Notwithstanding anything in this Guaranty Agreement to the contrary, the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render this Guaranty Agreement subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under any Applicable Laws, after giving effect to all other liabilities of Guarantors, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to the value, as assets (as determined under the applicable provisions of such laws), of any rights of Guarantors to contribution, indemnity, and/or subrogation from any Borrower or any other Person.

(b) Each Guarantor has received and will receive a direct and indirect material benefit from the transactions evidenced by and contemplated in the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

This Guaranty Agreement is given by such Guarantor in furtherance of its direct and indirect business interests.

(c) Such Guarantor is currently informed of the financial condition of each Borrower and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Such Guarantor has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Such Guarantor is familiar with, and has had an opportunity to review the books and records regarding, the financial condition of each Borrower and is familiar with the value of any and all property intended to be security for the payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided, that such Guarantor is not relying on such financial condition or the existence or value of any such security as an inducement to enter into this Guaranty Agreement. Such Guarantors has adequate means to obtain, on a continuing basis, information concerning the financial condition of each Borrower. Such Guarantor has not been induced to enter into this Guaranty Agreement on the basis of a contemplation, belief, understanding, or agreement that any Person other than Borrowers or Guarantors will be liable to pay the Guaranteed Obligations. Lender has not made any representation, warranty, or statement to such Guarantor in order to induce such Guarantor to execute this Guaranty Agreement.

(c) Lender shall have the right to seek recourse against any or all Guarantors to the fullest extent provided for herein, and no election by Lender to proceed in one form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other parties unless Lender has expressly waived such right in writing. Without limiting the foregoing, no action or proceeding by Lender under any document or instrument evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations shall serve to diminish the liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement except to the extent that Lender finally and unconditionally shall have realized payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(d) Each Guarantor waives, and agrees that its liability hereunder shall not be affected by, any neglect, delay, omission, failure, or refusal of Lender to (i) exercise or properly or diligently exercise any right or remedy with respect to any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations or the collection thereof or any security interests or liens or other security for or guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any portion thereof, (ii) take or prosecute, or properly or diligently take or prosecute, any action for the collection of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations against any Borrower, any Guarantor or any other Person in respect of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations, (iii) foreclose or prosecute, or properly or diligently foreclose or prosecute, any action in connection with any agreement, document or instrument or arrangement evidencing, securing, or otherwise affecting all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or (iv) mitigate damages or take any other action to reduce, collect, or enforce the Guaranteed Obligations;

(f) Should Lender seek to enforce this Guaranty Agreement by action in any court or otherwise, each Guarantor waives any requirement, substantive or procedural, that (i) rights or remedies be enforced first against any Borrower or any other Person liable for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, that a judgment first be rendered against such Borrower or any such Person, or that such Borrower or any such Person should be joined in such cause or (ii) enforcement shall first be made against any Collateral or other property which shall ever have been given to secure all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or this Guaranty Agreement.

(g) No Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty Agreement shall be impaired by any action, if any, which results in the denial or impairment of any right to seek a deficiency against any Borrower.

(h) Each Guarantor agrees that it has the sole responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of Borrowers and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, and Lender shall not have any obligation or duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstance.

(i) Each Guarantor consents and agrees that Lender shall not have any obligation to marshal assets securing the Guaranteed Obligations in favor of such Guarantor.

(j) Lender may, at any time and from time to time in its discretion (subject to the Loan Agreement) and with or without valuable consideration, allow substitution or withdrawal of Collateral or other security and release Collateral or other security without impairing or diminishing the indebtedness, liabilities, or obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement.

(k) Any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of the amount of any principal and/or interest or other amount constituting any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be conclusive and binding on each Guarantor irrespective of whether such Guarantor was a party to the suit or action in which such determination was made.

6. Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Guarantor agrees to pay to Lender, at its office located in Dallas County, Texas, or at such other place as Lender may specify to such Guarantor in writing, on demand by Lender and without further notice of dishonor and without notice of any kind to any Borrower, any Guarantor, or any other Person, the full unpaid amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, in immediately available funds, or such lesser amount, if any, as may then be due and payable and demanded by Lender from time to time. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by Borrowers under or with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed or otherwise delayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by Guarantors hereunder promptly on demand by Lender, each Guarantor expressly and unconditionally agrees to make such payment to Lender in full.

7. No Waiver. No failure on the part of Lender to exercise, and no forbearance, delay or omission by Lender in exercising, any right or remedy hereunder shall impair such right or remedy or operate or be construed as a waiver thereof or any acquiescence therein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy hereunder.

8. Notice of Sale. In the event that Guarantors are entitled to receive any notice under the UCC, as it exists in the state governing any such notice, of the sale or other disposition of any Collateral or other property securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or this Guaranty Agreement, it is agreed that at least ten (10) days’ notice to Guarantors of the time and place of any public sale, or the time after which any private sale or other disposition may be made of any such Collateral or other property, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice in conformity with such requirements.

9. Payment by Guarantor. Whenever any Guarantor pays any sum which is or may become due under this Guaranty Agreement, written notice must be delivered to Lender contemporaneously with such payment.

10. Binding Effect. This Guaranty Agreement is for the benefit of Lender, and its successors and assigns, and in the event of an assignment by Lender (in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement) of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, the rights and benefits hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations so assigned, shall be deemed transferred with such indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations without necessity of further express action. This Guaranty Agreement is binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and permitted assigns.

11. Subordination of Indebtedness and Liens. The payment of any and all principal of and interest on all Debt of any Borrower to any Guarantor, whether direct, indirect, fixed, contingent, liquidated, unliquidated, joint, several, or joint and several, now or hereafter existing, due or to become due to such Guarantor under any and all circumstances, including, without limitation, any rights of subrogation of such Guarantor in respect of any payment by such Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement (herein called the “Subordinated Debt”), shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment and enforcement to the prior payment and enforcement in full of the Guaranteed Obligations as provided in this Section. Except to the extent, if any, as may be expressly permitted by the Loan Agreement, no payment shall be made on or with respect to the Subordinated Debt unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full. In the event that any Guarantor shall receive any payment on account of the Subordinated Debt in violation of this Section, such Guarantor will hold, or cause to be held (as the case may be), any amount so received in trust for the benefit of Lender and will forthwith deliver, or cause to be delivered (as the case may be), such payment to Lender, in the form received, to be applied to the Guaranteed Obligations. All security interests and liens, if any, at any time securing payment of all or any part of the Subordinated Debt (herein called the “Subordinated Liens”) shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to the security interests and liens securing payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of whether such Subordinated Liens presently exist or are hereafter created or when such Subordinated Liens were created, perfected, filed, or recorded (provided that the foregoing shall not be interpreted or deemed to allow the existence of any security interests or liens that are prohibited by the Loan Documents). No Guarantor shall exercise or enforce any creditors’ rights or remedies that it may have against any Borrower, or foreclose, repossess, sequester, or otherwise institute any action or proceeding (whether judicial or otherwise, including, without limitation, the commencement of, or joinder in, any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, liquidation, receivership, or other debtor relief law) to enforce the Subordinated Debt or any Subordinated Lien on any assets of any Borrower unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid and performed in full. The terms and provisions of this Section are given by Guarantors as additional rights and benefits to any and all other subordination agreements heretofore, concurrently herewith, or hereafter executed by any Guarantor to or in favor of Lender, and nothing in this Guaranty Agreement shall be deemed to in any way negate or replace any other such previous, concurrent, or subsequent subordination agreements.

12. Right of Offset. Each Guarantor hereby grants to Lender right of offset to secure the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations and such Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities hereunder, which right of offset shall be upon any and all monies, securities and other property (and the proceeds therefrom) of such Guarantor now or hereafter held or received by or in transit to Lender from or for the account of such Guarantor, whether for safekeeping, custody, pledge, transmission, collection or otherwise, and also upon any and all deposits (general or special), credits and claims of such Guarantor at any time existing against Lender. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, to offset, appropriate and apply any and all items hereinabove referred to against the Guaranteed Obligations and such Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities hereunder irrespective of whether or not Lender shall have made any demand under this Guaranty Agreement and although such obligations and liabilities may be contingent or unmatured. Lender agrees promptly to notify Guarantors after any such offset and application made by Lender, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such offset and application. The rights of Lender under this section are in addition to, and shall not be limited by, any other rights and remedies (including other rights of offset) which Lender may have.

13. Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term hereof, such provision shall be fully severable, this Guaranty Agreement shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision was not a part hereof, and the remaining provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary contained herein, no provision herein or in any other Loan Document evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations shall require the payment or permit the collection of interest in excess of the maximum permitted by any Applicable Law.

14. Modification in Writing. No modification, consent, amendment, or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor herefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of Lender and, as to any modification or amendment, such Guarantor, and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

15. Limited Effect of Notices; Consents. No notice to or demand on, or consent by, any Guarantor in any case shall, of itself, entitle any Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand, or right to grant or refuse consent, in similar or other circumstances.

16. Cumulative Rights. All rights and remedies of Lender under this Guaranty Agreement are cumulative of each other and of every other right or remedy which Lender may otherwise have under any applicable law or under any other agreement.

17. Expenses. Each Guarantor agrees, jointly and severally, to pay on demand all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, and performance of this Guaranty Agreement and any and all amendments, modifications, renewals, restatements, and/or supplements hereto from time to time, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees. If a Guarantor should breach or fail to perform any provision of this Guaranty Agreement, the Guarantors agree to pay to Lender all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Lender in the enforcement of this Guaranty Agreement from time to time, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees.

18. Limitation of Liability. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount of liability that can be incurred without rendering this Guaranty Agreement, as it relates to each Guarantor, voidable under Applicable Law relating to fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance, and not for any greater amount.
