Leases

We lease retail space under operating leases with terms ranging from five to fifteen years, with certain leases containing renewal options. Renewal options are typically for five years and contain terms similar to those of the original lease. Lease agreements generally provide for minimum rentals. Some leases also include additional contingent rental amounts based upon specified percentages of sales above predetermined levels. Rental costs associated with operating leases that are incurred during a construction period are recognized as rental expense. Rental expense for operating leases is comprised of the following:
