(" Shoreline " or the " Company ") announces that the conditions precedent to completion of the transactions contemplated by the previously announced plan of compromise and arrangement (the " Plan ") proposed by the Company under the Companies Creditors' Arrangement Act (the " CCAA ") have not been satisfied. As a result, the Company is unable to obtain a sanction order in order to implement the Plan.
