statements related to its treatment of contingent consideration in the acquisition of Renaissance Food Group, LLC (&#147;RFG&#148;) in June 2011, which will require a restatement of the Company&#146;s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal
years ended October 31, 2013 and 2012 and the quarters therein, as well as the quarters ended January 31, 2014, April 30, 2014 and July 31, 2014 (the &#147;Relevant Periods&#148;). </P>
