ENDOLOGIX, INC. (NASDAQ:ELGX) Files An 8-K Other Events
Item 8.01 Other Events.

On December 13, 2016, Endologix, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it received notice from its Notified Body in the European Union (the “Notified Body”) that the Company would be receiving a suspension of the CE Mark for the AFX^® system (“AFX”) within a few days. The suspension by the Notified Body is due to reports of Type III endoleaks with a prior generation of the device. The Company has, for its current generation of AFX products, implemented device and graft material improvements and updated instructions for use resulting in a substantial reduction in reported Type III endoleaks. In addition, no reports of Type III endoleaks have been reported with the Company’s AFX2 system (“AFX2”). The Company intends to provide documentation of the foregoing reduction in Type III endoleaks to the Notified Body and anticipates the CE Mark for AFX and AFX2 to be re-instated in January 2017. The Company also intends to share this information and additional background on the improvements to AFX and AFX2 in an upcoming letter to physicians in January 2017.

During the suspension, the Company’s Nellix^® EndoVascular Aneurysm Sealing System and Ovation^® System are available to physicians in Europe. AFX and AFX2 systems that were shipped to customers prior to the effectiveness of the suspension can still be implanted and are expected to provide excellent clinical outcomes. AFX and AFX2 continue to be available in the United States, Japan, and other international markets.
