First Amendment to the

Technology License and Escrow Agreement

This First Amendment to the Technology License and Escrow Agreement (“First Amendment”), is entered into as of February 6, 2013 (“Effective Date”), by and between Cbr Systems Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CBR’) and ThermoGenesis Corp., a Delaware corporation (“ThermoGenesis”).

BACKGROUND

The parties entered into a Technology License and Escrow Agreement dated June 15, 2010 (the “License and Escrow Agreement”) to license and make available to CBR certain technical information for the limited purpose of allowing CBR to manufacture, upon a default of ThermoGenesis under the License and Escrow Agreement, certain products currently being sold to CBR.

B.	Under Section 3 of the License and Escrow Agreement, a Default occurs if ThermoGenesis fails to meet certain financial covenants. In the event of a Default, the Escrow Agent will release the Deposit Materials to CBR.

C.	The parties have agreed to amend Section 3 of the License and Escrow Agreement to alter the financial covenants that will cause Default, and to add an additional section to provide to CBR an additional remedy in the event of a Default.
