Future minimum non-cancelable lease payments, as stated above, do not reflect committed future sublease income of $1,067, $306, $317 and $219 for the years ended September 30, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019, respectively.

Rent expense net of sublease income was approximately $47,032, $45,032 and $45,610 for fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved in various legal claims and proceedings arising in the normal course of its business. The Company accrues for a loss contingency when it determines that it is probable, after consultation with counsel, that a liability has been incurred and the amount of such loss can be reasonably estimated. At this time, the Company believes that the results of any such contingencies, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company provides certain customers with financial performance guarantees which, in certain cases, are backed by lines of credit. The Company is only liable for the amounts of those guarantees in the event of the Company’s nonperformance, which would permit the customer to exercise the guarantee.

The Company generally offers its products with a limited warranty for a period of 90 days or more. The Company’s policy is to accrue for warranty costs, if needed, based on historical trends in product failure. Based on the Company’s experience, only minimal warranty charges have been required after revenue was fully recognized and, as a result, the Company did not accrue any amounts for product warranty liability during fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013.

The Company generally indemnifies its customers against claims of intellectual property infringement made by third parties arising from the use of the Company’s software. To date, the Company has incurred and recorded immaterial costs as a result of such obligations in its consolidated financial statements.
