Salaries are payable in RMB at the US dollar rate set forth in the table per month based on the exchange rate at the time of payment.
 
The employment agreements between B2B Chips and each of the named executive officers  provide for the payment of one month’s wages in the event the agreements are terminated by the Company on less than one month’s notice and for repatriation of the named executive officers to Hong Kong or, at the officer's request, to his place of origin if such place is nearer to his place of work, at the Company’s expense, in the event of the termination of the agreements by the Company, as a result of the disability of the officer, or by the officer upon one month’s notice or forfeiture of one month’s wages to the Company or as a result of a breach of the applicable agreement by the Company.  The payment of one month’s wages would result in a payment of $16,667 to Mr. Cochran, a payment of $15,166 to Mr. Xia and a payment of $14,500 to Mr. Li based on their current salary levels.
 
The employment agreements between B2B Chips and each of the named executive officers further provide for the payment of medical expenses in the event that the officer is incapacitated whether or not the cause of such incapacity is work-related.  If the cause of the officer’s incapacity or death is work-related, the officer is also entitled to compensation in accordance with the law of the officer’s then-current place of employment or the laws of Hong Kong if the local law does not provide for such payments.  If the cause of the officer’s incapacity is not work-related, the officer is also entitled to payment of full wages for up to three months and half wages for up to an additional nine months so long as the incapacity persists, which would result in maximum payments of $125,002, $113,745 and $108,750, respectively, to Messrs. Cochran, Xia and Li based on their current salary levels.
