Note 6 – Commitments and Contingencies

License Agreement

In 2015, the Company entered into licensing agreements which expire in February 2033. Pursuant to these agreements, the Company has an exclusive royalty-free license associated with semiconductor power switches which enhances its intellectual property portfolio. The agreements include both fixed payments, all of which were paid prior to 2017, and ongoing variable payments. The variable payments are a function of the number of associated patent filings pending and patents issued under the agreements. The Company will pay $10,000 for each patent filing pending and $20,000 for each patent issued annually with one-half the annual payment due within 20 days of December 21^st of each year and one-half annual the payment due within 20 days of June 21^st of each year of the agreements, up to a maximum of $100,000 per year (i.e. five issued patents). All five patents associated with the agreements are issued.

At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the other long-term liability for the estimated present value of future payments under the licensing agreements was $877,778 and $917,100, respectively. The Company is accruing interest for future payments related to the issued patents associated with these agreements.

Legal Proceedings

The Company may be subject to litigation from time to time in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently party to any legal proceedings.

Indemnification Obligations

The employment agreements of Company executives include an indemnification provision whereby the Company shall indemnify and defend, at the Company’s expense, its executives so long as an executive’s actions were taken in good faith and in furtherance of Company’s business and within the scope of executive’s duties and authority.

COVID-19 Pandemic

As of the date of these financial statements, the COVID-19 pandemic continues to spread throughout the United States and the rest of the world. The ultimate extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the financial performance of the Company will depend on future developments, including, among other things, the duration and spread of COVID-19 and its related variants, the timing, scope and efficacy of vaccination efforts, additional governmental restrictions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the overall economy, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. If the COVID-19 pandemic contributes to additional significant volatility in the global financial markets in the future, the Company’s ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, on acceptable terms or at all, may be impacted, though such risk has not materialized to date. If the financial markets and/or the overall economy are negatively impacted for an extended period, the Company’s operating results may be materially and adversely affected.
