Amnis  Systems  Inc.
3450  Hillview  Avenue
Palo  Alto,  CA  94304

     Re:     Amnis Systems Inc., a Delaware Corporation (the "Company")
                  Purchase of Units (the "Units") as described below.

Gentlemen:

     The  undersigned  ("Purchaser"),  by  signing  the  signature page attached
hereto, hereby irrevocably tenders this subscription and applies to purchase the
number of Units (the "Designated Units") as set out under Purchaser's address on
the  signature page hereto for a purchase price of $8.00 per Designated Unit and
a  total  purchase  price for the Designated Units as set forth on the signature
page hereto, each Designated Unit consisting of ten shares (the "Common Shares")
of the Company's Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock"),
and  one  warrant  (a  "Warrant")  to purchase three shares of Common Stock (the
"Warrant  Shares")  at  an exercise price of $0.90 per share; provided, however,
that to the extent that the closing bid price of the Common Stock as reported by
a reliable reporting service designated by the Company (the "Closing Bid Price")
shall  be less than $0.95 for five consecutive trading days at any time prior to
30  days  after  the Registration Statement (as defined in Section 13 below) has
been  declared  effective  by  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  (the
"Commission"),  or if the Registration Statement has not been declared effective
within  180  days after the Closing Date (as defined in Section 21 below) at any
time  commencing  180  days  after  the Closing Date and until 30 days after the
Registration  Statement  has been declared effective, at the option of Purchaser
by  written  notice  to  the  Company (the "Reset Option"), the number of Common
Shares  comprising  each  Designated  Unit  shall be increased by the difference
(rounded  to  the  nearest  whole  share)  between  (A)  the  purchase price per
Designated  Unit  set  forth  on the signature page hereto divided by 80% of the

                                        4
<PAGE>
average  of  the  three  lowest  Closing Bid Prices during the five trading days
immediately  preceding  the  date  of such notice, less (B) ten, and the Company
will  deliver  the  certificates  representing  such additional Common Shares to
Purchaser no later than five business days after receipt of such written notice.

     The  amount  of  cash or good funds as tender of the purchase price for the
Designated  Units, has been paid and, based on the price per Designated Unit set
forth on the signature page hereto, is in the aggregate amount set out under the
undersigned's  address  on  the  signature  page  hereto.

     The Company has authorized the issuance, sale and delivery of up to 250,000
Units  and  intends to offer and sell other Units to other investors pursuant to
separate  similar  subscription  agreements.

     Purchaser  hereby  represents  and  warrants  to,  and  covenants with, the
Company  as follows, recognizing that the Company will rely to a material degree
upon such representations, warranties and covenants, each of which shall survive
any  acceptance  of this subscription in whole or in part by the Company and the
issuance  and  sale  of  any  Designated  Units  to  Purchaser:

1.     DUE  DILIGENCE.  Purchaser  acknowledges  that Purchaser has received and
       --------------
reviewed  a copy of the Company's Business Plan and that Purchaser has conducted
its  own  due  diligence  with  respect  to  the  information contained therein.
Purchaser  understands  and  agrees  that  the Business Plan and the information
contained  therein  are  not  to  be construed as representations, warranties or
promises  of  future  performance.

2.     COMPLIANCE  WITH  SECURITIES LAWS.  Purchaser understands and agrees that
       ---------------------------------
the  Common  Shares and Warrants comprising the Designated Units and the Warrant
Shares  have  not  been  registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the  "Securities  Act"),  by reason of one or more specific exemptions from the
registration  provisions thereof which depend upon, among other things, the bona
fide  nature  of  the investment as expressed herein.  Purchaser understands and
agrees  that  the  Company  may  present  this  Agreement  and  the  Investor
Questionnaire  attached  hereto  to such parties as it deems advisable if called
upon to establish the availability under any federal or state securities laws of
an  exemption  from  such  registration.

3.     INVESTOR QUESTIONNAIRE.  All statements made by Purchaser in the Investor
       ----------------------
Questionnaire  that is attached hereto are true, accurate and complete as of the
date  hereof.

4.     ACCREDITED  INVESTOR.  Purchaser is an "accredited investor"  (as defined
       --------------------
in  Regulation  D  under  the  Securities  Act and as described in Part B of the
Investor  Questionnaire  attached  hereto).

5.     RISK  OF  INVESTMENT.  Purchaser  has  been informed and is aware that an
       --------------------
investment  in the Company involves a high degree of risk and speculation and is
suitable only for investors who can afford a loss of their entire investment and
who  have  no  need  for  liquidity  from  their  investment.

6.     KNOWLEDGE  AND  EXPERIENCE.  Purchaser  confirms  that Purchaser has such
       --------------------------
knowledge  and  experience  in  financial  and  business  matters,  including
investments  in  companies  similar to the Company, that it is qualified to make
decisions  with  respect  to  investments  in restricted securities such as this
Agreement  and  the  Designated Units, and has requested, received, reviewed and

                                        5
<PAGE>
considered  all  information  Purchaser  deems  relevant in making a decision to
execute  this  Agreement  and  to  purchase  the  Designated  Units.  Purchaser
acknowledges  that Purchaser is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an
investment  in  the  Designated  Units.

7.     ACCESS  TO INFORMATION.  Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has made
       ----------------------
available  to  Purchaser  the opportunity to (A) discuss the Company's business,
management  and  financial  affairs  with  its management, (B) ask questions and
receive  answers  concerning  the  terms  and  conditions of the offering of the
Units,  and  (C) obtain any additional information that the Company possesses or
can  acquire  without unreasonable effort or expense that is necessary to verify
the  accuracy  of  the  information  furnished  or  to  decide whether or not to
purchase  the  Designated  Units.

8.     SUITABILITY.  Purchaser  has  carefully considered and has, to the extent
       -----------
Purchaser  deemed  necessary, discussed with Purchaser's own professional legal,
tax  and  financial  advisers the suitability of an investment in the Designated
Units  for Purchaser's particular tax and financial situation, and Purchaser has
determined  that the Units are a suitable investment.  Purchaser understands and
acknowledges  that  no  federal  or  state  agency  has  made  any  finding  or
determination  as  to  the  fairness  or  suitability  for investment in, or any
recommendation  or  endorsement  of,  the  Company  or  the  Units.

9.     INVESTMENT.  Purchaser is purchasing the Designated Units for Purchaser's
       ----------
own  account  for investment and not with a view to, or for resale in connection
with,  any distribution thereof or of any interest therein.  No person or entity
has  any  beneficial  ownership  or  interest  in  the Designated Units, and the
Designated  Units  are  not,  and  will  not  be, subject to any lien, pledge or
encumbrance  of  any  kind.

10.     RESTRICTIONS  ON RESALES.  Purchaser understands and agrees that because
        ------------------------
the  Common Shares and Warrants comprising the Units and the Warrant Shares have
not  been  registered  under  the Securities Act, the Common Shares and Warrants
comprising the Designated Units and the Warrant Shares must be held indefinitely
unless  subsequently  registered  under  the Securities Act or an exemption from
such  registration is available.  Purchaser further understands and acknowledges
that  the  Securities  Act prohibits resales of securities except pursuant to an
effective  registration  statement  or  an exemption from registration for which
such securities and Purchaser qualifies.  Purchaser understands and acknowledges
that  there  can be no assurance that Purchaser will be able to qualify for such
an  exemption  from  registration.

11.     COMPLIANCE  WITH  SECURITIES  ACT.  Purchaser  will  not,  directly  or
        ---------------------------------
indirectly,  voluntarily  offer,  sell, pledge, transfer or otherwise dispose of
(or  solicit  any  offers to buy, purchase or otherwise acquire or take a pledge
of)  its  rights  under  this  Agreement,  the  Common Shares and Warrant Shares
comprising  the  Designated  Units  or  any  interest  therein otherwise than in
compliance  with the Securities Act, any applicable state securities or blue sky
laws,  and  the  rules  and  regulations  promulgated  thereunder.

12.     REPRESENTATIONS  AND  WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY.  The Company represents
        -----------------------------------------------

organized,  validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of
Delaware and has all requisite power and authority to own, operate and lease its
properties  and assets now owned or leased by it and to carry on its business as
now  conducted.  The  Company  is  duly  qualified  to  do business as a foreign

financial  condition  or result of operation of the Company and its subsidiaries
(on  a  consolidated  basis).

(b)     CAPITAL  STRUCTURE.
        ------------------

             --------------------
authority  to  execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform its obligations
hereunder.  The  execution,  delivery  and  performance  by  the Company of this
Agreement  and  the  consummation  of  the transactions contemplated hereby have
been,  or  prior to the Closing Date will have been, duly and validly authorized
by  all  necessary  corporate  action  on  its  part.

     (ii)     ENFORCEABILITY. This Agreement constitutes the valid,  legal  and
              --------------
binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its
terms,  except  as  the  enforcement  thereof  may  be  limited  by  applicable
bankruptcy,  insolvency,  reorganization,  moratorium  or similar laws affecting
creditors'  rights  generally  and  subject  to  general  equitable  principles.

(d)     NO  CONFLICT.  Neither  the execution or delivery by the Company of this
        ------------
Agreement, nor the performance and consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby,  nor  compliance  by it with the terms, conditions and provisions hereof
conflicts  with  or  results  in or gives rise to (with or without the giving of
notice  or  the  lapse  of  time  or both) a breach or violation of, or default,
termination,  forfeiture  or  acceleration  or  obligations  under, any terms or
provisions  of  (1)  its  constitutional  documents,  (2)  any  statute, rule or
regulations, or any judicial, governmental, regulatory or administrative decree,

                                        7

        -----------------------------------
reports,  forms,  statements and other documents required to be filed by it with
the  Commission  since April 16, 2001 (collectively, the "SEC Reports").  All of
                                                          -----------
the  SEC  Reports,  as  of  their  respective  dates (and, as of the date of any
amendment  to  such  SEC  Reports), complied as to form in all material respects
with  the  applicable  requirements  of  the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended,  and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.  None of the SEC
Reports  as of their respective dates (and, if amended or superceded by a filing
prior to the date of this Agreement, then on the date of such filing), contained
or  will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or will omit
to  state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements  therein,  in  light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not  misleading.  Each of the financial statements (including the related notes)
included  in  the  SEC  Reports  presents  fairly, in all material respects, the
consolidated  financial position and consolidated results of operations and cash
flows  of  the  Company  and  its consolidated subsidiaries as of the respective
dates  or  for  the  respective period set forth therein, all in conformity with
GAAP  consistently applied during the periods involved except as otherwise noted
therein, and subject, in the case of the unaudited interim financial statements,
to  the  absence of notes and normal year-end adjustments that have not been and
are  not  expected  to  be  material  in  amount.

(f)     THE SHARES.  The Common Shares to be issued to Purchaser as contemplated
        ----------

        -----------------------------------------------

     (i)     LITIGATION.  Except as disclosed in the SEC Reports, the Company is

not  a  party  to  any  litigation,  claim,  arbitration, investigation or other
proceeding  nor,  to  the  best  knowledge  of  the  Company,  is there any such
litigation,  claim,  arbitration,  investigation  or other proceeding threatened
against the Company which, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be
expected  to have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition
or  results  of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole,
or  seeking  to  enjoin or prohibit any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.

     (ii)     COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS.  To the best knowledge of the
              -------------------------------
Company,  the Company has complied and is in compliance in all material respects

registration  statement  on  Form  SB-2 (or such other form as may be available)
(the  "Registration Statement") with respect to the Common Shares (including, to
       ----------------------
the  extent  that the Reset Option has not been exercised by Purchaser, a number
of  shares  of Common Stock equal to an additional 50% of the Common Shares then
comprising  the  Designated  Units and the Units purchased by investors who have
executed  similar  subscription  agreements,  which  the  Company  acknowledges
represents a good faith estimate of the maximum number of shares of Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of the Reset Option and the reset options granted to such
other  investors)  and  Warrant  Shares and the common shares and warrant shares
comprising  units purchased by such other investors (collectively, the "Shares")
                                                                        ------
and  to  effect  registration (including the execution of an undertaking to file
post-effective  amendments,  appropriate  qualifications under blue sky or other
state  securities  laws  and  appropriate compliance with applicable regulations
issued  under  the  Securities  Act)  as would permit or facilitate the sale and
distribution  of  all  of  such  Shares  by  Purchaser  and such other investors
(collectively,  the  "Selling Stockholders") from time to time during the period
provided for in Section 13(b) on the over-the-counter market, in other permitted
public  sales  or  in  privately negotiated transactions; provided, however, the
Company  shall  not  be  obligated  to  take  any  action  to  effect  any  such
registration,  qualification  or  compliance  pursuant  to  this  Section in any
particular  jurisdiction  in  which  the  Company would be required to execute a
general  consent  to  service  of  process  in  effecting  such  registration,
qualification  or compliance unless the Company is already subject to service in
such  jurisdiction  and  except  as  may  be  required  by  the  Securities Act.

     (ii)     FAILURE  TO FILE REGISTRATION STATEMENT.  If (A) the Company shall
             ---------------------------------------
fail  to  file  the  Registration  Statement  by  June  15,  2002,  or  (B)  the
Registration  Statement  is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior
to 90 days after the Registration Statement has been filed, the Company will pay
to Purchaser, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, a cash amount equal to
2%  of  the  total  purchase  price  of  the  Designated  Units set forth on the
signature page hereto for each 30-day period (or portion thereof) after June 15,
2002  or  the  end  of the aforementioned 90 days, as the case may be; provided,
however,  that  there  shall  be  excluded from such period any delays which are
attributable to changes required by Purchaser in the Registration Statement with
respect  to  information  relating  to  Purchaser, including without limitation,
changes  to  the plan of distribution, or to the failure of Purchaser to conduct
its  review  of  the  Registration  Statement  in  a reasonable promptly manner.

     (iii)     ADDITIONAL  REGISTRATION.
               ------------------------

          (A)     ADDITIONAL  REGISTRATION.  To  the extent that the number of
                  ------------------------
     Shares included in the Registration Statement shall not be sufficient cover
     the  additional  Common  Shares issuable upon exercise of the Reset Option,
     the Company will prepare and, within 90 days after exercise by Purchaser of

                                        9
<PAGE>
     the  Reset  Option (the "Additional Filing Date"), file with the Commission
     an  additional  registration  statement on Form SB-2 (or such other form as
     may be available) (the "Additional Registration Statement") with respect to
     such  Common  Shares and such additional shares of Common Stock issuable to
     other  Selling  Stockholders who have exercised their reset option pursuant
     to  similar subscription agreements (the "Additional Shares") and to effect
     registration  (including  the  execution  of  an  undertaking  to  file
     post-effective  amendments,  appropriate  qualifications  under blue sky or
     other  state  securities  laws  and  appropriate compliance with applicable
     regulations  issued under the Securities Act) as would permit or facilitate
     the sale and distribution of all of such shares by Purchaser and such other
     Selling  Stockholders  from  time to time during the period provided for in
     Section  13(b)  on  the  over-the-counter market, in other permitted public
     sales  or  in  privately  negotiated  transactions,  and,  for  purposes of
     Sections  13(b),  13(c) and 13(d) of this Agreement, the term "Registration
     Statement"  shall  mean  the Additional Registration Statement and the term
     "Shares"  shall  mean the Additional Shares; provided, however, the Company
     shall  not be obligated to take any action to effect any such registration,
     qualification  or  compliance  pursuant  to  this Section in any particular
     jurisdiction  in  which  the Company would be required to execute a general
     consent to service of process in effecting such registration, qualification
     or  compliance  unless  the  Company  is already subject to service in such
     jurisdiction  and  except  as  may  be  required  by  the  Securities  Act.

          (B)     FAILURE TO  FILE ADDITIONAL REGISTRATION STATEMENT. If (A) the
                  --------------------------------------------------
     Company  shall  fail  to  file the Additional Registration Statement by the
     Additional Filing Date, or (B) the Additional Registration Statement is not
     declared  effective  by  the  Commission  on  or prior to 90 days after the
     Additional  Registration  Statement has been filed, the Company will pay to
     Purchaser,  as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, a cash amount equal
     to  2% of the total purchase price of the Designated Units set forth on the
     signature page hereto for each 30-day period (or portion thereof) after the
     Additional  Filing  Date  or  the end of the aforementioned 90 days, as the
     case  may  be;  provided,  however,  that there shall be excluded from such
     period  any  delays which are attributable to changes required by Purchaser
     in  the  Additional  Registration  Statement  with  respect  to information
     relating to Purchaser, including without limitation, changes to the plan of
     distribution,  or  to the failure of Purchaser to conduct its review of the
     Additional  Registration  Statement  in  a  reasonable  promptly  manner.

(b)     REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.   Subject to the provisions of this Section 13,
        -----------------------
the  Company  shall:

     (i)     Use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Registration Statement
to  become  and  remain  effective  on  or before the 90th day after the date of
filing  thereof  with the Commission (and if not effective by such date, as soon
as  possible  thereafter),  provided  the  Company  has timely received from the
Selling  Stockholder  the information necessary to such effectiveness, and, upon
such  effectiveness, to cause the Registration Statement to remain effective for
a  period (the "Selling Period") ending at the earlier of (A) 18 months from the
effective  date  of the Registration Statement, or (B) until all the Shares have
been  sold  pursuant  thereto.

                                       10
<PAGE>
     (ii)     Furnish each Selling Stockholder such number  of  copies  of  the
prospectus  contained  in  the registration statement filed under the Securities
Act  (including each preliminary prospectus) in conformity with the requirements
of  the Securities Act, and such other documents as the Selling Stockholders may
reasonably  request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Shares held by
them  which  is  covered  by  the  registration  statement;  and

     (iii)     Notify each Selling Stockholder, at any  time  when  a prospectus
relating to such Shares is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of
the  happening  of  any  event  as  a  result  of  which  the  prospectus in the
registration  statement,  as  then  in effect, includes an untrue statement of a
material  fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein
or  necessary  to make the statements therein not misleading, and at the request
of the Selling Stockholders prepare and furnish to them any reasonable number of
copies  of any supplement to or amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary
so  that,  as  thereafter delivered, such prospectus shall not include an untrue
statement  of  a  material  fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated  therein  or  necessary  to  make  the statements therein not misleading.

(c)     SELLING  EXPENSES.
        -----------------

     (i)     Except  as  otherwise  set  forth  in  subsection  (ii) below or as
required  by  the Commission or any other federal or state regulatory authority,

connection  with  the  Registration  Statement:

          (A)     The fees and disbursements of any separate counsel retained by
     Purchaser;  in excess of Purchaser's pro rata portion of the aggregate fees
     and  disbursements  of  such separate counsel to be borne by the Company as
     provided  in  subsection  (i)  above;

          (B)     Any underwriting discounts, commissions  and expenses relating
     to  the  Shares  sold  by  Purchaser;  and

          (C)     Any taxes payable with respect to the transfer  by  Purchaser.

(d)     INDEMNIFICATION;  CONTRIBUTION.
        ------------------------------

     (i)     INDEMNIFICATION  BY  THE  COMPANY.  The Company agrees to indemnify
             ---------------------------------
and  hold  harmless,  to  the  fullest  extent  permitted by law, Purchaser, its
officers,  directors  and each person who controls Purchaser (within the meaning
of  the  Securities  Act),  against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
expenses  (including  reasonable  attorneys'  fees  and  costs of investigation)
arising  out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material
fact  contained  in  the  Registration  Statement,  any  amendment or supplement
thereto,  any  prospectus  or  preliminary  prospectus  included  therein or any
omission  or  alleged  omission  to state therein a material fact required to be

                                       11
<PAGE>
stated  therein  or  necessary  to  make  the statements therein not misleading,
except  insofar  as  the  same  arise  out  of or are based upon any such untrue
statement or omission based upon information with respect to Purchaser furnished
in  writing  to  the  Company  by  or  on  behalf of Purchaser expressly for use
therein; provided that, in the event that the prospectus shall have been amended
or  supplemented  and  copies  thereof as so amended or supplemented, shall have
been  furnished  to  Purchaser  prior to the confirmation of any sales of Shares
included  in  the  Registration  Statement,  such  indemnity with respect to the
prospectus  shall  not inure to the benefit of Purchaser if the person asserting
such  loss,  claim,  damage  or  liability  and  who  purchased  the Shares from
Purchaser  did not, at or prior to the confirmation of the sale of the Shares to
such  person, receive a copy of the prospectus as so amended or supplemented and
the  untrue statement or omission of a material fact contained in the prospectus
was  corrected  in  the  prospectus  as  so  amended  or  supplemented.

     (ii)     INDEMNIFICATION BY PURCHASER.  Purchaser will furnish to the
              ----------------------------
Company  in  writing  such  information  with respect to the name and address of
Purchaser  and  such  other information as may be reasonably required for use in
connection  with  the  Registration Statement or prospectus included therein and
agrees  to  indemnify,  to  the  full  extent permitted by law, the Company, its
officers, directors and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning
of  the  Securities Act), and its agent and advisors against any losses, claims,
damages,  liabilities  and  expenses  resulting  from  any untrue statement of a
material  fact  or  any omission of a material fact required to be stated in the
Registration  Statement  or prospectus included therein or any amendment thereof
or  supplement  thereto  or  necessary  to  make  the  statements  therein  not
misleading,  to  the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue or alleged
untrue statement is contained in or such omission or alleged omission relates to
any  information  with respect to Purchaser so furnished in writing by Purchaser
specifically  for inclusion in the Registration Statement or prospectus included
therein;  provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be liable in any such case
to  the  extent  that  prior  to  the  filing  of  the Registration Statement or
prospectus  included  therein  or  amendment  thereof  or  supplement  thereto,
Purchaser  has furnished in writing to the Company information expressly for use
in  the  Registration  Statement  or  prospectus  or  any  amendment  thereof or
supplement thereto which corrected or made not misleading information previously
furnished to the Company. In no event shall the liability of Purchaser hereunder
be  greater in amount than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by it upon
the  sale  of  the  Shares  giving  rise  to  such  indemnification  obligation.

     (iii)     CONDUCT OF INDEMNIFICATION PROCEEDINGS.  Any person entitled  to
               --------------------------------------
indemnification  hereunder  agrees  to  give  prompt  written  notice  to  the
indemnifying party after the receipt by such person of any written notice of the
commencement  of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation or threat thereof
made in writing for which such person will claim indemnification or contribution
pursuant to the provisions hereof and, unless in the judgment of counsel of such
indemnified  party  a  conflict  of  interest may exist between such indemnified
party  and  the  indemnifying  party  with  respect  to  such  claim, permit the
indemnifying  party  to  assume  the defense of such claim.  Whether or not such
defense is assumed by the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will not be
subject  to  any liability for any settlement made without its consent (but such
consent  will not be unreasonably withheld).  No indemnifying party will consent
to  entry  of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as
an  unconditional  term  thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such

                                       12
<PAGE>
indemnified  party  of  a release from all liability in respect of such claim or
litigation.  If  the  indemnifying  party  is not entitled to, or elects not to,
assume  the  defense  of  a  claim, it will not be obligated to pay the fees and
expenses  of  more  than one counsel (plus such local counsel, if any, as may be
reasonably  required  in other jurisdictions) with respect to such claim, unless
in  the  judgment  of  any  indemnified  party  a conflict of interest may exist
between  such  indemnified  party and any other of such indemnified parties with
respect  to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated
to  pay  the  fees and expenses of such additional counsel or counsels.  For the
purposes  of  this  paragraph,  the  term "conflict of interest" shall mean that
there are one or more legal defenses available to the indemnified party that are
different  from  or  additional  to those available to the indemnifying party or
such  other  indemnified  parties,  as applicable, which different or additional
defenses  make  joint  representation  inappropriate.

     (iv)     CONTRIBUTION.  If the indemnification from the indemnifying  party
              ------------
provided  for herein is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect
of  any  losses,  claims,  damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein,
then  the  indemnifying  party,  in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party,
shall  contribute  to  the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a
result  of  such  losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  or  expenses  in such
proportion  as  is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying
party  and  indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in
such  losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  or expenses, as well as any other
relevant  equitable  considerations.  The  relative  fault  of such indemnifying
party  and  indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other
things,  whether  any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue
statement  of  a  material  fact,  has  been  made by, or relates to information
supplied  by,  such  indemnifying  party or indemnified parties, and the parties
intent,  knowledge,  access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such  action.  The  amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses,
claims,  damages,  liabilities and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to
include,  subject  to  the  limitations  set  forth  in  subsection (g) (Selling
Expenses)  above,  any  reasonable  legal  or  other fees or expenses reasonably
incurred  by  such  party  in  connection  with any investigation or proceeding.

     The  parties  hereto  agree  that  it  would  not  be just and equitable if
contribution  pursuant to this subsection were determined by pro rata allocation
or  by  any  other  method  of  allocation  which  does  not take account of the
equitable  considerations  referred  to  in the immediately preceding paragraph.
Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  this  subsection,  Purchaser  shall not be
required  to  contribute  any  amount in excess of the amount by which the total
price  at  which  the Shares of Purchaser were offered to the public exceeds the
amount  of  any  damages  which  Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by
reason  of  such  untrue  statement or omission.  No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation  (within  the  meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act)
shall  be  entitled  to  contribution from any person who was not guilty of such
fraudulent  misrepresentation.

     (v)     If  indemnification  is  available  under  this subsection (d), the
indemnifying  parties  shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent
provided  in subsection (d)(i)  and (d)(ii) without regard to the relative fault
of  said  indemnifying  party  or  indemnified  party  or  any  other  equitable
consideration  provided  for  in  subsection  (d)(iv).

                                       13

14.     LEGENDS.  Purchaser agrees that until such time as the Common Shares and
        -------
Warrant  Shares  have  been  registered under the Securities Act as contemplated
hereby,  the certificates representing the Common Shares and Warrants comprising
the  Designated  Units  and  the Warrant Shares shall bear the legends set forth
below,  in  addition  to any other legends that may be imposed thereon which, in
the  reasonable  opinion of the Company's counsel, may be required by applicable
securities  laws:

     THE  SECURITIES  REPRESENTED  BY  THIS  CERTIFICIATE  HAVE  NOT  BEEN
     REGISTERED  UNDER  THE  SECURITIES  ACT  OF  1933,  AS  AMENDED  (THE
     "SECURITIES  ACT"), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE
     OFFERED,  SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF
     AN  EFFECTIVE  REGISTRATION  STATEMENT  FOR  SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE
     SECURITIES  ACT  AND  QUALIFICATION  UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
     LAWS  OR  AN  OPINION  OF  COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT AN
     EXEMPTION  FROM  SUCH  REGISTRATION  IS  AVAILABLE.

15.     VOLUME  LOCK-UP.  Notwithstanding  anything  in  this  Agreement  to the
        ---------------
contrary, if on any trading day after the Registration Statement shall have been
declared  effective by the Commission and shall be effective the highest Closing
Bid  Price  of  the Common Stock is less than $0.95, Purchaser shall not sell or
otherwise dispose of Common Shares or Warrant Shares in excess of 8% of the then
reported  trading volume for that trading day on the following trading day.  The
Company  may  impose  stop-transfer instructions with respect to such securities
consistent  with  the  foregoing.

16.     NO  FINDERS.  Except  as previously disclosed to the Company in writing,
        -----------
Purchaser acknowledges that no finder, broker or other agent is acting on behalf
of Purchaser in connection with this subscription and hereby agrees to indemnify
and  to  hold  the Company harmless from any claim or other liability (including

other  agent  (other  than  as  so  disclosed)  purporting  to  act on behalf of
Purchaser  for  any fees or other payments in connection with this subscription.

17.     RELIANCE.  Purchaser  understands  and  acknowledges that the Company is
        --------
relying  on  the  accuracy  of  the  representations and warranties of Purchaser
contained herein to establish compliance with federal and state securities laws.
If,  prior to the sale of any Designated Units to Purchaser, there is a material
change  in  Purchaser's  investment  intention  as expressed herein, or if there
occurs any change which would make either the representations or warranties made
by  Purchaser  herein  or  the information provided by Purchaser in the Investor
Questionnaire  materially  untrue or misleading, Purchaser agrees to immediately
so notify the Company, and any prior acceptance of the subscription of Purchaser
shall  be  voidable  at  the  option  of  the  Company.

18.     INDEMNIFICATION.  Purchaser  hereby  indemnifies  and holds harmless the
        ---------------
Company and its officers, directors, stockholders, employees, agents and control
persons  of  any  such  entity, as the case may be, from and against any and all
damages  suffered  and  liabilities  incurred by any of them (including costs of

                                       14
<PAGE>
investigation and defense, attorneys' fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid in
settlement)  arising  out  of  any  inaccuracy in, or breach of, the agreements,
representations,  covenants  and  warranties  made  by  Purchaser  herein.

19.     JOINT  REPRESENTATION.  If  more  than  one  person  is  signing  this
        ---------------------
Agreement,  each  representation,  warranty and agreement made herein shall be a
joint  and  several  representation,  warranty and agreement of each person.  If
Purchaser  is  purchasing  the  Designated  Units  subscribed  for  hereby  in a
fiduciary  capacity,  the above representations, warranties and agreements shall
be  deemed  to  have  been  made  on  behalf  of  the person or persons for whom
Purchaser  is  so  purchasing.

20.     NO  CANCELLATION.  Purchaser  hereby  acknowledges  and  agrees  that
        ----------------
Purchaser  is  not  entitled to cancel, terminate or revoke this subscription or
any  agreements of Purchaser hereunder and that such subscription and agreements
shall  survive  the  death  or  disability  of  Purchaser.

warranty  set forth in this Agreement.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the

rights  or  remedies  that  any  party  may  otherwise have at law or in equity.

(f)     ARBITRATION.  Any  dispute  between  the  parties  arising  out  of this
        -----------
Agreement  shall  be  submitted  to final and binding arbitration in the City of

THE  SECURITIES  REPRESENTED  BY THIS CERTIFICATE OR ISSUABLE HEREUNDER HAVE NOT
BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR QUALIFIED UNDER
ANY  STATE  SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, ASSIGNED
OR  HYPOTHECATED  UNLESS THERE IS AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH
ACT  OR  LAWS  COVERING  SUCH  SECURITIES,  OR THE HOLDER RECEIVES AN OPINION OF
COUNSEL,  SATISFACTORY  TO THE COMPANY, STATING THAT SUCH OFFER, SALE, TRANSFER,
ASSIGNMENT  OR  HYPOTHECATION  IS  EXEMPT  FROM  THE REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS
DELIVERY  REQUIREMENTS  OF  SUCH  ACT  AND  THE QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS UNDER
APPLICABLE  STATE  LAW.

                        WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

     FOR  VALUE  RECEIVED,  AMNIS  SYSTEMS  INC.,  a  Delaware  corporation (the
"Company"),  hereby  grants  to  _________________  (the  "Holder") the right to
purchase  from  the  Company  up  to  ______________________ (_________) shares,
subject  to  adjustment  as set forth herein, of the Common Stock of the Company
(the  "Warrant  Shares"),  subject  to  the  following  terms  and  conditions:

     1.     Term.  This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in part at any time
or  from  time  to  time until 5:00 p.m., California time on February ____, 2003
(the  "Exercise  Period").

     2.     Exercise  Price.  The purchase price for each Warrant Share shall be
ninety  cents  ($0.90),  subject to adjustment as set forth herein (the "Warrant
Exercise  Price").

     3.     Exercise  of  Warrant.  This Warrant may be exercised in whole or in
part,  but  not for less than five hundred (500) Warrant Shares, at any time and
from time to time during the Exercise Period by surrender of this Warrant to the
Company  at  its principal office (or such other office or agency of the Company
as  it  may  designate  by notice in writing to the Holder at the address of the
Holder  appearing on the books of the Company) together with the Exercise Notice
annexed  hereto duly completed and executed on behalf of the Holder, accompanied
by  payment  in  full  of  the  aggregate  Warrant Exercise Price in immediately
available  funds.  The  Holder  shall  be deemed the record owner of the Warrant
Shares  purchased  hereunder as of and from the close of business on the date on
which  this  Warrant  shall have been surrendered as aforesaid, and certificates
for  such  Warrant  Shares  shall  be  delivered  to  the Holder within five (5)
business  days  after  such  exercise  date.

     4.     Fractional Interest.  The Company shall not be required to issue any
fractional  shares  on  the  exercise  of  this  Warrant.

                                       19
<PAGE>
     5.     Warrant Confers No Rights of Stockholder.  The Holder shall not have
any  rights  as  a stockholder of the Company with respect to any Warrant Shares
prior to actual exercise of this Warrant and the purchase of the Warrant Shares.

          (a)     Investment  Representation.  Neither  this  Warrant  nor  the
Warrant  Shares  issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant have been registered
under  the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or under
any  applicable state securities laws.  The Holder acknowledges by acceptance of
this Warrant that (a) it has acquired this Warrant for investment and not with a
view  toward  distribution,  (b)  it  has  a  pre-existing  personal or business
relationship  with  the  Company  or its executive officers, or by reason of its
business  or  financial  experience  it  has  the  capacity  to  protect its own
interests  in  connection  with  the  transaction,  and  (c) it is an accredited
investor  as  that  term  is  defined  in  Regulation  D  promulgated  under the
Securities  Act.  The  Holder  agrees that until such time as the Warrant Shares
have  been registered under the Securities Act, all Warrant Shares issuable upon
exercise  of this Warrant will be acquired for investment and not with a view to
distribution  thereof,  and  acknowledges that to the extent such Warrant Shares
have  not  been  registered  under  the  Securities  Act  and  applicable  state
securities  laws,  that  such  Warrant  Shares  may have to be held indefinitely
unless  they  are subsequently registered under the Securities Act and qualified
under  applicable  state  securities  laws  or,  based  on an opinion of counsel
reasonably  satisfactory to the Company, an exemption from such registration and
qualification  is  available.  The Holder, by acceptance hereof, consents to the
placement of the following or similar legend (as well as any legends required by
applicable  laws)  on  each certificate to be issued to the Holder in connection
with  the  issuance  of  such  Warrant  Shares:

     THE  SECURITIES  REPRESENTED  BY  THIS  CERTIFICATE  HAVE  NOT  BEEN
     REGISTERED  UNDER  THE  SECURITIES  ACT  OF  1933,  AS  AMENDED  (THE
     "SECURITIES  ACT"), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND MAY NOT BE
     OFFERED,  SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED IN THE ABSENCE OF
     AN  EFFECTIVE  REGISTRATION  STATEMENT  FOR  SUCH SECURITIES UNDER THE
     SECURITIES  ACT  AND  QUALIFICATION  UNDER APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES
     LAWS  OR  AN  OPINION  OF  COUNSEL SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT AN
     EXEMPTION  FROM  SUCH  REGISTRATION  IS  AVAILABLE.

     6.     Transfers. Subject to compliance with applicable  federal  and state
securities laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable in whole
or  in  part  by  the  Holder to any person or entity upon written notice to the
Company.  The  transfer  shall  be  recorded  on  the  books of the Company upon
surrender  of  this  Warrant, properly endorsed, to the Company at its principal
office  (or  such  other  office or agency of the Company as it may designate by
notice  in  writing  to the Holder at the address of the Holder appearing on the
books  of  the  Company).  In the event of a partial transfer, the Company shall
issue  to  the  Holder  one  or  more  appropriate  new  warrants.

     7.     Reservation  of  Warrant  Shares.  The  Company  agrees at all times
during  the  Exercise  Period to have authorized and reserved, for the exclusive
purpose  of  issuance  and  delivery upon exercise of this Warrant, a sufficient
number  of  shares of its Common Stock to provide for the exercise of the rights
represented  hereby.

     8.     Adjustment  for  Reclassification of Capital Stock.  If, at any time
during  the  Exercise  Period, the Company shall, by subdivision, combination or
reclassification  of  securities, change any of the securities to which purchase
rights under this Warrant exist under the same or different number of securities
of  any  class  or  classes, this Warrant shall thereafter entitle the Holder to
acquire  such  number  and  kind  of securities as would have been issuable as a
result  of  such  change with respect to the Warrant Shares immediately prior to
such  subdivision,  combination or reclassification.  If the Company at any time
while  this Warrant remains outstanding and unexpired shall subdivide or combine
its  Common  Stock, the Warrant Exercise Price, and the number of Warrant Shares
issuable  upon  exercise  hereof  shall  be  proportionately  adjusted.

notice  by  either  party  to  the  other  party.

     12.     Amendments; Waivers; Termination.  This Warrant and any term hereof
may  be  changed,  waived,  discharged  or  terminated  only by an instrument in
writing  signed  by  the party against which enforcement of such change, waiver,
discharge  or  termination is sought and only if supported by new consideration.

     13.     Governing  Law.  This Warrant shall be governed by and construed in
accordance  with  the  laws  of  the  State  of  Delaware.
