Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On March 22, 2007, Boston Life Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) amended and restated its outstanding second amended and restated unsecured promissory note in favor of Robert L. Gipson (the “Third Amended Note”). Also, on March 22, 2007, the Company amended and restated its amended and restated outstanding unsecured promissory note in favor of Thomas L. Gipson (the “Second Amended Note”, together with the Third Amended Note, the “Amended Notes”). The terms of the Amended Notes are as follows:
     The Amended Notes eliminated (i) all outstanding and accrued interest due and payable thereunder and (ii) the Company’s right to prepay any portion of Amended Notes.
     On or after June 15, 2007, each of Messrs. Gipson and Gipson (collectively, the “Lenders”) shall effect the conversion his outstanding principal and accrued interest under the Amended Notes into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price of $2.50 per share. However, each Lender is prohibited from effecting a conversion if at the time of such conversion (i) the common stock issuable to such Lender, when taken together with all shares of common stock then held or otherwise beneficially owned by such Lender exceeds 19.9% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to such conversion, or (ii) the common stock issuable to such Lender, exceeds 19.9% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to such conversion, in each case unless and until the stockholders of the Company approve the conversion of all of the shares of common stock issuable thereunder.
     All other terms of the Amended Notes remained unchanged.
     The foregoing description of the Third Amended Note and Second Amended Note are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Third Amended Note and Second Amended Note, complete copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 and are incorporated herein by reference.
     According to a Schedule 13G/A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 12, 2007, Robert L. Gipson beneficially owned approximately 18.7% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on December 31, 2006. Robert L. Gipson, who serves as a Senior Director of Ingalls & Snyder LLC and a General Partner of Ingalls and Snyder Value Partners, L.P., served as a director of the Company from June 15, 2004 until October 28, 2004.
     According to a Schedule 13G/A filed with the SEC on February 12, 2007, Thomas L. Gipson beneficially owned approximately 19.2% of the outstanding common stock of the Company on December 31, 2006.
