THIS GUARANTY dated as of July 8, 1987, by ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (hereinafter
the "Guarantor") in respect to an indebtedness of FPI Chesterfield, Ltd.

the Westbury Park Multi-Family Housing Facility Note dated as of July 8, 1987
(the "Facility Note") in the principal amount of $23,320,000.
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Guarantor is a resident of the State of Tennessee;
WHEREAS, Borrower is a Missouri limited partnership which wishes to borrow
from Lender $23,320,000 for the purpose of financing the acquisition,
construction and equipping of the Facility to be located on the Land.
WHEREAS, as a condition to lending such sum to Borrower, Lender requires that
the Guarantor execute and deliver this Guaranty.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor
hereby agrees for the benefit of Lender and any future holders of the Facility
Note as follows:
1. All capitalized, undefined terms used herein shall have the same meanings
as in the Loan Agreement of even date herewith between Borrower and Lender.
2. The Guarantor hereby guarantees: (a) that, subject to Section 10.1(b) of
the Loan Agreement, the Facility shall be completed in accordance with the
Plans and Specifications no later than September 1, 1989 , for which purposes
the construction of the Facility shall be deemed to be completed on the
Completion Date; (b) that Borrower shall fully and punctually pay and
discharge any and all proper costs and expenses directly attributable to the
construction and completion of the Facility, including the discharge of all
proper claims and demands for labor, materials, services and
equipment used or obtained for or in connection with the construction and
completion of the Facility; (c) the prompt and complete payment to Lender of
all obligations and liabilities, except as limited in paragraph 11 below,
under and evidenced by the Facility Note (all such obligations and liabilities
being herein called the "Obligations"); and (d) the payment of any and all
expenses which may be paid or incurred by Lender in collecting any or all of
the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights under this Guaranty. Lender shall
give written notice to Guarantor of all defaults under or in respect to the
Obligations within five (5) days after discovery thereof by Lender.
3. If the Borrower shall fail to make any payment under the Facility Note
prior to an event of default thereunder (any such event being called herein a
"Default"), Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time,
after five (5) days prior written notice to the Guarantor, to set off,
appropriate and apply all credits, indebtedness or claims (in each case
whether direct or indirect, or contingent or matured or unmatured) at any time
held or owing by Lender as a result of its holding the Facility Note to or for
the credit of the Guarantor, against and on account of the obligations and
liabilities of such Guarantor hereunder, as Lender may elect, although said
obligations, liabilities of, or claims against such Guarantor shall be
contingent or matured or unmatured.
4. Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Guarantor hereunder or
any set off or application of funds to the Guarantor by Lender, the Guarantor
shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Lender against
the Borrower, or to any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset
held by Lender for the satisfaction of the Obligations, until all amounts
owing to Lender by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of the Facility Note are
paid in full.
5. The Guarantor hereby consents, without the necessity of any reservation of
rights against such Guarantor, that any demand for satisfaction of the
Obligations made by Lender may be rescinded by Lender and any of the
Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other
party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee
therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in
whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated,
compromised, waived, surrendered or released by Lender; and the Facility Note,
the Mortgage and the Loan Agreement or other guarantee or document in
connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in
whole or in part, as Lender may deem advisable from time to time, and any
collateral security or guarantee or right of offset at any time held by Lender
for the satisfaction of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived,
surrendered or released (except a certain Deed of Trust, Assignment of Rents
and Leases and Security Agreement dated July 14, 1987, by
- 2 -
and between the Borrower and a mortgage trustee, named therein, for the
benefit of Lender) all without the necessity of any reservation of rights
against such Guarantor, who will remain bound hereunder, notwithstanding any
such renewal, extension, modification, acceleration, compromise, amendment,
supplement, termination, sale, exchange, waiver, surrender or release. Prior
to making any demand hereunder against the Guarantor, Lender shall give the
Guarantor five (5) days prior written notice of its intention so to do and
Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the
Borrower, and any failure by Lender to make any such demand or to collect any
payments from the Borrower or any release of the Borrower shall not relieve
Guarantor of the obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair
or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law,
of Lender against Guarantor. For purposes hereof, "demand" shall include the
commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
6. Lender shall give the Guarantor five (5) days prior written notice of the
modification, renewal or extension of the Facility Note, the Mortgage or the
Loan Agreement. Notice or proof of reliance by Lender upon this Guaranty or
acceptance of this Guaranty, and the Facility Note, the Mortgage or the Loan
Agreement shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or
incurred in reliance upon this Guaranty, and all dealings between the Borrower
or such Guarantor and Lender shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have
been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty. Except as otherwise
provided herein, the Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, and
demand for payment or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower or such Guarantor
with respect to the Obligations. This Guaranty shall be construed as a
continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to
the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Facility Note, the Mortgage
or the Loan Agreement, any of the Obligations or any collateral security or
guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from
time to time held by Lender and without regard to any defense, setoff or
counterclaim which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the
Borrower against Lender, or by any other circumstance whatsoever (with or
without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or Guarantor) which constitutes,
or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the
Borrower for the Obligations, or of Guarantor under this Guaranty, in
bankruptcy or in any other instance, and the obligations and liabilities of
Guarantor hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by
Lender or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the
Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect
of all or any part of the Obligations or against any collateral security or
guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guaranty
shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to
the extent of its terms upon the Guarantor and his heirs and assigns, and
shall insure to the
- 3 -
benefit of Lender, and its successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns, and
for the benefit of any holder from time to time of the Facility Note, until
all the Obligations and the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty
shall have been satisfied in full.
7. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case
may be, if at any time payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must
otherwise be restored or returned by Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy,
dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower, or upon or as a
result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or
trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any substantial part of its
property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
8. The Guarantor hereby guarantees that the Obligations, if monetary, will be
paid to Lender at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. All such payments
shall be made in lawful currency of the United States of America and in
immediately available funds.
