Corporate Headquarter Lease

The Company identified one operating lease for its corporate headquarters located in Rockville, Maryland. The annual base rent for the office space is $161,671, subject to annual 2.5% increases over the term of the lease. The lease provides for a rent abatement for a period of 12 months following the Company's date of occupancy. The lease has an initial term of 10 years from the date the Company makes its first annual fixed rent payment, which is expected to occur in January 2020. The Company has the option to extend the lease two times, each for a period of five years, and may terminate the lease as of the sixth anniversary of the first annual fixed rent payment, upon the payment of a termination fee. As of the lease commencement date, it is not reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the renewal periods or early terminate the lease and therefore the end date of the lease for accounting purposes is January 31, 2030. The remaining term of the lease at March 31, 2019 is 10.83 years.

Supplemental balance sheet information related to the lease is as follows:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2019		2018

Property and equipment, net	$	737,658	$	—

Other long-term liabilities	$	1,189,277	$	—

The operating lease right-of-use asset is included in property and equipment and the lease liability is included in other long-term liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. In order to determine the present value of lease payments, the Company utilized a discount rate of 7.7%. This rate was determined based on available information of the rate of interest the Company would pay to borrow on a collateralized basis at an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment over a similar term on the transition date.

The components of lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018 were as follows:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2019		2018

Operating lease cost*	$	54,606	$	47,559

*Includes short-term leases, which are immaterial.

Because the corporate headquarter lease provides for a 12-month lease abatement, the cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities is $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2019.
