Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 11. Commitments and Contingencies Indemnities and Guarantees We have agreed to indemnify each of our executive officers and directors for certain events or occurrences arising as a result of the officer or director serving in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer’s or director’s lifetime. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited. However, we have a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy that should enable us to recover a portion of future amounts paid. As a result of our insurance policy coverage, we believe the estimated fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal and have no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. We enter into indemnification provisions under our agreements with other companies in the ordinary course of business, typically with business partners, contractors, customers and landlords. Under these provisions we generally indemnify and hold harmless the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party as a result of our activities or, in some cases, as a result of the indemnified party’s activities under the agreement. These indemnification provisions often include indemnifications relating to representations made by us with regard to intellectual property rights. These indemnification provisions generally survive termination of the underlying agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments we could be required to make under these indemnification provisions is unlimited. We have not incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification agreements. As a result, we believe the estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. Accordingly, we have no liabilities recorded for these indemnification provisions as of December 31, 2013 and 2012. Non-Recurring Engineering Development Costs Neonode and Texas Instruments Inc. (“TI”) entered into an Analog Device Development Agreement on February 4, 2011 and effective as of January 24, 2010 (the “NN1001 Agreement”) pursuant to which TI integrated Neonode’s intellectual property into an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (“ASIC”) developed by TI. The TI ASIC is designated as NN1001 and can be sold by TI exclusively to licensees of Neonode. Under the terms of the NN1001 Agreement, Neonode is obligated to contribute $500,000 of non-recurring engineering (“NRE”) development costs to TI based on shipments of the NN1001. Neonode will contribute to TI an NRE fee of $0.08 per unit for each of the first one million units sold and $0.05 for the next eight million units sold. During the year ended December 31, 2013, $387,000 of NRE expense related to the NN1001 agreement is included in research and development in the consolidated statement of operations. Through December 31, 2013, the Company has made total payments of $270,000 under the NN1001 agreement. No amounts were recorded in the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 as no NN1001 shipments occurred during those periods. Neonode and TI entered into an additional Analog Device Development Agreement on April 25, 2013 effective December 6, 2012 (the “NN1002 Agreement”) pursuant to which TI will integrate Neonode’s intellectual property into an ASIC developed by TI. The TI ASIC is designated as NN1002 and can be sold by TI exclusively to licensees of Neonode. Under the terms of the NN1002 Agreement, Neonode is obligated to contribute $500,000 of NRE to TI based on shipments of the NN1002. The NN1002 is currently in development and has not been released to mass production. When the NN1002 is released in the future to mass production, Neonode will contribute to TI the NRE fee of $0.25 per unit for each of the first two million units sold.
