The Company receives license and royalty payments under such commercial agreements, some of which are nonrefundable upfront payments for license fees. These advances are initially recorded as deferred revenue on the Company’s balance sheets. The Company believes that the licenses provided and materials transferred under such agreements are not distinct from each other for financial reporting purposes and as such, they are accounted for as a single performance obligation. Advance payments for license fees and minimum annual royalties are recognized on a pro-rata basis over the related contract term. Royalties from licensee’s sale of the Licensed Product that exceed the minimum annual royalty are recognized when cumulative royalties exceed the minimum royalty. Milestone license fees are recognized when the licensee reaches the milestone of selling a contractually specified number of units of the Licensed Product.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"> </p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify">Revenue associated with the sale of the Company’s patented electro-optic polymer materials for incorporation into the customers’ commercial photonic devices or for their device development and evaluation activities will be recognized at the time title passes, which is typically at the time of shipment or at the time of delivery, depending upon the contractual agreement between the parties.</p> <p style="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0"><b> </b></p>
