Litigations, Claims and Assessments

In the normal course of business, the Company may be involved in legal proceedings, claims and assessments arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company records legal costs associated with loss contingencies as incurred and accrues for all probable and estimable settlements.

The Company, its Chief Executive Officer and members of its Board of Directors are named as defendants in a legal proceeding filed in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey on September 2, 2014 that has not yet been fully resolved in connection with the Company’s Asset Purchase Agreement with Corinthian Ophthalmic, Inc. (“Corinthian”). A shareholder of Corinthian, alleging a fraudulent transfer, is seeking to recover the purchase price of its Corinthian shares and other damages in aggregate amount of approximately $1.1 million. The parties are not close to agreement on a settlement, and although further discussions may occur, the parties are prepared to proceed to trial. The court conducted a pretrial conference on January 22, 2018 and entered a final pretrial order on January 23, 2018. The order provided, among other things, for a final pretrial conference to be conducted on August 15, 2018 to address objections to expert witnesses’ opinions and testimony, with objections to be submitted by July 18, 2018 and responses by August 1, 2018. Trial briefs, requests for jury instructions, and proposed voir dire questions are due on August 30, 2018. The trial is scheduled for September 10, 2018. The Company is indemnified by Corinthian and Corinthian’s applicable insurance policy provides coverage of $10 million, such that the Company does not expect to incur a material loss as a result of this litigation and, as a result, did not record a loss contingency as of March 31, 2018 or December 31, 2017, respectively.
