14. LEASES

The Company has land, warehouse and office space, and equipment leases which are classified as either operating or financing obligations. The Company’s land lease consists of a long-term lease with the City of San Diego covering approximately 190 acres, including approximately 17 acres of water in Mission Bay Park, California (the “Premises”). Under the terms of the lease, the Premises must be used as a marine park facility and related uses. In addition, the Company may not operate another marine park facility within a radius of 560 miles from the City of San Diego. The annual rent under the lease is variable and calculated on the basis of a specified percentage of the Company’s gross income from the Premises, or the minimum yearly rent, whichever is greater. The current lease term for the Premises ends in June 2048 with a corresponding lease liability being amortized using an estimated incremental borrowing rate of 8.2%.  The minimum yearly rent is adjusted every three years to an amount equal to 80% of the average accounting year rent actually paid for the three previous years. The minimum yearly rent through December 31, 2019 was approximately $10.4 million. On January 1, 2020, the minimum annual rent payment was recalculated in accordance with the lease agreement and remained unchanged.  Actual payments may vary from the annual straight-line minimum base rent based on a shift of seasonal performance results. Rent payments related to the Premises for the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 were approximately $10.5 million, $11.2 million and $10.5 million, respectively. Upon adoption of ASC 842, the Company also reclassified a favorable lease asset net balance of approximately $14.0 million related to the Premises from other intangible assets, net, to right of use assets-operating in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019.

The tables below present the lease balances and their classification in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2019 and 2018:
