8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Matters:

 

From time to time, we may be involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. As of June 30, 2015, there were no pending or threatened lawsuits that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the results of our operations.

 

Other Commitments:

 

The Company enters into various contracts or agreements in the normal course of business whereby such contracts or agreements may contain commitments. Since inception, the Company entered into agreements to act as a reseller for certain vendors; joint development contracts with third parties; referral agreements where the Company would pay a referral fee to the referrer for business generated; sales agent agreements whereby sales agents would receive a fee equal to a percentage of revenues generated by the agent; business development agreements and strategic alliance agreements where both parties agree to cooperate and provide business opportunities to each other and in some instances, provide for a right of first refusal with respect to certain projects of the other parties; agreements with vendors where the vendor may provide marketing, investor relations, public relations, technical consulting or subcontractor services, vendor arrangements with non binding minimum purchasing provisions, and financial advisory agreements where the financial advisor would receive a fee and/or commission for raising capital for the Company. All expenses and liabilities relating to such contracts were recorded in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles through June 30, 2015. Although such agreements increase the risk of legal actions against the Company for potential non-compliance, there are no firm commitments in such agreements, other than a monthly forgivable draw arrangement with certain sales representatives, as of June 30, 2015.

 

Upon the signing of customer contracts, the Company enters into various other agreements with third party vendors who will provide services and/or products to the Company. Such vendor agreements may call for a deposit along with certain other payments based on the delivery of goods or services. The Company may be contingently liable for other payments required under such agreements.
