Item 1.01      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 17, 2017, Sun BioPharma, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Note Purchase Agreements (the “Purchase Agreements”) with the investors named therein (the “Investors”) and closed the transactions governed thereby. Pursuant to the March 17, 2017 Purchase Agreements, the Company issued to the Investors $711,000 in original principal amount of unsecured convertible promissory notes (the “Notes”). To date, the Company has received a total of $3,076,000 in gross proceeds in connection with the issuance of Notes in the February 17, 2017, March 3, 2017, March 10, 2017 and March 17, 2017 closings.

Amounts borrowed under the Notes are scheduled to mature on December 1, 2018 and will bear interest at a rate of 5.0% per annum. Principal and interest on the Notes are payable at maturity. The Company may prepay the Notes in whole or in part at any time without penalty or premium. The Notes may be converted into shares of common stock or other securities of the Company upon certain triggering events as described in the Notes, including certain transactions and upon the request of a holder of any Note. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the Notes require the Company to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Notes and any unpaid accrued interest. The Company expects to use the net proceeds from the sales of the Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes.
