Jiangsu Ever-Glory is an entity engaged in importing/exporting, apparel-manufacture, real-estate development, car sales and other activities. Jiangsu Ever-Glory is controlled by Mr. Kang. Because of restrictions on its ability to directly import and export products, the Company had utilized Jiangsu Ever-Glory as its agent to assist the Company with its import and export transactions and its international transportation projects since 2005. Import transactions primarily consist of purchases of raw materials and accessories designated by the Company’s customers for use in garment manufacture. Export transactions consist of the Company’s sales to foreign markets such as Japan, Europe and the United States. These transactions ceased at end of 2011.
 
In March 2012, in consideration of the guarantees and collateral provided by Jiangsu Ever-Glory and Nanjing Knitting, the Company agreed to provide Jiangsu Ever-Glory a counter guarantee in the form of cash of not less than 70% of the maximum aggregate lines of credit obtained by the Company. Jiangsu Ever-Glory is obligated to return the full amount of the counter-guarantee funds provided upon expiration or termination of the underlying lines of credit and is to pay annual interest at the rate of 6.0% of amounts provided. As of June 30, 2013, Jiangsu Ever-Glory has provided guarantees for approximately $45.4 million (RMB 281 million) of lines of credit obtained by the Company. Jiangsu Ever-Glory, and its 20.31% owned equity investee, Nanjing Knitting, have also provided their assets as collateral for certain of these lines of credit. The value of the collateral, as per appraisals obtained by the banks in connection with these lines of credit is approximately $21.33 million (RMB 132 million).  Mr. Kang has also provided a personal guarantee for $22.46 million (RMB 139 million). During the six months ended June 30, 2013, $7.27 million (RMB45 million) was provided to Jiangsu Ever-Glory under the counter-guarantee. As of June 30, 2013, the amount of the counter-guarantee had been reduced to $21.24 million (RMB131 million), which was 46.7% of the aggregate amount of lines of credit. This amount plus accrued interest of $1.88 million have been classified as a reduction of equity, consistent with the guidance of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletins 4E and 4G.
  
Interest of 0.5% is charged on net amounts due from Jiangsu Ever-Glory at each month end. Interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 was approximately $0.34 million, $0.64 million, $0.33 million and $0.61 million, respectively.
