Operating Leases

At December 31, 2015, we had a commitment under a non-cancelable operating lease for our New York office until December 31, 2016 totaling $171,000. We also had a non-cancelable operating lease for our Dallas office and lab until August 31, 2016 totaling $7,000. We had an operating lease for our Cleveland office and lab until December 31, 2025 totaling $2,520,000. We have the option to extend the lease for an additional five years. We can also terminate the lease early at December 31, 2020, at the end of year five, and pay for unamortized tenant improvements. Our total lease costs and unamortized tenant improvements would total $1,744,000 with the termination provision.
