Legal Matters
    
From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation incidental to the conduct of its business. In the ordinary course of business, the Company is a party to inquiries, legal proceedings and claims including, from time to time, disagreements with vendors and customers.

On March 3, 2015, Advanced Media Networks, L.L.C. filed suit in the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island against the Company for allegedly infringing two of its patents, seeking unspecified monetary damages and other relief.  Both of the asserted patents are currently being reexamined by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office.  The Company intends to defend vigorously against this lawsuit, but the outcome of this matter is inherently uncertain.  Due to the very early stage of the litigation, the potential range of loss related to this matter cannot be determined, but the outcome could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s Mobile Broadband business, financial condition and results of operations.
