Toshiba shall specify in the Draw Instruction Notice (a) the amounts to be demanded in the Draw Demands and (b) instructions as to which monthly payment amounts (not to exceed, in the aggregate for all Draw Instruction Notices, two of the monthly payment amounts) shall be reduced by Beneficiary by application of the proceeds of the Draw Demands. If the Draw Instruction Notice is delivered by Toshiba to Beneficiary in accordance with the terms hereof, then no later than seven (7) days after all applicable notices have been delivered to Westinghouse and all notice, grace or cure periods have ended permitting the Owners to draw under the Letters of Credit, Beneficiary will present to the issuer(s) of the Letters of Credit a Draw Demand under the Letters of Credit in the amounts set forth in the Draw Instruction Notice. If Beneficiary receives the proceeds of the Draw Demand from the issuer(s) of the Letters of Credit within ten (10) business days in the United States of America of the Owners’ presentation of the Draw Demand, Beneficiary will apply such proceeds to reduce monthly payment amounts as specified in the Draw Instruction Notice. If Beneficiary does not receive the proceeds of the Draw Demand from the issuer(s) of the Letters of Credit within ten (10) business days in the United States of America of the Owners’ presentation of the Draw Demand, (a) Toshiba shall be obligated to pay to Beneficiary as and when contemplated by Section 2.2 the monthly payment amounts that were to be reduced by Beneficiary by application of the proceeds of such Draw Demand and (b) Beneficiary will apply such proceeds of the Draw Demand, if and when received from the issuer(s) of the Letters of Credit, to reduce monthly payment amounts on Schedule 2.2 in inverse order of their specified payment dates (i.e., starting with payment dates that are the farthest in the future).

Section 3.2    Westinghouse Proceeds.
(a)    Beneficiary will apply the first $1,000,000,000 of all cash distributions received by it (i) pursuant to the Distribution Order or as contemplated by Section 5.6, or (ii) in respect of claims of the Owners for a breach by Westinghouse of the EPC Agreement (including any rejection thereof under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code), including any distributions from Westinghouse in exchange for, on account of, or in connection with such claims, against the monthly payment obligations of Toshiba under Section 2.2. Beneficiary will apply such cash distributions received by it to the monthly payment amounts on Schedule 2.2 in inverse order of their specified payment dates (i.e., starting with payment dates that are the farthest in the future).
(b)    Beneficiary will apply all cash distributions in excess of $1,000,000,000 received by it (i) pursuant to the Distribution Order or as contemplated by Section 5.6, or (ii) in respect of claims of the Owners for a breach by Westinghouse of the EPC Agreement (including any rejection thereof under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code), including any distributions from Westinghouse in exchange for, on account of, or in connection with such claims, against the monthly payment obligations of Toshiba under Section 2.2 Beneficiary will apply such distributions pro rata (based on the respective unpaid amounts set forth on Schedule 2.2) (a) first against all remaining monthly payment amounts set forth on Schedule 2.2 that have payment dates on or after March 1, 2019 and that are not past due, (b) second against all remaining monthly payment amounts set forth on Schedule 2.2 that have payment dates before March 1, 2019 and that are not past due and (c) third, if there are monthly payment amounts that are past due, against any such payment amounts.
(c)    For the avoidance of doubt, no non-cash distribution received by Beneficiary or any Owner shall be applied to reduce the monthly payment obligations of Toshiba under Section 2.2, unless and until such distribution is reduced to cash. In the event that, as of the time (i) Toshiba is entitled to exercise subrogation rights as contemplated by Section 9.3 and (ii) the proviso in Section 9.3 is no longer applicable, any Owner continues to own or have any interest in any non-cash distributions received by such Owner in exchange for, on account of, or in connection with any claims of such Owner for a breach by Westinghouse of the EPC Agreement (including any rejection thereof under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code), Toshiba shall have the right, at any time thereafter, to demand in writing that such Owner, if and when any such non-cash distribution or interest therein is thereafter reduced to cash, transfer to Toshiba such cash. Following its receipt of such written demand such Owner shall so transfer to Toshiba any such cash received by it on account of such non-cash distribution or interest therein that has not, pursuant to this Agreement, been applied to monthly payment amounts on Schedule 2.2, but only to the extent the aggregate amount of all cash transferred to Toshiba pursuant to this Section 3.2(c) does not exceed such Owner’s Pro Rata Share of the Agreed Amount. Any such transfer of cash to Toshiba will be accompanied by a reasonably detailed accounting of (a) the non-cash distributions received by such Owner in exchange for, on account of, or in connection with any claims of such Owner for a breach by Westinghouse of the EPC Agreement (including any rejection thereof under section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code) and (b) any cash received in respect thereof.

Contemporaneously with or promptly following Beneficiary’s receipt of the Toshiba Promissory Note, the Owners will surrender the Letters of Credit to Toshiba or the issuer of such Letter of Credit.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Toshiba shall be under no obligation to provide information to the Beneficiary relating to asset sales that have not been completed.
Section 5.5    Amendment, Modification and Waiver of the Distribution Order. Without the prior written consent of each Owner, which consent may be granted or withheld in its sole discretion, Toshiba will not seek to reverse, withdraw, have reconsidered, vacate or otherwise amend the Distribution Order. Toshiba shall comply with all of its obligations under the Distribution Order.

16


Westinghouse (or any of its subsidiaries) or Toshiba Nuclear Energy Holdings (UK) Limited (or any of its subsidiaries; or (iii) any proceeds from the sale of any claim against Westinghouse (or any of its subsidiaries) or Toshiba Nuclear Energy Holdings (UK) Limited (or any of its subsidiaries) (any of the items described in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the “Pay Over Property”); provided, however, that, with respect to any Pay Over Property in respect of the equity securities of Toshiba Nuclear Energy Holdings (UK) Limited, this Section 5.6 shall not apply to the portion of such Pay Over Property allocable to any minority owner of Toshiba Nuclear Energy Holdings (UK) Limited that is not an Affiliate of Toshiba under the governing documents of Toshiba Nuclear Energy Holdings (UK) Limited, so long as such allocated portion does not exceed 10% of such Pay Over Property. Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 5.6, in lieu of complying with the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.6 Toshiba shall be entitled to return to Westinghouse (or any of its subsidiaries) or Toshiba Nuclear Energy Holdings (UK) Limited (or any of its subsidiaries) any Pay Over Property paid or distributed by such Person or such Person's agent or designee to Toshiba or any of its Affiliates.

Section 5.7    Payments Free and Clear.
(a)All payments under this Agreement shall be made in U.S. Dollars and without any deductions or withholding for or on account of any tax imposed upon any Owner, Beneficiary or Toshiba unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable Law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, then in effect. If Toshiba is so required to deduct or withhold, then Toshiba will (i) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld (including the full amount of tax required to be deducted or withheld from any additional amount paid by Toshiba to any Owner or Beneficiary under this Section 5.7) promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such an amount has been assessed against any Owner or Beneficiary, and in any event before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon, (ii) promptly forward to the Owners an official receipt (or certified copy), or other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Owners, evidencing such payment to such authorities and (iii) in addition to the payment which any Owner or Beneficiary is otherwise entitled under this Agreement, if such deduction or withholding is on account of any tax imposed upon Toshiba, pay to the Owners and Beneficiary such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Owners and Beneficiary (free and clear of

17


taxes assessed against Toshiba) will equal the full amount the Owners and Beneficiary would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required.
(b)If (i) Toshiba is required to make any deduction or withholding on account of any tax from any payment made by it under this Agreement, (ii) Toshiba does not make the deduction or withholding, and (iii) a liability for or on account of the tax is therefore assessed directly against any Owner or Beneficiary, Toshiba shall pay to the Owners and Beneficiary, promptly after deemed, the amount of the liability (including any related liability for interest or penalties).
ARTICLE VI
COVENANTS OF BENEFICIARY AND OWNERS
Section 6.1    Forbearance. Beneficiary will not, prior to the Forbearance Date, enforce any rights under the Toshiba Guaranty unless a Forbearance Termination Event has occurred (inclusive of the expiration without cure of any applicable cure period set forth in clause (d) of the definition of Forbearance Termination Event). Unless a Forbearance Termination Event has occurred, Beneficiary will not, prior to the Forbearance Date, make any demand for payment under any of the Letters of Credit except (a) as contemplated by Section 2.4 or Section 3.1, (b) from and after the delivery by Toshiba of a Payment Obligation Suspension Notice, and (c) in the sixty (60) day period before the expiration thereof.
Section 6.2    SCANA. Each of the Owners agrees that it will negotiate in good faith with Toshiba regarding, and to minimize any adverse effects on the Owners or the construction, maintenance or operation of the Vogtle Facility (whether such facility is completed under the EPC Agreement or otherwise) of, any agreement or arrangements Toshiba or any of its Affiliates may enter into or contemplate entering into with SCANA or any successors or assigns thereof; provided, however, that in no event will any of the Owners be required, by reason of this Section 6.2, to release, amend, waive, or otherwise modify any of their rights under this Agreement or any other agreement.
Section 6.3    Services Agreement. Beneficiary will negotiate in good faith with Toshiba regarding a potential services agreement under which Toshiba may provide parts and services relating to the Vogtle Facility; provided, however, that in no event will any of the Owners be required, by reason of this Section 6.3, to release, amend, waive, or otherwise modify any of their rights under this Agreement or any other agreement; and provided further, however, that in no event will any of the Owners, by reason of this Section 6.3, have any obligation to enter into such services agreement or to consider, or to undertake, any work or obligation with respect to the Vogtle Facility or the completion thereof.
Section 6.4    Consideration of Cost Reduction Proposals. Beneficiary will consider any good faith proposals it may receive from Toshiba for arrangements for incentives benefitting both Toshiba and the Owners that are intended to reduce costs to achieve Final Completion; provided, however, that in no event will any of the Owners be required, by reason of this Section 6.4, to release, amend, waive, or otherwise modify any of their rights under this Agreement or any other agreement; and provided, further, however, that in no event will any of the Owners, by reason of this Section 6.4, have any obligation to enter into any arrangements with respect to any

18


such incentives or to consider, or to undertake, any work or obligation with respect to the Vogtle Facility or Final Completion. Each Owner acknowledges and agrees that Toshiba is not required to provide any proposals pursuant to this Section 6.4. Toshiba makes no representations or warranties in respect of any such proposal.

If (a) the amount of (i) Vogtle Costs as shown on the Vogtle Cost Statement minus (ii) the Contract Price (as adjusted as provided by the EPC Agreement) is less than (b) the Agreed Amount, then, if all payment obligations of Toshiba in this Agreement and in the Toshiba Promissory Note have been fully and irrevocably paid (whether or not then due), each Owner shall pay Toshiba its Pro Rata Share of 50% of the resulting difference. For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge that the Owners shall have no obligation to minimize or reduce the Vogtle Costs, and Toshiba shall have no right to assert any right to payment under this Section 6.5 based on an assertion that the Vogtle Costs should have been lower.
Section 6.6    Support of Sale of Westinghouse’s Assets and Plan Support Agreement. Toshiba and each of the Owners agrees that it will support a prompt sale of the assets of Westinghouse and the other WEC Debtors pursuant to a plan of reorganization or a motion under section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code that is, in each case, acceptable to Toshiba and the Owners in their respective sole discretion. Toshiba and each of the Owners agrees that it will negotiate in good faith regarding the terms of an acceptable, in their respective sole discretion, plan support agreement that will set forth terms of an acceptable, in their respective sole discretion, chapter 11 plan for Westinghouse and the other WEC Debtors. Such plan support agreement shall include plan provisions which (i) provide for a third party release, exculpation and plan injunction substantially in the form of Exhibit C, and (ii) set forth an allocation, acceptable to each of the Owners in their respective sole discretion, of distributions to the Owners on account of their respective claims.
Section 6.7    Release.
(a)    Effective immediately upon (i) the full payment to Beneficiary, and receipt by the Owners, of the Toshiba Obligation Amount, or (ii) the issuance of the Toshiba Promissory Note (as applicable), each of the Owners on behalf of itself and its present and former agents, Affiliates, principals, shareholders, stakeholders, predecessors, subsidiaries, successors and assigns (collectively, the “Owner Releasing Parties”) hereby fully, finally and forever releases, acquits and discharges Toshiba, and each of its respective agents, Affiliates, members, shareholders, executives, employees, attorneys, advisors, accountants, auditors, representatives, associates, directors, officers, partners, principals, insurers, predecessors, subsidiaries, successors, estates, heirs, executors, trusts, trustees, administrators, licensees and assigns, excluding the WEC Debtors and any subsidiaries thereof (such parties collectively, the “Toshiba Released Parties”) from any and all manner of action, causes of action, claims, demands, lawsuits, attorneys’ fees and costs, losses, expenses, damages, right to equitable remedy if such breach gives rise to a right of payment, or liabilities of whatever kind and nature

19


whatsoever, whether now known or unknown, asserted or unasserted, suspected or unsuspected, whether arising under federal, state, local, statutory, common, foreign or administrative Law, or any other Law, rule or regulation, whether fixed or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, liquidated or unliquidated, matured or unmatured, disputed or undisputed, at law or in equity, secured or unsecured that any of the Owner Releasing Parties heretofore had, or now or hereafter have, own or hold, or could assert directly or indirectly, against Toshiba in any forum, arising out of or related to (a) the EPC Agreement and any and all related documents, and (b) the Toshiba Guaranty; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 6.7(a) shall release Toshiba or any of the other Toshiba Released Parties from any obligation under any contract or agreement to which it is a party (other than the Toshiba Guaranty), including this Agreement (including under Section 2.5), the Toshiba Promissory Note, any other contract in connection with Toshiba’s or any other Toshiba Released Party’s role as supplier to the Vogtle Facility, and any services agreements entered into by Toshiba and the Owners.
(b)    Effective immediately upon the effectiveness of the release contemplated by Section 6.7(a), Toshiba, on behalf of itself and its present and former agents, Affiliates, principals, shareholders, stakeholders, predecessors, subsidiaries, successors and assigns, excluding the WEC Debtors and any subsidiaries thereof (collectively, the “Toshiba Releasing Parties”, together with the Owner Releasing Parties, the “Releasing Parties”) hereby fully, finally and forever releases, acquits and discharges each of the Owners and each of their respective agents, Affiliates, executives, employees, attorneys, advisors, accountants, auditors, representatives, associates, directors, officers, partners, principals, insurers, predecessors, subsidiaries, successors, estates, heirs, executors, trusts, trustees, administrators, licensees and assigns (collectively, the “Owner Released Parties”, together with the Toshiba Released Parties, the “Released Parties”) from any and all manner of action, causes of action, claims, demands, lawsuits, attorneys’ fees and costs, losses, expenses, damages, right to equitable remedy if such breach gives rise to a right of payment, or liabilities of whatever kind and nature whatsoever, whether now known or unknown, asserted or unasserted, suspected or unsuspected, whether arising under federal, state, local, statutory, common, foreign or administrative Law, or any other Law, rule or regulation, whether fixed or contingent, accrued or unaccrued, liquidated or unliquidated, matured or unmatured, disputed or undisputed, at law or in equity, secured or unsecured that any of the Toshiba Releasing Parties heretofore had, or now or hereafter have, own or hold, or could assert directly or indirectly, against Toshiba in any forum, arising out of or related to (a) the EPC Agreement and any and all related documents, and (b) the Toshiba Guaranty; provided however, that nothing in this Section 6.7(b) shall release any of the Owner Released Parties from any obligation under any other contract or agreement to which it is a party (other than the Toshiba Guaranty), including this Agreement, any other contract in connection with Toshiba’s or any other Toshiba Released Party’s role as supplier to the Vogtle Facility, and any services agreements entered into by Toshiba and the Owners.
(c)    The Releasing Parties are fully aware of the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides as follows:
A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.

20


Each of the Releasing Parties agrees to voluntarily waive the provisions of California Civil Code Section 1542 (or under any Law of any state or territory of the United States, or principle of common law, or under the Law of any foreign country, that is similar, comparable or equivalent to section 1542 of the California Civil Code) with respect to the claims released in Section 6.7(a) and Section 6.7(b). The Releasing Parties acknowledge and agree that the foregoing waiver was separately bargained for and a key element of the Agreement of which this release is a part.
(d)    Covenants Not To Sue
(i)    The Releasing Parties promise not to sue or proceed in any manner, in court, agency or any other proceedings, whether at law, in equity, by way of administrative hearing, or otherwise, or to solicit others to institute any such actions or proceedings, against the Released Parties concerning any of the claims released in this Section 6.7.
(ii)    The releases and covenants not to sue contained in this Section 6.7 may be pleaded as a full and complete defense to, and may be used as the basis for an injunction against, any action, suit or other proceeding which may be instituted in breach of the releases or covenants not to sue.

From and after the earlier of (a) any Forbearance Termination Event (including the expiration without cure of any applicable cure period set forth in clause (d) of the definition of Forbearance Termination Event) and (b) the Forbearance Date, Beneficiary may pursue all of its legal and equitable rights and remedies under the Toshiba Guaranty and Toshiba shall not argue that the terms or existence of this Agreement constitute a defense thereunder; provided, however, that each of the Owners agrees that it shall not, in any event, pursue, assert, or claim any amounts under the Toshiba Guaranty in excess of the Toshiba Obligation Amount and Toshiba agrees that it shall not, in any event, assert or claim that under the Toshiba Guaranty it owes Beneficiary an amount less than the Toshiba Obligation Amount.
Section 8.2    Owner Remedies. From and after a Forbearance Termination Event, in addition to Beneficiary’s rights under Section 8.1, each Owner may (a) by notice to Toshiba, declare all payment obligations of Toshiba under this Agreement to be immediately due and payable, whereupon all such obligations shall accelerate and be immediately due and payable; provided, however, that if a Toshiba Insolvency Proceeding has occurred, no such declaration shall be required and, upon the occurrence of such Toshiba Insolvency Proceeding, all of such obligations shall automatically accelerate and be immediately due and payable, (b) make draws under the Letters of Credit and apply the proceeds thereof to reduce amounts due under this Agreement (including amounts due as a result of the acceleration described in the foregoing clause (a)) or under the Toshiba Guaranty and (c) pursue all of legal and equitable rights and remedies available to it.
Section 8.3    Specific Performance; Remedies Not Exclusive.
(a)    Toshiba agrees that irreparable damage will result if this Agreement is not performed by Toshiba in accordance with its terms, and any damages available at law for a breach of this Agreement would not be an adequate remedy. Therefore, this Agreement and the obligations of Toshiba hereunder shall be enforceable in a court of equity, or other tribunal with jurisdiction, by a decree of specific performance, and appropriate preliminary or permanent injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith (and any requirement to post any bond in connection therewith is hereby waived). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Beneficiary nor any of the Owners may seek a decree of specific performance, or any related preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, with respect to any action (a “Survival Action”) taken by Toshiba that violates Section 5.1 if (i) such action has been approved in advance by Toshiba’s board of directors and (ii) in connection with such approval, Toshiba’s board of directors has determined, in good faith, after consultation with, and receiving the advice of, outside legal counsel, that (A) the failure to take the Survival Action will (x) violate the directors’ fiduciary duties under applicable Law and (y) result in the failure of Toshiba to continue as a going concern and (B) such Survival Action will have the minimum adverse consequence to Beneficiary and the Owners that can be reasonably achieved while also allowing Toshiba to continue as a going concern (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Beneficiary and Owners reserve all rights to pursue all of its legal and equitable rights and remedies under the Toshiba Guaranty; provided, however, that each of the Owners agrees that it shall not, in any event, pursue, assert, or claim

23


any amounts under the Toshiba Guaranty in excess of the Toshiba Obligation Amount). Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 8.3(a), if an action is brought by either the Beneficiary or the Owners to enforce this Agreement, Toshiba shall waive the defense that there is adequate remedy at Law. The limitations set forth in this Section 8.3(a) on seeking a decree of specific performance, or any related preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, shall not mean, and shall not imply, that a violation of Section 5.1 is not a breach of this Agreement and a Forbearance Termination Event triggering the rights and remedies arising therefrom as set forth in this Agreement and at law, which rights and remedies shall be available.
(b)    Each of Beneficiary and the Owners agree that irreparable damage will result if this Agreement is not performed in accordance with its terms, and any damages available at law for a breach of this Agreement would not be an adequate remedy. Therefore, this Agreement and the obligations of each of the Beneficiary and the Owners hereunder shall be enforceable in a court of equity, or other tribunal with jurisdiction, by a decree of specific performance, and appropriate preliminary or permanent injunctive relief may be applied for and granted in connection therewith (and any requirement to post any bond in connection therewith is hereby waived). If an action is brought by Toshiba to enforce this Agreement, Beneficiary and each of the Owners shall waive the defense that there is adequate remedy at Law.
(c)    All remedies provided for in this Agreement or otherwise available at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not exclusive and shall be in addition to any other remedies that a Party may have under this Agreement.
Section 8.4    Attorneys’ Fees. The prevailing Party in any action to enforce this Agreement against any other Party or to recover damages or obtain other remedies for a breach of this Agreement by any other Party shall be entitled to receive from the losing Party any and all costs (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and related expenses) incurred in connection with such action.
Section 8.5    Nuclear Indemnity and Insurance. Subject to Section 8.5(f), while they are owners of the Vogtle Facility and all required authorizations from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission authorizing operation of the Vogtle Facility have been issued and are in effect:
(a)    Owners shall maintain insurance to cover Public Liability Claims as defined in 42 U.S.C. § 2014(w) in such form and in such amount to meet the financial protection requirements of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
(b)    Owners shall maintain a governmental indemnity agreement pursuant to the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, and regulations promulgated pursuant thereto.
(c)    In the event that the financial protection system contemplated by Section 170 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended, is repealed or changed, Owners will maintain in effect liability protection through governmental indemnity, limitation of liability to third parties and/or insurance of comparable coverage which will not result in a material impairment of the protection afforded Toshiba and its Affiliates set forth on Schedule 8.5 hereto

24


by such nuclear liability protection system which is in effect as of the Effective Date (as defined in the EPC Agreement), subject to (i) the availability of insurance, (ii) customary practice in the United States nuclear electric utility industry, and (iii) other relevant factors in light of the then existing conditions. Subject to the foregoing subsections (i), (ii), and (iii) of the immediately preceding sentence, Owners shall ensure that Toshiba and its Affiliates set forth on Schedule 8.5 hereto is included in the omnibus definition of “insured” under such alternate insurance coverage or are otherwise included as additional insureds at no cost to Toshiba or its Affiliates set forth on Schedule 8.5 hereto.
(d)    In no event shall Toshiba or its Affiliates set forth on Schedule 8.5 hereto be responsible to Owners (or any of the owners of VEGP Units 1 and 2) for personal or bodily injury (including death), property damage, loss or damage to any property at the Site and VEGP Units 1 and 2, or for any indirect, special, incidental, punitive or consequential loss, damage or injury, whether or not based on any claim of fault, negligence or strict liability, where any of the foregoing arises out of or results from a Nuclear Incident and Owners hereby release Toshiba and its Affiliates from any such liability.
(e)    Nuclear Property Insurance. Owners shall take reasonable steps to maintain property insurance in reasonable amounts and at reasonable costs with respect to the Facility and the Site and the VEGP Units 1 and 2 sites (and associated structures) as may be available from the existing nuclear property insurance pools (e.g., Nuclear Electric Insurance Limited – NEIL), or other sources and consistent with the then current industry practice, providing protection against physical loss or damage to the Facility and the VEGP site. The limits of insurance shall also be maintained in accordance with the requirements of the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and in a manner and to the extent that property of similar character is usually insured by companies similarly situated to the Owners with like properties. Such insurance shall cover Toshiba and its Affiliates set forth on Schedule 8.5 hereto to the extent of their interest in any loss paid thereunder, and as between Owners and Toshiba and its Affiliates set forth on Schedule 8.5 hereto, Owners hereby waive all rights to proceeds from such insurance and rights of subrogation on behalf of themselves and their insurers for any loss or damage covered by such insurance to the extent of Toshiba’s and its Affiliates’ (such Affiliates set forth on Schedule 8.5 hereto) loss during the Work and thereafter whether liability for such loss or damage arises in contract, tort or otherwise, and irrespective of fault, negligence, strict liability or otherwise.
(f)    Duration. The protection provided pursuant to this Section 8.5 shall be taken out prior to the first delivery of Nuclear Fuel at the Site, and shall remain in effect until the permanent decommissioning of the Facility; provided, however, that upon permanent cessation of operation, the coverages and limits of insurance may be reduced to the extent permitted by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

Section 9.2    Waiver. The failure at any time of a Party to require performance by the other Party of any responsibility or obligation required by this Agreement shall in no way affect a Party’s right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by a Party of a breach of any provision of this Agreement by any other Party constitute a waiver of any other breach of the same or any other provision or constitute a waiver of the responsibility or obligation itself.

27


Section 9.3    Subrogation. Effective upon the full and irrevocable payment to Beneficiary, and receipt by the Owners, of the Toshiba Obligation Amount pursuant to this Agreement, and the Toshiba Promissory Note, after taking into account the effect of any amounts that have been or in the future may be required to be paid or returned by Beneficiary or any other Person as contemplated by Section 2.5, Toshiba shall be entitled to exercise any and all subrogation rights (including, without limitation, any such rights pursuant to Section 509 of the Bankruptcy Code) it may have against Westinghouse arising from a breach by Westinghouse of the EPC Agreement (including rejection thereof pursuant to Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code); provided, however, that Toshiba's claims by way of such subrogation shall be subordinated to all claims of the Owners against Westinghouse and the other WEC Debtors until all such claims of the Owners have been paid in full in cash.
Section 9.4    Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of each Party under this Agreement. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any right or obligation hereunder may be assigned or delegated in whole or in part to any other Person except that Beneficiary and each of the Owners may assign its rights hereunder.
Section 9.5    Third Party Rights. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer, directly or indirectly, upon or give to any Person, other than the Parties, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any covenant, condition or other provision contained herein.
Section 9.6    Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the Laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws thereof.
Section 9.7    Headings. The headings of the Articles and Sections in this Agreement are provided for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof.
Section 5.8    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Exhibits and Schedules hereto, and the letter of even date herewith executed by Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP, as counsel to Toshiba, and Jones Day, as counsel to Georgia Power for itself and as agent for OPC, MEAG and Dalton, constitute the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral and written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement (a) alters or otherwise affects the Letters of Credit (except as provided in Section 6.1 hereof) or the EPC Agreement or any rights or obligations thereunder or (b) alters, amends, or otherwise affects, or constitutes a novation, accord or satisfaction of, the Toshiba Guaranty except as provided in Article II, Article III, Section 6.1 and Section 9.12 hereof.
Section 9.9    Severability. Should any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement be deemed invalid, illegal, void by any rule of Law of any jurisdiction in which it is to be performed or unenforceable for any reason, such term, provision, covenant or restriction shall be deemed null and void, but the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and

28


restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force in all other respects and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the intended economic and legal substance of this Agreement, taken as a whole, is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Should any provision of this Agreement be or become ineffective because of changes in Law or interpretations thereof, or should this Agreement fail to include a provision that is required as a matter of Law, the validity of the other terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby so long as the intended economic and legal substance of this Agreement, taken as a whole, is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, void, omitted or unenforceable or upon such provision being or becoming ineffective, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by Law and in an acceptable manner in order that the matters contemplated hereby be addressed as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
Section 9.10    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
Section 9.11    Further Assurances. Each Party shall execute such instruments and documents and shall give such further assurances as shall be necessary to perform such Party’s obligations hereunder.
Section 9.12    Jurisdiction; Venue. Except as provided below in this Section 9.12 with respect to arbitration, any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the Toshiba Guaranty shall be brought in a federal court or, if jurisdiction cannot lie therein, a state court, in either case located in New York, and each of the Parties hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum; provided, however, that no Party may bring such a suit, action or proceeding with respect to any dispute that is already the subject of an arbitration proceeding that has been commenced as provided below in this Section 9.12.  Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9.12, a provisional attachment, provisional injunction or any other provisional legal remedies to secure a Party’s right or benefit may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in a state or federal court located in New York or in a district court located in Japan, wherever located.  In addition, the Parties agree that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.12, each of the Parties shall, at its option, have the right to submit any dispute arising under, out of or in connection with this Agreement or the Toshiba Guaranty to the International Chamber of Commerce for arbitration in the manner and on the terms provided in Section 4.9(c) of the Toshiba Guaranty; provided, however, that no Party may submit for arbitration any dispute that is already the subject of a suit, action or proceeding that has been brought in a federal or state court in New York as provided above in this Section

29


9.12.  In no event will the requirements of Section 4.9(b) of the Toshiba Guaranty apply. For the avoidance of doubt, Section 4.9(d) of the Toshiba Guaranty will not permit Beneficiary or any of the Owners to seek a decree of specific performance, or any related preliminary or permanent injunctive relief, with respect to this Agreement that, in accordance with the third sentence of Section 8.3(a), may not be sought by Beneficiary or any of the Owners.

EXHIBIT B
Form of Toshiba Promissory Note





 




PROMISSORY NOTE
$                   
[Date]
TOSHIBA CORPORATION, a Japanese corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Maker”), hereby promises to pay to the order of GEORGIA POWER COMPANY, a Georgia corporation, acting for itself and as agent for the other Owners, as defined in the EPC Agreement (as defined in the Settlement Agreement referred to below) (together with its successors and assigns, the “Payee”), the principal sum of $                   , or so much thereof as may be outstanding, together with interest thereon to be computed from the date hereof (the “Date of Issuance”) in accordance with the provisions of this Promissory Note (this “Note”).
1.Related Agreement. The Maker, the Payee and the other Owners are parties to the Settlement Agreement, dated as of [l], 2017 (as the same may from time to time be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Settlement Agreement”). This Note is the “Toshiba Promissory Note” referenced in the Settlement Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Note and the Settlement Agreement, the terms of the Settlement Agreement shall control.
2.Payment of Interest.
(a)Interest. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, interest shall accrue on the principal amount outstanding under this Note from time to time (the “Principal Balance”) from and including the Date of Issuance until paid in full in cash at a rate per annum equal to 2.00%. Interest shall be due and payable semi-annually on the last day of each June and December from and after the Date of Issuance and on the Maturity Date (as defined below). Any accrued interest which is not paid on the date on which it is due and payable in the manner provided herein shall bear interest at the same rate at which interest is then accruing on the principal amount of this Note until such time as payment therefor is actually delivered to the holder of this Note. Any accrued interest which for any reason has not theretofore been paid shall be paid in full in cash on the date on which the final principal payment on this Note is made. Interest shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year consisting of 365 or, if applicable, 366 days.
(b)Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then the interest rate on this Note shall increase automatically by an increment of 2.00% (“Default Interest”) effective as of the date of the occurrence of such Event of Default. All Default Interest shall be payable in cash on demand. Any increase of the interest rate resulting from the operation of this paragraph shall terminate as of the close of business on the date on which no Event of Default exists (subject to subsequent increases pursuant to this subsection).
3.Payment of Principal.
(a)Maturity Date. The entire principal amount of this Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other sums evidenced by this Note, shall, if not sooner paid, be due and payable on the tenth anniversary of the Date of Issuance (the “Maturity Date”).
(b)Optional Payments; No Reserves. The Maker may, at any time and from time to time, upon three days’ prior notice to the Payee, prepay all or any portion of the outstanding principal amount of this Note. In connection with each prepayment of principal hereunder, the Maker shall also pay all

 




accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of this Note being repaid. Prepayments shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest on this Note and second to principal. Amounts outstanding under this Note that are repaid may not be re-borrowed.
4.Record of Payment. The Payee shall record the amount of any principal, interest or other payment and the applicable dates with respect thereto, by such method as the Payee may generally employ, and such records of the Payee shall be rebuttably presumptive evidence of the principal and interest owing and unpaid hereunder; provided, however, that failure to make any such entry shall in no way detract from the Maker’s obligations hereunder.
5.Replacement. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Maker (an affidavit of the Payee shall be satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Note and, in the case of any such loss, theft or destruction, upon receipt of an indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Maker, or, in the case of any such mutilation, upon the surrender of this Note to the Maker at the address specified for notices in Section 12 of this Note, the Maker shall (at its expense) execute and deliver, in lieu thereof, a new Note of the same class and representing the same rights represented by such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note and dated so that there will be no loss of interest on this Note.
6.Payments. Any payment hereunder received by the Payee after 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any day, will be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding day. All payments to be made to the Payee under this Note shall be made in the lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds without setoff, counterclaim or deduction, including, without limitation, any deduction or withholding for or on account of any tax imposed upon any Owner, the Payee or the Maker unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, then in effect. If the Maker is so required to deduct or withhold, then the Maker will (a) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld (including the full amount of tax required to be deducted or withheld from any additional amount paid by the Maker to any Owner or the Payee hereunder) promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such an amount has been assessed against any Owner or the Payee, and in any event before penalties attach thereto or interest accrues thereon, (b) promptly forward to the Owners an official receipt (or certified copy), or other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Owners, evidencing such payment to such authorities and (c) in addition to the payment which any Owner or the Payee is otherwise entitled under this Note, if such withholding is on account of any tax imposed upon the Maker, pay to the Owners and the Payee such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Owners and the Payee (free and clear of taxes assessed against the Maker) will equal the full amount the Owners and the Payee would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required. If (i) the Maker is required to make any deduction or withholding on account of any tax from any payment made by it under this Note, (ii) the Maker does not make the deduction or withholding, and (iii) a liability for or on account of the tax is therefore assessed directly against any Owner or the Payee, the Maker shall pay to the Owners and the Payee, promptly after deemed, the amount of the liability (including any related liability for interest or penalties).
7.Place of Payment. All payments owing to the Payee shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Payee to the following account:
Bank:                         
ABA:                         
Account #:                     
Account Name:                 


 




or to such other account or to the attention of such other person as specified in a prior written notice from the Payee to the Maker.
8.Representations and Warranties. The Maker makes the following representations and warranties as of the Date of Issuance:
(a)the Maker is a corporation in good standing under the laws of Japan and has legal power and right to execute and deliver this Note and to perform and observe the provisions of this Note;
(b)by executing and delivering this Note and by performing and observing the provisions of this Note, the Maker will not violate any existing provision of its charter or other governing documents or any applicable law or violate or otherwise become in default under any existing contract, including any agreements for borrowed money, or other obligation or any law or regulation, or any writ, order or decree of any court or governmental or regulatory authority binding upon the Maker;
(c)the officers executing and delivering this Note on behalf of the Maker have been duly authorized to do so, and this Note, when executed, is legally binding upon the Maker in every respect, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws for the protection of debtors; and
(d)no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
9.[Reserved]
10.Events of Default. If any of the following (each, an “Event of Default”) shall occur:
(a)Maker shall fail to pay any (i) interest on this Note when due or (ii) principal of this Note or other amounts payable by the Maker hereunder, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether upon demand, at the stated due date thereof or by acceleration thereof or otherwise;
(b)the breach by the Maker of any of the terms or covenants set forth in this Note;
(c)any representation or warranty made or deemed made by the Maker to the Payee under this Note shall have been incorrect when made or deemed made; or
(d)any Forbearance Termination Event (as defined in the Settlement Agreement);
then, and in every such event (other than an Event of Default that has occurred as a result of a Toshiba Insolvency Proceeding (as defined in the Settlement Agreement)), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Payee may, by notice to the Maker, declare this Note to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of this Note so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all obligations of the Maker accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately; and in case of any Event of Default that has occurred as a result of a Toshiba Insolvency Proceeding, the principal of this Note then outstanding, together with accrued interest thereon and all obligations of the Maker accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable.
11.Payments Set Aside. To the extent that the Payee receives a payment from or on behalf of the Maker from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or

 




required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligations or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.

13.Governing Law; Jurisdiction and Venue.
(a)This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.
(b)Except as provided below in this Section 13(b) with respect to arbitration, any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Note shall be brought in a federal court or, if jurisdiction cannot lie therein, a state court, in either case located in New York, and each of the Parties hereby consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum; provided, however, that neither the Maker nor the Payee may bring such a suit, action or proceeding with respect to any dispute that is already the subject of an arbitration proceeding that has been commenced as provided below in this Section 13(b). Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on the Maker or the Payee anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13(b), a provisional attachment, provisional injunction or any other provisional legal remedies to secure the Maker’s or the Payee’s right or benefit may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in a state or federal court located in New York or in a district court located in Japan, wherever located. In addition, the

 




Maker and the Payee agree that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 13(b), the Maker and the Payee each shall, at its option, have the right to submit any dispute arising under, out of or in connection with this Note to the International Chamber of Commerce for arbitration in the manner and on the terms provided in Section 4.9(c) of the Toshiba Guaranty; provided, however, that neither the Maker nor the Payee may submit for arbitration any dispute that is already the subject of a suit, action or proceeding that has been brought in a federal or state court in New York as provided above in this Section 13(b). In no event will the requirements of Section 4.9(b) of the Toshiba Guaranty apply.
14.Usury Laws. It is the intention of the Maker and the Payee to conform strictly to all applicable usury laws now or hereafter in force, and any interest payable under this Note shall be subject to reduction to the amount not in excess of the maximum legal amount allowed under the applicable usury laws as now or hereafter construed by the courts having jurisdiction over such matters. If the maturity of this Note is accelerated by reason of an election by the holder hereof resulting from an Event of Default, voluntary prepayment by the Maker or otherwise, then earned interest may never include more than the maximum amount permitted by law, computed from the date hereof until payment, and any interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by law shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, shall at the option of the holder hereof either be rebated to the Maker or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been paid, then the excess shall be rebated to the Maker. The aggregate of all interest (whether designated as interest, service charges, points or otherwise) contracted for, chargeable, or receivable under this Note shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum legal rate upon the unpaid principal balance of this Note remaining unpaid from time to time. If such interest does exceed the maximum legal rate, it shall be deemed a mistake and such excess shall be canceled automatically and, if theretofore paid, rebated to the Maker or credited on the principal amount of this Note, or if this Note has been repaid, then such excess shall be rebated to the Maker.
15.No Implied Waiver; Amendments. No failure nor delay on the part of the Payee to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Note, and no course of dealing between the Maker, on the one hand, and the Payee, on the other hand, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Note preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No notice to or demand on the Maker in any case shall entitle the Maker to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, or constitute a waiver of the right of the holder of this Note to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. The remedies provided in this Note are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Note, nor consent to any departure by the Maker therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing, specifically refer to this Note, and be signed by the Maker and the Payee, and then such amendment or waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. A waiver on any such occasion shall not be construed as a bar to, or waiver of, any such right or remedy on any future occasion.
16.Severability. If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Note are invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality or enforceability of all the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired. If any one or more provisions contained in this Note are deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable because of their scope or breadth, such provisions shall be reformed and replaced with provisions (i) whose scope and breadth are valid under applicable law and (ii) that come as close as possible to reflecting the original intent of the Maker and the Payee as of the Date of Issuance in respect of the provisions deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable.
17.Transfer; Assignment. This Note shall bind the Maker and the Maker’s successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Payee and its successors and assigns. Neither this Note nor the obligations of the Maker under this Note may be assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, by the Maker

 




without the prior written consent of the Payee. Any such assignment or transfer without the prior written consent of the Payee shall be void. The Payee may assign or transfer (including granting participation interests in), in whole or in part, its rights and obligations under this Note without further consent from the Maker. The Maker agrees to execute any documents reasonably requested by the Payee in connection with any such assignment or transfer.
18.Waiver of Right to Jury Trial. EACH OF THE MAKER AND THE PAYEE HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY PARTICIPATE IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE, WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, BETWEEN THE PAYEE AND THE MAKER ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, RELATED TO, OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED BETWEEN THEM IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE OR THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION WITH THIS NOTE OR THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO. EACH OF THE MAKER AND THE PAYEE HEREBY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PERSON HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PERSON WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT AND THIS NOTE BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS OF EACH OF THE MAKER AND THE PAYEE UNDER THIS NOTE OR THE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT, AS APPLICABLE.
19.Miscellaneous. This Note constitutes a final written expression of all of the terms of this instrument, is a complete and exclusive statement of those terms and supersedes all oral representations, negotiations and prior writings, if any, with respect to the subject matter hereof. The relationship between the Maker and the Payee with respect to this Note is and shall be solely that of debtor and creditor, respectively, and the Payee shall have no fiduciary obligation toward the Maker with respect to this Note or the transactions contemplated hereby. Any amendment or waiver hereof or any waiver of any right or remedy otherwise available must be in writing and signed by the party against whom enforcement of the amendment or waiver is sought. The Maker waives presentment, demand, notice, protest, and all other demands and notices in connection with delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement of this Note.
20.Judgment Currency. If the Payee obtains a judgment or judgments against the Maker in any currency of a country other than the United States of America (such other currency is hereinafter referred to as “Foreign Currency”), the obligations of the Maker in respect of any sum adjudged to be due to the Payee under this Note (the “Judgment Amount”) shall be discharged only to the extent that, on the day following receipt by the Payee of the Judgment Amount in the Foreign Currency, the Payee may purchase United States dollars with the Judgment Amount in such Foreign Currency. If the amount of United States dollars so purchased is less than the amount of United States dollars that could have been purchased with the Judgment Amount on the date or dates the Judgment Amount (excluding the portion of the Judgment Amount which has accrued as a result of the failure of the Maker to pay the sum originally due hereunder or under this Note when it was originally due hereunder or under this Note) was originally due and owing (the “Original Due Date”) to the Payee hereunder (the “Loss”), the Maker agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Payee against the loss, and if the amount of United States dollars so purchased exceeds the amount of United States dollars that could have been purchased with the Judgment Amount on the Original Due Date, the Payee agrees to remit such excess to the Maker.
