All references to “day” or “days” mean calendar days.

(b)    No provision of this Guaranty will be interpreted in favor of, or against, either Party by reason of the extent to which (1) such Party or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof, or (2) such provision is inconsistent with any prior draft of this Guaranty or such provision.

Section 2.1    Guaranty Obligations. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the prompt performance by MNL, Numonyx B.V. and MTAP of their respective obligations under the Joint Venture Agreement (the “Guaranty Obligations”).

Section 2.2    Nature of Guaranty. Insofar as the payment by MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP of any sums of money to Inotera or Beneficiary is involved, this Guaranty is a guarantee of payment and not of collection. Should Inotera or Beneficiary be obligated by any bankruptcy or other Applicable Law to repay to Guarantor, MNL, Numonyx B.V., MTAP or any trustee, receiver or other representative of any of them, any amounts previously paid, this Guaranty will be reinstated to the amount of such repayments.

Section 2.3    Independent Obligations. Except as specifically provided for in this Guaranty, the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the obligations of MNL, Numonyx B.V. and MTAP under the Joint Venture Agreement. Upon any default by MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP in the performance of the Guaranty Obligations, Beneficiary may immediately proceed against Guarantor hereunder without bringing action against or joining MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP.

Section 2.4    Defenses to Enforcement. It will not be a defense to the enforcement of this Guaranty that the execution and delivery of the Joint Venture Agreement by MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP was unauthorized or otherwise invalid, or that any of the obligations of MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP thereunder are otherwise unenforceable. Guarantor intends this Guaranty to apply in respect of the obligations of MNL, Numonyx B.V. and MTAP that would arise under the Joint Venture Agreement if all of the provisions thereof were enforceable against MNL, Numonyx B.V. and MTAP in accordance with their terms.

Section 2.5    Action with Respect to the Guaranty Obligations. Guarantor agrees that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and irrevocable under the circumstances set forth in the Joint Venture Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Guaranty, and will not be impaired, released, terminated, discharged or otherwise affected except by performance thereof in full. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such obligations of Guarantor will not be affected by any of the following:

(a)    any modification or amendment of, or addition or supplement to, the Joint Venture Agreement agreed to in writing by Guarantor or MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP unless also agreed to in writing by Beneficiary;

(b)    any exercise or non-exercise of any right, power or remedy under, or in respect of, the Joint Venture Agreement;

(c)    any waiver, consent, release, extension, indulgence or other action, inaction or omission under, or in respect of, the Joint Venture Agreement, unless also agreed to in writing by Beneficiary;

(d)    any insolvency, bankruptcy or similar proceeding involving or affecting MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP or any liquidation or dissolution of MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP; or

(e)    any failure of MNL, Numonyx B.V. and MTAP to comply with any of the terms or conditions of the Joint Venture Agreement.

Section 2.6    Delays; Waivers. No delay by Beneficiary in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty or failure to exercise the same will constitute a waiver or otherwise affect such right, power or privilege, nor will any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No notice to or demand on Guarantor will be deemed to be a waiver of (a) any obligation of MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP or (b) any right of Beneficiary to take any further action or exercise any rights under this Guaranty or the Joint Venture Agreement.

Section 2.7    Defenses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Guaranty will restrict Guarantor from raising the defense of prior payment or performance by MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP of the obligations which Guarantor may be called upon to pay or perform under this Guaranty or the defense (other than a defense referred to in Section 2.4) that there is no obligation on the part of MNL, Numonyx B.V. or MTAP with respect to the matter claimed to be in default under the Joint Venture Agreement.

Section 2.8    Representations and Warranties. Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to Beneficiary that:

(a)    Guarantor owns, directly or indirectly, all of the equity securities of MNL, Numonyx B.V. and MTAP;

(b)    Guarantor has the authority, capacity and power to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby;

(c)    this Guaranty constitutes the valid and binding obligation of Guarantor and is enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms; and

(d)    neither the execution and delivery by Guarantor of this Guaranty nor the performance by Guarantor of the transactions contemplated hereby will violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (1) any Applicable Law or other law to which either Guarantor or any of its assets is subject, or (2) any contract to which Guarantor is a party or is bound, except where such conflict, violation, default, termination, cancellation or acceleration would not materially impair the ability of Guarantor to perform its obligations under this Guaranty.

Section 3.1    Entire Agreement. This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and undertakings, written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

Section 3.2    Notices. All notices and other communications pursuant to this Guaranty shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given upon (i) transmitter's confirmation of a receipt of a facsimile transmission, (ii) confirmation of delivery by a standard overnight or recognized international carrier, or (iii) delivery in person, addressed at the following addresses (or at such other address for a party hereto as shall be specified by like notice):

Section 3.4    Waivers. The failure at any time of a Party to require performance by the other Party of any responsibility or obligation required by this Guaranty shall in no way affect a Party's right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor shall the waiver by a Party of a breach of any provision of this Guaranty by the other Party constitute a waiver of any other breach of the same or any other provision nor constitute a waiver of the responsibility or obligation itself. The rights and remedies herein provided will be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Section 3.5    Choice of Law. This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the ROC, without giving effect to its conflict of laws principles.

Section 3.6    Jurisdiction; Venue. Any suit, action or proceeding seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Guaranty shall be brought in the Taipei District Court, located in Taipei, Taiwan, and each of the Parties consents and submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Section 3.7    Counterparts. This Guaranty may be executed in two counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 3.8    Headings. The headings of the Articles and Sections in this Guaranty are provided for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof.

Section 3.9    Severability. Should any provision of this Guaranty be deemed in contradiction with the laws of any jurisdiction in which it is to be performed or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be deemed null and void, but this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect in all other respects. Should any provision of this Guaranty be or become ineffective because of changes in Applicable Law or interpretations thereof, or should this Guaranty fail to include a provision that is required as a matter of law, the validity of the other provisions of this Guaranty shall not be affected thereby. If any of such circumstances arise, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith appropriate modifications to this Guaranty to reflect those changes that are required by Applicable Law.

Section 3.10    Third Party Rights. The Joinder Parties are express third party beneficiaries under this Guaranty. Except as set forth in the prior sentence, nothing in this Guaranty, whether express or implied, is intended or shall be construed to confer, directly or indirectly, upon or give to any Person, other than the Parties, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Guaranty or any covenant, condition or other provision contained herein.
