Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

NOTE 15 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

We adopted ASC 842 effective January 1, 2019. Substantially all our operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities represent leases for office space used to conduct our business. Upon adoption, we have recognized a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases that have commenced as of January 1, 2019. The right-of-use assets represent the right to use the leased asset for the lease term. The lease liabilities represent the present value of the lease payments under the lease. The right-of-use asset is initially measured at cost, which primarily comprises the initial amount of the lease liability, plus any initial direct costs incurred, less any lease incentives received. All right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment. The lease liability is initially measured at the present value of the lease payments, discounted using our secured incremental borrowing rate for the same term as the underlying lease because the rates are not implicit in the leases. Some of our leases contain variable lease payments, including payments based on an index or rate. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate in effect at lease commencement. Additional payments based on the change in an index or rate, or payments based on a change in our portion of the operating expenses are recorded as a period expense when incurred. Lease modifications result in remeasurement of the lease liability. Included in lease expense are any variable lease payments incurred in the period that were not included in the initial lease liability.

We lease administrative office space in Boca Raton, Florida pursuant to a non-cancelable operating lease that commenced on July 1, 2013 and originally provided for a 63-month term. On February 18, 2015, we entered into an agreement with the same lessors to lease additional administrative office space in the same location, pursuant to an addendum to such lease. In addition, on April 26, 2016, we entered into an agreement with the same lessors to lease additional administrative office space in the same location. This agreement was effective beginning May 1, 2016 and extended the original expiration of the lease term to October 31, 2021. On October 4, 2016, we entered into an agreement with the same lessors to lease additional administrative office space in the same location, pursuant to an addendum to such lease. This addendum is effective beginning November 1, 2016.

In October 2018, we entered into a lease for new corporate offices in Boca Raton, Florida. The lease includes 56,212 rentable square feet, or the full premises, of which lease on 7,561 square feet has commenced in 2018 and the lease on the remaining 48,651 square feet will commence no earlier than June 1, 2019, or the full premises commencement date. The lease will expire 11 years after full premises commencement date, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the terms of the lease. We have the option to extend the term of the lease for two additional consecutive periods of five years. The extension option is not included in the determination of the lease term as it is not reasonably certain to be exercised. The term of the lease includes escalating rent and free rent periods. We are also responsible for certain other operating costs under the lease, including electricity and utility expenses. In addition, we will be entitled to reimbursement from the landlord of up to $1,800,000 for tenant improvements.
