COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 9 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Membership agreement to occupy shared office space The Company occupies shared office space in Austin, TX, and Seattle, WA under membership agreements which end in May 2022 and July 2022, respectively. Fees due under these membership agreements are based on the number of contracted seats and the use of optional office services. As of December 31, 2021, minimum fees due under these shared office arrangements totaled $54,000. Litigation We may become involved in various routine disputes and allegations incidental to our business operations. While it is not possible to determine the ultimate disposition of these matters, management believes that the resolution of any such matters, should they arise, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. ​ On October 26, 2020, AudioEye filed a complaint (amended on December 29, 2020) against accessiBe Ltd. (“accessiBe”) in District Court in the Western District of Texas, Waco Division. The complaint alleges infringement of nine of AudioEye’s patents and various claims under the Lanham Act and New York law and seeks damages, costs, and injunctive relief. On November 1, 2021, accessiBe answered denying infringement, alleging invalidity of the patents at issue and counterclaimed with similar claims and remedies. ​ On July 14, 2021, AudioEye filed a second complaint (amended on August 4, 2021) against accessiBe in the same court alleging infringement of six of AudioEye’s patents and seeking damages, costs, and injunctive relief.
