Leases | 3. Leases The Company leases office space in South Plainfield, New Jersey for its principal office under three noncancelable operating leases through May 2022 and August 2024, in addition to office and laboratory space in Bridgewater, New Jersey and office space in various countries for international employees primarily through workspace providers. The Company also leases approximately 220,500 square feet of office, manufacturing and laboratory space at a facility located in Hopewell Township, New Jersey (the “Campus”) pursuant to a Lease Agreement (the “Lease”) with Hopewell Campus Owner LLC (the “Landlord”). The rental term of the Lease commenced on July 1, 2020 and has an initial term of fifteen years (the “Initial Term”), with two consecutive ten year renewal periods, each at the Company’s option. The aggregate rent for the Initial Term will be approximately $111.5 million. The rental rate for the renewal periods will be 95% of the Prevailing Market Rate (as defined in the Lease) and determined at the time of the exercise of the renewal. The Company is also responsible for maintaining certain insurance and the payment of proportional taxes, utilities and common area operating expenses. The Lease contains customary events of default, representations, warranties and covenants. Subject to the terms of the Lease, the Company has a right of first refusal to rent certain other space of the Campus, which would be triggered upon the Landlord’s issuance of a second round proposal or letter of intent to another tenant for such space. The Company also may seek to build a new separate building on the Campus, which may not contain less than 75,000 square feet (the “New Building”). Upon receipt of notice of the Company’s intention to build the New Building, the Landlord may, in its sole discretion, construct and lease the New Building to the Company or enter into a ground lease with the Company permitting the Company to construct the New Building. Rent terms for the New Building would be determined based on the land value, construction and project costs subject to whether the Landlord or Company constructs the New Building. On June 19, 2020, the Company entered into a commercial manufacturing service agreement for a term of 12.5 years with MassBiologics of the University of Massachusetts Medical School ("MassBio"). The agreement will expire on December 31, 2032 unless the Company terminates it with 24 months prior written notice to MassBio. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, MassBio agreed to provide the Company with four dedicated rooms for its gene therapy AADC program. The Company concluded that the agreement contains an embedded lease as the Company controls the use of the four dedicated rooms and the equipment therein. As the present value of the facilities exceeds the assessed fair value, the Company determined that it is a finance lease. Given that the embedded finance lease is designed for the production of PTC’s AADC program and would not have an alternate use outside the PTC gene therapy platform without incurring significant costs, the Company determined that the lease should be treated as research and development expense under ASC 730 and accordingly, expensed the present value of all guaranteed future cash payments of $41.4 million during the twelve month period ending December 31, 2020. Additionally, during the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2021, the Company recorded finance lease costs of $0.4 million and $0.8 million related to interest on the lease liability, respectively; no finance lease interest costs were recorded in the three and six month periods ending June 30, 2020. The Company also leases certain vehicles, lab equipment, and office equipment under operating leases. The Company’s leases have remaining operating lease terms ranging from 0.5 years to 14 years and certain of the leases include renewal options to extend the lease for up to 10 years. Rent expense was $5.2 million and $2.6 million for the three month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $10.6 million and $5.0 million for the six month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

​ The Company did not enter into any new leases during the six month period ended June 30, 2021.

​ In conjunction with the Asset Purchase Agreement by and between the Company and BioElectron Technology Corporation, dated October 1, 2019 (the “Asset Acquisition Agreement”), the Company acquired BioElectron’s lease in Mountainview, California. As substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired was related to vatiquinone, the relative fair value allocated to the right of use asset and corresponding lease liability for the Mountainview lease was determined to be immaterial, and accordingly is not included in the tables above. The future minimum lease payments for the Mountainview lease as of June 30, 2021 are $0.9 million, and $1.4 million for the remainder of 2021 and for 2022, respectively, and $0 thereafter.
