Commitments and Contingencies [Abstract] |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | NOTE 7: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Structured Settlement Program During March and December 2017, the Company settled and/or wrote off debt of $1,159 for $288 cash payment and recognized a gain of $872. This debt included $693 of payables previously recorded by our dissolved subsidiary Broadcast International, Inc, as we had exhausted all efforts to identify and settle these obligations in the first quarter of 2017. In August 2016, the Company settled debt of $90 for $35 cash payment, resulting in a gain on debt settlement of $55. In June 2016, the Company settled debt of $614 for $123 cash payment and the issuance of 409,347 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock, fair value at conversion date of $85, and recognized a gain on debt restructuring of $406. In conjunction with this debt settlement, an additional 809,842 shares of restricted common stock were issued to investors for cash to facilitate the settlement of a portion of the $614 debt. In March 2016, the Company issued 8.00% nonconvertible promissory notes in favor of certain general unsecured creditors in the aggregate principal amount of $288 to settle an aggregate amount of $839 of accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities. The aggregate amount of payables, accrued expenses and other liabilities was subsequently revised to $796. In September 2016, the amounts previously settled with nonconvertible promissory notes were paid in cash of $249 resulting in a gain on the debt settlement of $547. No gain was previously recorded. Litigation In February 2016, a former vendor alleging our failure to pay outstanding invoices for approximately $335, which is included in accounts payable in the December 31, 2016 accompanying consolidated balance sheet, initiated a breach-of-contract lawsuit against us. Also in February 2016, a former vendor alleging our failure to pay outstanding invoices for approximately $51, which is included in accounts payable in the December 31, 2016 accompanying consolidated balance sheet, filed a motion for summary judgment against us. During 2017, we negotiated settlement with the vendor for $45. The Company is involved in various legal proceedings incidental to the operations of its business. The Company believes that the outcome of all such other pending legal proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, liquidity, or operating results. Leases Future minimum lease payments under leases with initial or remaining non-cancelable lease terms in excess of one year as of December 31, 2017 are as follows:
Year ending December 31, |  | Lease Obligations |
2018 |  | $ | 587 |
2019 |  |  | 499 |
2020 |  |  | 398 |
2021 |  |  | 61 |
Total future minimum obligations |  | $ | 1,545 |
Rent expense totaled $474 and $416 for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, and is included in General and Administrative expenses. Our CEO was awarded 4,951,557 performance shares with a grant date to be determined upon certain conditions being satisfied. As December 31, 2017 those conditions had not been met and were deemed not probable to be achieved resulting in no compensation expense being recorded. Termination benefits On August 10, 2017, the Company announced that it was closing its New Jersey and Minnesota locations. The Company has accrued one-time termination benefits related to severance to the affected employees of $146 and will recognize the expense over the period the employees are expected to continue service to the Company.
