Net proceeds are defined as amounts collected from third parties net of the direct costs associated with putting the licensing or enforcement in place and related collection costs. The vendor of the VoIP Patent was also granted a first priority security interest in the patent in order to secure CRBCI’s obligations under the associated purchase agreement. In March 2013, the Company concluded a patent infringement lawsuit, which had initially been filed in August 2009, by entering into a settlement and license agreement in return for a payment of $200. No amounts were payable with respect to the residual discussed above, as the direct costs incurred since the Company last entered into settlement and licensing agreements were in excess of $200.
