2.5.8 Immediate recourse. Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights, security or other guaranty or claim payment from any other Obligor or any other person before claiming from the Guarantor under this Guaranty.

2.5.9 Appropriations. Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Loan Documents have been irrevocably and indefeasibly paid in full, Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

(i)

refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security, guaranties or rights held or received by Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Guarantor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

(ii)

hold in a suspense account any moneys received from any Guarantor or on account of that Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty without liability to pay interest on those moneys.

2.5.10 Non-competition.

(i)

unless Lender otherwise consents or directs in writing. Each Guarantor shall hold in trust for and forthwith pay or transfer to Lender (or as directed by Lender) any payment or distribution or benefit of security received by the contrary to this Section 2.5.10.

2.5.11 Additional security. This Guaranty is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guaranty or security now or subsequently held by Lender.

2.5.12 Election of remedies. Each Guarantor understands that the exercise by Lender of certain rights and remedies contained in the Loan Documents may affect or eliminate the Guarantor’s right of subrogation and reimbursement against the other Obligors and that the Guarantor may therefore incur a partially or totally reimbursable liability under this Guaranty. Each Guarantor expressly authorizes Lender to pursue its rights and remedies with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations in any order or fashion it deems appropriate, in its sole and discretion, and waives any defense arising out of the absence, impairment, or loss of any or all rights of recourse, reimbursement, contribution, exoneration or subrogation or any other rights or remedies of the Guarantor against any other Obligor, any other person or any security, whether resulting from any election of rights or remedies by Lender, or otherwise.

Each Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that the Guarantor is affiliated with each other Obligor and is otherwise in a position to have access to all relevant information bearing on the present and continuing creditworthiness of each other Obligor and the risk that any other Obligor will be unable to pay the Guaranteed Obligations when due. Each Guarantor waives any requirement that Lender advise the Guarantor of information known to Lender regarding the financial condition or business of any other Obligor, or any other circumstance bearing on the risk of non-performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, and each Guarantor assumes sole responsibility for keeping informed of the financial condition and business of each other Obligor.

2.5.14 Waiver of subrogation. Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.5.10 (Non-competition) above to the contrary, each Obligor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, for the benefit of the Lender, and agrees not to claim or assert after Lender has exercised its rights under any of the Loan Documents, any right of subrogation, contribution or indemnity the Obligor may have against any other of the Obligors as a result of any payment under this Guaranty or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations until after such time as all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Loan Documents have been irrevocably and indefeasibly paid in full.

2.5.15 No marshaling. Except to the extent required by applicable law, Lender will not be required to marshal any collateral securing, or any guaranties of, the Guaranteed Obligations, or to resort to any item of collateral or any guaranty in any particular order, and Lender’s rights with respect of any collateral and guaranties will be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor irrevocably waives, and agrees that it will not invoke or assert, any law requiring or relating to the marshaling of collateral or guaranties or any other law which might cause a delay in or impede the enforcement of Lender’s rights under this Guaranty or any other agreement.

Section 3.3 Financial Condition.

Section 8.5 Construction. This Agreement and the Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of Florida without regard to its conflict of law rules and any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement may be commenced and maintained in any court of competent subject matter jurisdiction in Miami-Dade County, Florida, and any objection to such jurisdiction and venue is hereby expressly waived.

Section 8.6 Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each Obligor and the Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, provided that no Obligor may assign any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Lender, which may be arbitrarily withheld, and any such assignment will be void.

Section 8.7 Limit on Interest. Anything herein or in the Note to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Obligors under this Agreement and the Note to the Lender shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest to the Lender shall not be required to the extent that receipt of any such payment by the Lender would be contrary to provisions of law applicable to the Lender (if any) which limit the maximum rate of interest which may be charged or collected by the Lender; provided however, that nothing herein shall be construed to limit the Lender to presently existing maximum rates of interest, if any increased interest rate is hereafter permitted by reason of applicable federal or state legislation.

Section 8.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed to an original and all of which when taken together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 8.9 Headings. The headings are for convenience only and are not to affect the construction of or to be taken into account in interpreting the substance of this Agreement.

Section 8.10 Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.

Section 8.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement is intended by the parties as a final expression of their agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and is intended as a complete and exclusive statement of the terms and conditions thereof, and this Agreement supersedes and replaces all prior negotiations and agreements between the parties hereto, or any

of them, whether oral or written. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that no other party, agent or attorney of any other party, has made any promise, representation or warranty whatsoever, expressed or implied, not contained herein concerning the subject matter hereof to induce the other party to execute this Agreement or any of the other documents referred to herein, and each party hereto acknowledges that it has not executed this Agreement or such other documents in reliance upon any such promise, representation or warranty not contained herein.

Section 8.12 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other documents and instruments executed herewith and contemplated by this Agreement, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on the subject matter hereof. The Obligors further release and discharge Lender from and against any and all liability with respect to all prior agreements and preliminary commitments. The Loan Documents were drafted with the joint participation of Obligors and Lender, and their respective counsel, and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any of them, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.

Section 8.13 Course of Dealing; Amendment; Supplemental Agreements. No course of dealing between the Lender and Obligors shall be effective to amend, modify or change any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement or any document executed in connection herewith, may not be amended, modified, or changed in any respect except by agreement in writing signed by the Lender and Obligors.

Section 8.14 Indemnification. Each of the Obligors hereby agree to hold the Lender and its officers, directors, employees and agents harmless from and against all claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including attorney fees and disbursements of counsel, which may be incurred by or asserted against any of them in connection with or arising out of any investigation, litigation, or proceeding relating to the Loan, except that the Obligors shall not be required to indemnify the Lender to the extent that such claims, damages, liabilities or expenses arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender.

Section 8.15 Attorneys’ Fees and other Costs of Collection. Obligors shall pay all of Lender’s reasonable expenses incurred in enforcing this Agreement and in preserving and liquidating collateral encumbered by the Loan Documents, including but not limited to, reasonable arbitration, paralegals’, attorneys’ and experts’ fees and expenses, whether incurred with or without the commencement of a suit, trial, arbitration, or administrative proceeding, or in any appellate or bankruptcy proceeding

Section 8.16 Waiver of Jury Trial. BORROWERS AND LENDER KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND INTENTIONALLY WAIVE THE RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION BASED HEREON OR ARISING OUT OF, UNDER, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONJUNCTION HEREWITH, OR ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALING, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS OR EITHER PARTY. THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO THE LENDER ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND MAKING ANY LOAN, ADVANCE OR OTHER EXTENSION OF CREDIT TO THE BORROWERS.
