Most of our stores are located in leased premises. Individual store leases vary as to their terms,
rental provisions and expiration dates. Many stores are subject to build-to-suit arrangements with
landlords, which typically carry a primary lease term of 10-15 years with multiple renewal options. We
also have stores subject to shorter-term leases and many of these leases have renewal options. In recent
years, an increasing percentage of our new stores have been subject to build-to-suit arrangements.
As of March 1, 2013, we operated eleven distribution centers, as described in the following table:
