Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies |
12. | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Employment Agreements We have employment agreements with certain of our executive officers. The agreements allow for annual compensation, participation in executive benefit plans, and performance-based cash bonuses. Incentive Plan On May 2, 2016, our stockholders approved the Paycom Software, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”). The Incentive Plan provides for payment of incentive compensation that is not subject to certain federal income tax deduction limitations. Participation in the Incentive Plan is limited to certain of our employees designated by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Operating Leases and Deferred Rent We lease office space under several noncancellable operating leases with contractual terms expiring from 2018 to 2024. Minimum rent expenses are recognized over the lease term. The lease term is defined as the fixed noncancellable term of the lease plus all periods, if any, for which failure to renew the lease imposes a penalty on us in an amount that a renewal appears, at the inception of the lease, to be reasonably assured. When a lease contains a predetermined fixed escalation of the minimum rent, we recognize the related rent expense on a straight-line basis and record the difference between the recognized rent expense and the amount payable under the lease as a liability. As of December 31, 2017 and 2016, we had $1.3 million and $1.1 million, respectively, recorded as a liability for deferred rent. Future annual minimum lease payments under noncancellable operating leases with initial or remaining terms of one year or more as of December 31, 2017 were as follows (dollars in thousands):
Year Ending December 31, |  |  |  |
2018 |  | $ | 6,833 |
2019 |  |  | 6,005 |
2020 |  |  | 3,494 |
2021 |  |  | 2,149 |
2022 |  |  | 1,626 |
Thereafter |  |  | 852 |
Total minimum lease payments |  | $ | 20,959 |
Rent expense under operating leases for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015 was $6.1 million, $5.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively. Legal Proceedings We are involved in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. We make a provision for a liability relating to legal matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Although we cannot predict the outcome of these proceedings, legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. We do not currently believe we are subject to material exposure with respect to any loss contingencies.
