  b. Litigation:

 

The Company received written communication from a distributor to provide unspecified compensation for pre-paid goods subject to the voluntary field action (from April 2014). After considering the views of its legal counsel as well as other factors, the Company’s management believes that there is a reasonably possible likelihood of a loss from any related future proceedings would range from a minimal amount up to 1,075,000 Euros.

 

In July 2016, a service provider filed a suit seeking damages from the Company’s subsidiary amounting to $1,967,822. The Company’s subsidiary and the plaintiff have entered into a confidential settlement agreement in the amount of $600,000, and on April 24, 2019, the parties filed a stipulation of dismissal, dismissing all claims in this action. On April 25, 2019, the court denied as moot all pending motions. The related increase in provision of $354,000 was recorded to “Research and development expense” within the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
