New office lease

In June 2022, we entered into an agreement to lease approximately 6,000 square feet of office space in Minneapolis, Minnesota, near our former office space. The lease commencement date was September 1, 2022, has a term of 65 months expiring on January 31, 2028 and includes an incentive of five months of full rent abatement. This incentive is subject to repayment if we default in performance of any material obligations under the lease prior to the 48^th month of the lease and the landlord terminates the lease. Upon lease commencement, the Company recognized an operating lease right-of-use asset and a corresponding operating lease obligation of $446,000, respectively.

Our operating lease costs were $78,000 and $65,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our variable lease costs were $25,000 and $56,000 for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Variable lease costs consist primarily of common area maintenance costs, insurance and taxes which are paid based upon actual costs incurred by the lessor.

Maturities of our operating lease obligation are as follows as of December 31, 2022 (in thousands):

Former office lease

We leased certain office space under a non-cancelable operating lease that terminated on August 31, 2022, and we did not renew it. This lease included lease (e.g., fixed rent) and non-lease components (e.g., common-area and other maintenance costs). The right-of-use asset for this lease was fully amortized as of August 31, 2022.
