San Diego
On September 10, 2021, the Company entered into a lease for 11,383 square feet of space in San Diego, California. Terms of the lease include the following:
|
● |
The length of term of the lease is 88 months from the lease commencement date (as defined).
|
|
● |
The lease commencement date is September 16, 2022.
|
|
● |
The monthly rent for the first year of the lease is $51,223 and increases approximately 3% per year.
|
|
● |
The lease provides for a base rent abatement for months two through five in the first year of the lease. |
|
● |
The landlord provided a tenant improvement allowance of $81,860 to be used for improvements as specified in the lease.
|
|
● |
The Company is responsible for other expenses such as electric, janitorial, etc. |
|
● |
The Company opened an irrevocable letter of credit in the amount of $188,844 in favor of the landlord. The letter of credit expires on October 8, 2026 and renews annually as required.
|
As discussed above, the lease provides for scheduled increases in base rent and scheduled rent abatements. Rent expense is charged to operations using the straight-line method over the term of the lease which results in rent expense being charged to operations at inception of the lease in excess of required lease payments. This excess (formerly classified as deferred rent) is shown as a reduction of the operating lease ROU asset in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Rent expense for the San Diego facility commenced in fiscal year 2022, when the Company began making improvements to the Facility.
