During the second quarter of 2015, we amended our lease agreement for the Redmond, Washington headquarters facility effective July 8, 2015. The amended lease resulted in our headquarters relocating to a nearby building, extending the term through April 2021, lowering the square footage to approximately 20,460, providing lease inducement incentives and lowering the rental rate.  The lease commitment of approximately $1.7 million will be paid over the term of the lease. As a result of this lease amendment, the remaining balance of the restructure liability relating to the lease of approximately $120,000 was incorporated into our deferred rent liability in July 2015.

 

In addition to the Redmond facility, approximately 24,000 square feet is leased at two foreign locations, including our sales, service, operations and engineering office located in Shanghai, China, and our German sales, service and engineering office located in Munich, Germany.

 

We signed a lease agreement effective November 1, 2015 and extends through October 31, 2021 for a new facility located in Shanghai, China which we moved into during the first quarter of 2016.  The new lease approximately doubled our space to 19,400 square feet at approximately 54% of the prior lease rental rate.

 

During the fourth quarter of 2016, we signed a lease agreement for a new facility located in Munich, Germany which was effective March 1, 2017 and extends through February 28, 2022.  The new lease slightly increased our space to 4,895 square feet at approximately the same cost per square foot as the prior lease.
