Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions (see General Instruction A.2. below):

As previously disclosed, on September 26, 2016, Stereotaxis, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional and other accredited investors (the “Buyers”), whereby it agreed to sell, for an aggregate purchase price of $24 million, (i) an aggregate of 24,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Shares”), which are convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”), and (ii) warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase an aggregate of 36,923,077 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”). The transaction (the “Offering”) closed on September 29, 2016.

On September 29, 2016, in connection with the closing of the Offering, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”) to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, establishing the designations, preferences, powers and rights of the Preferred Shares. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations, holders of Preferred Shares are entitled to vote on an as-converted basis with the Common Stock, subject to specified beneficial ownership issuance limitations. The Preferred Shares bear dividends at a rate of six percent (6.0%) per annum, which are cumulative and accrue daily from the date of issuance on the $1,000 stated value. Such dividends will not be paid in cash, except in connection with any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or any redemption of the Preferred Shares. Each Preferred Share is convertible at the option of the holder from and after the original date of issuance, at an initial conversion price of $0.65 per share, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits, dividends, mergers, sales of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or similar transactions, subject to specified beneficial ownership issuance limitations. If the Company fails to timely issue Preferred Shares or Conversion Shares or remove legends from any such shares, in each case as and when required to do so under the Certificate of Designations, the Company will be required to pay liquidated damages to the affected holder in an amount equal to 0.25% of the product of (i) the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued or issuable on conversion of the relevant Preferred Shares and (ii) the weighted average price of the Common Stock on the last date before such failure, and may be required to pay additional or alternative damages in specified circumstances at the option of the holder. Each holder of Preferred Shares has the right to require the Company to redeem such holder’s Preferred Shares upon the occurrence of specified events, including mergers, sales of substantially all assets of the Company, and certain defaults under the Certificate of Designations and under the Registration Rights Agreement described below. The Company also has the right to redeem the Preferred Shares in the event of a Change of Control Transaction (as defined in the Certificate of Designations).

The Preferred Shares rank senior to the Company’s Common Stock as to distributions and payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company. No such distributions or payments upon the liquidation, dissolution and winding up of the Company may be made to the holders of Common Stock unless and until the holders of Preferred Shares have received the stated value of $1,000 per share plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. Until all Preferred Shares have been converted or redeemed, no dividends may be paid on the Common Stock without the prior express written consent of the holders of a majority of the outstanding Preferred Shares. In the event that dividends or other distributions if assets are made or paid by the Company to the holders of the Common Stock, the holders of Preferred Shares are entitled to participate in such dividend or distribution on an as-converted basis.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Certificate of Designations, which is incorporated herein by reference and attached hereto as Exhibit 3.1.

The information concerning the Offering, the Certificate of Designations and the terms, rights, obligations and preferences of the Preferred Shares set forth under Item 3.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 5.03 by reference.
