Item 2. Properties.

Our corporate headquarters are located in Denver, Colorado, consisting of one owned 240,000 square foot building and one leased location consisting of 345,900 square feet. Our headquarters are occupied by teammates engaged in management, finance, marketing, strategy, legal, compliance and other administrative functions. We lease seven business offices located in California, Colorado, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and Washington for our U.S. dialysis services business. For our DMG business we lease 11 business offices located in California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Florida and Washington. Our laboratory is based in Florida where we operate our lab services out of one leased building. We also own four administrative offices in the U.S. and lease administrative offices worldwide. Our leases on the properties listed above expire at various dates through the year 2037 for Kidney Care and through the year 2033 for DMG.

For our U.S. dialysis and related lab services business we own the land and buildings for 12 of our outpatient dialysis centers. We also own 15 separate land and buildings and 15 land parcels for development. We lease a total of four owned properties to third-party tenants. Our remaining outpatient dialysis centers are located on premises that we lease.

For DMG, we own the land and buildings for 16 of our clinics. We also own one separate land parcel. Our remaining clinics are located on premises that we lease.

The majority of our leases for our U.S. dialysis and related lab services and for DMG cover periods from five years to 15 years and typically contain renewal options of five to ten years at the fair rental value at the time of renewal. Our leases are generally subject to periodic consumer price index increases, or contain fixed escalation clauses. Our outpatient dialysis centers range in size from approximately 900 to 33,000 square feet, with an average size of approximately 7,800 square feet. DMG’s clinics range in size from approximately 1,000 to 192,000 square feet, with an average size of approximately 10,400 square feet. Our international leases generally range from one to ten years.

Some of our outpatient dialysis centers are operating at or near capacity. However, we believe that we have adequate capacity within most of our existing dialysis centers to accommodate additional patient volume through increased hours and/or days of operation, or, if additional space is available within an existing facility, by adding dialysis stations. We can usually relocate existing centers to larger facilities or open new centers if existing centers reach capacity. With respect to relocating centers or building new centers, we believe that we can generally lease space at economically reasonable rates in the areas planned for each of these centers, although there can be no assurances in this regard. Expansion of existing centers or relocation of our dialysis centers is subject to review for compliance with conditions relating to participation in the Medicare ESRD program. In states that require a certificate of need or center license, additional approvals would generally be necessary for expansion or relocation.
