Commitments And Contingencies [Abstract]

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Leases

Certain of the operations of the Company are conducted on leased premises. 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 fiscal year 2028. 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 fiscal 2022. At September 1, 2018, approximate minimum annual rentals on all such leases are as follows:



Fiscal Year	Total Rental Payments
2019	$	14,687
2020		9,337
2021		6,815
2022		4,256
2023		2,824
Thereafter		5,602
Total	$	43,521

Total rental expense (exclusive of real estate taxes, insurance and other operating costs) for all operating leases for fiscal years 2018, 2017 and 2016 was approximately $12,477, $12,541 and $13,428, respectively. This included rent expense of approximately $1,044 for fiscal year 2016 for a related party lease. As a result of the purchase of our Atlanta CFC, which was previously leased with a related party, rental expense was partially offset by the release of a deferred rent liability during fiscal 2016. See Note 1 “Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for more information about this transaction.
