17. Guarantees

The Company has issued cash collateralized guarantees and letter of credit backed guarantees supporting certain obligations, primarily the payment of office lease obligations for certain of its subsidiaries in Europe and Asia Pacific. The guarantees were made to secure the respective lease agreements and are for the terms of the lease agreements, which extend through 2018. For each guarantee issued, the Company would have to perform under the guarantee if the subsidiary defaults on a lease payment. The maximum amount of undiscounted payments the Company would be required to make in the event of default on all outstanding guarantees is approximately $2.3 million as of September 30, 2013. The Company has not accrued for these arrangements as no event of default exists or is expected to exist.
