11.	Related Party Transactions

During 2009 the Company formed a new wholly owned subsidiary (Aero Metal Products, Inc.) that leased certain personal property from a related party through the execution of a capital lease. The Company also entered into a real property operating lease agreement, with the same related party, which provided for annual rental payments of $60,000. These transactions were disclosed as related party transactions because the wife of a former officer of Servotronics, Inc. is a sole shareholder of the company that was leasing/selling the assets. In connection with the Company’s decision to cease all manufacturing operations in the third quarter of 2012 at this subsidiary, and the subsequent surrender of assets under the personal property and real property leases to the related party in the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company accrued for the remaining lease payments which are not material to the September 30, 2013 consolidated financial statements. See Note 7, Capital Lease-Related Party and Note 10, Commitments and Contingencies, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
