(g) No payment or payments made by Seller or any other Person or received or collected by Buyer from Seller or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments, remain liable for the amount of the Obligations (subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2(b), if applicable) until the Obligations are paid in full.

(h) Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, Guarantor shall make any payment to Buyer on account of Guarantor’s liability hereunder, Guarantor will notify Buyer in writing that such payment is made under this Guarantee for such purpose.

3. Subrogation. Upon making any payment hereunder, Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of Buyer against Seller and any collateral for any Obligations with respect to such payment; provided, that Guarantor shall not seek to enforce any right or receive any payment by way of subrogation until all amounts due and payable by Seller to Buyer under the Repurchase Documents or any related documents have been paid in full; and, further provided, that such subrogation rights shall be subordinate in all respects to all amounts owing to the Buyer under the Repurchase Documents.

4. Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations. Until the Obligations have been fully satisfied and paid in full, Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by Buyer may be rescinded by Buyer and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or

Buyer shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guarantee or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against Guarantor, Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on Seller or any other guarantor, and any failure by Buyer to make any such demand or to collect any payments from Seller or any such other guarantor or any release of Seller or such other guarantor shall not relieve Guarantor of its Obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of Buyer against Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.

5. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. (a) Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations under this Guarantee constitute a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection. Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by Buyer upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee; and all dealings between Seller or Guarantor, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon Seller or Guarantor with respect to the Obligations. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (i) the validity, regularity or enforceability of any Agreement, any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by Buyer, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by Seller against Buyer, (iii) any requirement that Buyer exhaust any right to take any action against Seller or any other Person prior to or contemporaneously with proceeding to exercise any right against Guarantor under this Guarantee or (iv) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or Knowledge of Seller or Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of Seller for the Obligations of Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against Guarantor, Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation, to pursue such rights and remedies that Buyer may have against Seller or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by Buyer to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from Seller or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of Seller or any such other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer against Guarantor. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon each Guarantor and its respective successors and assigns thereof, and

-5-

shall inure to the benefit of Buyer, and their respective successors and permitted endorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Obligations and the obligations of Guarantor under this Guarantee shall have been satisfied by payment in full, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Repurchase Documents Seller may be free from any Obligations.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except to the extent any of the following expressly relieves Guarantor of any of the Obligations, the occurrence of one or more of the following shall not preclude the exercise by Buyer of any right, remedy or power hereunder or alter or impair the liability of the Guarantor hereunder, which shall, remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional:

(i) at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, waived or renewed, or Seller shall be released from any of the Obligations, or any of the Obligations shall be subordinated in right of payment to any other liability of Seller;

(ii) any of the Obligations shall be accelerated or otherwise become due prior to their stated maturity, in any case, in accordance with the terms of the Repurchase Agreement, or any of the Obligations shall be amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified in any respect, or any right under the Repurchase Agreement shall be waived, or any other guaranty of any of the Obligations or any security therefor shall be released, substituted or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(iii) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default under the Repurchase Agreement, or the occurrence of any similar event (howsoever described) under any agreement or instrument referred to therein;

(v) any delay, failure or inability of Seller or any other guarantor or obligor in respect of any of the Obligations to perform, willful or otherwise, any provision of the Repurchase Agreement beyond any applicable cure periods;

(vi) any action or failure to act by Buyer that adversely affects Guarantor’s right of subrogation arising by reason of any performance by Guarantor of this Guarantee;

(vii) any suit or other action brought by, or any judgment in favor of, any beneficiaries or creditors of, Seller or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, including any suit or action in any way disaffirming, repudiating, rejecting or otherwise calling into question any issue, matter or thing in respect of the Repurchase Agreement;

(ix) any change in the laws, rules or regulations of any jurisdiction, or any present or future action or order of any Governmental Authority, amending, varying or otherwise affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or the obligations of any other guarantor or obligor in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(x) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Repurchase Agreement for any reason, including any bar by any statute of limitations or other law of recovery on any obligation under the Repurchase Agreement, or any defense or excuse for failure to perform on account of any event of force majeure, act of God, casualty, impossibility, impracticability, or other defense or excuse whatsoever;

(xi) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, the Repurchase Agreement or any obligation thereunder, including any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Repurchase Agreement, in any such case, made or effected in accordance with the terms of the Repurchase Agreement;

(xii) any action which Buyer may take or omit to take in connection with the Repurchase Agreement, any of the obligations thereunder (or any Indebtedness owing by Seller to Buyer); any giving or failure to give any notice; any course of dealing of Buyer with Seller or any other Person; or any neglect, delay, failure, or refusal to take or prosecute any action for the collection or enforcement of the Repurchase Agreement or any obligation thereunder, to foreclose or take or prosecute any action in connection with the Repurchase Agreement, to bring suit against Seller or any other Person, or to file a claim in any Insolvency Proceeding;

(xiii) any compromise or settlement of any part of the Repurchase Agreement or obligations thereunder or any other amount claimed to be owing under the Repurchase Agreement;

(xiv) any modification of the Repurchase Agreement, in any form whatsoever, including any modification made after revocation hereof to any Indebtedness incurred prior to such revocation, and including, without limitation, the renewal, extension, adjustment, indulgence, forbearance, acceleration or other change in time for payment of, or other change in the terms of, the Indebtedness or any portion thereof, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon;

(xv) any impairment of the value of any interest in any Purchased Assets or Pledged Collateral or any portion thereof, including, without limitation, the failure to obtain or maintain perfection or recordation of any interest in any such Purchased Assets or Pledged Collateral, the release of any such Purchased Assets or Pledged Collateral without substitution, and/or the failure to preserve the value of, or to comply with applicable law in disposing of, any such Purchased Assets or Pledged Collateral;

(xvii) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Seller; or any release, substitution or addition of any other obligor, or any Insolvency Event or Insolvency Proceeding with respect to Seller; or

(xviii) any action or inaction of Seller or any other Person, or any change of law or circumstances, or any other facts or events which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Seller, or a guarantor or surety.

(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby agrees, acknowledges, and represents and warrants to Buyer as follows:

(i) Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives: (A) any defense arising by reason of, and any and all right to assert against Buyer any claim or defense based upon, an election of remedies by Buyer which in any manner impairs, affects, reduces, releases, destroys and/or extinguishes Guarantor’s subrogation rights, rights to proceed against Seller, or any other guarantor for reimbursement or contribution, and/or any other rights of Guarantor to proceed against Seller, against any other guarantor, or against any other person or security, (B) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of Seller or Guarantor, (C) any defense based upon the application by Seller of any Purchase Price under the Repurchase Agreement for purposes other than the purposes represented by Seller to Buyer or intended or understood by Buyer or Guarantor, (D) any defense based upon Buyer’s failure to disclose to Guarantor any information concerning Seller’s financial condition or any other circumstances bearing on Seller’s ability to pay all sums payable under the Repurchase Documents, (E) any defense based upon any statute or rule of law that provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal, (F) any defense based upon Buyer’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute, (G) any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code and (H) any right of subrogation, any right to enforce any remedy that Guarantor may have against Seller or any other Person liable for the Obligations and any right to participate in, or benefit from, any security for the Repurchase Agreement or Repurchase Documents now or hereafter held by Buyer.

(ii) Guarantor further unconditionally and irrevocably waives any and all rights and defenses that Guarantor may have as a result of Seller’s obligations under the Repurchase Documents being backed and/or secured by real property. Among other things, Guarantor agrees: (1) Buyer may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property sold by Seller under the Repurchase Agreement and/or in

-8-

which a security interest has been granted to Buyer pursuant to Article 11 of the Repurchase Agreement (herein “Related Property”), (2) if Buyer forecloses on any Related Property, then (A) the amount of Seller’s debt and Guarantor’s obligation hereunder may be reduced only by the price for which such collateral is sold at any foreclosure sale (whether public or private), even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Buyer may collect from Guarantor pursuant to the terms of this Guarantee even if Buyer, by foreclosing on any Related Property, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Seller or its Affiliates. The foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because the Obligations are secured by real property. Guarantor further waives any rights it may have under Sections 1301 or 1371 of the Real Property Actions and Proceedings Law of the State of New York.

(iii) Guarantor further expressly waives to the fullest extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses, including any rights of reimbursement, indemnification and contribution, that might otherwise be available to Guarantor under applicable law.

(iv) Guarantor agrees that the performance of any act or any payment that tolls any statute of limitations applicable to the Repurchase Agreement or any Repurchase Document shall similarly operate to toll the statute of limitations applicable to Guarantor’s liability hereunder.

(v) Guarantor agrees that (A) the obligations of Guarantor under this Guarantee are independent of the obligations of Seller or any other Person under the Repurchase Documents, (B) a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor to enforce this Guarantee, irrespective of whether an action is brought against Seller or any other Person or whether Seller or any other Person is joined in any such action, and (C) concurrent actions may be brought hereon against Guarantor in the same action, if any, brought against Seller or any other Person or in separate actions, as often as Buyer, in its sole discretion, may deem advisable.

(vi) Guarantor is presently informed of the financial condition of Seller and of all other circumstances which diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. Guarantor hereby covenants that it will make its own investigation and will continue to keep itself informed about Seller’s financial condition, the status of other guarantors, if any, of circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment and that it will continue to rely upon sources other than Buyer for such information and will not rely upon Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer for any such information. Absent a written request for such information by Guarantor to Buyer, Guarantor hereby waives the right, if any, to require Buyer to disclose to Guarantor any information which Buyer may now or hereafter acquire concerning such condition or circumstances including, but not limited to, the release of or revocation by any other guarantor.

(vii) Guarantor has independently reviewed the Repurchase Documents and related agreements and has made an independent determination as to the validity and

-9-

enforceability thereof, and in executing and delivering this Guarantee to Buyer, Guarantor is not in any manner relying upon the validity, and/or enforceability, and/or attachment, and/or perfection of any liens or security interests of any kind or nature granted by Seller or any other guarantor to Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer, now or at any time and from time to time in the future.

6. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by Buyer upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Seller or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Seller or any substantial part of Seller’s property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

7. Payments. Guarantor hereby agrees that the Obligations will be paid to Buyer without set-off or counterclaim in U.S. Dollars at the address specified in writing by Buyer.

8. Representations and Warranties. Guarantor represents and warrants that:

(a) Guarantor has the legal capacity and the legal right to execute and deliver this Guarantee and to perform Guarantor’s obligations hereunder;

(b) no consent or authorization of, filing with, or other act by or in respect of, any arbitrator or governmental authority and no consent of any other Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of Guarantor) is required in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Guarantee;

Guarantor shall be deemed directly indebted to Buyer in the full amount of all amounts owing to Buyer by Guarantor under the Repurchase Documents and the Obligations, and Buyer shall be entitled to exercise the rights of set-off provided for above. ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE BUYER TO EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO THE PURCHASED ASSETS UNDER THE REPURCHASE DOCUMENTS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING THE FOREGOING RIGHT OF SET-OFF, ARE HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED BY GUARANTOR.

(b) Buyer shall promptly notify Guarantor after any such set-off and application made by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. If an amount or obligation is unascertained, Buyer may in good faith estimate that obligation and set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the other party when the amount or obligation is ascertained. Nothing in this Section 10 shall be effective to create a charge or other security interest. This Section 10 shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, Lien or other rights to which any party is at any time otherwise entitled.

(c) Guarantor hereby waives any right of setoff it has or may have or to which it may be or become entitled under the Repurchase Documents or otherwise against Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer, or their respective assets or properties.

11. Severability. Any provision of this Guarantee that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

12. Paragraph Headings. The paragraph headings used in this Guarantee are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in the interpretation hereof.

13. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of Buyer, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by Buyer of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Buyer would otherwise have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

14. Waivers and Amendments; Successors and Assigns; Governing Law. None of the terms or provisions of this Guarantee may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by Guarantor and Buyer, provided that, subject to any limitations set forth in the Repurchase Agreement, any provision of this Guarantee may be waived by Buyer in a letter or agreement executed by Buyer or by facsimile or e-mail transmission from Buyer. This Guarantee shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of Guarantor and shall inure to the benefit of Buyer, and its respective successors and assigns. THIS GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAWS.
