Additionally, there were amounts due to us from Pernix for legal fee reimbursement relating to a litigation matter stemming from a license and supply agreement in the amounts of approximately $250,000 as of the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. During the year ended December 31, 2015, we entered into a settlement agreement with Pernix according to which Pernix paid us $175,000 in cash, resulting in the elimination of the approximately $46,000 outstanding payable and $250,000 outstanding receivable disclosed above and the recording of approximately $29,000 in settlement fees on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
