We entered a lease from March 2017 through February 2022 related to the office space in Wayne, Pennsylvania. In August 2017, we entered an amendment to expand our space, which increased the monthly base payments. On January 1, 2018, we signed a new lease for our UK office effective through February 2022. The total monthly cost for our UK office is approximately $2,900. In March 2017, our Hong Kong office entered into a lease expiring in March 2018, which was then renewed until February 2022 for our current office space, costing approximately $1,900 a month. Our Israel office lease is for a one-year term ending in April 2018, which was then renewed until April 20, 2019 for approximately $1,900 a month. Rent expense incurred during the three and six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017 totaled approximately $62,000 and $128,000 and $65,000 and $142,000 respectively.

Legal Matters

By letter dated March 23, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors notified Richard Ransom, President of the Company, that his employment would be terminated for cause in 30 days unless Mr. Ransom cured the causes for termination, as presented in the letter, within such 30-day period.

On April 12, 2018, Mr. Ransom filed a Complaint in the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, naming as defendants the Company and our CEO, Kelvin Claney. The Complaint alleges that on March 20, 2018, Mr. Ransom was terminated without cause, pursuant to the terms of Mr. Ransom’s employment agreement, as a result of certain changes to the Company’s organizational chart and management duties instituted by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Kelvin Claney. The Complaint seeks to recover Mr. Ransom’s severance compensation for a termination without cause, consisting of approximately $626,000 of base salary thorough the remaining term of his employment agreement; benefits and any performance bonus prorated through the date of termination; immediate vesting of 150,000 stock options; and 1,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. The Complaint also alleges that the Company and Mr. Claney defamed Mr. Ransom and seeks damages in an unspecified amount in excess of $50,000.

On April 18, 2018, the Board of Directors removed Richard Ransom as President of the Company for cause based upon breaches of Mr. Ransom’s fiduciary duties to the Company.

The Company and Kelvin Claney deny that any of their actions constituted a termination without cause under the terms of Richard Ransom’s employment agreement, deny that Mr. Ransom was defamed, and maintain that Mr. Ransom was terminated for cause. Termination for cause does not give rise to payment of severance compensation under the terms of Mr. Ransom’s employment agreement.

ICTV denies any liability to Mr. Ransom and is vigorously defending this matter.

From time to time, we may become involved in various lawsuits and legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of business. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties, and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business. Other than the legal proceeding described above, we are currently not aware of any such legal proceedings or claims that we believe will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, operating results or cash flows.
