15.            Binding Effect; Assignment. This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of the Landlord and its heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns. This Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantor and its heirs, personal representatives, successors, and assigns.  This Guaranty will follow the Lease and, in the event the Lease is transferred, assigned or conveyed by Landlord, then this Guaranty will be deemed to have been transferred, assigned or conveyed by Landlord together therewith with respect to the obligations contained therein, and such party or parties may enforce this Guaranty in accordance with its terms as if such party or parties had been originally named Landlord hereunder.  The Guarantor may not assign this Guaranty without the prior written consent of Landlord, which consent may be withheld, conditioned or delayed in Landlord’s sole discretion.
