Pivotal Legal Case Settlement Includes Ekso Bionics Ekso GT(TM) Robotic Exoskeleton

Paralyzed Gunshot Victim is First Recipient of a Fully Remunerated Ekso GT Suit for Home Rehabilitation in the UK

CANARY WHARF, LONDON, March 31, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (OTCQB:EKSO), a robotic exoskeleton company, announced that Dale Messenger, who was left paralyzed with an L1 incomplete spinal cord injury after suffering a gunshot wound, settled a long running case at the High Court in the United Kingdom. His damages settlement includes, among other items, the purchase cost of an Ekso Bionics Ekso GT robotic exoskeleton, its replacement over the years, and related utilization costs.

"During my case, many subjects were discussed and items of equipment reviewed including other, similar exoskeletons. One such item was the Ekso and it proved to be more valuable than I could imagine, and in a league of its own," said Dale. "The benefit I experience from the Ekso ranges from pain relief, improvements to my bladder/bowel function and more recently an increase in my motor function and sensation."

Ben Rogers, Partner at Stewarts Law LLP, the UK's largest litigation only law firm that specializes in high value and complex disputes added: "So far as we are aware, this is the first time that damages have been recovered in England & Wales to reimburse for the cost of a home rehabilitation device and a trained physiotherapist to operate it. The settlement reflects both the ability in principle to recover damages for the Ekso Bionics robotic exoskeleton and of course the need for specialized medical and legal experts to assist with processing these claims."

Nathan Harding, Ekso Bionics chief executive officer adds, "This is a major step for individuals who are looking to improve their rehabilitation options from their home. We believe the data our partners are collecting at Europe's top rehabilitation centers will begin to show that the Ekso Bionics Ekso GT^TM robotic exoskeleton may be effective in many of the ways Dale has experienced, including aiding recovery and potentially reducing secondary complications. Now that we are seeing patients get access to our technology thru legal settlements for home rehabilitation, we are eager to see how this improved access might impact overall patient outcomes."

Ekso Bionics' lead product, the Ekso GT^TM robotic exoskeleton, is a wearable bionics suit that enables individuals with any amount of lower extremity weakness to stand up and walk over ground. Ekso Bionics is forging a new frontier in rehabilitation for people living with the consequences of stroke, spinal cord injury, and other neurological conditions affecting gait.
