Section 2. Guaranty.

2.1 Guaranty of Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees (as a guaranty of payment and not merely a guaranty of collection) the prompt payment in full of all of the Obligations as and when the respective parts thereof become due and payable. If the Obligations, or any part thereof, shall not be paid in full when due and payable, Lender, in each case, shall have the right to proceed directly against any Guarantor under this Agreement to collect the payment in full of the Obligations, regardless of whether or not Lender shall have theretofore proceeded or shall then be proceeding against Borrower or any other Obligor or Guaranty Collateral, if any, or any of the foregoing, it being understood that Lender, in its sole discretion, may proceed against any Obligor and any Guaranty Collateral and may exercise each right, power or privilege that Lender may then have, either simultaneously or separately, and, in any event, at such time or times and as often and in such order as Lender, in its sole discretion, may from time to time deem expedient to collect the payment in full of the Obligations. Each Guarantor agrees that all payments made by such Guarantor under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any taxes.

2.2 Payments Conditional. Whenever Lender shall credit any payment to the Obligations or any part thereof, whatever the source or form of payment, the credit shall be conditional as to Guarantors unless and until the payment shall be final and valid as to all the world. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor agrees that, if any check or other instrument so applied shall be dishonored by the drawer or any party thereto, or if any proceeds of Guaranty Collateral or payment so applied shall thereafter be recovered by any trustee in bankruptcy or any other Person, Lender, in each case, may reverse any entry relating thereto on its books and such Guarantor shall remain liable therefor, even if Lender may no longer have in its possession any instrument evidencing the Obligations to which the payment in question was applied.

2.3 Guarantors’ Obligations Absolute and Unconditional. Regardless of the duration of time, regardless of whether Borrower may from time to time cease to be indebted to Lender and irrespective of any act, omission or course of dealing whatsoever on the part of Lender, each Guarantor liabilities and other obligations under this Agreement shall remain in full effect until the payment in full of the Obligations.

2.4 Lender Has No Duty to Make Financial Accommodations. Lender shall not at any time be under any duty to any Guarantor to grant any financial accommodation to Borrower, irrespective of any duty or commitment, if any, of Lender to Borrower, or to follow or direct the application of the proceeds of any such financial accommodation.

2.5 Guarantors’ Waiver of Notice, Presentment. Each Guarantor waives (a) notice of the granting of any loan to Borrower or the incurring of any other indebtedness by Borrower or the terms and conditions thereof, (b) presentment, demand for payment and notice of dishonor of the Obligations or any part thereof, or any other indebtedness incurred by Borrower to Lender, (c) notice of any indulgence granted to any Obligor, and (d) any other notice to which such Guarantor might, but for this waiver, be entitled.

2.6 Lender’s Rights Not Prejudiced by Action or Omission. Lender, in its sole discretion, may, without any prejudice to its rights under this Agreement, at any time or times, without notice to or the consent of any Guarantor, (a) grant Borrower whatever financial accommodations that Lender may from time to time deem advisable, even if Borrower might be in default in any respect and even if those financial accommodations might not constitute indebtedness the payment of which is guaranteed hereunder, (b) assent to any renewal, extension, consolidation or refinancing of the Obligations or any part thereof, (c) forbear from demanding security, if Lender shall have the right to do so, (d) release any Obligor or Collateral or assent to any exchange of Guaranty Collateral, if any, irrespective of the consideration, if any, received therefor, (e) grant any waiver or consent or forbear from exercising any right, power or privilege that Lender may have or acquire, (f) assent to any amendment, deletion, addition, supplement or other modification in, to or of any writing evidencing or securing any of the Obligations or pursuant to which any of the Obligations are created, (g) grant any other indulgence to any Obligor, (h) accept any Guaranty Collateral for, or any other Obligor upon, the Obligations or any part thereof, and (i) fail, neglect or omit in any way to realize upon any Guaranty Collateral, to perfect any security interest with respect to Guaranty Collateral, or to protect the Obligations or any part thereof or any Guaranty Collateral therefor.

2.7 Liabilities Survive Guarantors’ Dissolution. Each Guarantor’s liabilities and other obligations under this Agreement shall survive any dissolution of any Guarantor.

2.8 Liabilities Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor’s liabilities and other obligations under this Agreement shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of any lack of validity or enforceability of the Note, any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document evidencing the Loan or related thereto, the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that any Guarantor may have against Borrower or any other Person, or any other defense available to any Guarantor in respect of this Agreement (other than the payment in full of the Obligations).

2.9 Guarantors’ Obligations Independent. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are as set forth in this Agreement and are independent of the obligation of any other Obligor, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against any other Obligor and whether or not any other Obligor is joined in any such action.

2.10 Waiver of Guarantors’ Rights Against Borrower and Guaranty Collateral. To the extent permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby waives any claim or other right that Guarantor might now have or hereafter acquire against Borrower or any other Obligor that arises from the existence or performance of such Guarantor’s liabilities or other obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Lender against Borrower or any Guaranty Collateral that Lender now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, until such time as the Obligations (other than contingent indemnity obligations) have been repaid in full.

2.11 Full Recourse Obligations; Effect of Fraudulent Transfer Laws. It is the desire and intent of each Guarantor and Lender that this Agreement shall be enforced as a full recourse obligation of Guarantor to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies applied in each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought. If and to the extent that the obligations of any Guarantor under this Agreement would, in the absence of this sentence, be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers, then the amount of such Guarantor’s liability hereunder in respect of the Obligations shall be deemed to be reduced ab initio to that maximum amount that would be permitted without causing such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder to be so invalidated.

2.12 Stay of Acceleration. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Obligations is stayed, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, the Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by Guarantors immediately upon demand by Lender.

Section 3. Pledge and Delivery of Collateral.

3.1 The Pledge and Collateral. As collateral security for the prompt payment and performance in full when due (whether at stated maturity by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations, each Pledgor hereby grants to Lender a senior Lien on and a first-priority security interest in all of the Collateral, including (without limitation) all of such Pledgor’s future Collateral, irrespective of any lack of knowledge by Lender of the creation or acquisition thereof.

3.2 Delivery of the Collateral. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Lender shall have the right, at any time in its discretion and without notice to Pledgors, to transfer to or to register in the name of Lender or its nominee any or all of the Collateral, to be held by Lender or such nominee as security for the Obligations until (i) sold in accordance with this Agreement and applicable law or (ii) the Obligations have otherwise been satisfied.

3.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of Pledgors under this Agreement shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of any Pledgor in respect of the Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Each Pledgor shall promptly provide Lender with written notice of correspondence from any governmental, regulatory or taxing authorities that such Pledgor is in material violation of any law, rule or regulation with respect to the Collateral or such Pledgor and which would reasonably be expected to impact such Pledgor’s compliance with its obligations hereunder.

Each Pledgor covenants that until such time as the Obligations are fully satisfied, (i) such Pledgor shall, at its own expense, take any and all actions necessary or desirable to preserve, protect and defend the security interest of the Lender in the Collateral and the perfection and priority thereof against any and all adverse claims, including appearing in and defending all actions and proceedings which purport to affect any of the foregoing; (ii) such Pledgor shall pay or cause to be paid all taxes and other levies with respect to the Collateral when the same become due and payable except to the extent contested in good faith with appropriate reserves therefor on such Pledgor’s books and records; (iii) and such Pledgor shall not directly or indirectly, whether voluntarily, involuntarily, by operation of law or otherwise create or permit to exist any lien or other encumbrance on or with respect to any of the Collateral, except for liens for taxes not yet due and payable.

Each Pledgor acknowledges that each of the waivers set forth herein is made after consultation with legal counsel and with full knowledge of its significance and consequences.
