In May 2019, the Company entered into a month to month lease agreement for our headquarters. The agreement is for an undefined term and can be cancelled at any time, given one month’s notice by either party. The Company’s monthly rent expense associated with this agreement is approximately $1,440. The Company’s month to month headquarters lease is in the name of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and the cost is reimbursed monthly.
For the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, rent expense was approximately $17,000, for each year.
Partnership Agreement
In January 2022, the Company entered into a partnership agreement with LIVMOR Inc. (“LIVMOR”) to build a Company-branded version of the LIVMOR’s Halo+ FDA cleared turnkey solution for RPM to connect physicians and patients. As included in the agreement, the Company and LIVMOR have the right to enter into additional agreements as needed in order to further the Company’s development of its products. The agreement with LIVMOR included a commitment in 2022 of $1.0 million.
In August 2022, the Company entered into a supplemental agreement with LIVMOR. The supplemental agreement stated the Company would pay an additional $0.2 million for the source code access under the partnership agreement. Payments totaling $0.2 million have been made by the Company and LIVMOR has delivered to the Company copies of source materials and codes. All licenses granted by LIVMOR will automatically be converted into a non-exclusive and perpetual license and become licenses granted on a royalty-free and fully paid-up basis, in which LIVMOR hereby expressly waives and relinquishes all HeartBeam payment obligations under the initial partnership agreement. Based on management’s review of Topic ASC 805 and 730, it was determined that only the source code and perpetual license were purchased and it was determined there was no alternative future uses, therefore management recorded the expense as research and development expense.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company expensed a total of $1.2 million associated with the LIVMOR agreements, which
has been recognized as R&D expense. In February 2023, the Company acquired LIVMOR’s Halo+™ Atrial Fibrillation Detection System, the world’s first FDA-cleared (K201208) prescription wearable for continuous cardiac rhythm monitoring, comprising of intellectual property, including 3 issued United States patents.
