Note 12 Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
In February 2014, the Company entered into a lease agreement for 1,296 square feet of office space from February 1, 2014 to January 31, 2019. Rent payments range from $2,332.80 to $2,625.59 over the term. Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $40,880 and $42,982, respectively. The following represents future annual minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2013:
The Company previously leased an office facility under a noncancelable operating lease, which had an expiration date of December 31, 2013, with $3500.00 due monthly until expiration.
Legal
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may face various claims brought by third parties and the Company may, from time to time, make claims or take legal actions to assert the Companys rights, including intellectual property rights, contractual disputes and other commercial disputes. Any of these claims could subject the Company to litigation. Management believes the outcomes of currently pending claims will not likely have a material effect on the Companys consolidated financial position and results of operations.
Indemnities and Guarantees
In addition to the indemnification provisions contained in the Companys organization documents, the Company generally enters into separate indemnification agreements with the Companys directors and officers. These agreements require the Company, among other things, to indemnify the director or officer against specified expenses and liabilities, such as attorneys fees, judgments, fines and settlements, paid by the individual in connection with any action, suit or proceeding arising out of the individuals status or service as the Companys directors or officers, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct or conduct that is knowingly fraudulent or deliberately dishonest, and to advance expenses incurred by the individual in connection with any proceeding against the individual with respect to which the individual may be entitled to indemnification by the Company. The Company also indemnifies its lessor in connection with its facility lease for certain claims arising from the use of the facility. These guarantees and indemnities do not provide for any limitation of the maximum potential future payments the Company could be obligated to make. Historically, the Company has not been obligated nor incurred any payments for these obligations and, therefore, no liabilities have been recorded for these indemnities and guarantees in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. |
