Operating Leases

We lease several facilities under operating leases expiring through 2020. Certain leases require us to pay increases in real estate taxes, operating costs and repairs over certain base year amounts. Lease payments for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $671,000 and $765,000, respectively.

During 2014, the Company vacated its Pennsylvania office space and recorded an impairment charge of $253,000 representing the estimated net present value of the Company’s contractual obligation over the remaining lease term, adjusted for estimated sublease payments and other associated costs. This impairment charge is recorded in Impairment Charges on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2014. In August 2014, the Company entered into a termination agreement relating to this lease. In exchange for the Company’s termination payment of $150,000, paid in 2014, the Company was released from all future obligations under the lease.

In July 2014, the Company entered into an operating lease for office space in Oxnard, California to replace other office space the Company previously rented in California on a month-to-month basis. The commencement date for this lease started in December 2014 and the term of the lease is for 64 months. The monthly rent expense for this office space approximates $7,000. The future minimum lease commitments shown above include commitments for this new operating lease.

For the year ended December 31, 2014 and through February 2015, the Company leased office space in New Jersey on a month-to-month basis. Effective March 1, 2015, the Company terminated this lease and no longer leases office space in New Jersey. The Company is evaluating potential impairment charges that would be recorded in the first quarter of 2015 relating to idle property and equipment for our former office.

Future minimum rental commitments under all non-cancelable operating leases are as follows (in thousands):

Commercial Commitments

We have entered into a number of agreements with our suppliers to purchase communications and consulting services. Some of the agreements require a minimum amount of services to be purchased over the life of the agreement, or during a specified period of time. Glowpoint believes that it will meet its commercial commitments. Historically, in certain instances where Glowpoint did not meet the minimum commitments, no penalties for minimum commitments have been assessed and the Company has entered into new agreements. It has been our experience that the prices and terms of successor agreements are similar to those offered by other suppliers. Glowpoint does not believe that any loss contingency related to a potential shortfall should be recorded in the consolidated financial statements because it is not probable, from the information available and from prior experience, that Glowpoint has incurred a liability.

Letter of Credit

As of December 31, 2014, the Company had an outstanding irrevocable standby letter of credit with Comerica Bank for $185,000 to serve as our security deposit for our lease of office space in Colorado.
