Related Party Transactions |
(10) Related Party Transactions The Company and its subsidiaries periodically enter into transactions with other entities or individuals that are considered related parties, including certain transactions with entities affiliated with trusts for the respective benefit of Maurice and Paul Marciano, who are executives of the Company, Armand Marciano, their brother and former executive of the Company, and certain of their children (the “Marciano Trusts”). Leases The Company leases warehouse and administrative facilities, including the Company’s corporate headquarters in Los Angeles, California, from partnerships affiliated with the Marciano Trusts and certain of their affiliates. There were four of these leases in effect at October 29, 2011 with expiration dates ranging from 2012 to 2020. One of these leases, with respect to the Company’s new showroom and office space located in Paris, France, was amended on June 27, 2011 to reconfigure and increase the size of the leased space. The amended lease provides for a $0.1 million increase in the annual rent amount, to $1.1 million per year (with subsequent annual rent adjustments based on a specified price index). All other material terms of the existing Paris lease remain in full force and effect. The Company took possession of the facility on July 1, 2011. Aggregate rent and property tax expense under these related party leases for the nine months ended October 29, 2011 and October 30, 2010 was $3.9 million and $3.4 million, respectively. The Company believes the related party lease terms have not been significantly affected by the fact that the Company and the lessors are related. Aircraft Arrangements The Company periodically charters aircraft owned by MPM Financial, LLC (“MPM Financial”), an entity affiliated with the Marciano Trusts, through independent third party management companies contracted by MPM Financial to manage its aircraft. Under an informal arrangement with MPM Financial and the third party management companies, the Company has chartered and may from time to time continue to charter aircraft owned by MPM Financial at a discount from the third party management companies’ preferred customer hourly charter rates. The total fees paid under these arrangements for each of the nine months ended October 29, 2011 and October 30, 2010 were approximately $0.5 million. These related party disclosures should be read in conjunction with the disclosure concerning related party transactions in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 29, 2011.
