Total rent expense under our operating leases, net of sublease income, was $1.3 million in each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2013 and 2012. Some of our leases contain renewal options and escalation clauses, and require us to pay taxes, insurance and maintenance costs.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

We are not currently a party to any material legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business. From time to time, we receive claims of and become subject to consumer protection, employment, intellectual property and other litigation related to the conduct of our business. Any such litigation could be costly and time consuming and could divert our management and key personnel from our business operations. In connection with any such litigation, we may be subject to significant damages or equitable remedies relating to the operation of our business. Any such litigation may materially harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.
