IOM Assure Holdings Corp

 Assure Holdings Corp. (the “Company” or “Assure”) (NASDAQ: IONM; TSXV: IOM), a provider of intraoperative neuromonitoring services, is pleased to announce the closing of a brokered private placement whereby the Company issued approximately 900,000 shares generating gross proceeds of US$4.75 million at an issue price of US$5.25 per share (the “Offering”). There were no warrants issued in connection with the Offering.

Assure management and the board of directors anticipate participating in a subsequent private placement, for aggregate gross proceeds of up to US$700,000, at an issue price to be determined in the context of the market and in accordance with Nasdaq listing requirements and following the end of the Company’s current trading blackout period under its insider trading policy. Such additional private placement is also subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”).

The net proceeds of the Offering are expected to be used to service the previously announced system-wide contract with Premier, Inc., expand our high-margin remote neurology services platform, extend our operational footprint into new states and continue to build infrastructure that supports the Company’s growth initiatives and for general working capital purposes.

Kestrel Merchant Partners LLC (the “Sponsor”) acted as the exclusive Sponsor and The Benchmark Company, LLC (the “Agent”) acted as sole placement agent in connection with the Offering. The Company has agreed to pay the Agent a cash commission representing approximately 7% of the gross proceeds of the Offering (other than with respect to certain investors as agreed to by the Company and the Agent where no commission is due).

The shares of common stock have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act, or any securities laws of any state of the United States and may not be offered or sold absent such registration or an available exemption from such registration requirements. The shares of common stock sold in the Offering are also subject to a hold period of four months and one day from the date of issuance pursuant to applicable Canadian securities laws, as well as applicable hold periods under U.S. securities laws. The Offering remains subject to the final approval of the TSXV. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy securities nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of the securities in any jurisdiction where such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of that jurisdiction.
