Exhibit 10.9

AMENDMENT TO CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTES

        AGREEMENT, dated as of May 11, 2005, between and among Minrad International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Borrower"), Laird Cagan ("Cagan"), and the Morrie Tobin Family Trust (the "Trust"), (Cagan and the Trust being, collectively, the "Lenders").

Background Statement

        The predecessor to the Borrower, Minrad International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the "Predecessor"), executed and delivered to the Lenders certain Convertible Promissory Notes, one dated February 8, 2005 in the face amount of $1,500,000 made payable to the Trust, and one dated February 15, 2005 in the face amount of $1,000,000 made payable to Cagan, (collectively, the Notes). By operation of law, the Borrower has succeeded to the obligations of the Predecessor, including the obligations under the Notes. The Borrower and the Lenders would now like to modify certain of the terms of the Notes as provided in this Agreement. The Notes were issued in connection with certain other Loan Documents, dated February 2005, by and among the parties hereto and referenced in the Notes, including a Mortgage and Security Agreement, the Guarantee Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreements, the Warrant Agreements, the Note Subscription Agreements, and other loan and collateral documents evidencing or securing the obligation (collectively, the "Loan Documents').

AGREEMENT

        NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

        1. Section 1 of the Note is amended by adding the following definition:

"BANK BORROWING" means the outstanding indebtedness owed by any Companies to one or more banks."

        2. The first sentence under "Section 2.(d) OPTIONAL PREPAYMENT." of the Note is deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following sentence:

"In the event that the aggregate Bank Borrowing of any Companies (on a consolidated basis) exceeds $5 Million Dollars ($5,000,000), then commencing seven (7) business days thereafter the Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, to elect to prepay the outstanding principal balance of, and accrued interest on, this Note."

        3. The first sentence under "Section 2.(e) OPTIONAL ACCELERATION." is deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following sentence:

"In the event that the aggregate Bank Borrowing of any Companies (on a consolidated basis) exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), then commencing seven (7) business days thereafter the Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its sole discretion, to elect to accelerate the Maturity Date of this Note, and make this Note payable on demand, including the outstanding principal balance of, and accrued interest on, this Note, in whole or in part."

        4. The first two sentences under "Section 8. CONVERSION RIGHTS. (a) CONVERSION PRIVILEGE." are deleted in their entirety and replaced with the following:

"If, subsequent to the date of this Note, the aggregate Bank Borrowing of any Company (on a consolidated basis) exceeds Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000), then commencing on such date and continuing until the payment in full of this Note, Lender, at its option, may convert all or any portion of the outstanding principal balance of, and all accrued interest on, this Note into the number of shares of Common Stock obtained by dividing (i) the unpaid principal balance of, and interest through the date of conversion on, this Note to be converted, by (ii) the Conversion Price."

        7. Except as specifically amended by this Agreement, each of the Notes and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with New York law. This Agreement, and the Loan Documents, represent the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter, and any amendment or modification to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents must be in writing and signed by the parties.

        8. The Borrower further acknowledges that as of the date hereof, it has not complied with its closing obligations under Section 1(d) of the Note Subscription Agreement, and the Borrower hereby covenants that within ten (10) business days following the execution of this Agreement, the Borrower will deliver a second mortgage on the Borrower's facility located at 3950 Schelden Circle, Bethlehem, Pennsylvania 18017, and a security interest in all personal property at that location, in a form substantially similar to the Mortgage and Security Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit A, that will secure the notes subscribed for, as described in the Notes, as amended, and the referenced therein. A breach of this obligation shall be considered an "Event of Default" under the Notes.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed, all as of date first above written.

Section 3.4.     PAYMENT OF TAXES, ETC.

                        (a)     Borrower shall promptly pay by the date same are initially payable all taxes, assessments, impact fees, levies, inspection and license fees, water rates, sewer rents and other governmental impositions, including, without limitation, vault and meter charges and license fees for the use of vaults, chutes and similar areas adjoining the Land, now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Property or any part thereof (the "Taxes") not paid from the

8

Escrow Fund (hereinafter defined), all ground rents, maintenance charges and similar charges, now or hereafter levied or assessed or imposed against the Property or any part thereof (the "Other Charges"), and all charges for utility services provided to the Property as same become due and payable. Borrower will deliver to Lender, receipts or other, evidence satisfactory to Lender that the Taxes, Other Charges and utility service charges have been so paid or are not then delinquent. Borrower shall not suffer and shall promptly cause to be paid and discharged any lien or charge whatsoever, which may be or become a lien or charge against the Property, except to the extent sums sufficient to pay all Taxes and Other Charges have been deposited with Lender in accordance with the terms of this Security Instrument.

                        (b)     After prior written notice to Lender, Borrower, at its own expense, may contest by appropriate legal proceeding, promptly initiated and conducted in good faith and with due diligence, the amount or validity or application in whole or in part of any of the Taxes, provided that (i) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Note, this Security Instrument or any of the Other Security Documents, (ii) Borrower is permitted to do so under the provisions of any other mortgage, deed of trust or deed to secure debt affecting the Property, (iii) such proceeding shall suspend the collection of the Taxes from Borrower and from the Property or Borrower shall have paid all of the Taxes under protest, (iv) such proceeding shall be permitted under and be conducted in accordance with the provisions of any other instrument to which Borrower is subject and shall not constitute a default thereunder, (v) neither the Property nor any part thereof or interest therein will be in danger of being sold, forfeited, terminated, canceled or lost and (vi) Borrower shall have deposited with Lender adequate reserves (determined by Lender in its sole discretion) for the payment of the Taxes, together with all interest and penalties thereon, unless Borrower has paid all of the Taxes under protest, and Borrower shall have furnished such other security as may be required in the proceeding, or as may be reasonably requested by Lender to insure the payment of any contested Taxes, together with all interest and penalties thereon, taking into consideration the amount in the Escrow Fund available for payment of Taxes.

Section 3.5     ESCROW FUND.     In addition to the initial deposits with respect to Taxes and Insurance Premiums made by Borrower to Lender on the date hereof to be held by Lender in escrow, Borrower shall pay to Lender on the first day of each calendar month (a) one-twelfth of an amount which would be sufficient to cover the payment of the Taxes payable, or estimated by Lender to be payable, during the next ensuing twelve (12) months and (b) one-twelfth of an amount which would be sufficient to pay the Insurance Premiums due for the renewal of the coverage afforded by the Policies upon the expiration thereof (the amounts in (a) and (b) above shall be called the "Escrow Fund"). Borrower agrees to notify Lender immediately of any changes to the amounts, schedules and instructions for payment of any Taxes and Insurance Premiums of which it has or obtains knowledge and authorizes Lender or its agent to obtain the bills for Taxes directly from the appropriate taxing authority. The Escrow Fund and the payments of interest or principal or both, payable pursuant to the Note shall be added together and shall be paid as an aggregate sum by Borrower to Lender. Provided there are sufficient amounts in the Escrow fund and no Event of Default exists, Lender shall be obligated to pay the Taxes and Insurance Premiums as they become due on their respective due dates on behalf of Borrower by applying the Escrow Fund to the payments of such Taxes and Insurance Premiums required to be made by Borrower. If the amount of the Escrow Fund shall exceed the amounts

9

reasonably necessary for the payment of Taxes and Insurance Premiums, Lender shall, in its discretion, return any excess to Borrower or credit such excess against future payments to be made to the Escrow Fund. In allocating such excess, Lender may deal with the person shown on the records of Lender to be the owner of the Property. If the Escrow Fund is not sufficient to pay the items set forth in (a) and (b) above as and when they are due, Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender, upon demand, an amount which Lender shall reasonably estimate as sufficient to make up the deficiency. Unless otherwise required by applicable state or federal law, the Escrow Fund shall not constitute a trust fund and may be commingled with other monies held by Lender. Unless otherwise required by applicable state or federal law, no earnings or interest on the Escrow Fund shall be payable to Borrower. Upon payment in full of the Debt, and full performance of the Obligations, the funds remaining in the Escrow Fund, if any, shall be paid to the record owner of the Land encumbered by the lien of this Security Instrument within a reasonable time following the date of such full payment and performance.

Section 3.6.     CONDEMNATION.     Borrower shall promptly give Lender notice of the actual or threatened commencement of any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding and shall deliver to Lender copies of any and all papers, documents, surveys and correspondence served or received in connection with such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi-public authority through eminent domain or otherwise (including, but not limited to any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Debt at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Note and in this Security Instrument and the Debt shall not be reduced until any award or payment therefor shall have been actually received and applied by Lender, after the deduction of expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Debt. Lender shall not be limited to the interest paid on the award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the award interest at the rate or rates provided in the Note. Borrower hereby assigns and shall cause all awards and payments made in any condemnation or eminent domain proceeding, to be paid directly to Lender.

Notwithstanding any application of condemnation proceeds by Lender to the Debt, Borrower shall repair, restore and rebuild the Property affected by the condemnation to a condition as close to that existing prior to such condemnation as is reasonable practicable, and otherwise sufficient for the use and enjoyment thereof as determined by Lender.

Section 3.7     CASUALTY.

10

                        (a)     If all or any part of the Property shall be damaged or destroyed by a casualty covered by insurance, Lender is authorized and empowered (but not obligated or required) to make proof of loss, damage or destruction under any policies of insurance required under this Mortgage. All proceeds of insurance shall be paid to Lender and shall be applied first to the payment of all costs and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by Lender in obtaining such proceeds, and second, at the option of Lender, either to the payment of the Debt, whether or not due, in such order as Lender may elect, or to the restoration, repair or replacement of the Property. If Lender elects, in its sole discretion, to apply the insurance proceeds to the restoration, repair or replacement of the Property, such proceeds shall be disbursed to or for Borrower's account as work progresses pursuant to a construction and disbursing agreement in form and content satisfactory to Lender in its sole discretion. The election by Lender to apply the insurance proceeds to the restoration, repair or replacement of the Property shall not affect the lien of this Security Instrument or affect or reduce the sums secured hereby (including but not limited to the continuing accrual of interest under the Note); and this Security Instrument shall remain in full force and effect, and Borrower shall not be excused in the payment or performance thereof.

                        (b)     If all or any part of the Property shall be damaged or destroyed by a casualty (whether or not covered by insurance), Borrower shall immediately give written notice thereof to Lender and the appropriate insurer, if any, and Borrower shall promptly and diligently, at Borrower's sole cost and expense and regardless of whether the insurance proceeds, if any, shall be sufficient or available for the purpose, restore, repair and rebuild the Property to the equivalent of its condition immediately prior to the casualty.

                        (c)     If any work required to be performed under this Section shall involve an estimated expenditure of more than Ten Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($10,000.00), no such work shall be undertaken until plans and specifications thereof, prepared by an architect satisfactory to Lender, have been submitted to and approved in writing by Lender.

Section 3.8.     LEASES AND RENTS.

                        (a)     Borrower may from time to time enter into proposed Leases (including the renewals or extensions of existing Leases ("a Renewal Lease") without the prior written consent of Lender, so long as (A) there is no Event of Default (or other default, but for the passing of any applicable grace period or cure period would be an Event of Default) and (B) such proposed Lease or Renewal Lease (i) provides for rental rates and terms comparable to existing local market rates and terms (taking into account the type and quality of the tenant) as of the date such Lease is executed by Borrower (unless, in the case of a Renewal Lease, the rent payable during such renewal, or a formula or other method to compute such rent, is provided for in the original Lease), (ii) is an arms-length transaction with a bona fide, independent third party tenant, (iii) does not have a materially adverse effect on the value of the Property taken as a whole, (iv) is subject and subordinate to the Security Instrument and the lessee thereunder agrees to subordinate the Lease or Renewal Lease to the lien of this Security Instrument, and (v) if required by Lender, is written on the standard form of lease approved by Lender. All proposed Leases which do not satisfy the requirements set forth in this paragraph shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender and its counsel, at Borrower's expense. Borrower shall promptly

11

deliver to Lender copies of all Leases which are entered into pursuant to this Subsection together with Borrower's certification that it has satisfied all of the conditions of this Subsection.

                        (b)     Borrower (i) shall observe and perform all the obligations imposed upon the lessor under the Leases and shall not do or permit to be done anything to impair the value of any of the Leases as security for the Debt; (ii) upon request, shall promptly send copies to Lender of all notices of default which Borrower shall send or receive thereunder; (iii) shall enforce all of the material terms, covenants and conditions contained in the Leases upon the part of the tenant thereunder to be observed or performed; (iv) shall not collect any of the Rents more than one (1) month in advance (security deposits shall not be deemed Rents collected in advance); (v) shall not execute any other assignment of the lessor's interest in any of the Leases or the Rents; and (vi) shall not consent to any assignment of or subletting under any Leases not in accordance with their terms, without the prior written consent of Lender.

                        (c)     Borrower may, without the consent of Lender, amend, modify or waive any provisions of any Lease or terminate, reduce rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Lease (including any guaranty, letter of credit or other credit support with respect thereto) provided that such action (taking into account, in the case of a termination, reduction in rent, surrender of space or shortening of term, the planned alternative use of the affected space) does not have a materially adverse effect on the value of the Property taken as a whole, and provided that such Lease, as amended, modified or waived, is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of this Security Instrument and any subordination agreement binding upon Lender with respect to such Lease. A termination of a Lease with a tenant who is in default beyond applicable notice and grace periods shall not be considered an action which has a materially adverse effect on the value of the Property taken as a whole. Any amendment, modification, waiver, termination, rent reduction, space surrender or term shortening which does not satisfy the requirements set forth in this Subsection shall be subject to the prior approval of Lender and its counsel, at Borrower's expense. Borrower shall promptly deliver to Lender copies of amendments, modifications and waivers which are entered into pursuant to this Subsection together with Borrower's certification that it has satisfied all of the conditions of this Subsection.

                        (d)     Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of Lender, enter into, renew, extend, amend, modify, waive any provisions of, terminate, reduce rents under, accept a surrender of space under, or shorten the term of, any Major Lease.

Section 3.9.     MAINTENANCE AND USE OF PROPERTY.     Borrower shall cause the Property to be maintained in a good and safe condition and repair. The Improvements and the Personal Property shall not be removed, demolished or materially altered (except for normal replacement of the Personal Property with replacement property of equal or greater value) without the consent of Lender. Borrower shall promptly repair, replace or rebuild any part of the Property which may be destroyed by any casualty, or become damaged, worn or dilapidated or which may be affected by any condemnation or taking proceeding and shall complete and pay

12

for any structure at any time in the process of construction or repair on the Land. Borrower shall not initiate, join in , acquiesce in , or consent to any change in any private restrictive covenant, zoning law or other public or private restriction, limiting, defining or changing the uses which may be made of the Property or any part thereof. If under applicable zoning provisions the use of all or any portion of the Property is or shall become a nonconforming use, Borrower will not cause or permit the nonconforming use to be discontinued or the nonconforming Improvement to be abandoned without the express written consent of Lender, and Borrower shall take such other steps as Lender may require to establish the legality of such non-conforming use.

Section 3.10.     WASTE.     Borrower shall not commit or suffer any waste of the Property or make any change in the use of the Property which will in any way materially increase the risk of fire or other hazard arising out of the operation of the Property, or take any action that might invalidate or give cause for cancellation of any Policy, or substantially increase the rates thereunder, or do or permit to be done thereon anything that may in any way impair the value of the Property or the security of this Security Instrument.

                        (c)     Notwithstanding any provisions set forth herein or in any document regarding Lender's approval of alterations of the Property, Borrower shall not alter the Property in any manner which would materially increase Borrower's responsibilities for compliance with Applicable Laws without the prior written approval of Lender. Lender's approval of the plans, specifications, or working drawings for alterations of the Property shall create no responsibility or liability on behalf of Lender for their completeness, design, sufficiency or their compliance with Applicable Laws. The foregoing shall apply to tenant improvements constructed by Borrower or by any of its tenants. Lender may condition any such approval upon receipt of a certificate of compliance with Applicable Laws from an independent architect, engineer, or other person acceptable to Lender.

                        (d)     Borrower shall give prompt notice to Lender of the receipt by Borrower of any notice related to a violation or threatened violation of any Applicable Laws and of the commencement or threatened commencement of any proceedings or investigations which relate to compliance with Applicable Laws.

The cost and expense of any cure hereunder (including reasonable attorneys' fees to the extent permitted by law), with interest at the Default Rate (defined in the Note), shall constitute a portion of the Debt and shall be due and payable to Lender upon demand. All costs and expenses incurred by Lender in remedying any Event of Default or failed payment or act or in appearing in, defending, or bringing any such action or proceeding shall bear interest at the Default Rate defined in the Note, for the period after notice from Lender that such cost or expense was incurred to the date of payment to Lender.

Section 9.5      RECOVERY OF SUMS REQUIRED TO BE PAID.     Lender shall have the right from time to time to take action to recover any sum or sums which constitute a part of the Debt as the same become due, without regard to whether or not the balance of the Debt shall be due, and without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to bring an action of foreclosure, or any other action, for a default or defaults by Borrower existing at the time such earlier action was commenced.

Section 9.6.      EXAMINATION OF BOOKS AND RECORDS.     Lender, its agents, accountants and attorneys shall have the right upon prior written notice to Borrower (unless an Event of Default exists, in which case no notice shall be required), to examine and audit, during reasonable business hours, the records, books, management and other papers of Borrower and its affiliates or of any Guarantor or Indemnitor which pertain to their financial condition or the income, expenses and operation of the Property, at the Property or at any office regularly maintained by Borrower, its affiliates or any Guarantor or Indemnitor where the books and records are located. Lender and its agents shall have the right upon notice to make copies and extracts from the foregoing records and other papers at no cost to Lender.

Section 9.7.      OTHER RIGHTS, ETC.

                        (a)     The failure of Lender to insist upon strict performance of any term hereof shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any term of this Security Instrument. Borrower shall not be relieved of Borrower's obligations hereunder by reason of (i) the failure of Lender to comply with any request of Borrower, any Guarantor or any Indemnitor to take any action to foreclose this Security Instrument or otherwise enforce any of the provisions hereof or of the Note or the Other Security Documents, (ii) the release, regardless of consideration, of the whole or any part of the Property, or of any person liable for the Debt or any portion thereof, or (iii) any agreement or stipulation by Lender extending the time of payment, changing the rate of interest, or otherwise modifying or supplementing the terms of the Note, this Security Instruments or the Other Security Documents.

                        (b)     It is agreed that the risk of loss or damage to the Property is on Borrower, and Lender shall have no liability whatsoever for decline in value of the Property, for failure to maintain the Policies, or for failure to determine whether insurance in force is adequate as to the amount of risks insured. Possession by Lender shall not be deemed an election of judicial relief, if any such possession is requested or obtained, with respect to any Property or collateral not in Lender's possession.

                        (c)     Lender may resort for the payment of the Debt to any other security held by or guaranties given to Lender in such order and manner as Lender, in its discretion, may elect. Lender may take action to recover the Debt, or any portion thereof, or to enforce any covenant

31

hereof without prejudice to the right of Lender thereafter to foreclose this Security Instrument. The rights of Lender under this Security Instrument shall be separate, distinct and cumulative and none shall be given effect to the exclusion of the others.
