a qualified
institutional buyer, the seller and any person acting on its behalf shall be entitled to rely
upon the following non-exclusive methods of establishing the prospective purchaser’s ownership
and discretionary investments of securities:

(i) The prospective purchaser’s most recent publicly available financial statements, Provided
That such statements present the information as of a date within 16 months preceding the date of
sale of securities under this section in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months
preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser;

(ii) The most recent publicly available information appearing in documents filed by the
prospective purchaser with the Commission or another United States federal, state, or local
governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, or with a foreign governmental agency or
self-regulatory organization, Provided That any such information is as of a date within 16
months preceding the date of sale of securities under this section in the case of a U.S.
purchaser and within 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser;

17 C.F.R. § 230.144A

(iii) The most recent publicly available information appearing in a recognized securities
manual, Provided That such information is as of a date within 16 months preceding the date of
sale of securities under this section in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months
preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or

(iv) A certification by the chief financial officer, a person fulfilling an equivalent function,
or other executive officer of the purchaser, specifying the amount of securities owned and
invested on a discretionary basis by the purchaser as of a specific date on or since the close

family of investment companies, a certification by an executive officer of the investment
adviser specifying the amount of securities owned by the family of investment companies as of a
specific date on or since the close of the purchaser’s most recent fiscal year;

(2) The seller and any person acting on its behalf takes reasonable steps to ensure that the
purchaser is aware that the seller may rely on the exemption from the provisions of section 5 of
the Act provided by this section;

(3) The securities offered or sold:

(i) Were not, when issued, of the same class as securities listed on a national securities
exchange registered under section 6 of the Exchange Act or quoted in a U.S. automated
inter-dealer quotation system; Provided, That securities that are convertible or exchangeable
into securities so listed or quoted at the time of issuance and that had an effective conversion
premium of less than 10 percent, shall be treated as securities of the class into which they are
convertible or exchangeable; and that warrants that may be exercised for securities so listed
or quoted at the time of issuance, for a period of less than 3 years from the date of issuance,
or that had an effective exercise premium of less than 10 percent, shall be treated as
securities of the class to be issued upon exercise; and Provided further, That the Commission
may from time to time, taking into account then-existing market practices, designate additional
securities and classes of securities that will not be deemed of the same class as securities
listed on a national securities exchange or quoted in a U.S. automated inter-dealer quotation
system; and

(ii) Are not securities of an open-end investment company, unit investment trust or face-amount
certificate company that is or is required to be registered under section 8 of the Investment
Company Act; and

(4)(i) In the case of securities of an issuer that is neither subject to section 13 or 15(d) of
the Exchange Act, nor exempt from reporting pursuant to Rule 12g3-2(b) (§ 240.12g3-2(b)
of this chapter) under the Exchange Act, nor a foreign government as defined in Rule 405 (§
230.405 of this chapter) eligible to register securities under Schedule B of the Act, the
holder and a prospective purchaser designated by the holder have the right to obtain from the
issuer, upon request of the holder, and the prospective purchaser has received from the issuer,
the seller, or a person acting on either of their behalf, at or prior to the time of sale, upon
such prospective purchaser’s request to the holder or the issuer, the following information
(which shall be reasonably current in relation to the date of resale under this section): a
very brief statement of the nature of the business of the issuer and the products and services
it offers; and the issuer’s most recent balance sheet and profit and loss and retained earnings
statements, and similar financial statements for such part of the two preceding fiscal years as
the issuer has been in operation (the financial statements should be audited to the extent
reasonably available).

(ii) The requirement that the information be reasonably current will be presumed to be satisfied
if:

(A) The balance sheet is as of a date less than 16 months before the date of resale, the
statements of profit and loss and retained earnings are for the 12 months preceding the date
of such balance sheet, and if such balance sheet is not as of a date less than 6 months
before the date of resale, it shall be accompanied by additional statements of profit and
loss and retained earnings for the period from the date of such balance sheet to a date less
than 6 months before the date of resale; and

(e) Offers and sales of securities pursuant to this section shall be deemed not to affect the
availability of any exemption or safe harbor relating to any previous or subsequent offer or sale
of such securities by the issuer or any prior or subsequent holder thereof.

Kenneth R. Koch, Esq.

Squadron, Ellenoff, Pleasant & Lehrer

551 Fifth Avenue

New York, New York 10176Dear Mr. Koch:

Our responses to the interpretive questions raised in your letter of December 27, 1991 regarding
the positions expressed in the staff’s letter dated June 26, 1990 to Black Box Incorporated (the
“Black Box letter”) are as follows:

1. The staff’s positions in the Black Box letter were not based on the financial condition of
the company. Specifically, in response to your concerns expressed during our telephone
conversations, the staff’s position with respect to integration of the Black Box registered
initial public offering and a simultaneous unregistered offering by Black Box of convertible
debentures (the “Black Box offerings”) was a policy position taken primarily in consideration of
the nature and number of the offerees, and not based on the financial condition of the company.

2. The number of offerees and purchasers is a factor considered by the staff in evaluating the
applicability of the policy position. As we discussed, the Black Box policy position on
integration was simply a formal articulation of an informal position the staff has taken
previously with respect to simultaneous registered offerings and unregistered offerings to a
limited number of first-tier institutional investors in connection with structured financings.
Because the position expressed with respect to the Black Box offerings is a policy position, it
is narrowly construed by the staff. The staff interprets the position to be limited in
applicability to situations where a registered offering would otherwise be integrated with an
unregistered offering to i) persons who would be qualified institutional buyers for purposes of
Rule 144A and 2) no more than two or three large institutional accredited investors. The
position does not constitute a determination by the staff that the unregistered offering is in
fact a bona fide private placement.[FN1]

FN1 With regard to the availability of the Section 4(2) private offering exemption, it should be
noted that the staff takes the position that the filing of a registration statement is deemed to be
the commencement of the public offering. See letter from former director of the Division of
Corporation Finance, John J. Huber, to Michael Bradfield, general counsel of the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System (March 23, 1984). Further, your attention is directed to SEC
Litigation Release No. 10241 (December 19, 1983), regarding SEC v. Michael A. Traiger, Traiger
Energy Investments (U.S.D.C.C.D.Cal.Civil Action No. 83-2738-LTL JPx).

have been different if common stock had been sold in both the public and the private offerings.
In this regard, it should be noted that the staff historically has treated an offering of a
class of securities and an offering of another security convertible into that class of
securities as offerings of the same class of securities for purposes of the integration
doctrine.

Re: Black Box Incorporated

Gentlemen:

At the suggestion of Cecilia Blye of the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”), I am writing to pose three interpretive questions concerning the Black Box
Incorporated no-action letter (“Black Box”) recently promulgated by the Commission. In Black Box,
the issuer on whose behalf the no-action request was made (the “Company”), proposed to engage in a
contemporaneous private placement of convertible debentures and a public offering of common stock.
Under the circumstances set forth in Black Box, the private placement and the public offering were
not integrated.

1. In Black Box, the Company was apparently financially troubled. Would the Staff’s answer have
changed if Black Box was not financially troubled or is Black Box a “hardship” exception to the
general rules on integration?

2. In Black Box, the private placement was made to up to 35 “qualified institutional buyers” (as
defined in Rule 144A promulgated under the Act, and up to four “accredited investors” (as defined
in Regulation D promulgated under the Act). Is there any limit on the number of “qualified
institutional buyers” or “accredited investors” to whom offers may be made or to whom sales may be
made in order to fall within the rationale of Black Box? In this connection, I note Ms. Blye’s
concern that sales made to large numbers of investors may indicate that a purportedly private
placement has been conducted as a public offering. However, when the Commission adopted
Regulation D, the Commission shifted away from the strict numerical limitations on investors under
former Rule 146. When Regulation D was adopted in 1982, the limitations on numbers of investors
(except for the limit of 35 on non-accredited investors) were eliminated. Rule 502(c) under
Regulation D focuses instead on the manner of offering and not the number of offerees. Thus,
although a large number of investors in an offering may be some indication that the offering was
conducted in a manner violative of the prohibition against a “general solicitation” under Rule
502(c), it is not by itself determinative of whether such a general solicitation has occurred.
Accordingly, I would think that the Commission would continue to rely on the body of interpretative
law that has grown up around Rule 502(c), rather than a numerical limitation on investors, to
determine whether a public offering has been made.

If the Staff does believe that a numerical limitation on investors is appropriate for Black Box to
apply, the limit should probably only apply to the number of “accredited investors” involved in the
private placement and should not restrict the number of “qualified institutional buyers”.
Inherent in the Commission’s recent adoption of Rule 144A is the assumption that “qualified
institutional buyers” do not need the protection which the registration process provides.

*3 3. In Black Box, the Company was privately placing convertible debentures and publicly selling
common stock. Would the Staff’s answer have changed if the securities being sold in the private
placement and the public offering were identical? For example, would the answer remain the same
if Common Stock were being sold in both the private placement and the public offering.

We appreciate the Commission’s consideration of these questions. If you have any questions
concerning the above, please contact me at (212)476-8362.

An original and seven copies of this letter are submitted herewith.

Very truly yours,
