Discontinued Operations
On May 4, 2015, the Company's board of directors directed management to pursue a plan to sell the Service Business to Accuratus, representing a strategic shift in the Company's operations. The Company met the relevant criteria for reporting the Service Business as held for sale and in discontinued operations in the second quarter of 2015, pursuant to FASB ASC 205-20, Presentation of Financial Statements-Discontinued Operations, and FASB ASC 360, Property, Plant, and Equipment. The Company assessed the Services Business net asset group for impairment pursuant to FASB Topic 360 and recorded a $1,350 impairment charge on classification of property and equipment assets as held for sale in the quarterly period ended June 30, 2015. The fair value measurement used to determine the impairment charge has been described in Note 11.
Sale of the Services Business
On July 21, 2015, the Company completed the sale of the Services Business to Accuratus pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, with an effective date of July 17, 2015 for an aggregate purchase price of $3,875, subject to a working capital adjustment of $824, which reduced the proceeds at closing. In addition, a portion of the consideration payable at closing equal to $500 was withheld and is subject to an escrow for a period of 12 months from the date of closing to satisfy indemnification obligations of the Company in connection with breaches of any representation and warranties and other customary obligations under the terms of the Purchase Agreement. The escrow funds were received in full on July 19, 2016 in accordance with the Purchase Agreement. The net cash consideration received by the Company upon closing in July 2015 was $2,549, after adjusting for the items described above and a nominal escrow fee. Additionally, in May 2014, the Company paid a $500 success fee to Burrill Securities, an affiliate of Burrill Biotechnology Capital Fund, L.P., a previous holder of the Company’s capital stock, pursuant to an engagement letter. The fee was recognized as general and administrative expense in the accompanying statements of operations. 
The following table describes the net proceeds from the sale and the assets and liabilities sold, net of impairment charges and loss on disposal:

Continuing Involvement with Accuratus
The Company and Accuratus also entered into the Services Agreement pursuant to which Accuratus provided the Company with certain contract research and development services for 18 months (the "Initial Term") following the closing of the sale of the Services Business for a minimum purchase obligation of at least $3,300 due from the Company over the Initial Term of the Services Agreement and was satisfied at December 31, 2016. On January 17, 2017, the Services Agreement was amended to extend the Initial Term to December 31, 2018. The amendment did not include any further minimum purchase obligation due from the Company. The purpose of the Services Agreement is to replace services that were previously provided internally by employees of the Company prior to the sale of the Services Business. The employees performing these services became employees of Accuratus in connection with this sale transaction.
During the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company recognized $3,131 of expense for services provided by Accuratus under the Services Agreement, which is included in research and development expense in the accompanying audited statements of operations.
