 rate that considers our credit rating, market conditions and the term of the lease at the lease commencement date. We consider a termination or renewal option in the determination of the lease term when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Leases with an initial expected term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the consolidated balance sheets and the related lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. We have elected to include non-lease components, such as common-area maintenance costs, with lease payments for the purpose of calculating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities, to the extent that they are fixed. Non-lease components that are not fixed are expensed as incurred as variable lease payments. We record operating lease expense using the straight-line method within General and administrative expense and/or Research and development expense dependent upon the individual leased assets. Finance lease expense is recognized as amortization expense within Depreciation and amortization expense, and interest expense within Interest expense, net. For leases with step rent provisions whereby the rental payments increase over the life of the lease, and for leases with rent-free periods, we recognize expense on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term, based on the total minimum lease payments to be made or lease receipts expected to be received. Operating and finance lease assets are reviewed for impairment based on an ongoing review of circumstances that indicate the assets may no longer be recoverable, such as closures of office spaces or data centers, and leased assets that are no longer being utilized in current operations, and other factors. When necessary, we calculate operating and finance lease impairments using a discount rate to calculate the present value of estimated subtenant rentals that could be reasonably obtained for the property or asset, if allowed by the lease. Lease impairment charges for properties or assets no longer used in operations are recorded as a component of Restructuring, acquisition and integration related expenses or General and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations, dependent upon the qualitative factors surrounding the impairment. 77

The calculation of lease impairment charges may require significant judgments and estimates, including estimated subtenant rentals, discount rates and future cash flows based on our experience and knowledge of the market in which the property or asset is located, previous efforts to dispose of similar assets and the assessment of existing market conditions. Impairments are recognized as a reduction of the carrying value of the right-of-use asset and finance lease assets. Refer to Note 7—Leases for additional information.
