Please Mum Partnership, Elia Fashions Ltd. and Bossa Nova Fashions Ltd.

CCAA Proceedings

On December 6, 2011, Please Mum Partnership, Elia Fashions Ltd. and Bossa Nova Fashions Ltd. (collectively, the “Petitioners”) filed a Petition in the Vancouver Registry of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”), seeking further protection from their creditors under the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (“CCAA”) to enable the Petitioners to continue restructuring their business and their indebtedness to creditors. An Initial Order was granted by the Court on the same day which prevents any creditor of the Petitioners from taking any proceedings against the Petitioners and permits the Petitioners to remain in control of their assets and to continue to carry on business during the restructuring period.   

Deloitte & Touche Inc. was appointed Monitor in the CCAA Proceedings to oversee the operations of the Petitioners during the restructuring.
