Manufacturing Agreement

 

In July 2010, the Company entered into a three-year contract manufacturing agreement with an unrelated third party for the production and manufacture of the Company’s main product in accordance with the Company’s product specifications. The agreement renews for successive years unless either party notifies the other party in writing, at least 60 days prior to the anniversary date of this agreement that it will not renew the agreement. The Company or the manufacturer has the option to terminate the agreement with 90 days written notice. Any change in the relationship with the manufacturer could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business.

Legal contingencies

 

The Company is party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. The Company assesses, in conjunction with its legal counsel, the need to record a liability for litigation and related contingencies. The Company does not believe that any legal proceedings are likely to have a material effect on the business, financial condition, or results of operations.
