Dear Mr. Liddell:

This agreement dated June 3, 2011 (the “Agreement”), hereby confirms the
engagement of Burnham Hill Partners LLC (“BHP”) by Vycor Medical, Inc. (the “Company”) to act as its exclusive placement agent
in connection with the issuance and sale of shares of the Company’s Series C Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series C Preferred”) and
warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock up to a total of $1.5 million through a transaction or transactions exempt from registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and in compliance with the applicable securities laws and regulations (the “Financing”). 

In connection with the Financing, the Company shall compensate BHP as follows: i) a cash placement fee equal to seven
percent (7.0%) of the gross proceeds received by the Company from investors introduced by BHP as listed on Schedule A attached hereto (which may be
updated from time to time by the parties) in the Financing (the “Placement Fee”) and ii) the Company shall issue to BHP and/or its registered
designees and assignees 3-year warrants in an amount equal to seven (7.0%) percent of the number of as converted common shares of Series C Preferred issued to
investors introduced by BHP as listed on Schedule A attached hereto (which may be updated from time to time by the parties) in the Financing (the “
Placement Warrants”).  The Placement Warrants shall be exercisable at two and a quarter cents ($0.0225) per share.  The shares underlying
the Placement Warrants shall be exercisable pursuant to a cashless exercise provision and be non-redeemable. The Placement Fee shall be due and payable by the
Company upon the consummation of each closing of the Financing. 

In addition to the above, the Company agrees to reimburse BHP for
reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement promptly as invoiced, provided, however, such amount shall not exceed $5,000
without the prior approval of the Company.  The Company will also pay the documented legal costs of BHP and/or the investors incurred in connection with
the Financing, not to exceed $20,000.  All fees and expenses hereunder are payable in cash and shall be a condition to the closing of the Financing.  

In connection with this Agreement, the Company will furnish BHP with all information concerning
the Company which BHP reasonably deems appropriate and will provide BHP with access to its officers, directors, employees, accountants, counsel and other
representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”), it being understood that BHP will rely solely upon such information supplied by the
Company and its Representatives without assuming any responsibility for the independent investigation or verification thereof. All non-public information
concerning the Company that is given to BHP will be used solely in the course of the performance of our services hereunder and will be treated confidentially by
us for so long as it remains non-public.  Except as otherwise required by law, BHP will not disclose any information to any third party without the consent
of the Company.

BHP’s engagement in connection with this Agreement shall commence on the date first written above and shall expire on
the earlier of i) June 15, 2011 or ii) the consummation of the Financing (the “Authorization Period”).  Upon any expiration, BHP will
continue to be entitled to its full fees provided for herein in the event that at any time prior to the expiration of twelve (12) months after such expiration
or termination (the “Tail Period”), the Company completes any Financing with any entity introduced to the Company by BHP or with which BHP,
with the Company’s knowledge, had material discussions related to a Financing during the Authorization Period.  Notwithstanding, the Company shall
have the right to directly raise additional funds, concurrently with the Financing, from investors other than investors identified by BHP, on the same terms and
conditions as the Financing, exempt from the requirement to pay compensation to ZBHP as detailed above.

Notice given pursuant to any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be given in writing and shall be sent by overnight
courier or personally delivered i) if to the Company, to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer at the address listed above; and ii) if to BHP, to its
offices at 590 Madison Avenue, 5th floor, New York, NY 10022, Attention: Senior Managing Director.

No advice or opinion rendered by BHP, whether formal or informal, may be disclosed, in whole or in part, or summarized,
excerpted from or otherwise referred to without our prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld.  In addition, BHP may not be otherwise
referred to without its prior written consent.  Since BHP will be acting on behalf of the Company in connection with its engagement hereunder, the Company
has entered into a separate letter Agreement, dated the date hereof, providing for the indemnification by the Company of BHP and certain related persons and
entities (the “Indemnification Agreement”).

Our engagement is for the limited purposes set forth under this Agreement, and the rights and obligations of each of BHP and
the Company related to this Agreement are herein defined.  Each of BHP and the Company agrees that the other party has no fiduciary duty to it or its
stockholders, officers and directors as a result of the engagement described in this Agreement.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflicts of law principles thereof.  This Agreement may not be amended or modified
except in writing signed by each of the parties hereto.

The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this letter Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provisions of this Agreement or the Indemnification Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

We are delighted to accept this engagement and look forward to working with you on this assignment.  Please confirm
that the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding by signing and returning to us the enclosed duplicate of this Agreement.

Very truly yours,

BURNHAM HILL PARTNERS LLC

[List of BHP Investors]

 Date: June 3, 2011

 TO:  Burnham Hill
Partners LLC

590 Madison Avenue, 5th Floor

New York, NY 10022

In connection with your engagement pursuant to our letter Agreement of
even date herewith (the “Engagement”), we agree to indemnify and hold harmless Burnham Hill Partners LLC (“BHP”) and its
affiliates, the respective directors, officers, partners, agents and employees of BHP and its affiliates, and each other person, if any, controlling BHP or any
of its affiliates or successor in interest (collectively, “Indemnified Persons”), from and against, and we agree that no Indemnified Person
shall have any liability to us or our owners, parents, affiliates, security holders or creditors for, any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (including
actions or proceedings in respect thereof) (collectively “Losses”) (A) related to or arising out of (i) our actions or failures to act
(including statements or omissions made, or information provided, by us or our agents) or (ii) actions or failures to act by an Indemnified Person with our
consent or in reliance on our actions or failures to act, or (B) otherwise related to or arising out of the Engagement or your performance thereof, except that
this clause (B) shall not apply to any Losses that are finally judicially determined to have resulted primarily from your bad faith or gross negligence or
breach of the letter Agreement. If such indemnification is for any reason not available or insufficient to hold you harmless, we agree to contribute to the
Losses involved in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received (or anticipated to be received) by us and by you with respect to
the Engagement or, if such allocation is judicially determined unavailable, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect other equitable considerations such
as the relative fault of us on the one hand and of you on the other hand; provided, however, that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Indemnified
Persons shall not be responsible for amounts which in the aggregate are in excess of the amount of all fees actually received by you from us in connection with
the Engagement. Relative benefits to us, on the one hand, and you, on the other hand, with respect to the Engagement shall be deemed to be in the same
proportion as (i) the total value paid or proposed to be paid or received or proposed to be received by us or our security holders, as the case may be, pursuant
to the transaction(s), whether or not consummated, contemplated by the Engagement bears to (ii) all fees paid or proposed to be paid to you by us in connection
with the Engagement.

We will reimburse each Indemnified Person for all expenses (including
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) as they are incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating, preparing for or defending any
action, claim, investigation, inquiry, arbitration or other proceeding (“Action”) referred to above (or enforcing this Agreement or any related
engagement Agreement), whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation in which any Indemnified Person is a party, and whether or not such
Action is initiated or brought by you. We further agree that we will not settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or
threatened Action in respect of which indemnification may be sought hereunder (whether or not an Indemnified Person is a party therein) unless we have given you
reasonable prior written notice thereof and used all reasonable efforts, after consultation with you, to obtain an unconditional release of each Indemnified
Person from all liability arising therefrom.  In the event we are considering entering into one or a series of transactions involving a merger or other
business combination or a dissolution or liquidation of all or a significant portion of our assets, we shall promptly notify you in writing. If requested by
BHP, we shall then establish alternative means of providing for our obligations set forth herein on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to BHP.

If multiple claims are brought against you in any Action with respect to
at least one of which indemnification is permitted under applicable law and provided for under this Agreement, we agree that any judgment, arbitration award or
other monetary award shall be conclusively deemed to be based on claims as to which indemnification is permitted and provided for. In the event that you are
called or subpoenaed to give testimony in a court of law, we agree to pay your expenses related thereto and for every day or part thereof that we are required
to be there or in preparation thereof. Our obligations hereunder shall be in addition to any rights that any Indemnified Person may have at common law or
otherwise. Solely for the purpose of enforcing this Agreement, we hereby consent to personal jurisdiction and to service and venue in any court in which any
claim which is subject to this Agreement is brought by or against any Indemnified Person. We acknowledge that in connection with the Engagement you are acting
as an independent contractor with duties owing solely to us. YOU HEREBY AGREE, AND WE HEREBY AGREE ON OUR OWN BEHALF AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE
LAW, ON BEHALF OF OUR SECURITY HOLDERS, TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM, COUNTER-CLAIM OR ACTION ARISING OUT OF THE ENGAGEMENT,
YOUR PERFORMANCE THEREOF OR THIS AGREEMENT.

The provisions of this Agreement shall apply to the Engagement (including
related activities prior to the date hereof) and any modification thereof and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of the completion or termination
of the Engagement. This Agreement and any other Agreements relating to the Engagement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
state of New York, without regard to conflicts of law principles thereof.

 Very truly yours,
