Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2016

(unaudited)

NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and these condensed notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results are likely to differ from those estimates, but management does not believe such differences will materially affect the financial position or results of operations of InfoSonics Corporation (the “Company”), although they may. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and condensed notes should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for such year.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements include assets, liabilities and operating results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

In the opinion of management, these unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary to fairly present the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows as of March 31, 2016 and for all periods presented. The results reported in these consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results, financial condition or cash flows that may be expected for the full fiscal year of 2016 or for any future period.

NOTE 2. Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has two stock-based compensation plans: the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (“2006 Plan”) and the 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“2015 Plan”), both of which were approved by our stockholders. As of March 31, 2016, options to purchase 942,000 and 315,000 shares were outstanding under the 2006 Plan and the 2015 Plan, respectively, and a total of 899,000 shares were available for grant under the 2015 Plan. No options are available for grant under the 2006 Plan.

The Company’s stock options vest on an annual or a monthly basis. Stock options generally are exercisable for up to seven years after grant, subject to continued employment or service. The Company recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period of the award, which is generally the option vesting term. Such amount may change as a result of additional grants, forfeitures, modifications in assumptions and other factors. Income tax effects of share-based payments are recognized in the financial statements for those awards which will normally result in tax deductions under existing tax law. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, we recorded an expense of $77,000 and $51,000, respectively, related to options previously granted. Under current U.S. federal tax law, we receive a compensation expense deduction related to non-qualified stock options only when those options are exercised and vested shares are received. Accordingly, the financial statement recognition of compensation expense for non-qualified stock options creates a deductible temporary difference that results in a deferred tax asset and a corresponding deferred tax benefit in our consolidated statements of operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company did not grant any stock options. As of March 31, 2016, there was $341,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock options. That expense is expected to be recognized over the remaining weighted-average period of 1.51 years.

A summary of option activity under both the 2006 Plan and the 2015 Plan as of March 31, 2016 and changes during the three months then ended is presented in the table below (shares in thousands):


	Shares		Wtd. Avg. Exercise Price		Wtd. Avg. Remaining Contractual Life in Years
Outstanding at December 31, 2015		1,257	$	1.04		4.51
Granted		—	$	—
Exercised		—	$	—
Forfeited		—	$	—

Outstanding at March 31, 2016		1,257	$	1.04		4.26

Vested and expected to vest		1,190	$	1.01		4.17
Exercisable at March 31, 2016		876	$	0.82		3.37

A summary of the status of the Company’s non-vested options at March 31, 2016 and changes during the three months then ended is presented below (shares in thousands):


	Shares			Weighted-average grant-date fair value
Non-vested at December 31, 2015		450		$	1.16
Granted		—		$	—
Vested		(69	)	$	1.07
Forfeited		—		$	—

Non-vested at March 31, 2016		381		$	1.17

The Company’s share-based compensation is classified in the same expense line item as cash compensation. Information about share-based compensation included in the unaudited results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 is as follows (in thousands):


	For the Three Months Ended March 31,
	2016		2015
Officer compensation	$	33	$	23
Non-employee directors		16		11
Sales, general and administrative		28		17

Total share-based compensation expense	$	77	$	51

NOTE 3. Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share are computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed similarly to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential additional common shares that were dilutive had been issued. Common share equivalents are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive. The Company’s common share equivalents consist of stock options.

Common shares from the potential exercise of certain options are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share if their exercise prices are greater than the Company’s average stock price for the period. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the number of such shares excluded was 315,000. For the three months ended March 31, 2015, no such shares were excluded. In addition, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive, common shares from exercise of 942,000 in-the-money options for the three months ended March 31, 2016 have been excluded from the computation of net loss per share.

NOTE 4. Income Taxes

The Company made a comprehensive review of its portfolio of uncertain tax positions in accordance with applicable standards of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). In this regard, an uncertain tax position represents the Company’s expected treatment of a tax position taken in a filed tax return, or planned to be taken in a future tax return, that has not been reflected in measuring income tax expense for financial reporting purposes. As a result of this review, the Company concluded that at this time there are no uncertain tax positions, and there has been no cumulative effect on retained earnings.

The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in multiple states and foreign jurisdictions. For all major taxing jurisdictions, the tax years 2004 through 2015 remain open to examination or re-examination. As of March 31, 2016, the Company does not expect any material changes to unrecognized tax positions within the next twelve months.

The Company recognizes the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns. Fluctuations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact the Company’s financial position or results of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, deferred income tax assets and the corresponding valuation allowance increased by $92,000.

NOTE 5. Inventory

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market and consists primarily of cellular phones and cellular phone accessories. The Company records a reserve against inventories to account for obsolescence and possible price concessions required to liquidate inventories below cost. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the inventory reserve balance was increased by $57,000. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the inventory reserve was $333,000 and $276,000, respectively. From time to time, the Company has prepaid inventory as a result of payments for products which have not been received by the balance sheet date. As of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the prepaid inventory balances were $1,196,000 and $1,232,000, respectively, which are included in prepaid assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Inventory consists of the following (in thousands):


	March 31, 2016 (unaudited)			December 31, 2015 (audited)
Finished goods	$	7,263		$	6,913
Inventory reserve		(333	)		(276	)

Net inventory	$	6,930		$	6,637

Total	$	2,154	$	2,343

NOTE 8. Line of Credit

On March 27, 2014, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement and an attendant Intellectual Property Security Agreement (collectively the “Agreement”) with Silicon Valley Bank (“SVB”), pursuant to which the Company could borrow up to $2 million based upon both its domestic and foreign eligible accounts receivable multiplied by an advance rate of 80% and 70%, respectively, with eligibility determined in accordance with the Agreement (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest based on the face amount of the financed receivables at the prime rate plus 4.5% for domestic receivables and 3.53% for foreign receivables. On August 4, 2015, the Credit Facility, which contains representations and warranties, affirmative, restrictive and financial covenants, and events of default which are customary for credit facilities of this type, was amended to increase the availability of borrowings under the Credit Facility to $7 million. At March 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all covenants, no amounts were drawn against the Credit Facility and $7 million was available for borrowing under the credit line. The maturity date of the Credit Facility is September 27, 2017.

NOTE 9. Foreign Exchange Hedging Facility

On January 14, 2016, the Company entered into an Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Foreign Securities (the “FS Agreement”) with SVB. Under the FS Agreement, the Company and SVB can enter into foreign currency spot contracts, forward contracts, forward window contracts and options to manage the Company’s foreign currency risk. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company entered into forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges to protect against the foreign currency exchange rate risk of the Mexican Peso inherent in its forecasted net sales and cash collections from customers in Mexico. The hedges mature on a monthly basis through June 30, 2016. Changes in the fair value of the hedges are initially recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss as a separate component of stockholders’ equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and subsequently reclassified into earnings as other income (loss) on the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the period in which the hedge matures. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company recorded a loss of $169,000 on forward contracts that matured during the period. At March 31, 2016, the fair value obligation of outstanding forward contracts of $263,000 was included in accrued expenses with the related loss amount remaining in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

NOTE 10. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Issued (Not adopted yet):

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in “Revenue Recognition (Topic 605).” This update provides a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. Additionally, this guidance expands related disclosure requirements. ASU 2014-09 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017 and early application is not permitted. This update permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements as well as the expected adoption method.

In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-15, “Presentation of Financial Statements Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40) -Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern.” This ASU requires management to assess an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern by incorporating and expanding upon certain principles that are currently in U.S. auditing standards. Specifically, the ASU (1) provides a definition of the term substantial doubt, (2) requires an evaluation every reporting period, including interim periods, (3) provides principles for considering the mitigating effect of management’s plans, (4) requires certain disclosures when substantial doubt is alleviated as a result of consideration of management’s plans, (5) requires an express statement and other disclosures when substantial doubt is not alleviated, and (6) requires an assessment for a period of one year after the date that the financial statements are issued (or available to be issued). This standard is effective for the fiscal years ending after December 15, 2016, and for annual periods and interim periods thereafter. Early application is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which revises the accounting related to lessee accounting. Under the new guidance, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability and a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset for all leases. For finance leases the lessee would recognize interest expense and amortization of the ROU asset and for operating leases the lessee would recognize a straight-line total lease expense. The new lease guidance also simplified the accounting for sale and leaseback transactions primarily because lessees must recognize lease assets and lease liabilities. ASU 2016-02 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2018 and early adoption is permitted. This update should be applied through a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-05, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815),” which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative instrument that has been designed as a hedging instrument under Topic 815 does not, in and of itself, require dedesignation of that hedging relationship provided that all other hedge accounting criteria continue to be met. ASU 2016-05 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. This update should be applied either on a prospective basis or through a modified retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 718),” which simplifies several aspects of the accounting for share-based payments, including immediate recognition of all excess tax benefits and deficiencies in the income statement, changing the threshold to qualify for equity classification up to the employees’ maximum statutory tax rates, allowing an entity-wide accounting policy election to either estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or account for forfeitures as they occur, and clarifying the classification on the statement of cash flows for the excess tax benefit and employee taxes paid when an employer withholds shares for tax-withholding purposes. ASU 2016-09 is effective for annual and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2016 and early adoption is permitted. This update should be applied through the following methods: 1) a modified retrospective transition approach as related to the timing of when tax benefits are recognized, minimum statutory withholding requirements, forfeitures, and intrinsic value, 2) retrospectively as related to the presentation of employee taxes paid on the statement of cash flows when an employer withholds hares to meet the minimum statutory withholding requirement, 3) prospectively as related to the recognition of excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies in the income statement and the practical expedient for estimating expected term and 4) either prospective transition method or a retrospective transition method as related to the presentation of excess tax benefits on the statement of cash flows. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606),” which provided clarification for the identification of performance obligations and licensing but did not change the core principle of the guidance. ASU 2016-10 is effective in conjunction with ASU 2014-09 for annual and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2017. This update permits the use of either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact it will have on its consolidated financial statements.

Other accounting standards updates effective after March 31, 2016 are not expected to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Blue Spike Litigation

On October 8, 2013, Blue Spike, LLC (“Blue Spike”) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, alleging that certain of our products infringe claims of U.S. Patent No. 5,745,569. Blue Spike is seeking recovery of unspecified monetary damages. On February 10, 2014 we filed an answer with the Court stating that we do not infringe and setting forth multiple defenses. A scheduling conference was held on July 31, 2015 and a Markman Hearing was held on February 10, 2016. Trial is scheduled for January 23, 2017. On November 19, 2015, Blue Spike filed an additional patent infringement lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, alleging that certain of our products infringe claims of U.S. Patent No. 8,930,719. The Company was served with this lawsuit on February 12, 2016, and it is expected that the two lawsuits will be consolidated into one by the Court. We do not believe we infringe the Blue Spike patents and intend to defend ourselves vigorously. Due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, we cannot identify probable or estimable damages related to these lawsuits at this time.

Morpho Komodo Litigation

On June 19, 2015, Morpho Komodo LLC (“Morpho Komodo”) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against the Company in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, alleging that certain of our products infringe claims of U.S. Patents No. 7,350,078, No. 7,725,725 and No. 8,429,415. Morpho Komodo is seeking injunctive relief as well as the recovery of unspecified monetary damages. We do not believe we infringe any valid claim of the Morpho Komodo patents and intend to defend ourselves vigorously. On July 21, 2015, we filed an answer with the Court stating that we do not infringe and setting forth multiple defenses, including invalidity of the asserted patents. Due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, we cannot identify probable or estimable damages related to the lawsuit at this time.

The Company may become involved in certain other legal proceedings and claims which arise in the normal course of business. Other than as described above, as of the filing date of this report, the Company did not have any significant litigation outstanding.

NOTE 13. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The FASB accounting guidance requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Fair value as defined by the guidance is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The fair value estimates of financial instruments are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we might pay or receive in actual market transactions. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. Effective April 1, 2008 the Company adopted and follows ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), which established a fair value hierarchy that requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instruments categorization within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and forward contracts used to hedge foreign currency risk are measured at fair value in the Company’s consolidated financial statements and are valued using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 inputs under ASC 820). The carrying amount of our accounts receivable, other accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, accounts payable and other accrued expenses reported in the consolidated balance sheets approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we did not have any material applicable nonrecurring measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-Looking Statements, Safe Harbor Statement and Other General Information

This discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and condensed notes thereto and other information included in this report and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 (including our 2015 audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto and other information). Our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon, among other things, our unaudited consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to, among other things, make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosures of contingent liabilities as of the date of our most recent balance sheet, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We review our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on our historical experience and other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results are likely to differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions, but we do not believe such differences will materially affect our financial position or results of operations, although they may. Our critical accounting policies, the policies we believe are most important to the presentation of our financial statements and require the most difficult, subjective and complex judgments are outlined in “Critical Accounting Policies” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as may be updated in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. All references to results of operations in this discussion generally are to results from continuing operations, unless otherwise noted.

This report contains “forward-looking statements,” including, without limitation, statements about customer relationships, marketing of our verykool ^® products, sales levels, cost reductions, operating efficiencies, currency-related matters, profitability and adequacy of working capital, that are based on, among other things, current management knowledge and expectations and which involve certain risks and uncertainties. These risks and uncertainties, in whole or in part, could cause expectations to fail to be achieved and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, and include, without limitation: (1) intense competition internationally, including competition from alternative business models, such as manufacturer-to-carrier sales, which may lead to reduced prices, lower sales, lower gross margins, extended payment terms with customers, increased capital investment and interest costs, bad debt risks and product supply shortages; (2) our ability to source new verykool ^® handsets and successfully introduce them into new markets; (3) our ability to have access to adequate capital to fund operations; (4) our ability to secure adequate supply of competitive products on a timely basis and on commercially reasonable terms; (5) foreign exchange rate fluctuations and/or devaluation of a foreign currency (most notably the Mexican peso) and our ability to effectively hedge for such fluctuations or devaluations, adverse governmental controls or actions, political or economic instability, or disruption of a foreign market, including, without limitation, the imposition, creation, increase or modification of tariffs, taxes, duties, levies and other charges and other related risks of our international operations which could significantly increase selling prices of our products to our customers and end-users and decrease profitability; (6) the ability to attract new sources of profitable business from expansion of products or services or risks associated with entry into new markets or expanding in existing markets, including geographies, products, services and big box retailers; (7) an interruption or failure of our information systems or subversion of access or other system controls, including private information, may result in a significant loss of business, assets, or competitive information; (8) significant changes in supplier terms and relationships or shortages in product supply; (9) loss of business from one or more significant customers; (10) customer and geographical accounts receivable concentration risk and other related risks; (11) rapid product improvement and technological change resulting in inventory obsolescence; (12) extended general economic downturn in world markets; (13) uncertain political and economic conditions internationally, including terrorist or military actions; (14) the loss of a key executive officer or other key employees and the integration of new employees; (15) changes in consumer demand for multimedia wireless handset products and features; (16) our failure to adequately adapt to industry changes and to manage potential growth and/or contractions; (17) seasonal buying patterns; (18) the resolution of any litigation for or against the Company, including regarding patents; and (19) the ability of the Company to generate taxable income in future periods. These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this report and we undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements to reflect new or changing information, events or circumstances after the date of this release. We have instituted in the past, and continue to institute, changes to our strategies, operations and processes to address risks and uncertainties and to mitigate their impacts on our business, results of operations and financial condition. However, no assurances can be given that we will be successful in these efforts. For a further discussion of significant risk factors to consider, see “Risk Factors” below in this report and in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. In addition, other risks or uncertainties may be detailed from time to time in our future SEC filings.

Overview

We are a provider of wireless handsets, tablets and accessories to carriers, distributors and dealers in Latin America and the United States. We define, source and sell our proprietary line of products under the verykool ^® brand (collectively referred to as our “ verykool ^® products”). We first introduced our verykool ^® brand in 2006 and verykool ^® products include entry-level, mid-tier and high-end products. We source all our phones from independent design houses and original design manufacturers (“ODMs”). Based on our portfolio requirements, we provide our suppliers with required specifications, and, on selected models, provide the industrial design. We maintain personnel in China to monitor the performance of our suppliers and to conduct a rigorous system of quality control.

Three months ended March 31, 2016 compared with three months ended March 31, 2015

Net Sales

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, our net sales amounted to $9,410,000, a decrease of $5,107,000, or 35%, from $14,517,000 in the same period last year. The largest decrease of $3.7 million came from the absence of sales to two carrier customers in South and Central America that we moved away from in the second half of 2015. In addition, sales to big box retail customers in Mexico decreased by $2.0 million, sales to Miami-based distributors selling to Latin American customers declined by $1.7 million and sales to U.S. customers declined by $191,000, compared to the prior year period. These decreases were partially offset by increased sales aggregating $2.5 million to two other carrier customers in South and Central America. In terms of units, we shipped approximately 254,000 units in the first quarter of 2016, a decrease of 44%, compared to the first quarter of 2015. Partially offsetting the unit decline, our average unit selling price increased by 16%, reflecting an improved product mix.

Gross Profit and Gross Margin

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, our gross profit amounted to $1,178,000, a decrease of $1,376,000, or 54%, from $2,554,000 in the same period last year. Our gross profit margin for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was 12.5%, down significantly from 17.6% in the same period last year. These reductions were caused by a combination of pricing pressure in a more competitive market environment and lower margins on sales of end-of-life products in the face of contracting product life cycles.

Operating Expenses

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, total operating expenses amounted to $1,857,000, almost unchanged from $1,896,000 in the same period last year. Decreased sales commissions and marketing expenses were offset by increased legal fees, certification and other general and administrative expenses.

Other Income (Expense)

In the three months ended March 31, 2015, other expense of $165,000 consisted primarily of losses on forward exchange contracts entered into in January 2016 to hedge currency exposure against the Mexican peso. We had no similar activities in the first quarter of 2015. In the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, interest expense of $56,000 and $123,000, respectively, related to borrowings against our bank line of credit and interest bearing vendor credit.

Provision for Income Taxes

Because of our prior operating losses, our tax provisions for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 were nominal.

Currency Rate Fluctuations

Changes in the relative values of non-U.S. currencies, most importantly the Mexican peso, to the U.S. dollar affect our financial results and financial position. With the exception of Mexico, all other sales are denominated in U.S. dollars. The strength of the U.S. dollar versus the peso has resulted in assets and liabilities denominated in pesos at our Mexican subsidiary being translated into less dollars in our consolidated financial statements. During the period from January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2016, the dollar appreciated 16.9% against the peso. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we recorded a foreign currency loss of $442,000 in our Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss, and the balance in our accumulated other comprehensive loss account on our Consolidated Balance Sheet at March 31, 2016 was $2,034,000.

Foreign currency fluctuations often drive operational responses that mitigate the simple mechanical translation of earnings. During periods of sustained movements in currency, the marketplace and competition adjust to the changing rates. For example, when pricing our products to the marketplace, we may use some of the advantage from a weakening U.S. dollar to improve our position competitively, and price more aggressively to win the business, essentially passing on a portion of the currency advantage to our customers. Competition will frequently take the same action. Conversely, when the U.S. dollar is stronger, as it currently is, we try to raise prices to mitigate the currency impact, but this may not always be possible in the marketplace and our competitors may not always act in the same way. See Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements in this report for information regarding our foreign exchange hedging facility, which we are using to try to reduce some of our currency risk with peso.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

For a number of years prior to 2014, we relied upon our existing cash reserves to fund our business. During that time, we did not have a bank line of credit and our major manufacturing suppliers did not provide us with any vendor credit; we typically were required to pay 15% deposits at the time we placed an order and the 85% balance prior to shipment. Then, in early 2014, there were two significant events that affected our liquidity. First, our primary product vendors agreed to provide us with vendor credit for the 85% balance payments with 60-day payment terms, provided that we reimburse them for the cost of credit insurance and pay a finance charge. In addition, we entered into a Loan and Security Agreement with our bank for a $2 million revolving line of credit, subject to availability based upon domestic and foreign eligible accounts receivable multiplied by an advance rate of 80% and 70%, respectively. In December 2014, our bank line of credit was expanded to $4 million and was expanded further in August 2015 to $7 million. In addition, our major vendors have expanded the amount of credit they offer to us. At our current level of business, we believe that these resources, combined with our existing working capital, will adequately fund our operations through 2016.

In the three months ended March 31, 2016, our cash balances decreased by $2.2 million compared to December 31, 2015. We used $1.7 million to fund operations, including $1.1 million to reduce accounts payable and accrued expenses, $0.4 million to fund increased inventory, prepaids and other assets and $0.8 million to fund the net loss adjusted for non-cash items. These uses were partially offset by $0.5 million in cash generated from reductions to trade and other accounts receivable.

As of March 31, 2016, we had $438,000 of cash and cash equivalents, $12.6 million of net working capital and no funded debt.

Critical Accounting Policies

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates affecting the application of those accounting policies since our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The primary objective of the following information is to provide forward-looking quantitative and qualitative information about our potential exposure to market risk. The term “market risk” for us refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and various foreign currencies. The disclosures are not meant to be precise indicators of expected future losses, but rather indicators of what could cause certain potentially material losses. This forward-looking information provides an overview of how we view and manage ongoing market risk exposures.

Interest Rates

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on balances outstanding under our bank line of credit. At March 31, 2016, however, we had no amounts outstanding under the line.

We are also exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates on balances owed to certain of our manufacturing vendors. At March 31, 2016, we owed $2.9 million to these vendors which could be affected by changes in short-term interest rates. The interest rates at March 31, 2016 ranged from 4.8% to 6.0%, were negotiated individually with each vendor and were not tied to any particular index. For every 1% increase in the negotiated rate, our interest expense would increase by $29,000, assuming the same $2.9 million remained outstanding for the entire year.

Foreign Exchange and Other Risks

All of our sales transactions are denominated in U.S. dollars with the exception of sales to certain customers in Mexico, which are priced in pesos. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, foreign currency cash accounts in Mexican pesos amounted to $44,000 and $1,414,000, respectively. Also, at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, accounts receivable denominated in Mexican pesos amounted to $2,234,000 and $3,134,000, respectively. Product costs and the majority of our operating expenses are denominated in U.S. dollars. However, lease expenses and certain other immaterial operating costs of our China quality control team are denominated in Chinese Yuan Renminbi, and payroll and operating expenses of our employees in Mexico are denominated in Mexican pesos. See Note 9 to our consolidated financial statements in this report for information regarding our foreign exchange hedging facility, which we are using to try to reduce some of our currency risk with peso.

Foreign currency risks are associated with our cash, receivables, payroll and payables denominated in foreign currencies. Fluctuations in exchange rates can result in foreign exchange gains and losses on these foreign currency assets and liabilities, which are included in other income (expense) in our consolidated statements of operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2016, losses of $169,000 on foreign exchange forward contracts used to protect against the exchange rate risk of the Mexican Peso are included in other income (expense). Losses during the three months ended March 31, 2015 were nominal. During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and 2015, foreign exchange translation losses from our Mexican subsidiary were $442,000 and $121,000.

As a result of our international sales, our future operating results could also be adversely affected by a variety of factors, including changes in specific countries’ political, economic (including inflationary and deflationary) or regulatory conditions and trade protection measures.

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls

An evaluation was performed pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that this information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on the evaluation, the President and Chief Executive Officer and the Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our first quarter ended March 31, 2016, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors

In addition to the risk factors included below and other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in “Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors” in, as well as other sections of, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, which factors and information could materially affect our business, financial condition or operating results. The risk factors and uncertainties described in our last Annual Report on Form 10-K, and in this report are not the only risks and uncertainties facing our business. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially affect our business, financial condition or operating results. Except as set forth below, we do not believe there have been material changes to the risk factors included in our last Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The loss or reduction in orders from principal customers, a reduction in the prices we are able to charge these customers or default by these customers on accounts receivable could have a negative impact upon our business and financial results.

Our three largest customers in the three months ended March 31, 2016 represented 32%, 14% and 12%, respectively, of our net sales during that period, and 8%, 35% and 18%, respectively, of our accounts receivable at March 31, 2016. The markets we serve and are targeting for future business are subject to significant price competition and other competitive pressures, and our current customers are not contractually obligated to purchase products from us. For these and other reasons, our customers may seek to obtain products or services from us at lower prices than we have been able to charge in the past, and they could terminate our relationship or reduce their purchases from us in favor of lower-priced or other alternatives. In addition, we have experienced losses of certain customers through industry or vendor consolidation, a trend that may increase in our markets and in the ordinary course of business. The further loss of any of our principal customers, the default by these customers on the amounts they owe us, a reduction in the amount of product or services our principal customers order from us or the inability to maintain current terms, including price, with these or other customers could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity.

We reported a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2016 and for the full year 2015, we were only marginally profitable in the full year 2014 and had a comprehensive loss for 2014 due to foreign currency translation losses, and we experienced net losses for many years prior to that. If we are unable to achieve sustained profitability, our business may not be financially viable.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, we reported a net loss of $903,000 and a comprehensive loss of $1,345,000. For the full year ended December 31, 2015, we reported a net loss of $1,243,000 and a comprehensive loss of $2,109,000. For the full year ended December 31, 2014, we reported net income of $261,000 and a comprehensive loss of $447,000. Prior to that, we reported seven consecutive loss years with an aggregate net loss of $22.7 million. As of March 31, 2016, our cash balance was $438,000, and we had net working capital of $12.6 million and no outstanding funded debt. While we are working to expand our customer base to regain and maintain profitability, if we do not succeed, our business may not be sustainable in the future.

The majority of our revenues are, and for the near future will likely continue to be, generated outside of the United States, in countries that may have volatile currencies or other risks.

The vast majority of our sales activities are conducted in territories and countries outside of the United States, primarily in Latin America. The majority of our sales transactions in Latin America are denominated in U.S. Dollars and therefore may be impacted by changes in the strength of the U.S. Dollar relative to the foreign economies where we conduct business. Sales transactions in Mexico are denominated in the Mexican Peso, which has been a very volatile currency in relation to the U.S. Dollar and resulted in a $2.0 million accumulated other comprehensive loss on our balance sheet at March 31, 2016. Further, the fact that we sell all of our products into, and have developed and manufactured products in, a number of territories and countries other than the United States exposes us to, among other things, increased credit risks, customs duties, import quotas and other trade restrictions, potentially greater and more unpredictable inflationary and currency pressures, labor risks and shipping delays. Changes may occur in social, political, regulatory (including tax) and economic conditions or in laws and policies governing foreign trade, manufacturing, development and investment in the territories and countries where we currently develop and sell products. United States laws and regulations relating to investment and trade in foreign countries could also change to our detriment. We are particularly exposed to the fact that all our manufacturing sources are in China, which may change its own policies on business and foreign investment in companies there. Any of these factors could have material adverse effects on our business and operations. Also, because we purchase and sell products primarily in U.S. Dollars, fluctuations in currency exchange rates could reduce demand for products sold in U.S. Dollars. We cannot predict the effect that future exchange rate fluctuations will have on our operating results or financial position. Although we periodically engage in currency hedging transactions related to our sales to customers in Mexico, such transactions have in the past, and may in the future, result in significant additional financial risks, including increased costs and losses.

The market for our common stock is volatile and our stock price could decline.

The stock market in general, including the market for telecommunications-related stocks in particular, has been highly volatile. The market price of our common stock has fluctuated between $3.25 and $0.79 from January 1, 2015 through May 3, 2016 and is likely to remain volatile. Investors in our common stock may experience a decrease in the value of their stock, including decreases unrelated to our operating performance or prospects, resulting in a substantial loss on their investment. In addition, an active trading market for our common stock may not be sustained, which could affect the ability of our stockholders to sell their shares and could depress the market price of their shares.

We may be delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market if we do not satisfy continued listing requirements.

At various times over the last several years we faced potential delisting from The NASDAQ Stock Market for failure to maintain the minimum $1.00 bid price per share requirement for continued listing. On May 3, 2016, we received a Nasdaq Staff Deficiency letter indicating that, for the prior thirty consecutive business days, the bid price for our common stock had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2). In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), we have been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days, or until October 31, 2016, to regain compliance. The letter states that the Nasdaq staff will provide written notification that we have achieved compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) if at any time before October 31, 2016, the bid price of our common stock closes at $1.00 per share or more for a minimum of ten consecutive business days.

We intend to monitor the bid price of our stock and consider available options if our stock does not trade at a level likely to result in us regaining compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price rule by October 31, 2016. If we do not regain compliance with Rule 5550(a)(2) by October 31, 2016, we may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. To qualify, we would be required to meet the continued listing requirement for market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards for The Nasdaq Capital Market, with the exception of the bid price requirement, and would need to provide written notice of our intention to cure the deficiency during the second compliance period, by effecting a reverse stock split, if necessary. However, if it appears to the Nasdaq Staff that we will not be able to cure the deficiency, or if we are otherwise not eligible, Nasdaq will notify us that our stock will be subject to delisting. In the event of such a notification, we may appeal the Staff’s determination to delist our stock, but there can be no assurance the Staff would grant our request for continued listing.

If our common stock were delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market, you may find it difficult to dispose of your shares and our share price may be adversely affected.

If our common stock were to be delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market, trading of our common stock most likely would be conducted in the over-the-counter market on an electronic bulletin board established for unlisted securities such as OTC Pink, OTCQX, OTCQB or the OTC Bulletin Board. Such trading would reduce the market liquidity of our common stock. As a result, an investor would find it more difficult to dispose of, or obtain accurate quotations for the price of, our common stock, thereby negatively impacting the share price of our common stock.

If our common stock is delisted from The NASDAQ Capital Market and the trading price remains below $5.00 per share, trading in our common stock might also become subject to the requirements of certain rules promulgated under the Exchange Act, which require additional disclosure by broker-dealers in connection with any trade involving a stock defined as a “penny stock” (generally, any equity security not listed on a national securities exchange or quoted on The NASDAQ Stock Market that has a market price of less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions). Many brokerage firms are reluctant to recommend low-priced stocks to their clients. Moreover, various regulations and policies restrict the ability of stockholders to borrow against or “margin” low-priced stocks, and declines in the stock price below certain levels may trigger unexpected margin calls. Additionally, because brokers’ commissions on low-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher priced stocks, the current price of the common stock can result in an individual stockholder paying transaction costs that represent a higher percentage of total share value than would be the case if our share price were higher. This factor may also limit the willingness of institutions to purchase our common stock. Finally, the additional burdens imposed upon broker-dealers by these requirements could discourage broker-dealers from facilitating trades in our common stock, which could severely limit the market liquidity of the stock and the ability of investors to trade our common stock, thereby negatively impacting the share price of our common stock.

Except for the fact that Company at all times shall provide Employee with all or at least a portion of Employee’s medical and/or hospitalization insurance, which shall not be less than that afforded to Company’s other executives, nothing in this Agreement shall limit (i) Company’s ability to exercise the discretion provided to it under any such benefit plan, or (ii) Company’s discretion to adopt, not adopt, amend or terminate any such benefit plan at any time.

Any direct payment or reimbursement of expenses shall be made only upon presentation of an itemized accounting conforming in form and content to standards prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service relative to the substantiation of the deductibility of business expenses.

6. Confidentiality . Employee hereby warrants, covenants and agrees that, without the prior express written approval of Company or unless required by law or court order, Employee shall hold in the strictest confidence, and shall not disclose to any person, firm, corporation or other entity, any and all of Company’s data, including but not limited to (a) information, drawings, sketches, plans or other documents concerning Company’s business or development plans, customers or suppliers, (b) Company’s development, design, construction or sales and marketing methods or techniques, or (c) Company’s trade secrets and other “know-how” or information not of a public nature, regardless of how such information came to the custody of Employee. For purposes of this Agreement, such information shall include, but not be limited to, information, including a formula, pattern, compilation, program, device, method, technique or process, that (i) derives independent economic value, present or potential, from not being generally known to, and not being readily ascertainable by proper means by, other persons who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, and (ii) is the subject of efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to maintain its secrecy. The warranty, covenant and agreement set forth in this paragraph shall not expire, shall survive this Agreement, and shall be binding upon Employee without regard to the passage of time or other events.

7. Non-Compete . Employee acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the Company’s business and that Employee’s duties hereunder justify restricting Employee’s further employment following any termination of employment. The Employee agrees that so long as the Employee is employed by the Company, and (i) for a period of two years following the termination of this Agreement, Employee, except when acting at the request of the Company on behalf of or for the benefit of the Company, will not induce customers, agents or other sources of distribution of the Company’s business under contract or doing business with the Company to terminate, reduce, alter or divert business with or from the Company, and (ii) for a period of one year following the termination of this Agreement, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, either as a principal, agent, employee, employer, consultant, partner, member or manager of a limited liability company, shareholder of a company that does not have securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “1934 Act”), or shareholder in excess of one percent of a company that has securities registered under the 1934 Act, corporate officer or director, or in any other individual or representative capacity, engage or otherwise participate in any manner or fashion in any business that is in competition in any manner whatsoever with the business activities of Company, in or about any market in which Company has, or has publicly announced a plan for doing business. Employee further covenants and agrees that the restrictive covenant set forth in this paragraph is reasonable as to duration, terms, and geographical area and that the same protects the legitimate interests of Company, imposes no undue hardship on Employee, and is not injurious to the public. The covenant set forth under (ii) above shall not apply if Employee’s employment is terminated within twelve months of a Change in Control as defined in of this Agreement. Ownership by Employee, for investment purposes only, of less than one percent of any class of securities of a corporation if said securities are listed on a national securities exchange or registered under the 1934 Act shall not constitute a breach of the covenant set forth under (ii) above. It is the desire and intent of the Parties that the provisions of this paragraph be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. Accordingly, if any particular portion of paragraph shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, this paragraph shall be deemed amended to apply in the broadest allowable manner and to delete therefrom the portion adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such amendment and deletion to apply only with respect to the operation of paragraph in the particular jurisdiction in which that adjudication is made.

8. Termination .

(a)

If Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined below), or if Employee terminates his employment for Reasonable Basis (as defined below), then the Company shall, in exchange for Employee’s execution within 45 days of the termination date of a general release and waiver of claims against the Company as of the termination date in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company and does not revoke such general release and waiver within seven days after its execution, continue to pay as severance Employee’s base salary for 18 months or one-half the remaining term of the Agreement, whichever is greater. Such payments shall be made in accordance with the Company’s customary payroll practices and shall be subject to applicable withholding and payroll deductions and to the extent required by Section 409A of the Code, if the period to execute the general release and waiver and not revoke such release and waiver spans two calendar years, the payment of severance shall commence in the second calendar year with a lump sum payment on the earliest permissible payment date of such severance amounts which absent the requirement of a general release and waiver would have been paid prior to such payment date. Each such payment shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. In the event of any such termination set forth in this section 8(a), Employee will not be entitled to any additional compensation or benefits beyond what is provided in the first sentence of this section 8(a).

(i) For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean that the Board, acting in good faith based upon the information then known to the Company, determines that Employee has engaged in or committed any of the following: willful misconduct, gross negligence, theft, fraud, or other illegal conduct; refusal or unwillingness to perform Employee’s duties; performance by Employee of Employee’s duties determined by the Board to be inadequate in a material respect; breach of any applicable non-competition, confidentiality or other proprietary information or inventions agreement between Employee and the Company; inappropriate conflict of interest; insubordination; failure to follow the directions of the Board or any committee thereof; or any other material breach of this Agreement. Indictment or conviction of any felony, or any entry of a plea of nolo contendre, under the laws of the United States or any State shall also be considered “Cause” hereunder. “Cause” shall be specified in a notice of termination to be delivered by the Company no later than the date as of which termination is effective.

(ii) For purposes of this Agreement, “Reasonable Basis” shall mean (A) a material breach of this Agreement by the Company, provided that Employee shall have first given written notice of such default to the Company and if within thirty days after receipt of such notice, the Company has not cured such default; or (B) termination of Employee’s employment by the Company without Cause during the term hereof; or (C) a reduction in Employee’s salary except to the extent that a majority of the other executive officers of the Company incur reductions of salary that average no less than the percentage reduction incurred by Employee; or (D) termination of the Employee’s employment by the Employee within 12 months after a “Change Of Control,” with Change Of Control being defined as follows:

“Change in Control” shall mean any of the following:

(1) any consolidation or merger of Company in which Company is not the continuing or surviving corporation, other than a merger of Company in which the holders of Company common stock immediately prior to the merger own a majority of the voting common stock of the surviving corporation immediately after the merger;

(2) any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all or substantially all the assets of Company;

(3) any approval by the stockholders of Company of any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of Company;

(4) the acquisition by any person or entity, or any group of persons and/or entities of a majority of the stock entitled to elect a majority of the directors of the Company; or

(5) subject to applicable law, in a Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceeding, the appointment of a trustee or the conversion of a case involving Company to a case under a Chapter 7 bankruptcy proceeding.

(b) In the event that Employee’s employment with the Company is terminated for Cause, by reason of Employee’s death or disability, or due to Employee’s resignation or voluntary termination (other than for Reasonable Basis), then all compensation and benefits will cease as of the effective date of such termination, and Employee shall receive no severance benefits, or any other compensation; provided that Employee shall be entitled to receive all compensation earned and all benefits and reimbursements due through the effective date of termination.

(c) Employee agrees that the payments contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of employment, and Employee covenants not to assert or pursue any other remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to any termination of employment.

(d) Any party terminating this Agreement shall give prompt written notice (“Notice of Termination”) to the other party hereto advising such other party of the termination of this Agreement stating in reasonable detail the basis for such termination. The Notice of Termination shall indicate whether termination is being made for Cause (if Company has terminated the Agreement) or for Reasonable Basis (if the Employee has terminated the Agreement).

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement is intended to be interpreted and operated to the extent possible so that the payments set forth herein either shall be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or shall comply with the requirements of such provision; provided however that in no event shall the Company be liable to the Employee for or with respect to any taxes, penalties or interest which may be imposed upon the Employee pursuant to Section 409A. To the extent that any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement constitutes a “deferral of compensation” subject to Section 409A (a “409A Payment”), then, if on the date of the Employee’s “separation from service,” as such term is defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h)(1), from the Company (his “Separation from Service”), the Employee is a “specified employee,” as such term is defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409-1(i), as determined from time to time by the Company, then such 409A Payment shall not be made to the Employee earlier than the earlier of (i) six (6) months after the Employee’s Separation from Service; or (ii) the date of his death. The 409A Payments under this Agreement that would otherwise be made during such period shall be aggregated and paid in one lump sum, without interest, on the first business day following the end of the six (6) month period or following the date of the Employee’s death, whichever is earlier, and the balance of the 409A Payments, if any, shall be paid in accordance with the applicable payment schedule provided in this Section 8. The Employee hereby acknowledges that he has been advised to seek and has sought the advice of a tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences to the Employee of all payments pursuant to this Agreement, including any adverse tax consequences or penalty taxes under Code Section 409A and applicable State tax law. Employee hereby agrees to bear the entire risk of any such adverse federal and State tax consequences and penalty taxes in the event any payment pursuant to this Agreement is deemed to be subject to Code Section 409A, and that no representations have been made to the Employee relating to the tax treatment of any payment pursuant to this Agreement under Code Section 409A and the corresponding provisions of any applicable State income tax laws. If payments under this Section 8 constitute 409A Payments, references within this Section 8 to termination of employment shall mean Employee’s “separation from service” as defined in Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(h), including the default presumptions thereunder.

9. Remedies . If there is a breach or threatened breach of any provision of Section 6 or Section 7 of this Agreement, the Company will suffer irreparable harm and shall be entitled to an injunction restraining Employee from such breach. Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursuing any other remedies for such breach or threatened breach.

10. Severability . It is the clear intention of the Parties to this Agreement that no term, provision or clause of this Agreement shall be deemed to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, unless such term, provision or clause cannot be otherwise construed, interpreted, or modified to give effect to the intent of the Parties and to be valid, legal or enforceable. The Parties specifically charge the trier of fact to give effect to the intent of the Parties, even if in doing so, information of a specific provision of this Agreement is required consistent with the foregoing stated intent. In the event that such a term, provision, or clause cannot be so construed, interpreted or modified, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and other application(s) thereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall remain in full force and effect.

11. Waiver of Breach . The waiver by the Company or Employee of the breach of any provision of this Agreement by the other Party shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach by that Party.

12. Entire Agreement . This document contains the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements, if any, concerning the subject matter hereof or otherwise concerning Employee’s employment by Company (except for options to purchase shares of Company’s stock previously granted to Employee). This Agreement may not be changed orally, but only by agreement in writing signed by the Parties.

13. Governing Law . This Agreement, its validity, interpretation and enforcement, shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, excluding conflict of laws principles. Employee hereby expressly consents to personal jurisdiction in the state and federal courts located in San Diego, California for any lawsuit filed there against him by the Company arising from or relating to this Agreement.
