YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT
ELECTING MARK RAVICH TO ROCKWELL’S BOARD COULD DO LASTING HARM
May 22, 2017
Dear Fellow Shareholder:
The Rockwell Medical 2017 Annual Meeting of shareholders is fast approaching. On June 1, 2017, shareholders will have the opportunity to elect David Domzalski to our Board, an individual with the ability to help maximize shareholder value. We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity to advance our global Triferic commercialization initiative by voting on the WHITE proxy card today.
WE BELIEVE ELECTING MARK RAVICH TO THE BOARD WILL HARM THE COMPANY AND COULD PRESENT US WITH SERIOUS SETBACKS:
IT’S IMPORTANT FOR SHAREHOLDERS TO KNOW: David Richmond and Mark Ravich each personally own less than 1.0% of Rockwell Medical stock -- significantly less than the 11.8% they have stated they own on behalf of themselves and Richmond Brothers’ clients. We believe they have intentionally misled shareholders by suggesting they have more voting power than they actually have.
Despite what Richmond Brothers has said publicly, they have told us they believe Triferic will get add-on reimbursement, and the strategy to secure it before booking sales with bundled reimbursement is the correct one.
Furthermore, they have told us directly that they plan to get Mark Ravich elected to the Board this year and then launch another proxy campaign next year to gain control of the Company.
PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT BY VOTING “FOR” DAVID DOMZALSKION THE WHITE PROXY CARD TODAY!
DAVID DOMZALSKI IS THE RIGHT DIRECTOR FOR OUR BOARD
David Domzalski is completely independent of Rockwell’s Board and management. He was identified as an exceptional candidate by a third-party consulting firm as part of Rockwell’s year-long search for new directors. David has the right experience that can advance our effort to commercialize Triferic both in the U.S. and globally, to ensure shareholders see maximum returns on their investment. Mr. Domzalski's relevant and important experience includes:
This experience is all directly relevant to growing Rockwell Medical and improving share price.
WE ENCOURAGE ALL SHAREHOLDERS TO REVIEW THE FACTS AND VOTE “FOR” DAVID DOMZALSKI ON THE WHITE PROXY CARD
If you have already voted the Blue proxy card, you can still change your vote.We encourage you to act quickly by voting today at www.proxyvote.com or by calling 1-800-454-8683.
You may also vote by signing and dating the enclosed WHITE proxy card and returning it in the prepaid envelope provided. We need your help in protecting Rockwell and in creating value for all shareholders.
Thank you again for your support!
Sincerely,
The Rockwell Medical Board of Directors

About Rockwell MedicalRockwell Medical is a fully-integrated biopharmaceutical company targeting end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) with innovative products for the treatment of iron replacement, secondary hyperparathyroidism and hemodialysis.
Rockwell’s innovative drug Triferic is the only FDA approved therapy to replace iron and maintain hemoglobin in hemodialysis patients suffering from anemia. Triferic delivers iron to patients during their regular dialysis treatment, using dialysate as the delivery mechanism. Triferic has demonstrated that it safely and effectively delivers sufficient iron to the bone marrow and maintains hemoglobin, without increasing iron stores (ferritin). Rockwell intends to market Triferic to hemodialysis patients in the U.S. dialysis market and globally.
Rockwell’s FDA approved generic drug Calcitriol is for treating secondary hyperparathyroidism in dialysis patients. Calcitriol (active vitamin D) injection is indicated in the management of hypocalcemia in patients undergoing chronic renal dialysis. It has been shown to significantly reduce elevated parathyroid hormone levels. Reduction of PTH has been shown to result in an improvement in renal osteodystrophy. Rockwell intends to market Calcitriol to hemodialysis patients in the U.S. dialysis market.
Rockwell is also an established manufacturer and leader in delivering high-quality hemodialysis concentrates/dialysates to dialysis providers and distributors in the U.S. and abroad. As one of the two major suppliers in the U.S., Rockwell’s products are used to maintain human life by removing toxins and replacing critical nutrients in the dialysis patient’s bloodstream. Rockwell has three U.S. manufacturing/distribution facilities.
Rockwell’s exclusive renal drug therapies support disease management initiatives to improve the quality of life and care of dialysis patients and are intended to deliver safe and effective therapy, while decreasing drug administration costs and improving patient convenience. Rockwell Medical is developing a pipeline of drug therapies, including extensions of Triferic for indications outside of hemodialysis. Please visit www.rockwellmed.com for more information.
