Medtech Veteran and Catheter Precision CEO and Founder David Jenkins to Serve as Executive Chairman

Enters Agreements to Raise up to $9.3 Million in Equity

Ra Medical Systems, Inc. (NYSE American: RMED) (“Ra Medical” or the “Company”) announces the completion of its previously announced stock-for-stock merger transaction with Catheter Precision, Inc., a company focused on the cardiac electrophysiology market. Medtech veteran and Catheter Precision CEO and founder David Jenkins has joined Ra Medical’s Board of Directors as Executive Chairman. Mr. Jenkins was instrumental in operating several medical device startups, including Transneuronix, Inc., which was acquired by Medtronic plc (NYSE: MDT) in July 2005, and EP MedSystems, Inc., which was acquired by St. Jude Medical (now owned by Abbott (NYSE: ABT)) in July 2008. James Caruso will also join the Board, to serve alongside continuing directors Martin Colombatto, Will McGuire and Susanne Meline.

Catheter Precision’s lead product, VIVO™ (an acronym for View Into Ventricular Onset), is an FDA-cleared and CE mark product that utilizes non-invasive inputs to locate the origin of ventricular arrhythmias. VIVO has been used in more than 800 procedures in leading U.S. and European hospitals under a limited commercial launch that commenced in the third quarter of 2021. Preparations are underway for a full commercial launch in the first quarter of 2023. Catheter Precision’s product portfolio also includes the Amigo®, a robotic arm that serves as a catheter control device. Catheter Precision is developing a third product, anticipated to be released in 2023, which is a device to assist in the closure of the percutaneous insertion site used in minimally invasive procedures, such as catheter ablation.

About the transaction, Mr. Jenkins stated, “We are excited to bring Catheter Precision into a public company environment via the merger with RMED, which allows us access to an additional pool of capital. Subject to closing the private placement financing that is contingent upon the approval of Ra Medical’s stockholders, and assuming the exercise of all repriced warrants, we will have approximately $12.5 million of net cash, which should provide at least two years of operating capital, positioning us to meet both our short-term and longer-term goals.”

Mr. McGuire added, “We have been eagerly awaiting the consummation of this merger. The field of cardiac electrophysiology presents a promising opportunity for Ra Medical and our shareholders. Teaming up with David Jenkins and his team, and Catheter Precision’s product line up based on unique electrophysiology technology brings us prospects for a bright future.”

About the Merger

In conjunction with the merger, Catheter Precision stakeholders will convert approximately $25 million of outstanding debt and all Catheter Precision equity into non-voting Convertible Preferred Stock of RMED, which is potentially convertible into approximately 15,403,255 shares of RMED common stock, including assumed Catheter options, and representing approximately 87.7% of the total equity of Ra Medical, on a fully diluted basis, excluding out of the money convertible securities and Series E Warrants issued today. The majority of the Preferred Stock is expected to be held for at least 18 months, with the remainder converting to common shares upon RMED shareholder approval. Under a beneficial ownership blocker, former Catheter Precision stakeholders, in the aggregate, are expected to own no more than 40% of the voting securities of Ra Medical for at least 18 months.

The Company’s common stock will resume trading on January 10th under the symbol RMED and will be listed on the NYSE American. Ra Medical CEO Will McGuire and Interim CFO Brian Conn will remain with the Company immediately following the closing to support the transition.

Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. is acting as financial advisor to Ra Medical in connection with the merger.

$9.3 Million Equity Financing

Simultaneously with the merger, RMED has entered into a warrant inducement offer letter and a securities purchase agreement for a private placement for gross proceeds of approximately $9.3 million. Under the warrant inducement offer letter, RMED will receive approximately $1.3 million of gross proceeds, if the repriced warrants are exercised in full. Under a private placement, RMED will receive up to $8 million of gross proceeds, subject to various conditions including approval by RMED stockholders.

The warrant inducement offer letter includes the anticipated exercise of 331,608 outstanding warrants at a reduced exercise price of $4.00 and the issuance of 331,608 new warrants, exercisable for five years at a price of $4.00 per share. Under the private placement, RMED will issue Class A units consisting of one share of RMED common stock and two warrants, each to purchase one share of common stock. For beneficial ownership purposes, in lieu of Class A units, RMED will issue Class B units consisting of one share of non-voting convertible preferred stock and two warrants. The private placement is subject to various conditions, including approval by RMED stockholders. The Class A and Class B Unit purchase price is at the lower of $3.00 or 90% of the 5-day volume weighted average closing price immediately prior to obtainment of RMED stockholder approval, subject to adjustment per the securities purchase agreement. The warrants issued as part of the units will be exercisable for two years and six years, respectively, upon stockholder approval at an exercise price of $3.00 per share, subject to adjustment in the securities purchase agreement. All warrants and convertible preferred stock are fixed price and do not contain any variable price adjustments or anti-dilution provisions.

Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. is acting as the exclusive warrant inducement agent and the exclusive placement agent in the equity financings.
