As of December 31, 2013, included in other receivables is a short-term loan of $9.1 million provided to one of our partners in the Douglas Channel project. The loan is secured, repayable on demand and earns interest at 12%. We believe that the carrying amount of this short-term loan is recoverable (see note 35).
