Lifeline Scientific, Inc.("LSI" or the "Company")

EXPECTED DATE OF CLOSING OF THE MERGER AND CANCELLATION OF ADMISSION OF THE COMPANY'S COMMON STOCK TO TRADING ON AIM

Lifeline Scientific, Inc. (AIM: LSIC), a leading international provider of clinical products and services in the field of transplantation, announces that the merger provided for in the agreement and plan of merger entered into with Shanghai Genext Medical Technology Co., Ltd. (the "Purchaser") and certain of its affiliates dated 1 September 2016 (the "Merger Agreement" and the transaction provided for therein, the "Merger") is expected to close on 8 December 2016.

It is therefore expected that cancellation of the admission of LSI's common stock to trading on the AIM market of the London Stock Exchange plc ("AIM") will occur with effect from 7:00 am (UK time) on 9 December 2016 (the "Cancellation Date") (the "Cancellation").

Reasons for the Cancellation

The Merger and the Cancellation (conditional upon the closing of the Merger) were both approved at a special meeting of the Company's stockholders on 6 October 2016. As required by the AIM Rules for Companies, in accordance with AIM Rule 41 the Cancellation was approved by at least 75% of the votes cast by holders of LSI common stock voting in person or by proxy at the special meeting and its preferred cancellation date must be informed to the exchange at least 20 business days prior to such date. Accordingly, the Exchange has been informed of the Cancellation Date.

Following the Merger, the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of GLS Holdings, LP ("Holdco"), an affiliate of the Purchaser that is also party to the Merger Agreement, thereby ceasing to have any public stockholders.

Effect of the Cancellation

The last day of dealing in LSI's common stock prior to their cancellation from AIM and the last day for registration of transfers of LSI's common stock will be the date of the effective time of the Merger, expected to be 8 December 2016 (the "Merger Date"). No transfers of LSI's common stock will be registered after that time and date.

All of LSI's shares of common stock and the depositary interests representing such common stock held in CREST will be cancelled with effect from the effective time of the Merger. With effect from the effective time of the Merger, Holdco will be the sole stockholder of the Company and no longer be able to buy and sell common stock of the Company on AIM or any other public stock market.
