Caption: Figure 5.

Relative astrometry of 12 Psc B. Based on the first imaging epoch in 2004, the separation (top panel) and position angle (bottom panel) of a stationary source would follow the background track shown in black as a result of proper and parallactic motion of the host star. 12 Psc B is clearly comoving and shows significant orbital motion.
