The Company leases facilities under long-term operating lease agreements through May 2017. Rent expense was $89,597 and $88,894 for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

The future minimum rental payments to be made under long-term operating leases are as follows:

 

Year ending December 31,: 2013   $ 88,954  
  2014     99,255  
  2015     102,232  
  2016     105,299  
  2017     44,414

The above minimum lease payments reflect the base rent under the lease agreements. However, these base rents can be adjusted each year to reflect the Company’s proportionate share of increases in the building’s operating costs and the Company’s proportionate share of real estate tax increases on the leased property.
