NOTE 15 — LEASES

The Company is party to various lease agreements for real estate and transportation equipment. For each lease agreement, the Company determines its lease term as the non-cancellable period of the lease and includes options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that it will exercise that option. The Company also assesses whether each lease is an operating or finance lease at the lease commencement date. Rent expense of operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and includes scheduled rent increases as well as amortization of tenant improvement allowances.

Operating Leases

As of September 30, 2021, the Company is a tenant under various operating leases related to certain of its hubs, vending machines, IRCs, storage, parking and corporate offices. The initial terms expire at various dates between 2021 and 2032. Many of the leases include one or more renewal options ranging from one to twenty years and some contain purchase options.

In September 2021, the Company entered into a lease for additional corporate office space in Atlanta, Georgia. The lessor granted the Company access to a portion of the space during September 2021, and the landlord is expected to deliver access to the remainder of the space by February 2022. The initial lease term is for approximately 10 years with one option to renew the lease through May 1, 2037. The undiscounted future minimum lease payments for the portion of the lease that has not yet commenced is approximately $162 million over the initial term.

Also in September 2021, the Company entered into a lease for additional corporate office space in Los Angeles, California, which has not yet commenced. The initial lease term is for approximately 12 years with two five-year renewal options. The lease has total undiscounted future minimum lease payments of approximately $51 million over the initial lease term. Payments
will commence when the Company gains beneficial access to the leased asset. The commencement date is expected to occur in 2022.

The Company's operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, other current liabilities, and operating lease liabilities on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Refer to Note 6 — Related Party Transactions for further discussion of operating leases with related parties.

Finance Leases

The Company has finance leases for certain equipment in its transportation fleet. The leases have initial terms of two to five years, some of which include extension options for up to four additional years, and require monthly payments.
