Key money is the amount of funds paid to a landlord or tenant to acquire the rights of tenancy under a commercial property lease for a certain property. Key money represents the "right to lease" with an automatic right of renewal. This right can be subsequently sold by the Company or can be recovered should the landlord refuse to allow the automatic right of renewal to be exercised. Key money is amortized over the initial lease term, which ranges from approximately four to 18 years. Amortization expense for intangible assets was approximately $3.5 million, $0.9 million and $1.4 million for fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Estimated aggregate future amortization expense by fiscal year for intangible assets is as follows (in thousands):
Fiscal Year |  | Amortization Expense |
--- | --- | --- | ---
2013 |  | $ | 4,125 |
2014 |  |  | 4,053 |
2015 |  |  | 3,661 |
2016 |  |  | 3,522 |
2017 |  |  | 3,263 |
As noted in Note 1—Significant Accounting Policies, the Company performed its annual impairment test of certain trade names. At December 29, 2012, the estimated fair value of the Company's MICHELE, ZODIAC, and SKAGEN trade names exceeded the carrying cost of these indefinite-lived intangible assets. Therefore, no impairment charges were recorded. The MICHELE and ZODIAC trade names were tested in fiscal year 2011 for annual impairment, and no impairment was recorded. During fiscal year 2010, the Company's annual impairment analysis resulted in net of tax impairment charges of $837,000 and $789,000 to the OYZTERBAY and ZODIAC trade names, respectively. The impairment charges for the OYZTERBAY trade name reduced the carrying value to zero. The ZODIAC trade name is reported within the Europe wholesale segment.
