KN is talking to 4 major distributors McKesson, Cardinal, Amerisource Bergen, Mundipharma, all have the resources to introduce and market a new product to medical professionals, being a prescription product it can command a higher price than ActiPatch, larger margins for both BIEL and the distributor

* Mundipharma - Negotiations continue for distributorships in 30 additional countries, the shipment of 22,000 devices to Singapore and the Philippines in December has strengthened the BIEL/Mundipaharma relationship
* CE Mark - BIEL has had over $500k in order deposits (note this is deposits not the full order price) held up for the last year due to the CE Mark, new CE requirements effective in 2020 have caused a backlog with the 'Notified Bodies' that process CE Certifications, BIEL has it's prerequisites for Certification completed, ISO 13685 Quality Management done, ISO 13685 Manufacturing Facility done, IEC 60601-1-11 Electrical/Electromagnetic Safety Testing done, MDSAP done
