(ii) the conversion ratio will be modified such that the Amended Notes may be convertible into the Company’s Class A common shares, no par value (the “Class A Common Shares”), at a price of $3.00 per share (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the 2015 Interest Notes will be modified such that they are convertible into Class A Common Shares at the conversion ratio described in this clause (ii)); and

(iii) if any of the modified terms of the Amended Notes (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the New Notes, the Restructuring Fee Notes and the 2018 Interest Notes) are able to be amended or modified by the vote of holders of a simple majority in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes (rather than by each holder of the Notes), such term shall be amended or modified only by the vote of holders comprising at least 75% in aggregate principal amount of outstanding Notes, voting together as a single class; and

(c) the Company will issue the Restructuring Fee Notes in an aggregate principal amount which is equal to 2.5% of the sum of (i) the principal amount of the Existing Notes plus (ii) Unpaid Interest to the holders of the Existing Notes as a restructuring fee.

5.5 Use of Proceeds and Future Distributions. Subject to applicable regulatory requirements regarding capital and reserves for operating expenses and taxes, the Company agrees to distribute to its shareholders a substantial majority of the Award Proceeds constituting cash and cash equivalents received in connection with the Arbitration Proceedings (including, for the avoidance of doubt, cash and cash equivalents received from the liquidation or other monetization of non-cash proceeds received as a result of the Arbitration Proceedings) and/or the sale of any related mining data promptly following each receipt (if more than one) thereof; provided, that the Company shall be under no obligation to distribute any such Award Proceeds constituting cash or cash equivalents that are received in connection with the Arbitration Proceedings or sale of mining data that are necessary or required to pay or satisfy (x) contractual, operating and other current and working capital expenses in the ordinary course, (y) tax obligations (including corporate income tax) specific to or arising as a result of the Award and/or any Award Proceeds, or the sale or other disposition of mining data and/or any proceeds therefrom, and/or (z) any Current Payment Obligations. “Current Payment Obligations” shall mean amounts payable under any financing in place at the relevant time (including, as applicable, the Notes and any refinancing thereof), CVRs or similar obligations and amounts under any compensatory or change of control arrangements (whether employees, officers, directors or consultants and whether cash or equity-related) that are in effect on the date hereof or entered into after the date hereof in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice.

5.6 Option Exercise. The Company agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to work with the Senior Management Optionholders to exercise such Senior Management Optionholder’s Options that expire in January 2016, provided that such Options are not “out of the money” at the time of exercise, sufficient market liquidity exists to permit disposition of the underlying Class A Common Shares and adequate cash on hand is available to such Optionholders to enable to pay taxes resulting from such Option exercises and without their incurring any debt to do so.

Further, nothing in this provision shall be deemed or construed to create a priority for payment of the Notes or CVRs.
