Because Michael Hanbury is a director of the company and President and Chief Executive Officer of DCL Medical Laboratories, it appears that this agreement may need to be filed under Item 601(b)(10)(ii)(A) of Regulation S-K. Please provide us with your views in this regard or otherwise file the agreement as a material contract. |
