The Company has commitments under operating leases primarily for office and manufacturing space, transportation equipment, office equipment and computer equipment.  Rental expense was $2.1 million in 2016, $3.4 million in 2015 and $3.8 million in 2014.  Future minimum rental commitments having non-cancelable terms exceeding one year are $1.7 million in 2017, $1.6 million in 2018, $1.4 million in 2019, $1.3 million in both 2020 and 2021, and an aggregate $8.3 million thereafter.  One such lease was for the Company’s aircraft with an original lease commitment through February 2017. The Company terminated the lease in July 2016 and incurred approximately $1.0 million of charges related to the termination.  There are no future lease obligations and all required charges for the lease termination were recorded in the year ended December 31, 2016.  The Company did not incur any obligation for contingent rent under the lease.  The total minimum sublease rentals to be received through 2023 under noncancelable subleases as of December 31, 2016 was $4.6 million.

The Company has commitments under capital leases for equipment and vehicles.  Amounts recognized as capital lease obligations are reported in Accrued expense and other liabilities and Other noncurrent liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.   Future minimum rental commitments for capital leases are less than $.1 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 and the related imputed interest for the capital leases in each of these years is less than $.1 million.  Leased property and equipment under capital leases are amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the lease.  Routine maintenance, repairs and replacements are expensed as incurred.
