11. Commitments and Contingencies

Operating Leases

The Company’s leases consist of office equipment and 37,438 square feet of office and laboratory space in Watertown.

On January 31, 2020, the Company amended its existing operating lease in order to surrender a portion of its leased space, reducing the leased premises by a total of 15,899 square feet from approximately 37,438 square feet to approximately 21,539 square feet. The amendment was accounted for as a modification of the original lease agreement which required the Company to reassess and remeasure the lease liability based on the incremental borrowing rate determined as of the modification date. As a result, the amendment to the original lease resulted in a $2.0 million reduction of the lease liability and corresponding right-of-use asset as of the effective date of the amendment, with an immaterial gain recorded to operating expenses.  

The components of lease expense were as follows:
