COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Litigation – The Company knows of no pending litigation against it.

 

Discontinued MAGNA-SL Business and Related 1997 Restructuring; Legacy payables – Commencing in February 1997, the Company executed a plan of restructuring to reposition itself out of its prior activity and into the cardiac activities conducted until 2003. Beginning in October 1997, reorganization counsel offered the Company’s creditors the opportunity to settle liabilities due them at substantially reduced amounts. Most of the Company’s liabilities from that time were settled in this manner as described more fully in the Company’s Form’s 10-KSB for prior years’. Through the passage of time, few of the remaining balances have been settled and others have been written-off. Residual amounts at February 29, 2020, are discussed in Note 3. The Company was also exposed to potential litigation from agreements entered into in connection with such pre-1997 business activities. However, the Company believes that the passage of time and statutes of limitation have mitigated such exposures and as such the Company has not recorded liabilities for such contingencies. Further, as mentioned in Note 1, in January 2018, the Company entered into a Purchase Agreement with its CEO in which the CEO purchased the residual technology and other assets and assumed all liabilities associated with that business.
