JOINT AND SEVERAL PAYROLL LIABILITY | JOINT AND SEVERAL PAYROLL LIABILITYDuring 2017, 2018 and 2019, the Company improperly calculated and reported the amount of income to certain employees, and did not collect and remit the correct amount of its employees' portion of income and payroll taxes, related to stock option exercises as required by the IRS. Due to IRS statutory requirements, the Company has joint and several liability for the full amount that was not withheld and remitted to the proper taxing authorities. This amount of the liability was approximately $1.0 million at December 31, 2020 and 2019. Included in other income (loss), net in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations for 2019 is approximately $0.3 million related to the liability. If the Company can establish that its employees have in fact paid these obligations, either presently or in the future, it will be relieved of its liability.
