Item 2. Properties
In December 1997, we entered into a lease agreement for our corporate headquarters located at 730 Milford Road, Merrimack, New Hampshire 03054-4631, with an affiliated company, G&H Post, which is related to us through common ownership, or the Merrimack lease. The Merrimack lease was most recently amended in May 2014 to, among other things, extend the expiration date of the lease to November 2023. We have continued to occupy our corporate headquarters following the expiration of the lease and make rent payments to G&H Post in the amount provided for in the amended Merrimack lease. We have also continued to pay the real estate taxes, insurance, and common area maintenance charges which were required under the Merrimack lease.
We also entered into a lease for an office facility adjacent to our corporate headquarters in August 2008 from the same affiliated company, G&H Post, or the Second Merrimack lease, which is used by our Public Sector Solutions Segment. The Second Merrimack lease included an initial term of ten years and provided us two options to extend the term of the Second Merrimack lease each for an additional two years. We exercised both options to extend the Second Merrimack lease, extending the lease until July 2022. Following the expiration of the Second Merrimack lease, we have continued to occupy the office facility adjacent to our corporate headquarters and make rent payments to G&H Post in the amount provided for in the Second Merrimack lease. We also have continued to pay the real estate taxes, common area maintenance charges, and insurance premiums which were required under the Second Merrimack lease.
We lease a facility in Wilmington, Ohio, which houses our distribution and order fulfillment operations and services all three of our operating segments. We also operate sales and support offices throughout the United States and lease facilities at these locations. These leased facilities are utilized by all three of our operating segments. Leasehold improvements associated with these properties are amortized over the terms of the leases or their useful lives, whichever is shorter. We believe that our physical properties will be sufficient to support our anticipated needs through the next twelve months and beyond.
