Realignment of Goals and Objectives and New Development Focus |
7. | Realignment of Goals and Objectives and New Development Focus
Following the approval of SUSTOL and consistent with our transition into a commercial-stage biotechnology company, we realigned our goals and objectives and refocused our development efforts to the area of postoperative pain management. On September 30, 2016, the Board of Directors accepted the resignations of three executive officers, and these executive officers and other employees directly affected by the realignment and refocusing were provided with one-time severance payments on termination, continued benefits for a specified period of time and outplacement assistance. The total expense for these activities was $9.4 million, $5.5 million of which is primarily for severance and $3.9 million of which is for non-cash, stock-based compensation expense. The total expense was recognized between September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2018, we had paid all of the cash severance charges. In March 2018, we shut down operations at our Redwood City facility and entered into a sublease agreement for the remainder of the lease term. The fair value of the cease-use liability was calculated using the remaining lease payments, offset by future sublease payments, deferred rent amortization and prepaid rent amounts. In the first quarter of 2018, we recorded expense of $0.5 million to general and administrative expense as a loss on the lease. We have accounted for these expenses in accordance with the FASB ASC Topic 420, Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations.
