NOTE 5:-       INTANGIBLE ASSET, NET


On August 25, 2010, the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, DPL, entered into an agreement with Telkoor Power Supplies Ltd. ("TPS"), a subsidiary of Telkoor Telecom Ltd., pursuant to which, (1) TPS sold, assigned and conveyed to DPL all of its rights, title and interest in and to the intellectual property associated with the Compact Peripheral Component Interface 600 W AC/DC power supply series (the “Assets” or “IP”) and (2) DPL granted to TPS an irrevocable license to sell the  Assets  in Israel on an exclusive basis. The IP was purchased in order to decrease lead time and costs of the production process. In consideration for the purchase of the IP, DPL paid TPS an amount of $480. The consideration for the right to sell the Assets in Israel will be paid to the Company as a yearly royalty fee of 15% of TPS's direct production costs of sales.


TPS will provide the Company training and technical support, if necessary, for a period of 60 months in order to enable the Company to properly and effectively use the IP to manufacture the Assets.  In accordance with the agreement, the consideration for the IP may be reduced over a four-year period in the event that annual sales for each year between 2011 and 2014 are less than a fixed threshold of units on an annual basis based on an offset value per unit as described in the agreement. If there is a shortfall in sale of units in one annual period and in the subsequent period the Company sells more than the fixed unit threshold, this difference will be offset from any reduced consideration in any annual periods between 2011 and 2014. As a result of lower than anticipated sales by our DPL subsidiary of the Compact Peripheral Component Interface 600 W AC/DC power supply series (CPCI 600W) through 2013, the Company amended its agreement with Telkoor (effective January 1, 2014 for the duration of the original agreement or until the shortfall of CPCI 600W product sales will be offset) to include additional products in addition to the original CPCI 600W product. We will not be required to make any royalty payments to Telkoor under the manufacturing agreement with Telkoor until the shortfall of CPCI 600W product sales will be offset. In light of this change, the Company believes the additional offset available under the expansion of covered products adequate to cover the remaining asset value at December 31, 2013 of $171.


To date, DPL has designated a manufacturing facility to manufacture the units of the IP purchased and accordingly decreased its manufacturing costs of the CPCI 600W product. The Company expects cost reductions in royalty expense offsets available through the expanded agreement to adequately cover the remaining unamortized balance of the asset.


The useful life method of the IP has been determined to be five years and the amortization method is the straight-line method, as management considers this method as the most appropriate.
