Maturity of Lease Liabilities The following table summarizes the maturity of lease liabilities as of September 30, 2020 (in thousands):
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had entered into additional operating leases that have not yet commenced with total fixed payment obligations of $38.7 million. The leases are expected to commence between the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 and the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 and have initial lease terms of approximately 10 to 15 years. Lease Modifications In response to the broad effects of COVID-19, the Company re-negotiated certain payment terms with lessors to mitigate the impact on the Company’s financial position and operations. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had deferred lease payments of $12.1 million. The majority of these lease payments are payable over the next year. On April 10, 2020, the FASB issued guidance for lease concessions provided to lessees in response to the effects of COVID-19. Such guidance allows lessees to make an election not to evaluate whether a lease concession provided by a lessor should be accounted for as a lease modification, in the event the concession does not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or the obligations of the lessee. Such concessions would be recorded as negative lease expense in the period of relief. The Company elected this practical expedient in accounting for lease concessions provided for our center lease agreements and the impact was immaterial.
