GUARANTY

 

GUARANTY

The undersigned, for value received, unconditionally and absolutely guarantee(s) to Comerica Bank (“Bank”), and to the Bank’s successors and assigns, payment when due, whether by stated maturity, demand, acceleration or otherwise, of all existing and future Indebtedness (as hereinafter defined) to the Bank of Adept Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation, or any successor in interest, including, without limit, any debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy which succeeds to the interest of this party or person (jointly and severally the “Borrower”).  “Indebtedness” shall mean any and all indebtedness, obligations or liabilities of the Borrower to the Bank, howsoever arising, evidenced or incurred, whether absolute or contingent, direct or indirect, voluntary or involuntary, liquidated or unliquidated, joint or several, and whether or not known to the undersigned at the time of this Guaranty or at the time any future indebtedness is incurred, and whether originally payable to the Bank or to a third party and subsequently acquired by the Bank, including, without limitation, (a) any and all direct indebtedness of the Borrower to the Bank, including indebtedness evidenced by any and all promissory notes; (b) any and all obligations or liabilities of the Borrower to the Bank arising under any guaranty where the Borrower has guaranteed the payment of indebtedness owing to the Bank from a third party; (c) any and all obligations or liabilities of the Borrower to the Bank arising from applications or agreements for the issuance of letters of credit; (d) late charges, loan fees or charges and overdraft indebtedness; (e) any agreement to indemnify the Bank for environmental liability or to clean up hazardous waste; (f) any and all indebtedness, obligations or liabilities for which the Borrower would otherwise be liable to the Bank were it not for the invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of them by reason of any bankruptcy, insolvency or other law or order of any kind, or for any other reason, including, without limit, liability for interest and attorneys’ fees on, or in connection with, any of the Indebtedness from and after the filing by or against the Borrower of a bankruptcy petition, whether an involuntary or voluntary bankruptcy case, including, without limitation, all attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with motions for relief from stay, cash collateral motions, nondischargeability motions, preference liability motions, fraudulent conveyance liability motions, fraudulent transfer liability motions and all other motions brought by Borrower, the undersigned, Bank or third parties in any way relating to Bank’s rights with respect to such Borrower, the undersigned, or third party and/or affecting any collateral securing any obligation owed to Bank by Borrower, the undersigned, or any third party, probate proceedings, on appeal or otherwise; (g) any and all amendments, modifications, renewals and/or extensions of any of the above, including, without limit, amendments, modifications, renewals and/or extensions which are evidenced by new or additional instruments, documents or agreements; and (h) all costs of collecting Indebtedness, including, without limit, attorneys’ fees and costs. Any reference in this Guaranty to attorneys’ fees shall be deemed a reference to reasonable fees, charges, costs and expenses of counsel and paralegals, whether inside or outside counsel is used, and whether or not a suit or action is instituted, and to court costs if a suit or action is instituted, and whether attorneys’ fees or court costs are incurred at the trial court level, on appeal, in a bankruptcy, administrative or probate proceeding or otherwise.  All costs and expenses shall be payable immediately by the undersigned when incurred by the Bank, without demand, and until paid shall bear interest at the highest per annum rate applicable to any of the Indebtedness, but not in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guaranty, the term “Indebtedness” shall not include any Excluded Swap Obligation (as hereinafter defined).  “Excluded Swap Obligation” shall mean any obligation of Borrower to Bank with respect to a “swap,” as defined in Section 1a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”), if and to the extent that the undersigned’s guaranteeing of such swap obligation, or the undersigned’s granting of a security interest or lien to secure such swap obligation, is or becomes illegal under the CEA, or any rule, regulation or order of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (or the application or official interpretation of any thereof), by virtue of the undersigned’s failure for any reason to constitute an “eligible contract participant,” as defined in Section 1a(18) of the CEA and the regulations thereunder, at the time such guarantee or such security interest grant becomes effective with respect to such swap obligation.  If any such swap obligation arises under a master agreement governing more than one swap, the foregoing exclusion shall apply only to those swap obligations that are attributable to swaps in respect of which the undersigned’s guaranteeing of, or the undersigned’s granting of a security interest or lien to secure, such swaps is or becomes illegal.

 

1.

LIMITATION:  The total obligation of the undersigned under this Guaranty is UNLIMITED unless specifically limited in the Additional Provisions of this Guaranty, and this obligation (whether unlimited or limited to the extent specified in the Additional Provisions) shall include, IN ADDITION TO any limited amount of principal guaranteed, all interest on all Indebtedness, and all costs and expenses of any kind incurred by the Bank in collection efforts against the Borrower and/or the undersigned or otherwise incurred by the Bank in any way relating to the Indebtedness or this Guaranty, including without limit attorneys’ fees.  Although the intent of the undersigned and the Bank is that California law shall apply to this Guaranty, regardless of whether California law applies, the undersigned further agree(s) as follows: With respect to the limitation, if any, stated in the Additional Provisions below on the amount of principal guaranteed under this Guaranty, the undersigned agree(s) that (a) this limitation shall not be a limitation on the amount of Borrower’s Indebtedness to the Bank; (b) any payments by the undersigned shall not reduce the maximum liability of the undersigned under this Guaranty unless written notice to that effect is actually received by the Bank at, or prior to, the time of the payment; and (c) the liability of the undersigned to the Bank shall at all times be deemed to be the aggregate liability of the undersigned under this Guaranty and any other guaranties previously or subsequently given to the Bank by the undersigned and not expressly revoked, modified or invalidated in writing. Any reference in the Additional Provisions or elsewhere (a) to this Guaranty being secured by certain collateral shall NOT be deemed to limit the total obligation of the undersigned under this Guaranty or (b) to this Guaranty being limited in any respect shall NOT be deemed to limit the total obligation of the undersigned under any prior or subsequent guaranty given by the undersigned to the Bank.

 

2.

NATURE OF GUARANTY:  This is a continuing Guaranty of payment and not of collection and remains effective whether the Indebtedness is from time to time reduced and later increased or entirely extinguished and later reincurred.  This Guaranty shall remain effective with respect to successive transactions which shall either continue the Indebtedness, increase or decrease it, or from time to time create new Indebtedness after all or any prior Indebtedness has been satisfied, until this Guaranty is terminated in the manner and to the extent provided herein.

 

The undersigned acknowledge(s) and agree(s) that the liabilities created by this Guaranty are direct and are not conditioned upon pursuit by the Bank of any remedy the Bank may have against the Borrower or any person or any security.  No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of any part or all of the Indebtedness or any documents evidencing the same, by reason of any bankruptcy, insolvency or other law or order of any kind or for any reason, and no defense or setoff available at any time to the Borrower, shall impair, affect or be a defense or setoff to the obligations of the undersigned under this Guaranty.

 

The undersigned deliver(s) this Guaranty based solely on the undersigned’s independent investigation of (or decision not to investigate) the financial condition of Borrower and is (are) not relying on any information furnished by the Bank. The undersigned assume(s) full responsibility for obtaining any further information concerning the Borrower’s financial condition, the status of the Indebtedness or any other matter which the undersigned may deem necessary or appropriate now or later.  The undersigned waive(s) any duty on the part of the Bank, and agree(s) that it is not relying upon nor expecting the Bank to disclose to the undersigned any fact now or later known by the Bank, whether relating to the operations or condition of the Borrower, the existence, liabilities or financial condition of any co-guarantor of the Indebtedness, the occurrence of any default with respect to the Indebtedness, or otherwise, notwithstanding any effect these facts may have upon the undersigned’s risk under this Guaranty or the undersigned’s rights against the Borrower. The undersigned knowingly accept(s) the full range of risk encompassed in this Guaranty, which risk includes, without limit, the possibility that Borrower may incur Indebtedness to the Bank after the financial condition of the Borrower, or the Borrower’s ability to pay debts as they mature, has deteriorated. The undersigned represent(s) and warrant(s) that: (a) the Bank has made no representation to the undersigned as to the creditworthiness of the Borrower; and (b) the undersigned has (have) established adequate means of obtaining from the Borrower on a continuing basis financial and other information pertaining to the Borrower’s financial condition. The undersigned agree(s) to keep adequately informed of any facts, events or circumstances which might in any way affect the risks of the undersigned under this Guaranty.

 

3.

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS:  The undersigned authorize(s) the Bank, either before or after termination of this Guaranty, without notice to or demand on the undersigned and without affecting the undersigned’s liability under this Guaranty, from time to time to: (a) apply any security and direct the order or manner of sale of it  , including, without limit, a nonjudicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling security agreement, mortgage or deed of trust, as the Bank in its discretion may determine; (b) release or substitute any one or more of the endorsers or any other guarantors of the Indebtedness; and (c) apply payments received by the Bank from the Borrower to any indebtedness of the Borrower to the Bank, in such order as the Bank shall determine in its sole discretion, whether or not this indebtedness is covered by this Guaranty, and the undersigned waive(s) any provision of law regarding application of payments which specifies otherwise.  The undersigned agree(s) to provide to the Bank copies of the undersigned’s financial statements upon request.

 

4.

SECURITY/SUBORDINATION:  The undersigned pledge(s), assign(s) and grant(s) to the Bank a security interest in and lien upon and the right of setoff as to any and all property of the undersigned now or later in the possession of the Bank. The undersigned further assign(s) to the Bank as collateral for the obligations of the undersigned under this Guaranty all claims of any nature that the undersigned now or later has (have) against the Borrower (other than any claim under a deed of trust or mortgage covering real property) with full right on the part of the Bank, in its own name or in the name of the undersigned, to collect and enforce these claims.  The undersigned subordinate(s) any claim of any nature that the undersigned now or later has (have) against the Borrower to and in favor of all Indebtedness and agree(s) not to accept payment or satisfaction of any claim that the undersigned now or later may have against the Borrower without the prior written consent of the Bank. Should any payment, distribution, security, or proceeds, be received by the undersigned upon or with respect to any claim that the undersigned  now or may later have against the Borrower, the undersigned shall immediately deliver the same to the Bank in the form received (except for endorsement or assignment by the undersigned where required by the Bank) for application on the Indebtedness, whether matured or unmatured, and until delivered the same shall be held in trust by the undersigned as the property of the Bank. The undersigned agree(s) that no security now or later held by the Bank for the payment of any Indebtedness, whether from the Borrower, any guarantor, or otherwise, and whether in the nature of a security interest, pledge, lien, assignment, setoff, suretyship, guaranty, indemnity, insurance or otherwise, shall affect in any manner the unconditional obligation of the undersigned under this Guaranty, and the Bank, in its sole discretion, without notice to the undersigned, may release, exchange, enforce and otherwise deal with any security without affecting in any manner the unconditional obligation of the undersigned under this Guaranty.  The undersigned acknowledge(s) and agree(s) that the Bank has no obligation to acquire or perfect any lien on or security interest in any asset(s), whether real or personal, to secure payment of the Indebtedness, and the undersigned is (are) not relying upon any asset(s) in which the Bank has or may have a lien or security interest for payment of the Indebtedness.

 

5.

OTHER GUARANTORS:  If any Indebtedness is guaranteed by two or more guarantors, the obligation of the undersigned shall be several and also joint, each with all and also each with any one or more of the others, and may be enforced at the option of the Bank against each severally, any two or more jointly, or some severally and some jointly.  The Bank, in its sole discretion, may release any one or more of the guarantors for any consideration which it deems adequate, and may fail or elect not to prove a claim against the estate of any bankrupt, insolvent, incompetent or deceased guarantor; and after that, without notice to any guarantor, the Bank may extend or renew any or all Indebtedness and may permit the Borrower to incur additional Indebtedness, without affecting in any manner the unconditional obligation of the remaining guarantor(s).  The undersigned acknowledge(s) that the effectiveness of this Guaranty is not conditioned on any or all of the indebtedness being guaranteed by anyone else. This action by the Bank shall not, however, be deemed to affect any right to contribution which may exist among the guarantors.

 

6.

TERMINATION:  Any of the undersigned may terminate their obligation under this Guaranty as to future Indebtedness (except as provided below) by (and only by) delivering written notice of termination to an officer of the Bank and receiving from an officer of the Bank written acknowledgment of delivery; provided, however, the termination shall not be effective until the opening of business on the fifth (5th) day (“effective date”) following written acknowledgment of delivery.  Any termination shall not affect in any way the unconditional obligations of the remaining guarantor(s), whether or not the termination is known to the remaining guarantor(s).  Any termination shall not affect in any way the unconditional obligations of the terminating guarantor(s) as to any Indebtedness existing at the effective date of termination or any Indebtedness created after that pursuant to any commitment or agreement of the Bank or pursuant to any Borrower loan with the Bank existing at the effective date of termination (whether advances or readvances by the Bank after the effective date of termination are optional or obligatory), or any modifications, extensions or renewals of any of this Indebtedness, whether in whole or in part, and as to all of this Indebtedness and modifications, extensions or renewals of it, this Guaranty shall continue effective until the same shall have been fully paid.  The Bank has no duty to give notice of termination by any guarantor(s) to any remaining guarantor(s).  The undersigned shall indemnify the Bank against all claims, damages, costs and expenses, including, without limit, attorney fees, incurred by the Bank in connection with any suit, claim or action against the Bank arising out of any modification or termination of a Borrower loan or any refusal by the Bank to extend additional credit in connection with the termination of this Guaranty.

 

7.

REINSTATEMENT:  Notwithstanding any prior revocation, termination, surrender or discharge of this Guaranty (or of any lien, pledge or security interest securing this Guaranty) in whole or in part, the effectiveness of this Guaranty, and of all liens, pledges and security interests securing this Guaranty, shall automatically continue or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that (a)  any payment received or credit given by the Bank in respect of the Indebtedness is returned, disgorged or rescinded as a preference, impermissible setoff, fraudulent conveyance, diversion of trust funds or otherwise under any applicable state or federal law, including, without limitation, laws pertaining to bankruptcy or insolvency, in which case this Guaranty, and all liens, pledges and security interests securing this Guaranty, shall be enforceable against the undersigned as if the returned, disgorged or rescinded payment or credit had not been received or given by the Bank, and whether or not the Bank relied upon this payment or credit or changed its position as a consequence of it; or (b) any liabilities imposed, or sought to be imposed, against the Bank relating to the environmental condition of, or the presence of hazardous or toxic substances on, in or about, any property given as collateral to the Bank by the Borrower, whether this condition is known or unknown, now exists or subsequently arises (excluding only conditions which arise after any acquisition by the Bank of any such property, by foreclosure, in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, to the extent due to the wrongful act or omission of the Bank), in which case, this Guaranty, and all liens, pledges and security interests securing this Guaranty, shall be enforced against the undersigned to the extent of all liability, cost and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred by the Bank as the direct or indirect result of any environmental condition or hazardous or toxic substances.  In the event of continuation or reinstatement of this Guaranty and the liens, pledges and security interests securing it, the undersigned agree(s) upon demand by the Bank, to execute and deliver to the Bank those documents which the Bank determines are appropriate to further evidence (in the public records or otherwise) this continuation or reinstatement, although the failure of the undersigned to do so shall not affect in any way the reinstatement or continuation.  If the undersigned do(es) not execute and deliver to the Bank upon demand such documents, the Bank and each Bank officer is irrevocably appointed (which appointment is coupled with an interest) the true and lawful attorney of the undersigned (with full power of substitution) to execute and deliver such documents in the name and on behalf of the undersigned.

 

For purposes of this Guaranty, “Environmental Condition” includes, without limitation, conditions existing with respect to the surface or ground water, drinking water supply, land surface or subsurface and the air; and “hazardous or toxic substances” shall include any and all substances now or subsequently determined by any federal, state or local authority to be hazardous or toxic, or otherwise regulated by any of these authorities.

 

8.

WAIVERS: The undersigned waive(s) any right to require the Bank to: (a) proceed against any person, including, without limit, the Borrower; (b) proceed against or exhaust any security held from the Borrower or any other person; (c) pursue any other remedy in the Bank’s power; (d) make any presentments or demands for performance, or give any notice of nonperformance, protest, notice of protest, notice of default, demand, notice of intent to accelerate or demand payment of any Indebtedness, dishonor or notice of dishonor, in connection with all or any part of the Indebtedness or any obligations or evidences of Indebtedness held by the Bank as security, in connection with any other obligations or evidences of indebtedness which constitute in whole or in part Indebtedness, or in connection with the creation of new or additional Indebtedness; (e) give any notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and presentment; or (f) give any and all other notices to which the undersigned might otherwise be entitled.  The undersigned further (i) waives diligence in collecting any Indebtedness by the Bank and (ii) agree(s) that the Bank may, once or any number of times, modify the terms of any Indebtedness, compromise, extend, increase, accelerate, renew or forbear to enforce payment of any or all Indebtedness, or permit the Borrower to incur additional Indebtedness, all without notice to the undersigned and without affecting in any manner the unconditional obligation of the undersigned under this Guaranty.

 

The undersigned waive(s) any defense based upon or arising by reason of (a) any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other person; (b) the cessation or limitation from any cause whatsoever, other than final and irrevocable payment in full, of the Indebtedness; (c) any lack of authority of any officer, director, partner, agent or any other person acting or purporting to act on behalf of the Borrower which is a corporation, partnership or other type of entity, or any defect in the formation of the Borrower; (d) the application by the Borrower of the proceeds of any Indebtedness for purposes other than the purposes represented by the Borrower to the Bank or intended or understood by the Bank or the undersigned; (e) any act or omission by the Bank which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of the Borrower or any Indebtedness by operation of law or otherwise; or (f) any modification of the Indebtedness, in any form whatsoever including without limit any modification made after effective termination, and including without limit, the renewal, extension, acceleration or other change in time for payment of the Indebtedness, or other change in the terms of any Indebtedness, including without limit increase or decrease of the interest rate.  The undersigned understands that, absent this waiver, Bank’s election of remedies, including but not limited to its decision to proceed to nonjudicial foreclosure on any real property securing the Indebtedness, could preclude Bank from obtaining a deficiency judgment against Borrower and the undersigned pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 and could also destroy any subrogation rights which the undersigned has against Borrower.  The undersigned further understands that, absent this waiver, California law, including without limitation, California Code of Civil Procedure sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726, could afford the undersigned one or more affirmative defenses to any action maintained by Bank against the undersigned on this Guaranty.

 

The undersigned waives any and all rights and provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, including, but not limited to any provision thereof that: (i) may limit the time period for Bank to commence a lawsuit against Borrower or the undersigned to collect any Indebtedness owing by Borrower or the undersigned to Bank; (ii) may entitle Borrower or the undersigned to a judicial or nonjudicial determination of any deficiency owed by Borrower or the undersigned to Bank, or to otherwise limit Bank’s right to collect a deficiency based on the fair market value of such real property security; (iii) may limit Bank’s right to collect a deficiency judgment after a sale of any real property securing the Indebtedness; (iv) may require Bank to take only one action to collect the Indebtedness or that may otherwise limit the remedies available to Bank to collect the Indebtedness.

 

The undersigned waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Bank even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed the  undersigned’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against Borrower by the operation of Section 580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.

 

The undersigned unconditionally and irrevocably waive(s) each and every defense and setoff of any nature which, under principles of guaranty or otherwise, would operate to impair or diminish in any way the obligation of the undersigned under this Guaranty, and acknowledge(s) that each such waiver is by this reference incorporated into each security agreement, collateral assignment, pledge and/or other document from the undersigned now or later securing this Guaranty and/or the Indebtedness, and acknowledge(s) that as of the date of this Guaranty no such defense or setoff exists. The undersigned acknowledge(s) that the effectiveness of this Guaranty is subject to no conditions of any kind.

 

Without limiting the generality of any other waiver or other provision set forth in this Guaranty, each of the undersigned waives all rights and defenses that any such undersigned may have because the Indebtedness is secured by real property.  This means, among other things:

 

(1)

Bank may collect from any of the undersigned without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by any Borrower to secure the Indebtedness.

 

(2)

If Bank forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by any Borrower to secure the Indebtedness:

 

(a)

the amount of the Indebtedness may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price.

 

(b)

Bank may collect from any of the undersigned even if Bank, by foreclosing on the real property pledged as collateral, has destroyed any right that the undersigned may have to collect from Borrower.

 

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses each of the Guarantor may have because the Indebtedness is secured by real property.  These rights and defenses include, but are not   limited to, any rights or defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil Procedure.

 

WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF ANY OTHER WAIVER OR OTHER PROVISION SET FORTH IN THIS GUARANTY, EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT SUCH WAIVER IS PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY AND ALL BENEFITS, DEFENSES TO PAYMENT OR PERFORMANCE, OR ANY RIGHT TO PARTIAL OR COMPLETE EXONERATION ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY UNDER ANY ONE OR MORE OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTIONS 2799, 2808, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2820, 2821, 2822, 2838, 2839, 2845, 2847, 2848, 2849, AND 2850.

 

The undersigned acknowledge(s) and agree(s) that this is a knowing and informed waiver of the undersigned’s rights as discussed above and that Bank is relying on this waiver in extending credit to Borrower.

 

The undersigned warrant(s) and agree(s) that each of the waivers set forth above are made with the undersigned’s full knowledge of their significance and consequences, and that under the circumstances, the waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law If any of these waivers are determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, these waivers shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law.

 

9.

WAIVER OF SUBROGATION: Until the Indebtedness is irrevocably paid and discharged in full, the undersigned waive(s) any and all rights to be subrogated to the position of the Bank or to have the benefit of any lien, security interest or other guaranty now or later held by the Bank for the Indebtedness or to enforce any remedy which the Bank now or later has against the Borrower or any other person.  Until the Indebtedness is irrevocably paid and discharged in full, the undersigned shall have no right of reimbursement, indemnity, contribution or other right of recourse to or with respect to the Borrower or any other person.  The undersigned agree(s) to indemnify and hold harmless the Bank from and against any and all claims, actions, damages, costs and expenses, including without limit reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the Bank in connection with the undersigned’s exercise of any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnification or recourse with respect to this Guaranty. The Bank has no duty to enforce or protect any rights which the undersigned may have against the Borrower or any other person and the undersigned assume(s) full responsibility for enforcing and protecting these rights.

 

Notwithstanding any provision of the preceding paragraph or anything else in this Guaranty to the contrary, if any of the undersigned is or becomes an “insider” or “affiliate” (as defined in Section 101 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, as it may be amended) with respect to the Borrower, then that undersigned irrevocably and absolutely waives any and all rights of subrogation, contribution, indemnification, recourse, reimbursement and any similar rights against the Borrower (or any other guarantor) with respect to this Guaranty, whether such rights arise under an express or implied contract or by operation of law. It is the intention of the parties that the undersigned shall not be (or be deemed to be) a “creditor” (as defined in Section 101 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, as it may be amended) of the Borrower (or any other guarantor) by reason of the existence of this Guaranty in the event that the Borrower becomes a debtor in any proceeding under the Federal Bankruptcy Code. This waiver is given to induce the Bank to enter into certain written contracts with the Borrower included in the Indebtedness. The undersigned warrant(s) and agree(s) that none of Bank’s rights, remedies or interests shall be directly or indirectly impaired because of any of the undersigned’s status as an “insider” or “affiliate” of the Borrower, and undersigned shall take any action, and shall execute any document, which the Bank may request in order to effectuate this warranty to the Bank.

 

10.

SALE/ASSIGNMENT:  The undersigned acknowledge(s) that the Bank has the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate, or grant participations in all or any part of the Indebtedness and any related obligations, including, without limit, this Guaranty.  In connection with that right, the Bank may disclose any documents and information which the Bank now has or later acquires relating to the undersigned, this Guaranty or the Borrower in connection with such sale, assignment, transfer, negotiation, or grant, whether furnished by the Borrower, the undersigned or otherwise. The undersigned further agree(s) that the Bank may disclose these documents and information to the Borrower. The undersigned agree(s) that the Bank may provide information relating to this Guaranty or relating to the undersigned to the Bank’s parent, affiliates, subsidiaries and service providers.

 

11.

GENERAL:  This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement of the undersigned and the Bank with respect to the subject matter of this Guaranty.  No waiver, consent, modification or change of the terms of the Guaranty shall bind any of the undersigned or the Bank unless in writing and signed by the waiving party or an authorized officer of the waiving party, and then this waiver, consent, modification or change shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose given.  This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of the Bank and its successors and assigns and shall be binding on the undersigned and the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns including, without limit, any debtor in possession or trustee in bankruptcy for any of the undersigned.  The undersigned has (have) knowingly and voluntarily entered into this Guaranty in good faith for the purpose of inducing the Bank to extend credit or make other financial accommodations to the Borrower, and the undersigned acknowledge(s) that the terms of this Guaranty are reasonable.  If any provision of this Guaranty is unenforceable in whole or in part for any reason, the remaining provisions shall continue to be effective.  THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES.

 

12.	HEADINGS:  Headings in this Guaranty are included for the convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Guaranty for any purpose.

 

13.	ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS:  This Guaranty is secured by, inter alia, that certain Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof, made by the undersigned for the benefit of Bank, and all amendments, modifications, or replacements thereto.

 

14.

JURY TRIAL WAIVER:  THE UNDERSIGNED AND BANK, BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS GUARANTY, ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS A CONSTITUTIONAL ONE, BUT THAT IT MAY BE WAIVED UNDER CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.  TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, EACH PARTY, AFTER CONSULTING (OR HAVING HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CONSULT) WITH COUNSEL OF THEIR CHOICE, KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY, AND FOR THEIR MUTUAL BENEFIT WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION REGARDING THE PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT OF, OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO, THIS GUARANTY OR THE INDEBTEDNESS.
