(1) Long-term debt, excluding bank loans, is presented net of unamortized discounts, finance costs, fair value
adjustment on debt and bond forward proceeds of $27,761 (2008 – $24,870). Prior to September 1, 2007,
such amounts were presented as deferred charges and deferred credits (see notes 7 and 10). Amortization for
2009 amounted to $4,466 (2008 – $3,822) of which $3,984 (2008 – $3,627) was recorded as amortization
of financing costs and $482 (2008 – $195) was recorded as interest expense.
(2) Foreign denominated long-term debt is translated at the year-end rate of 1.0950 Cdn (2008 1.0620 Cdn). If the
rate of translation was adjusted to reflect the hedged rates of the Company’s cross-currency interest rate agreements
(which fix the liability for interest and principal), long-term debt would increase by $418,633 (2008 – $450,478).
(3) The notes were redeemed subsequent to year end (see note 24).
Interest on long-term debt included in interest expense amounted to $237,546 (2008 –
$231,599; 2007 – $250,100). Interest expense is net of $981 (2008 – $1,950; 2007
$5,301) of interest income. Excess proceeds from the $600,000 senior notes issuance in March
