LEASES
 
 
As previously discussed in Note
2,
we account for our leases in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic
842,
which was effective for us as of
January 1, 2019.
In connection with the implementation of ASC Topic
842,
we recorded non-cash increases in operating lease liabilities and ROU assets of
$5,197
and
$4,816,
respectively, as of the effective date of this guidance.
 
We lease our offices, warehouse facilities and certain equipment under non-cancellable operating leases that expire at various dates through
2028.
Total operating lease and short-term lease costs for years ended
December 31, 2019
and
2018,
respectively, were as follows:

Supplemental cash flow information related to leases for the year ended

was as follows: 
 
Non-cash increases (decreases) in operating lease liabilities and ROU assets as a result of lease modifications:
 
Modification to Ambrell’s U.K. facility lease
  $
(486
)
Modification to lease for facility in Mansfield, Massachusetts
  $
1,811
 
Modification to Ambrell’s Netherlands facility lease
  $
(48
)
 
The lease for Ambrell’s U.K. facility had an original term of
15
years, which extended through
August 2029.
The lease included the option to terminate the lease at specified points in time without penalty. We exercised this option in
March 2019, 
and the lease expired in
September 2019.
At the effective date of this modification, we recorded a reduction in our ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately
$486.
 
On
April 8, 2019,
we executed an amendment to the lease for our facility in Mansfield, Massachusetts that extended the term of the lease for an additional
forty
months to
December 31, 2024 
and expanded the amount of leased space by approximately
6,100
square feet. The current rate per square foot that is in place through
August 31, 2021 (
the original expiration date of the lease) did
not
change. After
August 31, 2021,
there are predetermined fixed escalations of the rate as outlined in the amendment. As a result of this modification, we recorded an increase in our ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately
$1,811.
 
During the
third
quarter of
2019,
the lease for a portion of Ambrell’s facility in the Netherlands was modified to reduce the term of that lease to expire in
September 2019
as that portion of the space was
no
longer needed. At the effective date of this modification, we recorded a reduction in our ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately
$48.
