Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On August 11, 2016, Cryoport, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) commenced an exchange offer with respect to the Company’s outstanding warrants to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.57 per share (the “Original Warrants”). For a limited period of time, the Company is offering (the “Offer”) to holders of the Original Warrants the opportunity to exchange such Original Warrants for (1) an equal number of warrants to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $1.50 per share (the “New Warrants”), conditioned upon the immediate exercise of such New Warrants, and (2) one warrant to purchase one share of common stock at an exercise price of $3.00 per share for every four New Warrants exercised (the “Supplemental Warrants”). The Offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the offer letter/prospectus, dated August 11, 2016 (as it may be amended and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer Letter/Prospectus”), which forms part of the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 11, 2016 (as it may be amended and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Registration Statement”), and the related letter of transmittal.

 

The Original Warrants were issued (i) in July 2015 in connection with the Company’s registered public offering of 2,090,750 units (each unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock and one Original Warrant), and (ii) in January 2016 in connection with the mandatory exchange of all of the Company’s outstanding Class A Convertible Preferred Stock and Class B Convertible Preferred Stock into 4,977,038 units (each unit consisting of one share of the Company’s common stock and one Original Warrant). As of August 11, 2016, 7,067,788 Original Warrants are outstanding.

 

The terms of the New Warrants include (i) an exercise price of $1.50 per share and (ii) an exercise period that will expire concurrently with the expiration of the Offer at 5:00 p.m. (Eastern Time) on September 16, 2016, as may be extended by the Company in its sole discretion (the “Expiration Date”). In addition, the shares issuable upon exercise of the New Warrants (the “New Warrant Shares”) will be subject to a 60-day lock-up period.

 

The Supplemental Warrants are exercisable at an exercise price of $3.00 per share and are exercisable upon issuance. The Supplemental Warrants expire on the earlier of (i) three years after the date of issuance and (ii) the thirtieth (30th) day after the date that the closing price of the Company’s common stock equals or exceeds $4.50 for ten consecutive trading days.

 

The purpose of the Offer is to raise funds to support the Company’s operations by providing the holders of the Original Warrants an incentive to exchange their Original Warrants for New Warrants and Supplemental Warrants, and exercise the New Warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a significantly reduced exercise price as compared to the Original Warrants. The Company will receive all of the proceeds from the immediate exercise of the New Warrants, which will be used by the Company for business growth, including as working capital and for other general corporate purposes.

 

In addition, the Company is seeking stockholder approval of the Offer in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d). If stockholder approval of the Offer is not obtained, the Company will be limited in the amount of New Warrant Shares that it could potentially issue in connection with the Offer to 19.999% of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock at the time of issuance (or an estimated 3,023,944 shares based on 15,120,479 shares of common stock outstanding as of August 9, 2016, or the “Nasdaq Limit”). If the aggregate number of New Warrant Shares to be issued for all holders participating in the Offer is greater than the Nasdaq Limit, then each of the participating holder’s number of Original Warrants tendered will be reduced on as close to a pro rata basis as is possible.

 

Participation in the Offer requires both the tender of Original Warrants and the exercise of the New Warrants, which will happen simultaneously effective as of the expiration date of the Offer if the Original Warrants are properly tendered in the Offer.
