renewal of any of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything contained in this Guaranty to the contrary, Guarantor shall have the right to assert all claims and defenses hereunder and under the Lease to the extent that Lessee is permitted such claim or defense, with respect to the Lease, by applicable law.

4. Representations and Warranties. Guarantor represents and warrants to Lessor that: (a) neither the execution nor delivery of this Guaranty nor fulfillment of nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof will conflict with, or result in a breach of the terms or conditions of, or constitute a default under, Guarantor’s articles of incorporation, bylaws, or any standing resolution of its board of directors or, to Guarantor’s knowledge, any agreement to which Guarantor is a party, or result in the creation of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of Guarantor, which conflict, breach, default, lien, charge or encumbrance could result in a material adverse change in the financial condition of Guarantor; (b) no further consents, approvals or authorizations are required for the execution and delivery of this Guaranty by Guarantor or for Guarantor’s compliance with the terms and provisions of this Guaranty other than those which have been duly obtained by Guarantor and are in full force and effect; (c) this Guaranty is the legal, valid and binding agreement of Guarantor and is enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization and other laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and subject to general principles of equity; (d) Guarantor has the full power, authority, capacity and legal right to execute and deliver this Guaranty, and the parties executing this Guaranty on behalf of Guarantor are fully authorized and directed to execute the same to bind Guarantor; (e) Guarantor is not, and if Guarantor is a “disregarded entity,” any owner of the disregarded entity is not, a “nonresident alien,” “foreign corporation,” “foreign partnership,” “foreign trust,” “foreign estate,” or any other “person” that is not a “United States person,” as those terms are defined in the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder; (f) Guarantor is not a party with whom a citizen of the United States is prohibited from engaging in transactions by any trade embargo, economic sanction or other prohibition of United States law, regulation or Executive Order of the President of the United States; (g) all financial statements and other information relating to Guarantor heretofore delivered to Lessor are true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the date they were furnished to Lessor, and to the extent not filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and publicly available on EDGAR, Guarantor will furnish Lessor, within forty five (45) days after the end of each fiscal quarter of Guarantor and within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of each fiscal year of Guarantor, complete financial statements of Guarantor, including a balance sheet, profit and loss statement, statement of changes in financial condition and all other related schedules for the fiscal period then ended (in addition to any reporting requirements of Guarantor set forth in Section 9.03 of the Lease); (h) during the term of this Guaranty, Guarantor will not transfer or dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor’s assets except (1) in the ordinary course of business for fair consideration in arm’s length transactions, or (2) to the extent that such transfer or disposition does not reasonably impair Guarantor’s ability to satisfy the Obligations; and (i) the Documents are conclusively presumed to have been signed in reliance on this Guaranty, and the assumption by Guarantor of Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty results in direct financial benefit to Guarantor. Guarantor understands that Lessor is relying on the representations and warranties of Guarantor, and Guarantor represents that such reliance is reasonable.

5. Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty shall commence upon execution and delivery of the Lease and shall continue in full force and effect until all of the Obligations are paid and performed in full and are not subject to any right of extension by Lessee; provided,

however, in the event the Lease is assigned as permitted under the Lease, and in connection therewith, Lessor receives a replacement Guaranty that is acceptable to Lessor in its reasonable discretion, then Guarantor’s liability shall be limited to the obligations of Lessee accruing prior to the assignment and effective date of the replacement guaranty. The Obligations shall not be considered fully paid, performed and discharged unless and until all payments by Lessee to Lessor are no longer subject to any right on the part of any Person whomsoever, including but not limited to Lessee, Lessee as a debtor-in-possession and/or any trustee in bankruptcy, to disgorge such payments or seek to recoup the amount of such payments or any part thereof. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective upon an Insolvency Event. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as applicable, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by Lessor, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid to Lessor and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

6. Subordination. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Guaranty, in the event that Guarantor shall have any claims against Lessee, upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default under the Lease, any indebtedness of Lessee held by Guarantor shall be automatically subordinated to the indebtedness of Lessee to Lessor, including, without limitation, any and all amounts due to Lessor under the Lease. In the event Guarantor should receive from Lessee any payments in partial or full satisfaction of such indebtedness of Lessee to Guarantor following written request from Lessor after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default under the Lease, Guarantor agrees to hold such amount received in trust for Lessor and to pay the same to Lessor, but only to the extent of the Obligations then owing by Lessee to Lessor.

7. Intentionally Deleted.

8. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. In addition to the amounts guaranteed under this Guaranty, Guarantor agrees to pay (a) all of Lessor’s Costs, and (b) interest (including postpetition interest to the extent a petition is filed by or against Lessee under the Bankruptcy Code) at the Default Rate on any Obligations not paid when due, subject to applicable notice and cure provisions. Guarantor hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lessor for, from and against all Losses suffered or occasioned by the failure of Lessee to satisfy its obligations under the Documents. The agreement to indemnify Lessor contained in this Section shall be enforceable notwithstanding the invalidity or unenforceability of the Documents or any of them or the invalidity or unenforceability of any other paragraph contained in this Guaranty. All moneys available to Lessor for application in payment or reduction of the liabilities of Lessee under the Documents may be applied by Lessor to the payment or reduction of such liabilities of Lessee, in such manner, in such amounts and at such time or times as Lessor may elect.

9. Notice. All notices, demands, designations, certificates, requests, offers, consents, approvals, appointments and other instruments given pursuant to this Guaranty (collectively called “Notices”) shall be in writing and given by any one of the following: (a) hand delivery; (b) express overnight delivery service; (c) certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; or (d) electronic mail message, and shall be deemed to have been delivered upon (i) receipt, if hand delivered, (ii) the next Business Day, if delivered by a reputable express overnight delivery service; (iii) the third Business Day following the day of deposit of such notice
