1.Pursuant to the Multiparty Guaranty, certain obligations owing by the Company to the holders of Notes under the Agreement and evidenced by the Notes (together with their respective permitted transferees with respect to the Notes and other Transaction Documents, the “Beneficiaries”) are guaranteed by the Guarantors.
2.The undersigned Subsidiary of the Company (the “Additional Guarantor”) is executing this Joinder in accordance with the requirements of Section 21.7 of the Multiparty Guaranty.
3.The Additional Guarantor by its signature below becomes a Guarantor under the Multiparty Guaranty and the other provisions of the Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as a Guarantor and the Additional Guarantor hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Agreement applicable to it as a Guarantor thereunder, and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as a Guarantor set forth in Section 5 of the Agreement are true and correct on and as of the date hereof.
