| Commitments and contingencies | 13. Commitments and contingencies Letters of credit We have entered into Letter of Credit Authorization agreements (collectively, “Letters of Credit”), which are issued under our Credit Agreement. The Letters of Credit are irrevocable and serve as performance guarantees that will allow our customers to draw upon the available funds if we are in default. As of March 31, 2021, we have Letters of Credit totaling $12,895 that are scheduled to expire or renew over the next one-year period. There have been no drafts drawn under these Letters of Credit as of March 31, 2021. Legal proceedings regarding the Merger On April 12, 2021, April 16, 2021, April 21, 2021, and April 22, 2021, April 29, 2021, and April 30, 2021, lawsuits were filed alleging that the Preliminary Proxy Statement filed on April 9, 2021 and/or the Proxy Statement filed on April 28, 2021, relating to the Merger omitted material information that rendered them false or misleading. The lawsuits, each filed by a purported stockholder of Boingo in an individual capacity and/or on behalf of all others similarly situated, are captioned Stein v. Boingo Wireless, Inc., et al., 1:21-cv-03152 (S.D.N.Y.), Ladin v. Boingo Wireless, Inc., et al., 1-21-cv-02076 (E.D.N.Y.), Redfield v. Boingo Wireless, Inc., et al., 1:21-cv-03536 (S.D.N.Y.), Felts v. Boingo Wireless, Inc., et al., 1-21-cv-03591 (S.D.N.Y), Normand v. Boingo Wireless, Inc., et al., 2:21-cv-03626 (C.D. Cal), and Patrick v. Boingo Wireless, Inc., et al., 1:21-cv-03859 (S.D.N.Y). As a result of the alleged omissions, the lawsuits seek to hold Boingo and/or its directors liable for violating Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act, including Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder, and for breaching their fiduciary duty. The lawsuits seek, among other relief, an order enjoining completion of the merger, rescission of the merger in the event it is consummated, and damages. Boingo has not yet responded to the complaints filed in the lawsuits. While Boingo believes that the lawsuits are meritless, there can be no assurance that it will ultimately prevail in the lawsuits. Additionally, similar lawsuits may be, or have been, filed before the stockholder meeting. Other legal proceedings From time to time, we may be subject to claims, suits, investigations and proceedings arising out of the normal course of business. We are not currently a party to any other litigation that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Legal costs are expensed as incurred. Other matters We have received a claim from one of our venue partners with respect to contractual terms on our revenue share payments. The claim asserts that we have underpaid revenue share payments and related interest by approximately $4,600. We are currently in settlement discussions with our venue partner. As of March 31, 2021, we have accrued for the probable and estimable losses that have been incurred, which have been recorded as general and administrative expenses in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. We are not currently a party to any other claims that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
