## Operating Leases 

Operating lease commitments are primarily for office space and equipment. Certain office space leases provide for rent adjustments relating to changes in real estate taxes and other operating costs. 

Rental expense amounted to approximately $16 million in 2014  and 2013 and $18 million in 2012. The approximate minimum rental commitments under noncancelable leases, net of subleases, as of December 28, 2014 were as follows:

## Restricted Cash 

We were required to maintain $30.2 million of restricted cash as of December 28, 2014 and $28.1 million as of December 29, 2013, primarily related to certain collateral requirements, for obligations under our workers’ compensation programs. These collateral requirements were previously supported by letters of credit under a revolving credit facility that was replaced in June 2011. 

## Newspaper and Mail Deliverers GLYPH<150> PublishersGLYPH<146> Pension Fund 

In September 2013, the Newspaper and Mail Deliverers - Publishers’ Pension Fund (the “Fund”) assessed a partial withdrawal liability to the Company in the amount of $26 million for the plan years ending May 31, 2012 and 2013, an amount that was increased to approximately $34 million in December 2014, when the Fund issued a revised partial withdrawal liability assessment for the plan year ending May 31, 2013. The Fund claims that when City & Suburban, a retail and newsstand distribution subsidiary of the Company and the largest contributor to the Fund, ceased operations in 2009, it triggered a decline of more than 70% in contribution base units in each of these two plan years. The Company disagrees with both the Fund’s determination that a partial withdrawal occurred and the methodology by which it calculated the withdrawal liability and has initiated arbitration proceedings. We do not believe that a loss is probable on this matter and have not recorded a loss contingency for the period ended December 28, 2014.
