Online
Resources Corporation (the Company) is the defendant in a civil action lawsuit styled
Lawlor v
.
Online Resources Corporation,
Case No. 2010-5601 which was filed in the Fairfax County, Virginia Circuit Court (the
Trial Court). Mr. Lawlor, the Companys former chairman and chief executive officer, alleged certain claims in connection with the termination of his employment with the Company, including breach of his severance agreement. On
November 8, 2011, the Trial Court issued a judgment awarding Mr. Lawlor $5,295,619 in damages plus pre-judgment interest and $2,131,035 in attorneys fees, plus applicable interest.
On February 3, 2012, the Company filed an appeal with the Supreme Court of Virginia (Case No. 120208) seeking reversal of the
judgment against the Company on the counts which it lost at trial, in whole or in part. On June 6, 2012, the Supreme Court of Virginia granted the Companys petition and heard the Companys appeal on November 1, 2012.
On January 10, 2013, the Supreme Court of Virginia issued a written opinion affirming the Trial Courts decision with regard to
liability, thereby affirming the award of damages in the principal amount of $5,295,619. The Supreme Court reversed the Trial Courts decision to award attorneys fees and costs in the amount of $2,131,035, ruling that the Trial Court
erred in determining that Mr. Lawlors severance agreement entitled him to legal fees for claims that were not related to breach of that agreement. The Court remanded the case to the Trial Court for further proceedings. At this time no
assurance can be given as to the result of the case on remand or the position that Mr. Lawlor may take.
The Company is
continuing to review its legal options. In the event the Company does not petition the Supreme Court for a rehearing of the appeal, it will seek disbursement of cash being held by the Trial Court to satisfy the principal judgment and interest,
excluding the claim for attorneys fees. The Company plans to await the result of the remand to the Trial Court on the issue of attorneys fees.
