Item 1.01 Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement.

     On November 29, 2011, we entered into the 2011 Amended and Restated Purchase and Supply Agreement with National Biological Corporation, or NBC, the principal manufacturer of our BLU-U^® brand light source (the “2011 Amended and Restated Agreement”). The 2011 Amended and Restated Agreement includes similar terms and conditions to our Amended and Restated Purchase and Supply Agreement dated as of June 21, 2004, as amended, (the “2004 Agreement”) with NBC, including but not limited to, permitting us to order on a purchase order basis without minimums and providing for a new tiered price schedule based on the volume of purchases. The 2011 Agreement replaces the 2004 Agreement, which was due to expire on December 31, 2011. In addition, the 2011 Amended and Restated Agreement continues to provide us with flexibility related to the development and manufacture of light sources and the associated technology within the field of photodynamic therapy. The term of the 2011 Amended and Restated Agreement continues until December 31, 2013, and provides us with an option to extend the term for an additional two (2) years if we purchase a certain number of units.
