PROMISSORY NOTE
Principal Sum: $523,662
Maker: The A. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Irrevocable Trust Agreement dated June 4,
2001, Xxxxxxxx Xxx Xxxxx, A. Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx III and Xxxxxxxx
X. Xxxxxxxx, Trustees
Holder: Kansas City Southern Industries, Inc.
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned Maker (also referred to herein as the
"Trust") promises to pay to the order of the Holder the Principal Sum, plus
interest from the Loan Date (as hereinafter defined, and as indicated on
Schedule A attached hereto) until the date paid, at the Loan Rate indicated in
Schedule A.
The Maker agrees that the entire Principal Sum shall be used to pay a premium on
the life insurance Policy described in Schedule A, and that no part of the
Principal Sum shall be used for any other purpose. Such premium shall be paid by
the Maker within ninety (90) days after the Loan Date (subject to an extension
of up to sixty (60) days if so agreed by the parties). The "Loan Date" shall be
the date on which the Holder pays the Principal Sum to the Maker, or if the
Maker instructs the Holder to pay the Principal Sum amount directly to the
insurer issuing the Policy, the date on which the Holder pays the amount to the
insurer.
The entire Principal Sum, plus accrued interest thereon, shall be due and
payable within ninety (90) days following the death of the Insured (as listed in
Schedule A). Maker agrees to take all reasonable steps to ensure payment of the
Policy death benefit promptly following the deaths of the Insureds.
All payments hereon shall be made in lawful money of the United States of
America to the order of the Holder at 000 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx Xxxx, XX
00000-0000 or at such other place as the Holder may designate in writing to the
Maker from time to time. This Note may be prepaid by the Maker in whole or in
part at any time without penalty or premium. If any payment due is not paid
within ten (10) business days of the due date, such overdue amount shall bear
interest from and after the due date until paid in full at the rate of 10% per
annum, compounded annually, or at the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever
is less.
At any time during the term of this Note, the Maker may elect to reset the Loan
Rate. The Reset Loan Rate shall equal the Applicable Federal Rate provided for
under Internal Revenue Code Section 7872(f)(2)(A), or any successor Section,
with such rate
Exhibit 10.36
to be the Applicable Federal Rate in effect on the Reset Date. The Reset Loan
Rate shall be effective as of the Reset Date, which shall be specified in
writing by the Maker to the Holder at least five (5) days in advance of such
Reset Date. The outstanding loan principal and accrued interest at the Reset
Date shall bear interest at the Reset Loan Rate from the Reset Date until the
date paid. The Reset Loan Rate shall apply for the remaining term of the loan,
and no further reset shall be allowed.
The Maker agrees that the Policy shall be owned solely by the Maker, that the
Trust shall be designated as beneficiary to receive the Policy death benefit or
any benefit paid at policy maturity, and that no other person or entity will
have any interest in the policy, except as otherwise provided herein. Also, the
Maker shall not surrender the Policy, in whole or in part, withdraw cash value
from or borrow from the Policy, or otherwise pledge or encumber the Policy,
except as expressly permitted by the terms of this Note. Maker further agrees
that the entire Principal Sum and accrued interest shall become immediately due
and payable, without any further demand or notice, all of which are expressly
waived, upon the occurrence of any of the following events:
(1) The Maker fails to pay the Policy premium within the time allowed by the
terms of this Note (including any permitted extensions).
(2) The Maker attempts to transfer all or any part of its interest in the
Policy to any party, except that a transfer of Policy rights to a successor
trustee under the terms of the Trust shall not be deemed a transfer for the
purpose of this sentence.
(3) The Maker surrenders the Policy in whole or in part, or borrows from or
withdraws cash value from the Policy, or otherwise pledges or encumbers the
Policy.
(4) The Maker reduces the face amount of the Policy without the consent of the
Holder, but only if the face amount reduction results in a distribution of
policy cash values.
The obligations created by this Note are obligations of the Maker only, and no
individual or entity who is a trustee of the Trust shall have any personal
responsibility or liability with respect to this Note, except in such party's
fiduciary capacity as a trustee. In addition, no beneficiary of the Trust, or
creator of the Trust, shall have any personal responsibility or liability with
respect to this Note, except to the extent of any Policy death benefits paid to
any such beneficiary, in which case the Holder may pursue available legal
remedies to recover any such amount if the Holder has not received payment of
the full amount due to the Holder.
The Maker, the creator of the Trust, and any trustee or beneficiary of the Trust
shall not be responsible for paying any additional amounts as Policy premiums,
even if it becomes necessary to do so to prevent the Policy from lapsing.
However, any such party may pay additional Policy premiums as it elects.
Exhibit 10.36
The Holder may transfer or assign its rights under this Note to any individual
or entity without the consent of the Maker. However, notice of any such transfer
or assignment shall be given to the Maker by the Holder.
The Maker hereby waives presentment, demand for payment, notice of default and
notice of protest. The Maker agrees to pay on demand all losses, costs and
expenses incurred by the Holder in connection with the enforcement of this Note.
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
state of Missouri.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned parties have caused this Note to be duly
executed under seal as of the date first above written.
Holder Maker
