On October 29, 2013, we filed a prospectus with the Securities Exchange Commission relating to a rights offering in which all stockholders and certain warrant holders of Stereotaxis, Inc. received subscription rights to purchase an aggregate of up to 6,315,953 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share.  All stockholders and certain warrant holders received subscription rights to purchase 1 share of common stock at a price of $3.00 per share for every 3 shares of stock that they held as of the record date of October 31, 2013.  The NASDAQ Capital Market established Monday, November 4, 2013 as the “ex-rights” date for the rights offering. The ex-rights date is the date on which Stereotaxis’s common stock began to trade without the rights and the rights began to trade separately from the common stock. Between the record date and the ex-rights date, the rights traded together with the shares of common stock. The rights are listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “STXSR,” and will continue to be so listed until the expiration of the rights offering.The subscription rights will be exercisable until November 21, 2013 unless we choose to extend the rights offering beyond this date, which we do not currently expect to do.
