Fixed Assets and Capital Lease Obligations
 
Assets held under the terms of capital leases are included in fixed assets and are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the terms of the leases or the economic lives of the assets. Obligations for future lease payments under capital leases are shown within liabilities and are analyzed between amounts falling due within and after one year (see Note 8).
 
As discussed above, iBio CMO is leasing its facility in Bryan, Texas as well as certain equipment from the Second Affiliate under a 34-year sublease. See Note 8 for more details of the terms of the sublease.
 
The economic substance of the sublease is that the Company is financing the acquisition of the facility and equipment and accordingly, the facility and equipment are recorded as assets and the lease is recorded as a liability. As the sublease involves real estate and equipment, the Company separated the equipment component and accounted for the facility and equipment as if each was leased separately.
 
The following table summarizes by category the gross carrying value and accumulated depreciation of fixed assets (in thousands):
