In addition, we own 151 buildings that house our in-market locations in various cities throughout North America.

All other buildings we occupy are leased. On average, leased in-market locations range from approximately 3,000 to 15,000 square feet, with lease terms of up to 144 months (most initial lease terms are for 36 to 60 months).

We currently own land for future distribution center expansion and development. If economic conditions are suitable in the future, we will consider purchasing branch locations to house our older branches. It is anticipated the majority of new branch locations will continue to be leased. It is our policy to negotiate relatively short lease terms to facilitate relocation of particular branch operations, when desirable. Our experience has been that there is sufficient space suitable for our needs and available for leasing.
