NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Titan Medical Inc. (the "Company") (TSX: TMD) (OTCQX: TITXF) is pleased to announce that it closed its previously announced public offering (the "Offering") earlier today pursuant to an agency agreement (the "Agency Agreement") dated March 10, 2017 between the Company and Bloom Burton Securities Inc. (the "Agent"). The Company sold 21,467,200 units (each, a "Unit") under the Offering at a price of CDN $0.35 per Unit for gross proceeds of CDN $7,513,520.

Each Unit is comprised of one common share of the Company (a "Common Share") and (i) one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant, each whole warrant exercisable for one Common Share, at a price of C$0.40 for a period of two years following the closing of the Offering (the "Closing"), and (ii) one-half of one Common Share purchase warrant, each whole warrant exercisable for one Common Share, at a price of C$0.50 for a period of four years following Closing. The Common Shares sold under the Offering will be listed and posted for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol TMD at the opening on March 16, 2017.

The Units were qualified for sale by way of a prospectus supplement dated March 10, 2017 to the Company's short form base shelf prospectus dated August 18, 2015 (together, the "Prospectus"), which has been filed in the Provinces of British Columbia, Alberta and Ontario.

The net proceeds of the Offering (the "Net Proceeds") will be used to fund continued development work in connection with the Company's SPORT™ Surgical System, as well as for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

Roth Capital Partners acted as special selling group member in connection with the Offering.

For further details regarding the Offering, please see the Company's press releases dated March 7, 2017, March 8, 2017, and March 10, 2017, the Agency Agreement and the Prospectus, copies of which are available under the Company's profile at www.sedar.com.

Related Party Transaction

An aggregate of 630,914 Units were issued to insiders of the Company under the Offering for gross proceeds of $220,819. The insider subscriptions constitute a "related party transaction" pursuant to Multilateral Instrument 61‐101 -- Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61101"). In completing the insider subscriptions, the Company relied on the exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements of MI 61‐101 set forth in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(a) of MI 61‐101, as the aggregate value of the insider subscription does not exceed 25% of the market capitalization of the Company.

The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering due to the limited time between the launch of the Offering and the Closing.
