ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

Effective May 15, 2024, Monogram Orthopaedics Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) will change its corporate name from Monogram Orthopaedics Inc., to Monogram Technologies Inc. (the “Name Change”). The Name Change will be effected through a parent/subsidiary short form merger pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated May 14, 2024 but effective May 15, 2024 (the “Merger Agreement”). In accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Monogram Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”) pursuant to Section 253 of the General Corporate Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”). The Company is the surviving corporation and pursuant to the Certificate of Merger (as defined below), will change its name to Monogram Technologies as of the effective date and time.

To effectuate the Merger, the Company filed a Certificate of Ownership and Merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on May 14, 2024, which is effective as of May 15, 2024.

The Merger and resulting Name Change do not affect the rights of security holders of the Company. The Company’s common stock will continue to be quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market, under the symbol “MGRM”. Following the Name Change, existing stock certificates, which reflect the Company’s prior corporate name, will continue to be valid. Certificates reflecting the new corporate name will be issued in due course as old stock certificates are tendered for exchange or transfer to the Company’s transfer agent.

The Merger will not affect any of the Company’s material contracts with any third parties, and the Company’s rights and obligations under such material contractual arrangements will continue to be rights and obligations of the Company after the Merger. The Merger will not result in any change in headquarters, business, jobs, management, location of any of the offices or facilities, number of employees, assets, liabilities or net worth of the Company. With the except of the Name Change, there will be no changes to the Company’s bylaws.

The foregoing descriptions of the Merger Agreement and the Certificate of Merger are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement and the Certificate of Merger, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 2.1 and 3.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Monogram Orthopaedics Completes Corporate Name Change to Monogram Technologies

New Name Reflects Continued Evolution as an AI-Driven Robotics Company with a Strong IP Position

AUSTIN, TX -- May 15, 2024 -- Monogram Orthopaedics Inc. (NASDAQ: MGRM) (“Monogram” or the “Company”), an AI-driven robotics company focused on improving human health with an initial focus on orthopedic surgery, today announced its plan to merge its wholly owned subsidiary, Monogram Technologies Inc. (“MT”) with and into Monogram Orthopaedics Inc. In connection with this upstream merger, the current MT will cease to exist, and Monogram's business will continue as it is currently being conducted. Further, on May 15, 2024, the effective date of the merger, the Company will change its name to Monogram Technologies Inc., and its ticker will remain “MGRM.”

“Our new name, Monogram Technologies, reflects our continued evolution since 2016 to become the AI-driven robotics company we are today and the broadening applications for our technology long term,” said Benjamin Sexson, Chief Executive Officer of Monogram. “As we progress on our accelerated path toward a 510(k) submission this year for our Monogram mBôs™ TKA System robotic surgical system and continue development of mVision navigation, we anticipate there will be other clinical and commercial applications that could leverage our disruptive technology. As Monogram Technologies, we are dedicated to improving human health through innovation. We have built a robust IP moat around our active robotics that differentiates Monogram within the orthopedic market and positions us for growth, and we remain focused on generating long-term value for our shareholders.”

For more information on Monogram and its subsidiaries, the Company recommends that stockholders, investors and any other interested parties read the Company’s public filings and press releases available under the Investor Relations section at www.monogramorthopedics.com or available at www.sec.gov.

About Monogram Technologies Inc.

Monogram Technologies (NASDAQ: MGRM) is an AI-driven robotics company focused on improving human health, with an initial focus on orthopedic surgery. The Company is developing a product solution architecture to enable patient-optimized orthopedic implants at scale by combining 3D printing, advanced machine vision, AI and next-generation robotics.

Monogram's mBôs precision robotic surgical system is designed to autonomously execute optimized paths for high-precision insertion of its FDA-cleared mPress press-fit implants. The goal is well balanced better-fitting bone sparing knee replacements. The Company initially intends to produce and market robotic surgical equipment and related software, orthopedic implants, tissue ablation tools, navigation consumables, and other miscellaneous instrumentation necessary for reconstructive joint replacement procedures. Other clinical and commercial applications for the mBôs with mVision navigation are also being explored.

Monogram has obtained FDA clearance for mPress implants. Monogram currently plans to apply for 510(k) clearance for its robotic products in the second half of 2024. The Company is required to obtain FDA clearance before it can market its products. Monogram cannot estimate the timing or assure the ability to obtain such clearances.

The Company believes that its mBôs precision robotic surgical assistants, which combine AI and novel navigation methods (mVision), will enable more personalized knee implants for patients, resulting in well balanced better-fitting knee replacements with bone sparing implants. Monogram anticipates that there may be other clinical and commercial applications for its navigated mBôs precision robot and mVision navigation.
