Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate
In May 2020, the Company, Zhejiang Youchuang Venture Capital Investment Co., Ltd and another partner (collectively, the “JV Partners”) received notice from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) in connection with its review of the Company’s and the JV Partners’ investment in Exoskeleton Intelligent Robotics Co. Limited (the “China JV”). The notice stated that CFIUS’s prior national security concerns regarding the China JV could not be mitigated. In connection with such determination, on July 13, 2020, the Company and the JV Partners entered into a National Security Agreement (“NSA”), which, among other things, requires the termination of the Company’s agreements and role with the China JV. The Company intends to work cooperatively with the JV Partners and CFIUS to implement the terms of the NSA. On August 12, 2020, the Company and the JV Partners agreed to terminate the agreements underlying the China JV. As of December 31, 2020, all agreements related to the China JV had been terminated.

In accordance with the above, during the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a $66 loss on investment in unconsolidated affiliate in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss related to the write-off of previously recorded direct costs related to establishing the China JV.
