Litigation
In the ordinary course of business, from time to time, we may be subject to legal claims and administrative proceedings. As of June 30, 2020, we are not subject to any litigation that we believe could have, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, liquidity or cash flows.
Operating Lease Commitments
We are liable under various operating leases for: (i) land at the Cascata golf course, which expires in 2038 and (ii) offices in New Orleans, LA and New York, NY, which expire in 2020 and 2030, respectively. The weighted average remaining lease term as of June 30, 2020 under our operating leases was 15.9 years. Our Cascata ground lease has three 10-year extension options. The rent of such options would be the in-place rent at the time of renewal.
Total rental expense, included in golf operations and general and administrative expenses in our Statement of Operations and contractual rent expense under these agreements were as follows:

Contractual rent$345  $318  $668  $636  
On May 10, 2019 we entered into a lease agreement for new office space in New York, NY for our corporate headquarters. The lease has a 10-year term, with one 5-year extension option and requires a fixed annual rent of $0.9 million. We determined the lease was an operating lease and the discount rate for the lease was determined to be 5.3% based on the yield of our current secured borrowings, adjusted to match borrowings of similar terms.
On January 1, 2019, upon adoption of ASC 842, we recorded an $11.1 million right of use asset and a corresponding lease liability within Other assets and Other liabilities, respectively, on our Balance Sheet, related to the ground lease of the land at the Cascata Golf Course. The discount rate for the lease was determined to be 5.5% and was based on the yield of our current secured borrowings, adjusted to match borrowings of similar terms.
As of June 30, 2020, we have a $17.8 million right of use asset and corresponding lease liability recorded in Other assets and Other liabilities, respectively, on our Balance Sheet related to our operating lease commitments for which we are the lessee.
The future minimum lease commitments relating to the base lease rent portion of noncancelable operating leases at June 30, 2020 are as follows:

Finance Lease Commitments
Certain of our acquisitions necessitate that we assume, as the lessee, ground and use leases, the cost of which is passed to our tenants through the Lease Agreements, which require the tenants to pay all costs associated with such ground and use leases and provides for their direct payment to the landlord.
We have determined we are the primary obligor of the ground and use leases and, accordingly, have presented these leases on a gross basis on our Balance Sheet and Statement of Operations. Further, we assessed the classification of the sub-lease to our tenant through the Lease Agreements, and our obligation as primary obligor of the ground and use leases and determined that they meet the definition of a sales-type lease and finance lease, respectively. The following table details the balance and location in our Balance Sheet of the ground and use leases as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:
