Intellectual Property: The Company has developed the Flexlink™ process, the bonding of materials with dissimilar coefficients of thermal expansion, and the fusion bonding of Teflon-based laminate for multi-layer circuit fabrication. It has developed an enhanced version called Flexlink II™ in 1995. It has also received patent grants for Flexlink ™ and Flexlink II™ in 1993, 1994, and 1995. Historically, the Company used Flexlink II™ in its bonding process associated with RF applications. The Company was granted three patents in 1998, two of which were for a printed circuit board process using plasma spraying of conductive metal. The plasma spraying process eliminates a significant portion of the wet process currently used to produce printed circuit boards. [SEC Filing 10-KSB/A 10-22-07]
