Item 1.01. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 29, 2011, Volcano Corporation (“Volcano”) unilaterally terminated an Agreement of Sale (the “Agreement”) with Billerica One Fortune Drive, LLC (the “Seller”) that was originally entered into on June 30, 2011. Under the Agreement, Volcano had agreed to purchase from the Seller certain real property located in Billerica, Massachusetts, including a building containing approximately 64,851 square feet located thereon (the “Property”), at a price of $7,490,000, of which Volcano previously had paid $250,000 as a deposit. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a notice of termination was sent to the Seller on July 29, 2011, effectively cancelling Volcano’s intention to purchase the Property. Under the terms of the Agreement, the deposit will be refunded to Volcano by the Seller. Other than with respect to the Agreement and a lease agreement for the Property between the Seller and Axsun Technologies, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Volcano, there is no material relationship between Volcano or any of its affiliates and the Seller.
