LEASES

2031.

ROU Asset Impairment Charges
During the
fourth
quarter of
2020,
we recorded charges for non-cash impairments related to certain of our ROU assets as discussed further in Note
3.
The total of these charges was
$612.
In determining whether our ROU assets were impaired, we considered the intended future use of the assets, including whether we expect to be able to sublease the related facilities. In both cases, we expect to eventually be able to sublease the facilities, but we currently do
not
expect to successfully negotiate a sublease for either facility in
2021.
Our projected future cash inflows from sublease income reflect this expectation. In order to determine whether an impairment existed, we compared all future cash outflows related to the lease for the underlying ROU asset and compared this with our projected future cash inflows from the sublease. We developed several scenarios to model the expected timing and amount of sublease income we expect to receive. In all cases, the future cash outflows exceeded the expected future cash inflows, resulting in the conclusion that the ROU assets were impaired. We then discounted the projected deficit in each scenario using our estimated cost of capital and probability weighted the results to determine the amount of the impairment charge to record. To the extent that our estimate of future cash inflows exceeds the amount we ultimately receive from any sublease we enter into for these facilities, we
may
need to record an additional impairment charge related to these ROU assets in a future period.

the leased space will be reduced to approximately
33,650

years. At the effective date of this modification, we recorded an increase in our ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately
$133.
 
During the
fourth
quarter of

we executed new leases for automobiles for certain of our employees in Europe. At the dates of execution, we recorded increases in our ROU assets and operating lease liabilities. The total increase recorded in

related to these new leases was approximately

Year ended December 31, 2019
 
Non-cash increases (decreases) in operating lease liabilities and ROU assets as a result of lease modifications:

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

and the lease expired in

At the effective date of this modification, we recorded a reduction in our ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of approximately

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

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.

$48.
