Operating Leases
The Company leases boutique space and office space under operating leases expiring in various years through the fiscal year ending 2023. Certain of the leases provide that the Company may cancel the lease, with penalties as defined in the lease, if the Company’s boutique sales at that location fall below an established level. Certain leases provide for additional rent payments to be made when sales exceed a base amount. Certain operating leases provide for renewal options for periods from three to five years at their fair rental value at the time of renewal.
Minimum future rental payments under non-cancellable operating leases as of October 27, 2012, are approximately as follows:
