If the Purchaser receives any Payment Blockage Notice pursuant to clause (b) above, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice shall be effective for purposes of this Section 11.2 unless and until (i) at least three hundred sixty-five (365) days shall have elapsed since the initial effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice and (ii) all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Note that have come due have been paid in full in cash. No Non-Payment Default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Purchaser shall be, or be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice. The Company may and shall resume payments on and distributions in respect of the Note upon: (1) in the case of a Payment Default, the earlier of (i) the date upon which any such Payment Default is cured or waived or ceases to exist or the underlying indebtedness has been repaid or (ii) two hundred seventy (270) days after such Payment Default, or (2) in the case of a Non-Payment Default, the earlier of (i) the date upon which such default is cured or waived or ceases to exist or (ii) one hundred seventy-nine (179) days after the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received by the Purchaser if the maturity of such Designated Senior Indebtedness has not been accelerated and no Payment Default with respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness has occurred which has not been cured or waived (in which case clause (1) shall be applicable) or (iii) the Person who declared such Payment Blockage approves such payment, unless this Section 11 otherwise prohibits the payment or distribution at the time of such payment or distribution. Upon any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all amounts due or to become due upon all Senior Indebtedness shall first be paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, or payment thereof in accordance with its terms provided for in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness before any payment is made on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Note, and upon any such dissolution or winding up or liquidation or reorganization of the Company or bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceeding, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Purchaser would be entitled, except for the provisions of this Section 11, shall (except as aforesaid) be paid by the Company or by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by the Purchaser if received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness (pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, or as otherwise required by law or a court order) or their Representative or Representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Purchaser. For purposes of this Section 11, the words, "cash, property or securities" shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment, the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Section 11 with respect to the Note to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness which may at the time be outstanding. In the event of the acceleration of the Note because of an Event of Default, no payment or distribution shall be made to the Purchaser in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Note, until all Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or such acceleration is rescinded in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If payment of the Note is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company shall promptly notify holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness of the acceleration. In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including, without limitation, by way of setoff or otherwise), prohibited by the foregoing provisions in this Section 11.2, shall be received by the Purchaser before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, or provision is made for such payment thereof in accordance with its terms in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their Representative or Representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing any Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of any Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash or other payment satisfactory to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.
