The Company is involved in litigation arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any of the current litigation, individually or in the aggregate, would, if determined adversely to it, have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, cash flows or business.

 

The Company includes various types of indemnification and guarantee clauses in certain arrangements. These indemnifications and guarantees may include, but are not limited to, infringement claims related to intellectual property, direct or consequential damages and guarantees to certain service providers and service level requirements with certain customers. The type and amount of any potential indemnification or guarantee varies substantially based on the nature of each arrangement. The Company has experienced no previous claims and cannot determine the maximum amount of potential future payments, if any, related to such indemnification and guarantee provisions. The Company believes that it is unlikely it will have to make material payments under these arrangements and therefore has not recorded a contingent liability in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

 

          The Klein Parties have the right to require ERS, LLC to repurchase units issued pursuant to the subscription anytime between 18 and approximately 36 months after July 1, 2014 for the amount of $1,500.  This purchase obligation is guaranteed by the Company.  The contingent consideration payments have a minimum guaranteed amount of $1,175.
