Operating Lease Commitment

 

On May 30, 2014, the Company entered into a commercial lease for 2,387 square feet of office space in Norwood, MA. The lease commenced on July 1, 2014, had a three-year term, and required a standby letter of credit of $13,728 payable in favor of the landlord. In August 2015, the lease was amended for the relocation of the Company into 6,326 square feet of office space within the existing building. In January 2016, the Company began occupying the space under this lease amendment, which is for a five-year term. The amendment also required an increase in the standby letter of credit to $36,375 (See Note 3). The Company records the total rent payable during the lease term on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease and records the difference between the rents paid and the straight-line rent as deferred rent, which is classified in other long-term liabilities as of June 30, 2016.
