We lease a corporate office building in Ewing, New Jersey for our global corporate headquarters.  The lease expires in 2033 and includes two 10-year extension terms at our option.  In addition, we own an office building in Fort Collins, Colorado that is occupied by Waterpik and an office building in Princeton, New Jersey that is occupied by our research and development department. 

We own or lease manufacturing facilities, warehouses and other offices in 16 different U.S. states and 12 different countries outside of the U.S.  Many of our domestic and international sites manufacture and distribute products for multiple segments of our business.  We believe that our operating and administrative facilities are adequate and suitable for the conduct of our business.
