Further to the October 19, 2010 press release of LIFE SCIENCES INSTITUTE INC.
(the "Corporation" or "Life Sciences") (TSX VENTURE:LSN), the Corporation wishes
to provide an update on the status of its Change of Business ("COB").


The COB is comprised of two parts, being the acquisition of certain oil and gas
assets (the "Acquisition"), and the disposition of the non-oil and gas assets of
the Corporation (the "Disposition"), each as set out in the October 19, 2010
press release. The COB remains subject to the concurrent closing of the two
previously announced offerings, the FT Offering and the SFOD Offering, each as
defined in the October 19, 2010 press release. There is no assurance that the
SFOD Offering, the FT Offering or the COB will be completed. 


On December 29, 2010, the Corporation filed an annual information form ("AIF").
The AIF is available on SEDAR (www.sedar.com). The filing of the AIF is a
requirement in order for the Corporation to pursue the SFOD Offering through the
short-form offering document ("SFOD") of the TSX Venture Exchange ("TSXV").


The Corporation is pleased to announce that it intends to file the SFOD with the
TSXV prior to the end of January. Once conditional approval of the SFOD is
obtained from the TSXV, Wolverton Securities Ltd., as agent, will commence
marketing the SFOD offering. As per TSXV policy 4.6, once TSXV approval is
received for the SFOD, the agent will have 60 days to market and sell the SFOD
Offering. After the 60 day period is complete, the Company will have until April
29, 2011 to submit final documentation to the TSXV in respect of the COB and the
related transactions. In order to proceed with the COB and related transactions,
the Corporation requires a minimum of $2,850,000 in gross proceeds from the
offerings.


The Corporation intends to use the net proceeds received from the SFOD Offering
to cover certain general administrative expenses and certain expenses relative
to maintaining certain of the oil and gas assets acquired. In addition, the
Corporation intends to use the FT Offering proceeds to complete the 3D/3C
seismic survey over the Corporation's land holdings in Saskatchewan and complete
the drilling of two of the highest ranked oil targets previously identified with
2D seismic. The Corporation's intended use of proceeds may be varied if doing so
is deemed by management to be in the best interests of the Corporation. 


The COB and related matters were approved by the shareholders of the Corporation
at the June 3, 2010 shareholders meeting. Details about the COB and related
matters can be found in the Corporation's Information Circular dated April 30,
2010, as filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com).
