20. Related Party and Other Transactions

During the normal course of business, the Company purchases certain equipment from vendors who are also its customers and with whom the Company has contractual arrangements. The equipment purchased by the Company is primarily used for testing purposes in its development labs or otherwise consumed internally. The Company believes that all such transactions are on an arms-length basis and are subject to terms no more favorable than those with unrelated parties.
