Related to Additional Guaranty Provisions

• Additional Guarantor Each additional Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Borrower which becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to §5.5.

• Additional Guarantors (a) If, as of the date of the most recently available financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a) or (b), as the case may be, any Subsidiary shall have become a Material Domestic Subsidiary (or shall be otherwise designated as a Material Domestic Subsidiary by the Borrower hereunder or under the Term Loan Agreement) or any Person shall have become a Material Foreign Subsidiary (or shall be otherwise designated as a Material Foreign Subsidiary by the Borrower hereunder or under the Term Loan Agreement), then the Borrower shall: (i) In the case of any such Subsidiary that becomes (or is so designated as) a Material Domestic Subsidiary, within 30 days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after delivery of such financial statements, (1) cause such Material Domestic Subsidiary to enter into a Guaranty, or, if a Guaranty has previously been entered into by a Material Domestic Subsidiary (and remains in effect), a joinder agreement to such Guaranty in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (2) deliver to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender all documentation and other information required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable “know-your-customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act and (3) (x) deliver to the Administrative Agent any certificates representing the Collateral consisting of Equity Interests issued by such Material Domestic Subsidiary (to the extent such Equity Interests are certificated) and Equity Interests owned by such Material Domestic Subsidiary (to the extent such Equity Interests are certificated and other than Excluded Collateral), (y) deliver to the Administrative Agent such joinder agreements, amendments and supplements to the relevant Security Documents or such other documents as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary or advisable to grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a Lien on the Collateral owned by such Material Domestic Subsidiary (other than Excluded Collateral) and (z) take all actions necessary to cause such Lien to be duly perfected to the extent required by the Security Documents in accordance with all applicable laws. (ii) In the case of any Person that becomes (or is so designated as) a Material Foreign Subsidiary, within 90 days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may agree in its sole discretion) after delivery of such financial statements, (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent such amendments and supplements to the relevant Security Documents or such additional Security Documents (including a Non-U.S. Pledge Agreement) as the Administrative Agent shall deem necessary or advisable to grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Secured Parties, a Lien on the Collateral consisting of the Equity Interests issued by such Material Foreign Subsidiary (other than Excluded Collateral) and (ii) take all actions necessary to cause such Lien to be duly perfected to the extent required by the Security Documents in accordance with all applicable laws. For the avoidance of doubt, no Domestic Subsidiary shall be required to become a Guarantor merely due to its ownership of Equity Interests in any Domestic Subsidiary that owns real property. (b) If requested by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall receive an opinion of counsel for the Borrower (or local counsel to the Administrative Agent to the extent customary in an Applicable Foreign Jurisdiction) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in respect of matters reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent relating to any Guaranty or joinder agreement or the amendments and supplements to the Security Documents or additional Security Documents delivered pursuant to this Section, dated as of the date of such Guaranty or joinder agreement, amendments and supplements or additional Security Documents. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower and the Guarantors shall not be required, nor shall the Administrative Agent be authorized, (A) to take any additional steps to perfect the above described pledges and security interests by any means other than by (1) filings pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code in the office of the secretary of state (or similar central filing office) of the relevant State(s) and filings with the USPTO and the USCO and (2) delivery to the Administrative Agent to be held in its possession of all Collateral consisting of stock certificates evidencing Equity Interests issued by the Guarantors (other than Holdings) and Material Foreign Subsidiaries, in each case as expressly required herein or by the Loan Documents, (B) to take any action with respect to any assets located outside of the United States other than, with respect to the pledge of the Equity Interests of any Material Foreign Subsidiary, the jurisdiction of organization of such Material Foreign Subsidiary (such jurisdiction, the “Applicable Foreign Jurisdiction”) (it being understood that there shall be no security agreements, pledge agreements or other Security Documents that will be governed under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction other than, with respect to the pledge of the Equity Interests of any Material Foreign Subsidiary, the Applicable Foreign Jurisdiction), (C) to make or authorize any filings with respect to intellectual property other than filings with the USPTO and the USCO, (D) to enter into any control agreement with respect to any Collateral or (E) to require the amendment of any limited liability company agreements or other organizational documents for any Subsidiary of the Borrower, the certification of uncertificated securities or the delivery of any director resignation letters in respect of any Foreign Subsidiaries.

• Additional Guarantees If the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries organize, acquire or otherwise create or invest in another Person that is or becomes a Domestic Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, then the Company shall cause such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor to: (1) execute and deliver to the Trustee a supplemental indenture in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee pursuant to which such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary shall unconditionally guarantee on a senior secured basis all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and this Indenture on the terms set forth in this Indenture; (2) execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent, amendments to the Collateral Agreements and take such other actions as the Collateral Agent deems reasonably necessary in order to grant to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Holders, a perfected Lien in the assets, including the filing of UCC financing statements in such jurisdictions as may be required by the Collateral Agreements, by law or as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent; (3) take such further action and execute and deliver such other documents specified in this Indenture or otherwise reasonably requested by the Trustee to effectuate the foregoing; and (4) deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel that such supplemental indenture and Note Guarantee, and amendments to the Collateral Agreements and any other documents required to be delivered have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary and constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary and such other opinions regarding the perfection of such Liens in the assets of such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary. Thereafter, such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary shall be a Guarantor for all purposes of this Indenture.

• Joinder of Additional Guarantors The Pledgors shall cause each Subsidiary of the Borrower which, from time to time, after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the provisions of the Credit Agreement, (a) to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A to the Guaranty and (ii) a Perfection Certificate, in each case, within thirty (30) days of the date on which it was acquired or created or (b) in the case of a Subsidiary organized outside of the United States required to pledge any assets to the Administrative Agent, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request and, in each case with respect to clauses (a) and (b) above and, in each case, upon such execution and delivery, such Subsidiary shall constitute a “Guarantor” and a “Pledgor” for all purposes hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor and Pledgor herein. The execution and delivery of such Joinder Agreement shall not require the consent of any Pledgor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Pledgor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor and Pledgor as a party to this Agreement.

• Personal Guaranty If the tenant’s business is not credible then the landlord should consider having the tenant sign a Personal Guaranty which binds the owner of the Company to the lease. So if the tenant defaults the individual’s assets would be liable, not just the business. Step 9 – Determine the Security Deposit Once the tenant has been approved by the landlord the Security Deposit should be made known to the tenant. In residential real estate, there are State Laws that limit how much a landlord may ask from the tenant. In commercial real estate, there are no limits to how much the landlord would like to charge the tenant. The landlord will commonly ask between 2-3 months rent in case the tenant stops paying the monthly rent or to safeguard against any damage that the tenant may cause during their time on the property. Step 10 – Write the Commercial Lease Agreement Use an attorney or draft the lease yourself. Make sure to gather all the information about the property and the tenant and enter into the agreement. Once completed, the document should be signed with the tenant and landlord in the presence of a notary public. This way the signatures are proven and the agreement is much more likely to hold up in court if its legality is ever questioned. Step 11 – Taking Occupancy After the security deposit has cleared and the lease has been signed the tenant should take occupancy. This means that the tenant can begin using the space as directed for use in the lease. Both parties will be held accountable for their specified duties until the end of the lease term. Estoppel Certificate – May be requested by the landlord after lease signing to certify a lease exists between the tenant and landlord. Required Clauses American’s with Disability Act (42 U.S. Code § 12183) – Also known as the ‘ADA’, requires that any commercial tenants which offer “public accommodation” (such as a restaurant, retail store, etc.) or have at least fifteen (15) employees adhere to all handicap access rules. This rule is only grandfathered to properties that have not been built or had renovations since 1992. Per 42 U.S. Code § 12183 if the Lessee is using the Premises as a public accommodation (e.g. restaurants, shopping centers, office buildings) or there are more than 15 employees the Premises must provide accommodations and access to persons with disabilities that is equal or similar to that available to the general public. Owners, operators, lessors, and lessees of commercial properties are all responsible for ADA compliance. If the Premises is not in compliance with the Americans with Disability Act any modifications or construction will be the responsibility of the Lessor. Hazard Waste (42 U.S. Code § 6901) – Forces the tenant to sign in writing that they will adhere to any federal, State, or local laws in regards to the disposal of hazardous wastes. “Shall mean any and all federal, state, or local laws, ordinances, rules, decrees, orders, regulations, or court decisions relating to hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous waste, toxic substances, environmental conditions on, under, or about the Premises, the Building, or the Property, or soil and ground water conditions, including, but not limited to, the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA), the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA), the Hazardous Materials Transportation Act, any other law or legal requirement concerning hazardous or toxic substances, and any amendments to the foregoing.” Other Lease Terms In addition, there may be other areas of the lease, outside of the monthly rent, that the parties may want to negotiate such as: Option to Renew – Use if the tenant would like to have the option to stay in the property for a longer time then they may request an ‘Option to Renew’ the lease. This gives them the right to extend the lease for a specified rental price if they want. Option to Purchase – Use if the tenant would like the option to purchase the property for a specified price during the course of their lease. First (1st)
