In consideration of any credit or other financial accommodation that Lender has extended or in the future extends to Borrower, Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably guarantees prompt payment when due and at all times in the future of (1) any and all Lender Indebtedness, and (2) any and all renewals, extensions, replacements, and modifications of and all interest accrued on the Lender Indebtedness (collectively, the "Guaranteed Indebtedness"); provided, however, that the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall not include Excluded Swap Obligations.

2.        Limited Liability. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of Guarantor under Section 1 above is limited only to the terms and conditions of the Deposit Account Control Agreement by and between Guarantor and Lender dated the same day as this Limited Guaranty.

3.        Expenses. Guarantor shall reimburse Lender for all costs, reasonable attorney fees, and other expenses that Lender at any time expends or incurs in collecting or attempting to collect the Guaranteed Indebtedness or in enforcing this Guaranty or realizing upon any security for this Guaranty. Guarantor's obligations to reimburse Lender for such costs, fees and other expenses shall not be limited by Section 2 above.

4.        Unconditional. The effectiveness of this Guaranty is not subject to the satisfaction of any conditions, including, without limitation, the signing of this or another guaranty, or the granting of any other security, by any other Person.

6.       Rights Against Borrower. Guarantor shall not exercise or enforce, and waives, any right of contribution, reimbursement, recourse, recoupment, or subrogation that is available to Guarantor against Borrower or any other Person liable for payment of all or part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or as to any security for all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness is paid in full and discharged.

11.     Termination or Revocation. This Guaranty shall continue in effect until 10 days after receipt by Lender of written notice of its termination or revocation. A notice of termination or revocation shall be effective only as to the Guarantor that gives the notice, and this Guaranty shall continue in effect for each Guarantor that does not give such notice.

12.     No Impairment of Guaranty. The validity and enforceability of this Guaranty shall not be impaired or affected by any of the following (whether occurring before or after the effective date of a receipt by Lender of notice of termination or revocation of this Guaranty) with respect to all or part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Indebtedness or with respect to any present or future guaranty or other security for all or part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness: (1) any extension, modification, renewal, indulgence, or substitution; (2) any failure or omission to enforce any right, power, or remedy; (3) any waiver of any right, power, or remedy or of any default; (4) any release, surrender, compromise, settlement, subordination, or modification, with or without consideration, except in connection with a payment in full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (5) the unenforceability or invalidity of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or any such agreement, guaranty, or security; (6) any failure by Lender to perfect or secure any priority of its rights with respect to any security; or (7) any consent by Lender to any sale or transfer of any security; all whether or not Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any act, omission, or circumstance referred to in this Section.

13.     Enforceability. If any one or more provisions of this Guaranty are invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained in this Guaranty shall not in any way be affected, impaired, prejudiced, or disturbed. If at any time any portion of the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable, or avoidable, the remaining portion of the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not in any way be affected, impaired, prejudiced, or disturbed and shall remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. If at any time all or any portion of the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty would otherwise be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable, or avoidable under Section 548 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or under a similar applicable law of any jurisdiction, then notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty to the contrary, that obligation or portion thereof of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not exceed (a) the maximum amount that Guarantor could incur under this Guaranty without rendering this Guaranty void or unenforceable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer, or the like after taking into account the probability of Guarantor making any payment pursuant to this Guaranty, the amount of such probable payment, and all consideration and value directly or indirectly received by Guarantor from Lender or Borrower as a result of Lender making loans and other financial accommodations to Borrower, now or in the future, minus (b) one dollar. If Guarantor claims that Guarantor's liability under the Guaranty is subject to the foregoing limitation, Guarantor agrees that Guarantor has the burden of proof as to all matters pertaining to that limitation in light of the fact that Guarantor has possession of all the financial information needed to determine the amount of such limitation.

14.     Independence of Obligations. The liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty is independent of any other guaranties or obligations that are at any time in effect with respect to all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness and may be enforced regardless of the existence, validity, enforcement, or nonenforcement of any other guaranties or other obligations. Lender is authorized to release or modify the obligations of or surrender any security given by or waive any rights against any other Guarantor, without in any manner affecting or impairing the liability of Guarantor.

15.     Return of Payments. If any payment that Lender applies to the Guaranteed Indebtedness is set aside, recovered, rescinded, or required to be returned for any reason (including, without limitation, the bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization of Borrower, any other Guarantor, or any other Person liable in respect of any Guaranteed Indebtedness), the Guaranteed Indebtedness to which the payment was applied shall for the purposes of this Guaranty be deemed to have continued in existence, notwithstanding the application, and this Guaranty shall be enforceable as to such Guaranteed Indebtedness as fully as if Lender had not made the application.

16.     Applicable Law, Venue, Jurisdiction. This Guaranty shall be governed by and interpreted according to the laws of the State of Michigan, without giving effect to principles of conflict of laws. Guarantor irrevocably agrees and consents that any action against Guarantor for collection or enforcement of this Guaranty may be brought in any state or federal court that has subject matter jurisdiction and is located in, or whose district includes, Ottawa County, Michigan, and that any such court shall have personal jurisdiction over Guarantor for purposes of the action. Guarantor waives any objection that any such court is not a convenient forum.

17.     Capitalized Terms; Complete Agreement. Capitalized terms that are not otherwise defined in this Guaranty shall have the same meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement, which Guarantor acknowledges having received (or received the opportunity to do so), all of which defined terms are incorporated by reference into this Guaranty. This Guaranty contains the entire agreement between Guarantor and Lender with respect to the subject matter of this Guaranty. There are not any promises, terms, conditions, or obligations other than those contained in this Guaranty. This Guaranty may not be modified except by a writing signed by the party to be charged.

18.     Notices. Any notice or other communication that this Guaranty requires or permits shall be in writing and shall be served either personally or sent by certified United States mail, with postage fully prepaid, or by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to Guarantor at its address set forth below its signature, and to Lender at its address set forth on Page 1 of this Guaranty, or to any other place that a party designates by like written notice served upon the other party(ies). Notice shall be effective upon receipt, if personally delivered, two Banking Days after mailing, if sent by mail, or one Banking Day after deposit with a courier service, if sent by courier service. Notice to any Guarantor shall constitute notice to each Guarantor.

19.     Binding Effect. This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon Lender, Guarantor, and their respective heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns. Each Guarantor shall be jointly and severally liable under this Guaranty, and "Guarantor" means each, all, and any Person signing below as a "guarantor."

20.     Mutual Benefit. Guarantor is affiliated with Borrower and will derive substantial direct and indirect benefits from the extensions of credit by Lender to Borrower. Accordingly, this Guaranty is necessary and convenient to the conduct, promotion, and attainment of the business of Borrower and is in furtherance of the business objectives of Guarantor.

21.     Waiver of Jury Trial. GUARANTOR AND LENDER (BY THE ACCEPTANCE OF THIS GUARANTY) EACH IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIM, THAT IS BASED UPON OR ARISES OUT OF, OR RELATES TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY RELATED INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIM THAT IS BASED UPON, ARISES OUT OF, OR RELATES TO ANY ACTION OR INACTION OF LENDER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS GUARANTY OR THE RELATED INSTRUMENT OR AGREEMENT.
