RADA Electronics Announces US$3.0 Million Equity Financing
Thursday April 7, 9:34 am ET

NETANYA, Israel, April 7 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RADA Electronics Industries
Ltd. (Nasdaq: RADI - News) today announced that it has entered into a definitive
agreement to raise approximately US$3.0 million from existing institutional
investors.

RADA has agreed to issue in a private placement, 965,934 ordinary shares and
1,875,000 warrants with an exercise price of US$2.10 per share for a period of
24 months from effectiveness of the registration statement registering the
shares underlying the warrants. The investors also have agreed to exercise
909,066 outstanding additional investment rights. As a result, RADA will receive
gross proceeds of approximately US$3,000,000, representing an average price of
US$1.60 per share. The closing of the transaction is expected to occur by the
end of this week.


Adar Azancot, Chief Executive Officer of RADA, commented: "We are very pleased
that we were able to conclude this financing with a few of our existing
institutional investors. These funds will provide RADA with the resources
necessary to finance the growth of our business including, the Digital Video
Recorder product line, and the new electro-optic product line that we acquired
in February with the acquisition of the assets of Vectop Limited."


The securities to be issued by RADA in the private placement have not been
registered under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may
not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable
exemption from the registration requirements. However, as part of the
transaction, RADA agreed to file a registration statement on Form F-3 with the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission for the purpose of registering
the ordinary shares issued in the private placement and the shares underlying
the warrants.


Copies of the definitive documentation relating to the transaction will be filed
with the SEC on Form 6-K.
