COMMITMENTS AND CERTAIN CONTINGENCIES |
11. | COMMITMENTS AND CERTAIN CONTINGENCIES
Lease Commitments We have operating leases primarily for facilities, land, data centers and vehicles. As of May 31, 2019, future minimum annual operating lease payments and future minimum payments to be received from non-cancelable subleases were as follows:
(in millions) |  |  |  |
Fiscal 2020 |  | $ | 658 |
Fiscal 2021 |  |  | 538 |
Fiscal 2022 |  |  | 425 |
Fiscal 2023 |  |  | 262 |
Fiscal 2024 |  |  | 165 |
Thereafter |  |  | 333 |
Future minimum operating lease payments |  |  | 2,381 |
Less: minimum payments to be received from non-cancelable subleases |  |  | (33 | )
Total future minimum operating lease payments, net |  | $ | 2,348 |
Lease commitments included future minimum rent payments for facilities that we have vacated pursuant to our restructuring and merger integration activities, as discussed in Note 8. We have approximately $58 million in facility obligations, net of estimated sublease income and other costs, in accrued restructuring for these locations in our consolidated balance sheet at May 31, 2019. Rent expense was $665 million, $618 million and $501 million for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively, net of sublease income of approximately $16 million, $20 million and $24 million for fiscal 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. Certain lease agreements contain renewal options providing for extensions of the lease terms. Unconditional Obligations In the ordinary course of business, we enter into certain unconditional purchase obligations with our suppliers, which are agreements that are enforceable and legally binding and specify terms, including: fixed or minimum quantities to be purchased; fixed, minimum or variable price provisions; and the approximate timing of the payment. We utilize several external manufacturers to manufacture sub-assemblies for our hardware products and to perform final assembly and testing of finished hardware products. We also obtain individual components for our hardware products from a variety of individual suppliers based on projected demand information. Such purchase commitments are based on our forecasted component and manufacturing requirements and typically provide for fulfillment within agreed upon lead-times and/or commercially standard lead-times for the particular part or product and have been included in the amounts below. Routine arrangements for other materials and goods that are not related to our external manufacturers and certain other suppliers and that are entered into in the ordinary course of business are not included in the amounts below, as they are generally entered into in order to secure pricing or other negotiated terms and are difficult to quantify in a meaningful way. As of May 31, 2019, our unconditional purchase and certain other obligations were as follows (in millions):
Fiscal 2020 |  | $ | 661 |
Fiscal 2021 |  |  | 57 |
Fiscal 2022 |  |  | 22 |
Fiscal 2023 |  |  | 23 |
Fiscal 2024 |  |  | 23 |
Thereafter |  |  | 259 |
Total |  | $ | 1,045 |
As described in Notes 7 and 10 above, as of May 31, 2019 we have senior notes and other borrowings of $56.3 billion that mature at various future dates and derivative financial instruments outstanding that we leverage to manage certain risks and exposures. Guarantees Our cloud, license and hardware sales agreements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our products infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnifications and have not accrued any material liabilities related to such obligations in our consolidated financial statements. Certain of our sales agreements also include provisions indemnifying customers against liabilities in the event we breach confidentiality or service level requirements. It is not possible to determine the maximum potential amount under these indemnification agreements due to our limited and infrequent history of prior indemnification claims and the unique facts and circumstances involved in each particular agreement. Our Oracle Cloud Services agreements generally include a warranty that the cloud services will be performed in all material respects as defined in the agreement during the service period. Our license and hardware agreements also generally include a warranty that our products will substantially operate as described in the applicable program documentation for a period of one year after delivery. We also warrant that services we perform will be provided in a manner consistent with industry standards for a period of 90 days from performance of the services. We occasionally are required, for various reasons, to enter into financial guarantees with third parties in the ordinary course of our business including, among others, guarantees related to taxes, import licenses and letters of credit on behalf of parties with whom we conduct business. Such agreements have not had a material effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows. In connection with certain litigation, we posted certain court-mandated surety bonds with a court and entered into related indemnification agreements with each of the surety bond issuing companies. Additional information is provided in Note 17 below.
