As a result of the Company's write-down of certain redundant property,    its senior lenders (the Lenders) could potentially require the early    payment of approximately $117.3 million of the Company's long-term debt    (the Debt). The Lenders have provided a written waiver to the Company    stating that they have no intention of doing this, however, because this    confirmation occurred after December 29, 2012, the Company must under    IFRS classify the Debt in its December 29, 2012 consolidated financial    statements as being current. This is despite there being no change in:    (i) the quarterly principal payments associated the Debt; and (ii) the    Debt's maturity date of September 9, 2014.
