The Company leases certain of its operating facilities under operating leases which principally expire at various dates through fiscal year 2020. The leases are generally on a net-rent basis, whereby the Company pays taxes, maintenance, insurance and other operating expenses. Management expects that, in the normal course of business, leases that expire will be renewed or replaced by other leases. Total rental expense was $4,298,000 and $4,034,000 for the years ended January 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

At January 31, 2012, minimum rental payment obligations under operating leases were as follows:
