The Company leases its facilities in San Diego, California, Yaphank, New York and Las Vegas, Nevada under non-cancelable operating leases. The Company amended its San Diego lease in March 2009 extending the term of the lease and again in September 2009 adding additional square feet. The amended lease expires in March 2014 and requires minimum annual rental payments that are subject to fixed annual increases. The minimum annual rentals under this lease are being charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the lease term. Deferred rents, included in accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities, were $15,000 as of October 31, 2013 and $54,000 as of October 31, 2012. The San Diego lease also requires the payment of the Company's pro rata share of the real estate taxes and insurance, maintenance and other operating expenses related to the facilities. The Company also leases certain automobiles under operating leases which expire at various dates through June 2015.
 
Rent expense under all operating leases totaled approximately $652,000 and $624,000 in 2013 and 2012, respectively.
