NOTE 7 – LEASES

The Company leases space under operating leases for administrative, manufacturing and laboratory facilities in Cleveland, Ohio. The Company also leases office space in New York, New York, that the Company sublets. The Company also leases certain office equipment under operating leases, which have a non-cancelable lease term of less than one year and the Company has elected the practical expedient to exclude these short-term leases from the Company’s right-of-use assets and lease liabilities.

The Company has entered into two sublease agreements with unrelated third parties to occupy the Company’s administrative offices in New York, New York. The Company expects to receive $0.8 million in future sublease income through September 2025 from the two subleases noted above.
