13.	COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

From time to time the Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business, including matters relating to product liability claims. Such product liability claims sometimes involving wrongful death or injury have historically been covered by product liability insurance, which provided coverage for each claim up to $1,000,000. During the third quarter of 2014, the Company did not renew its product liability insurance since the renewal policy amount was cost prohibitive. The Company is currently seeking a new insurance carrier or alternative means to satisfy this potential liability exposure, as well as to fulfil the sales terms of some of our customers, which require the insurance coverage.

As previously disclosed, we are co-defendants under an action filed by an individual in June 2013 in the Circuit Court of Broward County claiming personal injury resulting from use of a Brownie’s Third Lung. Plaintiff has claimed damages in excess of $1,000,000. The insurance carrier’s legal counsel indicates unfavorable outcome is possible, but not probable. We believe such claim is without merit and intend to continue to aggressively defend such action. In addition, as previously disclosed, we are also co-defendant under an action filed March 2015, in the Circuit Court of Broward County claiming personal injury resulting from the use of a Brownie’s Third Lung product. This claim falls outside the Company’s period of insurance coverage. The Company believes the claim to be a Workers Compensation claim relating exclusively against other defendant and without merit, and has retained counsel to aggressively defend this action.

On August 14, 2014, the Company entered into a new lease commitment. Terms of the new lease include thirty-seven month term commencing on September 1, 2014; payment of $5,367 security deposit; base rent of approximately $4,000 per month over the term of the lease plus sales tax; and payment of 10.76% of annual operating expenses (i.e. common areas maintenance), which is approximately $2,000 per month subject to periodic adjustment.

Base rent expense attributable to the Company’s headquarters facility totaled approximately $12,000 and $12,000 for the three month periods ending March 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.
