Item 2. Properties.
Our corporate headquarters are located in Montrouge, France. Our principal offices occupy a 4,470 square meter facility, pursuant to a lease agreement dated March 3, 2015 which expires March 8, 2024.
Our primary U.S. office is located in Summit, New Jersey. In September 2016, we entered into a lease for a commercial facility of 8,919 square feet in Summit, New Jersey, which was intended to support the launch and commercialization of Viaskin Peanut in North America, if the appropriate regulatory approvals were received. In July 2018, we entered into a lease for an additional 12,629 square feet in the same building and made both leases co-terminus on July 10, 2028. This lease included extension options of two five-year periods.
In light of our global restructuring and the current stage of regulatory interactions regarding Viaskin Peanut, the company entered into a termination agreement for its U.S. office. The agreement provided for the termination of the lease effective on January 31, 2022, in exchange for a one-time lump sum early termination fee.
We also have facilities in North America that were initially intended to support our U.S. subsidiary as well as future commercialization needs. We lease 3,780 square feet of office space in Tower 49, New York, New York. This lease is for a period of 65 months and expires on February 25, 2023. In light of our global restructuring, the current stage of regulatory interactions regarding Viaskin Peanut, and the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, we entered into a sublease agreement of this office space in June 2021.
We consider our facilities to be suitable and adequate for the management and operation of our business. We believe that suitable additional or alternative space will be available to accommodate our future growth.
