Litigation

Various lawsuits, claims and proceedings have been or may be instituted against the Company. The outcome of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty and some lawsuits, claims and proceedings may be disposed of unfavorably to the Company. Management believes that any monetary liability or financial impact to the Company from these matters, individually and in the aggregate, would not be material to the Company’s financial condition or results of operations. However, there can be no assurance with respect to such result, and the monetary liability or financial impact to the Company from these matters could differ materially from those projected.

Indemnifications

The Company indemnifies certain of its customers against claims that products purchased from the Company infringe upon a patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret of a third party. In the event of such a claim, the Company agrees to pay all litigation costs, including attorney fees, and any settlement payments or damages awarded directly related to the infringement. The Company is not currently defending any intellectual property infringement claims and has not been informed of any pending infringement claims. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded a liability related to such indemnification obligations.
