Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

TechniScan Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) has entered into amendments (the “Note Amendments”), effective as of April 15, 2011, to extend the maturity date of all but one of its senior secured convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”) from April 15, 2011 to April 22, 2011. Louis Schiliro did not agree to the Note Amendment, and as of April 15, 2011, the Company is in default under the terms of his Note with an unpaid principal balance of $230,000 and accrued and unpaid interest on the date of default of $24,769. Under the terms of the Note, interest on the unpaid principal balance accrues at the rate of 24% per annum from and including the maturity date or the date of the default, but excusing the date of payment. In addition, Mr. Schiliro has the right to convert the unpaid principal and accrued and unpaid interest into shares of our common stock (“Shares”) at the lower of the then applicable conversion price ($2.68 on the date of default) and a price per Share that is 20% lower than the arithmetic mean of the three lowest prices at which any Shares are traded during ten consecutive trading days ending on the conversion date. Mr. Schiliro also has the right to declare the entire outstanding principal balance of the Note and accrued and unpaid interest immediately due and payable, however, under the terms of the Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement and related security agreements (collectively, the Loan Documents”), only Biotex Pharma Investments, LLC, as the collateral agent under the Loan Documents, has the right to exercise remedies with respect to any of our assets, all of which have been pledged as collateral for repayment of the Notes.

The Notes, as amended, were issued pursuant to a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement and other investment documents in connection with our private debt offering described in our Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on April 5, 2010, May 14, 2010, May 25, 2010, October 1, 2010, October 12, 2010, October 19, 2010, November 3, 2010, November 18, 2010 and February 7, 2011. All other terms under the Notes remain in full force and effect.
