Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in various other legal proceedings, most of which are routine litigation, in the normal course of business.  Our management does not believe that the resolution of the other legal proceedings that we are involved with will have a material adverse impact on our financial position or results of operations.

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