Leases

Certain of the operations of the Company are conducted on leased premises, one of which is leased from an entity affiliated with Mitchell Jacobson, the Company’s Chairman, Marjorie Gershwind Fiverson, Mr. Jacobson’s sister, and by their family related trusts. The leases (most of which require the Company to provide for the payment of real estate taxes, insurance and other operating costs) are for varying periods, the longest extending to the year 2030. Some of the leased premises contain multiple renewal provisions, exercisable at the Company’s option, as well as escalation clauses. In addition, the Company is obligated under certain equipment and automobile operating leases, which expire on varying dates through 2019. At August 29, 2015, approximate minimum annual rentals on all such leases are as follows:
