We receive professional services and have credit available from K.S. Best International Co. Ltd., a company controlled by the brother of our Chief Executive Officer.  We made payments to K.S.

We purchase electronic component products from Princeton Technology Corporation (“PTC”), a company controlled by Mr. Richard Chiang, one of the directors on our board.  During the years ending December 31, 2013 and 2012, we purchased products in the amount of $35,000 and $6,000, respectively, from PTC.  All of these purchases were for products we carry in inventory and we consider these purchases to be in the normal course of business and negotiated on an arm’s length basis.  We have also entered into a distributor agreement with PTC, and accordingly, we expect to continue purchasing from PTC in the future.
