Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions (see General Instruction A.2. below):

On June 10, 2015, the compensation committee (the “Compensation Committee”) of the Board of Directors of Ekso Bionics Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) approved a 2015 short term incentive plan (the “Plan”), which is designed to provide cash bonus awards to the Company’s executive officers based on the achievement of goals related to corporate performance in 2015.

The amount of the cash bonus that any executive officer is eligible to receive is based on a predetermined target percent of base salary. For Nathan Harding, our Chief Executive Officer, the annual cash incentive award target level is 60% of his annual base salary for 2015. For each of Max Scheder-Bieschin, our Chief Financial Officer, and Thomas Looby, our President and Chief Commercial Officer, the annual cash incentive award target level is 40% of his annual base salary for 2015. For Russ Angold, President of Ekso Labs, the annual cash incentive award target level is 30% of his annual base salary.

Payment of cash bonuses under the Plan is based upon achievement of the corporate goals described below, which are weighted from 0-100% in relative allocation. In determining whether the Company’s corporate goals have been achieved, the Compensation Committee may consider any factors and achievements it considers appropriate.

The following is a description of the 2015 corporate goals:

For each of Messrs. Harding, Scheder-Bieschin and Looby, the financial goals and strategic goals each represent 30% of the potential 2015 cash bonus award, and the tactical goals represent 40% of the potential 2015 cash bonus award. For Mr. Angold, the financial goals, represent 79% of the potential 2015 cash bonus award, the strategic goals represent 9% of the potential 2015 cash bonus award, and the tactical goals represent 12% of the potential 2015 cash bonus award.

Following completion of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015, the Compensation Committee will evaluate the performance of the Company and each executive officer against the 2015 corporate goals and will determine the annual cash incentive awards, if any, to be granted to the executive officers. The Compensation Committee has the authority to make discretionary adjustments to the annual cash incentive program, including the ability to make additional awards based on the Company’s executive officers’ performance and to modify the corporate and individual performance targets and to increase or decrease the level of awards that the Company’s executive officers receive in conjunction with their performance against the targets and also based upon the Company’s cash resources as of December 31, 2015.

On June 11, 2015, the Compensation Committee approved the grant of options to purchase 500,000 shares, 313,000 shares, 600,000 shares and 700,000 shares to Messrs. Harding, Scheder-Bieschin, Looby, and Angold, respectively. The options granted to Messrs. Harding, Scheder-Bieschin and Looby become exercisable over a four-year period, with ¼ of the shares becoming exercisable on the first anniversary of the date of grant and with 1/48 of the shares becoming exercisable at the end of each month thereafter, provided that the executive officer is employed by the Company or any of its subsidiaries on each vesting date. Due to the fact that industrial exoskeletons are an emerging business for Ekso Bionics, the options granted to Mr. Angold become exercisable based upon growth in the Company’s industrial business. Specifically, Mr. Angold’s option becomes exercisable in three tranches, with each tranche vesting only upon achievement of certain confidential revenue targets on or before certain specified dates between March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2017. All of the options expire ten years following the date of grant. The options awarded to the executive officers are subject to certain acceleration of vesting upon a separation from service and upon a change of control (each as further described in the employment agreement between the Company and the applicable executive officer).

The following provides a summary of votes cast for the proposals on which the stockholders of the Company voted at the annual meeting of stockholders held on June 10, 2015 (the “Annual Meeting”):

Proposal 1. The election of seven directors to serve until the next annual meeting of stockholders and the election of their successors.

Proposal 2. The approval and ratification of the Amended and Restated 2014 Equity Incentive Plan.

Proposal 3. The ratification of the appointment of OUM & Co., LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015.
