Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Exchange/Repurchase Agreements

 

On July 27, 2017, Accuray Incorporated (the “Company”) entered into privately-negotiated agreements (the “Exchange/Repurchase Agreements”) with a limited number of existing holders of the Company’s outstanding 3.50% Convertible Senior Notes due 2018 (the “2013 notes”) and 3.50% Series A Convertible Senior Notes due 2018 (the “2014 notes” and, together with the 2013 notes, the “existing notes”) who are both institutional “accredited investors” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) and “qualified institutional buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) (such existing holders, the “Exchange Participants”) to (i) exchange (the “Exchange”) approximately $47 million aggregate principal amount of the Exchange Participants’ existing notes for $53 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s newly-issued 3.75% convertible senior notes due 2022 (the “new notes”) and (ii) repurchase (the “Repurchase”) approximately $28 million aggregate principal amount of additional existing notes for cash with the proceeds of the cash issuance (as defined and described below).

 

Subscription Agreements

 

On July 27, 2017, the Company also entered into privately-negotiated agreements (the “Subscription Agreements” and, together with the Exchange/Repurchase Agreements, the “Agreements”) with certain other qualified new investors who are both institutional accredited investors and qualified institutional buyers (the “Purchasers”) to sell $32 million aggregate principal amount of new notes to the Purchasers (the “cash issuance” and, together with the Exchange and Repurchase, the “Transactions”). As discussed above, the proceeds from the cash issuance will be used to repurchase the existing notes tendered in the Repurchase.

 

The Transactions are expected to close on August 7, 2017, subject to customary closing conditions. Consummation of the Repurchase is conditioned on the closing of the cash issuance.

 

Following the closing of the Transactions, the Company anticipates that $40 million aggregate principal amount of the existing notes will remain outstanding.

 

The foregoing description of the Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the forms of the Agreements, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

The Company issued and sold the new notes to the Exchange Participants and the Purchasers in a private placement in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act. The Company relied on this exemption from registration based in part on representations made by the Exchange Participants and the Purchasers in the Agreements. The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02.
