c. Royalties:

 

The Company participated in programs sponsored by the Israeli government for the support of research and development activities. Through December 31, 2021, the Company had obtained grants from the IIA for certain of the Company’s research and development projects. The Company is obligated to pay royalties to the IIA, amounting to 3%-3.5% of the sales of the products and other related revenues (based on the dollar) generated from such projects, up to 100% of the grants received. Royalty payment obligations also bear interest at the LIBOR rate. The obligation to pay these royalties is contingent on actual sales of the products and in the absence of such sales, no payment is required.

 

Royalty expenses relating to the IIA grants included in cost of revenues for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2020 and 2021 amounted to $715, $1,066 and $1,175, respectively. As of December 31, 2021, the aggregate contingent liability to the IIA (including interest) amounted to $27,174.
