Commitments and Contingencies

We have operating lease agreements for retail space, restaurants, warehouses and sales and administrative offices as well as equipment with varying terms. Total rent expense, which includes minimum and contingent rent expense incurred under all leases was $82.6 million, $72.8 million and $66.0 million in Fiscal 2015, Fiscal 2014 and Fiscal 2013, respectively. Most leases provide for payments of real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses applicable to the property and most retail leases provide for contingent rent based on retail sales, which are included in total rent expense above. These payments for real estate taxes, insurance, other operating expenses and contingent percentage rent are included in rent expense above, but are generally not included in the aggregate minimum rental commitments below, as, in some cases, the amounts payable in future periods are not quantified in the lease agreement and are dependent on future events. The total amount of such charges included in total rent expense above were $22.1 million, $19.3 million and $16.7 million in Fiscal 2015, Fiscal 2014 and Fiscal 2013, respectively, which includes $1.0 million, $0.9 million and $0.6 million of contingent percentage rent during Fiscal 2015, Fiscal 2014 and Fiscal 2013, respectively.

As of January 30, 2016, the aggregate minimum base rental commitments for all non-cancelable operating real property leases with original terms in excess of one year are $64.0 million, $62.3 million, $55.7 million, $51.9 million, $50.0 million and $193.3 million for each of the next five years and thereafter.

As of January 30, 2016, we are also obligated under certain apparel license and design agreements to make future minimum royalty and advertising payments of $6.0 million, $4.7 million and $0.1 million for Fiscal 2016, Fiscal 2017 and Fiscal 2018, respectively, and none thereafter. These amounts do not include amounts, if any, that exceed the minimums required pursuant to the agreements.

During the 1990s, we discovered the presence of hazardous waste on one of our properties. We believe that remedial action will be required, including continued investigation, monitoring and treatment of groundwater and soil, although the timing of such remedial action is uncertain. As of January 30, 2016 and January 31, 2015, the reserve for the remediation of this site was $1.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively, which is included in other non-current liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. The amount recorded represents our estimate of the costs, on an undiscounted basis, to clean up the site, based on currently available information. This estimate may change in future periods as more information on the remediation activities required and timing of those activities become known. No material amounts related to this reserve were recorded in the statements of operations in Fiscal 2015, Fiscal 2014 or Fiscal 2013.
