The Autlán refundable deposit is the remaining principal plus interest liability related to the deposit received for the proposed sale of our Velardeña Properties and other mineral concessions to Autlán in 2019. On September 11, 2019, the Company announced that Autlán exercised its right to terminate the agreement for the purchase of the properties. As a result of termination of the agreement, the Company is required to repay the original $1.5 million deposit amount by making monthly payments of $257,000, commencing on December 9, 2019, until the deposit amount is repaid with interest at approximately 11% per annum. Through March 31, 2020 the Company paid Autlán approximately $0.8 million against the original $1.5 million deposit, including interest of approximately $32,000, leaving a balance due at March 31, 2020 of approximately $0.7 million, including accrued interest. The Company recorded approximately $23,000 of interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 related to the Autlán refundable deposit. On April 7, 2020, the Company and Autlán agreed to reduce the monthly payments to $81,000 and the interest rate applicable to the unpaid repayment amount will be increased from 11% per annum to 12% per annum, effective on April 9, 2020. The remaining balance is now due in full by December 2020.  

 

The premium financing consists of the remaining balance, plus accrued interest, related to premiums payable for the Company’s directors and officers insurance and general liability insurance. In June 2019, the Company financed $151,000 of its premium for general liability insurance. The premium is payable in twelve equal payments at an interest rate of 5.74% per annum. At March 31, 2020, the remaining balance, plus accrued interest, was approximately $13,000. In December 2019 the Company financed $482,000 of its premium for directors and officers insurance. The premium is payable in twelve equal payments at an interest rate of 5.74% per annum. At March 31, 2020 the remaining balance, plus accrued interest, was approximately $285,000.

 

The office lease liability is related to lease liabilities for office space at the Company’s principal headquarters in Golden, Colorado and in Mexico and Argentina (see Note 5).

 

Other Long-Term Liabilities

 

Other long-term liabilities of $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the periods ended March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, are primarily related to a lease liability for office space at the Company’s principal headquarters in Golden (see Note 5).
