GUARANTOR WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING BASED UPON OR RELATED TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS. THIS WAIVER IS KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY MADE BY GUARANTOR AND GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES THAT NEITHER LENDER NOR ANY PERSON ACTING ON BEHALF OF LENDER HAS OR HAVE MADE

ANY REPRESENTATIONS OF FACT TO INDUCE THIS WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY OR IN ANY WAY TO MODIFY OR NULLIFY ITS EFFECT. GUARANTOR FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT GUARANTOR HAS BEEN REPRESENTED (OR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE REPRESENTED) IN THE SIGNING OF THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE MAKING OF THIS WAIVER BY INDEPENDENT LEGAL COUNSEL, SELECTED OF ITS OWN FREE WILL, AND THAT GUARANTOR HAS HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO DISCUSS THIS WAIVER WITH COUNSEL. GUARANTOR AGREES THAT THE GUARANTEED OBLIGATIONS EVIDENCED BY THIS AGREEMENT ARE EXEMPTED TRANSACTIONS UNDER THE TRUTH-IN-LENDING ACT, 156 U.S.C. SECTION 1601, ET SEQ.

21.It is the intent of Guarantor and Lender that in any Proceeding (as hereinafter defined), Guarantor's maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of Guarantor to Lender) to be avoidable or enforceable against Guarantor in such Proceeding as a result of applicable law, including without limitation, (A) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the "Bankruptcy Code") and (B) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.

Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum guaranteed obligations for which Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as of the time any of the guarantied obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of Guarantor to Lender), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions. This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of Lender hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of Guarantor to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and neither Guarantor or any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against Lender that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.

As used in this Section, the term "Proceedings" shall mean, with respect to Guarantor, a voluntary or an involuntary case or other proceeding seeking liquidation, reorganization or other relief with respect to Guarantor or its debts under any bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect or seeking the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official for Guarantor or any substantial part of its property.

23.To the fullest extent permitted by Law, Guarantor unconditionally waives and relinquishes any defense to the enforcement of this Agreement, including, without limitation:

(a)    All presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, and notices of acceptance of this Agreement;

(b)    Any right to require Lender to proceed against Borrower or any guarantor at any time or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Lender at any time or to pursue any other remedy whatsoever at any time;

(c)    The defense of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder or the liability of Borrower, or any guarantor under the Loan Documents, or the enforcement hereof, to the extent permitted by law;

(d)    Any defense arising by reason of any invalidity or unenforceability of (or any limitation of liability in) any of the Loan Documents or any disability of Borrower or any guarantor or of any manner in which Lender has exercised its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents, or any question from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower, or any guarantor;

(e)    Without limitation on clause (D) above, any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of Borrower or any principal of Borrower or any defect in the formation of Borrower or any principal of Borrower;

(f)    Any defense based upon the application by Borrower of the proceeds of the Loan for purposes other than the purposes represented by Borrower to Lender or intended or understood by Lender or Guarantor;

(g)    Any defense based upon an election of remedies by Lender, including any election to proceed by judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure of any security, whether real property or personal property security, or by deed in lieu thereof, and whether or not every aspect of any foreclosure sale is commercially reasonable, or any election of remedies, including remedies relating to real property or personal property security, which destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of Guarantor or the rights of Guarantor to proceed against Borrower or any guarantor for reimbursement, or both;

(h)    Any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in any other aspects more burdensome than that of a principal;

(i)    Any defense based upon Lender's election, in any proceeding instituted under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute;

(j)    Any defense based upon any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code;

(k)    Any duty of Lender to advise Guarantor of any information known to Lender regarding the financial condition of Borrower and all other circumstances affecting Borrower's ability to perform its obligations to Lender, it being agreed that Guarantor assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed regarding such condition or any such circumstances; and

(l)    Any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnity, or any right to enforce any remedy which Lender now has or may hereafter have against Borrower or any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by Lender.

Guarantor understands that the exercise by Lender of certain rights and remedies may affect or eliminate Guarantor's right of subrogation against Borrower or any guarantor and that Guarantor may therefore incur partially or totally nonreimbursable liability hereunder. Nevertheless, Guarantor hereby authorizes and empowers Lender, its successors, endorsees and assigns, to exercise in its or their sole discretion, any rights and remedies, or any combination thereof, which may then be available, it being the purpose and intent of Guarantor that the obligations hereunder shall be absolute, continuing, independent and unconditional under any and all circumstances. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, unless and until each and every indebtedness, liability and obligation of Borrower to Lender shall have been fully paid, performed and discharged, Guarantor hereby waives and releases and agrees that they shall not pursue any claim or other rights which Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against Borrower or any other guarantor of all or any of the obligations of Guarantor hereunder that arise from the existence or performance of Guarantor's obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification, any right to participate in any claim or remedy of Lender against Borrower or any collateral which Lender now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from Borrower, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by setoff or in any other manner, payment or security on account of such claim or other rights.

Guarantor shall not be released or discharged, either in whole or in part, by Lender's failure or delay to (A) perfect or continue the perfection of any lien or security interest in any collateral which secures the obligations of Borrower, Guarantor, or any other guarantor, or (B) protect the property covered by any such lien or security interest.

24.CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. GUARANTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK AND OF THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK AND ANY APPELLATE COURT FROM ANY OF THE FOREGOING AND WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF ANY

AND ALL PROCESS UPON IT AND CONSENTS THAT ALL SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS BE MADE BY CERTIFIED OR REGISTERED MAIL DIRECTED TO GUARANTOR AT THE ADDRESS PROVIDED FOR IN THE FIRST PARAGRAPH HEREOF AND SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE COMPLETED UPON ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF. GUARANTOR WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF ANY ACTION INSTITUTED AGAINST IT AS PROVIDED HEREIN AND AGREES NOT TO ASSERT ANY DEFENSE BASED ON LACK OF JURISDICTION OR VENUE.

25.Any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor now or hereafter existing is hereby subordinated to the Loan and the other Obligations of Borrower to Lender. Guarantor agrees that, until the Loan has been paid in full and all commitments to lend under the Loan Agreement have terminated, Guarantor will not seek, accept or retain for Guarantor's own account, any payment from Borrower on account of such subordinated debt. Any such payment received by Guarantor shall be held in trust for Lender and shall be paid over to Lender on account of the Loan without reducing, impairing or releasing the obligations of Guarantor hereunder.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Guarantor has caused this Agreement of Guaranty and Suretyship (Payment) to be duly executed as a document under seal, as of the day and year first written above, with the intent to be legally bound hereby.
