We have a non-cancelable operating lease for our primary operating facility with a partnership in which Steven L. Berman, our Executive Chairman, and his family members, are partners. Based upon the terms of the lease, payments will be $1.6 million in fiscal 2019 and were $1.6 million in fiscal 2018. This lease will expire on December 31, 2022. The right-of-use asset and total lease liabilities related to this lease were both $5.6 million as of March 30, 2019. In the opinion of our Audit Committee, the terms and rates of this lease are no less favorable than those which could have been obtained from an unaffiliated party when the lease was renewed during November 2016.

Additionally, we have a non-cancelable operating lease for our Canadian operating facility from a corporation of which an employee, who is also the former owner of an acquired entity, and his family members are owners. Based upon the terms of the lease, payments will be $0.2 million in fiscal 2019 and were $0.5 million in fiscal 2018. This lease expired on April 30, 2019.

We are a partner in a joint venture with one of our suppliers and own minority interests in two other suppliers. Each of these investments is accounted for according to the equity method.
