As previously disclosed, on March 5, 2015, T-Rex Property AB (“T-Rex”) filed a complaint against the Company in the United States District Court for the North District of Texas, Civil Action Number 3:15-cv-00738-P.

The complaint sought unspecified monetary relief, injunctive relief for the payment of royalties and reimbursement for attorneys’ fees. The Company denied the allegations set forth in the complaint. On October 5, 2015, the parties entered into a negotiated settlement agreement under which the Company made one payment in 2015 and a final payment in January 2016 to T-Rex and in exchange received a worldwide license to import, make, use and sell all inventions covered by patents owned or managed by T-Rex, with certain exclusions due to limitations on T-Rex’s legal ability to grant licenses. The case was subsequently dismissed.
