In addition, in October 2011, we entered into a license agreement with Avatao Biotech pursuant to which we granted Avatao exclusive rights to market and perform our miRview ® mets and miRview ® mets2 tests in China. Avatao will also have exclusive rights to market and perform one additional test in China, to be selected by Avatao within one year. However, as of May 15, 2012, we believe Avatao Biotech is in breach of the license agreement for failure to make required payments to us, and we are currently exploring our options due to this breach, including potentially terminating the agreement.



We are largely dependent upon these distributors for the commercial success of our tests outside of the United States. The potential revenues from these agreements consist of contingent payments based on the sale of our products. These payments will depend upon our collaborators’ ability to devote the necessary resources to successfully commercialize these tests. In addition, if any of our current or potential future distributors were to breach or terminate its agreement with us, the commercialization of these tests could be adversely affected because we may not have sufficient financial resources or capabilities to successfully commercialize these tests on our own or find other partners.
