Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

The purpose of this Form 8-K/A is to file the specimen Certificate for the common stock of TransEnterix, Inc. (the “Company”) to reflect the new CUSIP Number.

The Company filed a Certificate of Amendment to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, on March 31, 2014 (the “Amendment”). The Amendment was filed to amend the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to reflect a reverse stock split of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share that had been approved by a majority of its stockholders and designated and approved by the Board of Directors. Pursuant to the reverse stock split, at the effective time each five (5) shares of common stock issued and outstanding were combined into one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock. The Amendment provides that no fractional shares will be issued; the Company shall pay in cash the fair value of such fractional shares.

The Amendment was filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Form 8-K filed on April 1, 2014 (Items 5.03 and 9.01) and is incorporated herein by reference. The Specimen Common Stock Certificate is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Form 8-K/A.

The Company’s common stock is listed for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board. Concurrently with the effectiveness of the reverse stock split, a “D” was appended to the Company’s trading symbol, TRXC, which will be removed twenty business days after the effective date of the reverse stock split, or earlier if the Company’s common stock is listed on the NYSE MKT.
