VALIDITY GUARANTY




 


This GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) is made on October 24, 2018 by each of the undersigned (each, a “Guarantor”) in favor of AEC YIELD CAPITAL, LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of New York (the “Purchaser”), and Purchaser’s successors and assigns, in connection with that certain Purchase and Sale Agreement, dated as of even date herewith, between Limecom, Inc., a Florida corporation (the “Seller”) and Purchaser (together with all schedules and amendments thereto, the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meaning given to such terms in the Agreement. In this Guaranty, the words, “I”, “me” and “my” mean the Guarantor (or, if there is more than one signatory to this Guaranty as Guarantor, each such Guarantor, jointly and severally). The words “you” and “your” mean Purchaser.


 


GUARANTY: By signing this Guaranty, I unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee to you every representation and warranty (collectively, the “Representations and Warranties”) given to you by the Seller under the Agreement and the other documents ancillary thereto (such other agreements, together with the Agreement are cumulatively referred to as the “Transaction Documents”).   I further guarantee that said Representations and Warranties were accurate, true and complete when given and at all times subsequent thereto, and that said Representations and Warranties are accurate, true and complete on the date hereof. I further agree that this Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and that all Representations and Warranties to which it applies or may apply are conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. I further guaranty any actual loss, damage, cost, expense, liability, claim or other obligation incurred by you (including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses reasonably incurred) arising out of or in connection with the following:


 


(i)      failure or alleged failure of Seller or Guarantor to comply with the with any applicable laws with respect to any of the Collateral;


 


(ii)     misapplication (whether negligent or  intentional), misappropriation, conversion or theft of any part of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any collections by Seller or Guarantor, or by any officer, employee, agent or representative of any of the foregoing;


 


(iii)     failure to discharge any liens, encumbrances or security interests on the Collateral, other than permitted liens;


 


(iv)    fraud or material misrepresentation by any officer, employee, agent or representative of Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or the Collateral;


 


(v)     sale of Collateral in violation of the Transaction Documents;

I further agree that this Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of performance of said Representations and Warranties, and you and I acknowledge and agree that this is not a guaranty of the Seller’s payment obligations to you.


 


EVENTS NOT AFFECTING THIS GUARANTY: My obligations under this Guaranty are irrevocable, absolute, primary, unconditional and continuing. As a clarification, and in no way as a limitation of my obligations hereunder, I hereby agree not to assert, and hereby waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, for the benefit of the Purchaser or any transferee of this Guaranty, all rights (whether by setoff, deduction, diminution, abatement, recoupment, suspension, deferment, counterclaim and/or otherwise) and defenses (including, without limitation, the defense of fraud in inducement or fact or any other circumstances that would have the effect of discharging a surety or guarantor in law or in equity), whether acquired by subrogation, assignment or otherwise, to avoid its obligations under this Guaranty.  Without limitation of the foregoing, I hereby waive any and all defenses to my obligations under this Guaranty, including without limitation, (a) the genuineness, legality, validity or the enforceability of any of the Transaction Documents, (b) the enforceability of this Guaranty against me, (c) the breach by either party to any of the Transaction Documents or any other person of any warranty thereunder (whether express or implied), (d) the failure of the parties to the Transaction Documents or any other person or entity to perform any covenant or obligation (whether express or implied) in favor of the Guarantor (or otherwise), (e) the failure of any assignment properly completed and executed pursuant to the terms hereof, (f) any taking, exchange, release, amendment, non-perfection, realization or application of or on any Lien or any Collateral, (g) the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding (as defined below) and (h) any other circumstance, occurrence, happening or event whatsoever, whether similar or dissimilar to any of the foregoing, whether foreseen or unforeseen (including, without limitation, any statute of limitations), or any omission, that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor.  For the purposes of this clause, “Insolvency Proceeding” means any bankruptcy, insolvency or rehabilitation of myself, the Seller, or you, or the commencement, after the date hereof, of any bankruptcy, insolvency, rehabilitation, readjustment of debt, reorganization, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings by or against the me, the Seller, or you, the commencement, after the date hereof, of any proceedings by or against me, the Seller, or you for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, or the consent, after the date hereof, to the appointment of a trustee, conservator, receiver or liquidator in any bankruptcy, insolvency, rehabilitation, readjustment of debt, reorganization, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings by or against me, the Seller, or you.
