Note 9 - Commitments and Contingencies

     Prior to the acquisition of intellectual property disclosed in Note 2 to these condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company was obligated to pay royalties ranging from 7% to 50% on revenue generated by the sale of certain licensed software products. Royalty expense included in cost of software licenses was approximately $584,000 and $374,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 and $1,095,000 and $713,000, respectively, for the six months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011. The Company is not obligated to pay any minimum amounts for royalties. As a result of the acquisition of the intellectual property, the Company will no longer be required to pay royalties related to its Monarch Report Analytics platform, exclusive of one final payment representing the amount that would have been due for the 30 day period ended April 30, 2012 had the closing of the acquisition not previously occurred.

     From time to time, the Company is subject to claims and may be party to actions that arise in the normal course of business. The Company is not party to any litigation that management believes will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
