During <strong>20</strong>11, we stopped distributing the Vanart lines of products, Maxell Xbatteries and computer accessories and Alcachofivida, a line of artichoke-based dietary<br />

supplements. In addition, we incorporated several additional brands into our product catalog, including Xiomega chia seed based nutritional supplements, Xtraviril energy pills for men,<br />

Dream Water natural sleep aid, Vudu Shot pheromone perfumes, the Finesse line of shampoos, Nutrigomitas children’s nutritional supplement and the 2Life line of basic toiletries.<br />

During the first quarter of <strong>20</strong>12 we ad<strong>de</strong>d CMD, a new line of herbal based vitamins and remedies.<br />

At times, we enter into short-term exclusive distribution agreements on a preliminary, experimental basis, in or<strong>de</strong>r to test the real <strong>de</strong>mand for specific products. If upon<br />

the termination of these agreements we conclu<strong>de</strong> that there is no significant <strong>de</strong>mand for a specific product, we cease the distribution of such product. For this reason, in the normal<br />

course of business, products we distribute one year may not be distributed the next year. We are always seeking suppliers with whom we can enter into distribution agreements to<br />

distribute health and beauty aids, consumer goods, general merchandise and other products, so long as they provi<strong>de</strong> acceptable margins. We cannot assure you that we will enter into<br />

distribution agreements to distribute any or all of these products at acceptable margin levels.<br />
