Related Party Transactions | Note 13: Related Party Transactions In February 2012, the Company entered into a strategic development and marketing agreement with Credo Semiconductor (Hong Kong) Ltd. (Credo), a privately-funded, fabless semiconductor company, to develop, market and sell integrated circuits. Two of the Company's executive officers between them loaned a total of $250,000 to Credo for a portion of the seed funding needed by Credo to commence its integrated circuit design efforts. These loans may be converted into minority equity interests in Credo. The agreement called for the Company to make payments to Credo upon Credo achieving certain development and verification milestones towards the development of IC products and provides the Company with exclusive sales and marketing rights for such IC products. In 2012, Credo achieved a number of the milestones set forth in the agreement, and the Company paid Credo $1.1 million. In 2013, the Company paid Credo an additional $1.4 million for achievement of additional development milestones, as well as for mask costs and wafer purchases from third-party vendors. All amounts incurred have been recorded as research and development expenses. In the first half of 2013, the Company announced prototype samples of SerDes products developed pursuant to the strategic development and marketing agreement. Under the agreement, the first $2.3 million of gross profits generated by the sale of these integrated circuits will be retained by the Company, and, thereafter, the gross profits will be shared equally by the Company and Credo. As of December 31, 2013, $0.2 million of future payments were recorded as a current liability.
