(e)Cumulative Rights, etc. The rights, powers and remedies of the Guarantor under this Agreement shall be in addition to all rights, powers and remedies given to the Guarantor by virtue of any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental authority or any other agreement, all of which rights, powers, and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised successively or concurrently without impairing the Guarantor’s rights hereunder.





(f)Partial Invalidity; Reinstatement. If at any time any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law or any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby. If claim is ever made upon the Guarantor for rescission, repayment, recovery or restoration of any amount or amounts received by the Guarantor in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and the Guarantor repays all or part of said amount by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over the Guarantor or any of its property, then and in such event (A) the Company shall be and remain liable to the Guarantor hereunder for the amount so repaid or otherwise recovered or restored to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by the Guarantor, and (B) this Agreement shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, all as if such repayment or other recovery had not occurred.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and the mutual covenants and agreements as hereinafter set forth, the Lockbox Bank, the Company and the Guarantor agree as follows:

1.
The Lockbox Bank hereby confirms to the Guarantor that the Lockbox Account has been established with the Lockbox Bank.

2.
Following the receipt of a Trigger Event Notice (as defined herein) the Company agrees to immediately deposit all monies and proceeds of Collateral (as defined in the Pledge and Security Agreement) into the Lockbox Account upon its receipt thereof. Effective as of the date of this Agreement, the Company hereby irrevocably assigns and transfers to the Guarantor all right, title and interest in and to, and exclusive dominion and control of, the Lockbox Account and all sums, amounts or items of value now or hereafter on deposit in, credited or held in or payable from, the Lockbox Account (collectively, the “Deposits”, which further include, if applicable, all financial assets, security entitlements, investment property, and other property and the proceeds thereof now or at any time hereafter held in the Lockbox Account). Company and Lockbox Bank acknowledge and agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Lockbox Account shall be under the Guarantor’s sole control (as defined in Section
9.104 of the UCC). The Company hereby irrevocably authorizes, instructs and directs the Lockbox Bank to make all withdrawals, transfers or payments out of or in connection with the Lockbox Account solely in accordance with the instructions of the Guarantor and without the further consent of the Company or any other person. The Guarantor shall be irrevocably entitled to exercise any and all rights in respect of or in connection with the Lockbox Account including, without limitation, the right to specify when withdrawals, transfers and payments are to be made out of, or in connection with the Lockbox Account. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the foregoing Lockbox Account and all Deposits shall constitute Collateral under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. The Lockbox Bank hereby agrees to promptly notify the Guarantor of any new accounts opened by the Company at the Lockbox Bank.

3.
The Guarantor hereby acknowledges the transfer to it of exclusive dominion and control of the Lockbox Account, except as otherwise expressly provided in





this Agreement. Subject to and without waiver of the foregoing, the Guarantor hereby authorizes the Lockbox Bank to continue to accept instructions from the Company for the withdrawal, transfer or payment of funds from the Lockbox Account until the Guarantor notifies the Lockbox Bank in writing that a Trigger Event or Fundamental Trigger Event (as such terms are defined in the Credit Support Agreement) has occurred (any such notice, a “Trigger Event Notice”). Following its receipt of a Trigger Event Notice, the Lockbox Bank shall not honor any checks, other items or transfer instructions subsequently drawn or issued by the Company on or against the Lockbox Account, or previously so drawn or issued by the Company and remaining outstanding, (a) except at the direction or instruction of the Guarantor, or (b) until such time as Guarantor advises Lockbox Bank in writing that the Guarantor no longer claims any interest in the Lockbox Account, or (c) until this Agreement is terminated.

4.
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Lockbox Bank shall apply and credit for deposit to the Lockbox Account all Deposits from time to time tendered by or on behalf of the Company for deposit therein, including without limitation all wire transfers and other payments directed to the Lockbox Account.

5.
The Company is and shall remain responsible for, and agrees to pay all of the Lockbox Bank’s usual and customary service charges, fees, costs, and expenses incurred in the ordinary course of operating and maintaining the Lockbox Account (collectively, the “Charges and Fees”), including without limitation the Charges and Fees for (a) treasury reporting (including online access thereto) provided on the Lockbox Account, (b) funds transfer services received with respect to the Lockbox Account, (c) lockbox processing services, (d) funds advanced to cover overdrafts in the Lockbox Account (but without the Lockbox Bank being in any way obligated to make any such advances), (e) duplicate bank statements, (f) treasury management service(s) that may be required to block the Lockbox Account as contemplated hereunder, and (g) the costs, expenses and liability associated with Returned Items (defined below), in each case, to the extent applicable. The Lockbox Bank shall obtain payment of the Charges and Fees by debiting the Lockbox Account on the Business Day that the Charges and Fees are due, without notice to the Company or the Guarantor. If there are insufficient funds in the Lockbox Account to fully cover the Charges and Fees on the Business Day Lockbox Bank attempts to debit the Charges and Fees, the Company shall pay such shortfall or amount to Lockbox Bank, without setoff or counterclaim, within five (5) calendar days after written demand from the Lockbox Bank. Except as otherwise indicated in this Agreement, Guarantor shall not have any responsibility or liability for payment of any Charges and Fees. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Business Day” means a day of the year, other than (a) Saturdays, (b) Sundays or (c) any day on which banks are required or authorized by law to close in Dallas, Texas.

6.
If any items previously credited to the Lockbox Account should be returned to the Lockbox Bank, then the Lockbox Bank shall have the right to charge any or all of such returned items to the Lockbox Account. For purposes of this Agreement, "Returned Items" means: (a) items deposited to the Lockbox Account and returned unpaid, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, (b) automatic clearing house or other electronic entries credited to the Lockbox Account and later reversed or





returned, whether for insufficient funds or for any other reason, (c) any credit to the Lockbox Account from a merchant card transaction, against which a contractual demand for chargeback has been made, (d) any credit to the Lockbox Account made in error or mistake and later reversed or debited, and (e) any items in relation to which claims of or concerning breach of the transfer or presentment warranties are made to the Lockbox Bank pursuant to the UCC or common law in connection with negotiable instruments deposited to the Lockbox Account. If, after the Lockbox Bank’s disbursement or transfer of funds from the Lockbox Account at the Guarantor’s order or instruction as provided in this Agreement, there are insufficient funds in the Lockbox Account to reimburse the Lockbox Bank in the full amount of any such Returned Items, then Guarantor shall reimburse the Lockbox Bank in immediately available funds within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of written demand from the Lockbox Bank, provided that such reimbursement shall be limited to the aggregate amount previously disbursed or transferred by the Lockbox Bank from the Lockbox Account at the Guarantor’s order or instruction. The Company and the Guarantor acknowledge and agree that the Lockbox Bank shall not be required by this Agreement to pay the Company or the Guarantor from uncollected funds (i.e., funds that are not available for immediate withdrawal in accordance with the Lockbox Bank’s funds availability policy as set forth in the deposit agreement applicable to the Lockbox Account).

7.
Except for those Charges and Fees payable pursuant to Section 5 hereof, those Returned Items as defined or referenced in Section 6 hereof, the Lockbox Bank agrees that it will not exercise any right of set-off or deduction against the Lockbox Account. The Lockbox Bank waives any banker’s lien, security interest or other claim that it may now or hereafter have against the Lockbox Account.

8.

9.
Upon the Guarantor’s written request (which request need be made only once and not on a recurring basis), the Lockbox Bank shall provide Guarantor with (a) copies of the regular monthly bank statements for the Lockbox Account substantially concurrently with delivery of the original statements to the Company, and such other information relating to the Lockbox Account as is provided to the Company, and (b) on- line screen access to daily activity in the Lockbox Account, whether by Internet access or otherwise. The Company hereby authorizes the Lockbox Bank to provide to the Guarantor any account information requested by the Guarantor. The Lockbox Bank’s





liability for failing to provide any account statement will not exceed Lockbox Bank’s cost of providing the statement.

10.
All notices, including any Trigger Event Notice, instructions, requests and other communications required or permitted to be delivered hereunder (collectively, “Notices”) shall be in writing and shall be effective: (a) upon delivery to the address of a party specified on the signature pages hereof (each a “Notice Address”), if personally delivered by a nationally recognized courier service; (b) as of the date of receipt at a Notice Address in the case of facsimile transmission; or three (3) business days after mailing to a Notice Address if sent by first class U.S. mail, postage prepaid. Any party hereto, at any time, by written notice given to the other parties hereto in accordance with this Section, may designate a different address to which such communications shall thereafter be directed.

11.
The Lockbox Bank shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon any Trigger Event Notice or any other notice or instruction it receives from the Guarantor and the Lockbox Bank shall have no obligation to investigate or verify the genuineness or correctness of any such notice or instruction, or otherwise any duty to inquire as to the terms of or any default under the Credit Support Documents. The Company and the Guarantor acknowledge and agree that the Lockbox Bank may act in reliance upon any writing or instrument or signature which it, in good faith, believes to be genuine, may assume the validity and accuracy of any statement or assertion contained in any such writing or instrument, and may assume that any person purporting to give any writing, notice, advice or instructions in connection with the provisions of this Agreement has been duly authorized, without liability to any party. In the event of a conflict between any instruction or direction given to the Lockbox Bank by or on behalf of the Guarantor and any instruction or direction given to the Bank by or on behalf of the Company, the Lockbox Bank shall comply with the instruction or direction given by the Guarantor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lockbox Bank shall be conclusively entitled to assume that the Guarantor’s giving of a Notice is permitted by agreement of the Company.

12.
The Company and the Guarantor acknowledge and agree that the Lockbox Bank shall not be liable to either of them for any expense, claim, loss, damage or cost ("Damages") that either of them may claim to have suffered or incurred, whether directly or indirectly, arising out of or relating to the Lockbox Bank’s performance under this Agreement, other than those Damages that result directly from the Lockbox Bank’s gross negligence or intentional misconduct. In no event shall the Lockbox Bank be liable to the Company or the Guarantor for losses or delays caused by the interruption of communications or communication facilities, computer malfunction or labor difficulties beyond the Lockbox Bank’s reasonable control, or other causes beyond the Lockbox Bank’s reasonable control, or for indirect, special or consequential damages.

13.

15.
Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Agreement, the Lockbox Bank shall be permitted to comply with any judicial order, decree, writ, levy or other similar judicial or regulatory order or process concerning the Lockbox Account or any matter relating to this Agreement, and shall not be in violation of this Agreement or liable to the Company or the Guarantor for so doing irrespective whether such order, decree, writ, levy or similar judicial or regulatory order or process is subsequently reversed, modified, annulled, set aside, vacated, or found to have been entered without jurisdiction.

16.
This Agreement is intended to be performed in the State of Texas, which is Bank’s jurisdiction for purposes of Article 9 of the UCC. The laws of the State of Texas (except for conflicts of law rules) shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Agreement, which is performable in Dallas County, Texas.

All billings and invoices issued by Grantor with respect to its Accounts Receivable will be in compliance with, and conform to, the requirements of all applicable federal, state and local laws and any applicable laws of any relevant foreign jurisdiction. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Guarantor so directs, Grantor shall legend, in form and manner satisfactory to the Guarantor, its Accounts Receivable and Contracts, as well as books, records and documents of Grantor evidencing or pertaining thereto with an appropriate reference to the fact that such Accounts Receivable and Contracts have been assigned to the Guarantor and that the Guarantor has a security interest therein.

(b)Collateral Reports. Whenever requested to do so by the Guarantor, Grantor will promptly, at its own sole cost and expense, deliver to the Guarantor, in written hard copy form or other readable form, as specified by the Guarantor, such listings, agings, descriptions, schedules and other reports with respect to its Accounts Receivable and other Collateral as the Guarantor may instruct, all of the same to be in such scope, categories and detail as the Guarantor may reasonably request and to be accompanied by copies of invoices and other documentation as and to the extent instructed by the Guarantor.

Section 4.08 Legal Status. Grantor agrees that (a) it will not change its name, place of business or if more than one, chief executive office, or its mailing address or organizational identification number if it has one, in each case without providing the Guarantor at least thirty days’ prior written notice thereof, (b) if Grantor does not have an organizational identification number and later obtains one, it will promptly notify the Guarantor of such organizational identification number, and (c) it will not change its type of organization, jurisdiction of organization or other legal structure in each case unless (i) it shall have provided the Guarantor at least thirty days’ prior written notice thereof, and (ii) such action is permitted pursuant to the Credit Support Agreement.

Any procedures or actions taken, prior to the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, in order to verify accounts by contacting account debtors, shall be effected by the Grantor’s independent accountants, acting at the direction of the Guarantor, in such manner (consistent with their normal auditing procedures) so as not to reveal the identity of the Guarantor or the existence of the security interest to the account debtors. The Grantor will instruct its independent accountants to undertake any such verification when and as requested by the Guarantor. The results of any such verification by independent accountants shall be reported by such independent accountants to both the Guarantor and the Grantor.

(a)personally, or by agents’ attorneys or other authorized representatives, immediately retake possession of the Collateral or any part thereof from Grantor or any other Person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon Grantor’s or such other Person’s premises where any of the Collateral is located and remove the same and use in connection with such removal any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of Grantor;

(b)instruct the obligor or obligors on any Account Receivable, agreement, instrument or other obligation (including, without limitation, account debtors) constituting the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such Account Receivable, agreement, instrument or other obligation directly to the Guarantor and/or directly to a lockbox under the sole dominion and control of the Guarantor;

(c)sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, or direct Grantor to sell, assign or otherwise liquidate, any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale or liquidation;

(h)enter into any extension of, or any other agreement in any way relating to, any of
the Collateral;

(i)make any compromise or settlement the Guarantor deems desirable or necessary with respect to any of the Collateral; and/or

(j)take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing Grantor or any other Person in possession thereof in writing to deliver the same to the Guarantor at any place or places designated by the Guarantor, in which event Grantor shall at its own expense:

(i)    forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places so designated by the Guarantor and delivered to the Guarantor,

(ii)    store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Guarantor at such place or places pending further action by the Guarantor as provided in Section 8.02, and

(iii)    while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in substantially the same condition prior to such action;

it being understood that Grantor’s obligation so to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Guarantor shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by Grantor of said obligation.

Section 8.02 Disposition of the Collateral. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any Collateral repossessed by the Guarantor under or pursuant to Section 8.01 and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the Guarantor, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale of the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Guarantor may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law, determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold, leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Guarantor or after any overhaul or repair which the Guarantor shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Except in the case of any Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, (i) in the case of any such disposition which shall be a private sale or other private proceedings permitted by such requirements, such sale shall be made upon not less than ten days’ written notice to Grantor specifying the time at which such disposition is to be made and the intended sale price or other consideration therefor, and shall be subject, for the ten days after the giving of such notice, to the right of the relevant Grantor or any nominee of the relevant Grantor to acquire the Collateral involved at a price or for such other consideration at least equal to the intended sale price or other consideration so specified, and (ii) in the case of any such disposition which shall be a public sale permitted by such requirements, such sale shall be made upon not less than ten days’ written notice to the Grantor specifying the time and place of such sale and, in the absence of applicable requirements of law, shall be by public auction (which may, at the Guarantor’s sole option, be subject to reserve), after publication of notice of such auction not less than ten days prior thereto in two newspapers





in general circulation in the city where such Collateral is located. To the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Guarantor may bid for and become the purchaser (by bidding in Secured Obligations or otherwise) of the Collateral or any item thereof offered for sale in accordance with this Section without accountability to the relevant Grantor (except to the extent of surplus money received as provided in Section 8.05). Unless so obligated under mandatory requirements of applicable law, the Guarantor shall not be required to make disposition of the Collateral within a period of time which does not permit the giving of notice to the Grantor as hereinabove specified. The Guarantor need give the relevant Grantor only such notice of disposition as the Guarantor shall deem to be reasonably practicable in view of such mandatory requirements of applicable law.

Section 8.03    Intentionally Omitted.

Section 8.04 Waiver of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTICE AND JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH THE GUARANTOR’S TAKING POSSESSION OR THE GUARANTOR’S DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL PRIOR NOTICE AND HEARING FOR ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR REMEDIES AND ANY SUCH RIGHT WHICH THE GRANTOR WOULD OTHERWISE HAVE UNDER THE CONSTITUTION OR ANY STATUTE OF THE UNITED
STATES OR OF ANY STATE, and Grantor hereby further waives, to the extent permitted by law: (i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession except any damages which are the direct result of the Guarantor’s gross negligence or willful misconduct; (ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Guarantor’s rights hereunder; and (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof, and Grantor, for itself and all who may claim under it, insofar as it or they now or hereafter lawfully may, hereby waives the benefit of all such laws to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law now or hereafter in effect. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the relevant Grantor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against the relevant Grantor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through and under the relevant Grantor.

Section 8.05 Application of Proceeds. All Collateral and proceeds of Collateral obtained and realized by the Guarantor in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement pursuant to this Article VIII shall be applied as follows:

(i)first, to the payment to the Guarantor, for application to the Secured
Obligations; and

(ii)second, to the extent remaining after the application pursuant to the preceding clause (i) and following the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.09 hereof, to the relevant Grantor or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive such payment.

Section 8.06 Remedies Cumulative. Each and every right, power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Guarantor shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy specifically given under this Agreement or the other Credit Support Documents or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, or by statute, and each and every right, power and remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time or simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Guarantor. All such rights, powers and remedies shall be cumulative





and the exercise or the beginning of exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Guarantor in the exercise of any such right, power or remedy, or partial or single exercise thereof, and no renewal or extension of any of the Secured Obligations, shall impair or constitute a waiver of any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. No notice to or demand on Grantor in any case shall entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Guarantor to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. In the event that the Guarantor shall bring any suit to enforce any of its rights hereunder and shall be entitled to judgment, then in such suit the Guarantor may recover reasonable, actual expenses, including attorneys’ fees, and the amounts thereof shall be included in such judgment.

Section 8.07 Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Guarantor shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Guarantor, then and in every such case the relevant Grantor, the Guarantor and each holder of any of the Secured Obligations shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral subject to the security interest created under this Agreement, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Guarantor shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 8.08 Purchasers of Collateral. Upon any sale of any of the Collateral by the Guarantor hereunder (whether by virtue of the power of sale herein granted, pursuant to judicial process or otherwise), the receipt of the Guarantor or the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold, and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part of the purchase money paid over to the Guarantor or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication or nonapplication thereof.

AGREEMENT

For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.    Guaranty. (a) Guarantor unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay to the Bank, in accordance with the payment instructions contained in the Contract, on demand after the default by the Obligor in the performance of its payment obligations under the Contract, in lawful money of the United States, any and all Obligations (as hereinafter defined) consisting of payments due to the Bank. For purposes of this Guaranty, the term “Obligations” means and includes the obligation of the Obligor to pay principal and interest to the Bank pursuant to the Contract, provided that the Guarantor’s maximum aggregate liability for principal hereunder shall not exceed $[100 million]. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Obligations” does not include fees, expenses or other amounts payable by the Obligor to the Bank.

(b)This Guaranty is absolute, unconditional, continuing and irrevocable, constitutes an independent guaranty of payment and is in no way conditioned on or contingent upon any attempt to enforce in whole or in part any of the Obligor’s Obligations to the Bank, the existence or continuance of the Obligor as a legal entity, the consolidation or merger of the Obligor with or into any other entity, the sale, lease or disposition by the Obligor of all or substantially all of its assets to any other entity, or the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Obligor, the admission by the Obligor of its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or the making by the Obligor of a general assignment for the benefit of, or entering into a composition or arrangement with, creditors. If the Obligor fails to pay or perform any Obligations to the Bank that are subject to this Guaranty as and when they are due, the Guarantor shall forthwith pay to the Bank all such liabilities or obligations in immediately available funds. Each failure by the Obligor to pay any Obligations shall give rise to a separate cause of action, and separate suits may be brought hereunder as each cause of action arises.

(c)The Bank may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Guarantor, except such notice as may be required by applicable statute that cannot be waived, without incurring responsibility to the Guarantor, and without impairing or releasing the obligations of the





Guarantor hereunder, (i) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Obligor or others (including the Guarantor) or otherwise act or refrain from acting, (ii) settle or compromise any Obligations hereby guaranteed and/or any other obligations and liabilities (including any of those hereunder) incurred directly or indirectly in respect thereof or hereof, and may subordinate the payment of all or any part thereof to the payment of any obligations and liabilities which may be due to the Bank or others, and (iii) sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon or otherwise deal with in any manner or in any order any property pledged or mortgaged by anyone to secure or in any manner securing the Obligations hereby guaranteed.

(d)The Bank may not, without the prior written consent of the Guarantor, (i) change the manner, place and terms of payment or change or extend the time of payment of, renew, or alter any Obligation hereby guaranteed, or in any manner modify, amend or supplement the terms of the Contract or any documents, instruments or agreements executed in connection therewith, (ii) take and hold security or additional security for any or all of the obligations or liabilities covered by this Guaranty, or (iii) assign its rights and interests under this Guaranty, in whole or in part.

(e)No invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of the Obligations hereby guaranteed shall affect, impair, or be a defense to this Guaranty. This is a continuing Guaranty for which Guarantor receives continuing consideration and all obligations to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon and this Guaranty is therefore irrevocable without the prior written consent of the Bank.

3.    Waivers. (a) The Guarantor, to the extent permitted under applicable law, hereby waives any right to require Bank to (i) proceed against the Obligor or any other guarantor of the Obligor’s obligations under the Contract, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security received from the Obligor or any other guarantor of the Obligor’s Obligations under the Contract, or (iii) pursue any other right or remedy in the Bank’s power whatsoever.

(ii)any right to exoneration of sureties that would otherwise be applicable, (iv) any right of subrogation or reimbursement and, if there are any other guarantors of the Obligations, any right of contribution, and right to enforce any remedy that the Bank now has or may hereafter have against the Obligor, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter received by Bank, (v) all presentments, demands for performance, notices of non-performance, notices delivered under the Contract, protests, notice of dishonor, and notices of acceptance of this Guaranty and of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Obligations and notices of any public or private foreclosure sale, (vi) any appraisement, valuation, stay, extension, moratorium redemption or similar law or similar rights for marshalling, and (vii) any right to be informed by the Bank of the financial condition of the Obligor or any other guarantor of the Obligations or any change therein or any other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment or nonperformance of the Obligations. The Guarantor has the ability to and assumes the responsibility for keeping informed of the financial condition of the Obligor and any other guarantors of the Obligations and of other circumstances affecting such nonpayment and nonperformance risks.
