$EKSO Centers of Robotic Excellence Collab. w/ Rehabilitation Facilities for Mobility Impaired

RICHMOND, Calif., June 15, 2017 — Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:EKSO), an industry leader in exoskeleton technology for medical and industrial use, today announced a collaboration with four leading rehabilitation facilities to establish Centers of Robotic Excellence to help further advance the use of innovative exoskeleton technology for mobility impaired patients.

As early adopters of state-of-the-art exoskeleton technology, the centers have committed to provide peer-to-peer support as reference sites to train other facilities interested in becoming proficient in innovative approaches to rehabilitation.

The centers include:

• Barrow Neurological Institute, Phoenix, Arizona
• Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Network, Allentown, Pennsylvania
• Marianjoy Rehabilitation Hospital, part of Northwestern Medicine, Wheaton, Illinois
• “Villa Beretta” Centro di Riabilitazione, Costa Masnaga (LC), Italy (Northeast of Milan)

“Collaborating with leaders in the rehabilitation community is key to building clinical support on the benefits of exoskeletons to aid early mobility for stroke & spinal cord injury,” said Thomas Looby, president and chief executive officer of Ekso Bionics. “We are proud to work with these visionaries who are dedicated to helping patients with recovery and to provide quantifiable insights into the strides they’re making walking with an exoskeleton.”

Christina Kwasnica, M.D., medical director for the Barrow Neuro Rehabilitation Center, notes, “The robotic device allows us to get patients up on their feet earlier. The gains we see are overwhelming and the positive effects on a patient’s mood and motivation is unbelievable.”

Each center will also work with Ekso Bionics to aid in research and development efforts. The Centers of Excellence will gather clinical evidence and measurable results on rehabilitation with EksoGT^TM and create research protocols for proving standard of care for exoskeletons for rehabilitation.

“As an early adopter of the EksoGT, we look forward to mentoring our peers and sharing our knowledge so that more patients can benefit from this life-changing technology,” said Frank Hyland, M.S., P.T., executive director of Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Network and administrator of Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Hospital. “Good Shepherd has experienced the economic advantage firsthand with a significant return on investment, increased market share growth, and a value proposition that also benefits patients and payers. EksoGT is now the cornerstone of our rehabilitation program and has helped our patients take 3 million steps and counting.”
