			1.    Defined Terms.  (a) Unless otherwise defined herein, terms which are defined in the Repurchase Agreement and used herein are so used as so defined.
		

			
	
			
				 (b)
			For purposes of this Guaranty, “Obligations” means (a) all of Seller’s obligations to pay the Repurchase Price on the Repurchase Date and all other obligations and liabilities of Seller to Buyer, its Affiliates, the Custodian or any other Person arising under, or in connection with, the Program Documents or directly related to the Purchased Loans whether now existing or hereafter arising; (b) any and all sums paid by Buyer or on behalf of Buyer pursuant to the Program Documents in order to preserve any Purchased Loan or its interest therein; (c) in the event of any proceeding for the collection or enforcement of any of Seller’s indebtedness, obligations or liabilities referred to in clause (a), the reasonable expenses of retaking, holding, collecting, preparing for sale, selling or otherwise disposing of or realizing on any Purchased Loan or of any exercise by Buyer or any Affiliate of Buyer of its rights under the Program Documents, including without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements and court costs; and (d) all of Seller’s indemnity obligations to Buyer pursuant to the Program Documents.




			
	
			
				 (c)
			The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Guaranty shall refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Guaranty, and section and paragraph references are to this Guaranty unless otherwise specified.




		

		

		 

 

		
		

			
	
			
				 (d)
			The meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and plural forms of such terms.




		
			2.    Guaranty.  (a) Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Buyer and its successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns the prompt and complete payment and performance by Seller when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations.
		

			
	
			
				 (b)
			Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the Buyer in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, the Guarantor under this Guaranty.  This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations are paid in full, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto Seller may be free from any Obligations.




			
	
			
				 (c)
			No payment or payments made by Seller, any other guarantor or any other Person or received or collected by the Buyer from Seller or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder.




			
	
			
				 (d)
			Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, the Guarantor shall make any payment to the Buyer on account of the Guarantor’s liability hereunder, the Guarantor will notify the Buyer in writing that such payment is made under this Guaranty for such purpose.




		
			3.    Right of Set-off.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default hereunder or under any Program Document or failure by Seller or Guarantor to timely perform any of its or their Obligations as set forth herein or in the Repurchase Agreement, the Buyer is hereby irrevocably authorized at any time and from time to time without notice to the Guarantor, any such notice being hereby waived by the Guarantor, to set off and appropriate and apply any and all monies and other property of the Guarantor, deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by the Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as the Buyer may elect, on account of the liabilities of the Guarantor hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Buyer against the Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Repurchase Agreement or otherwise, as the Buyer may elect, whether or not the Buyer has made any demand for payment and although such liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured.  Buyer may set off cash, the proceeds of the liquidation of any of the Purchased Items and all other sums or obligations owed by Buyer or its Affiliates to Seller or Guarantor against all of Seller’s or Guarantor’s obligations to Buyer or its Affiliates, whether under this Guaranty or under any other agreement between the parties or between Seller or Guarantor or any other guarantor and any Affiliate of the Buyer, or otherwise, whether or not such obligations are then due, without prejudice to Buyer’s or its Affiliate’s right to recover any deficiency.  The Buyer shall notify the Guarantor of any such set-off and the application made by the Buyer, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.  The rights of the Buyer under this paragraph are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Buyer may have. Upon an Event of Default in the performance of any obligations hereunder or under the Program Documents, the Buyer shall have the right to cause liquidation, termination or acceleration to the extent of any assets pledged by the Guarantor to secure its obligations hereunder or under any other agreement to which this Section 3 applies.

			4.    Subrogation.  Upon making any payment hereunder, the Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of Buyer against Seller and any Purchased Items under the Repurchase Agreement for any Obligations with respect to such payment; provided that the Guarantor shall not seek to enforce any right or receive any payment by way of subrogation until all amounts due and payable by Seller to Buyer under the Repurchase Agreement or any other Program Document have been paid in full.  Until one year and one day after payment of the full amount and discharge of all Obligations, the performance of all of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder and the termination of this Guaranty, neither any payment made by or for the account of Guarantor nor any performance or enforcement of any obligation pursuant to this Guaranty shall entitle the Guarantor by subrogation, indemnity, exoneration, reimbursement, contribution or otherwise to any payment by Seller or to any payment from or out of any property of Seller, and Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy against Seller or any property of Seller by reason of any performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty.  If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full or performed, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Buyer and shall forthwith be paid to the Buyer to be credited and applied upon the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty.
		

		
			5.    Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations.  Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Buyer may be rescinded by the Buyer, and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Buyer, and the Repurchase Agreement, and the other Program Documents and any other document in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, in accordance with its terms and as the Buyer may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Buyer for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released.  The Buyer shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guaranty or any property subject thereto.  When making any demand hereunder against the Guarantor, the Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on Seller or any other guarantor, and any failure by the Buyer to make any such demand or to collect any payments from Seller or any such other guarantor or any release of Seller or such other guarantor shall not relieve the Guarantor of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Buyer against the Guarantor.  For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
		

		
			6.    Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional.    Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Buyer upon this Guaranty or acceptance of this Guaranty; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guaranty; and all dealings between Seller or the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Buyer, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty.  Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon Seller or the Guaranty with respect to the Obligations.  This Guaranty shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of the Repurchase Agreement, the other Program Documents, any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Buyer, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by it or Seller against the Buyer, or (iii) any other circumstance

			whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of Seller or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of Seller for the Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, in bankruptcy or in any other instance.  When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation, to pursue such rights and remedies that they may have against Seller or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Buyer to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from Seller or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of Seller or any such other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Buyer against the Guarantor.  This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantor and its successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Buyer, and its successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Obligations and the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall have been satisfied by payment in full, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Repurchase Agreement Seller may be free from any Obligations.
		

			
	
			
				 (a)
			Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby agrees, acknowledges, and represents and warrants to the Buyer as follows:




			
	
			
				(i)
			Guarantor hereby waives any defense arising by reason of, and any and all right to assert against the Buyer any claim or defense based upon, an election of remedies by the Buyer which in any manner impairs, affects, reduces, releases, destroys and/or extinguishes  Guarantor’s subrogation rights, rights to proceed against Seller or any other guarantor for reimbursement or contribution, and/or any other rights of the Guarantor to proceed against Seller, against any other guarantor, or against any other person or security.




			
	
			
				(ii)
			Guarantor is presently informed of the financial condition of Seller and of all other circumstances which diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations.  The Guarantor hereby covenants that it will make its own investigation and will continue to keep itself informed of the financial condition of Seller, of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment and that it will continue to rely upon sources other than the Buyer for such information and will not rely upon the Buyer for any such information.  Absent a written request for such information by the Guarantor to the Buyer, Guarantor hereby waives its right, if any, to require the Buyer to disclose to Guarantor any information which the Buyer may now or hereafter acquire concerning such condition or circumstances including, but not limited to, the release of or revocation by any other guarantor.




			
	
			
				(iii)
			Guarantor has independently reviewed the Repurchase Agreement and related agreements and has made an independent determination as to the validity and enforceability thereof, and in executing and delivering this Guaranty to the Buyer, Guarantor is not in any manner relying upon the validity, and/or enforceability, and/or attachment, and/or perfection of any Liens or security interests of any kind or nature granted by Seller or any other guarantor to the Buyer, now or at any time and from time to time in the future.




		
			7.    Reinstatement.  This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Buyer upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Seller or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator
