LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
On February 18, 2014, Crossroads Systems, Inc. (“Crossroads”) filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Quantum in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, alleging infringement of U.S. Patents 6,425,035 and 7,934,041. An amended complaint filed on April 15, 2014 also alleged infringement of U.S. patent 7,051,147. Crossroads asserts that we have incorporated Crossroads' patented technology into our StorNext QX and Q-Series lines of disk array products, and into our Scalar libraries. Crossroads seeks unspecified monetary damages and injunctive relief. Crossroads has already dismissed all claims of infringement with respect to the StorNext QX and Q-Series products. We do not believe it is reasonably possible that we will pay material damages related to this lawsuit.
On September 23, 2014, we filed a lawsuit against Crossroads in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California alleging patent infringement of our patent 6,766,412 by Crossroad’s StrongBox VSeries Library Solution product. We are seeking injunctive relief and the recovery of monetary damages.
