Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Long-Term Restricted Cash

On May 13, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement with 195 Broadway LLC to lease office space for its New York headquarters. The Company is required to deliver to 195 Broadway LLC, and maintain in effect during the entire lease term, an unconditional irrevocable letter of credit in the amount of $2.4 million, as security for the Company’s obligations under the lease. Provided the Company is not in default beyond the applicable notice and grace periods, on the fifth anniversary of the lease commencement date, the required letter of credit amount will be reduced to $1.2 million. On May 12, 2011, the Company entered into an irrevocable letter of credit with Union Bank of Switzerland (“UBS”) in the amount of $2.6 million. The letter of credit matured and was renewed on May 12, 2012 and will continue to renew on a yearly basis. The letter of credit is collateralized by U.S. Treasury Bills in the amount of $2.6 million. The additional amount of $200,000 was required by UBS to account for potential market fluctuation in the value of such collateral. Upon a default by the Company in respect of its payment obligations under the lease, 195 Broadway LLC may request the funds from UBS under the terms of the letter of credit, and UBS will draw down on the Company’s restricted cash to satisfy the obligation.

Restricted Cash

The Company held $0.5 million restricted cash related to the acquisition of the assets of Two Bright Lights, Inc. completed in March 2014. Under this escrow agreement, the cash was held as restricted through September 2015, at which point it was released, as there were no contingencies for which the Company needed to reimburse.

Operating Leases

The Company leases office facilities and certain warehouse space under non-cancelable operating lease agreements which expire at various dates through 2022. Rent-free periods and scheduled rent increases are recorded as components of rent expense on a straight-line basis over the related terms of such leases. Rent expense for each of the years ended December 31, 2015, 2014 and 2013 amounted to $3.0 million, $3.0 million and $2.9 million, respectively.
