Leases – The Company leases retail stores, distribution and office facilities and certain equipment. Original non-cancelable lease terms range from three to ten years and leases generally contain renewal options for additional years. Total rent expense under operating leases was $51,580 and $46,550 for the 13 weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015, respectively. Total rent expense under operating leases was $150,424 and $134,851 for the 39 weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015, respectively.

General litigation – The Company is involved in various legal proceedings that are incidental to the conduct of our business, including three putative employment class action lawsuits in California, each of which has settled. One case received final court approval and the remaining two cases are in the process of obtaining court approval. In the opinion of management, the amount of any liability with respect to these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, consolidated financial position or liquidity.
