10. NONCONTROLLING INTEREST

On January 17, 2013, 4LC Technology and certain other investors entered into an operating agreement of Pinwrest, with 4LC Technology owning 70% of Pinwrest’s membership interests and the minority members owning 30% of Pinwrest’s membership interests.  Pinwrest is treated as a consolidated subsidiary of the Company as a result of its majority ownership.
 
Noncontrolling interest of membership units in Pinwrest represents the minority members’ proportionate share of the equity in the entity. Income is allocated to the membership units’ minority interest based on the ownership percentage throughout the year.  The following table summarizes the noncontrolling interest’s loss attributable to the noncontrolling equity interest in Pinwrest:
