In no event at any time before the Registration Statement becomes effective with respect to the Securities shall the Company publicly announce or file any other registration statement, other than registrations on Form S-8, without the prior written consent of a majority in interest of the Investors. The Company understands that the Investor disclaims being an underwriter, but the Investor being deemed an underwriter by the SEC shall not relieve the Company of any obligations it has hereunder; provided, however that if the Company receives notification from the SEC that the Investor is deemed an underwriter, then the period by which the Company is obligated to submit an acceleration request to the SEC shall be extended to the earlier of (i) the 90th day after such SEC notification, or (ii) 120 days after the initial filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC. 7.2 Transfer of Securities After Registration; Suspension. ----------------------------------------------------- (a) The Investor agrees that it will not effect any disposition of the Securities or its right to purchase the Securities that would constitute a sale within the meaning of the Securities Act except as contemplated in the Registration Statement referred to in Section 7.1 and as described below or as otherwise permitted by law, and that it will promptly notify the Company of any changes in the information set forth in the Registration Statement regarding the Investor or its plan of distribution. (b) Except in the event that paragraph (c) below applies, the Company shall (i) if deemed necessary by the Company, prepare and file from time to time with the SEC a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or a supplement or amendment to any document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document so that such Registration Statement will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Securities being sold thereunder, such Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; (ii) provide the Investor copies of any documents filed pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i); and (iii) inform each Investor that the Company has complied with its obligations in Section 7.2(b)(i) (or that, if the Company has filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement which has not yet been declared effective, the Company will notify the Investor to that effect, will use its best efforts to secure the effectiveness of such post-effective amendment as promptly as possible and will promptly notify the Investor pursuant to Section 7.2(b)(i) hereof when the amendment has become effective). (c) Subject to paragraph (d) below, in the event (i) of any request by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority during the period of effectiveness of the Registration Statement for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or related Prospectus or for additional information; (ii) of the issuance by the SEC or any other federal or state governmental authority of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose; (iii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; or (iv) of any event or circumstance which, upon the advice of its counsel, necessitates the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, so that, in the case of the Registration Statement, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and that in the case of the Prospectus, it will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or any omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; then the Company shall deliver a certificate in writing to the Investor (the "Suspension Notice") to the effect of the foregoing and, upon receipt of such Suspension Notice, the Investor will refrain from selling any Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement (a "Suspension") until the Investor's receipt of copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus prepared and filed by the Company, or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the current Prospectus may be used, and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in any such Prospectus. In the event of any Suspension, the Company will use its best efforts to cause the use of the Prospectus so suspended to be resumed as soon as reasonably practicable within 20 business days after the delivery of a Suspension Notice to the Investor. In addition to and without limiting any other remedies (including, without limitation, at law or at equity) available to the Investor, the Investor shall be entitled to specific performance in the event that the Company fails to comply with the provisions of this Section 7.2(c). (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section 7.2, the Investor shall not be prohibited from selling Securities under the Registration Statement as a result of Suspensions for more than 45 Trading Days in any twelve month period, unless, in the good faith judgment of the Company's Board of Directors, upon the written opinion of counsel, the sale of Securities under the Registration Statement in reliance on this paragraph 7.2(d) would be reasonably likely to cause a violation of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and result in liability to the Company. (e) Provided that a Suspension is not then in effect, the Investor may sell Securities under the Registration Statement, provided that it arranges for delivery of a current Prospectus to the transferee of such Securities. Upon receipt of a request therefor, the Company has agreed to provide an adequate number of current Prospectuses to the Investor and to supply copies to any other parties requiring such Prospectuses. (f) In the event of a sale of Securities by the Investor pursuant to the Registration Statement, the Investor must also deliver to the Company's transfer agent, with a copy to the Company, a Certificate of Subsequent Sale substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, so that the Securities may be properly transferred. 7.3 Indemnification. For the purpose of this Section 7.3: --------------- (i) the term "Selling Stockholder" shall include the Investor and any affiliate of such Investor; (ii) the term "Registration Statement" shall include the Prospectus in the form first filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act or filed as part of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness if no Rule 424(b) filing is required, exhibit, supplement or amendment included in or relating to the Registration Statement referred to in Section 7.1; and (iii) the term "untrue statement" shall include any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission to state in the Registration Statement a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Selling Stockholder from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Selling Stockholder may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise) insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon (i) any breach of the representations or warranties of the Company contained herein or failure to comply with the covenants and agreements of the Company contained herein, (ii) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement as amended at the time of effectiveness or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or (iii) any failure by the Company to fulfill any undertaking included in the Registration Statement as amended at the time of effectiveness, and the Company will reimburse such Selling Stockholder for any reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim, or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim, provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of, or is based upon, an untrue statement made in such Registration Statement or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Selling Stockholder specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement or the failure of such Selling Stockholder to comply with its covenants and agreements contained in Section 7.2 hereof respecting sale of the Securities or any statement or omission in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Selling Stockholder prior to the pertinent sale or sales by the Selling Stockholder. The Company shall reimburse each Selling Stockholder for the amounts provided for herein on demand as such expenses are incurred. (b) The Investor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company (and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, each officer of the Company who signs the Registration Statement and each director of the Company) from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company (or any such officer, director or controlling person) may become subject (under the Securities Act or otherwise), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) arise out of, or are based upon, (i) any failure to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 7.2 hereof respecting sale of the Securities, or (ii) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading if such untrue statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by or on behalf of the Investor specifically for use in preparation of the Registration Statement, and the Investor will reimburse the Company (or such officer, director or controlling person), as the case may be, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, defending or preparing to defend any such action, proceeding or claim; provided that the Investor's obligation to indemnify the Company shall be limited to the net amount received by the Investor from the sale of the Securities. (c) Promptly after receipt by any indemnified person of a notice of a claim or the beginning of any action in respect of which indemnity is to be sought against an indemnifying person pursuant to this Section 7.3, such indemnified person shall notify the indemnifying person in writing of such claim or of the commencement of such action, but the omission to so notify the indemnifying person will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified person under this Section 7.3 (except to the extent that such omission materially and adversely affects the indemnifying person's ability to defend such action) or from any liability otherwise than under this Section 7.3. Subject to the provisions hereinafter stated, in case any such action shall be brought against an indemnified person, the indemnifying person shall be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it shall elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified person promptly after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified person, shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified person. After notice from the indemnifying person to such indemnified person of its election to assume the defense thereof, such indemnifying person shall not be liable to such indemnified person for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified person in connection with the defense thereof, provided, however, that if there exists or shall exist a conflict of interest that would make it inappropriate, in the opinion of counsel to the indemnified person, for the same counsel to represent both the indemnified person and such indemnifying person or any affiliate or associate thereof, the indemnified person shall be entitled to retain its own counsel at the expense of such indemnifying person; provided, however, that no indemnifying person shall be responsible for the fees and expenses of more than one separate counsel (together with appropriate local counsel) for all indemnified parties. In no event shall any indemnifying person be liable in respect of any amounts paid in settlement of any action unless the indemnifying person shall have approved the terms of such settlement; provided that such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No indemnifying person shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding. (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7.3 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified person under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying person shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Investor, as well as any other Selling Shareholders under such registration statement on the other in connection with the statements or omissions or other matters which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, in the case of an untrue statement, whether the untrue statement relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or an Investor or other Selling Shareholder on the other and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement. The Company and the Investor agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Investor and other Selling Shareholders were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified person as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified person in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Investor shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net amount received by the Investor from the sale of the Securities to which such loss relates exceeds the amount of any damages which such Investor has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue statement. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Investor's obligations in this subsection to contribute shall be in proportion to its Investor sale of Securities to which such loss relates and shall not be joint with any other Selling Shareholders. (e) The parties to this Agreement hereby acknowledge that they are sophisticated business persons who were represented by counsel, or had the opportunity to be represented by counsel, during the negotiations regarding the provisions hereof including, without limitation, the provisions of this Section 7.3, and are fully informed regarding said provisions. They further acknowledge that the provisions of this Section 7.3 fairly allocate the risks in light of the ability of the parties to investigate the Company and its business in order to assure that adequate disclosure is made in the Registration Statement as required by the Act and the Exchange Act. The parties are advised that federal or state public policy as interpreted by the courts in certain jurisdictions may be contrary to certain of the provisions of this Section 7.3, and the parties hereto hereby expressly waive and relinquish any right or ability to assert such public policy as a defense to a claim under this Section 7.3 and further agree not to attempt to assert any such defense. 7.4 Termination of Conditions and Obligations. The conditions precedent imposed by Section 5 or this Section 7 upon the transferability of the Securities shall cease and terminate as to any particular number of the Securities when such Securities shall have been effectively registered under the Securities Act and sold or otherwise disposed of in accordance with the intended method of disposition set forth in the Registration Statement covering such Securities or at such time as an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company shall have been rendered to the effect that such conditions are not necessary in order to comply with the Securities Act. 7.5 Information Available. So long as the Registration Statement is effective covering the resale of Securities owned by the Investor, the Company will furnish to the Investor: (a) as soon as practicable after it is available, one copy of its Annual Report to Stockholders (which Annual Report shall contain financial statements audited in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles by a national firm of certified public accountants); (b) upon the request of the Investor, all exhibits excluded by the parenthetical to subparagraph (a) of this Section 7.5 as filed with the SEC and all other information that is made available to shareholders; and (c) upon the reasonable request of the Investor, an adequate number of copies of the Prospectuses to supply to any other party requiring such Prospectuses; and upon the reasonable request of the Investor, the President or the Chief Financial Officer of the Company (or an appropriate designee thereof) will meet with the Investor or a representative thereof at the Company's headquarters to discuss all information relevant for disclosure in the Registration Statement covering the Securities and will otherwise cooperate with any Investor conducting an investigation for the purpose of reducing or eliminating such Investor's exposure to liability under the Securities Act, including the reasonable production of information at the Company's headquarters; provided, that the Company shall not be required to disclose any confidential information to or meet at its headquarters with any Investor until and unless the Investor shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company with the Company with respect thereto. 7.6 Delayed Effectiveness. The Company and Investor agree that Investor will suffer damages if the Company fails to fulfill its obligations pursuant to Section 7.1 and 7.2 hereof and that it would not be possible to ascertain the extent of such damages with precision. Accordingly, the Company hereby agrees to pay liquidated damages ("Liquidated Damages") to Investor under the following circumstances: (a) if the Registration Statement is not filed by the Company on or prior to 20 business days after the Closing Date in accordance with Section 7.1(a) (such an event, a "Filing Default"); (b) if the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to 135 days after the Closing Date (such an event, an "Effectiveness Default"); or (c) if the Registration Statement (after its effectiveness date) ceases to be effective and available to Investor for one or more periods that exceed in the aggregate 45 days in any 12-month period (such an event, a "Suspension Default" and together with a Filing Default and an Effectiveness Default, a "Registration Default"). In the event of a Registration Default, the Company shall as Liquidated Damages pay to Investor, for each 30-day period of a Registration Default, an amount in cash equal to 1% of the aggregate purchase price paid by Investor pursuant to this Agreement; provided that in no event shall the aggregate amount of cash to be paid as Liquidated Damages pursuant to this Section 7.6 exceed 12% of the aggregate purchase price paid by Investor. The Company shall pay the Liquidated Damages as follows: (i) in connection with a Filing Default, on the 20th day after the Closing Date, and each 30th day thereafter until the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC; (ii) in connection with an Effectiveness Default, on the 140th day after the Closing Date, and each 30th day thereafter until the Registration Statement is declared effective by the SEC; or (iii) in connection with a Suspension Default, on the 50th day (in the aggregate) of any Suspensions in any 12-month period, and each 30th day thereafter until the Suspension is terminated in accordance with Section 7.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all periods shall be tolled during delays directly caused by the action or inaction of any Investor, and the Company shall have no liability to any Investor in respect of any such delay. The Liquidated Damages payable herein shall apply on a pro rata basis for any portion of a 30-day period of a Registration Default. 8. Notices. All notices, requests, consents and other communications hereunder shall be in writing, shall be mailed (A) if within the United States by first-class registered or certified airmail, or nationally recognized overnight express courier, postage prepaid, or by facsimile, or (B) if delivered from outside the United States, by International Federal Express or facsimile, and shall be deemed given (i) if delivered by first-class registered or certified mail, three business days after so mailed, (ii) if delivered by nationally recognized overnight carrier, one business day after so mailed, (iii) if delivered by International Federal Express, two business days after so mailed, (iv) if delivered by facsimile, upon electronic confirmation of receipt and shall be delivered as addressed as follows: (a) if to the Company, to: ThermoGenesis Corp. 2711 Citrus Road Rancho Cordova, CA 95742 Attn: Renee M.

The headings of the various sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to be part of this Agreement. 11. Severability. In case any provision contained in this Agreement should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. 12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of New York. 13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one instrument, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each party hereto and delivered to the other parties. 14. Rule 144. The Company covenants that it will timely file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder (or, if the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any Investor holding Securities purchased hereunder made after the first anniversary of the Closing Date, make publicly available such information as necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act), and it will take such further action as any such Investor may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Investor to sell Securities purchased hereunder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by (a) Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rule may be amended from time to time, or (b) any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of the Investor, the Company will deliver to such holder a written statement as to whether it has complied with such information and requirements. 15. Confidential Information. (a) The Investor represents to the Company that, at all times during the Company's offering of the Securities, the Investor has maintained in confidence all non-public information regarding the Company and relating specifically to the financing transaction that is the subject of this agreement, received by the Investor from the Company or its agents, and covenants that it will continue to maintain in confidence such information until such information (a) becomes generally publicly available other than through a violation of this provision by the Investor or its agents or (b) is required to be disclosed in legal proceedings (such as by deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigation demand, filing with any governmental authority or similar process), provided, however, that before making any use or disclosure in reliance on this subparagraph (b) the Investor shall give the Company at least fifteen (15) days prior written notice (or such shorter period as required by law) specifying the circumstances giving rise thereto and will furnish only that portion of the non-public information which is legally required and will exercise its best efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded any non-public information so furnished. (b) Public Statements. The Company shall, on or before 8:30 a.m., New York time, on the first Business Day following execution of the Agreements, issue a press release disclosing all material terms of the Offering.

Thereafter, the Company shall timely file any filings and notices required by the SEC or applicable law with respect to the Offering and provide copies thereof to the Investors promptly after filing. The Company shall not publicly disclose the name of any Investor, or include the name of any Investor in any press release without the prior written consent of such Investor. THERMOGENESIS CORP. INVESTOR QUESTIONNAIRE (ALL INFORMATION WILL BE TREATED CONFIDENTIALLY) To: ThermoGenesis Corp. 2711 Citrus Road Rancho Cordova, CA 95742 This Investor Questionnaire ("Questionnaire") must be completed by each potential investor in connection with the offer and sale of the shares of the common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of ThermoGenesis Corp.

The information supplied by you will be used in determining whether you meet such criteria, and reliance upon the private offering exemption from registration is based in part on the information herein supplied. This Questionnaire does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any security. Your answers will be kept strictly confidential.

Any purchase of the Securities would be solely for the account of the undersigned and not for the account of any other person or with a view to any resale, fractionalization, division, or distribution thereof. -------- 1 As used in this Questionnaire, the term "net worth" means the excess of total assets over total liabilities. In computing net worth for the purpose of subsection (4), the principal residence of the investor must be valued at cost, including cost of improvements, or at recently appraised value by an institutional lender making a secured loan, net of encumbrances. In determining income, the investor should add to the investor's adjusted gross income any amounts attributable to tax exempt income received, losses claimed as a limited partner in any limited partnership, deductions claimed for depiction, contributions to an IRA or KEOGH retirement plan, alimony payments, and any amount by which income from long-term capital gains has been reduced in arriving at adjusted gross income. 2. The information contained herein is complete and accurate and may be relied upon by the Corporation, and the undersigned will notify the Corporation immediately of any material change in any of such information occurring prior to the closing, if any, with respect to the purchase of Securities by the undersigned or any co-purchaser. 3. There are no suits, pending litigation, or claims against the undersigned that could materially affect the net worth of the undersigned as reported in this Questionnaire. 4. The undersigned acknowledges that there may occasionally be times when the Corporation determines that it must suspend the use of the Prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement (as such terms are defined in the Securities Purchase Agreement to which this Questionnaire is attached), as set forth in Section 7.2(c) of the Securities Purchase Agreement. The undersigned is aware that, in such event, the Securities will not be subject to ready liquidation, and that any Securities purchased by the undersigned would have to be held during such suspension. The overall commitment of the undersigned to investments which are not readily marketable is not excessive in view of the undersigned's net worth and financial circumstances, and any purchase of the Securities will not cause such commitment to become excessive. The undersigned is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities. 5. The undersigned has carefully considered the potential risks relating to the Corporation and a purchase of the Securities, and fully understands that the Securities are speculative investments which involve a high degree of risk of loss of the undersigned's entire investment. Among others, the undersigned has carefully considered each of the risks identified in the Exchange Act Documents. 6. The undersigned has received and carefully reviewed the Confidential Private Placement Memorandum (the "Offering Memorandum"), including the Exchange Act Documents, understanding that each such document supersedes all prior versions thereof and any inconsistent portions of previously distributed materials relating to the Company, including, without limitation, executive and other summaries and marketing materials regarding the Company and the Securities that are not part of the Offering Memorandum, and has consulted its own advisors, who are not affiliated with the Company or the Placement Agent, with respect to the undersigned's proposed investment in the Company. The undersigned has not relied on any other information provided to it by the Company or the Placement Agent or any of their respective affiliates (or any of its or their respective agents or representatives). Based on such review, the undersigned has determined that the Securities being purchased herein are a suitable investment for the undersigned. The undersigned recognizes that an investment in the Company involves certain risks and it has taken full cognizance of and understands all of the risk factors relating to the purchase of Securities. The undersigned has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of an investment in the Company and making an informed investment decision with respect thereto. The undersigned is able to bear the substantial economic risks related to an investment in the Company for an indefinite period of time, has no need for liquidity in such investment, and, at the present time, can afford a complete loss of such investment. With respect to tax and other economic considerations involved in this subscription, the undersigned is not relying on the Company or Placement Agent or their respective affiliates (or any of its or their agents or representatives). 7. The undersigned has had the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers concerning the Company and the terms and conditions of the offering of Securities, as well as the opportunity to obtain any additional information necessary to verify the accuracy of information furnished in connection with such offering which the Company or the Placement Agent possesses or can acquire without unreasonable effort or expense. 8.
