Certain leases included above contain escalation clauses and, as such, rent expense was recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Net rent expense was $624 thousand, $641 thousand and $779 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, respectively. In connection with the acquisition of EFLS in December 2009, we recorded a performance-related contingent obligation in related to a 2.5% payout payable over 42 months commencing January 1, 2010 and based upon the fair value of projected annual billings of the acquired business, and a $500 thousand fee if the market price of our common stock is not equal to or greater than $2.00 per share for at least twenty trading days between June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2013 (due on June 30, 2013). The Company accrued for each of these contingent liabilities at their respective fair values at the time of the acquisition. For the years ending December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, we paid $206 thousand, $186 thousand and $304 thousand, respectively, relating to the 2.5% payout. In the fourth quarter of 2012 and 2011, we reassessed the carrying value of the contingent liability related to the 2.5% payout and, based upon revised projected future billings, subsequently recorded reductions to the contingent liability of $102 thousand and $411 thousand, respectively, which has been recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations under the caption “Change in estimate of contingent liabilities.” On June 28, 2013, we entered into a Settlement Agreement with EFLS, TLC Investments, LLC, Jamie Hall and Robert E. Wilson, terminating the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement related to the acquisition of Stones River Companies, LLC, now known as EFLS. As part of the Settlement Agreement, our obligation to pay a $500 thousand special fee and a $500 thousand convertible promissory note including interest of $92 thousand were cancelled in their entirety. Additionally, we recorded at $66 thousand favorable adjustment related to the 2.5% payout discussed above. See Note 11, Settlement of Acquisition Obligations. At December 31, 2012, we had recorded a current liability related to these contingent obligations of $728 thousand under the caption “Accrued liabilities” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
