Notes from The Chairman Concerning ISCO Price Fluctuations

As a matter of policy, we at ISCO refrain from commenting on movements in the price of our stock. However, events yesterday were so unusual and have resulted in so many questions, that I think it is our duty to our shareholders to tell you what we know.

As best we can determine, Patrick Cox, who has been and continues to be a strong supporter of our company, was required yesterday by his publisher to cease coverage of our stock and issue a sell recommendation because he has an equity interest in a company with which we do business that could have been perceived as a conflict of interest. That has resulted in numerous negative comments on investor message boards that referred to the sell recommendation without giving the background or a full explanation. As a result, I felt it was important that we put the day's events into proper context. The following are what I believe to be the relevant excerpts from Patrick's article:

As you know, I've been a huge promoter of International Stem Cell Corp.'s (OTCBB: ISCO) parthenogenic stem cell technology. I've not only told you about the company, but I appeared on John Mauldin's podcast show with ISCO board chairman Ken Aldrich about six months ago. Aldrich and Mauldin subsequently became friends and found that their organizations were a perfect fit for marketing ISCO's cosmeceutical skin care product.

John Mauldin asked me to be a part of that organization. We looked hard at Agora Financial's policies as well as applicable SEC regulations and concluded that there would be no conflict of interest because the position gave me no direct interest in ISCO or its stock price....

My publisher, however, has grown increasingly uncomfortable with this arrangement. The reason is not that Agora Financial believes that there would be an actual conflict of interest. Rather, it is that it might be perceived as one by some, in particular SEC lawyers....

My publisher's trading policy's aim, however, is to keep me purely objective and disinterested. This policy is debatable, but I respect it. My only option, therefore, is to issue a sell order or face the wrath of a disappointed spouse.

You can probably guess what that means. I'm going to have to issue a sell order.

Patrick followed that with a supplement, in which he said, in part,

Just to re-iterate, now that I've seen the price action from this afternoon's sell alert, I'm not parting with the shares of International Stem Cell Corp. (OTCBB: ISCO) because I believe they are a bad investment (my feelings, as you probably know, are quite the opposite)...ISCO still has the transformational potential that I've told you about. The only real change is that I won't be able to update you from here on out -- due to an over abundance of caution from my publisher.

Obviously, we can't know for certain if these articles caused the price movement yesterday, but we believe they were a major factor. Moreover, the comments and the response of investors to them are beyond our control, but we do want to reassure all interested parties that there is no information of which we are aware to justify the price fluctuation that occurred yesterday.

I hope this will prove helpful.

Sincerely,

Ken Aldrich

Chairman

International Stem Cell Corporation Announces Completion of Its First Manufacturing Run of Lifeline Skin Care's Stem Cell-Based Skin Rejuvenation...

International Stem Cell Corporation Announces Completion of Its First Manufacturing Run of Lifeline Skin Care's Stem Cell-Based Skin Rejuvenation Products

International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCBB:ISCO), www.internationalstemcell.com, announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Lifeline Skin Care, Inc., in partnership with an experienced OTC drug licensed manufacturer of cosmetic products, successfully manufactured its first scaled-up lots of stem cell-based skin creams, confirming that these unique products can be made in larger batch quantities and continue to meet Lifeline's high quality standards. This marks an important milestone in proving that two new technologies, the derivation of human parthenogenetic stem cells, and the packaging and delivery of critical anti-aging ingredients, including those derived from stem cells, can be scaled-up into a level of production suitable to meet commercial levels of demand.

Lifeline Skin Care's product development scientists have combined human parthenogenetic stem cell technology with the latest discoveries in skin rejuvenation to create its unique day and night skin care creams. ISCO's scientists were the first to intentionally create human parthenogenetic stem cells from unfertilized human eggs, thus avoiding the ethical concerns of harming a viable human embryo. ISCO's therapeutic research team discovered that such cells had qualities that made them suitable for skin care products, thus leading to the formation of ISCO's wholly-owned subsidiary, Lifeline Skin Care. Valuable assistance from ISCO's other wholly-owned subsidiary, Lifeline Cell Technology, allowed the rapid transition and scale-up of a research-based discovery into a quality-controlled commercial product. Lifeline Cell Technology is staffed with experts in the manufacture and quality control of cell based products.

According to Dr. Ruslan Semechkin, CEO of Lifeline Skin Care, "Although it will be necessary to continue to develop new technologies to further scale-up the production of our new skin care products, this first successful manufacturing run proves that the team of ISCO's therapeutic research scientists, in combination with Lifeline Skin Care's product development expertise and Lifeline Cell Technology's manufacturing and quality control expertise, has the ability to quickly develop and commercialize new products using stem cell technologies."

International Stem Cell Corporation Announces Launch Plans for New Skin Care Products

International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCBB:ISCO), www.internationalstemcell.com, and a new firm to be formed by John Mauldin announced today the formation of a new joint marketing venture to launch a line of skin care products developed by ISCO's wholly owned subsidiary, Lifeline Skin Care, Inc. ('LSC'). Mauldin, a significant marketing talent, is president of Millennium Wave Investments and author of an economic letter that goes to over 1.5 million readers.

Lifeline Skin Care's products have been in active development for well over a year and involve a unique high-technology, patent pending formulation for skin rejuvenation crèmes, developed using ISCO's proprietary 'parthenogenetic' stem cells that do not require the use of fertilized embryos. The product was discovered during ISCO's therapeutic stem cell research that revealed the stem cell's potential applications in skin cell rejuvenation. Part of the discovery included developing a way to surround the proteins from the stem cells with a nanovesicle allowing for extended shelf life and enhanced delivery of the product to the skin. Independent third party testing indicates that the crèmes (one for day and one for nighttime application) have significant positive effects on the look and feel of the skin.

'This represents an amazing leap forward in the combination of a variety of cutting edge technologies to yield products that have the potential to find significant consumer acceptance. The anti-aging market is extremely large, and Lifeline Skin Care is offering something completely new and different. We are excited about the prospects,' said Kenneth Aldrich, Chairman of ISCO.

Because the LSC products involve a unique extract from living parthenogenetic stem cells, rather than 'off the shelf' ingredients used by most skin care products, it takes additional time to manufacture the products. Building inventory in advance of demand is critical to avoid disappointing customers.

ISCO and LSC believe the collaboration with Mauldin will provide a much broader potential customer base and a much lower market cost per customer than the alternative marketing programs previously considered. As a result, LSC has revised its previously announced marketing launch plans to be certain that it will have adequate product on hand to meet initial demand.

The initial product offering will be to ISCO's own database of investors and followers, originally set to launch October and now scheduled for November to coordinate with Mauldin's timetable. That will be followed with an offering to Mauldin's extensive subscription base and to a select market of other potential purchasers.

Only after these initial offerings have been completed, involving a total of over 1.5 million potential customers, will more broad scale product offerings be made. 'This will enable us to measure probable future demand, assure our loyal investors and Mauldin's subscribers and affiliates that they will be able to purchase all the products they require while allowing LSC to build an inventory of the unique stem cell extract that is at the heart of this new product,' said Dr. Ruslan Semechkin, CEO of Lifeline Skin Care.

'We are extraordinarily excited to be able to offer LSC's products to our loyal client base in a way that assures they will be able to obtain the product they want, plus monthly refills as required, in spite of the fact that LSC's products are unique and require time and care by many people to bring to market,' said John Mauldin, founder and Chairman of Millennium. 'This is a truly revolutionary approach to skin care. Early test results are very promising and I am excited to be associated with a company of the scientific reputation of International Stem Cell Corporation and their world-renowned staff.'

ISCO to Present Data on Progress of Human Parthenogenetic Stem Cell Differentiation into Functional Liver Cells at the Annual Meeting...

ISCO to Present Data on Progress of Human Parthenogenetic Stem Cell Differentiation into Functional Liver Cells at the Annual Meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases

International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCBB:ISCO), www.internationalstemcell.com, will present data on its progress toward producing human liver cells from immune-matched patient-specific parthenogenetic stem cells at The Liver Meeting^®, the 61^st Annual Meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (ASSLD), in Boston, MA from October 29 – November 2, 2010.

ISCO will present to a number of the world's leading liver specialists, a new method of obtaining highly enriched cultures of differentiated cells from pluripotent human stem cells, based on a natural physiological process. A follow-on presentation will demonstrate that differentiation protocols previously developed for human embryonic stem cells can, with some modification, be effectively applied to human parthenogenetic stem cells. These findings will be presented as part of the 'Stem Cell Poster Session' on November 1, 2010, and are entitled, 'Hepatocyte-like cells derived from patient-specific human parthenogenetic stem cells possess functions of mature human hepatocytes including P450 activity" and, "Derivation of highly enriched populations of hepatocytes from various types of human pluripotent stem cells using a novel physiological method."

Commenting on these presentations, ISCO's CEO, Andrey Semechkin, PhD, said: "We are pleased our research team is able to present and discuss these important findings at this highly prestigious meeting of The American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, one of the leading organizations in the U.S. specializing in the health of the liver and attended by more than 7,500 physicians and scientists."

ISCO's Director of Research and Therapeutic Development, Nikolay Turovets, PhD, stated, "Presenting these new discoveries at this meeting demonstrates the progress we have made towards producing hepatic cells using our parthenotes, and form part of our ongoing efforts to develop and publicize the unique benefits of our human parthenogenetic stem cell platform to the scientific community. Over the past year, our research group has also presented data to the International Society for Stem Cell Research (ISSCR), the 8th Annual Meeting and the Human SCNT Workshop conducted by the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) and the Medical Research Council (MRC)".

In addition, ISCO announced today the signing of an agreement with Explora BioLabs, a leading California-based CRO specializing in conducting high-quality pre-clinical in vivo studies. Based on the results presented at this conference, ISCO will be initiating a series of pre-clinical animal experiments to study the engraftment and in vivo maturation of these cells.

ISCO's Vice President, Simon Craw, PhD, said: "Demonstrating that our human parthenogenetic stem cells can truly differentiate into mature cells, as well as the initiation of these animal studies represents important achievements towards demonstrating the validity of creating a bank of immune-matched human pluripotent stem cells and their therapeutic derivatives that can be used in clinical studies and, ultimately, be a valuable health resource for the growing field of regenerative medicine."

International Stem Cell Corporation and Insight Bioventures India Structure Indian Affiliate to Develop Stem Cell-Based Eye Care Therapeutics...

International Stem Cell Corporation and Insight Bioventures India Structure Indian Affiliate to Develop Stem Cell-Based Eye Care Therapeutics for India and Produce Research Products for Asia

International Stem Cell Corporation (OTCBB: ISCO), www.internationalstemcell.com, and Insight Bioventures India Private Limited (IBVI), (www.insightbioventures.in) today announced that they have agreed on financial and structural terms for establishment of an Indian affiliate of ISCO (ISCO India). This is an important milestone in ISCO and IBVI's goal to facilitate development and commercialization of ISCO's stem-cell derived corneal tissue, CytoCor™, and retinal cells, CytoRet™, for treatment of blindness and severe vision impairment as well as cell systems for drug screening in India and establish a manufacturing base for ISCO's Lifeline Cell Technology^® (Lifeline) brand of cell culture media for commercialization throughout Asia.

IBVI is an experienced biomedical business developer that facilitated the earliest cell therapy guidelines with the regulatory agencies in India and is well connected with Indian research and clinical centers, corporations and government. IBVI has now partnered with MARG Group (www.marggroup.com), one of India's fastest-growing infrastructure developers with interest in ports, airports, power plants, commercial spaces, special export zones and other integrated infrastructures, to form 'Insight-MARG Biofund' (Biofund). The MARG Group is the lead facilitator of Biofund, the largest of its nature in India so far and with great possibility for being complemented by Indian government grants.

ISCO is a public US biopharmaceutical company that has pioneered the creation of a new class of stem cells, 'human parthenogenetic stem cells', with broad therapeutic application potential and ability to form non-rejected, immune matched therapeutic cells for millions of people. Two ISCO therapeutic programs from this platform are CytoCor and CytoRet that offer first-in-class opportunities to treat diseases in the front and the back of the eye where surgery and traditional small molecule and protein therapeutics are not options. ISCO also markets and sells cell culture research products through its Lifeline affiliate and international distributors, including in Asia. Lifeline is interested in leveraging its expertise to develop live human cell systems for drug screening in India.

G.R.K. Reddy, MARG Group's founder and chairman, says, 'MARG Group and IBVI have formed Biofund to leverage our resources and network of cutting-edge research and clinical institutes, corporate entities and government agencies in India. We believe ISCO India's unique combination of novel therapeutics to address large unmet medical needs and current and near-term research product businesses will be a first successful Biofund investment and set the stage for subsequent ventures.'

The agreed financial and structural terms will enable formation of ISCO India as a majority-owned Indian affiliate of ISCO, initially with laboratories in India's first clinical research facility (CRF) for stem cells and regenerative medicine in Hyderabad with the intent to relocate to India's first platinum-rated research center, MARG Science Park (www.margsciencepark.com), in Chennai. The park is a member of International Association of Sciences Parks (IASP) and has established networking and alliances with renowned institutes and organizations. The affiliate will be managed jointly by a team of experienced managers in India and ISCO executives.

ISCO expects that manufacturing of Lifeline media products and shipping of cell products from this central Indian base will be established to supply the growing network of Lifeline's Asian distributors with high-quality products in a cost-efficient fashion. In parallel, ISCO India intends to explore development of Lifeline cell systems for drug screening in India. On the therapeutic side, ISCO India will leverage the access to leading eye care researchers, patients and regulatory agencies in India and advance the CytoCor and CytoRet cellular ophthalmology programs towards the clinic and through safety-efficacy trials.

Central to the operation will be continued collaboration with the ophthalmology scientists and clinicians at Sankara Nethralaya (www.sankaranethralaya.org) in Chennai established last spring. ISCO India will also collaborate with the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB, www.ccmb.res.in) in Hyderabad that was instrumental in the establishment of the CRF and will be a joint CRF tenant with ISCO India. Both institutions are respected worldwide for their research in cellular science and therapy.

According to Dr. Jayaraman Packirisamy, Executive Director of IBVI, 'As we launch Biofund, ISCO India will provide an opportunity to address large unmet medical needs while establishing an ecosystem for the well-educated work force, world-class research and development facilities and investors in India. By combining manufacturing of existing and development of new research products with well-defined therapeutic development, we create an attractive risk-reward profile that is rarely seen in our industry.'

Brian Lundstrom, ISCO's President, adds 'ISCO wishes to collaborate with leading research and clinical groups like CCMB and Sankara Nethralaya for our cellular ophthalmology programs. Moreover, we have to manufacture our Lifeline media in Asia and ship those with our primary human cells from an Asian location in order to supply that fast-growing market with the highest possible quality products in a cost-efficient manner. The combination of well-proven Indian research and clinical institutes, world-class facilities, and funding from the Insight-MARG Biofund provides ISCO with a unique way to advance our programs and businesses without additional US capital investment or issuance of equity shares.'
