Item 8.01  
Other Events.

On May 23, 2011 the registrant ("Mymetics") received a letter from Abbott Laboratories agreeing to amend the existing License and Cooperation Agreements for Intranasal Delivery of APRECS based Vaccines and Virosomes based Vaccines between Mymetics B.V. and Abbott Biologicals B.V. ("Abbott") (formerly Solvay Pharamceuticals) to allow Mymetics to produce, commercialize and exploit its intra-nasal influenza vaccine technology and to use all data developed by Abbott under the license it had with Mymetics.  Abbott had completed a successful phase I clinical study in Europe using Mymetics' intra-nasal influenza vaccine technology. Mymetics was negotiating a formal termination agreement with Abbott but recently determined upon consultation with Dutch counsel to rely on the May 23, 2011 letter between itself and Abbott to terminate its license agreement with Abbott with respect to the intra-nasal influenza vaccine.  Mymetics has issued a press release regarding the termination of its license agreement with Abbott, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
