COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation
The Company is, from time to time, a party to various legal proceedings and claims, which arise in the ordinary course of business. Other than the matter described below, the Company is not aware of any legal matters that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.
On February 12, 2014, the Company entered into a strategic alliance agreement with CentraMed, Inc. (“CentraMed”). On May 6, 2014, the Company signed an asset purchase agreement with CentraMed. This purchase agreement provided for the Company’s purchase of substantially all of CentraMed’s assets related to its business of providing healthcare analytics and consulting services to hospitals, physicians, and other providers. The agreement provided the Company the right to terminate the agreement in a number of circumstances, including if the Company was not satisfied, in its sole and absolute discretion, with the results of its due diligence review; the Company’s senior lender did not consent to the transactions contemplated by the agreement; or the Company’s Board did not authorize the transactions contemplated by the agreement. On January 12, 2015, the Company terminated the purchase agreement in accordance with its termination rights.
On March 9, 2015, CentraMed asserted claims against the Company for breach of contract, misrepresentation, tortious interference with contracts and prospective economic relationships and bad faith in connection with the strategic alliance agreement and the asset purchase agreement. On March 24, 2015, the Company rejected the aforementioned claims and denied any liability to CentraMed. The Company intends to contest vigorously any action instituted against it by CentraMed. Because of the many questions of fact and law that may arise, the outcome of this matter is uncertain at this point. Based on the information available to us at present, we cannot reasonably estimate a range of loss for this matter and, accordingly, we have not accrued any liability associated with this matter.
