In furtherance of the foregoing, the undersigned hereby agree as follows:

 

 

1.

No Impairment. Laurus may at any time and from time to time, either before or after the maturity thereof, without notice to or further consent of the undersigned, extend the time of payment of, exchange or surrender any collateral for, renew or extend any of the Obligations or increase or decrease the interest rate thereon, or any other agreement with any or all of the Debtors or with any other party to or person liable on any of the Obligations, or interested therein, for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release thereof, in whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms thereof or of any agreement between Laurus and any or all of the Debtors or any such other party or person, or make any election of rights Laurus may deem desirable under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended, the BIA, the CCAA, or any other federal, provincial or state bankruptcy, reorganization, moratorium or insolvency law relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally (any of the foregoing, an “Insolvency Law”) without in any way impairing or affecting this Amended and Restated Guaranty.

2.

Guaranty Absolute. Each of the undersigned jointly and severally guarantees that the Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the 2005 Documents and 2006 Documents and/or any other document, instrument or agreement creating or evidencing the Obligations, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Debtors with respect thereto. Guarantors hereby knowingly accept the full range of risk encompassed within a contract of “continuing guaranty” which risk includes the possibility that the Debtors will contract additional indebtedness for which Guarantors may be liable hereunder after the Debtors’ financial condition or ability to pay their lawful debts when they fall due has deteriorated, whether or not the Debtors have properly authorized incurring such additional indebtedness. The undersigned acknowledge that (i) no oral representations, including any representations to extend credit or provide other financial accommodations to the Debtors, have been made by Laurus to induce the undersigned to enter into this Amended and Restated Guaranty and (ii) any extension of credit to the Debtors shall be governed solely by the provisions of the 2005 Documents and 2006 Documents. The liability of each of the undersigned under this Amended and Restated Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional, in accordance with its terms, and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including, without limitation: (a) any waiver, indulgence, renewal, extension, amendment or modification of or addition, consent or supplement to or deletion from or any other action or inaction under or in respect of the 2005 Documents and 2006 Documents or any other instruments or agreements relating to the Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any thereof, (b) any lack of validity or enforceability of any 2005 Document and/or 2006 Document or other documents, instruments or agreements relating to the Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any thereof, (c) any furnishing of any additional security to Laurus or its assignees or any acceptance thereof or any release of any security by Laurus or its assignees, (d) any limitation on any party’s liability or obligation under the 2005 Documents and/or 2006 Documents or any other documents, instruments or agreements relating to the Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any thereof or any invalidity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any such document, instrument or agreement or any term thereof, (e) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to the Debtors, or any action taken with respect to this Amended and Restated Guaranty by any trustee, receiver, interim receiver, or receiver and manager, or by any court, in any such proceeding, whether or not the undersigned shall have notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing, (f) any exchange, release or nonperfection of any collateral, or any release, or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty or security, for all or any of the Obligations or (g) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the undersigned. Any amounts due from the undersigned to Laurus shall bear interest until such amounts are paid in full at the highest rate then applicable to the Obligations. Obligations include post-petition interest whether or not allowed or allowable.

 

3.

Waivers.

 

(a)  This Amended and Restated Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Laurus shall be under no obligation to institute suit, exercise rights or remedies or take any other action against any of the Debtors or any other person liable with respect to any of the Obligations or resort to any collateral security held by it to secure any of the Obligations as a condition precedent to the undersigned being obligated to perform as agreed herein and each of the Guarantors hereby waives any and all rights which it may have by statute or otherwise which would require Laurus to do any of the foregoing. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the Obligations and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce this Amended and Restated Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against the Debtors or whether any of the Debtors are joined in any such action or actions. Each of the Guarantors further consents and agrees that Laurus shall be under no obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Guarantors, or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. The undersigned hereby waives all suretyship defenses and any rights to interpose any defense, counterclaim or offset of any nature and description which the undersigned may have or which may exist between and among Laurus, the Debtors and/or the undersigned with respect to the undersigned’s obligations under this Amended and Restated Guaranty, or which the Debtors may assert on the underlying debt, including but not limited to failure of consideration, breach of warranty, fraud, payment (other than cash payment in full of the Obligations), statute of frauds, bankruptcy, infancy, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction, and usury.

 

(b)  Each of the undersigned further waives (i) notice of the acceptance of this Amended and Restated Guaranty, of the making of any such loans or extensions of credit, and of all notices and demands of any kind to which the undersigned may be entitled, including, without limitation, notice of adverse change in any of the Debtor’s financial condition or of any other fact which might materially increase the risk of the undersigned and (ii) presentment to or demand of payment from anyone whomsoever liable upon any of the Obligations, protest, notices of presentment, non-payment or protest and notice of any sale of collateral security or any default of any sort.

 

(c)  Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the undersigned hereunder, or any setoff or application of funds of the undersigned by Laurus, the undersigned shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of Laurus against any of the Debtors or against any collateral or guarantee or right of offset held by Laurus for the payment of the Obligations, nor shall the undersigned seek or be entitled to seek any contribution, indemnification or reimbursement from any of the Debtors in respect of payments made by the undersigned hereunder, until all amounts owing to Laurus by the Debtors on account of the Obligations are paid in full and Laurus’ obligation to extend credit pursuant to the 2005 Documents and 2006 Documents have been terminated. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any amount shall be paid to the undersigned on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full and Laurus’ obligation to extend credit pursuant to the 2005 Documents and 2006 Documents shall not have been terminated, such amount shall be held by the undersigned in trust for Laurus, segregated from other funds of the undersigned, and shall forthwith upon, and in any event within two (2) business days of, receipt by the undersigned, be turned over to Laurus in the exact form received by the undersigned (duly endorsed by the undersigned to Laurus, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as Laurus may determine, subject to the provisions of the 2005 Documents and 2006 Documents. Any and all present and future debts and obligations of the Debtors to any of the undersigned are hereby waived and postponed in favor of, and subordinated to the full payment and performance of, all present and future debts and Obligations of the Debtors to Laurus.

 

4.	Indemnity. As an original and independent obligation under this Amended and Restated Guaranty each Guarantor shall:

 

 

(a)  indemnify Laurus and keep Laurus indemnified against any cost, loss, expense or liability of whatever kind resulting from the failure by any of the Debtors to make due and punctual payment of any of the Obligations or resulting from any of the Obligations being or becoming void, voidable, unenforceable or ineffective against the Debtors (including, but without limitation, all legal and other costs, charges and expenses incurred by Laurus, in connection with preserving or enforcing, or attempting to preserve or enforce, its rights under this Amended and Restated Guaranty); and

 

(b)  pay on demand the amount of such cost, loss, expense or liability whether or not Laurus has attempted to enforce any rights against any of the Debtors or any other person or otherwise.

 

5.

Security.

6.

Representations and Warranties. Each of the undersigned respectively, hereby jointly and severally represents and warrants (all of which representations and warranties shall survive until all Obligations are indefeasibly satisfied in full and the 2005 Documents and 2006 Documents have been irrevocably terminated), that:

25.

Limitation of Obligations under this Amended and Restated Guaranty.

If, notwithstanding the intent of the parties that the terms of this Amended and Restated Guaranty shall control in any and all circumstances, any such waivers or consents are determined to be unenforceable under applicable law, such waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent permitted by law.

 

27.	Remedies Not Exclusive. The remedies conferred upon Laurus in this Amended and Restated Guaranty are intended to be in addition to, and not in limitation of any other remedy or remedies available to Laurus under applicable law or otherwise.

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amended and Restated Guaranty has been executed by the undersigned this 13th day of February, 2006.
