2.4. Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection and Guarantor hereby waives the right to require that any action be brought first against Borrower or any other guarantor, or to require that resort be made to any Collateral, or to require that resort be made to any security or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of Lender in favor of Borrower or of Guarantor.

2.5. Continuation of Guaranty.

If any demand is made at any time upon Lender for the repayment or recovery of any amount received by it in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and if Lender repays all or any part of such amount by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body or by reason of any settlement or compromise of any such demand, Guarantor will be and remain liable hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never been received originally by Lender.

2.6. Subordination of Debt. Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter owed to Guarantor to the Obligations and agrees with Lender that, from and after the date whereon Lender notifies Guarantor that an Event of Default under one or more of the Loan Documents has occurred and is continuing, Guarantor shall not demand or accept any payment from Borrower of any such indebtedness, shall not claim any offset or other reduction of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder because of any such indebtedness and shall not take any action to obtain any interest in any of the Collateral described in and encumbered by the Loan Documents; provided, however, that, if Lender so requests, such indebtedness shall be collected, enforced and received by Guarantor as trustee for Lender and paid over to Lender on account of the Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty except to the extent the Obligations shall have been reduced by such payment.

2.7. Financial Statements. Guarantor agrees to deliver to Lender, annual and quarterly financial statements in the form, and as and when, required to be delivered by Borrower pursuant to Section 6.5 of the Loan Agreement.

2.8. Transfer of Interest. Guarantor agrees not to make or permit to be made, by voluntary or involuntary means, any transfer of the direct or indirect equity interest of Guarantor in Borrower, which would result in the occurrence of an Event of Default under the Loan Agreement.

2.9. Conveyance of Assets. Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that, so long as any of the Obligations shall remain unpaid, Guarantor will not, without Lender’s prior written consent, convey, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or a substantial part of its now owned or hereafter acquired assets (whether real or personal), which after giving effect thereto shall (a) render the Guarantor insolvent (within the meaning of the United States Bankruptcy Code), or (b) have a material adverse effect on the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty or the collectibility of Guarantor’s liability to Lender under this Guaranty.

3 EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

3.1. Events of Default. An “Event of Default” shall exist if any of the following events occurs:

(A) Guarantor fails to perform or observe any covenant contained herein;

(C) Guarantor purports to terminate this Guaranty;

(E) Guarantor makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or admits in writing its inability to pay debts generally as they become due, or consents to the appointment of a receiver, trustee or liquidator of all or any part of its property; or

(F) The occurrence of an Event of Default under any of the Loan Documents.

3.2. Remedies on Default. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, (a) Guarantor shall pay to Lender the amount of the Obligations; (b) Lender may, without notice to or demand upon Guarantor apply Guarantor’s funds on deposit with Lender, including such of the Collateral as has been pledged by Guarantor, to repay the Obligations; or (c) Lender, in its sole discretion, may exercise from time to time any other rights and remedies available to it at law, in equity or otherwise. No modification, limitation or discharge of the Obligations arising out of or by virtue of any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or state law will affect, modify, limit or discharge Guarantor’s liability in any manner whatsoever and this Guaranty will remain and continue in full force and effect and will be enforceable against Guarantor to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if any such proceeding had not been instituted. Guarantor waives all rights and benefits which might accrue to Guarantor by reason of any such proceeding and will be liable to the full extent hereunder, irrespective of any modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of Borrower that may result from any such proceeding.

3.3. Waiver and Notice.

(A) No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Lender is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Guaranty now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or by statute.

(B) No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon the occurrence of any Event of Default shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof, but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.

(C) In order to entitle Lender to exercise any remedy reserved to them in this Guaranty, it shall not be necessary to give any notice, other than such notice as may be expressly required in this Guaranty.

4 RIGHT OF SETOFF; INDEMNITY

4.1. Right of Setoff. In addition to all liens upon and rights of setoff against Guarantor’s money, securities or other property given to Lender by law, Lender shall have, with respect to Guarantor’s obligations to Lender under this Guaranty and to the extent permitted by law, a contractual possessory security interest in and a contractual right of setoff against, and Guarantor hereby grants Lender a security interest in, and hereby assigns, conveys, delivers, pledges and transfers to Lender all of Guarantor’s right, title and interest in and to, all of Guarantor’s deposits, moneys, securities and other property now or hereafter in the possession of or on deposit with, or in transit to, Lender. Every such security interest and right of setoff may be exercised without demand upon or notice to Guarantor upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. Every such right of setoff shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default without any action of Lender, although Lender may enter such setoff on its books and records at a later time.

4.2 Indemnity. Guarantor agrees to indemnify Lender, each legal entity, if any, which controls Lender and each of their respective directors, officers and employees (the “Indemnified Parties”), and to hold each Indemnified Party harmless from and against, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including all fees and charges of internal or external counsel with whom any Indemnified Party may consult and all expenses of litigation and preparation therefor) which any Indemnified Party may incur or which may be asserted against any Indemnified Party by any person, entity or governmental authority (including any person or entity claiming derivatively on behalf of Guarantor), in connection with or arising out of or relating to the matters referred to in this Guaranty, whether (a) arising from or incurred in connection with any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant by Guarantor, or (b) arising out of or resulting from any suit, action, claim, proceeding or governmental investigation, pending or threatened, whether based on statute, regulation or order, or tort, or contract or otherwise, before any court or governmental authority; provided, however, that the foregoing indemnity agreement shall not apply to any claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses solely attributable to an Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The indemnity agreement contained in this Section shall survive the termination of this Guaranty and assignment of any rights hereunder. Guarantor may participate at its expense in the defense of any such claim.
