Certain of the Company's leases provide for the payment of contingent rentals based on a percentage of sales. Such contingent rentals were not material for fiscal 2016, 2015 and 2014. Substantially all of the Company's store leases have renewal options, some of which may trigger an escalation in rentals.
The Company has future lease commitments for land and buildings for approximately 215 future locations. These lease commitments have lease terms ranging from 10 to 30 years and provide for certain minimum rentals. If executed, payments under operating leases would increase by $34 million for fiscal 2017, based on current cost estimates.
In connection with certain long-term debt issuances, the Company could be liable for early termination payments if certain unlikely events were to occur. At January 31, 2016, the aggregate termination payment would have been $44 million. The arrangement pursuant to which this payment could be made will expire in fiscal 2019.
