RELATED PARTIES
Accounts Receivable and Payable with Related Parties
Tellurian's accounts receivable due from related parties primarily consists of tax indemnities and amounts due from employees who received share-based compensation. The Company withholds amounts from wages if the tax liability with respect to such share-based compensation is not paid directly by the employees. The accounts payable due to related parties pertains to agreements with entities which are partially owned by Martin Houston, a major shareholder and Vice Chairman of the Company.
Non-current Note Receivable Due from Related Party
In July 2017, the $251 thousand non-current note receivable due from Mr. Houston was repaid in full, and the demand note evidencing the receivable was canceled.
