Guaranteed Obligations Not Reduced by Offset The Guaranteed Obligations and the liabilities and obligations of Guarantor to Lender hereunder, shall not be reduced, discharged or released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense of Borrower, or any other party, against Lender or against payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether such offset, claim or defense arises in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations (or the transactions creating the Guaranteed Obligations) or otherwise.
Definition of Guaranteed Obligations As used herein, the term “Guaranteed Obligations” means:
Guaranteed Obligations The Guarantor, in consideration of the execution and delivery of the Note Purchase Agreement and the purchase of the Notes by the Purchasers, hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely guarantees, on a continuing basis, to each Noteholder as and for the Guarantor’s own debt, until final and indefeasible payment of the amounts referred to in clause (a) below has been made:
(a) the due and punctual payment by the Company of the principal of, and the Make-Whole Amount (if any) and interest on, the Notes at any time outstanding and the due and punctual payment of all other amounts payable, and all other Indebtedness owing, by the Company to the Noteholders under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes (including, without limitation, any monetary obligations incurred during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up, receivership or other similar proceeding regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding including, without limitation, interest accrued on the Notes during any such proceeding), in each case when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, pursuant to mandatory or optional prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise, all in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof; it being the intent of the Guarantor that the guarantee set forth herein shall be a continuing guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection; and
(b) the punctual and faithful performance, keeping, observance, and fulfillment by the Company of all duties, agreements, covenants and obligations of the Company contained in the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes. All of the obligations set forth in clause (a) and clause (b) of this Section 2.1 are referred to herein as the “Guaranteed Obligations.”
Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding (“Post Petition Interest”)) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations.
Limitation on Guaranteed Obligations (a) Notwithstanding any provision herein contained to the contrary, each Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall be limited to an amount not to exceed as of any date of determination the greater of:
(i) the amount of all Guaranteed Obligations, plus interest thereon at the applicable Interest Rate as specified in the Note; and
(ii) the amount which could be claimed by the Collateral Agent from any Guarantor under this Guaranty without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law after taking into account, among other things, Guarantor’s right of contribution and indemnification.
(b) Each Guarantor agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the guaranty hereunder or affecting the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer hereunder or under applicable law.
(c) No payment made by the Company, any Guarantor, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Collateral Agent or any other Buyer from the Company, any of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in payment of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than any payment made by such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations), remain liable for the Guaranteed Obligations up to the maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until after all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have been Paid in Full.
