Litigation, Claims and Assessments Following the May 18, 2020 resignation (effective June 1, 2020) of Jennifer Simpson, the Company’s former President and Chief Executive Officer, and Barbra Keck, the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer (the “Claimants”), it became evident that there was a dispute regarding the Company’s compensation obligations to the Claimants. In a letter dated, June 29, 2020, an attorney representing the Claimants made certain claims and threatened litigation against the Company. On or about July 27, 2020, the Claimants filed a statement of claim with the American Arbitration Association against the Company. The Claimants seek payment of certain purported unpaid compensation amounts claimed to be due to them, in an approximate amount of $1,140 in the aggregate, as well as unspecified statutory damages under New York Labor Law, attorneys’ fees and costs, and statutory interest. The Company intends to defend the claims vigorously. The arbitrator had scheduled hearings to take place during the week of May 17, 2021. However, the Claimants and the Company recently agreed to participate in non-binding mediation of their dispute before a neutral mediator, which resulted in the arbitration proceedings being placed in abeyance pending the outcome of the mediation process. At this time, the mediation process between the Claimants and the Company is ongoing. As of December 31, 2020, the Company has accrued for the full purported unpaid compensation amounts. Officer Appointment – Chief Executive Officer On October 1, 2020, Gerard Michel was appointed as the Company’s new Chief Executive Officer and a Class I Director. Pursuant to an employment agreement dated as of August 31, 2020 between the Company and Mr. Michel (the “Employment Agreement”), the term of Mr. Michel’s employment began on October 1, 2020. Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Michel will receive an annual base salary of $450 subject to annual review by the Board’s Compensation and Stock Option Committee and will be eligible to participate in the Company’s annual incentive plan with a target annual cash bonus equal to 50% of his then-current base salary. In addition, the Company will reimburse Mr. Michel up to $6.5 per month to cover his temporary expenses incurred in connection with traveling to and living in the New York City tristate area to work onsite at the Company’s principal corporate office for the initial eighteen (18) months of his employment. Pursuant to the Employment Agreement, on October 1, 2020, the Company granted stock options to Mr. Michel. See Note 11 for additional details. If Mr. Michel resigns his at-will employment for Good Reason, (as defined in the Employment Agreement), or the Company terminates Mr. Michel’s employment other than for Cause, (as defined in the Employment Agreement) , then Mr. Michel shall be entitled to his accrued and unpaid compensation and, subject to him entering into and not revoking a general release of claims in favor of the Company and fully complying with the terms of an Employee Confidentiality, Invention Assignment and Restrictive Covenants Agreement (the “Restrictive Covenants Agreement”), Mr. Michel shall also be entitled to: (a) a severance payment equal in the aggregate to twelve (12) months of his annual base salary at the time of termination, payable in twelve (12) equal monthly installments; and (b) specified continuing health plan benefits until the earlier of (i) the twelve (12) month anniversary of his termination date, (ii) the last day he’s eligible for coverage pursuant to COBRA or (iii) the date on which he becomes eligible for similar coverage from another employer. Operating Leases Pursuant to a 2014 sublease agreement (the “2014 Sublease”) and a 2015 sublease agreement (the “2015 Sublease”) the Company subleased portions of its leased premises in Dublin, Ireland to a sublessee. On May 15, 2020, the Company and its sublessee entered into amendments to the 2014 Sublease and the 2015 Sublease pursuant to which (i) the 2014 Sublease and 2015 Sublease were extended from May 31, 2020 to August 2, 2021, (ii) effective July 1, 2020, the leased premises under the 2015 Sublease would be expanded to include an additional 4,999 square feet of space, and (iii) effective July 1, 2020, the rent under the 2015 Sublease would increase from approximately $14.6 per month to $20.6 per month. The Company analyzed the terms of the amended 2014 Sublease and 2015 Sublease and determined that its ROU asset for the master operating lease was not impaired as a result of the amendments. On June 25, 2020, the Company entered into a sub-lease agreement (the “2021 Sub-Lease”) with its current sublessee under the 2014 Sublease and 2015 Sublease pursuant to which, effective August 2, 2021, the current sublessee will become the lessee and the Company will sub-lease its portion of the premises from the current sublessee. The Company’s rent under the 2021 Sub-Lease will be approximately $3.7 per month for a term of five years. Aside from the 2021 Sub-Lease, the Company has no operating or financing leases that have not yet commenced. On September 22, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to a sub-lease agreement executed in March 2016 for approximately 6,877 square feet of office space at 1633 Broadway, New York, NY. The term of the sub-lease agreement began in April 2016 and, pursuant to the amendment, is extended through February 2023 for total annual base rent of $405.7. Future minimum lease payments, net of receipts due under the terms of subleases, under all operating leases at December 31, 2020 are as follows:
|  | Future Lease Payments |
2021 |  |  | 419 |
2022 |  |  | 406 |
2023 |  |  | 68 |
For the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 rent expense, net of receipts under the terms of subleases, totaled approximately $423 and $529, respectively. Letters of Credit Under the terms of a sub-lease agreement for office space at 1633 Broadway, New York, NY, the Company is required to maintain a letter of credit in the amount of $131, which will expire with the sublease in February 2023.
