Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is from time to time involved in various other legal proceedings, most of which are routine litigation, in the normal course of business.  In the opinion of management, the resolution of the other legal proceedings in which the Company is involved will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

In the normal course of business, the Company has agreed to indemnify officers and directors of the Company to the maximum extent permitted under Delaware law and to indemnify customers as to certain intellectual property matters related to sales of the Company’s products.  There is no maximum limit on the indemnification that may be required under these agreements.  The Company has never incurred, nor do we expect to incur, any liability for indemnification.
