Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Pursuant to the written charter of our Audit Committee, the Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving, prior to our entry into any such transaction, all transactions in which we are a participant and in which any of the following persons has or will have a direct or indirect material interest: our executive officers; our directors; the beneficial owners of more than 5% of our securities; the immediate family members of any of the foregoing persons; and any other persons whom the Board determines may be considered related persons, any such person being referred to as a “related person.”

The following is a description of arrangements that we have entered into with related persons since January 1, 2010. We believe that the transactions described below were made on terms no less favorable to us than could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties.

On August 17, 2006, we entered into a stock purchase agreement and further amended the note purchase agreement with Pyxis Innovations Inc., dated October 23, 2002, to, among other things, provide for the establishment of a $14.3 million convertible credit facility with Pyxis. Pyxis is our majority stockholder and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alticor Inc. Subject to certain customary conditions, the agreements contemplated that we could draw down against the convertible credit facility until August 17, 2008. On June 10, 2008, we drew down $4.0 million under the convertible credit facility, leaving $10.3 million of available credit, and issued a convertible promissory note to Pyxis in that amount. On August 12, 2008, we and Pyxis amended the agreements to extend the expiration date of the credit facility to permit borrowing at any time prior to March 31, 2009. On March 11, 2009, we entered into an amended and restated note purchase agreement, dated as of March 10, 2009, with Pyxis to extend the availability of the credit facility until March 31, 2010. In 2009, we drew down $3.0 million under this credit facility, leaving $7.3 million of remaining availability. In 2010, we drew down an additional $2.0 million under the credit facility leaving $3.3 million of remaining availability. In 2011, we drew down an additional $2.0 million leaving $1.3 million of remaining availability. On April 13, 2012 we drew down the remaining $1.3 million. We have no remaining availability to borrow under the credit facility and the aggregate principal amount of $14,316,255, plus interest, is due and payable in full on June 30, 2012 and are convertible into shares of common stock at a conversion price equal to $5.68 per share.

On October 26, 2009, we entered into a Merchant Network and Channel Partner Agreement with Amway Corp. d/b/a Amway Global, a subsidiary of Alticor. Pursuant to this Agreement, Amway Global will sell our Inherent Health brand of genetic tests through its e-commerce Web site via a hyperlink to our e-commerce site. Amway Global will receive a commission equal to a percentage of net sales received by us from Amway Global customers. The agreement has an initial term of 12 months and is automatically renewable for successive 12-month terms. The agreement may be terminated by either party upon 120 days written notice. To date, we have paid Amway Global approximately $1.6 million in commissions under this agreement.

On April 15, 2011, we entered into a contract services agreement with Alticor Corporate Enterprises Inc. and Amway International Inc., affiliates of Alticor (referred to herein as the “Alticor parties”). Pursuant to this agreement, we provided marketing, promotional and training services to Amway in connection with its marketing of our weight management genetic test. Upon execution of the agreement on April 15, 2011, the agreement received retroactive effect as of October 15, 2010 and the initial term expired on October 14, 2011. The agreement was not renewed. We received approximately $143,000 for our services under the agreement.

We have agreed to certain terms for allocating opportunities as permitted under Section 122(17) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. This agreement, as set forth in the Series A Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement dated March 5, 2003, regulates and defines the conduct of certain of our affairs as they may involve Pyxis Innovations Inc. as our majority stockholder and its affiliates, and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of us and our officers and directors in connection with corporate opportunities. Except under certain circumstances, Pyxis and its affiliates have the right to engage in the same or similar activities or lines of business or have an interest in the same classes or categories of corporate opportunities as we do. If Pyxis, or one of our directors appointed by Pyxis and its affiliates acquire knowledge of a potential transaction or matter that may be a corporate opportunity for both Pyxis and its affiliates and us, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Pyxis and its affiliates will not have a duty to inform us about the corporate opportunity or be liable to us or to you for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder of ours for not informing us of the corporate opportunity, keeping it for its own account, or referring it to another person. Additionally, except under limited circumstances, if an officer or employee of Pyxis who is also one of our directors is offered a corporate opportunity, such opportunity shall not belong to us. In addition, we agreed that such director will have satisfied his duties to us and not be liable to us or to you in connection with such opportunity. The terms of this agreement will terminate on the date that no person who is a director, officer or employee of ours is also a director, officer, or employee of Pyxis.

Director Independence

Our Board of Directors has determined that the following members qualify as independent directors under the definition promulgated by the NYSE Amex: Mary E. Chowning, Roger C. Colman, Thomas R. Curran, Jr., Catherine R. Ehrenberger, William C. Mills III and James M. Weaver.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-audit Services of Independent Auditors

Consistent with SEC policies regarding auditor independence, the Audit Committee has responsibility for appointing, setting compensation and overseeing the work of the independent auditor. In recognition of this responsibility, the Audit Committee has established a policy to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent auditor.

Prior to the engagement of the independent auditor for the next year’s audit, management will submit to the Audit Committee for approval a summary of the services expected to be rendered during that year for each of four categories of services.

1. Audit services include audit work performed in the preparation of financial statements, as well as work that generally only the independent auditor can reasonably be expected to provide, including comfort letters, statutory audits, and attest services and consultation regarding financial accounting and/or reporting standards.

2. Audit-Related services are for assurance and related services that are traditionally performed by the independent auditor, including due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, employee benefit plan audits, and special procedures required to meet certain regulatory requirements.

3. Tax services include all services performed by the independent auditor’s tax personnel except those services specifically related to the audit of the financial statements, and includes fees in the areas of tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice.

4. Other Fees are those associated with services not captured in the other categories. The Company generally does not request such services from the independent auditor.

Prior to the engagement, the Audit Committee pre-approves these services by category of service. The fees are budgeted and the Audit Committee requires the independent auditor and management to report actual fees versus the budget periodically throughout the year by category of service. During the year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent auditor for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the Audit Committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging the independent auditor.

The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.
