For leases that contain predetermined fixed escalations of the minimum rent, the Company recognizes the related rent expense on a straight-line basis from the date of possession of the property to the end of the initial lease term. The Company records any differences between the straight-line rent amounts and amounts payable under the leases as part of deferred rent, in accrued liabilities or long-term liabilities, as appropriate. Cash or lease incentives received upon entering into certain leases (“tenant allowances”) are recognized on a straight-line basis as a reduction to rent from the date of possession of the property through the end of the initial lease term. The Company records the unamortized portion of tenant allowances as a part of deferred rent, in current liabilities or other long-term liabilities, as appropriate.
 
c. Credit Facility:
 
On
March 
31,
2014,
the Company entered into a promissory note and related security documents with Bank Leumi USA. The Company
may
borrow up to
$7,000
against certain of its accounts receivable outstanding amount, based on several conditions, at an annual interest rate of the Wall Street Journal Prime Rate less
0.15%;
provided, however, that the annual interest rate for advances will
not
be less than
4.10%.
As of
September 30, 2017,
that rate amounted to
4.10%.
This promissory note enables the Company, among other things, to engage in foreign currency hedging transactions with Bank Leumi USA to manage exposure to foreign currency risk without restricted cash requirements. The Company
may
borrow under the promissory note until
August 15, 2018
at which time the principal sum of each such loan, together with accrued and unpaid interest payable, will become due and payable. As of
September 30, 2017,
the Company had
no
balance outstanding under the promissory note. As part of the transaction, the Company granted the lender a security interest in its personal property, excluding intellectual property and other intangible assets. The promissory note also contains customary events of default
