NOTE K — LEASES
We lease certain property, plant and equipment under longterm
operating lease agreements, some of which provide for
increased rental payments based upon increases in the cost-ofliving
index. The following table illustrates our future minimum
lease commitments under all non-cancelable lease agreements,
for each of the next five years and in the aggregate, as of
May 31, 2011:
Total rental expense for all operating leases amounted to
$41.4 million, $41.8 million and $40.4 million for the fiscal years
ended May 31, 2011, 2010 and 2009, respectively.
