Individual leases with BALC include 36-month payment terms, fixed rates ranging from 4.75% to 6.72%, and a $1 purchase option at the end of each lease term. The Company has pledged the assets financed to secure the outstanding leases.

The Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the implied interest rate and the total lease payments to calculate its lease liability.
