We are an “emerging growth company” under the federal securities laws and will be subject to reduced public company reporting requirements.  Investing in our common stock involves risk. See “Risk Factors” beginning on page 6 of the prospectus to read about factors you should consider before buying shares of our common stock.

Item 1.01.     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As reported on its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 6, 2013, MRI Interventions, Inc. (the “Company”) issued an unregistered, amended and restated subordinated secured note (the “Old Note”) in the principal amount of $4,289,444 to Brainlab AG (“Brainlab”). The Old Note was to mature on April 5, 2016, and principal and accrued interest of approximately $740,000 under the Old Note was payable in a single installment upon maturity.

 

Securities Purchase Agreement

 

On March 22, 2016, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Brainlab to effect a restructuring of the Old Note. Under the Purchase Agreement, the parties agreed: (i) that the Company would pay to Brainlab all accrued and unpaid interest on the Old Note, in the amount of $739,323.46 (the “Interest Payment”); (ii) to amend and restate the Old Note on the terms described below; (iii) to enter into a patent and technology license agreement with Brainlab, in consideration for the cancellation of $1,000,000.00 of the principal amount of the Old Note, for the development of software relating to the Company’s SmartFrame® device; (iv) that the Company would issue to Brainlab, in consideration for the cancellation of $1,289,444.44 of the principal amount of the Old Note, 3,972,410 units, consisting of: (a) one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”); (b) warrants to purchase 0.40 shares of Common Stock (the “Series A Warrants”); and (c) warrants to purchase 0.30 shares of Common Stock (the “Series B Warrants”) (the “Units” and the issuance of the Units, the “Unit Transaction”); and (v) to enter into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company will agree to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares of common stock issued to Brainlab under the Purchase Agreement, as well as the shares of common stock that are issuable upon exercise of the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants.

 

The Purchase Agreement contains covenants, representations and warranties by the Company and Brainlab (including indemnification from the Company in the event of breaches of its representations and warranties), which the Company believes are customary for transactions of this type. The closing is subject to certain customary closing conditions, and the Company anticipates that the closing will occur on or before April 4, 2016 (the “Closing Date”).

 

Registration Rights Agreement

 

Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is required to prepare and file a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, covering the resale of the shares of common stock to be issued to Brainlab under the Purchase Agreement, as well as the shares of common stock underlying the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants. The Company will be required to file such Registration Statement within 60 calendar days following the closing date of the Unit Transaction (the “Filing Deadline”). The Company will be required to use its best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, if: (i) the Registration Statement is not filed with the SEC on or prior to the Filing Deadline; (ii) the Registration Statement is not declared effective by the SEC on or prior to the 75th day after the Closing Date (or the 120th day after the Closing Date if the SEC determines to review the Registration Statement); or (iii) the Company fails to continuously maintain the effectiveness of the Registration Statement (with certain permitted exceptions), the Company will incur certain liquidated damages to Brainlab. The Registration Rights Agreement also contains mutual indemnifications by the Company and Brainlab, which the Company believes are customary for transactions of this type.

Warrants

 

The Series A Warrants will be exercisable, in full or in part, at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of their issuance, at an exercise price of $0.4058 per share. The Series A Warrants will provide for certain adjustments that may be made to the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise due to future corporate events or otherwise. In the case of certain fundamental transactions affecting the Company, the holder of such Series A Warrants, upon exercise of such warrants after such fundamental transaction, will have the right to receive, in lieu of shares of the Company’s common stock, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property that such holder would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of the fundamental transaction, had the Series A Warrants been exercised immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. The Series A Warrants contain a “cashless exercise” feature that allows holders to exercise the warrants without a cash payment to the Company upon the terms set forth in the Series A Warrants.

 

The Series B Warrants will be exercisable, in full or in part, at any time prior to the fifth anniversary of their issuance, at an exercise price of $0.5275 per share. The Series B Warrants will provide for certain adjustments that may be made to the exercise price and the number of shares issuable upon exercise due to future corporate events or otherwise. In the case of certain fundamental transactions affecting the Company, the holder of such Series B Warrants, upon exercise of such warrants after such fundamental transaction, will have the right to receive, in lieu of shares of the Company’s common stock, the same amount and kind of securities, cash or property that such holder would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of the fundamental transaction, had the Series B Warrants been exercised immediately prior to such fundamental transaction. The Series B Warrants contain a “cashless exercise” feature that allows holders to exercise the warrants without a cash payment to the Company upon the terms set forth in the Series B Warrants.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the terms and conditions of the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants are only summaries and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Purchase Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Series A Warrants and the Series B Warrants, forms of which are included as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein.

 

Amended and Restated Promissory Note

 

On the Closing Date and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company will issue Brainlab an unregistered, amended and restated secured note (the “New Note”), which shall have the same terms and conditions as the Old Note, except that: (i) the principal amount of the New Note shall be $2,000,000; (ii) interest shall be paid quarterly in arrears; and (iii) the maturity date of the New Note will be December 31, 2018.

 

The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the New Note is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the New Note, a form of which is included as Exhibit 4.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

 

Non-Exclusive License Agreement

 

On the Closing Date and pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company and Brainlab will enter into a patent and technology license (the “License Agreement”), allowing Brainlab to develop proprietary software to support the Company’s SmartFrame® device, for use in neurosurgery. The License Agreement will not affect the Company’s ability to continue to independently develop, market and sell its own software for the SmartFrame® device.

 

The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the License Agreement is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the License Agreement, a form of which is included as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.03.Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K above is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 3.02.     Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K above is incorporated herein by reference.

 

In the Unit Transaction, the Company offered and will sell its securities to Brainlab in reliance upon exemptions from registration afforded by Section 4(a)(2) and Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Purchase Agreement contains representations to support the Company’s reasonable belief that Brainlab had access to information concerning the Company’s operations and financial condition, Brainlab did not acquire the securities with a view to the distribution thereof in the absence of an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from registration, and that Brainlab is a “Non-U.S. Person,” as that term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Company relied upon the representations made by Brainlab in the Purchase Agreement in determining that such exemptions were available.

 

Item 7.01.     Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On March 22, 2016, the Company issued a press release announcing the entry into the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
