Item
      1.01. Entry into Material Definitive Agreements.
On
      June
      6, 2006 (the "
Closing
      Date
"),
CTI
      Industries Corporation (the "
Company
")
entered
      into a Standby Equity Distribution Agreement (the "
SEDA
")
      with
      Cornell Capital Partners, LP ("
Cornell
")
      pursuant to which the Company may, at its discretion, periodically sell to
      Cornell shares of its common stock, no par value per share (the "
Common
      Stock
")
      for a
      total purchase price of up to Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000).  For each
      share of Common Stock purchased under the SEDA, Cornell will pay to the Company
      one hundred percent (100%) of the lowest volume weighted average price (as
      quoted by Bloomberg, LP) of the Common Stock on the principal market (whichever
      is at such time the principal trading exchange or market for the Common Stock)
      during the five (5) consecutive trading days after the Advance Notice Date
      (as
      such term is defined in the SEDA). However, the Company and Cornell have agreed
      that the Company will not sell to Cornell in excess of 400,000 shares unless
      and
      until the Company shall have obtained shareholder approval for such
      sales.
Cornell
      will retain five percent (5%) of each advance under the SEDA. The Company has
      paid to Yorkville Advisors, LLC ("
Yorkville
")
      a
      structuring fee equal to Fifteen Thousand Dollars on the Closing Date and shall
      pay Five Hundred Dollars ($500) to Yorkville on each Advance Date directly
      out
      of the gross proceeds of each Advance (as such terms are defined in the SEDA).
      Cornell's obligation to purchase shares of Common Stock under the SEDA is
      subject to certain conditions, including, without limitation: (a) the Company
      obtaining an effective registration statement for shares of its Common Stock
      sold under the SEDA pursuant to that certain Registration Rights Agreement
      dated
      as of the Closing Date and (b) the amount for each Advance as designated by
      the
      Company in the applicable Advance Notice shall not be more than One Hundred
      Thousand Dollars ($100,000).
The
      Company also entered into that certain Placement Agent Agreement (the
"
PAA
"),
      dated
      as of the Closing Date, by and among the Company, Cornell and Newbridge
      Securities Corporation ("
Newbridge
")
      pursuant to which the Company engaged Newbridge to act as it exclusive placement
      agent in connection with the SEDA. Upon the execution of the PAA, the Company
      issued to Newbridge Three Thousand Five Hundred (3,500) shares (the
"
Shares
")
      of the
      Company's Common Stock. Newbridge is entitled to "piggy-back" registration
      rights with respect to the Shares.
