ITEM  8.01 OTHER EVENTS.

On April 5, 2013, Cardium Therapeutics, Inc. (“Cardium”) issued a press release presenting highlights of the Company’s financial results for fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, and other recent developments. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

The Company also completed the previously announced initial sale of 2,356 shares of Series A preferred stock of approximately $2.35 million in gross proceeds under a definitive agreement with a single institutional healthcare fund managed by Sabby Management LLC, Cardium’s largest shareholder. The second closing, covering the sale of 1,656 shares of Series A preferred stock, for an additional amount of approximately $1.65 million in gross proceeds, is contingent upon stockholder approval, which would bring the total financing to approximately $4.0 million in gross proceeds. Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., a subsidiary of Ladenburg Thalmann Financial Services Inc., served as the exclusive placement agent on the transaction. The net proceeds from this transaction will be used for general working capital purposes.
