2.  LEASES

We lease various assets to support our business including warehouses for our installation branch locations and specialty distribution centers, office space for our Branch Support Center in Daytona Beach, Florida and other administrative locations, as well as fleet vehicles and certain equipment. In addition, we lease certain operating facilities from related parties, primarily former owners (and in certain cases, current management personnel) of companies acquired. These related party leases are immaterial to our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
