(3) On September 30, 2016 the Company and the other parties to the transaction in which the Company acquired MediaMiser amended the terms on which a subsidiary of the Company is required to make a supplemental purchase price payment for MediaMiser. Prior to the amendment, the amount of the supplemental purchase price payment was to be determined by the achievement of certain financial thresholds and was in no event to exceed $3.8 million (C$5 million). The amendment fixed the amount of the supplemental purchase price payment at $1.5 million (C$2 million) payable in two equal installments on March 31, 2017 and 2018 to designated recipients, except that no payments will be made to designated recipients who fail to satisfy specified conditions. The Company has the option to pay up to 70% of the supplemental amount in shares of Innodata Inc. stock. In March 2017, the Company paid 70% of the first installment by issuing 253,622 shares of Innodata Inc.’s common stock and paid 30% of the first installment in cash in April 2017.
 
(4) In the second quarter of 2017, the Company moved both its U.S. and Canadian headquarters to new premises. As an incentive for the Company to lease in their respective office spaces, the lessors for each of the properties offered to partially defray the construction cost by offering a tenant improvement allowance. Under the terms of the lease contracts the Company is liable to refund any unamortized portion of this allowance should it decide to terminate the lease before the expiry of the specified lock-in period. This amount will be amortized based on the contractual liability and recognized as a reduction in rent expense for the period covered.
