THIS THIRD AMENDMENT TO DEVELOPMENT AND COMMERCIALIZATION AGREEMENT (this “Third Amendment”) is made as of the 15th day of November, 2011, by and between Artann Laboratories, Inc. (“Artann”), a New Jersey corporation and ProUroCare Medical Inc. (“ProUroCare”), a Nevada corporation.

RECITALS

A.           Artann and ProUroCare (“the Parties”) entered into a Development and Commercialization Agreement (“the Development Agreement”) and License Agreement (“the License Agreement”) on July 25, 2008 relating to a Prostate Mechanical Imaging System (the “PMI System”).

B.           The Parties have concurrently entered into the Development Agreement and License Agreement with the understanding and agreement that both Agreements and their Amendments are to be complied with simultaneously.

C.           The Parties have put forward their best efforts and have performed their obligations in full compliance to date with the Development Agreement.

D.           On May 2, 2011, FDA outlined its position in the “Draft Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff – Processing/Reprocessing Medical Devices in Health Care Settings: Validation Methods and Labeling,” which significantly expanded the agency’s prior requirements for the cleaning and disinfection validation clearance of medical systems.

E.           The Parties now wish to amend the Development Agreement as provided herein.

Now, therefore, in consideration of the covenants and agreements set forth herein and for valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Parties mutually agree as follows:
