OCI International Holdings Ltd. (DGTLF)

[ecig observer]

Note that the defendants include blu cig, who is being acquired by Lorillard, and Spark Industries LLC- the manufacturer of the e-cig exclusively marketed by Kretek. All I can surmise with respect to blu cig is that the settlement that was announced in April- just prior to the Lorillard announcement- was a settlement that was exclusive to the patents granted in November of 2010- but I cannot be sure of that. Also note that both Vapor Corp. and NJOY have been sued under the new patents- after having been sued under the earlier ones, as well.
