7. Operating Leases

The Company leases office and research space in Rockville, Maryland under an operating lease with a term through October 31, 2023 (as amended to date, the Lease) that is subject to annual rent increases. The Company has the right to sublease or assign all or a portion of the premises, subject to the conditions set forth in the Lease. The Lease may be terminated early by either the landlord or the Company in certain circumstances.  In connection with the Lease, the Company received rent abatement as a lease incentive. The annual rent increases and rent abatement have been recognized as deferred rent that is being adjusted on a straight-line basis over the term of the Lease.

In March 2016, the Company amended the Lease (the Lease Amendment) to lease additional space beginning on June 1, 2016. In addition to the other terms of the Lease, the Lease Amendment provided for a tenant improvement allowance reflected in the Company’s 2016 financial statements as an increase in capitalized leasehold improvements as incurred and an increase in deferred rent. In May 2016, the Company also paid a security deposit of $52,320 to be held until the expiration or termination of the Company’s obligations under the Lease, which comprises the deposits balance on the balance sheets. The term of the Lease Amendment for the additional space continues through October 31, 2023, the same date as for the premises originally leased under the Lease, subject to the Company’s renewal option set forth in the Lease. The Company also has a one-time option to terminate the Lease effective as of October 31, 2020.

Deferred rent related to the Lease was $710,394 and $785,031 at December 31, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. Total rent expense under the Company’s leases was $896,758,  $890,170 and $784,739 for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

The following table presents the future minimum lease payments as of December 31, 2018 under the Lease:
