Item 8.01Other Events.

 

From November 11 through November 28, 2016, in privately-negotiated transactions, NuVasive, Inc. (the “Company”) repurchased approximately $49.6 million in aggregate principal amount of its 2.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2017 (the “2017 Notes”) for total consideration of $76.1 million in cash, including accrued interest. Following these repurchases, 2017 Notes representing $76.1 million in principal amount remained outstanding.  In connection with the issuance of the 2017 Notes in June 2011, the Company entered into convertible note hedge transactions and warrant transactions with the initial purchasers (and/or their affiliates) of the 2017 Notes.  The Company intends to modify the convertible note hedge and warrant positions associated with the 2017 Notes to reflect the remaining balance of 2017 Notes outstanding.  

 

The Company funded the repurchases of the 2017 Notes using available cash, and as November 28, 2016, had no borrowings under its $150 million revolving senior credit facility.  The Company may make additional repurchases of the 2017 Notes in the future and may continue to modify the associated hedge and warrant positions in connection with any repurchases.  Unless earlier converted or repurchased, the 2017 Notes will mature on July 1, 2017.
