        The Company has facility and equipment leases that expire at various dates through 2017. Certain of these facility leases contain renewal options, early termination provisions, and provisions that escalate the base rent payments and require the Company to pay common area maintenance costs ("CAM") during the lease term. The Company entered into a letter of credit facility with a national U.S. financial institution which is collateralized by a security deposit for the leased facility in Phillipsburg, New Jersey. The Company recorded restricted cash related to this security deposit of $0.2 million to other assets in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.
