LEGAL MATTERS

Management is currently not aware of any legal proceedings.

INCOME TAXES

In a letter dated July 21, 2008 the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) notified International SMC (HK) Limited “ISMC (HK)”, a former foreign subsidiary, of an unpaid tax balance on Income Tax Return of a Foreign Corporation (Form 1120-F) for the period ending March 31, 2003. According to the notice ISMC (HK) has an unpaid balance due in the amount of $241,639 that includes an interest assessment of $74,125. ISMC (HK) was sold in its entirety by the Company on September 25, 2006 to a British Virgin Islands company (“Purchaser”). The sale and purchase agreement with the Purchaser of ISMC (HK) specifies that the Purchaser would ultimately be responsible for any liabilities, including tax matters. On June 3, 2009 the IRS filed a federal tax lien in the amount of approximately $170,000 against ISMC (HK) under ISMC (HK)’s federal Tax ID. Management sought independent legal counsel to assess the potential liability, if any, on the Company. In a memorandum from independent counsel, the conclusion based on the facts presented was that the IRS would not prevail against the Company for collection of the ISMC (HK) income tax liability based on:

· The Internal Revenue Service’s asserted position that the Company is not the taxpayer.

· The 1120- F tax liability was recorded under the taxpayer identification number belonging to ISMC and not the Company’s taxpayer identification number

· The IRS would be barred from recovery since it failed to assess or issue a notice of levy within the three year statute of limitations

Based on the conclusion reached in the legal memorandum, management does not believe that the Company will have any further liability and has not accrued any liability in this matter.

LEASES

The Company has entered into various operating lease agreements for office and warehouse facilities in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, City of Industry, California and Macau. The leases expire at varying dates. The lease for the existing warehouse facilities in California expires on April 30, 2013 and will not be renewed. Rent expense for the years ended March 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $731,907, $800,198 and $773,964, respectively. On March 8, 2013 we executed a new lease for approximately 86,000 square feet of warehouse space in Ontario, California which will commence on June 1, 2013. The lease will expire on August 31, 2020 (term of 87 months) and includes a provision for the abatement of the first three months base rent in the amount of $113,412 which will be amortized over the life of the lease.

In addition, the Company maintains various warehouse equipment and computer equipment operating leases.

Future minimum lease payments under property and equipment leases with terms exceeding one year as of March 31, 2013 are as follows:

	Property Leases
For fiscal year ending March 31,
2014	$	392,099
2015		514,616
2016		526,496
2017		534,793
2018		487,671
2019 and beyond		1,260,890
	$	3,716,565

The above property lease payments are gross payments which are not net of supplemental sublease fees we receive. During fiscal years 2013, 2012 and 2011 the Company received fees of approximately $56,000, $0 and $15,000 respectively, for sublease of warehouse space. Such fees have been offset against rent expense in the consolidated statements of operations.
