Item 1.01                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 1, 2010, we entered into a Technology Option Agreement with the Mayo Foundation for Education and Research for the clinical development of a breast cancer vaccine technology.  Subject to the approval and guidance of the US Food and Drug Administration, Mayo Clinic plans to conduct a Phase I clinical trial in breast cancer patients who have a form of breast cancer that express Her2/neu receptors (also called Her2/neu breast cancer).  Under the Agreement, Mayo granted TapImmune an exclusive option to license this technology in exchange for an option fee of $65,000 and our agreement to pay up to $841,000 for the Phase I trial as part of a Sponsored Research Agreement. We can exercise the option upon the conclusion of the Phase I clinical trials under terms agreed between Mayo Clinic and TapImmune in a Patent and Technology License Agreement.

Item 7.01                      Regulation FD Disclosure.

On June 1, 2010, we issued a press release entitled “TapImmune Executes a Licensing Option Agreement for a Breast Cancer Vaccine Technology”. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
