NEW YORK -- Pluristem Life Systems, Inc. (OTCBB:PLRS), a cell therapy Company dedicated to the commercialization of stem cell products for a variety of indications, today announced that it has signed a binding term sheet with new investors for a private equity investment in the amount of $8,000,000. The first payment of funds totaling $1,250,000 has been received.

The investors will receive Pluristem restricted common stock at a price of $0.0125 per share and a warrant to purchase additional shares at an exercise price of $0.025 per share. The final agreement is expected to be completed by March 15, 2007.

Mr. Zami Aberman, CEO of Pluristem Life Systems stated: "We are delighted these new investors have shown their confidence in Pluristem. Our business strategy targets a potential $30 billion market by capitalizing on our proprietary PLacenta eXpanded (PLX I) and 3D PluriX[TM] technologies and our unique business model of "supply-on-demand" cells for a variety of clinical indications. This financing enables us to fund our activities for the next 2 years and generate the clinical data we believe will support the therapeutic effects of PLX-I in the treatment of hematological malignancies. In addition, we will explore the use of PLX-I in new clinical applications."

Pluristem developed PLX I as an allogeneic product, based on supplementing the umbilical cord blood cells with supportive cells that improve the effectiveness of engraftments and shorten recovery times. PLX I mesenchymal stem cells were proven to increase the umbilical cord blood stem cells effectiveness by 3-5 times in a pre-clinical study.

About Pluristem

Pluristem Life Systems, Inc. is life sciences driven Company that is developing and commercializing non personalized stem cell expansion technology products for the potential treatment of a variety of disorders. The Company is developing cell-based therapeutics that utilizes adult stem cells expanded in a three-dimensional proprietary bioreactor (PluriX[TM]) mimicking different naturally occurring physiological environments. Pluristem expects its first products to be cell grafts that will provide an efficient and superior alternative to the currently accepted standard procedure of bone marrow transplantation. PLX-I, Pluristem' first adult stem cell product, is intended to target a critical global shortfall of matched tissue for bone marrow transplantation since bone marrow transplantation is often the only cure for patients suffering from leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma and many other hematological diseases. The Company has made a strategic decision to work only with adult stem cells since the practical use of embryonic stem cells is severely restricted by various religious, ethical and legal considerations.
