Significant judgment is required in both the determination of probability and the determination as to whether a loss is reasonably estimable.

1.
In August 2009, a software company and one of its owners filed an arbitration proceeding against the company and one of its subsidiaries, claiming an alleged breach of a non-disclosure agreement between the parties. The plaintiffs sought damages in the amount of approximately NIS 52,000 (approximately $13,371). The arbitrator determined that both the Company and its subsidiary breached the non-disclosure agreement. In January 2015 the arbitrator rendered his ruling and determined that the company should pay damages to the plaintiffs. The company financial results of operations include a net impact of $1,553 resulting from the arbitration. In December 2015, the same software Company filed a motion to appoint another arbitrator to the district court in Tel Aviv in order to sue the Company for additional damages. The court decided against the company’s position, and appointed an arbitrator. In April 2016, the Company submitted a motion to overrule the District's court to the Supreme Court. The company is now waiting for a decision.

Based upon the advice of counsel, the Company does not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
