      1450 Infinite Drive
Louisville, CO 80027
Item 2. Identity and Background
Pursuant to Instruction C of Schedule 13D, the information required regarding CSI’s officers, directors and significant shareholders is set forth on Schedule A and incorporated herein by reference.
(a) This statement on Schedule 13D is filed by Cardiovascular Systems, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“CSI”).
(b) The principal business offices of CSI are located at 651 Campus Drive, St. Paul, Minnesota 55112.
(c) CSI is a medical device company focused on developing and commercializing interventional treatment systems for vascular disease. CSI’s initial product, the Diamondback 360° Orbital Atherectomy System, is a minimally invasive catheter system for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease. CSI is headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota.
(d) During the last five years, neither CSI nor, to the best of its knowledge, any of its executive officers or directors, has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors).
(e) During the last five years, neither CSI nor, to the best of its knowledge, any of its executive officers or directors, except as herein provided, has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
CSI’s Chief Administrative Officer and Secretary, James E. Flaherty, previously served as Chief Financial Officer of Zomax Incorporated from 1997 to 2001. On June 9, 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission filed a civil injunctive action charging Zomax Incorporated with violations of federal securities law by filing a materially misstated Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2000. The SEC further charged that in a conference call with analysts, certain of

3


 

Zomax’s executive officers, including Mr. Flaherty, misrepresented or omitted to state material facts regarding Zomax’s prospects of meeting quarterly revenue and earnings targets, in violation of federal securities law. Without admitting or denying the SEC’s charges, Mr. Flaherty consented to the entry of a court order enjoining him from any violation of certain provisions of federal securities law. In addition, Mr. Flaherty agreed to disgorge $16,770 plus prejudgment interest and pay a $75,000 civil penalty.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
On November 3, 2008, Replidyne entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the “Merger Agreement”) with CSI and Responder Merger Sub, Inc., a Minnesota corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Replidyne (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will be merged with and into CSI, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease, and CSI will be the surviving corporation (the “Merger”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Replidyne will issue, and holders of CSI capital stock will receive, shares of common stock of Replidyne, such that following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, current stockholders of Replidyne, together with holders of Replidyne options and warrants, are expected to own approximately 17% of the common stock of the combined company and current CSI stockholders, together with holders of CSI options and warrants, are expected to own or have the right to acquire approximately 83% of the common stock of the combined company, both on a fully diluted basis using the treasury stock method.
Following consummation of the Merger, Replidyne will be renamed Cardiovascular Systems, Inc. and its headquarters will be located in St. Paul, Minnesota, at CSI’s headquarters. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The consummation of the Merger and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are subject to approval by the stockholders of Replidyne and of CSI, and the satisfaction or waiver of certain other conditions as more fully described in the Merger Agreement.
As an inducement for CSI to enter into the Merger Agreement, contemporaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement, certain stockholders of Replidyne (the “Voting Agreement Stockholders”), who together with their respective affiliates beneficially own approximately 52% of the outstanding common stock of Replidyne, entered into voting agreements (the “Voting Agreements”) and irrevocable proxies (the “Irrevocable Proxies”) in favor of CSI agreeing, among other things, to vote shares representing approximately 35.1% of the outstanding common stock of Replidyne in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the Merger and certain other matters. No capital of CSI is expected to be expended by CSI in connection with the exercise of its rights with respect to the 9,505,829 shares of the Replidyne’s common stock covered by the Voting Agreements. The form of the Voting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
As further described in Item 3 above, this statement relates to the merger of Merger Sub with and into CSI, in a statutory merger pursuant to the provisions of the Minnesota Business Corporation Act. At the effective time of Merger, the separate existence of Merger Sub will cease and CSI

4


 

will continue as the surviving corporation and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Replidyne. Each share of CSI common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Merger will be canceled, extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive that number of shares of Replidyne common stock as determined pursuant to the exchange ratio described in the Merger Agreement. In addition, Replidyne will assume options and warrants to purchase shares of CSI common stock which will become exercisable for shares of Replidyne common stock, adjusted in accordance with the same exchange ratio. The exchange ratio will be based on the number of outstanding shares of capital stock of Replidyne and CSI, and any outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares of capital stock of Replidyne and CSI, and Replidyne’s net assets, in each case calculated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement as of immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, and will not be calculated until such time. Following the Merger, the combined company expects to continue to be publicly traded under the name Cardiovascular Systems, Inc. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Merger Agreement attached as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule 13D, and incorporated herein by reference.
As an inducement for CSI to enter into the Merger Agreement, contemporaneously with the execution of the Merger Agreement, the Voting Agreement Stockholders entered into Voting Agreements and Irrevocable Proxies in favor of CSI agreeing, among other things, to vote shares representing approximately 35.1% of the outstanding common stock of Replidyne: (a) in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the Merger, and in favor of each of the other actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; and (b) generally against any action or agreement that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to delay, prevent or adversely affect the Merger. In addition, each Voting Agreement Stockholder has agreed to (a) be subject to certain restrictions on the transfer of its shares of Replidyne’s common stock and (b) irrevocably waive any rights to demand appraisal of any shares of Replidyne’s common stock which may arise with respect to the Merger or any related transaction. Nothing in the Voting Agreements limit or restrict the Voting Agreement Stockholders from acting in such Voting Agreement Stockholders’ capacity as a director of Replidyne, if applicable.
The Voting Agreements terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which Merger is consummated, (ii) April 30, 2009, (iii) the date of any modification, waiver or amendment to the Merger Agreement in a manner that reduces the amount and form of consideration payable to the Voting Agreement Stockholder, and (iv) the termination of the Merger Agreement.
Pursuant to the Irrevocable Proxies contained in the Voting Agreements, each Voting Agreement Stockholder also irrevocably appointed certain executive officers of CSI to act as exclusive attorneys and proxies, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, as such Voting Agreement Stockholder’s lawful attorney and proxy. Such Irrevocable Proxies give the proxy holders the limited right to vote any shares of Replidyne’s common stock that are subject to the Voting Agreements in favor of the approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the Merger and certain other matters. The Voting Agreement Stockholders retain the right to vote such shares in their discretion with respect to matters other than those identified in the Voting Agreements.
The names of the Voting Agreement Stockholders and the number of shares of Replidyne’s common stock and the percentage ownership that are subject to the Voting Agreements is set forth in Schedule B hereto which is hereby incorporated by reference. The foregoing summary is

5


 

qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the form of Voting Agreement attached as Exhibit 2 to this Schedule 13D, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, Replidyne shall take all necessary action to cause each of the individuals identified by CSI to be appointed as a director of Replidyne effective after the closing of the Merger. It is intended that CSI will assume a majority of the positions on Replidyne’s board of directors. Current Replidyne directors, Edward Brown and Augustine Lawlor, are expected to continue as directors of Replidyne after the closing of the Merger. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to Section 5.10 of the Merger Agreement attached as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule 13D, and incorporated herein by reference.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, prior to the effective time of the Merger, Replidyne shall recommend that its stockholders amend its certificate of incorporation, whereby each share of Replidyne’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the filing of the amendment to Replidyne’s certificate of incorporation shall be automatically combined into and become a fractional number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Replidyne common stock to be determined by Replidyne and CSI by mutual agreement (the “Reverse Stock Split”), and (ii) any shares of Replidyne common stock held as treasury stock or held or owned by Replidyne immediately prior to the filing of the amendment to Replidyne’s certificate of incorporation shall each be converted into and become an identical fractional number of shares of Replidyne common stock as provided in the Reverse Stock Split. Replidyne’s bylaws shall be amended and restated in a form reasonably acceptable to Replidyne and CSI. In addition, Replidyne shall use commercially reasonable efforts to submit to its stockholders a proposal that Replidyne assume CSI’s stock option plans from and after the effective time of the Merger, with such amendments as CSI may deem reasonably necessary and an increase in the number of shares reserved for issuance under CSI’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan in an amount mutually agreed upon by Replidyne and CSI. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to Sections 1.5 and 5.5 of the Merger Agreement attached as Exhibit 1 to this Schedule 13D, and incorporated herein by reference.
Other than as described above, CSI currently has no plans or proposals that relate to, or may result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4 (a) — (j) of Schedule 13D (although CSI reserves the right to develop such plans or proposals).
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer
As a result and subject to the terms of the Voting Agreements and the Irrevocable Proxies granted pursuant thereto, CSI may be deemed to have the power to vote an aggregate of 9,505,829 shares of Replidyne’s common stock, in each case for the limited purposes described in Item 4 above. Such shares constitute approximately 35.1% of the issued and outstanding shares of Replidyne’s common stock based on the number of shares outstanding at November 3, 2008. Other than with respect to the voting rights granted to CSI pursuant to the Voting Agreements and the Irrevocable Proxies, CSI does not have the right to vote such shares on any other matters. CSI shares such voting power with the executives of CSI identified in the Irrevocable Proxies. CSI does not have any power to dispose or direct the disposition of any shares of Replidyne’s common stock.

Except as described herein, CSI has not effected any transaction in Replidyne’s common stock during the past 60 days.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
The information provided and incorporated by reference in Items 3, 4 and 5 is hereby incorporated by reference.
Other than as described in this Schedule 13D there are no other contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) between CSI and any person with respect to any securities of Replidyne including but not limited to the transfer or voting of any securities of Replidyne, finder’s fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies.

7.

     (iv) agrees not to assert (by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise), in any such legal proceeding commenced in any state or federal court located in the State of Delaware, any claim that Stockholder is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of such court, that such legal proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such proceeding is improper or that this Agreement or the subject matter of this Agreement may not be enforced in or by such court.
Nothing contained in this Section 8.9 shall be deemed to limit or otherwise affect the right of the Company to commence any legal proceeding or otherwise proceed against Stockholder in any other forum or jurisdiction.
     (c) STOCKHOLDER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROXY OR THE ENFORCEMENT OF ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE PROXY.
     8.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

     8.13 Waiver. No failure on the part of the Company to exercise any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, and no delay on the part of the Company in exercising any power, right, privilege or remedy under this Agreement, shall operate as a waiver of such power, right, privilege or remedy; and no single or partial exercise of any such power, right, privilege or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right, privilege or remedy. The Company shall not be deemed to have waived any claim available to the Company arising out of this Agreement, or any power, right, privilege or remedy of the Company under this Agreement, unless the waiver of such claim, power, right, privilege or remedy is expressly set forth in a written instrument duly executed and delivered on behalf of the

8.


 

Company; and any such waiver shall not be applicable or have any effect except in the specific instance in which it is given.
     8.14 Term. This Agreement and all obligations hereunder shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the day after the Merger is consummated, (ii) April 30, 2009, (iii) the date of any modification, waiver or amendment to the Merger Agreement in a manner that reduces the amount and form of consideration payable thereunder to Stockholder, and (iv) the termination of the Merger Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Stockholder makes no agreement or understanding herein in any capacity other than in its capacity as a record holder and beneficial owner of the Subject Securities.

     (c) As used in this Agreement, the words “include” and “including,” and variations thereof, shall not be deemed to be terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”

Exhibit A
Form Of Irrevocable Proxy
     The undersigned stockholder (the “Stockholder”) of Replidyne, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Replidyne”), hereby irrevocably (to the fullest extent permitted by law) appoints and constitutes David L. Martin, Laurence L. Betterley and Cardiovascular Systems, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (the “Company”), and each of them, the attorneys and proxies of the Stockholder with full power of substitution and resubstitution, to the full extent of the Stockholder’s rights with respect to the outstanding shares of capital stock of Replidyne owned of record by the Stockholder as of the date of this proxy, which shares are specified on the final page of this proxy (the “Shares”). Upon the execution hereof, all prior proxies given by the Stockholder with respect to any of the Shares are hereby revoked, and the Stockholder agrees that no subsequent proxies will be given with respect to any of the Shares.
     This proxy is irrevocable, is coupled with an interest and is granted in connection with the Voting Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between the Company and the Stockholder (the “Voting Agreement”), and is granted in consideration of the Company entering into the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of the date hereof, among Replidyne, Responder Merger Sub, Inc. and the Company (the “Merger Agreement”). This proxy will terminate on the Voting Covenant Expiration Date (as defined in the Voting Agreement).
     The attorneys and proxies named above will be empowered, and may exercise this proxy, to vote not less than 68.0% of the Shares at any time until the Voting Covenant Expiration Date at any meeting of the stockholders of Replidyne, however called, and in connection with any written action by consent of stockholders of Replidyne:
     (i) in favor of the Merger (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the execution and delivery by Replidyne of the Merger Agreement and the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the terms thereof, in favor of each of the other actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and in favor of any action in furtherance of any of the foregoing; and
     (ii) against any action or agreement that would result in a material breach of any covenant or obligation of Replidyne in the Merger Agreement that would have the effect of preventing or materially delaying the Merger; and
     (iii) against the following actions (other than the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the consummation of a Pipeline Transaction (as defined in the Merger Agreement) and any actions relating to the winding up of Replidyne’s business in accordance with the Merger Agreement)): (A) any extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving Replidyne or any subsidiary of Replidyne; (B) any sale, lease or transfer of a material amount of assets of Replidyne or any subsidiary of Replidyne; (C) any reorganization, recapitalization, dissolution or liquidation of Replidyne or any subsidiary of Replidyne; (D) any change in a majority of the board of directors of Replidyne; (E) any amendment to Replidyne’s certificate of

A-1


 

incorporation or bylaws that would prevent or materially delay the Merger; (F) any Acquisition Transaction; and (G) any other action which is intended, or could reasonably be expected to impede, interfere with, delay, postpone, discourage or adversely affect the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the Voting Agreement.
     The Stockholder may vote the Shares on all other matters not referred to in this proxy, and the attorneys and proxies named above may not exercise this proxy with respect to such other matters.
     This proxy shall be binding upon the heirs, estate, executors, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Stockholder (including any transferee of any of the Shares).
     Any term or provision of this proxy that is invalid or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction. If the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid or unenforceable, the Stockholder agrees that the court making such determination shall have the power to limit the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or to replace any invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this proxy shall be enforceable as so modified. In the event such court does not exercise the power granted to it in the prior sentence, the Stockholder agrees to replace such invalid or unenforceable term or provision with a valid and enforceable term or provision that will achieve, to the extent possible, the economic, business and other purposes of such invalid or unenforceable term.
