If any Guarantor is or becomes liable for any Indebtedness owing by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders by endorsement or otherwise than under this Guarantee, such liability shall not be in any manner impaired or reduced hereby but shall have all and the same force and effect it would have had if this Guarantee had not existed and such Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall not be in any manner impaired or reduced thereby, it being understood that each Guarantor’s liability hereunder is subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.

15.          Assignments.

(a)           Assignments by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders.  This Guarantee is intended for and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each and every

15

Person who shall from time to time be or become the owner or holder of any of the Guarantee Obligations, and each and every reference herein to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall include and refer to each and every successor, assignee, pledgee and participant of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the successors, assignees and participants of the foregoing at any time holding or owning any part of or interest in any part of the Guarantee Obligations.  This Guarantee shall be transferable and negotiable by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with the same force and effect, and to the same extent, that the Guarantee Obligations are transferable and negotiable, it being understood and stipulated that, upon assignment or any such transfer by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders of any of the Guarantee Obligations, the legal holder or owner of said Guarantee Obligations (or a part thereof or interest therein thus transferred or assigned) shall (except as otherwise stipulated by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in its assignment) have and may exercise all of the rights granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Guarantee to the extent of that part of or interest in the Guarantee Obligations thus assigned or so transferred to said Person.  Each Guarantor expressly waives notice of any such transfer or assignment of the Guarantee Obligations, or any part thereof, or of the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder.  Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that any action taken hereunder shall not release or discharge this Guarantee or any obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

18.          Bankruptcy Code Waiver.

In the event that a Borrower becomes a debtor in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, no Guarantor shall be deemed to be a “creditor” (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy

16

Code) of such Borrower, by reason of the existence of this Guarantee, and in connection herewith, each Guarantor hereby waives any such right as a “creditor” under the Bankruptcy Code.  This waiver is given to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents.  After the Guarantee Obligations are paid in full and there shall be no obligations or liabilities under this Guarantee outstanding, this waiver shall be deemed to be terminated.

19.          The Borrowers’ and Pledgor’s Actions.

No encumbrance, assignment, leasing, subletting, sale or other transfer by a Borrower or a Pledgor of any of the Borrowers’ or the Pledgors’ assets or Property shall operate to extinguish or diminish the liability of any Guarantor under this Guarantee.

20.          Subordination.

(a)           As used in this Guarantee, the term “Guarantor Claims” shall mean all debts, liabilities and other Indebtedness of the Borrowers, the Pledgors, any Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any other Person obligated to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders or any other Person specified under any Credit Document to a Guarantor, whether such debts, liabilities and other Indebtedness now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligations of such Borrower, Pledgor, Guarantor, other Credit Party or such other Person thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts, liabilities or other Indebtedness be evidenced by note, contract, open account or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such debts, liabilities or other Indebtedness may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by a Guarantor.  The Guarantor Claims shall include, without limitation, all rights and claims of a Guarantor against the Borrowers, the Pledgors, any other Guarantor, other Credit Parties or other Persons (arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise) as a result of a Guarantor’s payment of all or a portion of the Guarantee Obligations.  All Guarantor Claims are and shall be subordinate to the Guarantee Obligations.

(b)           In the event of any Insolvency Proceedings involving any Guarantor as debtor, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the right to prove its claim in any such proceeding so as to establish its rights hereunder and receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian dividends and any payments which would otherwise be payable upon Guarantor Claims to the extent of any sums owed by the Guarantors hereunder.  Each Guarantor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to the Administrative Agent as agent for the Lenders.  Should the Administrative Agent as agent for the Lenders receive, for application upon the Guarantee Obligations, any such dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to a Guarantor, and which, as between the Borrowers, the Pledgors, any other Guarantor or any other Person described in clause (a) above on the one hand and the applicable Guarantor on the other, shall constitute a credit upon the Guarantor Claims, then upon payment to the Administrative Agent as agent for the Lenders in full of the Guarantee Obligations, such Guarantor shall become subrogated to the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to the extent that such payments to the Administrative Agent as agent for the Lenders on the Guarantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Guarantee Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Guarantee Obligations which would have been unpaid if the Administrative Agent as agent for the Lenders had not received dividends or payments upon the Guarantor Claims.

(c)           In the event that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guarantee, any Guarantor should receive any funds, payment, claim or distribution which is prohibited by this Guarantee, such Guarantor agrees to hold in trust for the Administrative Agent as agent for the Lenders an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims or distributions so received, and agrees that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims or distributions so received

17

except to pay them promptly to the Administrative Agent as agent for the Lenders, and the Guarantor covenants promptly to pay the same to the Administrative Agent as agent for the Lenders.

(d)           Each Guarantor agrees that any claims, charges or Liens against the Borrowers, the Pledgors, any other Guarantor, other Credit Parties or any other Persons described under clause (a) above and/or such Borrower’s, such Pledgor’s, any other Guarantor’s, any other Credit Party’s or such other Person’s assets and Property with respect to the Guarantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any claims, charges or Liens of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders against the Borrowers, the Pledgors, any Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any such other Person and/or such Borrower’s, such Pledgor’s, any Guarantor’s, any such other Credit Party’s or such other Person’s assets and Property, regardless of whether such claims, charges or Liens in favor of such Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders presently exist or are hereafter created or attach.  Without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, no Guarantor shall (i) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against the Borrowers, the Pledgors, any other Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any other Person described under clause (a) above, or (ii) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including, without limitation, the commencement of, or joinder in, any Insolvency Proceeding) to enforce any claims, charges, Liens, mortgage, deeds of trust, security interests, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances against the Borrowers, the Pledgors, any other Guarantor, any other Credit Party or such other Person or the assets or Property of the Borrowers, the Pledgors, any other Guarantor, any other Credit Party or such other Person held by the applicable Guarantor.

21.          Commercial Transaction.

To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Guarantee and the Transactions evidenced by and secured by the Credit Documents, each Guarantor agrees that said Transactions are commercial and not consumer transactions.

22.          Books and Records.

If (x) one of the events described in Section 2(b) or Section 2(c) of this Guarantee occurs or (y) the Parent is no longer a public company subject to public financial disclosure requirements under United States securities laws, then, in addition to any additional rights under the Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the right at the applicable Guarantor’s cost, and each Guarantor shall permit and shall cooperate with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in arranging for, at any reasonable time from time to time, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and/or their representatives, to review and audit all books, records and financial statements (including all supporting data and other records) of such Guarantor, and each Guarantor shall make all such books of account and records available for such examination, at the office where the same are regularly maintained.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have a right to copy, duplicate and make abstracts from such books and records as the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders may require.

23.          Notices, Etc.

All notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall, unless otherwise stated herein, be in writing (including telex communication and communication by facsimile copy) and shall be governed by Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement.  The failure of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to give any notice required hereunder (if any) shall not affect the liability or obligations of the Guarantors hereunder.  Unless otherwise expressly provided in this Guarantee, reference to any notice, request, approval, consent or determination provided for, permitted or required under the terms of this

18

Guarantee with respect to the Borrowers, the Guarantors, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders means, in order for such notice, request, approval, consent or determination to be effective hereunder, such notice, request, approval or consent must be in writing.

24.          No Waiver.

The Administrative Agent shall not by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 25 hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any default or event of default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof.  No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  A waiver by the Administrative Agent of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Administrative Agent would otherwise have on any future occasion.

25.          Amendments and Waivers.

No amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of this Guarantee shall be effective unless amended in accordance with the requirements of Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement.  Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given.

26.          Severability; Integration.

Each provision of this Guarantee shall be valid, binding and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law.  In case any provision in or obligation under this Guarantee shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction (either in its entirety or as applied to any Person, fact, circumstance, action or inaction), the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction or as applied to any other Person, fact, circumstance, action or inaction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.  This Guarantee contains the final and complete integration of all prior expressions by each Guarantor hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall constitute the entire agreement of each Guarantor hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, superseding all prior oral or written understandings and there are no promises or representations by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not reflected herein.
