13. Risks and Uncertainties

On July 16, 2014, the U.S. Department of the Treasury imposed new economic sanctions against Russian entities, targeting major banks and energy companies and a significant portion of the Russian defense industry, along with certain other parties. Although the Company sells its products in Russia through three independent distributors, against which the sanctions are not applicable, certain end-customers to these independent distributors have been identified as sanctioned entities. The Company is currently not accepting orders from the distributors for end-customers identified as sanctioned entities. As a result, there are no accounts receivable or backlog with any sanctioned end-customers as of September 30, 2014. Management will continue to carefully monitor the compliance of its distribution partners in the Russian market with U.S. trade restrictions, including the recent sanctions.
