MedTech Acquisition Corporation Announces Adjournment of its Special Meeting in lieu of an Annual Meeting of Stockholders

The Company recommends all of its stockholders to vote FOR the Extension Amendment at the upcoming Special Meeting.

New York, NY, Dec. 07, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MedTech Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: MTAC) (“MedTech” or the “Company”) today announced that on December 7, 2022, it convened and then adjourned, without conducting other business, its special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) in lieu of its 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders from December 7, 2022 to 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on December 12, 2022. The Special Meeting is being adjourned in order to solicit more votes toward the approval to amend the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (“Extension Amendment”) to extend the date by which the Company must complete a business combination from December 22, 2022 to June 22, 2023 (or such earlier date as determined by the Board of Directors). The Company plans to continue to solicit proxies for the Special Meeting until December 12, 2022.

The record date for the Special Meeting remains the close of business on October 24, 2022 (the “Record Date”). Stockholders who have previously submitted their proxy or otherwise voted and who do not want to change their vote need not take any action. Stockholders as of the Record Date can vote, even if they have subsequently sold their shares.

On November 11, 2022, MedTech entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with MTAC Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and direct wholly owned subsidiary of MedTech (“Merger Sub”), and TriSalus Life Sciences, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“TriSalus”), pursuant to which subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth therein, Merger Sub will merge with and into TriSalus (the “Merger”), with TriSalus surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of MedTech (the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and related ancillary agreements, the “Business Combination”). Upon consummation of the Business Combination, MedTech will be renamed “TriSalus Life Sciences, Inc.”
