 Lease Amendment were not renewed and, as a result, terminated in December 2023 (see Note 19, Commitments and Contingencies: Leases ).

In general, the Company determines if a contract, at its inception, is a lease or contains a lease based on whether the contract conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant, or equipment (an identified asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration. To determine whether a contract conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time, the Company assesses whether, throughout the period of use, it has both the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset, and the right to direct the use of the identified asset. Both of these criteria were met by the Stamford Lease, the Lease Amendment, and the New Lease.

The Company accounted for the terms and conditions of the Lease Amendment as a lease modification because it granted an additional right-of-use to an underlying asset (the new additional space). A lease modification can result in either a new lease that is accounted for separately from the original lease or as a single modified lease. The Lease Amendment was accounted for separately from the original Stamford Lease because the Lease Amendment granted the right-of-use to additional space and the price of the additional right-of-use was commensurate with its standalone price as no discounts were provided to the Company. Furthermore, there were no material changes to the original Stamford Lease.

The Stamford Lease, the Lease Amendment and the New Lease contained both a lease and non-lease component which were accounted for separately. The Company allocated the consideration to the lease and the non-lease component on a relative standalone price basis.

Since the Stamford Lease and Lease Amendment did not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company used an annual incremental borrowing rate of 7% for each, which is based on the rate that the Company could obtain in the market for a fully collateralized loan equal to the term of the Stamford Lease and the Lease Amendment. Similarly, since the New Lease also did not provide an implicit interest rate, the Company used an incremental borrowing rate equal to the 3-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate, or SOFR, plus 7.75% per annum subject to a 3-month SOFR floor of 2.75%, which was based on the rate that the Company could obtain in the market for a fully collateralized loan equal to the term of the New Lease, or 12.83%.

The Company determines the amount of
