Item 2.05 Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities

On June 10, 2015, the Company announced a restructuring plan with respect to substantially all of its operations. In connection with the restructuring plan, the Company expects to cease substantially all operations at its Shanghai, China facility effective June 10, 2015. The Company is in the process of terminating the majority of its employees. The restructuring plan was a result of the Company’s inability to restructure its bank loan agreement with Raiffeisen Zentralbank Osterreich AG (“RZB”). Principal and interest under the short-term loans then totaling $27,715,781 with RZB were to be repaid in full on July 31, 2012, but the Company has defaulted on this repayment obligation. On April 16, 2014, we received a notice from China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission regarding an arbitration pleading filed by RZB for the defaulted short-term loan. The arbitration hearing took place on October 14, 2014. An arbitral award was subsequently issued on December 31, 2014 which orders the repayment of the loan principal with any late and penalty interest and that RZB has first priority on the proceeds realized from the sale of any assets which collateralize the loan. Discussions to remove the covenant to maintain specific levels of inventories that collateralize the loan have failed. RZB has the right to take possession of the collateral granted in connection with their respective loan agreements and the arbitral award. In June 2012, the Company also defaulted on its repayment obligations of a Senior Loan Agreement with DEG-Deutsche Investitions-Und Entwicklungsgesellschaft Mbh (“DEG”) for a loan principal balance of $16,200,000 with any accrued and penalty interest. DEG has the right to take possession of the collateral granted in connection with its respective loan agreement. The Company does not have sufficient cash flows to continue its current operations and is considering alternative options, including sale of control of the Company or all its assets.

In connection with the above, the Company currently estimates it will recognize costs in the range of approximately $1,080,000 (consisting primarily of employee termination costs) in the fourth quarter of 2015.

The amount of the restructuring charges noted above are estimates, and the actual charges could vary materially based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, the following: 1) the level of employee terminations, and 2) foreign currency exchange fluctuations.
