Lease Commitments

 

In June 2011, the Company entered in to a three year facility lease for office space at a new location in Milford, Massachusetts, beginning August 2011.  In addition to the minimum lease payments, the new lease agreement requires payment of the Company’s pro-rata share of property taxes and building operating expenses.

 

Under the new lease, future minimum lease payments are estimated to be as follows (in thousands):

The Company manufactures its RenalGuard consoles and sterile disposable kits using two separate outside contract manufacturers. The contracts with these manufacturers do not contain minimum purchase requirements or any future commitments. Purchases are made upon request to the manufacturer.

 

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Company hired a clinical research organization (“CRO”) to assist with managing its clinical trial. The contract with the CRO does not contain minimum purchase requirements or any future commitments, and payments are made once services are provided.
