                This statement is filed with respect to the shares of the common stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), of Neoprobe Corporation (the "Issuer"), beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons (as defined below) as of April 18, 2011 and amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on March 18, 2011 (collectively, the "Schedule 13D").  Except as set forth herein, the Schedule 13D is unmodified.

The names of the persons filing this statement on Schedule 13D are: Platinum-Montaur Life Sciences, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Montaur”), and Platinum Partners Value Arbitrage Fund L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (the “Master Fund,” and together with Montaur, the "Reporting Persons").  The Master Fund is the parent and managing member of Montaur.

ITEM 4.Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 of Schedule 13D is supplemented by the following:

On March 17, 2011, the Reporting Persons submitted the nominations of Peter F. Drake, Ph.D., Mark I. Greene M.D., Ph.D., F.R.C.P., and Jess Emery Jones, M.D. (collectively, the “Stockholder Nominees”), for election at the Issuer’s 2011 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2011 Annual Meeting”) to the Issuer’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) as directors whose terms continue until the 2014 annual meeting of stockholders.  

On April 18, 2011, the Reporting Persons entered into a Settlement Agreement with the Issuer (the “Settlement Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things:

(a) The Issuer has agreed to nominate Drs. Drake and Jones for election as directors of the Issuer for terms expiring at the Issuer’s 2014 Annual Meeting (the "2014 Class"),

(b) The Issuer immediately agreed to appoint Drs. Drake and Jones to fill two current vacancies on the Board with terms expiring at the 2012 annual meeting of stockholders (the "2012 Class"),

(c) If Drs. Drake and Jones are elected to the Board and seated as directors in the 2014 Class, they would then be deemed to have resigned their positions as directors in the 2012 Class and will serve as directors in the 2014 Class; in the event that Dr. Drake and Dr. Jones are not elected to the 2014 Class at the 2011 Annual Meeting, they would automatically and without further action immediately be deemed to have resigned their positions as directors of the 2012 Class,

(d) Prior to the time that all 2014 Class directors are seated and the Board meets with them in attendance, the Board will not, and will not permit the Issuer to, without the prior consent of the Reporting Persons, delay or postpone the 2011 Annual Meeting to a date later than August 15, 2011, increase or decrease the number of directors on the Board, appoint anyone other than Drs. Drake and Jones to serve on the Board, or amend the Bylaws of the Issuer,

(e) The Reporting Persons agreed to withdraw their letter proposing the Stockholder Nominees to the Board for the 2011 Annual Meeting, not to engage in any independent proxy solicitation activities with respect to the 2011 Annual Meeting, and not to commence, encourage or support any derivative action in the name of the Company or any class action against the Company with respect to any facts or events occurring or arising prior to the date of the Settlement Agreement, and
 
 

 
 
 

 
(f) The Reporting Persons agreed to vote at the 2011 Annual Meeting any shares of Common Stock that they own in favor of the directors nominated by the Board for election at the 2011 Annual Meeting, which shall be Dr. Drake, Dr. Jones, and Dr. Mark Pykett, V.M.D., Ph.D., President and CEO of the Issuer.

The above description of the Settlement Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Settlement Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit C and which is incorporated herein by reference.  


  ITEM 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

The Master Fund has entered into a notional principal amount derivative agreement (the “Derivative Agreement”) with respect to 1,000,000 shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock, representing an economic interest in 1.1% of the shares of the Issuer’s Common Stock.  The Derivative Agreement provides the Master Fund with economic results that are comparable to the economic results of ownership but does not provide it with the power to vote or direct the voting or dispose of or direct the disposition of the shares that are the subject of the Derivative Agreement.  The counterparty to the Derivative Agreement is an unaffiliated third party financial institution.

Except as described above in this Schedule 13D and in this Item 6, none of the Reporting Persons has any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships with respect to the securities of the Issuer.


  ITEM 7.
Material to be Filed as Exhibits.

Exhibit A – Joint Filing Agreement (previously filed)

Exhibit B – List of the transactions in the Issuer’s Common Stock that were effected by the Reporting Persons during the past sixty days (previously filed)

Exhibit C – Settlement Agreement
