Prior to the Company's merger with Gibbs System Inc. (Gibbs), Gibbs leased office space in Moonpark, California from a limited liability corporation controlled by Mr. William F. Gibbs. In connection with the merger in 2008, the lease was assigned to the Company, as a result of which the Company leases the space from that limited liability corporation.  At the time of the assignment of the lease, the Company entered into an amendment to the original terms of the lease, pursuant to which the expiration date for the term of the lease was brought forward from 2020 to December 31, 2012, with an option for the Company to extend the lease for an additional five years. Also, as a result of the lease amendment, the rent that the Company is obligated to pay during the initial term of the lease is $24,710 per month (in lieu of $22,464 per month).
