Item 2.04. Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation.
On July 18, 2014, Midway Gold Corp.’s (the “Company”) affiliate MDW Pan LLP, as borrower entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Commonwealth Bank of Australia (“CBA”), as administrative agent, collateral agent and the initial lender for the purpose of establishing an aggregate U.S.$55 million senior secured credit facility consisting of, (i) a U.S.$45 million project finance facility (“Project Finance Facility”) and (ii) a U.S.$10 million cost overrun facility (the “Overrun Facility” together with the Project Finance Facility is collectively referred to herein as, the “Debt Facility”). The Debt Facility (which was reduced to U.S.$53 million as a result of a Credit Agreement amendment to reduce the Project Finance Facility to U.S.$43 million in December 2014) is secured by substantially all of the assets of the borrower (MDW Pan LLP, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and the owner of the Pan project and related assets) and all other entities of the consolidated group. MDW PAN LLP has drawn U.S.$47.5 million under the Debt Facility. MDW PAN LLP also terminated its forward gold sales, interest rate swaps and fuel hedges that were part of the Risk Management Program under the Debt Facilities. The termination of these programs resulted in a obligation of approximately U.S.$1.1 million due by June 30, 2015.
On March 13, 2015, MDW Pan LLP, as borrower, and CBA, as administrative agent, collateral agent, technical agent and initial lender, and the other lenders named in the Credit Agreement entered into a waiver with respect to certain provisions of the Credit Agreement (the “Waiver”). The Waiver, among other things, (i) granted MDW Pan LLP a temporary waiver of the covenants set forth in Section 7.01(y) of the Credit Agreement until April 20, 2015, which requires that MDW Pan LLP not, directly or indirectly, to fail the Cost to Complete Test (as defined in the Credit Agreement) or the Time to Complete Test for more than thirty (30) consecutive days. Any failure to satisfy the Cost to Complete Test or the Time to Complete Test following the expiration of the Waiver continued to be subject to the thirty (30) day cure period contemplated by Section 7.01(y) of the Credit Agreement. The Waiver did not amend the covenants, tests or obligations related to the Debt Facility or ongoing compliance with its terms.
As of May 20, 2015, the waiver had expired. On May 23, 2015, CBA provided the Company a Notice of Event of Default and Reservation of Rights (the “Notice”). The Notice alleges that an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is Continuing as a result of the Borrower’s failure to satisfy the Cost to Complete Test and/or the Time to Complete Test for more than thirty (30) consecutive days following the expiration of the Waiver entered into in connection therewith and set forth in the waiver letter, dated March 13, 2015 (the “Specified Event of Default”).
Under the Notice, CBA claims to reserve all rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties arising under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to the Specified Event of Default, including, without limitation, the right to (i) require the Borrower to pay interest on the Outstanding Amount and all other amounts due under the Loan Documents at the Default Rate in accordance with Section 2.06(b) of the Credit Agreement, (ii) declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing and payable under the Credit Agreement or under any other Loan Document to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind in accordance with Section 12.02(a) of the Credit agreement, (iii) require the Borrower to pay all fees and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of their rights under the Loan Documents in accordance with Section 15.04(a) of the Credit Agreement, and (iv) exercise all other rights and remedies available under the Loan Documents and applicable law.

MIDWAY GOLD Provides Corporate update
DENVER, CO – May 26, 2015 – Midway Gold Corp. (TSX and NYSE-MKT: MDW) (the “Company” or “Midway”) remains in active discussions with its Senior Lender regarding strategic partnerships, asset sale opportunities and debt refinancing opportunities. As previously disclosed, the terms of a waiver with regard to the Senior Debt have lapsed and the Company remains in discussions to obtain additional waivers. The Company’s Senior Lender has provided the Company with a notice alleging an event of default based on the non-monetary conditions which were previously waived. The notice does not invoke or demand any specific remedies but states that it reserves all rights. Midway believes the notice is intended to document the conditions as viewed by Senior Lender and, while there can be no assurances, we will continue working toward maximizing value for our stakeholders by pursuing our strategic alternatives.

Other risks, uncertainties and factors include, without limitation, risks related to the timing and completion of the Company's intended work plans, potential delay of material deliveries, ability to meet debt covenants and obligations, risks related to fluctuations in gold prices; uncertainties related to raising financing in a timely manner and on acceptable terms; changes in planned work resulting from weather, logistical, technical or other factors; the possibility that results of work will not fulfill expectations and realize the perceived potential of the Company's properties; uncertainties involved in the interpretation of drilling results and other tests and the estimation of gold resources and reserves; the possibility that required permits may not be obtained on a timely manner or at all; the possibility that capital and operating costs may be higher than currently estimated and may preclude commercial development or render operations uneconomic; the possibility that the estimated recovery rates and production may not be achieved; risk of accidents, equipment breakdowns and labor disputes or other unanticipated difficulties or interruptions; the possibility of cost overruns or unanticipated expenses in the work program; changes in interest and currency exchanges rates; local and community impacts and issues; environmental costs and risks; and other factors identified in the Company's SEC filings and its filings with Canadian securities regulatory authorities. Forward-looking statements are based on the beliefs, opinions and expectations of the Company's management at the time they are made, and other than as required by applicable securities laws, the Company does not assume any obligation to update its forward-looking statements if those beliefs, opinions or expectations, or other circumstances, should change.
