"If Mercator were being "reimbursed" at say 25% of NRI - that would be roughly $500K yr and would pay off Mercator in about 10 years."

Cmon, no mention of the deal as a 'reimbursement' scenario but the % nymex deduction would have been calculated over a contractual period with the slate ultimately clean for AKK. Important detail. In most contracts the duration would be part of basic terms and 'releaseable' I would have thought.
