Executive Severance Agreements
 
The Company is a party to Executive Severance Agreement (the “Executive Severance Agreement”) each of Bradley S. Vizi, the Company's Executive Chairman and President (dated as of
June 1, 2018),
and Kevin Miller, the Company's Chief Financial Officer (dated as of
February 28, 2014,
as amended), which set forth the terms and conditions of certain payments to be made by the Company to the executive in the event, while employed by the Company, such executive experiences (a) a termination of employment unrelated to a “Change in Control” (as defined therein) or (b) there occurs a Change in Control and either (i) the executive's employment is terminated for a reason related to the Change in Control or (ii) in the case of Mr. Miller, the executive remains continuously employed with the Company for a period of
three
months following the Change in Control. Each Executive Severance Agreement also provide for certain payments, if either (a) the executive is involuntarily terminated by the Company for any reason other than “Cause” (as defined therein), “Disability” (as defined therein) or death, or (b) the executive resigns for “Good Reason” (as defined therein), and, in each case, the termination is
not
a “Termination Related to a Change in Control” (as defined therein).
 
Leases
 
In
February 2016,
the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
No.

-

Leases (Topic
842
)
, which requires lessees to recognize a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a lease liability for all leases with terms greater than
12
months and requires disclosures by lessees and lessors about the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The accounting applied by a lessor is largely unchanged from that applied under the prior standard. After the issuance of Topic
842,
the FASB clarified the guidance through several ASUS; hereinafter the collection of lease guidance is referred to as “ASC
842”.
 
In connection with the continuing developments from COVID-
19,
the Company has reduced its leased office space as a result of its employees moving to a remote work environment. The Company does
not
believe there is an opportunity to sublet any of the vacant office space due to the current commercial rental marketplace. This decision and reduction in the use of the office spaces resulted in a right-of-use asset impairment of
$1.9
million. This loss was determined by identifying the fair value of the impacted right-of-use assets as compared to the carrying value of the assets as of the measurement date, in accordance with
Property, Plant and Equipment
Topic of the FASB ASC. The fair value of the right-of-use assets was based on the remaining term of each lease. In addition, the Company wrote off a total of
$0.3
million in other office lease costs and obsolete equipment.
 
On
December 30, 2018,
the Company adopted ASC
842
using the modified retrospective method for all lease arrangements at the beginning of the period of adoption. Results for reporting periods beginning
December 30, 2018
are presented under ASC
842,
while prior period amounts were
not
adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with the Company's historic accounting under ASC
840,
Leases
. The standard had a material impact on the Company's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet but did
not
have a significant impact on the Company's consolidated net earnings and cash flows. The most significant impact was the recognition of right of use assets and lease liabilities for operating leases, while the accounting for finance leases remained substantially unchanged. For leases that commenced before the effective date of ASC
842,
the Company elected the permitted practical expedients to
not
reassess the following: (i) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases; (ii) the lease classification for any expired or existing leases; and (iii) initial direct costs for any existing leases.  Consequently, financial information will
not
be updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard will
not
be provided for dates before
December 30, 2018.
 
As a result of the cumulative impact of adopting ASC
842,
the Company recorded operating lease right of use assets of
$3.9
million and operating lease liabilities of
$4.1
million as of
December 30, 2018,
primarily related to real estate and office equipment leases, based on the present value of the future lease payments on the date of adoption.
 
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. For leases where the Company is the lessee, right of use assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right of use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company's leases do
not
provide an implicit interest rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments
.
The right of use asset also consists of any lease incentives received. The lease terms used to calculate the right of use asset and related lease liability include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term as an operating expense while the expense for finance leases is recognized as depreciation expense and interest expense using the accelerated interest method of recognition. The Company has lease agreements which require payments for lease and non-lease components.  The Company has elected to account for these as a single lease component with the exception of its real estate leases.
