However, if the surety is liable upon only a portion of an obligation and the principal provides partial satisfaction of the obligation, the principal may designate the portion of the obligation that is to be satisfied; and (b) For purposes of this section and Section 2819, an agreement by a creditor to accept from the principal debtor a sum less than the balance owed on the original obligation, without the prior consent of the surety and without any other change to the underlying agreement between the creditor and principal debtor, shall not exonerate the surety for the lesser sum agreed upon by the creditor and principal debtor.” |

The USA Patriot Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-56) and federal regulations issued with respect thereto require all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies individuals or business entities which open an “account” with such financial institution.

1. | INTEGRATION; INTERPRETATION.

1. | JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY. The liability of all persons and entities obligated in any manner under this Agreement and any of the Loan Documents shall be joint and several. |
1. | SPE CIAL REPRESENTATIONS, COVENANTS AND WAIVERS. |
(a) | The parties hereto recognize and acknowledge that a Borrower may from time to time have advanced to it under the Loan an aggregate principal amount in excess of the borrowing that would otherwise be supported by Collateral owned by such Borrower and encumbered under a Deed of Trust. The Loan has been established in the manner provided herein (and with the possi ble result referred to in the foregoing sentence) at the express request of, and to accommodate the administrative and operational requirements of, the Borrowers and Guarantor. Specifically, the Loan might have been established to provide a limit on direct borrowings by each Borrower consistent with the specific borrowing base limitations imposed by Collateral owned by such Borrower, with additional credit needs of such Borrower in excess thereof being accommodated by inter-company loans from Borrower(s) with excess borrowing capacity to such other Borrower requiring additional funds. However, for administrative and operational reasons imposed by the Borrowers and Guarantor, as aforesaid, the Loan has been established as provided herein, but with the intention, as confirmed in subsection (b) below, that the Borrowers ultimately share, among themselves, repayment obligations under the Loan to the same extent as if such borrowings had been made under the alternative disbursement procedure described in the pr eceding sentence. |
(b) | Without limiting the joint and several liability of each Borrower to the Lender under this Agreement, the Note and other Loan Documents, each Borrower hereby severally covenants and commits to indemnify and hold harmless each other Borrower from and against any liability (in the form of indebtedness repaid to the Lender under the Loan, including foreclosure under any Deed of Trust) incurred by such other Borrower to the Lender under or pursuant to this Agreement or the Note in respect of such indebtedness incurred by the indemnifying Borrower. The effect of the foregoing shall be that, as between the Borrowers, each shall be responsible to reimburse the other Borrower to the end that each Borrower hereunder ultimately bears the burden of payment of its respective share of indebtedness incurred under and pursuant to the Loan. |
(c) | In connection with its joint and several obligations under the Loan Document s, each Borrower waives: (i) any defense based upon any legal disability or other defense of any other Borrower, or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of any other Borrower from any cause other than full payment of all sums payable under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) any defense based upon any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any Borrower or any principal thereof or any defect in the formation of any Borrower or any such principal; (iii) any defense based upon the application by any Borrower of the proceeds of the Loan for purposes other than the purposes permitted under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (iv) any and all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Lenders, even though that election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for any Property, has destroyed all rights of any party to a deficiency judgment against the owne r of such Property of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise, and, as a consequence, will destroy all rights which any Borrower would otherwise have (including, without limitation, the right of subrogation, the right of reimbursement, and the right of contribution) to proceed against such other Borrower; (v) any defense based upon Lender's failure to disclose any information concerning any other Borrower's financial condition or any other circumstances bearing on any other Borrower's ability to pay all sums payable under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents; (vi) 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 respects ore burdensome than that of a principal; (vii) any defense based upon the Lender's election, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute; (viii) any defense based upon, any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; (ix) any right of subrogation, any right |
23
Loan 1003622
to enforce any remedy which the Lenders may have against any other Borrower and any right to participate in, or benefit from, any security for the Note or the other Loan Documents now or hereafter held by Lender; and (x) the benefit of any statute of limitations affec ting the liability of each Borrower or the enforcement hereof. Each Borrower agrees that the payment of all sums payable under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents or any part thereof or other act which tolls any statute of limitations applicable to the Note or other Loan Documents shall similarly operate to toll the statute of limitations applicable to each Borrower's liability hereunder. Without limiting the generality, of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, each Borrower expressly waives to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses which might otherwise be available to it under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433 and under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, or any of such sections. Lender may (A) apply security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lender in its sole discretion may determine; (B) release, substitute or add any one or more endorsers of the Note or guarantors of Borrower s' obligations under the Note or the other Loan Documents; and (C) apply payments received by Lender from Borrowers to any obligations of Borrowers to the Lender, in such order as the Lender shall determine in its sole discretion. If all or any portion of the obligations of any Borrower are paid or performed, the obligations of each other Borrower hereunder shall continue and shall remain in full force and effect in the event that all or any part of such payment or performance is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from the Lender as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise under the Bankruptcy Code or other similar laws, irrespective of full payment and performance of all of the indebtedness and obligations evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents.
(d) | Each Borrower acknowledges that: (a) the obligations under the Loan Documents are complex in nature, (b) numerous possible defenses to the enforceability of these obligations may presently exist and/or may arise hereafter, and (c) as part of the Lender's consideration for entering into these transactions, Lender has specifically bargained for the waiver and relinquishment by each Borrower of all such defenses, and each Borrower has had the opportunity to seek and receive legal advice from skilled legal counsel in the area of financial transactions of the type contemplated herein. Given all of the above, each Borrower does hereby represent and confirm to Lender that each Borrower is fully informed regarding, and thor oughly understands: (i) the nature of all such possible defenses, (ii) the circumstances under which such defenses may arise, (iii) the benefits which such defenses might confer upon Borrower, and (iv) the legal consequences to Borrower of waiving such defenses. Each Borrower acknowledges that all of the informed waivers herein shall be fully enforceable by Lender, and that Lender is induced to enter into this transaction in material reliance upon the presumed full enforceability thereof. |
(e) | Without limiting subsection (c) or (d) above, each Borrower hereby specifically waives presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind and without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any provision of subsection (c) above, each Borrower further expressly waives to the extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses, including, without limitation, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution, which might otherwise be available to such Borrower under California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, 2899 and 3433, or under California Code of Civil Procedure Sections 580a, 580b, 580d and 726, or any such sections. |
(f) | Without limiting the joint and several liability of the Guarantor to the Lender under the Guaranty, Guarantor, by execution of the Guaranty, jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold each Borrower harmless from and against any liability (in the form of indebtedness repaid to Lender under the Loan, including foreclosure under any Deed of Trust) incurred by such Borrower to the Lenders under or pursuant to the Loan in respect of indebtedness incurred by other Borrowers. |
1. | COUNTERPARTS. To facilitate execution, this document may be executed in as many counterparts as may be convenient or required. It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single document. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this document to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto.
