WHEREAS, Guarantor will derive a specific benefit from the Purchase Agreement and desires to guarantee the payment of: (i) any and all amounts owed by BRI under the Note; and (ii) the Deferred Payments (collectively, the Obligations);
NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby guarantees to Martin the payment of all Obligations, on the following terms:
1. Continuing Guaranty.

1
(d) any defense arising by reason of any failure of Martin to obtain, perfect, maintain or keep in force any security interest in, or lien or encumbrance upon, any property of BRI or any other person;
(e) any defense based upon any failure of Martin to give Guarantor notice of any sale or other disposition of any property securing any or all of the Obligations, or any defects in any such notice that may be given, or any failure of Martin to comply with any provision of applicable law in enforcing any security interest in or lien upon any property securing any or all of the Obligations including, but not limited to, any failure by Martin to dispose of any property securing any or all of the Obligations in a commercially reasonable manner;
(f) any defense based upon or arising out of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment of debt, liquidation or dissolution proceeding commenced by or against BRI or any other guarantor or any endorser, co-maker or other person, including without limitation any discharge of, or bar against collecting, any of the Obligations (including without limitation any interest thereon), in or as a result of any such proceeding; and

If any claim is ever made upon Martin for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received by Martin in payment of or on account of any of the Obligations, because of any claim that any such payment constituted a preferential transfer or fraudulent conveyance, or for any other reason whatsoever, and Martin repays all or part of said amount by reason of any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over Martin or any of its property, or by reason of any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by Martin with any such claimant (including without limitation BRI), then and in any such event, Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement and compromise shall be binding upon Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation or release of this Guaranty or the cancellation of any note or other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations, or any release of any of the Obligations, and the Guarantor shall be and remain liable to Martin under this Guaranty for the amount so repaid or recovered, to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by Martin, and the provisions of this sentence shall survive, and continue in effect, notwithstanding any revocation or release of this Guaranty.
3. Consents.

5. Costs. Whether or not suit be instituted, Guarantor agrees to reimburse Martin on demand for all reasonable attorneys fees and all other reasonable costs and expenses incurred by Martin in enforcing this Guaranty, or arising out of or relating in any way to this Guaranty.

8. General Provisions. Martin shall have the right to seek recourse against Guarantor to the full extent provided for herein and in any other instrument or agreement evidencing obligations of Guarantor to Martin, and against BRI to the full extent of the Obligations. No election in one
3
form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of Martins right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against any other party. The failure of Martin to enforce any of the provisions of this Guaranty at any time or for any period of time shall not be construed to be a waiver of any such provision or the right thereafter to enforce the same.

Time is of the essence in the performance by Guarantor of each and every obligation under this Guaranty. This Guaranty is the entire and only agreement between Guarantor and Martin with respect to the guaranty of the Obligations of BRI by Guarantor, and all representations, warranties, agreements, or undertakings heretofore or contemporaneously made, which are not set forth herein, are superseded hereby. No course of dealings between the parties, no usage of the trade, and no parol or extrinsic evidence of any nature shall be used or be relevant to supplement or explain or modify any term or provision of this Guaranty. There are no conditions to the full effectiveness of this Guaranty. The terms and provisions hereof may not be waived, altered, modified, or amended except in a writing executed by Guarantor and a duly authorized officer of Martin. All rights, benefits and privileges hereunder shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Martin and its successors and assigns and shall be binding upon Guarantor and his heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, successors and assigns. Neither the bankruptcy of Guarantor nor notice thereof to Martin shall terminate this Guaranty, and, notwithstanding such bankruptcy, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect with respect to all Obligations, including without limitation Obligations incurred or created after the bankruptcy of Guarantor and notice thereof to Martin. Section headings are used herein for convenience only. Guarantor acknowledges that the same may not describe completely the subject matter of the applicable Section, and the same shall not be used in any manner to construe, limit, define or interpret any term or provision hereof.
