This Guaranty is a present and continuing guaranty of payment and not of collectability, and the Lender shall not be required to prosecute collection, enforcement or other remedies against the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Payment Obligations, or to enforce or resort to any collateral for the repayment of the Payment Obligations or other rights or remedies pertaining thereto, before calling on the Guarantor for payment.

2. Representations and Warranties. The following shall constitute representations and warranties of the Guarantor, and the Guarantor hereby acknowledges that the Lender intends to make the Loan in reliance thereon:

(a) Guarantor is not in default, and, to Guarantor’s actual knowledge, no event has occurred which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice, would constitute a default, under any agreement to which the Guarantor is a party, the effect of which will materially impair performance by the Guarantor of its obligations under this Guaranty. Neither the execution and delivery of this Guaranty nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof will violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, decree or order, or will conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of any indenture, deed of trust, instrument, document, agreement or contract of any kind that creates, represents, evidences or provides for any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the Guarantor, or any other indenture, deed of trust, instrument, document, agreement or contract of any kind to which the Guarantor is a party or, to Guarantor’s actual knowledge, to which the Guarantor or the property of the Guarantor may be subject.

(b) There is not any litigation, arbitration, governmental or administrative proceedings, actions, examinations, claims or demands pending, or to the knowledge of the Guarantor, threatened that could, if determined adversely to Guarantor, materially adversely affect performance by the Guarantor of its obligations under this Guaranty.

(c) Neither this Guaranty nor any statement or certification as to facts previously furnished or required herein to be furnished to the Lender by the Guarantor, contains any material inaccuracy or untruth in any representation, covenant or warranty or omits to state a fact material to this Guaranty.

3. Continuing Guaranty.

(d) any failure, omission or delay on the part of the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Obligations or the Lender to conform or comply with any term of any of the Loan Documents or any failure of the Lender to give notice of any Event of Default (as defined in the Note);

(e) any waiver, compromise, release, settlement or extension of time of payment or performance or observance of any of the obligations or agreements contained in any of the Loan Documents;

(f) any action or inaction by the Lender (other than any illegal action or omission) under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents, any failure, lack of diligence, omission or delay on the part of the Lender to perfect, enforce, assert or exercise any lien, security interest, right, power or remedy conferred on it in any of the Loan Documents, or any other action or inaction on the part of the Lender;

(g) any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, assignment for the benefit of creditors, composition, receivership, liquidation, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar events or proceedings with respect to the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Obligations, as applicable, or any of their respective property or creditors, or any action taken by any trustee or receiver or by any court in any such proceeding;

(k) any other occurrence, circumstance, happening or event, whether similar or dissimilar to the foregoing and whether foreseen or unforeseen, which otherwise might constitute a legal or equitable defense or discharge of the liabilities of a guarantor or surety or which otherwise might limit recourse against the Borrower or the Guarantor to the fullest extent permitted by law.

4. Waivers. The Guarantor expressly and unconditionally waives (i) notice of any of the matters referred to in Section 3 above, (ii) all notices which may be required by statute, rule of law or otherwise, now or hereafter in effect, to preserve intact any rights against the Guarantor, including, without limitation, any demand, presentment and protest, default, intent to accelerate maturity, acceleration of maturity, proof of notice of non-payment under any of the Loan Documents and notice of any Event of Default or any failure on the part of the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Obligations to perform or comply with any covenant, agreement, term or condition of any of the Loan Documents, (iii) any right to the enforcement, assertion or exercise against the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Obligations of any right or remedy conferred under any of the Loan Documents, (iv) any requirement of diligence on the part of any person or entity, (v) any requirement on the part of the Lender to exhaust any remedies or to mitigate the damages resulting from any default under any of the Loan Documents, and (vi) any notice of any sale, transfer or other disposition of any right, title or interest of the Lender under any of the Loan Documents.

5. Subordination. The Guarantor agrees that any and all present and future debts and obligations of the Borrower to the Guarantor are hereby subordinated to the claims of the Lender and are hereby assigned by the Guarantor to the Lender as security for the Obligations and the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, until the Obligations are paid in full.

7. Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or automatically be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any of the Obligations or the Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty is rescinded or otherwise must be restored or returned by the Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Guarantor or the Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

8. Financial Statements. The Guarantor represents and warrants to the Lender that (a) the financial statements of the Guarantor previously submitted to the Lender are true, complete and correct in all material respects, disclose all actual and contingent liabilities, and fairly present the financial condition of the Guarantor, and do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a fact material to the financial statements submitted for this Guaranty, and (b) no material adverse change has occurred in the financial statements from the dates thereof until the date hereof.

(6) All damages, expenses or costs suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of the application of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards (to the full extent of such proceeds or awards) not permitted by the Deed of Trust or the failure of Borrower to maintain the insurance coverages required by the Deed of Trust;

(8) If, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and Lender’s revocation of Borrower’s license to retain such amounts, all security deposits provided for in any leases for any part of the Premises (together with interest thereon to the extent that interest is payable under such leases) which are not used in the ordinary course of business to cure defaults by tenants depositing the same, returned to tenants in accordance with the terms of their leases or paid over to Lender and all lease termination fees payable for terminating any such leases which are not paid jointly to Borrower and Lender or otherwise applied as provided in the Loan Documents.

22. Waiver of Certain Statutory Provisions. Guarantor agrees that Guarantor shall not be considered a “Debtor” as defined in Section 9.105 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code or Section 51.002 of the Texas Property Code. Guarantor hereby waives all rights to which Guarantor may be or might otherwise become entitled to with respect to the provisions of Sections 34.02 and 34.03 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code, as amended, and agrees that the rights of Guarantor pursuant to the provisions of Section 34.04 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code, as amended, shall be subject to, secondary, subordinate and inferior in all respects to the rights of Lender pursuant to this Guaranty.
