Until the final payment in full in cash of the Guarantied Obligations, Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty shall be continuing and irrevocable, irrespective of:

(ii) any release, amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent to departure from, any of the Guarantied Obligations, including without limitation extensions (including extensions beyond and after the original term) of payment or performance dates; or
