Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

A third party software vendor has invoiced us a total of $934,000 for certain licensed software that was lost in transit by a common carrier. Although these licenses have been deactivated and there is no indication of counterfeit use, the vendor has asserted that we are financially responsible for these lost licenses and therefore must pay the full royalty value. We believe that we have contractual defenses and insurance that would cover losses in excess of $100,000. We have accrued a liability of $100,000, but have made no provision for losses in excess of this amount since we do not believe that this liability is probable.

Contractual Commitments

Our commitments include obligations outstanding under operating leases, which expire through 2020. We have lease commitments for office space in Bellevue, Washington; Taipei, Taiwan; Trowbridge, UK; and Tokyo, Japan. We also lease office space on a month-to-month basis in Akron, Ohio, San Diego, California and Boston, Massachusetts.

In August 2013, we amended the lease agreement for our Bellevue, Washington headquarters and extended the term of the original lease that was scheduled to expire in August 2014 to May 2020.

Rent expense was $1.2 million in 2014 and $1.6 million in 2013.

As of December 31, 2014, we had $250,000 pledged as collateral for a bank letter of credit under the terms of our headquarters facility lease. The pledged cash supporting the outstanding letter of credit is recorded as restricted cash.

Operating lease commitments at December 31, 2014 are as follows (in thousands):

Volume Pricing Agreements

In conjunction with our activities under the OEM Distribution Agreements (“ODAs”) with Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”), we enter into OEM Volume Royalty Pricing (“OVRP”) commitments with Microsoft. Under these OVRPs, we are provided with volume pricing on a customer-by-customer basis assuming certain minimum unit volumes are met. The OVRP terms are 12 months. In the event we don’t meet the committed minimum unit volumes, we are obligated to pay the difference between the committed per-unit volume rate and the actual per-unit rate we achieved based upon actual units purchased. The OVRP arrangements do not equate to a minimum purchase commitment but rather, the arrangements are a volume pricing arrangement based upon actual volume purchased. In substantially all instances, we have reciprocal agreements with our customers such that we will receive per-unit price adjustments, similar to the amounts we would subsequently owe to Microsoft if such OVRP volumes are not met. However, in the event a customer is unwilling or unable to pay us, we would be negatively impacted. Based upon the credit-worthiness of our customers, our historical OVRP experience with our customers and OVRP arrangements in general, we do not believe we will incur any material liability in the current or future periods relating to existing agreements.
