If the Limited Guarantor is or becomes liable for any Indebtedness owing by the Seller to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser or the other Secured Parties by endorsement or otherwise than under this Guaranty, 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 Guaranty had not existed and such Limited Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall not be in any manner impaired or reduced thereby.

11. Cumulative Rights.

All rights of the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties hereunder or otherwise arising under the Repurchase Documents or any documents executed in connection with or as security for the Guarantee Liabilities or under Applicable Law are separate and cumulative and may be pursued separately, successively or concurrently, or not pursued, without affecting, limiting or impairing any other right of the Deal Agent, the Purchaser or the other Secured Parties and without limiting, affecting or impairing the liability of the Limited Guarantor.

13. Assignments.

(a) Assignments by Purchaser. This Guaranty is intended for and shall inure to the benefit of the Deal Agent, the Purchaser, the other Secured Parties and each and every Person who shall from time to time be or become the owner or holder of any of the Guarantee Liabilities, and each and every reference herein to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties shall include and refer to each and every successor, assignee, pledgee and participant of the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties 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 Liabilities. This Guaranty shall be transferable and negotiable by the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties with the same force and effect, and to the same extent, that the Guarantee Liabilities are transferable and negotiable, it being understood and stipulated that, upon assignment or any such transfer by the Deal Agent, the Purchaser or the other Secured Parties of any of the Guarantee Liabilities, the legal holder or owner of said Guarantee Liabilities (or a part thereof or interest therein thus transferred or assigned) shall (except as otherwise stipulated by the Deal Agent, the Purchaser or the other Secured Parties in its assignment) have and may exercise all of the rights granted to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties under this Guaranty to the extent of that part of or interest in the Guarantee Liabilities thus assigned or so transferred to said Person. The Limited Guarantor expressly waives notice of any such transfer or assignment of the Guarantee Liabilities, or any part thereof, or of the rights of the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties hereunder.

16. Bankruptcy Code Waiver.

In the event that the Seller becomes a debtor in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, the Limited Guarantor shall not be deemed to be a “creditor” (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy Code) of such Seller, by reason of the existence of this Guaranty, and in connection herewith, the Limited Guarantor hereby waives any such right as a “creditor” under the Bankruptcy Code. This waiver is given to induce the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties to enter into the transactions contemplated by the Repurchase Documents. After the Guarantee Liabilities are paid in full and there shall be no obligations or liabilities under this Guaranty outstanding, this waiver shall be deemed to be terminated.

17. The Seller’s and Pledgor’s Actions.

No encumbrance, assignment, leasing, subletting, sale or other transfer by the Seller, the Pledgor or the Parent of any of the Seller’s, the Pledgor’s or the Parent’ assets or Property shall operate to extinguish or diminish the liability of the Limited Guarantor under this Guaranty.

18. Subordination.

(a) As used in this Guaranty, the term “Limited Guarantor Claims” shall mean all debts, liabilities and other Indebtedness of the Seller, the Pledgor, the Parent, any other Repurchase Party or any other Person obligated to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser, the other Secured Parties or any other Person specified under any Repurchase Document to the Limited Guarantor, whether such debts, liabilities and other Indebtedness now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligations of such Seller, Pledgor, the Parent, any other Repurchase 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 the Limited Guarantor. The Limited Guarantor Claims shall include, without limitation, all rights and claims of the Limited Guarantor against the Seller, the Pledgor, the Parent, other Repurchase Parties or other Persons (arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise) as a result of the Limited Guarantor’s payment of all or a portion of the Guarantee Liabilities. All Limited Guarantor Claims are and shall be subordinate to the Guarantee Liabilities.

(b) In the event of any Insolvency Proceedings involving the Limited Guarantor as debtor, the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties 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 Limited Guarantor Claims to the extent of any sums owed by the Limited Guarantor hereunder. The Limited Guarantor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties. Should the Deal Agent, the Purchaser or the other Secured Parties receive, for application upon the Guarantee Liabilities, any such dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to the Limited Guarantor, and which, as between the Seller or any other Person described in clause (a) above on the one hand and the Limited Guarantor on the other, shall constitute a credit upon the Limited Guarantor Claims, then upon payment to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties in full of the Guarantee Liabilities, the Limited Guarantor shall become subrogated to the rights of the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties to the extent that such payments to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties on the Limited Guarantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Guarantee Liabilities, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Guarantee Liabilities which would have been unpaid if the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties had not received dividends or payments upon the Limited Guarantor Claims.

(c) In the event that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guaranty, the Limited Guarantor should receive any funds, payment, claim or distribution which is prohibited by this Guaranty, the Limited Guarantor agrees to hold in trust for the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties 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 except to pay them promptly to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties, and the Limited Guarantor covenants promptly to pay the same to the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties.

(d) The Limited Guarantor agrees that any claims, charges or Liens against the Seller, the Pledgor, the Parent, other Repurchase Parties or any other Persons described under clause (a) above and/or such Seller’s, the Pledgor’s, the Parent’s, any other Repurchase Party’s or such other Person’s assets and Property with respect to the Limited Guarantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any claims, charges or Liens of the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties against the Seller, the Pledgor, the Parent, any other Repurchase Party or any such other Person and/or such Seller’s, such Pledgor’s, such Parent’s, any such other Repurchase Party’s or such other Person’s assets and Property, regardless of whether such claims, charges or Liens in favor of the Limited Guarantor or the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties presently exist or are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior written consent of the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties, the Limited Guarantor shall not (i) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against the Seller, the Pledgor, the Parent, any other Repurchase 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 Seller, the Pledgor, the Parent, any other Repurchase Party or such other Person or the assets or Property of the Seller, the Pledgor, the Parent, any other Repurchase Party or such other Person held by the Limited Guarantor.

20. Books and Records.

In addition to any additional rights under the Repurchase Agreement and the other Repurchase Documents, the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties shall have the right at the Limited Guarantor’s cost, and the Limited Guarantor shall permit and shall cooperate with the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties in arranging for, at any reasonable time from time to time, the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties and/or its representatives, to review and audit all books, records and financial statements (including all supporting data and other records) of the Limited Guarantor, and the Limited Guarantor shall make all such books of account and records available for such examination, at the office where the same are regularly maintained. The Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties shall have a right to copy, duplicate and make abstracts from such books and records as the Deal Agent, the Purchaser and the other Secured Parties may require.
