                         COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

       COMMON STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement"), dated as of March 21,
2007, by and between AETHLON MEDICAL, INC., a Nevada corporation (the
"Company"), and FUSION CAPITAL FUND II, LLC, an Illinois limited liability
company (the "Buyer"). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined
herein are defined in Section 10 hereof.

                                    WHEREAS:

         Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the
Company wishes to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer wishes to buy from the
Company, up to Eight Million Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($8,400,000.00) of
the Company's common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"). The
shares of Common Stock to be purchased hereunder are referred to herein as the
"Purchase Shares."

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

       1.      PURCHASE OF COMMON STOCK.

       Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the
Company has the right to sell to the Buyer, and the Buyer has the obligation to
purchase from the Company, Purchase Shares as follows:

       (a)     Initial Purchase; Commencement of Base and Block Purchases of
Common Stock. On the Filing Date (as defined in Section 4(a) hereof), the Buyer
shall buy from the Company as of such date Four Hundred Thousand Dollars
($400,000.00) of Purchase Shares (the "Initial Purchase" and such Purchase
Shares are referred to herein as the "Initial Purchase Shares") at the lesser of
(i) the Purchase Price as of the Business Day prior to the Filing Date, or (ii)
$0.30. The Initial Purchase Shares shall be issued in certificated form and
(subject to Section 5 hereof) shall bear only the restrictive legend set forth
in Section 4(e) hereof. Thereafter, the purchase and sale of Purchase Shares
hereunder shall occur from time to time upon written notices by the Company to
the Buyer on the terms and conditions as set forth herein following the
satisfaction of the conditions (the "Commencement") as set forth in Sections 6
and 7 below (the date of satisfaction of such conditions, the "Commencement
Date").

       (b)     The Company's Right to Require Purchases. Any time on or after the
Commencement Date, the Company shall have the right but not the obligation to
direct the Buyer by its delivery to the Buyer of Base Purchase Notices from time
to time to buy Purchase Shares (each such purchase a "Base Purchase") in any
amount up to Thirty Two Thousand Dollars ($32,000.00) per Base Purchase Notice
(the "Base Purchase Amount") at the Purchase Price on the Purchase Date. The
Company may deliver multiple Base Purchase Notices to the Buyer so long as at
least two (2) Business Days have passed since the most recent Base Purchase was
completed. Notwithstanding the forgoing, any time on or after the Commencement
Date, the Company shall also have the right but not the obligation by its
delivery to the Buyer of Block Purchase Notices from time to time to direct the
Buyer to buy Purchase Shares (each such purchase a "Block Purchase") in any
amount up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per Block Purchase Notice at
the Block Purchase Price on the Purchase Date as provided herein. For a Block
Purchase Notice to be valid the following conditions must be met: (1) the Block
Purchase Amount shall not exceed Fifty Thousand Dollars ($50,000.00) per Block
Purchase Notice, (2) the Company must deliver the Purchase Shares before 11:00


                                        1
<PAGE>

a.m. eastern time on the Purchase Date and (3) the Sale Price of the Common
Stock must not be below $0.30 (subject to equitable adjustment for any
reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other
similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the delivery of the
Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the delivery of the
Block Purchase Notice. The Block Purchase Amount may be increased to up to One
Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) per Block Purchase Notice if the Sale
Price of the Common Stock is not below $0.40 (subject to equitable adjustment
for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or
other similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the delivery of
the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the delivery of
the Block Purchase Notice. The Block Purchase Amount may be increased to up to
Two Hundred Thousand Dollars ($200,000.00) per Block Purchase Notice if the Sale
Price of the Common Stock is not below $0.55 (subject to equitable adjustment
for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or
other similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the delivery of
the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the delivery of
the Block Purchase Notice. The Block Purchase Amount may be increased to up to
Four Hundred Thousand Dollars ($400,000.00) per Block Purchase Notice if the
Sale Price of the Common Stock is not below $0.70 (subject to equitable
adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock
split or other similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the
delivery of the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the
delivery of the Block Purchase Notice. The Block Purchase Amount may be
increased to up to One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) per Block Purchase Notice
if the Sale Price of the Common Stock is not below $1.50 (subject to equitable
adjustment for any reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock
split or other similar transaction) during the Purchase Date, the date of the
delivery of the Block Purchase Notice and during the Business Day prior to the
delivery of the Block Purchase Notice. As used herein, the term "Block Purchase
Price" shall mean the lesser of (i) the lowest Sale Price of the Common Stock on
the Purchase Date or (ii) the lowest Purchase Price during the previous seven
(7) Business Days prior to the date that the valid Block Purchase Notice was
received by the Buyer. However, if at any time during the Purchase Date, the
date of the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice or during the Business Day
prior to the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice, the Sale Price of the Common
Stock is below the applicable Block Purchase threshold price, such Block
Purchase shall be void and the Buyer's obligations to buy Purchase Shares in
respect of that Block Purchase Notice shall be terminated. Thereafter, the
Company shall again have the right to submit a Block Purchase Notice as set
forth herein by delivery of a new Block Purchase Notice only if the Sale Price
of the Common Stock is above the applicable Block Purchase threshold price
during the date of the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice and during the
Business Day prior to the delivery of the Block Purchase Notice. The Company may
deliver multiple Block Purchase Notices to the Buyer so long as at least two (2)
Business Days have passed since the most recent Block Purchase was completed.

       (c)     Payment for Purchase Shares. The Buyer shall pay to the Company an
amount equal to the Purchase Amount with respect to such Purchase Shares as full
payment for such Purchase Shares via wire transfer of immediately available
funds on the same Business Day that the Buyer receives such Purchase Shares if
they are received by the Buyer before 11:00 a.m. eastern time or if received by
the Buyer after 11:00 a.m. eastern time, the next Business Day. The Company
shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any purchase. If
the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common
Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up or
down to the nearest whole share. All payments made under this Agreement shall be
made in lawful money of the United States of America or wire transfer of
immediately available funds to such account as the Company may from time to time
designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
Whenever any amount expressed to be due by the terms of this Agreement is due on
any day that is not a Business Day, the same shall instead be due on the next
succeeding day that is a Business Day.

       (d)     Purchase Price Floor. The Company and the Buyer shall not effect
any sales under this Agreement on any Purchase Date where the Purchase Price for
any purchases of Purchase Shares would be less than the Floor Price. "Floor
Price" means $0.25, which shall be appropriately adjusted for any
reorganization, recapitalization, non-cash dividend, stock split or other
similar transaction.

       (e)     Records of Purchases. The Buyer and the Company shall each
maintain records showing the remaining Available Amount at any give time and the
dates and Purchase Amounts for each purchase or shall use such other method,
reasonably satisfactory to the Buyer and the Company.

acquiring the Commitment Shares, (as defined in Section 4(e) hereof) (this

Buyer's right to rely on the Company's representations and warranties contained
in Section 3 below. The Buyer has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice
as it has considered necessary to make an informed investment decision with
respect to its acquisition of the Securities.


                                       3

       (e)     No Governmental Review. The Buyer understands that no United

fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities nor have such
authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the
Securities.

       (f)     Transfer or Sale. The Buyer understands that except as provided in
the Registration Rights Agreement (as defined in Section 4(a) hereof): (i) the
Securities have not been and are not being registered under the 1933 Act or any
state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or
transferred unless (A) subsequently registered thereunder or (B) an exemption
exists permitting such Securities to be sold, assigned or transferred without
such registration; (ii) any sale of the Securities made in reliance on Rule 144

underwriter (as that term is defined in the 1933 Act) may require compliance
with some other exemption under the 1933 Act or the rules and regulations of the
SEC thereunder; and (iii) neither the Company nor any other person is under any
obligation to register the Securities under the 1933 Act or any state securities
laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder.

       (g)     Validity; Enforcement. This Agreement has been duly and validly
authorized, executed and delivered on behalf of the Buyer and is a valid and
binding agreement of the Buyer enforceable against the Buyer in accordance with
its terms, subject as to enforceability to general principles of equity and to
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation and
other similar laws relating to, or affecting generally, the enforcement of
applicable creditors' rights and remedies.

personal property owned by them which is material to the business of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, in each case free and clear of all liens, encumbrances and
defects except such as are described in Schedule 3(m) or such as do not
materially affect the value of such property and do not interfere with the use
made and proposed to be made of such property by the Company and any of its
Subsidiaries. Any real property and facilities held under lease by the Company
and any of its Subsidiaries are held by them under valid, subsisting and
enforceable leases with such exceptions as are not material and do not interfere
with the use made and proposed to be made of such property and buildings by the
Company and its Subsidiaries.

       (n)     Insurance. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries are insured by
insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks
and in such amounts as management of the Company believes to be prudent and
customary in the businesses in which the Company and its Subsidiaries are
engaged. Neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has been refused any
insurance coverage sought or applied for and neither the Company nor any such
Subsidiary has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its
existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain
similar coverage from similar insurers as may be necessary to continue its
business at a cost that would not materially and adversely affect the condition,
financial or otherwise, or the earnings, business or operations of the Company
and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

       (o)     Regulatory Permits. The Company and its Subsidiaries possess all
material certificates, authorizations and permits issued by the appropriate
federal, state or foreign regulatory authorities necessary to conduct their
respective businesses, and neither the Company nor any such Subsidiary has
received any notice of proceedings relating to the revocation or modification of
any such certificate, authorization or permit.

       (p)     Tax Status. The Company and each of its Subsidiaries has made or
filed all federal and state income and all other material tax returns, reports
and declarations required by any jurisdiction to which it is subject (unless and
only to the extent that the Company and each of its Subsidiaries has set aside
on its books provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all unpaid and
unreported taxes) and has paid all taxes and other governmental assessments and
charges that are material in amount, shown or determined to be due on such
returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith
and has set aside on its books provision reasonably adequate for the payment of
all taxes for periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports
or declarations apply. There are no unpaid taxes in any material amount claimed
to be due by the taxing authority of any jurisdiction, and the officers of the
Company know of no basis for any such claim.

       (q)     Transactions With Affiliates. Except as set forth on Schedule 3(q)
and other than the grant or exercise of stock options disclosed on Schedule
3(c), none of the officers, directors, or employees of the Company is presently
a party to any transaction with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (other
than for services as employees, officers and directors), including any contract,
agreement or other arrangement providing for the furnishing of services to or
by, providing for rental of real or personal property to or from, or otherwise
requiring payments to or from any officer, director or such employee or, to the
knowledge of the Company, any corporation, partnership, trust or other entity in
which any officer, director, or any such employee has an interest or is an
officer, director, trustee or partner.

       (r)     Application of Takeover Protections. The Company and its board of
directors have taken or will take prior to the Commencement Date all necessary
action, if any, in order to render inapplicable any control share acquisition,
business combination, poison pill (including any distribution under a rights
agreement) or other similar anti-takeover provision under the Certificate of
Incorporation or the laws of the state of its incorporation which is or could
become applicable to the Buyer as a result of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Company's issuance of the
Securities and the Buyer's ownership of the Securities.

       (s)     Foreign Corrupt Practices. Neither the Company, nor any of its
Subsidiaries, nor any director, officer, agent, employee or other person acting
on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries has, in the course of its
actions for, or on behalf of, the Company, used any corporate funds for any
unlawful contribution, gift, entertainment or other unlawful expenses relating
to political activity; made any direct or indirect unlawful payment to any
foreign or domestic government official or employee from corporate funds;
violated or is in violation of any provision of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act of 1977, as amended; or made any unlawful bribe, rebate, payoff,
influence payment, kickback or other unlawful payment to any foreign or domestic
government official or employee.

       4.      COVENANTS.

       (a)     Filing of Form 8-K and Registration Statement. The Company agrees
that it shall, within the time required under the 1934 Act file a Report on Form
8-K disclosing this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby. The
Company shall also file within ten (10) Business Days from the date hereof a new
registration statement covering only the sale of the Commitment Shares and
7,333,333 Purchase Shares (which includes the 1,333,333 Initial Purchase Shares)
in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement between the
Company and the Buyer, dated as of the date hereof ("Registration Rights
Agreement"). After such registration statement is declared effective by the SEC,
the Company agrees and acknowledges that any sales by the Company to the Buyer
pursuant to this Agreement are sales of the Company's equity securities in a
transaction that is registered under the 1933 Act.

       (b)     Blue Sky. The Company shall take such action, if any, as is
reasonably necessary in order to obtain an exemption for or to qualify (i) the
initial sale of the Commitment Shares and any Purchase Shares to the Buyer under
this Agreement and (ii) any subsequent sale of the Commitment Shares and any
Purchase Shares by the Buyer, in each case, under applicable securities or "Blue
Sky" laws of the states of the United States in such states as is reasonably
requested by the Buyer from time to time, and shall provide evidence of any such
action so taken to the Buyer.

       (c)     Listing. The Company shall promptly secure the listing of all of
the Purchase Shares and Commitment Shares upon each national securities exchange
and automated quotation system, if any, upon which shares of Common Stock are
then listed (subject to official notice of issuance) and shall maintain, so long
as any other shares of Common Stock shall be so listed, such listing of all such
securities from time to time issuable under the terms of the Transaction
Documents. The Company shall maintain the Common Stock's authorization for
quotation on the Principal Market. Neither the Company nor any of its
Subsidiaries shall take any action that would be reasonably expected to result
in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on the Principal Market. The
Company shall promptly, and in no event later than the following Business Day,
provide to the Buyer copies of any notices it receives from the Principal Market
regarding the continued eligibility of the Common Stock for listing on such
automated quotation system or securities exchange. The Company shall pay all
fees and expenses in connection with satisfying its obligations under this
Section.

       (d)     Limitation on Short Sales and Hedging Transactions. The Buyer
agrees that beginning on the date of this Agreement and ending on the date of
termination of this Agreement as provided in Section 11(k), the Buyer and its
agents, representatives and affiliates shall not in any manner whatsoever enter
into or effect, directly or indirectly, any (i) "short sale" (as such term is
defined in Section 242.200 of Regulation SHO of the 1934 Act) of the Common
Stock or (ii) hedging transaction, which establishes a net short position with
respect to the Common Stock.

       (e)     Issuance of Commitment Shares; Limitation on Sales of Commitment
Shares. Immediately upon the execution of this Agreement, the Company shall
issue to the Buyer as consideration for the Buyer entering into this Agreement
1,050,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Commitment Shares"). The Commitment
Shares shall be issued in certificated form and (subject to Section 5 hereof)
shall bear the following restrictive legend and no other restrictive legend:

       THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED
       UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE
       SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY
       NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED IN THE ABSENCE OF
       AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE
       SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS,
       UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO: (1) RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
       AS AMENDED, OR (2) AN OPINION OF HOLDER'S COUNSEL, IN A CUSTOMARY FORM,
       THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE
       SECURITIES LAWS.

       The Buyer agrees that the Buyer shall not transfer or sell the Commitment
Shares until the earlier of 500 Business Days (25 Monthly Periods) from the date
hereof or the date on which this Agreement has been terminated, provided,
however, that such restrictions shall not apply: (i) in connection with any
transfers to or among affiliates (as defined in the 1934 Act), (ii) in
connection with any pledge in connection with a bona fide loan or margin
account, (iii) in the event that the Commencement does not occur on or before
July 1, 2007, due to the failure of the Company to satisfy the conditions set
forth in Section 7 or (iv) if an Event of Default has occurred, or any event
which, after notice and/or lapse of time, would become an Event of Default,
including any failure by the Company to timely issue Purchase Shares under this
Agreement. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Buyer may transfer Commitment
Shares to a third party in order to settle a sale made by the Buyer where the
Buyer reasonably expects the Company to deliver Purchase Shares to the Buyer
under this Agreement so long as the Buyer maintains ownership of the same
overall number of shares of Common Stock by "replacing" the Commitment Shares so
transferred with Purchase Shares when the Purchase Shares are actually issued by
the Company to the Buyer.

       (g)     Due Diligence. The Buyer shall have the right, from time to time
as the Buyer may reasonably d
