Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On October 1, 2014, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of AMK Welding, Inc. (“AMK”), pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Dynamic Materials Corporation, the sole stockholder of AMK, for a purchase price of $6,750,000, subject to a working capital adjustment.  The purchase price was paid in part by delivery of our promissory note in the principal amount of $2,500,000, of which AMK is co-maker (the “Note”). Payment of the Note is secured by a mortgage on certain real estate owned by AMK.
 
AMK, based in South Windsor, Connecticut, is a provider of sophisticated welding and machining services for diversified aerospace and industrial customers. AMK specializes in super alloy joining, cladding, machining and assembly and is NADCAP, ISO9001; AS9100 certified with specific customer approvals from GE, Pratt & Whitney, Honeywell, Rolls Royce, and others. AMK operates out of a 40,000 sq. ft. facility with 30 highly qualified specialized welders with collectively over 600 years of combined welding experience, and holding 164 different process / material group qualifications.   The management and employees of AMK will remain and AMK will be operated as a separate subsidiary as part of the Air Industries Group of companies.
 
In connection with the acquisition of AMK, on October 1, 2014 we, our wholly-owned subsidiaries and AMK entered into the Sixth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement with PNC Bank, N.A. (the “PNC Loan Agreement”) to add AMK as a party to the PNC Loan Agreement and an additional Term Loan in the principal amount of $3,500,000.
