Your vote is very important to us. Most shareholders hold their shares in street name through a broker and may vote by using the Internet, by telephone, or by mail.

All shareholders must also present a form of personal identification to be admitted to the meeting.

On behalf of the entire Board, I thank you for your continued support and look forward to seeing you at the meeting.

	Sincerely,

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Q.	*Why am I receiving these materials?*

The Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Stereotaxis, Inc. (the “Company”) is soliciting proxies from the Company’s shareholders in connection with its 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on May 14, 2026, and all adjournments and postponements thereof. You are encouraged to vote on the proposals presented in these proxy materials. You are invited to attend the Annual Meeting, but you do not have to attend to vote.

Q.	*When and where is the Annual Meeting?*

We presently intend to hold the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on Thursday, May 14, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. Central Daylight Time, at our principal executive offices located at 710 North Tucker Boulevard, Suite 110, St. Louis, Missouri 63101.

Q.	*Why did I receive a notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?*

In accordance with rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we may furnish proxy materials, including this proxy statement and our 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, to our shareholders by providing access to such documents on the Internet instead of mailing printed copies. Most shareholders will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless they request them. Instead, the Notice, which was mailed to most of our shareholders, will instruct you as to how you may access and review all the proxy materials on the Internet. The Notice also instructs you as to how you may submit your proxy on the Internet. If you would like to receive a paper or email copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials in the Notice.

Q.	*How do I get electronic access to the proxy materials?*

The Notice will provide you with instructions regarding how to view our proxy materials for the Annual Meeting on the Internet.

Q.	*Who is entitled to vote?*

You are entitled to vote if you were a shareholder of record of shares of our common stock or Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations) at the close of business on Monday, March 16, 2026 (the “Record Date”).

On March 16, 2026, there were 97,477,538 shares of our common stock and 21,008 shares of our Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding and entitled to vote, subject to specified beneficial ownership limitations in the case of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock.

Q.	*How many votes do I have?*

Each share of common stock that you own entitles you to one vote. On the Record Date, there were a total of 97,477,538 shares of common stock outstanding. For purposes of voting, each share of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is convertible into 2,412 shares of our common stock and is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock into which it is convertible, subject to specified beneficial ownership limitations. On the Record Date there were 21,008 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding, entitling the holders of those shares to an aggregate of 23,705,445 votes, after giving effect to the beneficial ownership limitations. Accordingly, on the Record Date, the holders of our common stock and Series A Convertible Preferred Stock are entitled to an aggregate of 121,182,983 votes in respect of such shares of stock.

Q.	*What am I being asked to vote on?*

We are asking our shareholders to: (1) elect three (3) Class I directors to serve until the 2029 Annual Meeting and until, at the election of the Company, their successors are duly elected and qualified; (2) ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2026 fiscal year; and (3) to approve by non-binding vote, executive compensation, and (4) to transact such other business as may properly come before the meeting.

Q.	*What do I do if my shares of common stock are held in “street name” at a bank or brokerage firm?*

If your shares are held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer, trust, or other similar organization, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and the Notice should have been forwarded to you by that organization. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee how to vote your shares, and you are invited to attend the Annual Meeting.

Q.	*How do I vote?*

Whether you expect to be present in person at the Annual Meeting, you are requested to vote your shares. Most shareholders will be able to choose whether they wish to vote using the Internet, by telephone, or by mail. The availability of Internet voting or telephone voting for shareholders whose shares are held in street name by a bank or a broker may depend on the voting processes of that organization. If you vote using the Internet, you may incur costs such as telephone and Internet access charges for which you will be responsible. Internet and telephone voting facilities will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on May 13, 2026, the day before the date of the Annual Meeting. If you hold your shares directly as a shareholder of record and you attend the meeting, you may vote by ballot. If you hold your shares in street name through a bank or broker and you wish to vote at the meeting, you must obtain a proxy, executed in your favor, from your bank or broker.

Whether you hold shares directly as the shareholder of record or beneficially in street name, you may direct how your shares are voted without attending the Annual Meeting. If you are a shareholder of record, you may vote by proxy. You can vote by proxy over the Internet by following the instructions provided in the Notice or if you requested to receive printed proxy materials, you can also vote by mail, telephone, or the Internet pursuant to instructions provided on the proxy card. If you hold shares beneficially in street name, you may vote by proxy over the Internet by following the instructions provided in the Notice, or, if you requested to receive printed proxy materials, you can also vote by following the voting instruction card provided to you by your broker, bank, trustee, or nominee.

Q.	*What if I want to change my vote?*

If you are a shareholder of record, you can revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted at the Annual Meeting by:

	●	timely delivering a properly executed, later-dated proxy;

	●	submitting a later vote by Internet or telephone any time prior to 11:59 p.m., Eastern Daylight Time, on May 13, 2026;

	●	delivering a written revocation of your proxy to our Secretary at our principal executive offices; or

	●	voting by ballot at the meeting.

If your shares are held in the name of a bank or brokerage firm, you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your bank or broker following the instructions that they provide.

Q.	*What vote of the shareholders is needed?*

No business may be conducted at the Annual Meeting unless a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum.

In the election of directors (Proposal 1), the three nominees receiving the highest number of votes cast “FOR” their election will be elected.

The ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2026 (Proposal 2) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal.

The approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers (Proposal 3) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal. Because Proposal 3 is advisory, it will not be binding on the Company, the Board of Directors, or the Compensation Committee. However, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee will review the voting results and take them into account in the future.

Q.	*What happens if I request a paper copy of proxy material and return my signed proxy card but forget to indicate how I want my shares of common stock voted?*

If you sign, date, and return your proxy card but do not indicate how you want your shares voted, your proxy will be counted as a vote “FOR” the election of each of the nominees for director, “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2026, and “FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers. The proxy holders will vote in their discretion on any other matter that may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

Q.	*What happens if I do not instruct my broker how to vote or if I indicate I wish to “abstain” on the proxy?*

If you hold your shares in street name through a broker, bank or other nominee and do not provide voting instructions, your broker will have discretionary authority to vote your shares only on proposals considered “routine” under applicable rules. This is a “broker non-vote.” An “abstention” represents a stockholder’s affirmative choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Abstentions are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. However, abstentions will otherwise have no effect on proposals.

We expect Proposal 1, the election of directors, and Proposal 3, the advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers, to be considered non-routine matters. Accordingly, if you do not provide voting instructions, your broker will not be permitted to vote your shares on Proposal 1 or Proposal 3, which, as explained below, could result in broker non-votes on those proposals.

We expect Proposal 2, the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2026, to be considered a routine matter. Accordingly, if you do not provide voting instructions, your broker may vote your shares on Proposal 2 in its discretion. Abstentions, if any, will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. If a broker exercises its discretion to vote on Proposal 2 but does not have instructions from the beneficial owner on how to vote on Proposals 1 or 3, the underlying shares will also be counted for establishing the presence of a quorum but will result in broker non-votes for such proposal(s).

Under our bylaws, directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy duly authorized at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. As a result of such plurality voting standard, broker non-votes and abstentions, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors with respect to Proposal 1.

With respect to Proposal 2 and Proposal 3, abstentions will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” the proposal because those proposals require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the proposal. There will be no broker non-votes with respect to Proposal 2, since it is the only item on the agenda for which brokers may exercise their discretion to vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” the proposal in the absence of any instructions from the beneficial owners. Broker non-votes as to Proposal 3, if any, will have no effect on the outcome of such proposal.

Q.	*What if other matters are voted on at the Annual Meeting?*

If any other matters are properly presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting and you have voted your shares on the Internet, by telephone, or by mail, the persons named as proxies in your proxy will have the discretion to vote on those matters for you. As of the date we filed this proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Board of Directors did not know of any other matter to be presented at the Annual Meeting.

Q.	*What do I need to do if I plan to attend the meeting in person?*

All shareholders must present a form of personal identification to be admitted to the meeting. If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker, or other holder of record, you also must present proof of your ownership, such as a bank or brokerage account statement, to be admitted to the meeting.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE INFORMATION

Board Leadership Structure and Board Role in Risk Oversight

David L. Fischel became chief executive officer and chairman of the Board effective February 3, 2017. Since February 2015, David W. Benfer has served as the lead independent director. The Board believes it should retain flexibility to determine whether the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board should be combined or separated. separate The Board believes that its current leadership structure, with the roles of chief executive officer and chairman of the Board combined and Mr. Benfer serving as lead independent director, provides appropriate leadership for the Company and best serves the shareholders. Mr. Benfer provides independent leadership on the Board and works with the chief executive officer and the other independent directors to facilitate communications. Our independent directors regularly have executive sessions as part of our regular meeting schedule, during which only the independent directors are present, in accordance with Section 802(c) of the NYSE American Company Guide. Mr. Benfer leads these sessions and provides feedback to the chief executive officer and, when appropriate, other senior management.

Our Board provides risk oversight to the Company through the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee monitors financial, healthcare compliance, regulatory, and cybersecurity risks. The Audit Committee assesses with management the Company’s major risk exposures, and the steps management has taken to monitor, manage, and control such exposures, reviews management’s risk assessment and risk management programs, and reports on these matters to the full Board. This oversight process takes place through discussions at committee meetings with members of senior management responsible for the Company’s risk management policies and procedures, including the management team responsible for assessing and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats. In connection with its oversight of cybersecurity risk, the Audit Committee receives updates regarding the Company’s cybersecurity risk management program, which is integrated into the Company’s overall enterprise risk management program and includes a cybersecurity incident response plan. In addition, the Audit Committee regularly meets in a private session with the Company’s independent auditors.

Director Independence

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American under the trading symbol “STXS.” The stock began trading on the NYSE American on September 6, 2019. Prior to that date, the stock had traded on the OTCQX® Best Market since August 4, 2016. Our Board is required to evaluate and affirmatively determine the independence of our directors under the listing standards of the NYSE American, specifically, NYSE American Company Guide Section 803.

Other than David L. Fischel and Dr. Nathan Fischel, the Board determined that each member of the Board, and each member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee was independent in 2025 under the listing standards of the NYSE American.

Director Nomination Process

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and recommending to the Board candidates to serve as members of the Board. In carrying out this responsibility, the committee has adopted a written policy setting forth the minimum qualifications to serve as a director of the Company. These minimum qualifications emphasize integrity, independence, experience, strength of character, mature judgment, and technical skills applicable to the Company. The committee will also consider whether the candidate is able to represent all shareholders of the Company fairly and equally, without favoring or advancing any particular shareholder or other constituency of the Company.

The committee also seeks Board members from diverse professional backgrounds who combine a broad spectrum of experience and expertise with a reputation for integrity. Directors should have experience in positions with a high degree of responsibility, be leaders in the companies or institutions with which they are affiliated, and/or be selected based upon contributions they can make to the Company and Board. In selecting nominees, the Board does not discriminate based on race, color, national origin, sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, gender, and/or gender identity), religion, disability, or age.

The committee may approve, in its discretion, the candidacy of a nominee who does not satisfy all these requirements if it believes the service of the nominee is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The committee has written procedures for identifying and evaluating candidates for election to the Board. The material elements of that process are as follows:

	●	The committee gives due consideration to the re-nomination of incumbent directors who desire to continue their service and who continue to satisfy the committee’s criteria for membership on the Board.

	●	If there is no qualified and available incumbent, the committee will identify and evaluate new candidates and will solicit or entertain recommendations for nominees from other Board members and the Company’s management. The committee may also engage a professional search firm to assist it in identifying qualified candidates.

Nomination of Directors by Shareholders

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate candidates proposed by shareholders for nomination as directors under criteria similar to the evaluation of other candidates. Our bylaws provide that shareholders seeking to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of shareholders must provide timely notice in writing. To be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, our principal executive offices not more than 120 days or less than 90 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of shareholders. However, if the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within 30 days (before or after) such anniversary, notice must be received not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the date on which notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed to shareholders or made public, whichever occurs first. Our bylaws specify requirements as to the form and content of a shareholder’s notice. These provisions may preclude shareholders from making nominations for directors at an annual meeting of shareholders.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has established a written policy that will consider recommendations for the nomination of a candidate properly submitted by holders of the Company’s shares entitled to vote in the election of directors. The material elements of that policy include the following:

	●	The committee will consider these recommendations for positions on the Board where the committee has decided not to re-nominate a qualified incumbent director;
	●	For each annual meeting of shareholders, it is anticipated that the committee will accept for consideration only one recommendation from any shareholder or affiliated group of shareholders (within the meaning of SEC Regulation 13D); and
	●	While the committee has not established a minimum number of shares that a shareholder must own in order to present a nominating recommendation for consideration, or a minimum length of time during which the shareholder must own its shares, the committee may, in its discretion, take into account the size and duration of a recommending shareholder’s ownership interest in the Company.

The committee may, in its discretion, also consider the extent to which the shareholder making the nominating recommendation intends to maintain its ownership interest in the Company, to the extent such information is available to the committee. The committee may elect not to consider recommendations of nominees who do not satisfy the criteria described above, as well as whether the candidate can represent the interests of all shareholders and not serve for the purpose of favoring or advancing the interests of any particular shareholder group or other constituency. Absent special or unusual circumstances, only those recommendations whose submission complies with the procedural requirements adopted by the committee will be considered by the committee.

Any shareholder wishing to submit a candidate for consideration should send the following information to the Corporate Secretary, Stereotaxis, Inc., 710 North Tucker Boulevard, Suite 110, St. Louis, Missouri 63101:

	●	Shareholder’s name, number of shares owned, length of period held and proof of ownership;
	●	Name, age, business, and residential address of candidate;
	●	A detailed résumé describing, among other things, the candidate’s educational background, occupation, employment history, and material outside commitments (e.g., memberships on other boards and committees, charitable foundations);
	●	A supporting statement which describes the candidate’s reasons for seeking election to the Board and documents the candidate’s ability to satisfy the director’s qualifications described herein;
	●	Any information relating to the candidate that is required to be disclosed in the solicitation of proxies for election of director;
	●	The class and number of shares of our capital stock that are beneficially owned by the candidate;
	●	A description of any arrangements or understandings between the shareholder and the candidate; and
	●	A signed statement from the candidate, confirming the candidate’s willingness to serve on the Board.

Our Corporate Secretary will promptly forward such materials to the chair of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and our chairman of the Board. Our Corporate Secretary will also maintain copies of such materials for future reference by the committee when filling Board positions. Shareholders may submit potential director candidates at any time pursuant to these procedures.

Shareholder Communications Policy

Any shareholder wishing to send communications to our Board should send the written communication and the following information to our Corporate Secretary, Stereotaxis, Inc., 710 North Tucker Boulevard, Suite 110, St. Louis, Missouri 63101:

	●	Shareholder’s name, number of shares owned, length of period held and proof of ownership;
	●	Name, age, business, and residential address of shareholder; and
	●	Any individual director or committee to whom the shareholder would like to have the written statement and other information sent.

The Corporate Secretary will forward the information to the chairman of the Board, if addressed to the full Board, or to the specific director to which the communication is addressed.

Code of Conduct

Our Board has adopted a Code of Conduct that applies to all our directors, officers, and employees. Shareholders may download a free copy of our Code of Conduct from our website (www.stereotaxis.com) or by written request to our Chief Compliance Officer as follows:

	Matthew Stepanek, Sr. Director, Regulatory Affairs
	Stereotaxis, Inc.
	710 North Tucker Boulevard, Suite 110
	St. Louis, Missouri 63101

We intend to promptly disclose any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the Code of Conduct by posting the relevant material on our website (www.stereotaxis.com) in accordance with SEC rules.

Insider Trading Policy

We have adopted an insider trading policy governing the purchase and sale of our securities (including adoption of pre-planned trading plans, such as those permitted under Rule 10b5-1) that applies to all company personnel, including directors, officers, and employees of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, and provides that such individuals may not permit any member of their immediate family or anyone acting on their behalf to buy or sell securities that may be affected by the information. The policy also prohibits trading in securities of another company (such as a customer, supplier, or joint venture partner of Stereotaxis) when an individual is aware of material non-public information about that company. Our practice is not to engage in transactions in our securities while being aware of material non-public information relating to the Company or our securities. We believe that our insider trading policy is designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and listing standards applicable to us. A copy of our insider trading policy is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026.

Policy on Hedging and Pledging of Common Stock

Our insider trading policy prohibits our directors, officers and employees from engaging in transactions designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of Stereotaxis securities, including prepaid variable forwards, equity swaps, collars, or exchange funds. Therefore, directors, officers, and employees are prohibited from pledging Stereotaxis securities as collateral for any loan or other obligation.

Policies and Practices on the Timing of Awards of Equity Awards in Relation to the Disclosure of Material Nonpublic Information

Although we do not have a formal written policy in place regarding the timing of awards of stock options or similar awards in relation to the disclosure of material nonpublic information, our equity awards are generally granted on fixed dates determined in advance. Annual equity awards are considered as part of the pay review process that occurs at the beginning of the fiscal year at which time, as noted above, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves, among other things, annual equity awards. From time to time, our Compensation Committee may grant equity awards outside of our annual grant cycle for new hires, promotions, recognition, retention, or other purposes.

Our Compensation Committee approves all equity awards on or before the grant date. For any grants of stock options or similar equity awards, the Compensation Committee does not grant equity awards in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information. Similarly, the Compensation Committee does not time the release of material nonpublic information based on equity award grant dates for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation or otherwise.

BOARD MEETINGS AND COMMITTEES

Board Meetings

During fiscal year 2025, the Board of Directors held five meetings, in addition to acting on two occasions by unanimous written consent. During fiscal year 2025 all incumbent directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate meetings of the Board and the Board committees on which they served during the period they held office. Directors are encouraged, but not required, to attend our Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Mr. David Fischel attended our 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Board Committee Membership

The Board has established three standing committees. Presently, the standing committees are Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance. Committee membership as of the end of fiscal year 2025 was as follows:

Audit		Compensation
Ross B. Levin, Chairman		Arun Menawat, Chairman
David W. Benfer		Myriam Curet
Nachum Shamir		David W. Benfer

Nominating & Corporate Governance
David W. Benfer, Chairman
Myriam Curet
Ross B. Levin

The Board has adopted a written charter for each committee. The charters of our Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees, and our Code of Conduct are published on our website at www.stereotaxis.com, Investors, Board & Management, Governance. These materials are available in print to any shareholder upon request. From time to time, the Board and the committees review and update these documents, as they deem necessary and appropriate.

Audit Committee

The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is independent under the listing standards of the NYSE American and the enhanced independence standards for audit committee members set forth in SEC rules under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Further, our Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is financially sophisticated. At its April 2025 meeting, the Board determined that Mr. Levin qualifies as an audit committee financial expert under SEC rules and regulations based upon his extensive financial and accounting experience. The Audit Committee assists our Board in its oversight of:

	●	the integrity of our financial statements;
	●	our accounting and financial reporting process, including our internal controls;
	●	our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements;
	●	the independent registered public accountants’ qualifications and independence; and
	●	the performance of our independent registered public accountants.

The Audit Committee has direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation, retention, and oversight of our independent registered public accountants. In addition, the Audit Committee must approve in advance:

	●	any related-party transaction that creates a conflict-of-interest situation;
	●	all audit services; and
	●	all non-audit services, except for de minimis non-audit services, provided the Audit Committee has approved such de minimis services prior to the completion of the audit.

During fiscal year 2025, the Audit Committee met five times.

Compensation Committee

Our Board has determined that each director serving on the Compensation Committee during 2025 was independent under the listing standards of the NYSE American, and that each qualified as a “non-employee director” under Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The functions of the Compensation Committee include:

	●	assisting management and the Board in defining an executive compensation policy;
	●	determining the total compensation package for our chief executive officer and other executive officers;
	●	performing or, to the extent deemed appropriate delegating to our officers, reviewing and monitoring the administration of our equity- based compensation plans and qualified and non-qualified benefit plans;
	●	approving new incentive plans and major benefit programs; and
	●	approving changes to the outside directors’ compensation program.

The Compensation Committee has authority to retain compensation consultants to advise or assist the committee within the scope of its duties. The committee has direct responsibility for the appointment, retention, and compensation of the compensation consultants as well as the oversight of the work of the consultants. In selecting any compensation consultant, the committee considers the factors relevant to the consultant’s independence from management in accordance with the listing standards of the NYSE American.

During fiscal year 2025, the Compensation Committee held one meeting and acted one time by unanimous written consent.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Our Board has determined that each director serving on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee during 2025 was independent under the listing standards of the NYSE American. The functions of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee include:

	●	identifying and evaluating individuals qualified to become Board members;
	●	reviewing director nominees received from shareholders;
	●	selecting director nominees for submission to the shareholders at our annual meeting;
	●	selecting director candidates to fill any vacancies on the Board; and
	●	overseeing the structure and operations of the Board, including recommending Board committee structure, appointments, and responsibilities.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is also responsible for developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance guidelines and principles. During fiscal year 2025, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee did not meet and acted one time by unanimous written consent.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Director Compensation Policy

Under the July 2021 Non-Employee Director compensation program, each director receives an annual award of restricted share units (RSUs) equal to $200,000 annually, payable in two equal semi-annual installments valued at $100,000, with the number of RSUs issued at each semi-annual installment calculated by dividing: (a) the total semi-annual grant value of $100,000; by (b) the adjusted closing per share on the accounting grant date for each semi-annual period. The annual equity awards are made in two equal installments on the first business day of January and the first business day of July in each calendar year, paid in arrears (the first installment is compensation for the six months ending December 31st, and the second installment is compensation for the six months ending June 30th) and pro-rated if applicable (such as if a new director is nominated and elected).

Each director has the option to choose one of two vesting schedules prior to the commencement of the year. Each director may elect either for: (1) the restricted share units to vest immediately with the first option as of the date of the award; or (2) the restricted share units to vest on the earliest to occur of (i) the fifth anniversary of the date of the award, (ii) the date on which the service of the director on the Board of Directors terminates, or (iii) a “change of control” of the Company, as defined in the award agreement.

We reimburse our directors for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance and participation in Board and committee meetings (including costs of travel, food, and lodging). Reimbursements for any non-employee director did not exceed the $10,000 threshold in fiscal 2025 and thus are not included in the table below for director compensation.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following discussion and analysis of the compensation arrangements of our Named Executive Officers for 2025 is intended to provide additional context about our compensation philosophy and our Board’s compensation-related decisions in 2025. It should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures set forth below.

This discussion contains forward-looking statements that are based on our current considerations, expectations, and determinations regarding future compensation programs. The actual amount and form of compensation and the compensation programs that we adopt may differ materially from current or planned programs as summarized in this discussion.

The following discussion and analysis relate to the compensation arrangements for 2025 of (i) our principal executive officer and (ii) our principal financial officer, who are the two officers included in our Summary Compensation Table (our “Named Executive Officers”).

Executive Compensation Summary and Analysis

The Compensation Committee is tasked with discharging the Board’s responsibilities related to oversight of the compensation of our directors and officers and ensuring that our executive compensation program meets our corporate objectives. The following is a summary and analysis of the executive compensation policies, programs and practices developed by the Compensation Committee, and a description of the compensation of our Named Executive Officers.

Compensation Philosophy

The objective of our compensation program is to attract, retain, and motivate highly qualified executive officers while aligning the interests of these executives with those of shareholders. When designing compensation packages to achieve this objective, the Compensation Committee is guided by the following principles:

	●	Align pay and performance: Provide total compensation that is commensurate with stock price performance, the operational and financial success of our business, and the individual performance and contributions of executives.
	●	Manage program cost and dilution: Balance other considerations for executive pay programs with their impact on earnings, cash flow, and stock dilution.
	●	Provide competitive market pay: Targeted compensation opportunities should generally reflect levels, both in terms of size of pay opportunity and mix of pay elements observed in the competitive marketplace, as defined by the market median pay levels among companies with which we compete for talent.

We believe that adhering to these principles will create a total compensation program that supports our aim to deliver long-term shareholder value through business performance. In addition to the above principles, the Compensation Committee exercises its judgment in setting pay levels with respect to individual competencies and experience and the internal compensation equity among Named Executive Officers.

Role and Independence of the Consultant

From time to time, when deemed necessary, the Compensation Committee engages the services of an independent compensation consultant to provide the Compensation Committee with market data and analysis, advice on incentive design practices, and an external perspective on pay trends and legal and regulatory developments. No compensation consultant provided services to the Compensation Committee during fiscal 2025.

Role of Executive Officers in Compensation Decisions

For executive officers other than our CEO, the Compensation Committee has historically sought and considered input from our CEO regarding such executive officers’ responsibilities, performance, and compensation. Specifically, our CEO recommends base salary increases and equity award levels that are used throughout our compensation plans and advises the Compensation Committee regarding the compensation program’s ability to attract, retain, and motivate executive talent. These recommendations reflect compensation levels that our CEO believes are qualitatively commensurate with an executive officer’s individual qualifications, experience, responsibility level, functional role, knowledge, skills, and individual performance, as well as the Company’s performance. Our Compensation Committee considers our CEO’s recommendations but may adjust up or down as it determines in its discretion and approves the specific compensation for all the executive officers. All such compensation determinations by our Compensation Committee are discretionary.

Our CEO abstains from voting in sessions of the Board of Directors where the Board of Directors acts on the Compensation Committee’s recommendations regarding his compensation.

Executive Compensation Program

The elements of the compensation program for officers are base salary, equity-based long-term incentive awards, and benefits.

The elements of the compensation package for our CEO are heavily weighted toward his long-term incentive award made pursuant to the Company’s 2021 CEO Performance Share Unit Award Plan, which was approved by shareholders at our 2021 Annual Meeting (see “2025 Executive Compensation—Long-Term Incentive Compensation” below). We also compensate Mr. Fischel with a very modest base salary. We believe a typical compensation arrangement for a similarly situated public company in the medical device industry would provide Mr. Fischel with a six-figure annual salary and a similar six-figure annual cash bonus, as well as significant annual stock grants that could have value irrespective of stock price appreciation, and a separation agreement providing a year of salary continuation or other typical termination benefits. Under his employment agreement, Mr. Fischel only receives an annual salary of $60,000. The Company does not intend to pay cash or equity bonuses during his employment, and he is not entitled to any such amounts under his employment agreement. Mr. Fischel’s employment agreement is an “at-will” agreement and does not provide for any salary continuation. While Mr. Fischel could realize substantial value from the 2021 CEO Performance Share Unit Award Plan, he will only do so if the Company and its shareholders benefit. Further, as the majority of Mr. Fischel’s compensation is non-cash based, the Company will be able to allocate its cash resources to further strategic initiatives that improve the underlying value of the Company.

Officers other than the CEO are also eligible for an annual cash incentive. The Compensation Committee has historically set targeted total compensation at the median of the competitive market. The Compensation Committee may adjust targeted total compensation, or the mix of total compensation based on other considerations such as business performance, company size and stock dilution. In addition, incentive programs are intended to be designed such that total compensation realized by executives is consistent with performance achievement. The objective of the Company’s long-term incentive program is to directly align compensation outcomes with returns received by shareholders, build equity ownership within the management team, and motivate the sustainable financial performance that supports stock price growth. Long-term incentive awards to the CEO are made pursuant to the Company’s 2021 CEO Performance Share Unit Award Plan. Long-term incentive awards to officers other than the CEO are made pursuant to the Company’s 2022 Stock Incentive Plan, which permits grants of cash awards, stock options, stock appreciation rights and stock awards. Throughout the year, the Compensation Committee may also approve awards in connection with employee promotions, employee retention, an individual newly hired to the Company, or for purposes otherwise deemed to be in the best interest of the Company. The timing of these equity award grants is not based on the timing of the release of material, non-public information, nor is such information released for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

The committee has the discretion to provide annual incentive awards to management, including the Named Executive Officers other than the CEO.

The typical pay review process occurs at the beginning of the fiscal year at which time the Compensation Committee reviews and approves executive compensation, including adjustments in base salaries, annual incentive awards and equity awards, and, if appropriate, establishes performance goals and target incentive opportunities for the annual incentive plan for the following fiscal year. During the review process, the Compensation Committee considers a number of factors, including competitive market data, input received from the Company’s management, an assessment of individual performance and the operating performance of the Company.

2025 Executive Compensation

Annual Base Salary. The Compensation Committee approved a base salary increase of approximately $6,000 for Ms. Peery, effective April 1, 2025. The Compensation Committee decided to make no changes to the annual base salary during 2025 for Mr. Fischel, which remained at $60,000 per year.

Annual Incentive Plan. The Compensation Committee decided not to establish a 2025 annual incentive plan based on objective, formulaic performance goals and metrics for the Company or the Named Executive Officers. Instead, the Compensation Committee determined that annual incentive awards to management, including the Named Executive Officers, for the 2025 fiscal year would be discretionary.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation. On April 8, 2025, the Compensation Committee, being duly authorized for such action by the Board, approved a grant of service-vested Incentive Stock Options, vesting 25% on the first anniversary and 2.083% per month thereafter through the fourth anniversary. The grant was intended to emphasize retention and the criticality of shareholder alignment during this key phase in the Company’s life cycle.

In February 2021, the Board, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee and subject to shareholder approval, approved a grant of performance based restricted stock units to Mr. Fischel, with vesting contingent on achievement of minimum service requirements and market-based milestones. Shareholders subsequently approved the award in May 2021. As of December 31, 2025, none of the performance milestones established by the 2021 CEO Incentive Program have been achieved and no awards have been earned. The full award document can be found in Exhibit 10.4 to our 2025 Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 12, 2026.

Clawback Policies

In 2023, our Board adopted the Stereotaxis Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy (the “Dodd-Frank Clawback Policy”) to comply with final rules required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the SEC, and the applicable NYSE American listing standards. The Dodd-Frank Clawback Policy provides for the mandatory recoupment of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation in the event of an accounting restatement. In such an event, the Company would seek to recover the amount of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation paid to applicable covered executives that was more than the amount that would have been awarded based on the restated financial results, subject to and in accordance with the terms of the policy and applicable law.

The Compensation Committee has also adopted, separate from and in addition to the Dodd-Frank Clawback Policy, a recoupment policy applicable to incentive compensation based on financial results, including the annual bonus and equity-based compensation, to our Named Executive Officers and other executives. If we are required to file a restatement of financial results due to fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct, then our independent directors may take action to recoup any portion of the incentive compensation awarded to the executives that exceeded the amount that would have been awarded based on the restated financial results during the three fiscal years prior to the filing of the restated financial results.

Other Benefits

	●	Healthcare and Other Insurance Programs: All our employees, including the Named Executive Officers, are eligible to participate in medical, dental, short and long-term disability and life insurance plans. The terms of such benefits for our Named Executive Officers are the same as those for all our employees.

	●	401(k): We offer all eligible employees the opportunity to participate in a 401(k) plan. Employer matching contributions are discretionary under the 401(k) plan. During 2025, the Company matched employee contributions up to 3% of the employee’s salary, subject to limitations. However, the employer match payment was not made until 2026.

	●	Employee Stock Purchase Plan: The Company offers an employee stock purchase plan, under which all of our employees, including our Named Executive Officers, who do not own 5% or more of our outstanding common stock, have the opportunity to buy shares of the Company’s common stock at 95% of market price with up to 15% of their salaries and incentives (subject to certain limits), with the objective of allowing employees to profit when the value of our stock increases over time.

Compensation Risk Assessment

The Compensation Committee has considered potential risks arising out of our compensation programs and does not believe our compensation programs encourage excessive or inappropriate risk taking by our employees. The Compensation Committee believes that our compensation packages, which are structured to balance fixed and variable compensation and include both annual and long-term incentives, mitigate unnecessary or excessive risk taking.

The following table summarizes the total compensation paid to the following Named Executive Officers for fiscal years 2024 and 2025. For more information about the components of the total compensation, refer to the “Executive Compensation Summary and Analysis” section of this proxy statement.

(2)	Cumulative total shareholder return (TSR) is calculated by dividing the sum of the cumulative amount of dividends for the measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and the difference between our company’s share price at the end and the beginning of the measurement period by our company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period. No dividends were paid on stock or option awards in any applicable period.

The equity awards granted to our PEO include performance-based stock units (PSU). The change in fair values of those PSUs included in the compensation actually paid to our PEO are calculated at the required measurement dates using a Black-Scholes model to approximate the change in fair value. Changes to the PSU fair value from the grant date are based on our updated stock price at the respective measurement dates, in addition to the remaining life of the grant, implied volatility of our stock over the remaining grant life, and risk-free rate assumptions. For all years presented, the meaningful increases or decreases in the year-end stock option fair value from the fair value on the grant date were primarily driven by changes in the stock price.

The equity awards to our Non-PEO NEOs include incentive stock options. The change in fair values of those options include in the compensation actually paid to our Non-PEO NEOs are calculated at the required measurement dates, consistent with the approach used to value the awards at the grant date as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Changes to the stock option fair values are based on the updated stock price at the respective measurement dates, in addition to updated expected option term, implied volatility of our stock over the updated expected option term, and risk-free rate assumptions. For all years presented, the meaningful increases or decreases in the year-end stock option fair value from the fair value on the grant date were primarily driven by changes in the stock price.

(2)	Cumulative total shareholder return (TSR) is calculated by dividing the sum of the cumulative amount of dividends for the measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and the difference between our company’s share price at the end and the beginning of the measurement period by our company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period. No dividends were paid on stock or option awards in any applicable period.

(3)	The dollar amounts reported represent the amount of net income (loss) reflected in our consolidated audited financial statements for the applicable year.

Analysis of the Information Presented in the Pay Versus Performance Table

We seek to incentivize long-term performance and therefore do not specifically align our performance measures with “compensation actually paid” (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K) for a particular year. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table.

Compensation Actually Paid and Net Income (Loss)

Between 2023 and 2025, our net loss increased; although the compensation paid for both our PEO and non-PEO NEOs increased to reflect contributions to, and performance on, Company initiatives.

Compensation Actually Paid and Cumulative TSR

As shown in the following graph, the compensation actually paid to Mr. Fischel and the average amount of compensation actually paid to our named executive officers as a group (excluding Mr. Fischel) during the periods presented are positively correlated to total shareholder return (TSR). We have not historically aligned executive compensation with TSR. Our stock incentive programs, which are an integral part of our executive compensation program, are tied to Company performance because they provide value only if the market price of our common stock increases and if the executive officer continues in our employment over the vesting period. These stock awards strongly align our executive officers’ interests with those of our stockholders by providing a continuing financial incentive to maximize long-term value for our stockholders and by encouraging our executive officers to continue in our employment for the long-term. Additionally, part of the compensation of our named executive officers other than our PEO consists of annual performance-based cash bonuses which are designed to provide appropriate incentives for our executives to achieve defined annual corporate goals and to reward our executives for individual achievement towards these goals. See the Executive Compensation section for a discussion of our compensation programs.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

The following table discloses information as of December 31, 2025, regarding securities to be issued upon the exercise of outstanding options, warrants, and rights under equity compensation plans.

Plan Category	Number of Securities to be Issued Upon Exercise of Outstanding Options, Warrants and Rights ⁽¹⁾		Weighted-Average Exercise Price of Outstanding Options, Warrants and Rights⁽²⁾		Number of Securities Remaining Available for Future Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans (Excluding Securities Reflected in Column (a)) ⁽³⁾
	(a)		(b)		(c)

Equity compensation plans approved by shareholders		6,751,014	$	3.49		17,127,899
Equity compensation plans not approved by shareholders		-		-		-
Total		6,751,014	$	3.49		17,127,899

	(1)	Includes 1,896,633 shares issuable pursuant to RSUs under our compensation program for non-employee directors, for which the service period has been completed but which will vest and become issuable in the future on the earliest to occur of (i) the fifth anniversary of the date of the award, (ii) the date on which the Board service of the director terminates, or (iii) a “change of control” of the Company, as defined in the award agreement. See “Director Compensation—Director Compensation Policy” above.

	(2)	Shares issuable upon vesting of restricted share units are not included in the weighted average computation.

	(3)	Includes 13,000,000 shares issuable pursuant to performance based RSUs under the 2021 CEO Performance Share Unit Award Plan which was approved by our shareholders at our May 20, 2021, annual meeting. As of December 31, 2025, no milestones have been achieved under the 2021 CEO Performance Share Unit Award Plan and accordingly no shares have been issued.

Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change of Control

The award agreements under our 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, 2022 Stock Incentive Plan, and the 2021 CEO Performance Share Unit Award Plan (collectively, the “Plans”) provide for the acceleration of certain equity awards in the event of termination of the employee’s employment due to a change of control of the Company. The provisions under the award agreements are applicable to awards granted to all participants in the Plan, including the Named Executive Officers. We have described those provisions below. Additionally, under certain stock incentive plans, in the event of a change of control of the Company, the Compensation Committee has the discretion to provide for termination of awards in exchange for cash payments or the issuance of substitute awards. Benefits or payments under other plans and arrangements that are available to the Company’s employees on similar terms are not described.

Provisions of awards under the Stock Incentive Plans

The awards do not typically accelerate in connection with the retirement, resignation, or other termination of employment (i.e., voluntary termination, termination for cause or involuntary termination) of any of the participants. In addition, none of the equity awards under our 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, or 2022 Stock Incentive Plan accelerate in the event of termination by death or disability. SARs and options could be exercised for specified periods following retirement, death, or disability.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth certain information known to us with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 16, 2026, by:

	●	each of our directors;
	●	each of our Named Executive Officers; and
	●	all our directors and executive officers as a group.

There were 97,477,538 shares of common stock and 21,008 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding as of March 16, 2026.

REPORT OF AUDIT COMMITTEE

Currently, three non-employee directors serve on the Audit Committee. Each is independent as defined by Section 803 of the NYSE American Company Guide and Rule 10-A-3(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Board has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, which is posted on our website at www.stereotaxis.com, Investors, Governance.

The Audit Committee assists the Board in providing oversight of our accounting and financial reporting process. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including our systems of internal control. Ernst & Young, LLP (“EY”), the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2025 is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and expressing an opinion on the conformity of the Company’s audited financial statements with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, the Company engages another accounting firm for assistance with internal audit services and their analysis is provided to the Audit Committee.

The Audit Committee reviews with management the Company’s major financial risk exposures, and the steps management has taken to monitor, mitigate, and control such exposures. Management has the responsibility for the implementation of these activities. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements to be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, with management, including a discussion of the quality and the acceptability of the Company’s financial reporting practices and the internal controls over financial reporting.

The Audit Committee also discussed with the Company’s internal audit service provider and EY in advance the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. The Audit Committee meets regularly with the internal audit service provider and EY, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, their evaluations of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting. The Audit Committee discussed with EY the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC and has received and discussed with EY the written disclosures and letter from EY required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with EY its independence from the Company and management.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, for filing with the SEC. Submitted by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors:

Ross Levin, Chair

David W. Benfer

Nachum Shamir

The report of the Audit Committee will not be deemed incorporated by reference by any general statement incorporating by reference this proxy statement or portions thereof into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent that we specifically incorporate by reference the Audit Committee report and will not otherwise be deemed filed under such Acts.

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Under the Company’s bylaws, the number of directors of the Company may be fixed or changed from time to time by resolution of a majority of the Board of Directors, provided the number shall be no less than three and no more than fifteen. Currently, the Board has set the number of directors of the Company at nine. The directors are divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III, each class to be as equal in number as possible. The directors in each class are elected for a term of three years. Currently, there is one vacancy in Class II and one vacancy in Class III.

Shareholders are being asked to elect three (3) directors, Mr. David Benfer, Dr. Arun Menawat and Dr. Myriam Curet, as Class I directors, to serve until the 2029 Annual Meeting and until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified.

The Board does not contemplate that the nominees will be unable to stand for election, but should the nominees become unable to serve or for good cause will not serve, all proxies (except proxies marked to the contrary) will be voted for the election of any substitute nominee recommended by our Board.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF THE NAMED NOMINEES AS DIRECTORS.

PROPOSAL 2: RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Our Audit Committee, pursuant to its charter, has appointed Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants to examine the financial statements of the Company for our 2026 fiscal year. A representative of Ernst & Young LLP is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and to be available to respond to appropriate questions from stockholders.

While the Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, termination and oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm, the Audit Committee and our Board are requesting, as a matter of policy, that the shareholders ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for 2026. The outcome of this vote does not require the Audit Committee to take any action. However, if the shareholders do not ratify the appointment, the Audit Committee may investigate the reasons for shareholder rejection and may consider whether to retain Ernst & Young LLP or to appoint another firm. Furthermore, even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if the Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be required to ratify the selection of Ernst & Young LLP.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP AS THE COMPANY’S INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026.

PROPOSAL 3: TO APPROVE, BY NON-BINDNG VOTE, EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Our Board of Directors believes that long-term incentive compensation programs align the interests of management, employees, and the shareholders to create long-term shareholder value. The Board believes that these programs increase our ability to achieve this objective by allowing for several different forms of long-term incentive awards, which the Board believes will help us recruit, reward, motivate and retain talented personnel.

Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, our Board of Directors is again submitting a non-binding shareholder vote on our executive compensation as described in this proxy statement (commonly referred to as “say-on-pay”). This vote is currently conducted every three years, and if approved by shareholders, the next vote will be in 2029.

While this vote is advisory and not binding on our Company, it will provide information to our Compensation Committee regarding shareholders’ sentiment about our executive compensation philosophy and practices, which the committee will be able to consider when determining executive compensation in the future.

As you consider how to cast your vote, we encourage you to review the “Executive Compensation Summary and Analysis” section of this proxy statement as well as the executive compensation tables and related narratives. As described in those sections, the primary goals of our executive compensation program are to attract, retain and motivate highly qualified executives and to align their interests with those of our shareholders. Our program, consisting of a mix of base salary, annual cash bonus, and equity awards, is designed to reflect a balance between short-term and long-term goals to create value for our shareholders.

Approval of this proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal. Because brokers are not permitted to vote on this proposal in the absence of voting instructions from beneficial owners, broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of this proposal. Abstentions will have the effect of negative votes.

Because this vote is advisory, it will not be binding on the Company, the Board of Directors, or the Compensation Committee. However, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of our shareholders and will consider the outcome of the vote in making future executive compensation decisions.

RESOLVED, that the shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s Named Executive Officers as described in this proxy statement under “Executive Compensation”, including the “Executive Compensation Summary and Analysis” and the tabular and narrative disclosure contained in this proxy statement.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY’S EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

All Other Fees		-		-
Total Ernst & Young LLP Fees	$	563,485	$	537,000

Pre-Approval Policy

As described in the Audit Committee charter, it is the Audit Committee’s policy and procedure to review, consider, and pre-approve, where appropriate, all audit and non-audit engagement services to be performed by our independent registered public accountants. All the audit services provided by Ernst & Young LLP during fiscal year 2025 were pre-approved in accordance with the Audit Committee’s policy.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We review all relationships and transactions in which the Company and our directors, executive officers or their immediate family members participate to determine whether such persons have a direct or indirect material interest in such transactions or relationships. In addition, our Code of Conduct prohibits our officers, directors, and employees from engaging in activities that involve, or even appear to involve, a conflict between their personal interest and the interests of the Company. Our Code of Conduct encourages our employees to report to us an actual or apparent conflict of interest.

Our Board of Directors or the Audit Committee, in either case, with any directors involved in the relevant transaction recusing themselves from the discussion and decision, reviews all related party transactions involving the Company and any of the Company’s principal shareholders or members of our Board of Directors or senior management or any immediate family member of any of the foregoing. A general statement of this policy is set forth in our Audit Committee charter, which is published on our website at www.stereotaxis.com, Investors, Governance. However, the Board does not have detailed written policies and procedures for reviewing related party transactions. Rather, all facts and circumstances surrounding each related party transaction may be considered.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16 REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires all Company executive officers, directors and persons owning more than 10% of any registered class of our capital stock to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Based solely on the reports received by us and on written representations from our directors and executive officers, we believe that all such persons timely filed such reports during the last fiscal year.

GENERAL INFORMATION

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

Proposals Included in Proxy Statement

If a shareholder intends to present a proposal at the Company’s 2027 Annual Meeting and that shareholder desires to have such proposal included in the Company’s proxy materials relating to the Company’s 2027 Annual Meeting, then notice must be received by the Company at its principal executive offices no later than December 4 2026, which is 120 calendar days prior to April 3, 2027, the anniversary of the release date of this proxy statement relating to the 2026 Annual Meeting. Upon timely receipt of any such proposal, the Company will determine whether to include such proposal in the proxy statement and proxy in accordance with applicable regulations governing the solicitation of proxies.

Proposals Not Included in the Proxy Statement

Our bylaws provide that any shareholder seeking to bring business before an annual meeting of shareholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of shareholders, must provide timely notice in writing. To be timely, a shareholder’s notice must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, our principal executive offices not more than 120 days nor less than 90 days prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of shareholders, i.e., not earlier than January 14, 2027, and not later than February 13, 2027, for the Company’s 2027 Annual Meeting. However, if the annual meeting is called for a date that is not within 30 days before or after such anniversary date, then to be timely, the notice by the shareholder must be received not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the day that the notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed to shareholders or made public, whichever first occurs. Our restated bylaws specify requirements as to the form and content of a shareholder’s notice. These provisions may preclude shareholders from bringing matters before an annual meeting of shareholders or from making nominations for directors at an annual meeting of shareholders.

Any shareholder wishing to submit a candidate for election to our Board of Directors should follow the procedures outlined in “Director Nomination Process.” For all other proposals, as to each matter of business proposed, the shareholder should send the following information to the Corporate Secretary, Stereotaxis, Inc., 710 North Tucker Boulevard, Suite 110, St. Louis, Missouri 63101:

	●	A brief description of the business desired to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for conducting such business;
	●	The text of the business (including the text of any resolutions proposed and the language of any proposed amendment to our charter documents);
	●	The name and address, as they appear in our shareholder records, of the shareholder(s) proposing such business;
	●	The class and number of shares of the stock which are beneficially owned by the proposing shareholder(s);
	●	Any material interest of the proposing shareholder(s) in such business; and
	●	A statement as to whether either the proposing shareholder(s) intend(s) to deliver a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of, in the case of the proposal, at least the percentage of the Company’s voting shares required under applicable law to carry the proposal.

A more complete description of this process is set forth in our bylaws.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXIES

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries such as brokers to satisfy delivery requirements for annual reports, proxy statements and Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single annual report and/or proxy statement and/or Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials addressed to those shareholders. This process is commonly referred to as “householding.” The Company and some brokers household annual reports, proxy materials, and Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, delivering a single annual report and/or proxy statement and/or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected shareholders.

Once you have received notice from your broker or the Company that your broker or we will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you request otherwise.

OTHER INFORMATION

Other than the matters referenced in this proxy statement, the Board knows of no additional matter that will be presented at the meeting. However, if any other matters, including a shareholder proposal excluded from this proxy statement and pursuant to the rules of the SEC, properly come before the meeting or any of its adjournments, the person or persons voting the proxies will vote in accordance with their best judgment on such matters. Should any nominee for director be unable to serve or for good cause will not serve at the time of the meeting or any adjournments thereof, the persons named in the proxy will vote for the election of such other person for such directorship as the Board may recommend, unless, prior to the meeting, the Board has eliminated that directorship by reducing the size of the Board. The Board is not aware that any nominee herein will be unable to serve or for good cause will not serve as a director.

The Company will bear the expense of preparing, printing, and mailing this proxy material, as well as the cost of any required solicitation. Directors, officers, or employees of the Company may solicit proxies on behalf of the Company. In addition, the Company will reimburse banks, brokerage firms and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable expenses incurred in forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners of the Company’s stock and obtaining their proxies.

You are urged to vote promptly. You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted; and if you attend the meeting, as we hope you will, you may vote your shares in person, if you held your shares directly as a registered holder. In addition, we will furnish, without charge, copies of exhibits to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the Commission, upon the written request of any person who is a shareholder as of the Record Date, upon payment of a reasonable fee which will not exceed our reasonable expenses in connection therewith. Requests for such materials should be directed to Stereotaxis, Inc., 710 North Tucker Boulevard, Suite 110, St. Louis, Missouri 63101, Attention: Corporate Secretary.
