Item 8.01 Other Events

Stock Repurchase. On December 1, 2011, the Board of Directors of Cryo-Cell International, Inc. (the "Company") authorized management at its discretion to repurchase up to one million (1,000,000) shares of the Company's outstanding common stock. The repurchases must be effectuated through open market purchases, privately negotiated block trades, unsolicited negotiated transactions, and/or pursuant to any trading plan that may be adopted in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Commission or in such other manner as will comply with the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

On December 7, 2011, the Company engaged in a repurchase of 383,617 shares of the Company's common stock at $1.80 per share in a privately negotiated transaction. The repurchased shares will be held as treasury stock.

Asset Purchase Agreement. On December 6, 2011 (the "Effective Date"), the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Bio-Stor International, Inc. ("Bio-Stor"). Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, on the Effective Date, the Company made a one-time, lump-sum payment in the amount of $2.3 million to Bio-Stor, and Bio-Stor sold, assigned, conveyed, transferred, and delivered to the Company all of its rights, interest and title in a Revenue Sharing Agreement ("RSA") which has been operating between Bio-Stor and the Company since 1999.

The Company has previously disclosed the terms of the RSA with Bio-Stor as well as other RSAs in its audited financial statements.

Generally, the RSAs provide that in exchange for a non-refundable, up-front payment, the Company would share in perpetuity a percentage of its future revenue derived from the annual storage fees with respect to specimens from a specified State or geographic region in the U.S. The RSA had no definitive term or termination provisions.

Pursuant to the terms of the Asset Purchase Agreement, Bio-Stor no longer has the rights to share in a portion of the Company's storage revenues derived from specimens which originated in the state of New York, including all rights to any storage revenues generated and unpaid prior to the Effective Date.
