| (1) |  | In connection with Woodward’s acquisition of GE Aviation Systems LLC’s (the “Seller”) thrust reverser actuation systems business located in Duarte, California (the “Duarte Acquisition”) in fiscal year 2013, Woodward assumed current and long-term performance obligations for contractual commitments that are expected to result in future economic losses. In addition, Woodward assumed current and long-term performance obligations for services to be provided to the Seller and others, partially offset by current and long-term assets related to contractual payments due from the Seller. The current portion of both obligations is included in Accrued liabilities.
﻿ Warranties Provisions of Woodward’s sales agreements include product warranties customary to these types of agreements. Accruals are established for specifically identified warranty issues that are probable to result in future costs. Warranty costs are accrued on a non-specific basis whenever past experience indicates a normal and predictable pattern exists. Changes in accrued product warranties were as follows: ﻿ ﻿

﻿ Loss reserve on contractual lease commitments In connection with the construction of a new production facility in Niles, Illinois, Woodward vacated a leased facility in Skokie, Illinois. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2016 Woodward fully vacated the Skokie facility and therefore recorded a charge of $8,165 to recognize a loss reserve against the estimated remaining contractual lease commitments, less anticipated sublease income. The summary for the activity in the loss reserve during the twelve-months ended September 30, 2016 is as follows: ﻿ ﻿ ﻿

﻿ | Twelve-Months Ended September 30,

﻿Reductions |  | (1,387) |  |  | (787)
﻿Loss reserve on contractual lease commitments, end of period | $ | 9,242 |  | $ | 2,464
Other liabilities included $7,402 of accrued loss reserve on contractual lease commitments that are not expected to be settled or paid within twelve months as of September 30, 2016.
