From the last 10k (copy and pasted) it clearly says "as part of the settlement"


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On March 28, 2013 we initiated patent litigation against an outside party. As of March 31, 2015, the case was in full discovery, the pre-trial hearing was held, and the deliberations were continuing. Mediation took place in May 2015 to discuss a potential settlement, and on January 15, 2016, the parties reached a settlement in the matter. As part of the settlement, we will receive a payment of $4.9 million, net of legal fees, which will be recorded as other income in the first quarter of 2016.
