Market, for the three trading days prior to the Maturity Date.


 


“Note Payment” means the amount of
cash paid by Canadian OpCo to Company upon the Maturity Date, which shall be a
minimum amount of Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) and may, at the sole option
of Canadian OpCo, be up to a maximum amount equal to the Principal Amount.


 


“Senior Event of Default” means any
default in the performance of any term, covenant or condition contained in the
agreement or instrument under which any Senior Indebtedness is issued, or any other default thereunder, in each case
permitting the Senior Lender to accelerate or demand repayment of, or to put or
cause the redemption or prepayment of, such Senior Indebtedness.


 


“Senior Indebtedness” means any
indebtedness, liabilities and other obligations of Canadian OpCo to any Person
(each a “Senior Lender”) with respect
to any working capital, revolving credit or other line of credit facility, any
term loan facility, or any other extension of credit by a bank, insurance
company or financial institution engaged in the business of lending money or
other institutional lender, including reimbursement obligations under letters

guaranties, as applicable) and obligations in respect of bankers’ acceptances,
obligations in respect of interest rate protection agreements and other
derivative products and in respect of currency exchange and purchase
agreements, and renewals, extensions, refinancings, deferrals, amendments and
modifications of the items described above. 
The terms “indebtedness,” “liabilities” and “obligations” are used in this
definition in their most comprehensive sense and include any and all advances,
debts, obligations and liabilities, now existing or hereafter arising, whether
voluntary or involuntary and whether due or not due, absolute or contingent,
liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined.  Notwithstanding the foregoing the Year 1 Note
and the other Future Payment Notes shall not be “Senior Indebtedness” for
purposes of this Note.

payment or distribution by or on behalf of Canadian OpCo, directly or

For purposes of this Note, any of the following events which shall occur
shall constitute an “Event of Default”:


 


(i)            Any indebtedness under this Note is not paid when and as
the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise (regardless of whether any such failure to pay any indebtedness under

amount shall remain unpaid for a period of thirty (30) days following delivery
of notice thereof by Company;

be and become immediately due and payable, and Canadian OpCo shall immediately
pay to Holder all such indebtedness. 
Canadian OpCo agrees to pay Company all reasonable out-of-pocket costs
and expenses incurred by Company in any effort to collect indebtedness under
this Note, including attorneys’ fees.


 


6.             Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Note.  In case this Note shall be mutilated, lost,

waivers and other communications made pursuant to this Note shall be made in
accordance with the Agreement.


 


10.           Severability.
