Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
NOTE 7 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 7 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Our lease for office, warehouse and laboratory space in Redwood City, California expires in 2016. Our Stamford, Connecticut office is being leased for the year 2013 and converts to a month-to-month basis thereafter. We also lease certain office equipment under operating lease arrangements, which expire in 2013. Our future minimum lease payments under these non-cancelable operating leases for facilities and equipment are as follows (in thousands):
|  | Minimum
For the Years Ended December 31, |  | Payments
| 2013 |  |  | $ | 951 |
| 2014 |  |  |  | 739 |
| 2015 |  |  |  | 744 |
| 2016 |  |  |  | 751 |
| 2017 |  |  |  | 709 |
| Total |  |  | $ | 3,894 |
Total rental expense for facilities and equipment was $580,000, $591,000 and $555,000 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As part of the sale of our cosmeceutical and toiletry business to RP Scherer Corporation in July 2000, we guaranteed a minimum gross profit percentage on RP Scherer’s sales of products to Ortho Dermatologics (Ortho) and Dermik Laboratories, Inc. (Dermik) (see Note 10). As permitted under Delaware law and in accordance with our bylaws, we indemnify our officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is or was serving at our request in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer’s or director’s lifetime. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited; however, we have a director or officer insurance policy that limits our exposure and may enable us to recover a portion of any future payments. We believe the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of December 31, 2012. In the normal course of business, we provide indemnifications of varying scope under our agreements with other companies, typically our clinical research organizations, investigators, clinical sites, suppliers and others. Pursuant to these agreements, we generally indemnify, hold harmless, and agree to reimburse the indemnified parties for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified parties in connection with use or testing of our products or product candidates or with any U.S. patent or any copyright or other intellectual property infringement claims by any third party with respect to our products. The term of these indemnification agreements is generally perpetual. The potential future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited. Historically, costs related to these indemnification provisions have been immaterial. We also maintain various liability insurance policies that limit our exposure. As a result, we believe the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. Accordingly, we have not recorded any liabilities for these agreements as of December 31, 2012.
