Commitments and Contingencies | 11. Commitments and Contingencies Guarantees and Indemnifications — In the ordinary course of its business, the Company makes certain indemnities, commitments and guarantees under which it may be required to make payments in relation to certain transactions. The Company, as permitted under Delaware law and in accordance with its Bylaws, indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences, subject to certain limits, while the officer or director is or was serving at the Company’s request in such capacity. The term of the indemnification period is for the officer’s or director’s lifetime. The maximum amount of potential future indemnification is unlimited; however, the Company has a director and officer insurance policy that may enable it to recover a portion of any future amounts paid. The Company believes the fair value of these indemnification agreements is minimal. The Company has not recorded any liability for these indemnities in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. However, the Company accrues for losses for any known contingent liability, including those that may arise from indemnification provisions, when future payment is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. No such losses have been recorded to date. Litigation — The Company is subject to legal proceedings and claims which arise in the ordinary course of its business. As of June 30, 2017, the Company believes that the final disposition of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company and no accrual has been recorded. The Company maintains liability insurance coverage to protect the Company’s assets from losses arising out of or involving activities associated with ongoing and normal business operations. The Company records a provision for a liability when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company’s policy is to accrue for legal expenses in connection with legal proceedings and claims as they are incurred. Following the public announcement of Sanofi’s election to terminate the Sanofi License Agreement and the subsequent decline in the Company’s stock price, two motions were submitted to the district court at Tel Aviv, Economic Department for the certification of a class action against MannKind and certain of its officers and directors. In general, the complaints alleged that MannKind and certain of its officers and directors violated Israeli and U.S. securities laws by making materially false and misleading statements regarding the prospects for Afrezza, thereby artificially inflating the price of its common stock. The plaintiffs are seeking monetary damages. In November 2016, the district court dismissed one of the actions without prejudice. In the remaining action, the district court has been asked to determine whether Israeli or U.S. law is applicable before the case can be certified as a class action but has not yet ruled on this issue. The Company will vigorously defend against the claims advanced. Contingencies — In connection with the Facility Agreement, on July 1, 2013, the Company also entered into a the Milestone Agreement with the Milestone Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company sold the Milestone Purchasers the Milestone Rights to receive payments up to $90.0 million upon the occurrence of specified strategic and sales milestones, including the first commercial sale of an Afrezza product in the United States and the achievement of specified net sales figures (see Note 6 – Borrowings). Commitments — On July 31, 2014, the Company entered into a supply agreement (the “Insulin Supply Agreement”) with Amphastar France Pharmaceuticals S.A.S., a French corporation (“Amphastar”), pursuant to which Amphastar manufactures for and supplies to the Company certain quantities of recombinant human insulin for use in Afrezza. Under the terms of the Insulin Supply Agreement, Amphastar is responsible for manufacturing the insulin in accordance with the Company’s specifications and agreed-upon quality standards. On November 9, 2016, the supply agreement with Amphastar was amended to extend the term over which the Company is required to purchase insulin, without reducing the total amount of insulin to be purchased. Under the amendment, annual minimum quantities of insulin to be purchased for calendar years 2017 through 2023 total an aggregate purchase price of €93.0 million at June 30, 2017. The Insulin Supply Agreement specifies that Amphastar will be deemed to have satisfied its obligations with respect to quantity, if the actual quantity supplied is within plus or minus ten percent (+/- 10%) of the quantity set forth in the applicable purchase order. In addition, the aggregate cancellation fees that the Company would incur in the event that certain insulin quantities are not purchased was lowered from $5.3 million for the period October 1, 2016 through 2018 to $3.4 million over the same period. The Company has not yet purchased any insulin under the amended agreement in 2017. The annual purchase requirements under the contract are as follows:
2017 |  | € | 2.7 million |
2018 |  | € | 8.9 million |
2019 |  | € | 11.6 million |
2020 |  | € | 15.5 million |
2021 |  | € | 15.5 million |
2022 |  | € | 19.4 million |
2023 |  | € | 19.4 million |
Unless earlier terminated, the term of the Insulin Supply Agreement with Amphastar expires on December 31, 2023 and can be renewed for additional, successive two year terms upon 12 months’ written notice given prior to the end of the initial term or any additional two year term. The Company and Amphastar each have normal and customary termination rights, including termination for material breach that is not cured within a specific time frame or in the event of liquidation, bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party. In addition, the Company may terminate the Insulin Supply Agreement upon two years’ prior written notice to Amphastar without cause or upon 30 days’ prior written notice to Amphastar if a controlling regulatory authority withdraws approval for Afrezza, provided, however, in the event of a termination pursuant to either of the latter two scenarios, the provisions of the Insulin Supply Agreement require the Company to pay the full amount of all unpaid purchase commitments due over the initial term within 60 calendar days of the effective date of such termination. At June 30, 2017, the Company has other firm commitments with suppliers for an aggregate of $0.9 million. Office Lease — On May 5, 2017, the Company executed an office lease with Russell Ranch Road II LLC to lease office space for the Company’s corporate headquarters in Westlake Village, California. The office lease commences on the earlier of (i) the date the Company commences business from the leased space or (ii) the later of the date of substantial completion of the build-out by the landlord or August 1, 2017. The lease requires monthly payments of $40,951, increased by 3% annually, plus the estimated cost of maintaining the property by the landlord. The lease expires 65 months from the commencement date and provides the Company with a five year renewal option. Future minimum lease payments are as follows:
2017 |  | $ | 41,000 |
2018 |  |  | 457,000 |
2019 |  |  | 512,000 |
2020 |  |  | 528,000 |
2021 |  |  | 544,000 |
Thereafter |  |  | 560,000 |
|  | $ | 2,642,000 |
