COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES	17 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Effective April 4, 2011, the Company entered into a seven-year sub-sublease agreement for additional office space in New York, New York. The term of the sub-sublease commenced June 1, 2011, with a free base rental period until October 31, 2011. Following the expiration of the free base rental period, the monthly base rental payments were $82 per month until May 31, 2015 and thereafter will be $90 per month until the end of the seven-year term. Pursuant to the sub-sublease agreement, the sublessor was obligated to contribute $472 toward the cost of the Company’s alterations to the sub-subleased office space. The Company has also entered into a direct lease with the over-landlord of such office space that will commence immediately upon the expiration of such sub-sublease agreement, for a term covering the period from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2025; the direct lease provides for a free base rental period from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018. Following the expiration of the free base rental period, the monthly base rental payments will be $186 per month from October 1, 2018 to April 30, 2023 and $204 per month from May 1, 2023 to September 30, 2025. For accounting purposes, the sub-sublease agreement and direct lease agreement with the landlord constitutes one lease agreement. As a result of the straight-line rent calculation generated by the free rent period and the tenant work credit, the monthly straight-line rental expense for the term of the entire lease from June 1, 2011 to September 30, 2025 was $130 prior to the Effective Date. On the Effective Date, a revised straight-line rent calculation was completed as part of fresh-start reporting. The revised monthly straight-line rental expense for the remaining term of the lease from the Effective Date to September 30, 2025 is $150. The Company had a long-term lease obligation at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 of $1,509 and $1,149, respectively. Rent expense pertaining to this lease for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 was $452 and $452, respectively, and $904 and $904 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively during both periods. Future minimum rental payments on the above lease for the next five years and thereafter are as follows: $538 for the remainder of 2016, $1,076 for 2017, $916 for 2018, $2,230 annually for 2019 and 2020 and a total of $11,130 for the remaining term of the lease. During the beginning of 2009, the Genco Cavalier, a 2007-built Supramax vessel, was on charter to Samsun when Samsun filed for the equivalent of bankruptcy protection in South Korea, otherwise refered to as a rehabilitation application. On July 3, 2015, Samsun filed for rehabilitation proceedings for the second time with the South Korean courts due to financial distress. On April 8, 2016, the revised rehabilitation plan was approved by the South Korean court whereby 26% of the remainder of the $3,979 unpaid cash claim settlement from the prior rehabilitation plan, or $1,035, will be settled pursuant to a payment plan over the next ten-year period. The remaining 74% of the claim will be converted to Samsun Shares.
