Office Lease

 

In October 2015, we signed a three year lease extension for our 16,059 square-foot corporate headquarters in Morrisville, NC.  At our option, we may terminate the lease any time in exchange for an early termination fee of $135,000.  During 2014, we provided notice to the landlord of our office lease in Chesterfield, VA, exercising an early termination clause, and therefore our lease terminated on October 31, 2015.  As a result, included in Accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheet, we accrued the remaining lease payments in 2015 of $97,934 as well as the early termination fee of $43,000 as of December 31, 2014.  If we do not terminate the lease in Morrisville, NC early, our required minimum lease payments are as follows:

 

Year Ended December 31:      
2016   $ 136,789  
2017   $ 153,337  
2018   $ 157,994  
2019   $ 134,896  
Total   $ 583,016  

 

Including the accrual of the early termination fee and all 2015 lease payments for the Richmond office lease, rental expenses associated with our office leases totaled $203,953 and $417,903 for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
