EXPLANATORY NOTE

REGISTRATION OF ADDITIONAL SHARES

PURSUANT TO GENERAL INSTRUCTION E

On May 23, 2017, at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Stereotaxis, Inc. (the “Registrant” or “Company”), the shareholders of the Company approved the fourth amendment (the “Fourth Plan Amendment”) to the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as previously amended by the first amendment adopted in April 2013 and approved by the Company’s shareholders on June 5, 2013 (the “First Plan Amendment”), the second amendment adopted in March 2014 and approved by the Company’s shareholders on June 10, 2014 (the “Second Plan Amendment”), and the third amendment adopted in February 2016 and approved by the Company’s shareholders on May 24, 2016 (the “Third Plan Amendment”). The Fourth Plan Amendment was previously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors in February 2017, subject to such shareholder approval. The Fourth Plan Amendment provides, among other things, that a maximum of 8,290,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), may be issued thereunder. Previously, 790,000 shares were authorized under the Plan and registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 previously filed on January 22, 2013 (Registration No. 333-186124) (the “January 2013 S-8”); an additional 1,000,000 shares were authorized under the First Plan Amendment and registered under the Securities Act, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 previously filed on May 5, 2014 (Registration No. 333-195674) (the “May 2014 S-8”); an additional 1,000,000 shares were authorized under the Second Plan Amendment and registered under the Securities Act, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 previously filed on August 7, 2014 (Registration No. 333-197929); and an additional 1,500,000 shares were authorized under the Third Plan Amendment and registered under the Securities Act, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 previously filed on August 10, 2016 (Registration No. 333-213052) (collectively, with the January 2013 S-8, the May 2014 S-8, and the August 2014 S-8, the “Previous S-8”), which remain in full force and effect.

The Company is filing this Registration Statement to register under the Securities Act an additional 4,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock to be issued pursuant to the Fourth Plan Amendment. The additional shares to be registered by this Registration Statement are of the same class as those securities covered by the Previous S-8. Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8, the contents of the Previous S-8 are incorporated herein by reference and this Registration Statement is only required to include those items specified by such instruction.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references made herein to “Stereotaxis,” “we,” “us,” “our” and “ours” refer to Stereotaxis, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Item 5.

Item 6.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, our directors shall not be liable to the Company or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. In addition, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that we may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, indemnify any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action, suit or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that such person or his or her testator or intestate is or was a director, officer or employee of the Company, or any predecessor of the Company, or serves or served at any other enterprise as a director, officer or employee at the request of the Company.

Our amended and restated bylaws provide that the Company shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent not prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law or any other law. We are not required to indemnify any director or officer in connection with a proceeding brought by such director or officer unless (i) such indemnification is expressly required by law; (ii) the proceeding was authorized by our board of directors; or (iii) such indemnification is provided by the Company, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under the Delaware General Corporation Law or any other applicable law. In addition, our amended and restated bylaws provide that the Company may indemnify its employees and other agents as set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law or any other applicable law.

We have also entered into separate indemnification agreements with our directors and officers that require us, among other things, to indemnify each of them against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service with the Company or on behalf of the Company, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct of a culpable nature. The Company is not required to indemnify under the agreement for (i) actions initiated by the director without the authorization of consent of the board of directors; (ii) actions initiated to enforce the indemnification agreement unless the director is successful; (iii) actions resulting from violations of Section 16 of the Exchange Act in which a final judgment has been rendered against the director; and (iv) actions to enforce any non-compete or non-disclosure provisions of any agreement.

The indemnification provided for above provides for reimbursement of all losses of the indemnified party, including expenses, judgment, fines and amounts paid in settlement. The right to indemnification set forth above includes the right for us to pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition in certain circumstances.

---

The Delaware General Corporation Law provides that indemnification is permissible only when the director, officer, employee, or agent acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct was unlawful. The Delaware General Corporation Law also precludes indemnification in respect of any claim, issue, or matter as to which an officer, director, employee, or agent shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine that, despite such adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court deems proper.

 

Item 7.

Exemption From Registration Claimed.

Not applicable.

 

Item 8.

Exhibits.

The Exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Exhibit Index to this Registration Statement, which Index is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 9.

Undertakings.

(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i) to include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.

---

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by registrant pursuant to Section 13 and Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act to any purchaser:

(i) Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of the Registration Statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the Registration Statement; and

(ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7), (b)(5), or (b)(7) of the Securities Act as part of this registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of and included in this registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in this registration statement or prospectus that is part of this registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into this registration statement or prospectus that is part of this registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in this registration statement or prospectus that was part of this registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date;

(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

---

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re:	Stereotaxis, Inc.

Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Stereotaxis, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with its registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by means of a registration statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”), of an aggregate of 4,000,000 additional shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), which may be issued pursuant to the Stereotaxis, Inc. 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), as amended by those certain amendments, which were approved by the shareholders on June 5, 2013 (the “First Plan Amendment”), June 10, 2014 (the “Second Plan Amendment”), May 24, 2016 (the “Third Plan Amendment”) and May 23, 2017 (the “Fourth Plan Amendment”).

In connection herewith, we have examined:

 

(a)

the Registration Statement;

 

(b)

the Plan, the First Plan Amendment, the Second Plan Amendment, the Third Plan Amendment and the Fourth Plan Amendment;

 

(c)

the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company; and

 

(d)

the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company.

We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such other corporate records, agreements and instruments of the Company, statements and certificates of public officials and officers of the Company, and such other documents, records and instruments, and we have made such legal and factual inquiries, as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for us to render the opinions hereinafter expressed. In our examination of the foregoing, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal competence and capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies or by facsimile or other means of electronic transmission, or which we obtained from the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“Edgar”) or other sites maintained by a court or governmental authority or regulatory body and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. If any documents we examined in printed, word processed or similar form have been filed with the SEC on Edgar or such court or governmental

authority or regulatory body, we have assumed that the document so filed is identical to the document we examined except for formatting changes. When relevant facts were not independently established, we have relied without independent investigation as to matters of fact upon statements of governmental officials and upon representations made in or pursuant to the certificates and statements of appropriate representatives of the Company.

In connection herewith, we have assumed that, other than with respect to the Company, all of the documents referred to in this opinion letter have been duly authorized by, have been duly executed and delivered by, and constitute the valid, binding and enforceable obligations of, all of the parties to such documents, all of the signatories to such documents have been duly authorized and all such parties are duly organized and validly existing and have the power and authority (corporate or other) to execute, deliver and perform such documents.

Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, and subject to the assumptions, comments, qualifications, limitations and exceptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized for issuance, and when issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the Plan, the First Plan Amendment, the Second Plan Amendment, the Third Plan Amendment and the Fourth Plan Amendment, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

This opinion is not rendered with respect to any laws other than the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. The opinions set forth herein are made as of the date hereof and are subject to, and may be limited by, future changes in the factual matters set forth herein, and we undertake no duty to advise you of the same. The opinions expressed herein are based upon the law in effect (and published or otherwise generally available) on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to revise or supplement these opinions should such law be changed by legislative action, judicial decision or otherwise. In rendering our opinions, we have not considered, and hereby disclaim any opinion as to, the application or impact of any laws, cases, decisions, rules or regulations of any other jurisdiction, court or administrative agency.

This opinion is being delivered by us in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC. We do not render any opinions except as set forth above. We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus which forms part of the Registration Statement. We also consent to your filing copies of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement with such agencies of such states as you deem necessary in the course of complying with the laws of such states regarding the offering and sale of the securities addressed herein. In giving such consent, we do not thereby concede that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder.

Very truly yours,
