We have operating lease agreements for the laboratory, office and warehouse facilities that we occupy in various locations.

In July 2011, we entered into a non-cancelable lease agreement with an, at the time, minority shareholder for office and laboratory space in Seattle, Washington. The lease terms were subsequently amended multiple times, most recently in August 2019, when we expanded the existing premises to approximately 65,500 square feet. Cash payment for rent of the expanded premises commenced January 2020, four months after the landlord delivered the expanded premises to us for construction of certain tenant improvements, and the lease term for both the existing premises and the expanded premises ends October 2032, subject to our option to twice extend the lease for five years. The amended lease also requires us to pay additional amounts for operating and maintenance expenses.

In August 2019, we entered into an agreement to rent approximately 100,000 square feet in what was a to-be-constructed, new headquarters building in Seattle, Washington. In connection with the lease, we entered into a $2.1 million letter of credit with one of our existing financial institutions. The lease commenced in December 2020, when the landlord delivered the premises to us for construction of certain tenant improvements. We occupied the new building in 2021, cash payment for rent began in October 2021 and the lease term ends in August 2033, subject to our option to twice extend the lease for five years. In connection with this lease, the landlord agreed to fund $20.0 million in improvements, which was subsequently reduced to $14.8 million as a result of our change requests made during landlord construction of the building, net of an administration fee. As of December 31, 2022, we incurred $14.9 million in certain tenant improvement costs, all of which has been reimbursed by the landlord. As of December 31, 2021, we incurred $14.9 million in certain tenant improvement costs, of which $10.9 million had been reimbursed by the landlord. The remaining $4.0 million is presented as a reduction in the cash flows used to measure our ROU asset and lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021. The lease also requires us to pay additional amounts for operating and maintenance expenses.

In October 2019, we entered into an agreement to lease approximately 14,750 square feet in a separate Seattle, Washington location, pursuant to a lease expiring in October 2029, subject to our ability to exercise an early termination right after the third year, which we exercised during the year ended December 31, 2022. In connection with the lease, the landlord agreed to provide a tenant improvement allowance in the maximum amount of $0.7 million. The lease also required us to pay additional amounts for operating expenses.

In April 2018, we entered into a lease agreement to lease approximately 13,400 square feet in South San Francisco, California. The lease term is through March 2026 and provides for one five-year extension option. We are responsible for our share of allocable operating expenses, tax expenses and utilities costs during the duration of the lease term. In connection with the lease, the landlord funded agreed-upon improvements. The landlord was solely responsible for the $2.4 million cost of such improvements. The lease agreement was amended in February 2020 to lease approximately 19,900 additional square feet and provides for a $0.6 million tenant improvement allowance.

In December 2019, we entered into an agreement to lease approximately 3,100 square feet of office space in New York City, New York, pursuant to a lease that expires November 2025, subject to our ability to exercise an early termination right in 2023. The lease requires us to pay certain operating expenses.

In March 2021, we executed a lease to rent approximately 27,000 square feet of a warehouse in Bothell, Washington, which we classified as an operating lease upon commencement during the year ended December 31, 2021. Rent obligations commenced in October 2021 and the lease expires October 2031, subject to an early termination option after the seventh year and an option to twice extend the lease for five years. The lease requires us to pay certain operating expenses. Furthermore, the landlord agreed to fund $1.2 million in improvements in connection with this lease.

As of December 31, 2022, we were not party to any finance leases. Our leases have remaining terms ranging from 1.0 year to 10.7 years and include options to extend certain of the leases up to 10.0 years and terminate certain of the leases after 3.0 years of leasing. We adjust lease terms for these options only when it is reasonably certain we will exercise these options. As of December 31, 2022, it was reasonably certain that we would exercise our early termination right for one of our leases in 2023.
