Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 5. Commitments and Contingencies Indemnities and Guarantees Our bylaws require that we 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 we have no liabilities recorded for these agreements as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. 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 September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. Non-Recurring Engineering Development Costs On April 25, 2013, we entered into an Analog Device Development Agreement with an effective date of December 6, 2012 (the “NN1002 Agreement”) with Texas Instruments pursuant to which Texas Instruments agreed to integrate Neonode’s intellectual property into an application specific integrated circuit (“ASIC”). The NN1002 ASIC can only be sold by Texas Instruments exclusively to licensees of Neonode. Under the terms of the NN1002 Agreement, we agreed to reimburse Texas Instruments up to $500,000 of non-recurring engineering costs based on shipments of the NN1002. Under the terms of the NN1002 Agreement, we also agreed to reimburse Texas Instruments a non-recurring engineering fee of $0.25 per unit for each of the first two million units sold. The NN1002 began shipping to customers in 2015. As of September 30, 2018, we had made no payments under the NN1002 Agreement. On December 4, 2014, we entered into an Analog Device Development Agreement (the “NN1003 Agreement”) with ST Microelectronics International N.V. pursuant to which ST Microelectronics agreed to integrate Neonode’s intellectual property into an ASIC (“NN1003 ASIC”). The NN1003 ASIC can only be sold by ST Microelectronics exclusively to licensees of Neonode. Under the terms of the NN1003 Agreement, we agreed to reimburse ST Microelectronics up to $835,000 of non-recurring engineering costs as follows:
| ● | $235,000 at the feasibility review and contract signature (paid in full);
| ● | $300,000 on completion of tape-out (paid in full); and
| ● | $300,000 on completion on product validation (paid in full).
Under the terms of the NN1003 Agreement, we also will reimburse ST Microelectronics a non-recurring engineering fee of $5.00 per each of the first 10,000 units sold. As of September 30, 2018, we had made no additional payments under the NN1003 Agreement.
