NOTE 8 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

LEGAL MATTERS

 

In November and December 2016, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) issued Notice of Seizure letters relating to three shipments of one of the Company’s products purchased from a Canadian distributor with a total value of approximately $193,000. The letter addressed 1,710 units of certain merchandise at the U.S. Port of Entry in Blaine, Washington, all of which are currently held at a bonded warehouse in Blaine, Washington. Management believes that this seizure is related to these particular shipments only and that once the Company provides proof that these goods comply with specific trademark licensing guidelines that the goods will be released without any further consequences to future purchases of inventory.
