CRYOPORT, INC. 

(Exact name of registrant as specified in its charter)

Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions (see General Instruction A.2 below):

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On March 3, 2016, Cyroport, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) commenced an issuer tender offer with respect to certain warrants to purchase common stock of the Company in order to provide the holders thereof with the opportunity to amend and exercise their warrants upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Company’s Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO and the related exhibits included therein (the “Offering Materials”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 3, 2016.

The Company is offering to amend, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offering Materials, the following warrants to purchase common stock (collectively, the “Original Warrants”) issued by the Company with respect to up to 2,448,000 shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants (the “Offer”):

The exercise price and number of shares issuable upon conversion of the Original Warrants have been adjusted for the 1-for-12 reverse stock split that became effective on May 19, 2015.

Pursuant to the Offer, holders may tender to us their Original Warrants and amend the terms of such warrants with respect to all or a portion of the shares purchasable under such warrants at their election (the “Elected Shares”) to: (i) reduce the exercise price to $1.25 per share; and (ii) shorten the exercise period to expire concurrently with the expiration of the Offer at 9:00 p.m. (Pacific Time) on March 30, 2016, as may be extended by the Company in its sole discretion (the “Expiration Date”).

By tendering Original Warrants, holders will also be agreeing to: (A) restrict their ability as the holder of Elected Shares issuable upon exercise of the Amended Warrants (as defined below) to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any of such shares without the prior written consent of the Company for a period of sixty (60) days after the Expiration Date (the “Lock-Up Period”); and (B) acting alone or with others, not effect any purchases or sales of any securities of the Company in any “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or any type of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, short sales, swaps, “put equivalent positions” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) or similar arrangements, or sales or other transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers through the expiration of the Lock-Up Period. The Elected Shares issued to holders upon exercise of the Amended Warrants will be subject to registration rights for the resale by the holders. Such amendments will be made pursuant to the terms of the applicable Amendment to Warrant to Purchase Common Stock (the “Amendment” and, each Original Warrant, as amended by the applicable Amendment, an “Amended Warrant”) included in the Offering Materials.

The purpose of the Offer is to raise funds to support the Company’s operations by providing the holders of the Original Warrants with the opportunity to amend and exercise their warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock at a significantly reduced exercise price, together with a shortened exercise period. The funds obtained will be used by the Company as working capital and for other general corporate purposes

In the event that a holder’s Original Warrants are properly tendered in the Offer, the Company will issue such holder the Elected Shares (subject to a pro rata reduction as described below). If a holder’s Elected Shares are less than all of the shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of their Original Warrant, the right to purchase the number of shares of common stock in excess of the Elected Shares will be reissued to such holder pursuant to a replacement warrant with the same terms and conditions of the applicable Original Warrant. In addition, if the aggregate number of Elected Shares for all holders participating in the Offer is greater than 2,448,000 shares, each of the participating holder’s number of Elected Shares will be reduced on as close to a pro rata basis as is possible without issuance of fractional shares. In such instance, the Company will issue a holder a replacement warrant reflecting the number of their Elected Shares that were not accepted as a result of the pro rata reduction, and their tendered payment for such shares will be returned to such holder.

Holders may elect to participate in the Offer with respect to some or all of their Original Warrants. If holders choose not to participate in the Offer, their Original Warrants will remain in full force and effect with no change in the terms of the Original Warrants.

The Offer will be open through 9:00 p.m., Pacific Time on March 30, 2016, as may be extended by the Company in its sole discretion.
