ITEM 1. CHANGES IN CONTROL OF REGISTRANT.

(a) On March 10, 1999, the Registrant executed an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization for the Acquisition of All of the Outstanding Stock (the "Aethlon
Agreement") of Aethlon, Inc., a California corporation ("Aethlon") whereby the
Registrant acquired approximately 92% of the outstanding shares of common stock
of Aethlon in exchange for shares of Common Stock of the Registrant (the "Bishop
Shares"). Pursuant to the Aethlon Agreement, Aethlon became a majority owned
subsidiary of the Registrant.

Also on March 10, 1999, the Registrant executed an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization for the Acquisition of All of the Outstanding Stock (the "Hemex
Agreement") of Hemex, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Hemex") whereby the
Registrant acquired approximately 83% of the outstanding shares of common stock
of Hemex in exchange for Bishop Shares. Pursuant to the Hemex Agreement, Hemex
became a majority owned subsidiary of the Registrant.

The Registrant issued a total of 675,000 Bishop Shares to the former
shareholders of Aethlon and 1,123,211 Bishop Shares to the former shareholders
of Hemex as of March 10, 1999.

The Aethlon Agreement provides that the Registrant may issue an additional
58,500 Bishop Shares to acquire the remaining 8% of Aethlon. The Hemex Agreement
provides that the Registrant may issue an additional 243,000 Bishop Shares to
acquire the remaining 17% of Hemex. It is the intention of the Registrant's
management ("Management") to continue to attempt to acquire 100% of the
outstanding shares of Aethlon and Hemex on the same terms and conditions
afforded the Aethlon and Hemex shareholders who have already become parties to
the Hemex Agreement and the Aethlon Agreement, respectively (the Hemex Agreement
and the Aethlon Agreement are collectively referred to as the "Plan").

As of March 10, 1999, shareholders representing 1,798,211 of the 2,083,500
shares to be issued under the Plan (approximately 86% of the Registrant's
shareholders as of March 10, 1999) had executed and delivered the Plan. Taking
into account the 1,798,211 shares of "restricted securities" of the Registrant
issued under the Plan on March 10, 1999, there are currently 2,309,711 shares of
common stock of the Registrant issued and outstanding. Assuming that all of the
shareholders of Aethlon and Hemex enter into the Plan, there will be a total of
2,595,000 shares of Registrant outstanding.

The Plan was approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on
February 22, 1999.

The former principal shareholders of the Registrant and their percentage
of ownership of the outstanding voting securities of the Registrant prior to
the completion of the Plan were: Deborah A. Salerno, former President and
Director, owned 425,000 shares of the Registrant (83%), and Maureen Abato,
former Secretary/Treasurer and Director owned 75,000 shares of the Registrant
(15%).

The source of the consideration used by the Aethlon and Hemex shareholders
to acquire their respective interests in the Registrant was the
exchange of their outstanding shares of common stock of Aethlon and Hemex
pursuant to the Plan.

The basis of the "control" by the Aethlon and Hemex shareholders is
Stock ownership or positions held. Pursuant to the Plan, the then members of
The Board of Directors and executive officers resigned, in seriatim, and the
persons named in paragraph (b) below were designated to serve as directors and
executive officers of the Registrant, until the next respective annual
meetings of the shareholders and directors of the Registrant or until their
prior resignations or terminations.

The new members of the Board of Directors have adopted a resolution to
amend the Registrants Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the
Registrant to "Aethlon Medical, Inc." subject to shareholder approval.

(b) To the knowledge of Management and based upon a review of the
stock ledger maintained by the Registrant's transfer agent and registrar, the
following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of persons who own more
than five percent of the Registrant's common stock as of the date hereof, and
the share holdings of new Management:

shares outstanding, assuming the exercise of the 412,500 options.
(3) Includes 201,989 shares owned of record by Linda Broenniman, Mr.
Broenniman's wife.
(4) Includes 412,500 shares issuable upon the exercise of presently-exercisable
incentive stock options held by Mr. Barry. The percentage ownership is
based on 2,722,211 shares outstanding, assuming the exercise of the 412,500
options.

ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS.

See Item 1 of this Report. The consideration exchanged under the
Plan was negotiated at "arms length" between the directors and executive
officers of the Registrant and Aethlon and Hemex, respectively. The members of
the Board of Directors of the Registrant used criteria utilized in similar
proposals involving the Registrant in the past, including the relative value of
the assets of the Registrant; its present and past business operations; the
future potential of Aethlon and Hemex; its management; and the potential
benefit to the shareholders of the Registrant. The members of the Board of
Directors determined in good faith that the consideration for the exchange was
reasonable, under these circumstances.

No director, executive officer or person who may be deemed to be an
affiliate of the Registrant had any direct or indirect interest in either
Aethlon or Hemex prior to the completion of the Plan.

Business

Aethlon, incorporated in July 1998 under the laws of the State of
California, was formed for the purpose of acquiring proprietary medical device
technologies that it believes can be successfully developed and commercialized
on an international basis. Prior to entering into the Plan, Aethlon had entered
into an agreement with Hemex to provide interim funding and to acquire Hemex in
accordance with the Plan.

Hemex was incorporated in 1995 under the laws of the State of Delaware to
develop and commercialize proprietary medical devices capable of removing
harmful metal intoxicants and other contaminants from human blood. The
commercialization of the Hemex HemopurifierTM, which removes targeted metal
intoxicants in an extracorporeal (outside the body) fashion, will be the initial
focus of the Registrant.

Re: Aethlon, Inc. Letter of Intent

Dear Mr. Barry:

In accordance with our various discussions, this letter is written to
evidence our mutual intention to enter into this binding Letter of Intent (the
"Letter of Intent") pursuant to which Aethlon, Inc., a California corporation
("Aethlon") will secure the acquisition of Hemex, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Hemex"), by Bishop Equities, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Bishop"), through a
tax-free exchange of stock pursuant to Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (hereinafter referred to as the "Hemex
Reorganization"). For purposes of this Letter of Intent, Aethlon, Hemex and
Bishop are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Consolidated Companies."

Prior to entering into this Letter of Intent, Aethlon has also entered
into another, separate letter of intent with Bishop, pursuant to which Aethlon
will also be acquired by Bishop through a tax-free exchange of stock pursuant to
Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Aethlon Reorganization") immediately prior to the closing of the Hemex
Reorganization. The acquisition of Aethlon and Hemex by Bishop as contemplated
hereby are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Acquisitions."

Aethlon and Hemex agree that execution of this Letter of Intent is
subject to the following terms and conditions:

1. Aethlon will use its best efforts to raise at least $400,000.00
through a private placement of shares of Aethlon Common Stock (hereinafter
referred to as the "Aethlon Offering") and through contributions of capital to
Aethlon by its founder. The shares issued pursuant to the Aethlon Offering will
not be registered under federal or state securities laws, but

Mr. Franklyn S. Barry, Jr.
July 28, 1998
Page 2

will be issued pursuant to one or more exemptions from the registration
requirements of applicable state and/or federal securities laws. The Aethlon
Reorganization will occur as soon as practicable following the closing of the
Aethlon Offering. The parties hereto agree that Aethlon and Bishop (following
the Aethlon Reorganization) will use the proceeds from the Aethlona 0ffering, as
provided in Appendix I, to provide working capital and to prepare for and
complete an anticipated $3,000,000.00 private placement to be conducted by
Bishop after the Acquisitions. If Aethlon fails to raise at least $400,000.00 in
the Aethlon Offering and close the Aethlon Reorganization within sixty (60) days
of the Securities Registration Compliance Date, Hemex will-be entitled to
terminate this Letter of Intent without being in breach. (For purposes of this
Letter of Intent, the "Securities Registration Compliance Date" shall be the
date upon which both the Private Placement Memorandum is completed and all
necessary Blue Sky registration requirements and/or exemptions thereto are
complied with for the Aethlon Offering . At anytime after this Letter of Intent
is executed by Hemex and prior to the Hemex Reorganization, Hemex, will be able
to request that Aethlon make advances to Hemex from Aethlon's available funds
(such advances to Hemex are hereinafter referred to as "Interim Advances").
However, once Hemex requests and receives from Aethlon any Interim Advances,
Hemex will no longer be able to terminate this Letter of Intent based on
Aethlon's failure to complete the Aethlon Offering. If this Letter of Intent is
terminated for any reason, then in addition to such other remedies as the
parties may have, Aethlon may elect to convert the Interim Advances to a loan
bearing interest at ten percent (10%) per annum from the date such funds were
advanced, which loan shall immediately be due and payable to Aethlon.

2. Immediately prior to the Acquisitions, Bishop will have
outstanding no more than 511,500 shares of its Common Stock. Upon completion of
the Aethlon Offering and the Aethlon Reorganization, or at anytime after
receiving Interim Advances and being so instructed by Aethlon, Hemex will be
obligated to close the Hemex Reorganization, whereby Hemex will transfer all
outstanding shares of Hemex stock to Bishop in return for 1,350,000 shares of
Common Stock of Bishop. Prior to the Hemex Reorganization, Aethlon and Bishop
will close the Aethlon Reorganization whereby Aethlon's shareholders will
transfer all outstanding shares of Aethlon stock to Bishop in return for 825,000
shares of Common Stock of Bishop. Immediately following the Acquisitions, the
total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of Bishop will be 2,686,500,
and the former shareholders of Hemex will collectively own approximately 50.25%
of the outstanding shares of Bishop, the former shareholders of Aethlon will own
approximately 30.71% of the outstanding shares of Bishop, and the original
shareholders of Bishop will own approximately 19.04% of the outstanding shares
of Bishop.

3. Upon completion of the Acquisitions, management of the
Consolidated Companies shall use its best efforts to raise $3,000,000.00 for the
Consolidated Companies through a private placement of Bishop stock (hereinafter
referred to as the "Bishop Offering."), and the proceeds shall be used as
reflected in Appendix II. The terms and conditions of the proposed Bishop
Offering will be agreed upon and approved by the board of directors of Bishop
(hereinafter referred to as the "Board"). Prior to completion of the Bishop
Offering, a majority

Mr. Franklyn S. Barry, Jr.
July 28, 1998
Page 3

of the Board shall be appointed by Hemex. In the event the Board is comprised of
three (3) members, one member shall be James A. Joyce and the other two (2)
shall be Franklyn S. Barry, Jr. plus one additional member appointed by Hemex.

4. In the event that Bishop does not conclude both the Aethlon
Reorganization and the Hemex Reorganization within ninety (90) days following
execution of this Letter of Intent by Hemex, then Aethlon will have the right,
for a period of ninety (90) additional days, to either assume the rights and
responsibilities of Bishop set forth herein, or to replace Bishop with another
"public shell" which shall assume the rights and responsibilities of Bishop set
forth herein to enable Aethlon and Hemex to complete the intents and purposes of
this Letter of Intent. Aethlon's rights pursuant to this Letter of Intent shall
be assignable by Aethlon; however, during the period between the execution of
this Letter of Intent and the closing of the Hemex Reorganization, such right is
subject to the approval of Hemex. Furthermore, upon the termination or
expiration of this Letter of Intent, Hemex may not enter into any financial or
business relationship, for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of
termination or expiration, with any party exposed to the transactions proposed
herein without the prior written consent of Aethlon. This covenant shall survive
the termination or expiration of this Letter of Intent. In addition to any other
rights and remedies Aethlon may have in the event of a breach of this Letter of
Intent, Hemex agrees that Aethlon shall also have the right to injunctive relief
to enforce this provision.

5. Prior to the Hemex Reorganization, Hemex will cause all
Shareholders Loans and one (1) year 14% Convertible Notes, including any and all
accrued interest incurred thereon, to be converted to common stock of Hemex.
Furthermore, prior to the Hemex Reorganization, Hemex will reduce the total of
all liabilities, including both short-term and long-term liabilities, to no more
than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00).

6. As a condition to the closing of the Hemex Reorganization, the
Hemex Shareholders and the Aethlon founder will enter into an agreement with
Bishop pursuant to which the Hemex Shareholders and the Aethlon founder will
agree that they will not, without prior written approval of Bishop, offer for
sale, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly,
any of the shares of Bishop stock which they may own legally or beneficially in
any manner whatsoever, whether pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of
1933 or otherwise, for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of receipt
of the Bishop shares. As a further condition to the closing of the Hemex
Reorganization, Hemex and all of its shareholders approving the transaction and
the Aethlon founder will further agree and authorize Bishop to take any actions
(including, but not limited to, notification of Bishop's transfer agent
regarding any such restrictions) necessary to enforce this provision and
restrict the sale or transfer of the Bishop shares as provided herein.

7. As a condition to the closing of the Hemex Reorganization,
Bishop, on behalf of itself and the Consolidated Companies, shall execute and
enter into separate employment contracts with (i) Dr. Clara M. Ambrus, Chairman
of the Board of Directors and
Mr. Franklyn S. Barry, Jr.
July 28, 1998
Page 4

Chief Scientific Officer of Hemex; (ii) Franklyn S. Barry, Jr., President and
Chief Executive Officer of Hemex; and (iii) James A. Joyce, President of
Aethlon. The exact terms of each of the employment contracts will be negotiated
in good faith in the future (prior to the closing of the Hemex Reorganization)
by the parties referenced above. However, in the event that one or more of the
parties is/are unable to reach agreement on the terms of their respective
employment contract(s), then the respective terms and conditions listed in
Appendix III, attached hereto and incorporated herein, shall constitute a
binding employment contract, to be interpreted as necessary by the Compensation
Committee of the Board.

8. Each party shall pay for those legal and accounting fees
which it incurs in the course of the transactions contemplated herein from the
funds provided for in the Aethlon Offering, as set forth in Appendix I to this
Letter of Intent.

9. In the event one or more audits are required of Bishop, Hemex,
Aethlon or the Consolidated Companies as a prerequisite to any transaction
contemplated herein, and such audit or audits cannot be completed within the
time frames set forth herein, then each such deadline shall automatically be
extended to a date sixty (60) days after such audited financial statements are
issued.

10. Until consummation or termination of the Hemex Reorganization,
Hemex will conduct its business only in the ordinary course and none of the
assets or properties of Hemex shall be sold or disposed of except in the
ordinary course of business or with the consent of Aethlon. Hemex further agrees
not to enter into any agreements regarding the sale, exchange, issuance, or
other disposition of its stock, whether such stock be outstanding, treasury,
and/or authorized but not issued, to any other person or persons, whether
individual or corporate, without the prior written consent of Aethlon.

11. Aethlon makes the following representations and warranties to
Hemex, which shall be incorporated into the parties' formal agreements and which
shall survive the closing of the Acquisitions:

and in good standing under the laws of California, has the corporate power and

Re: Aethlon, Inc. Letter of Intent

Dear Ms. Salerno:

In accordance with our various discussions, this letter is written to
evidence our mutual intention to enter into this non-binding Letter of Intent
(the "Letter of Intent") pursuant to which Bishop Equities, Inc., a Nevada
corporation ("Bishop"), will acquire both Aethlon, Inc., a California
corporation ("Aethlon"), and Hemex, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Hemex").
Bishop will acquire Aethlon through a tax-free exchange of stock pursuant to
Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(hereinafter referred to as the "Aethlon Reorganization). Bishhop will also
acquire Hemex through a separate tax-free exchange of stock pursuant to Section
368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (hereinafter
referred to as the "Hemex Reorganization". For purposes of this Letter of
Intent, Aethlon, Hemex, and Bishop are hereinafter collectively referred to as
the "Consolidated Companies."

As soon as is practicable after entering into this Letter of Intent,
Aethlon will also enter into another, separate letter of intent with Hemex
(substantially in accordance with the Letter of Intent dated July 15, 1998, a
copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit "I"), pursuant to which Aethlon will
secure the right for Bishop to complete the Hemex Reorganization immediately
after the closing of the Aethlon Reorganization. The acquisition of Aethlon and
Hemex by Bishop as contemplated hereby are hereinafter collectively referred to
as the "Acquisitions."

Aethlon and Bishop agree that execution of this Letter of Intent is subject
to the following terms and conditions:

Ms. Deborah Salerno
July 15, 1998
Page 2

1 . Immediately prior to the Acquisitions, Bishop will have outstanding
no more than 511,500 shares of its Common Stock. Within ninety (90) days
following execution of the Aethlon-Hemex Letter of Intent by Hemex, Bishop will
close the Aethlon Reorganization, whereby Aethlon's shareholders will transfer
all outstanding shares of Aethlon stock to Bishop in return for 825,000 shares
of Common Stock of Bishop. As soon as practicable after the close of the Aethlon
Reorganization (but within ninety (90) days following execution of the Aethlon
Hemex Letter of Intent by Hemex), Bishop will close the Hemex Reorganization,
whereby Hemex' shareholders will transfer all outstanding shares of Hemex stock
to Bishop in return for 1,350,000 shares of Common Stock of Bishop. Immediately
following the Acquisitions, the total number of outstanding shares of Common
Stock of Bishop will be 2,686,500, and the former shareholders of Hemex will
collectively own approximately 50.25% of the outstanding shares of Bishop, the
former shareholders of Aethlon will own approximately 30.71% of the outstanding
shares of Bishop, and the original shareholders of Bishop will own approximately
19.04% of the outstanding shares of Bishop.

2. Upon completion of the Acquisitions, all of the Directors on
Bishop's Board will immediately resign and shall be replaced by a slate of
directors to be named by Aethlon's Board of Directors, a majority of which shall
be approved by Hemex. In the event Bishop's Board is comprised of three (3)
members, one (1) member shall be James A. Joyce, one (1) member shall be
Franklyn S. Barry, Jr., and one (1) member shall be appointed by Hemex.

3. Bishop must acquire both Hemex and Aethlon, pursuant . to this Letter of
Intent and the Aethlon-Hemex Letter of Intent, and Bishop shall not have the
right to acquire only one of the corporations without also acquiring the other.
In the event that Bishop does not conclude both the Aethlon Reorganization and
the Hemex Reorganization within ninety (90) days following execution of the
Aethlon-Hemex Letter of Intent by Hemex, then both Aethlon and Bishop shall have
the right to terminate this Letter of Latent, without obligation, by giving
written notice of termination to the other party. Additionally, during the due
diligence review period, either party may terminate this Letter of Intent,
without obligation, by giving written notice of termination to the. other party.

4. As a condition to the closing of the Hemex Reorganization and the
Aethlon Reorganization, the original shareholders of Bishop will enter into an
agreement with Aethlon pursuant to which the original shareholders of Bishop
will agree that they will not, without prior written approval of Aethlon, offer
for sale, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or
indirectly, any of the shares of Bishop stock which they may own legally or
beneficially in any manner whatsoever, whether pursuant to Rule 144 of the
Securities Act of 1933 or otherwise, for a period of time, to be negotiated in
good faith prior to closing the Aethlon Reorganization by Aethlon and Bishop,
from the date of the closing of the Acquisitions. As a further condition to the
closing of the Hemex Reorganization and the Aethlon Reorganization, Bishop and
all of its original shareholders will further agree and authorize Aethlon to

restrict the sale or transfer of the Bishop shares as provided herein.

persons, whether individual or corporate. Bishop further agrees not to take any
actions that may lead to or result in Bishop being de-listed by the National
Association of Stock Dealers Automated Quotations ("Nasdaq") OTC Bulletin Board
(Nasdaq symbol: BSEQ).

7. In the event one or more audits are required of Bishop, Hemex,
Aethlon or the Consolidated Companies as a prerequisite to any transaction

INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT, dated as of February 12, 1999, is made and
entered into by and between BISHOP EQUITIES, INC., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company"), and FRANKLYN S. BARRY, JR. ("BARRY").

WHEREAS, BARRY is currently serving as a director of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Articles of Incorporation (the "Charter") of the Company
provides that the Company will indemnify, in the manner and to the fullest
extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS"), certain persons
against specified expenses arising out of certain threatened, pending or
completed actions, suits or proceedings; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce BARRY to continue to serve the Company in his
present capacity, and to provide BARRY with specific contractual assurance that
the protection authorized by the Charter will be available to BARRY, the Company
wishes to enter into this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, the Company and BARRY hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. The following terms, as used herein, shall have the
following meanings.

(a) "Suit" shall mean any claim, demand, action, suit, lawsuit,
arbitration, mediation, hearing, or proceeding.

(b) "Covered Claim" shall mean any threatened, pending or completed
Suit, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the
fact that BARRY is or was a director of the Company.

(c) "Determination" shall mean a determination, based upon the facts
known at the time, made by:

(i) the Board of Directors of the Company, by the vote of a
majority of the directors who are not parties to the Suit in question, even
though less than a quorum;

(ii) if there are no such disinterested directors, or if such
disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written
opinion;

(iii) the stockholders of the Company; or

(iv) a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final,
nonappealable adjudication.

In the event that there are conflicting determinations, the determination shall
be given effect in the following order of precedence: First, by a court or
arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable adjudication;
second, to the stockholders of the Company; third, to the independent legal
counsel in a written opinion; and last, to the Board of Directors of the
Company.

(d) "Payment" shall mean all costs and expenses (including attorneys')
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by BARRY in connection with or relating to a Covered Claim.

2. Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless BARRY
against and from any and all Payments to the extent that:

(a) the Company shall not have advanced expenses to BARRY pursuant to
the provisions of the Charter or otherwise and no Determination shall have been
made pursuant to such Charter provision or the NRS that BARRY is not entitled to
indemnification;

(b) BARRY shall not already have received payment on account of such
Payments from any third party, including, without limitation, pursuant to one or
more valid and collectible insurance policies; and

(c) such indemnification by the Company is not unlawful.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, except for
proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses
pursuant to Section 4 hereof , the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify
BARRY in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by BARRY
unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the
Board of Directors of the Company. Further, the Company shall have no
obligation to indemnify BARRY under this Agreement for any amounts paid in a
settlement of any Suit effected without the Company's prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall not settle
any Suit in any manner that would impose any obligation on BARRY (regardless of
whether BARRY would be entitled to indemnification for obligations) without
BARRY's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

3. Indemnification Procedure; Advancements of Expenses.

(a) If at the time of receipt of any notice pursuant to Section 9
hereof the Company has directors' and officers' liability insurance in effect,
the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such Suit to the
insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies
in favor of BARRY. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable
action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of BARRY, all Payments payable
as a result of such Suit in accordance with the terms of such policies.

(b) All expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by BARRY in
defending any Covered Claim shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final
disposition of such Covered Claim upon an undertaking by or on behalf of BARRY
to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined by a court or
arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable adjudication that
he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized herein. BARRY
hereby undertakes to and agrees that he will repay the Company for any expenses
advanced by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Section 3(b) if it
shall ultimately be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final,
nonappealable adjudication that BARRY is not entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement.

(c) If the Company shall advance the expenses of any such Suit pursuant
to Section (b) hereof, it shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Suit,
if appropriate, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to BARRY, upon delivery to
BARRY of written notice of its election so to do. After delivery of such
notice, the Company shall not be liable to BARRY under this Agreement for any
expenses subsequently incurred by BARRY in connection with such defense other
than reasonable expenses of investigation; provided, however, that:

(i) BARRY shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Suit
provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after delivery of
notice by the Company of its assumption of such defense shall be at BARRY's own
expense; and

(ii) the fees and expenses of counsel employed by BARRY shall be at the
expense of the Company if (x) the employment of counsel by BARRY has previously
been authorized by the Company, (y) BARRY shall have reasonably concluded that
there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and BARRY in the conduct
of any such defense (provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay for
more than one counsel to represent two or more indemnitees where such
indemnitees have reasonably concluded that there is no conflict of interest
among them in the conduct of such defense) or (z) the Company shall not, in
fact, have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to BARRY to assume the
defense of such Suit.

(d) All payments on account of the Company's advancement obligations
under Section (b) hereof shall be made within 20 days of BARRY's written request
therefor. All other payments on account of the Company's obligations under this
Agreement shall be made within 60 days of BARRY's written request therefor,
unless a Determination is made that the claims giving rise to BARRY's request
are not payable under this Agreement. Each request for payment hereunder shall
be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of BARRY's
incurrence of the expenses for which such payment is sought.

4. Enforcement of Indemnification; Burden of Proof. If a claim for
indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Agreement is not paid in
full by or on behalf of the Company within the time period specified in Section
3(d) hereof, BARRY may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to
recover the unpaid amount of such clam. In any such action the Company shall
have the burden of proving that indemnification is not required under this
Agreement.

5. Partial Indemnification. If BARRY is entitled under any provision of
this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some portion of any
Payments, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall
nevertheless indemnify BARRY for the portion of any such Payments to which BARRY
is entitled.

6. Right Not Exclusive. The rights to indemnification and advancement of
expenses provided hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to
which BARRY may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise as to action in BARRY's official capacity
or as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

7. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Agreement by or on
behalf of the Company, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such
payment to all of the rights of recovery of BARRY, who shall execute all papers
that may be required and shall do all things that may be necessary to secure
such rights, including, without limitation, the execution of such documents as
may be necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such
rights.

8. Notice of Claim. Promptly after receipt by BARRY of notice of the
commencement or threat of commencement of any civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative Suit, BARRY shall, if indemnification with respect thereto may be
sought from the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company thereof in
writing at its principal office and directed to the Corporate Secretary (or such
other address as the Company shall designate in writing to BARRY); notice shall
be deemed received if sent by prepaid mail properly addressed, the date of such
notice being the date postmarked. In addition, BARRY shall give the Company
such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be
within BARRY's power.

9. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without giving
effect to the principals of conflict of laws thereunder.

10. Jurisdiction. The Company and BARRY hereby irrevocably consent to the
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Nevada for all purposes in connection
with any Suit that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, and agree that
any action instituted under this Agreement shall be brought only in the state
courts of the State of Nevada.

11. Coverage. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to BARRY's
service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or at the
Company's request, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other
enterprise with respect to all periods of such service prior to and after the
date of this Agreement, even though BARRY may have ceased such service at the
time of indemnification hereunder.

12. Attorneys' Fees. If any Suit is commenced in connection with or related
to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have its costs and
expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
reasonable expenses of investigation, paid by the losing party.

13. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is
determined by a court to require the Company to do or to fail to do an act that
is in violation of any applicable law, such provision shall be limited or
modified in its application to the minimum extent necessary to avoid a violation
of law, and, as so limited or modified, such provision and the balance of this
Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with their terms.

14. Successors and Assigns. The Agreement shall be binding upon all
successors and assigns of the Company, including any transferee of all or
substantially all of its assets and any successor by merger or otherwise by
operation of law, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of BARRY.

INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT, dated as of February 12, 1999, is made and
entered into by and between BISHOP EQUITIES, INC., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company"), and JAMES A. JOYCE ("JOYCE").

WHEREAS, JOYCE is currently serving as a director of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Articles of Incorporation (the "Charter") of the Company
provides that the Company will indemnify, in the manner and to the fullest
extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS"), certain persons
against specified expenses arising out of certain threatened, pending or
completed actions, suits or proceedings; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce JOYCE to continue to serve the Company in his
present capacity, and to provide JOYCE with specific contractual assurance that
the protection authorized by the Charter will be available to JOYCE, the Company
wishes to enter into this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, the Company and JOYCE hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. The following terms, as used herein, shall have the
following meanings.

(a) "Suit" shall mean any claim, demand, action, suit, lawsuit,
arbitration, mediation, hearing, or proceeding.

(b) "Covered Claim" shall mean any threatened, pending or completed
Suit, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the
fact that JOYCE is or was a director of the Company.

(c) "Determination" shall mean a determination, based upon the facts
known at the time, made by:

(i) the Board of Directors of the Company, by the vote of a
majority of the directors who are not parties to the Suit in question, even
though less than a quorum;

(ii) if there are no such disinterested directors, or if such
disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written
opinion;

(iii) the stockholders of the Company; or

(iv) a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final,
nonappealable adjudication.

In the event that there are conflicting determinations, the determination shall
be given effect in the following order of precedence: First, by a court or
arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable adjudication;
second, to the stockholders of the Company; third, to the independent legal
counsel in a written opinion; and last, to the Board of Directors of the
Company.

(d) "Payment" shall mean all costs and expenses (including attorneys')
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by JOYCE in connection with or relating to a Covered Claim.

2. Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless JOYCE
against and from any and all Payments to the extent that:

(a) the Company shall not have advanced expenses to JOYCE pursuant to
the provisions of the Charter or otherwise and no Determination shall have been
made pursuant to such Charter provision or the NRS that JOYCE is not entitled to
indemnification;

(b) JOYCE shall not already have received payment on account of such
Payments from any third party, including, without limitation, pursuant to one or
more valid and collectible insurance policies; and

(c) such indemnification by the Company is not unlawful.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, except for
proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses
pursuant to Section 4 hereof , the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify
JOYCE in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by JOYCE
unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the
Board of Directors of the Company. Further, the Company shall have no
obligation to indemnify JOYCE under this Agreement for any amounts paid in a
settlement of any Suit effected without the Company's prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall not settle
any Suit in any manner that would impose any obligation on JOYCE (regardless of
whether JOYCE would be entitled to indemnification for obligations) without
JOYCE's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

3. Indemnification Procedure; Advancements of Expenses.

(a) If at the time of receipt of any notice pursuant to Section 9
hereof the Company has directors' and officers' liability insurance in effect,
the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such Suit to the
insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies
in favor of JOYCE. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable
action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of JOYCE, all Payments payable
as a result of such Suit in accordance with the terms of such policies.

(b) All expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by JOYCE in
defending any Covered Claim shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final
disposition of such Covered Claim upon an undertaking by or on behalf of JOYCE
to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined by a court or
arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable adjudication that
he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized herein. JOYCE
hereby undertakes to and agrees that he will repay the Company for any expenses
advanced by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Section 3(b) if it
shall ultimately be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final,
nonappealable adjudication that JOYCE is not entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement.

(c) If the Company shall advance the expenses of any such Suit pursuant
to Section (b) hereof, it shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Suit,
if appropriate, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to JOYCE, upon delivery to
JOYCE of written notice of its election so to do. After delivery of such
notice, the Company shall not be liable to JOYCE under this Agreement for any
expenses subsequently incurred by JOYCE in connection with such defense other
than reasonable expenses of investigation; provided, however, that:

(i) JOYCE shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Suit
provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after delivery of
notice by the Company of its assumption of such defense shall be at JOYCE's own
expense; and

(ii) the fees and expenses of counsel employed by JOYCE shall be at the
expense of the Company if (x) the employment of counsel by JOYCE has previously
been authorized by the Company, (y) JOYCE shall have reasonably concluded that
there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and JOYCE in the conduct
of any such defense (provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay for
more than one counsel to represent two or more indemnitees where such
indemnitees have reasonably concluded that there is no conflict of interest
among them in the conduct of such defense) or (z) the Company shall not, in
fact, have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to JOYCE to assume the
defense of such Suit.

(d) All payments on account of the Company's advancement obligations
under Section (b) hereof shall be made within 20 days of JOYCE's written request
therefor. All other payments on account of the Company's obligations under this
Agreement shall be made within 60 days of JOYCE's written request therefor,
unless a Determination is made that the claims giving rise to JOYCE's request
are not payable under this Agreement. Each request for payment hereunder shall
be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of JOYCE's
incurrence of the expenses for which such payment is sought.

4. Enforcement of Indemnification; Burden of Proof. If a claim for
indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Agreement is not paid in
full by or on behalf of the Company within the time period specified in Section
3(d) hereof, JOYCE may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to
recover the unpaid amount of such clam. In any such action the Company shall
have the burden of proving that indemnification is not required under this
Agreement.

5. Partial Indemnification. If JOYCE is entitled under any provision of
this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some portion of any
Payments, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall
nevertheless indemnify JOYCE for the portion of any such Payments to which JOYCE
is entitled.

6. Right Not Exclusive. The rights to indemnification and advancement of
expenses provided hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to
which JOYCE may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise as to action in JOYCE's official capacity
or as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

7. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Agreement by or on
behalf of the Company, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such
payment to all of the rights of recovery of JOYCE, who shall execute all papers
that may be required and shall do all things that may be necessary to secure
such rights, including, without limitation, the execution of such documents as
may be necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such
rights.

8. Notice of Claim. Promptly after receipt by JOYCE of notice of the
commencement or threat of commencement of any civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative Suit, JOYCE shall, if indemnification with respect thereto may be
sought from the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company thereof in
writing at its principal office and directed to the Corporate Secretary (or such
other address as the Company shall designate in writing to JOYCE); notice shall
be deemed received if sent by prepaid mail properly addressed, the date of such
notice being the date postmarked. In addition, JOYCE shall give the Company
such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be
within JOYCE's power.

9. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without giving
effect to the principals of conflict of laws thereunder.

10. Jurisdiction. The Company and JOYCE hereby irrevocably consent to the
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Nevada for all purposes in connection
with any Suit that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, and agree that
any action instituted under this Agreement shall be brought only in the state
courts of the State of Nevada.

11. Coverage. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to JOYCE's
service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or at the
Company's request, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other
enterprise with respect to all periods of such service prior to and after the
date of this Agreement, even though JOYCE may have ceased such service at the
time of indemnification hereunder.

12. Attorneys' Fees. If any Suit is commenced in connection with or related
to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have its costs and
expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
reasonable expenses of investigation, paid by the losing party.

13. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is
determined by a court to require the Company to do or to fail to do an act that
is in violation of any applicable law, such provision shall be limited or
modified in its application to the minimum extent necessary to avoid a violation
of law, and, as so limited or modified, such provision and the balance of this
Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with their terms.

14. Successors and Assigns. The Agreement shall be binding upon all
successors and assigns of the Company, including any transferee of all or
substantially all of its assets and any successor by merger or otherwise by
operation of law, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of JOYCE.

15. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings in this Agreement are
included for the convenience of the parties only and shall not affect the
construction of this Agreement.

16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, both
of which taken together shall constitute one document.

17. Amendment. No amendment, modification, termination or cancellation of
this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by each of
the parties hereto.

--------, 1999


To the Shareholders of Aethlon, Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I have acted as counsel to Bishop Equities, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company") in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization for the
Acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Aethlon, Inc.
("Aethlon") by the Company ("the Plan"). This opinion is furnished to you
pursuant to Section 1.3.6 of the Plan.

I have participated in the preparation of and have examined the proceedings
of the Company in connection with the approval thereof and the authorization of
the transactions contemplated thereby, and have further examined such corporate
records and documents of the Company and certificates of officers of the
Company, and public officials, as I have deemed relevant and necessary to enable
me to render this opinion. I have relied on the accuracy of certain
representations and warranties of the Company and Aethlon contained in the Plan
and have relied upon such records, documents and certificates with respect to
the accuracy of certain factual matters, without independent verification of the
matters covered thereby. In my examination of such records, documents and
certificates, I have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to me
as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to
me as certified or photostatic copies of original documents, the authenticity of
the originals of such latter documents, and the accuracy of the statements
contained in such certificates.

Based upon and in reliance upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:

1. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has all requisite
corporate power and authority to own and lease its properties and to conduct its
business as presently conducted.

2. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 25,000,000
common shares, par value $.001 per share, of which 511,500 are issued and
outstanding; and all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock have
been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable, and to the best of my knowledge have not been issued in violation
of any preemptive right, co-sale right, registration right, right of first
refusal or other similar right, and such shares are free and clear of any liens
or other encumbrances.


Shareholders of Aethlon, Inc.

3. The Company has the corporate power and authority to authorize the
issuance of the common stock under the Plan, and the Board of Directors of the
Company has consented to and approved the issuance of the shares pursuant to the
Plan.

4. The delivery of the shares of common stock to the Aethlon stockholders
pursuant to the Plan has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
on the part of the Company. The 728,500 common shares to be issued to the
Aethlon shareholders, as and when delivered to the Aethlon shareholders pursuant
to the Plan, are validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable,
and are not subject to any preemptive or similar right.

5. The Plan has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the
Company and, assuming the execution and delivery thereof by Aethlon, constitutes
a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance
with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating
to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
equitable principles, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law.

6. The execution, delivery and performance of the Plan by the Company, and
the delivery by the Company to Aethlon of the shares of common stock pursuant to
the terms of the Plan, will not result in a breach or violation of, or
constitute a default under, the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws,
or any statute, law, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its
properties, provided that the required "blue sky" filings are made as will be
provided in the closing minutes.

7. The execution, delivery and performance of the Plan by the Company and
the delivery by the Company to Aethlon of the shares of common stock pursuant to
the terms of the Plan will not violate or conflict with or result in a breach of
or constitute (or event which might, with the passage of time or the giving of
notice, or both, constitute a default) under, or result in the creation or
imposition of any claim, lien, security interest, mortgage, pledge, charge or
other encumbrance of any nature upon any of the properties or assets of the
Company pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, agreement, contract,
deed of trust, promissory note, or other agreement or instrument to which the
Company is subject.

8. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or
qualification with, any court or governmental agency or body or national
securities exchange is required to be obtained by the Company for the delivery
of the shares of common stock to Aethlon shareholders pursuant to the Plan,
which has not been made or obtained by the Company.



Shareholders of Aethlon, Inc.

9. To the best of my knowledge after due inquiry, except as disclosed in
the Plan, there are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending to
which the Company is a party, before or by any court or governmental agency or
body which in my opinion would result, individually or in the aggregate, in any
material adverse change in the prospects, financial condition or results of
operations of the Company or which would materially and adversely affect the
properties or assets thereof, taken as a whole, or which seeks to restrain or
prohibit the transactions contemplated by the Plan; and, to the best of my
knowledge after due inquiry, no such actions, suits, investigations or
proceedings are threatened by any person, corporation or governmental agency or
body.

This opinion is rendered solely for the benefit of Aethlon with respect to
the shares of common stock to be delivered under the Plan, and is not to be
used, circulated, quoted or referred to, or otherwise relied upon by any person,
without my prior written consent.

Sincerely,

Re: Aethlon, Inc. Letter of Intent

Dear Mr. Barry:

In accordance with our various discussions, this letter is written to
evidence our mutual intention to enter into this binding Letter of Intent (the
"Letter of Intent") pursuant to which Aethlon, Inc., a California corporation
("Aethlon") will secure the acquisition of Hemex, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("Hemex"), by Bishop Equities, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Bishop"), through a
tax-free exchange of stock pursuant to Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (hereinafter referred to as the "Hemex
Reorganization"). For purposes of this Letter of Intent, Aethlon, Hemex and
Bishop are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Consolidated Companies."

Prior to entering into this Letter of Intent, Aethlon has also entered
into another, separate letter of intent with Bishop, pursuant to which Aethlon
will also be acquired by Bishop through a tax-free exchange of stock pursuant to
Section 368(a)(1)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Aethlon Reorganization") immediately prior to the closing of the Hemex
Reorganization. The acquisition of Aethlon and Hemex by Bishop as contemplated
hereby are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Acquisitions."

Aethlon and Hemex agree that execution of this Letter of Intent is
subject to the following terms and conditions:

1. Aethlon will use its best efforts to raise at least $400,000.00
through a private placement of shares of Aethlon Common Stock (hereinafter
referred to as the "Aethlon Offering") and through contributions of capital to
Aethlon by its founder. The shares issued pursuant to the Aethlon Offering will
not be registered under federal or state securities laws, but

Mr. Franklyn S. Barry, Jr.
July 28, 1998
Page 2

will be issued pursuant to one or more exemptions from the registration
requirements of applicable state and/or federal securities laws. The Aethlon
Reorganization will occur as soon as practicable following the closing of the
Aethlon Offering. The parties hereto agree that Aethlon and Bishop (following
the Aethlon Reorganization) will use the proceeds from the Aethlona 0ffering, as
provided in Appendix I, to provide working capital and to prepare for and
complete an anticipated $3,000,000.00 private placement to be conducted by
Bishop after the Acquisitions. If Aethlon fails to raise at least $400,000.00 in
the Aethlon Offering and close the Aethlon Reorganization within sixty (60) days
of the Securities Registration Compliance Date, Hemex will-be entitled to
terminate this Letter of Intent without being in breach. (For purposes of this
Letter of Intent, the "Securities Registration Compliance Date" shall be the
date upon which both the Private Placement Memorandum is completed and all
necessary Blue Sky registration requirements and/or exemptions thereto are
complied with for the Aethlon Offering . At anytime after this Letter of Intent
is executed by Hemex and prior to the Hemex Reorganization, Hemex, will be able
to request that Aethlon make advances to Hemex from Aethlon's available funds
(such advances to Hemex are hereinafter referred to as "Interim Advances").
However, once Hemex requests and receives from Aethlon any Interim Advances,
Hemex will no longer be able to terminate this Letter of Intent based on
Aethlon's failure to complete the Aethlon Offering. If this Letter of Intent is
terminated for any reason, then in addition to such other remedies as the
parties may have, Aethlon may elect to convert the Interim Advances to a loan
bearing interest at ten percent (10%) per annum from the date such funds were
advanced, which loan shall immediately be due and payable to Aethlon.

2. Immediately prior to the Acquisitions, Bishop will have
outstanding no more than 511,500 shares of its Common Stock. Upon completion of
the Aethlon Offering and the Aethlon Reorganization, or at anytime after
receiving Interim Advances and being so instructed by Aethlon, Hemex will be
obligated to close the Hemex Reorganization, whereby Hemex will transfer all
outstanding shares of Hemex stock to Bishop in return for 1,350,000 shares of
Common Stock of Bishop. Prior to the Hemex Reorganization, Aethlon and Bishop
will close the Aethlon Reorganization whereby Aethlon's shareholders will
transfer all outstanding shares of Aethlon stock to Bishop in return for 825,000
shares of Common Stock of Bishop. Immediately following the Acquisitions, the
total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock of Bishop will be 2,686,500,
and the former shareholders of Hemex will collectively own approximately 50.25%
of the outstanding shares of Bishop, the former shareholders of Aethlon will own
approximately 30.71% of the outstanding shares of Bishop, and the original
shareholders of Bishop will own approximately 19.04% of the outstanding shares
of Bishop.

3. Upon completion of the Acquisitions, management of the
Consolidated Companies shall use its best efforts to raise $3,000,000.00 for the
Consolidated Companies through a private placement of Bishop stock (hereinafter
referred to as the "Bishop Offering."), and the proceeds shall be used as
reflected in Appendix II. The terms and conditions of the proposed Bishop
Offering will be agreed upon and approved by the board of directors of Bishop
(hereinafter referred to as the "Board"). Prior to completion of the Bishop
Offering, a majority

Mr. Franklyn S. Barry, Jr.
July 28, 1998
Page 3

of the Board shall be appointed by Hemex. In the event the Board is comprised of
three (3) members, one member shall be James A. Joyce and the other two (2)
shall be Franklyn S. Barry, Jr. plus one additional member appointed by Hemex.

4. In the event that Bishop does not conclude both the Aethlon
Reorganization and the Hemex Reorganization within ninety (90) days following
execution of this Letter of Intent by Hemex, then Aethlon will have the right,
for a period of ninety (90) additional days, to either assume the rights and
responsibilities of Bishop set forth herein, or to replace Bishop with another
"public shell" which shall assume the rights and responsibilities of Bishop set
forth herein to enable Aethlon and Hemex to complete the intents and purposes of
this Letter of Intent. Aethlon's rights pursuant to this Letter of Intent shall
be assignable by Aethlon; however, during the period between the execution of
this Letter of Intent and the closing of the Hemex Reorganization, such right is
subject to the approval of Hemex. Furthermore, upon the termination or
expiration of this Letter of Intent, Hemex may not enter into any financial or
business relationship, for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of
termination or expiration, with any party exposed to the transactions proposed
herein without the prior written consent of Aethlon. This covenant shall survive
the termination or expiration of this Letter of Intent. In addition to any other
rights and remedies Aethlon may have in the event of a breach of this Letter of
Intent, Hemex agrees that Aethlon shall also have the right to injunctive relief
to enforce this provision.

5. Prior to the Hemex Reorganization, Hemex will cause all
Shareholders Loans and one (1) year 14% Convertible Notes, including any and all
accrued interest incurred thereon, to be converted to common stock of Hemex.
Furthermore, prior to the Hemex Reorganization, Hemex will reduce the total of
all liabilities, including both short-term and long-term liabilities, to no more
than Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00).

6. As a condition to the closing of the Hemex Reorganization, the
Hemex Shareholders and the Aethlon founder will enter into an agreement with
Bishop pursuant to which the Hemex Shareholders and the Aethlon founder will
agree that they will not, without prior written approval of Bishop, offer for
sale, sell, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly,
any of the shares of Bishop stock which they may own legally or beneficially in
any manner whatsoever, whether pursuant to Rule 144 of the Securities Act of
1933 or otherwise, for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of receipt
of the Bishop shares. As a further condition to the closing of the Hemex
Reorganization, Hemex and all of its shareholders approving the transaction and
the Aethlon founder will further agree and authorize Bishop to take any actions
(including, but not limited to, notification of Bishop's transfer agent
regarding any such restrictions) necessary to enforce this provision and
restrict the sale or transfer of the Bishop shares as provided herein.

7. As a condition to the closing of the Hemex Reorganization,
Bishop, on behalf of itself and the Consolidated Companies, shall execute and
enter into separate employment contracts with (i) Dr. Clara M. Ambrus, Chairman
of the Board of Directors and
Mr. Franklyn S. Barry, Jr.
July 28, 1998
Page 4

Chief Scientific Officer of Hemex; (ii) Franklyn S. Barry, Jr., President and
Chief Executive Officer of Hemex; and (iii) James A. Joyce, President of
Aethlon. The exact terms of each of the employment contracts will be negotiated
in good faith in the future (prior to the closing of the Hemex Reorganization)
by the parties referenced above. However, in the event that one or more of the
parties is/are unable to reach agreement on the terms of their respective
employment contract(s), then the respective terms and conditions listed in
Appendix III, attached hereto and incorporated herein, shall constitute a
binding employment contract, to be interpreted as necessary by the Compensation
Committee of the Board.

8. Each party shall pay for those legal and accounting fees
which it incurs in the course of the transactions contemplated herein from the
funds provided for in the Aethlon Offering, as set forth in Appendix I to this
Letter of Intent.

9. In the event one or more audits are required of Bishop, Hemex,
Aethlon or the Consolidated Companies as a prerequisite to any transaction
contemplated herein, and such audit or audits cannot be completed within the
time frames set forth herein, then each such deadline shall automatically be
extended to a date sixty (60) days after such audited financial statements are
issued.

10. Until consummation or termination of the Hemex Reorganization,
Hemex will conduct its business only in the ordinary course and none of the
assets or properties of Hemex shall be sold or disposed of except in the
ordinary course of business or with the consent of Aethlon. Hemex further agrees
not to enter into any agreements regarding the sale, exchange, issuance, or
other disposition of its stock, whether such stock be outstanding, treasury,
and/or authorized but not issued, to any other person or persons, whether
individual or corporate, without the prior written consent of Aethlon.

11. Aethlon makes the following representations and warranties to
Hemex, which shall be incorporated into the parties' formal agreements and which
shall survive the closing of the Acquisitions:

and in good standing under the laws of California, has the corporate power and

the "Consolidated Companies."

As soon as is practicable after entering into this Letter of Intent,
Aethlon will also enter into another, separate letter of intent with Hemex

INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT, dated as of February 12, 1999, is made and
entered into by and between BISHOP EQUITIES, INC., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company"), and FRANKLYN S. BARRY, JR. ("BARRY").

WHEREAS, BARRY is currently serving as a director of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Articles of Incorporation (the "Charter") of the Company
provides that the Company will indemnify, in the manner and to the fullest
extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS"), certain persons
against specified expenses arising out of certain threatened, pending or
completed actions, suits or proceedings; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce BARRY to continue to serve the Company in his
present capacity, and to provide BARRY with specific contractual assurance that
the protection authorized by the Charter will be available to BARRY, the Company
wishes to enter into this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, the Company and BARRY hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. The following terms, as used herein, shall have the
following meanings.

(a) "Suit" shall mean any claim, demand, action, suit, lawsuit,
arbitration, mediation, hearing, or proceeding.

(b) "Covered Claim" shall mean any threatened, pending or completed
Suit, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the
fact that BARRY is or was a director of the Company.

(c) "Determination" shall mean a determination, based upon the facts
known at the time, made by:

(i) the Board of Directors of the Company, by the vote of a
majority of the directors who are not parties to the Suit in question, even
though less than a quorum;

(ii) if there are no such disinterested directors, or if such
disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written
opinion;

(iii) the stockholders of the Company; or

(iv) a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final,
nonappealable adjudication.

In the event that there are conflicting determinations, the determination shall
be given effect in the following order of precedence: First, by a court or
arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable adjudication;
second, to the stockholders of the Company; third, to the independent legal
counsel in a written opinion; and last, to the Board of Directors of the
Company.

(d) "Payment" shall mean all costs and expenses (including attorneys')
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by BARRY in connection with or relating to a Covered Claim.

2. Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless BARRY
against and from any and all Payments to the extent that:

(a) the Company shall not have advanced expenses to BARRY pursuant to
the provisions of the Charter or otherwise and no Determination shall have been
made pursuant to such Charter provision or the NRS that BARRY is not entitled to
indemnification;

(b) BARRY shall not already have received payment on account of such
Payments from any third party, including, without limitation, pursuant to one or
more valid and collectible insurance policies; and

(c) such indemnification by the Company is not unlawful.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, except for
proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses
pursuant to Section 4 hereof , the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify
BARRY in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by BARRY
unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the
Board of Directors of the Company. Further, the Company shall have no
obligation to indemnify BARRY under this Agreement for any amounts paid in a
settlement of any Suit effected without the Company's prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall not settle
any Suit in any manner that would impose any obligation on BARRY (regardless of
whether BARRY would be entitled to indemnification for obligations) without
BARRY's prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

3. Indemnification Procedure; Advancements of Expenses.

(a) If at the time of receipt of any notice pursuant to Section 9
hereof the Company has directors' and officers' liability insurance in effect,
the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such Suit to the
insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies
in favor of BARRY. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable
action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of BARRY, all Payments payable
as a result of such Suit in accordance with the terms of such policies.

(b) All expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by BARRY in
defending any Covered Claim shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final
disposition of such Covered Claim upon an undertaking by or on behalf of BARRY
to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined by a court or
arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable adjudication that
he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized herein. BARRY
hereby undertakes to and agrees that he will repay the Company for any expenses
advanced by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Section 3(b) if it
shall ultimately be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final,
nonappealable adjudication that BARRY is not entitled to indemnification under
this Agreement.

(c) If the Company shall advance the expenses of any such Suit pursuant
to Section (b) hereof, it shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Suit,
if appropriate, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to BARRY, upon delivery to
BARRY of written notice of its election so to do. After delivery of such
notice, the Company shall not be liable to BARRY under this Agreement for any
expenses subsequently incurred by BARRY in connection with such defense other
than reasonable expenses of investigation; provided, however, that:

(i) BARRY shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Suit
provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after delivery of
notice by the Company of its assumption of such defense shall be at BARRY's own
expense; and

(ii) the fees and expenses of counsel employed by BARRY shall be at the
expense of the Company if (x) the employment of counsel by BARRY has previously
been authorized by the Company, (y) BARRY shall have reasonably concluded that
there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and BARRY in the conduct
of any such defense (provided, that the Company shall not be required to pay for
more than one counsel to represent two or more indemnitees where such
indemnitees have reasonably concluded that there is no conflict of interest
among them in the conduct of such defense) or (z) the Company shall not, in
fact, have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to BARRY to assume the
defense of such Suit.

(d) All payments on account of the Company's advancement obligations
under Section (b) hereof shall be made within 20 days of BARRY's written request
therefor. All other payments on account of the Company's obligations under this
Agreement shall be made within 60 days of BARRY's written request therefor,
unless a Determination is made that the claims giving rise to BARRY's request
are not payable under this Agreement. Each request for payment hereunder shall
be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of BARRY's
incurrence of the expenses for which such payment is sought.

4. Enforcement of Indemnification; Burden of Proof. If a claim for
indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Agreement is not paid in
full by or on behalf of the Company within the time period specified in Section
3(d) hereof, BARRY may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Company to
recover the unpaid amount of such clam. In any such action the Company shall
have the burden of proving that indemnification is not required under this
Agreement.

5. Partial Indemnification. If BARRY is entitled under any provision of
this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some portion of any
Payments, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall
nevertheless indemnify BARRY for the portion of any such Payments to which BARRY
is entitled.

6. Right Not Exclusive. The rights to indemnification and advancement of
expenses provided hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to
which BARRY may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise as to action in BARRY's official capacity
or as to action in another capacity while holding such office.

7. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Agreement by or on
behalf of the Company, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such
payment to all of the rights of recovery of BARRY, who shall execute all papers
that may be required and shall do all things that may be necessary to secure
such rights, including, without limitation, the execution of such documents as
may be necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to enforce such
rights.

8. Notice of Claim. Promptly after receipt by BARRY of notice of the
commencement or threat of commencement of any civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative Suit, BARRY shall, if indemnification with respect thereto may be
sought from the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company thereof in
writing at its principal office and directed to the Corporate Secretary (or such
other address as the Company shall designate in writing to BARRY); notice shall
be deemed received if sent by prepaid mail properly addressed, the date of such
notice being the date postmarked. In addition, BARRY shall give the Company
such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require and as shall be
within BARRY's power.

9. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without giving
effect to the principals of conflict of laws thereunder.

10. Jurisdiction. The Company and BARRY hereby irrevocably consent to the
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Nevada for all purposes in connection
with any Suit that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, and agree that
any action instituted under this Agreement shall be brought only in the state
courts of the State of Nevada.

11. Coverage. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to BARRY's
service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or at the
Company's request, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other
enterprise with respect to all periods of such service prior to and after the
date of this Agreement, even though BARRY may have ceased such service at the
time of indemnification hereunder.

12. Attorneys' Fees. If any Suit is commenced in connection with or related
to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have its costs and
expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
reasonable expenses of investigation, paid by the losing party.

13. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is
determined by a court to require the Company to do or to fail to do an act that
is in violation of any applicable law, such provision shall be limited or
modified in its application to the minimum extent necessary to avoid a violation
of law, and, as so limited or modified, such provision and the balance of this
Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with their terms.

14. Successors and Assigns. The Agreement shall be binding upon all
successors and assigns of the Company, including any transferee of all or
substantially all of its assets and any successor by merger or otherwise by
operation of law, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of BARRY.

15. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings in this Agreement are
included for the convenience of the parties only and shall not affect the
construction of this Agreement.

16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, both
of which taken together shall constitute one document.

17. Amendment. No amendment, modification, termination or cancellation of
this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by each of
the parties hereto.

INDEMNITY AGREEMENT

THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT, dated as of February 12, 1999, is made and
entered into by and between BISHOP EQUITIES, INC., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company"), and EDWARD G. BROENNIMAN ("BROENNIMAN").

WHEREAS, BROENNIMAN is currently serving as a director of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Articles of Incorporation (the "Charter") of the Company
provides that the Company will indemnify, in the manner and to the fullest
extent permitted by the Nevada Revised Statutes (the "NRS"), certain persons
against specified expenses arising out of certain threatened, pending or
completed actions, suits or proceedings; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce BROENNIMAN to continue to serve the Company in
his present capacity, and to provide BROENNIMAN with specific contractual
assurance that the protection authorized by the Charter will be available to
BROENNIMAN, the Company wishes to enter into this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, the Company and BROENNIMAN hereby agree as follows:

1. Definitions. The following terms, as used herein, shall have the
following meanings.

(a) "Suit" shall mean any claim, demand, action, suit, lawsuit,
arbitration, mediation, hearing, or proceeding.

(b) "Covered Claim" shall mean any threatened, pending or completed
Suit, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by reason of the
fact that BROENNIMAN is or was a director of the Company.

(c) "Determination" shall mean a determination, based upon the facts
known at the time, made by:

(i) the Board of Directors of the Company, by the vote of a
majority of the directors who are not parties to the Suit in question, even
though less than a quorum;

(ii) if there are no such disinterested directors, or if such
disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written
opinion;

(iii) the stockholders of the Company; or

(iv) a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final,
nonappealable adjudication.

In the event that there are conflicting determinations, the determination shall
be given effect in the following order of precedence: First, by a court or
arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable adjudication;
second, to the stockholders of the Company; third, to the independent legal
counsel in a written opinion; and last, to the Board of Directors of the
Company.

(d) "Payment" shall mean all costs and expenses (including attorneys')
fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by BROENNIMAN in connection with or relating to a Covered Claim.

2. Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless
BROENNIMAN against and from any and all Payments to the extent that:

(a) the Company shall not have advanced expenses to BROENNIMAN pursuant
to the provisions of the Charter or otherwise and no Determination shall have
been made pursuant to such Charter provision or the NRS that BROENNIMAN is not
entitled to indemnification;

(b) BROENNIMAN shall not already have received payment on account of
such Payments from any third party, including, without limitation, pursuant to
one or more valid and collectible insurance policies; and

(c) such indemnification by the Company is not unlawful.

Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, except for
proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses
pursuant to Section 4 hereof , the Company shall have no obligation to indemnify
BROENNIMAN in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by
BROENNIMAN unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented
to by the Board of Directors of the Company. Further, the Company shall have no
obligation to indemnify BROENNIMAN under this Agreement for any amounts paid in
a settlement of any Suit effected without the Company's prior written consent,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall not settle
any Suit in any manner that would impose any obligation on BROENNIMAN
(regardless of whether BROENNIMAN would be entitled to indemnification for
obligations) without BROENNIMAN's prior written consent, which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld.

3. Indemnification Procedure; Advancements of Expenses.

(a) If at the time of receipt of any notice pursuant to Section 9
hereof the Company has directors' and officers' liability insurance in effect,
the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such Suit to the
insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies
in favor of BROENNIMAN. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or
desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of BROENNIMAN, all
Payments payable as a result of such Suit in accordance with the terms of such
policies.

(b) All expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred by BROENNIMAN in
defending any Covered Claim shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final
disposition of such Covered Claim upon an undertaking by or on behalf of
BROENNIMAN to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined by a court
or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction in a final, nonappealable adjudication
that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized herein.
BROENNIMAN hereby undertakes to and agrees that he will repay the Company for
any expenses advanced by or on behalf of the Company pursuant to this Section
3(b) if it shall ultimately be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction
in a final, nonappealable adjudication that BROENNIMAN is not entitled to
indemnification under this Agreement.

(c) If the Company shall advance the expenses of any such Suit pursuant
to Section (b) hereof, it shall be entitled to assume the defense of such Suit,
if appropriate, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to BROENNIMAN, upon
delivery to BROENNIMAN of written notice of its election so to do. After
delivery of such notice, the Company shall not be liable to BROENNIMAN under
this Agreement for any expenses subsequently incurred by BROENNIMAN in
connection with such defense other than reasonable expenses of investigation;
provided, however, that:

(i) BROENNIMAN shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such
Suit provided that the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after
delivery of notice by the Company of its assumption of such defense shall be at
BROENNIMAN's own expense; and

(ii) the fees and expenses of counsel employed by BROENNIMAN shall be at the
expense of the Company if (x) the employment of counsel by BROENNIMAN has
previously been authorized by the Company, (y) BROENNIMAN shall have reasonably
concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Company and
BROENNIMAN in the conduct of any such defense (provided, that the Company shall
not be required to pay for more than one counsel to represent two or more
indemnitees where such indemnitees have reasonably concluded that there is no
conflict of interest among them in the conduct of such defense) or (z) the
Company shall not, in fact, have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to
BROENNIMAN to assume the defense of such Suit.

(d) All payments on account of the Company's advancement obligations
under Section (b) hereof shall be made within 20 days of BROENNIMAN's written
request therefor. All other payments on account of the Company's obligations
under this Agreement shall be made within 60 days of BROENNIMAN's written
request therefor, unless a Determination is made that the claims giving rise to
BROENNIMAN's request are not payable under this Agreement. Each request for
payment hereunder shall be accompanied by evidence reasonably satisfactory to
the Company of BROENNIMAN's incurrence of the expenses for which such payment is
sought.

4. Enforcement of Indemnification; Burden of Proof. If a claim for
indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Agreement is not paid in
full by or on behalf of the Company within the time period specified in Section
3(d) hereof, BROENNIMAN may at any time thereafter bring suit against the
Company to recover the unpaid amount of such clam. In any such action the
Company shall have the burden of proving that indemnification is not required
under this Agreement.

5. Partial Indemnification. If BROENNIMAN is entitled under any provision
of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some portion of any
Payments, but not, however, for the total amount thereof, the Company shall
nevertheless indemnify BROENNIMAN for the portion of any such Payments to which
BROENNIMAN is entitled.

6. Right Not Exclusive. The rights to indemnification and advancement of
expenses provided hereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to
which BROENNIMAN may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise as to action in
BROENNIMAN's official capacity or as to action in another capacity while holding
such office.

7. Subrogation. In the event of payment under this Agreement by or on
behalf of the Company, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such
payment to all of the rights of recovery of BROENNIMAN, who shall execute all
papers that may be required and shall do all things that may be necessary to
secure such rights, including, without limitation, the execution of such
documents as may be necessary to enable the Company effectively to bring suit to
enforce such rights.

8. Notice of Claim. Promptly after receipt by BROENNIMAN of notice of the
commencement or threat of commencement of any civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative Suit, BROENNIMAN shall, if indemnification with respect thereto
may be sought from the Company under this Agreement, notify the Company thereof
in writing at its principal office and directed to the Corporate Secretary (or
such other address as the Company shall designate in writing to BROENNIMAN);
notice shall be deemed received if sent by prepaid mail properly addressed, the
date of such notice being the date postmarked. In addition, BROENNIMAN shall
give the Company such information and cooperation as it may reasonably require
and as shall be within BROENNIMAN's power.

9. Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, without giving
effect to the principals of conflict of laws thereunder.

10. Jurisdiction. The Company and BROENNIMAN hereby irrevocably consent to
the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Nevada for all purposes in
connection with any Suit that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, and
agree that any action instituted under this Agreement shall be brought only in
the state courts of the State of Nevada.

11. Coverage. The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to BROENNIMAN's
service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or at the
Company's request, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other
enterprise with respect to all periods of such service prior to and after the
date of this Agreement, even though BROENNIMAN may have ceased such service at
the time of indemnification hereunder.

12. Attorneys' Fees. If any Suit is commenced in connection with or related
to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to have its costs and
expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and
reasonable expenses of investigation, paid by the losing party.

13. Severability. In the event that any provision of this Agreement is
determined by a court to require the Company to do or to fail to do an act that
is in violation of any applicable law, such provision shall be limited or
modified in its application to the minimum extent necessary to avoid a violation
of law, and, as so limited or modified, such provision and the balance of this
Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with their terms.

14. Successors and Assigns. The Agreement shall be binding upon all
successors and assigns of the Company, including any transferee of all or
substantially all of its assets and any successor by merger or otherwise by
operation of law, and shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the
heirs, executors and administrators of BROENNIMAN.

15. Descriptive Headings. The descriptive headings in this Agreement are
included for the convenience of the parties only and shall not affect the
construction of this Agreement.

16. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two counterparts, both
of which taken together shall constitute one document.

17. Amendment. No amendment, modification, termination or cancellation of
this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by each of
the parties hereto.

--------, 1999


To the Shareholders of Aethlon, Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I have acted as counsel to Bishop Equities, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company") in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization for the
Acquisition of all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Aethlon, Inc.
("Aethlon") by the Company ("the Plan"). This opinion is furnished to you
pursuant to Section 1.3.6 of the Plan.

I have participated in the preparation of and have examined the proceedings
of the Company in connection with the approval thereof and the authorization of
the transactions contemplated thereby, and have further examined such corporate
records and documents of the Company and certificates of officers of the
Company, and public officials, as I have deemed relevant and necessary to enable
me to render this opinion. I have relied on the accuracy of certain
representations and warranties of the Company and Aethlon contained in the Plan
and have relied upon such records, documents and certificates with respect to
the accuracy of certain factual matters, without independent verification of the
matters covered thereby. In my examination of such records, documents and
certificates, I have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to me
as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to
me as certified or photostatic copies of original documents, the authenticity of
the originals of such latter documents, and the accuracy of the statements
contained in such certificates.

Based upon and in reliance upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:

1. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada and has all requisite
corporate power and authority to own and lease its properties and to conduct its
business as presently conducted.

2. The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 25,000,000
common shares, par value $.001 per share, of which 511,500 are issued and
outstanding; and all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock have
been duly and validly authorized and issued and are fully paid and
nonassessable, and to the best of my knowledge have not been issued in violation
of any preemptive right, co-sale right, registration right, right of first
refusal or other similar right, and such shares are free and clear of any liens
or other encumbrances.


Shareholders of Aethlon, Inc.

3. The Company has the corporate power and authority to authorize the
issuance of the common stock under the Plan, and the Board of Directors of the
Company has consented to and approved the issuance of the shares pursuant to the
Plan.

4. The delivery of the shares of common stock to the Aethlon stockholders
pursuant to the Plan has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
on the part of the Company. The 728,500 common shares to be issued to the
Aethlon shareholders, as and when delivered to the Aethlon shareholders pursuant
to the Plan, are validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable,
and are not subject to any preemptive or similar right.

5. The Plan has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the
Company and, assuming the execution and delivery thereof by Aethlon, constitutes
a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable in accordance
with its terms, except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws relating
to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
equitable principles, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law.

6. The execution, delivery and performance of the Plan by the Company, and
the delivery by the Company to Aethlon of the shares of common stock pursuant to
the terms of the Plan, will not result in a breach or violation of, or
constitute a default under, the Company's Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws,
or any statute, law, rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its
properties, provided that the required "blue sky" filings are made as will be
provided in the closing minutes.

7. The execution, delivery and performance of the Plan by the Company and
the delivery by the Company to Aethlon of the shares of common stock pursuant to
the terms of the Plan will not violate or conflict with or result in a breach of
or constitute (or event which might, with the passage of time or the giving of
notice, or both, constitute a default) under, or result in the creation or
imposition of any claim, lien, security interest, mortgage, pledge, charge or
other encumbrance of any nature upon any of the properties or assets of the
Company pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, agreement, contract,
deed of trust, promissory note, or other agreement or instrument to which the
Company is subject.

8. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration or
qualification with, any court or governmental agency or body or national
securities exchange is required to be obtained by the Company for the delivery
of the shares of common stock to Aethlon shareholders pursuant to the Plan,
which has not been made or obtained by the Company.



Shareholders of Aethlon, Inc.

9. To the best of my knowledge after due inquiry, except as disclosed in
the Plan, there are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending to
which the Company is a party, before or by any court or governmental agency or
body which in my opinion would result, individually or in the aggregate, in any
material adverse change in the prospects, financial condition or results of
operations of the Company or which would materially and adversely affect the
properties or assets thereof, taken as a whole, or which seeks to restrain or
prohibit the transactions contemplated by the Plan; and, to the best of my
knowledge after due inquiry, no such actions, suits, investigations or
proceedings are threatened by any person, corporation or governmental agency or
body.

This opinion is rendered solely for the benefit of Aethlon with respect to
the shares of common stock to be delivered under the Plan, and is not to be
used, circulated, quoted or referred to, or otherwise relied upon by any person,
without my prior written consent.

Sincerely,




Maureen Abato

HEMEX SCHEDULE OF EXCEPTIONS

Section 3.6 Financial Statements

1. Hemex Financial Statements for December 31, 1997 and September 30, 1998
have been prepared internally, and have not been subject to audit or
review. While management believes that these statements represent in
all material respects the financial condition of Hemex on these dates,
they have not applied generally accepted accounting principals in a
manner consistent with the audited statements for the year ended
December 31, 1996 in the following respects:

Generally accepted accounting principals require that a deferred
compensation liability be discounted from its face value, to the
extent of the time between the statement date and the point in the
future when such deferred compensation is likely to be paid, usually
when the company expects to sell its product. The face value of
deferred compensation has been used in internal statements.

Generally accepted accounting principals require that Hemex, as a
Development Stage Enterprise, present cumulative results from
inception of the company as well as results for the period. This
format is used in the audited statements for the year ended
December 31, 1996, but not in the internal statements.

Section 3.16 Contracts and Commitments

1. Hemex is party to an Employment Agreement dated April 1, 1997 with its
President and CEO, Franklyn S. Barry, Jr. This agreement requires,
among other provisions, payment of salary of $9,000 per month and
contribution to health insurance of $350 per month. Upon completion of
the reorganization between Bishop and Hemex, Barry will become an employee
of Bishop and this Agreement will cease. Through September 30, 1998,
Barry had received no payments of salary or contribution to health
insurance under this Agreement.

Section 3.19 Arrangements with Employees

1. Although there is no formal deferred compensation plan between Hemex and
its former and current officers, the Board of Directors of Hemex has
directed that all unpaid salary of officers be accrued as a liability of
the company. Four officers have the following deferred compensation
accrued at September 30, 1998:

Clara M. Ambrus Chairman of the Board $189,744
Franklyn S. Barry, Jr. President and CEO $162,000
Linda A. Broenniman Former President and CEO $ 65,770
