In 2012, the French government introduced a 3% tax on dividends or deemed dividends for entities subject to French corporate income tax. On October 6, 2017 the French Constitutional Court released a decision declaring that the 3% tax on dividends or deemed dividends is unconstitutional. As a result of that decision, the Company has filed a claim for refund of approximately $3.3 million (€2.8 million) for these taxes paid since 2015. The French government has not yet determined if, how, or when they will reimburse companies who have filed claims. There is even discussion of additional tax measures to offset this cost. Therefore, due to the unknown factors involved in the potential reimbursement of the claim, the Company did not recognize the refund claim in the accompanying financial statements as of September 30, 2017. The Company will continue to monitor future events as they relate to this matter.
