6. Deferred Rent


We amended our office lease during 2013. On February 1, 2014, we moved our corporate offices to a different building within the same office complex owned and operated by our landlord in Campbell, California, where our corporate offices had been located prior to February 1, 2014. Since the new space is controlled by the same landlord, we considered the lease amendment to be a modification to our preexisting lease; accordingly, we are amortizing the remaining balance in deferred rent immediately prior to February 1, 2014 over the remaining term of the modified amended lease. Additionally, our landlord provided us with $106,600 of leasehold improvements on the new space that we are amortizing over the remaining term of the amended lease. All of the prior leasehold improvements that had not been previously amortized were accelerated and recognized in their entirety from the time of the amendment through January 2014, prior to the move.

Deferred rent expense represents the remaining balance of the aggregate free rent we received from our landlord and escalations that are being recognized over the life of the lease as a component of rent expense. Deferred rent benefit relates to the unamortized portion of the leasehold improvements provided to us by our landlord (i.e., incentives) that we are recognizing on a straight-line basis as a reduction to rent expense over the term of the lease.
