ReWalk Robotics, Marlborough, Massachusetts, and Yokneam Ilit, Israel, announced that it has entered into a strategic investment agreement with Timwell Corporation, Hong Kong. ReWalk will receive $20 million in exchange for an aggregate of 16,000,000 of ReWalk ordinary shares, at a price per share of $1.25, to fund ReWalk’s development worldwide and to establish its presence in the Chinese market.
