Operating Lease Agreements

On May 23, 2011, the Company executed a non-cancelable operating lease for corporate office space which began on June 1, 2011 and expires on March 30, 2015.  Total base rent due during the term of the lease is $973,595.  Monthly rent escalates during the term, but is recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.  The Company can terminate the final five months of the lease with eight months prior notice and the payment of unamortized costs.  Rent expense under this lease for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was $126,991.

During 2012, the Company entered into multiple two-year lease agreements with HP for equipment and certain other assets. During 2013, the Company entered into two additional two-year lease agreements with HP for equipment and certain financed items. Rent expense under this lease for the three months ended June 30, 2014 totaled $73,844.  On January 11, 2013, the Company obtained a letter of credit from JP Morgan in the amount of $200,000 in favor of HP. This letter of credit expired on January 31, 2014 but was replaced with a new letter of credit in the amount of $270,000 as of June 30, 2014. On July 28, 2014, HP released $100,000 held in the certificate of deposit (See Notes 3 and 17).

During 2013, the Company entered into a two-year service agreement with Equinix Operating Co., Inc. (“Equinix”) where Equinix agreed to provide certain products and services to the Company from January 2013 to January 2015.  Pursuant to the service agreement, the Company agreed to pay monthly recurring fees in the amount of $8,450 and certain nonrecurring fees in the amount of $9,700.  The agreement automatically renews for additional twelve month terms unless earlier terminated by either party.  Hosting expense under this lease totaled $88,256 for the six months ended June 30, 2014.
