We have a non-cancelable operating lease for our primary operating facility with a partnership in which Steven L. Berman, our Executive Chairman, and his family members, are partners. Based upon the terms of the lease, payments will be $1.6 million in fiscal 2018 and were $1.6 million in fiscal 2017. This lease will expire on December 31, 2022. In the opinion of our Audit Committee, the terms and rates of this lease are no less favorable than those which could have been obtained from an unaffiliated party when the lease was renewed during November 2016.

Additionally, we have a non-cancelable operating lease for our Canadian operating facility from a corporation of which an employee, who is also the former owner of MAS, and his family members are owners. Based upon the terms of the lease, payments will be $0.5 million in fiscal 2018 and were $0.1 million in fiscal 2017. This lease will expire on October 31, 2018.

We are a partner in a joint venture with one of our suppliers and own minority interests in two other suppliers. Each of these investments is accounted for according to the equity method. In June, 2018 we acquired the remaining outstanding shares of a previously unconsolidated entity. The estimated fair value of the net assets acquired was less than our prior investment in the entity. As a result, we recorded an impairment charge of $1.1 million which is included within Selling, General, and Administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statement of Income during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 30, 2018.
