Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 5, 2014,  Wireless Ronin Technologies, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with Broadcast Acquisition Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of RNIN (“Merger Sub”), and Broadcast International, Inc.    Broadcast International is a provider of managed video solutions, including digital signage, OTT (Over the Top) networks, IPTV, and live/on-demand content distribution for the enterprise.    

The Merger Agreement contemplates a reverse triangular merger with Broadcast International surviving the merger with Merger Sub and thereby becoming a wholly owned operating subsidiary of Wireless Ronin (the “Merger”).   As a result of the Merger, the holders of Broadcast International common stock and securities convertible or exercisable into shares of BCST common stock outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”),  will be entitled to receive a number of shares of Wireless Ronin common stock (together with securities issuable for shares of Wireless Ronin common stock) equivalent to approximately 36.5% of Wireless Ronin common stock outstanding immediately after the Merger, calculated on a modified fully diluted basis.

The completion of the Merger is contingent upon customary closing conditions in addition to (i) the approval of Merger by the shareholders of Broadcast International,  (ii) subject to certain materiality-based exceptions, the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by, and the compliance or performance of the obligations of, each of Wireless Ronin and Broadcast International set forth in the Merger Agreement, and (iii) the declaration of the effectiveness by the Securities and Exchange Commission of a  Registration Statement on Form S-4 to be filed by Wireless Ronin in connection with the Merger.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including covenants obligating each of Wireless Ronin and Broadcast International to continue to conduct their respective businesses in the ordinary course, and to provide reasonable access to each other’s information.  

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights in favor of each of Broadcast International and Wireless Ronin.  In addition, the Merger Agreement provides that, in connection with certain terminations of the Merger Agreement, depending upon the circumstances surrounding the termination, one party may be required to pay the other party a termination fee of $100,000.

The Merger Agreement is attached to this report as Exhibit 2.1.  The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated and effected thereby is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the contents of the actual Merger Agreement.

A press release announcing the Merger Agreement is also attached to this report as Exhibit 99.1.
