Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | 19. COMMITMENTS Executive Severance Agreements with Kevin Miller and Rocco Campanelli The Company is a party to Executive Severance Agreements (the “Executive Severance Agreements”) with Rocco Campanelli, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer as of February 28, 2014, and Kevin Miller, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, which set forth the terms and conditions of certain payments to be made by the Company to each executive in the event, while employed by the Company, such executive experiences (a) a termination of employment unrelated to a “Change in Control” (as defined therein) or (b) there occurs a Change in Control and either (i) the executive’s employment is terminated for a reason related to the Change in Control or (ii) the executive remains continuously employed with the Company for a specified period of time following the Change in Control (i.e., twelve months for Mr. Campanelli and three months for Mr. Miller). Under the terms of the Executive Severance Agreements, if either (a) the executive is involuntarily terminated by the Company for any reason other than “Cause” (as defined therein), “Disability” (as defined therein) or death, or (b) the executive resigns for “Good Reason” (as defined therein), and, in each case, the termination is not a “Termination Related to a Change in Control” (as defined below), the executive will receive the following severance payments: (i) an amount equal to 1.5 times the sum of (a) the executive’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to the termination date (before taking into account any reduction that constitutes Good Reason) (“Annual Base Salary”) and (b) the highest annual bonus paid to the executive in any of the three fiscal years immediately preceding the executive’s termination date (“Bonus”), to be paid in installments over the twelve month period following the executive’s termination date; and (ii) for a period of eighteen months following the executive’s termination date, a monthly payment equal to the monthly COBRA premium that the executive is required to pay to continue medical, vision, and dental coverage, for himself and, where applicable, his spouse and eligible dependents. Notwithstanding the above, if the executive has a termination as described above and can reasonably demonstrate that such termination would constitute a Termination Related to a Change in Control, and a Change in Control occurs within 120 days following the executive’s termination date, the executive will be entitled to receive the payments set forth below for a Termination Related to a Change in Control, less any amounts already paid to the executive, upon consummation of the Change in Control. Under the terms of the Executive Severance Agreements, if a Change in Control occurs and (a) the executive experiences a Termination Related to a Change in Control on account of (i) an involuntary termination by the Company for any reason other than Cause, death, or Disability, (ii) an involuntary termination by the Company within a specified period of time following a Change in Control (i.e., twelve months for Mr. Campanelli and three months for Mr. Miller) on account of Disability or death, or (iii) a resignation by the executive with Good Reason; or (b) a resignation by the executive, with or without Good Reason, which results in a termination date that is the last day of the specified period (i.e., twelve months for Mr. Campanelli and three months for Mr. Miller) following a Change in Control, then the executive will receive the following severance payments: (1) a lump sum payment equal to two times the sum of the executive’s (a) Annual Base Salary and (b) Bonus; and (2) a lump sum payment equal to twenty-four multiplied by the monthly COBRA premium cost, as in effect immediately prior to the executive’s termination date, for the executive to continue medical, dental and vision coverage, as applicable, in such Company plans for himself and, if applicable, his spouse and eligible dependents. The Executive Severance Agreements provide that if the executive remains continuously employed for a specified period of time following a Change in Control (i.e., twelve months for Mr. Campanelli and three months for Mr. Miller) and is employed by the Company on the last day of such specified period, the executive will receive a lump sum payment equal to two times the sum of the executive’s (a) Annual Base Salary and (b) Bonus (the “Change in Control Payment”). If the executive receives the Change in Control Payment, the executive will not be eligible to receive any severance payments under his Executive Severance Agreement. Separation Agreement with Leon Kopyt On January 22, 2014, the Company and Mr. Kopyt entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release (the “Separation Agreement”) in connection with his retirement as our President and Chief Executive Officer, effective as of February 28, 2014. Under the Separation Agreement, Mr. Kopyt received a cash severance payment of approximately $2.7 million, less applicable deductions and withholdings, to be paid to Mr. Kopyt in a single lump sum following the end of the six-month period from his retirement date. The Separation Agreement also contains mutual releases and other provisions customary to such agreements. Prior to entering into the Separation Agreement, Mr. Kopyt and the Company were party to an Employment Agreement, Termination Benefits Agreement and Severance Agreement, all of which terminated upon execution of the Separation Agreement. Operating Leases The Company leases office facilities and various equipment under non-cancelable leases expiring at various dates through June 2020. Certain leases are subject to escalation clauses based upon changes in various factors. The minimum future annual operating lease commitments for leases with non-cancelable terms, exclusive of unknown operating escalation charges, are as follows ($ in thousands):

2018 |  |  | 1,579 |
2019 |  |  | 670 |
Thereafter |  |  | 228 |
Total |  | $ | 10,144 |
Rent expense for the fiscal years ended January 3, 2015 and December 28, 2013 was $2,837 and $2,896, respectively. The Company subleases space to other tenants at various office locations under cancelable lease agreements.
