As per the original agreement, it is anticipated that the European Investment Bank ("EIB") will assume the senior finance contract from Cordiant in the near future. Both loans have a term of seven years. Semi-annual principal repayments start after the initial two-year period when only interest payments are required. The Senior Loan carries an interest rate of $US six-month LIBOR plus 6.5%. The Subordinated Loan's rate is $US six-month LIBOR plus 9.5%.

James Tuer, Hudson's President, stated, "We are very pleased that we have been able to complete the debt financing of our White Mountain project. It has been a lengthy process to structure the financing between the various jurisdictions involved. In an effort to complete the financing this summer, we decided it was necessary to engage only one lender initially. As such, Cordiant agreed to commit to the senior loan until the EIB assumes the Senior Loan this fall."
