	C.	The Note is secured by, among other things, mortgages, deeds to secure debt and deeds of trust identified on Schedule 1 to this Agreement (collectively, as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented or

	D.	The real property which is the subject of the Security Instrument is referred to hereinafter as the “Property”. 


 

	E.	The Loan Agreement, the Security Instrument, the Note, and those other documents described in the Loan Agreement as Loan Documents, together with all modifications, extensions, renewals and amendments thereto, are

THEREFORE, to induce Lender to enter into the Loan Agreement and to make the Loan, and in consideration thereof, Guarantor unconditionally, absolutely and
irrevocably guarantees and agrees as follows: 
  

	1.	GUARANTY. 

  

	 	1.1	 Completion Guaranty. Guarantor hereby unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably guarantees the performance by LV II Borrower and
Bluegrass Borrower of all the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement pertaining to such Borrower’s respective obligations with respect to the construction of the Construction Improvements in accordance with the Plans and Specifications.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor guarantees that: (i) construction of the Construction Improvements shall commence and be completed within the time limits set forth in the Loan Agreement, as renewed, extended or
modified from time to time; (ii) the Construction Improvements shall be constructed and completed in accordance with the Plans and Specifications and Tenant Improvements shall be




  
 1 









	 	
constructed in accordance with Approved Leases executed pursuant to the provisions of the Loan Documents, without substantial deviation therefrom unless approved by Lender in writing;
(iii) the Construction Improvements shall be constructed and completed free and clear of any mechanic’s liens, materialman’s liens and equitable liens; (iv) all costs of constructing the Construction Improvements shall be paid
when due; and (v) the Loan proceeds shall remain available for disbursement and shall be disbursed to Guarantor in accordance with the Loan Budget and other terms of the Loan Agreement, as Guarantor completes or causes to complete the
construction of the Construction Improvements free and clear of any mechanics lien affidavits or claims or retention notices. 

  

	2.	LIEN FREE COMPLETION. Completion of the Construction Improvements free and clear of liens shall be deemed to have occurred upon Completion (as defined in the Loan Agreement). 


 

	3.	OBLIGATIONS OF GUARANTOR UPON DEFAULT BY BORROWER. If the Construction Improvements are not commenced and completed in the manner and within the time required by the Loan Agreement (after any applicable
notices and lapse of any applicable cure period), or if, prior to the expiration of the time limits for said completion set forth in the Loan Agreement, construction of the Construction Improvements should cease or be halted prior to completion and
such cessation or halt constitutes a Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) (after any applicable notices and lapse of any applicable cure period), Guarantor shall, promptly upon demand of Lender: (a) diligently proceed to complete
construction of the Construction Improvements at Guarantor’s sole cost and expense; (b) fully pay and discharge all claims for labor performed and material (including specially fabricated materials) and services furnished in connection
with the construction of the Construction Improvements; (c) release and discharge all mechanic’s liens, materialman’s liens and equitable liens or related claims, affidavits or notices that may arise in connection with the
construction of the Construction Improvements; and (d) pay to Lender the amount of any loss or damage incurred by Lender as a result of any delay in the completion of construction of the Construction Improvements beyond the time specified in
the Loan Agreement for such completion, which amount shall include, but not be limited to (i) interest on the principal amount outstanding under the Loan for any period of such delay which precedes the transfer of title to the Property to
Lender; and (ii) the reasonable rental value of the completed Construction Improvements during any period of the delay in completion that Lender is the owner of the Property. Without in any way limiting the above obligations of
Guarantor, Lender shall make the undisbursed Loan funds available to Guarantor (pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement) for the purposes of completing the Construction Improvements and fulfilling Guarantor’s other
obligations under this Guaranty; provided, however, that the obligation of Lender to make such undisbursed Loan funds available to Guarantor is expressly conditioned upon: (x) there being no continuing default beyond any
applicable notice and cure periods by Guarantor under this Guaranty; and (y) the applicable Borrower (and/or Guarantor) having provided to Lender all Borrower’s Funds required by the terms and conditions of the Loan Agreement.


  

	4.	REMEDIES. If Guarantor fails to promptly perform its obligations under this Guaranty, Lender shall have the following remedies: 


 

	 	4.1	At Lender’s option, and without any obligation to do so, to proceed to perform on behalf of Guarantor any or all of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder and Guarantor shall, upon demand and whether or not
construction is actually completed by Lender, pay to Lender all sums expended by Lender in performing Guarantor’s obligations hereunder (but not any costs which represent any upgrade to the Plans and Specifications made by Lender in such
completion of construction) together with interest thereon at the highest rate specified in the Note; and 

  

	 	4.2	From time to time, and without first requiring performance by Borrower or any other guarantor or without exhausting any or all security (if any) for the Loan or any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender, bring any
action at law or in equity or both to compel Guarantor to perform its obligations hereunder, and to collect in any such action compensation for all loss, cost, damage, injury and expense sustained or incurred by Lender as a direct or indirect
consequence of the failure of Guarantor to perform its obligations hereunder, together with interest thereon at the rate of interest applicable to the principal balance of the Note. 


  
 2 









	5.	RIGHTS OF LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, without giving notice to Guarantor or obtaining Guarantor’s consent and without affecting the liability of Guarantor, from time to time to:
(a) approve modifications to the Plans and Specifications so long as such modifications do not materially increase the cost of constructing the Construction Improvements nor materially increase the time necessary to complete the Construction
Improvements; (b) change the terms or conditions of disbursement of the Loan so long as such changes do not materially interfere with Borrower’s ability to construct the Construction Improvements as and when required under the Loan
Agreement; (c) renew, modify or extend all or any portion of Borrower’s obligations under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents and any obligations under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender;
(d) declare all sums owing to Lender under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents and any obligations under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender due and payable upon the occurrence of a Default under the
Loan Documents or an Event of Default as defined in any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender; (e) make non-material changes in the dates specified for payments of any sums payable in periodic
installments under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents; (f) otherwise modify the terms of any of the Loan Documents or any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender, except for: (i) increases in the principal amount of the Note or
changes in the manner by which interest rates, fees or charges are calculated under the Note and the other Loan Documents (Guarantor acknowledges that if the Note or the other Loan Documents so provide, said interest rates, fees and charges may vary
from time to time) or (ii) advancement of the Maturity Date (as defined in the Note) of the Note where no Default has occurred under the Loan Document; (g) take and hold security for the performance of Borrower’s obligations under
Note or the other Loan Documents and any obligations under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate and release any such security in whole or part; (h) apply such security
and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Lender in its discretion may determine; (i) release, substitute or add any one or more endorsers of the Note or guarantors of Borrower’s obligations under the Note or the other Loan
Documents or any obligations under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender; (j) apply payments received by Lender from Borrower to any obligations of Borrower to Lender, in such order as Lender shall determine in
its sole discretion, whether or not any such obligations are covered by this Guaranty; (k) assign this Guaranty in whole or in part (as long as the interests in the other Loan Documents are also assigned to the same assignee subject to the
terms of the Loan Agreement); and (l) assign, transfer or negotiate all or any part of the indebtedness guaranteed by this Guaranty subject to the terms of the Loan Agreement. 


 

	6.	 GUARANTOR’S WAIVERS. Guarantor waives any and all rights and defenses based upon or arising out of (a) any legal disability or
other defense of Borrower, any other guarantor or other person or by reason of the cessation or limitation of the liability of Borrower from any cause other than full payment of all sums payable under the Loan Documents, performance of those
obligations of Borrower which are guaranteed hereunder and satisfaction of all obligations under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender; (b) any lack of authority of the officers, directors, partners, managers,
members or agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of Borrower, Guarantor or any principal of Borrower or Guarantor, any defect in the formation of Borrower, Guarantor or any principal of Borrower or Guarantor; (c) the application by
Borrower of the proceeds of the Loan for purposes other than the purposes represented by Borrower to Lender or intended or understood by Lender or Guarantor; (d) any act or omission by Lender which directly or indirectly results in, or
contributes to, the release of Borrower or any other person or any collateral for any obligation to Lender in connection with the Loan (other than as a result of a repayment in full of the obligations of Borrower under the Loan); (e) the
unenforceability or invalidity of any collateral assignment or guaranty with respect to any obligation to Lender in connection with the Loan, or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or lack of priority of any lien which secures any
obligation to Lender in connection with the Loan; (f) any failure of Lender to marshal assets in favor of Guarantor or any other person; (g) any modification of any obligation to Lender in connection with the Loan, including, without
limitation, any renewal, extension, acceleration or increase in interest rate; (h) an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies (such as a non-judicial foreclosure, if available and/or permitted, with respect to
security for a guaranteed obligation) has or may have destroyed Guarantor’s rights of subrogation, reimbursement and contribution against the principal by the operation of applicable law or otherwise; (i) Lender’s failure to disclose
to Guarantor any information concerning Borrower’s financial condition or any other circumstances bearing on Borrower’s ability to pay and perform its obligations under the Note or any of the other Loan Documents and any obligations under
or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender, or upon the failure of any other principals of Borrower to guaranty the Loan or any obligations under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender;
(j) any statute or rule of law which provides 



  
 3 









	 	
that the obligation of a surety or guarantor must be neither larger in amount nor in any other respects more burdensome than that of a principal or which reduces a surety’s or
guarantor’s obligation in proportion to the principal obligation; (k) any failure of Lender to file or enforce a claim in any bankruptcy or other proceeding with respect to any person; (l) Lender’s election, in any proceeding
instituted under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any successor statute; (m) any borrowing or any grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Federal
Bankruptcy Code; (n) any right of subrogation, any right to enforce any remedy which Lender may have against Borrower and any right to participate in, or benefit from, any security for the Note or the other Loan Documents or any obligations
under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender now or hereafter held by Lender; (o) presentment, demand, protest and notice of any kind (except for notices to Borrower, as required under the Loan Documents);
(p) any statute of limitations affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder or the enforcement hereof; (q) any right to require Lender to institute suit or exhaust remedies against Borrower or others liable for any of such indebtedness,
to enforce Lender’s rights against any collateral which shall have been given to secure the Loan, to enforce Lender’s rights against any other guarantors of such indebtedness, to join Borrower or any others liable on such indebtedness in
any action seeking to enforce this Guaranty, to resort to any other means of obtaining payment of such indebtedness; (r) notices of disbursement of Loan proceeds, acceptance hereof, proof of non-payment, default under any of the Loan Documents,
notices and demands of any kind; (s) the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of all or any portion of the indebtedness guaranteed hereby or any of the Loan Documents for any reason whatsoever, including that interest on such indebtedness
violates applicable usury laws, that Borrower or others liable for all or a portion thereof have valid defenses, claims or offsets to all or a portion of such indebtedness, or that the Note or other Loan Documents have been forged or otherwise are
irregular or not genuine or authentic (it being agreed that Guarantor shall remain liable under this Guaranty regardless of whether Borrower or any other person shall be found not liable for repayment of all or a portion of such indebtedness);
(t) use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the United States Bankruptcy Code; or (u) any agreement or stipulation with respect to the provision of adequate protection in any bankruptcy proceeding of any person. Guarantor further
specifically waives any and all rights and defenses that Guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property; this means, among other things, that: (1) Lender may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any
real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower; (2) if Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower, then (A) the amount of the debt may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at
the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price, and (B) Lender may collect from Guarantor even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from
Borrower. The foregoing sentence is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because Borrower’s debt is secured by real property. These rights and defenses being waived by Guarantor include, but are
not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon deficiency limitation or anti-deficiency, redemption or other similar rights. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, Guarantor further expressly waives to the
extent permitted by law any and all rights and defenses, including without limitation, any rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification and contribution, which might otherwise be available to Guarantor under applicable law. To the extent
permitted under applicable law, Guarantor agrees that the payment or performance of any act which tolls any statute of limitations applicable to the Note or any of the other Loan Documents shall similarly operate to toll the statute of limitations
applicable to Guarantor’s liability hereunder. This understanding and waiver is made in addition to and not in limitation of any of the other terms and conditions of this Guaranty. 


 

	7.	 GUARANTOR’S WARRANTIES. Guarantor warrants, represents, covenants and acknowledges to Lender that: (a) Lender would not make
the Loan nor enter into any Swap Agreement with the Borrower but for this Guaranty; (b) Guarantor has reviewed all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Agreement, any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender, Plans and Specifications and
the other Loan Documents; (c) there are no conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty; (d) Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from sources other than Lender, on a continuing basis, financial and other
information pertaining to Borrower’s financial condition, the Property and Borrower’s activities relating thereto and the status of Borrower’s performance of obligations under the Loan Documents and any Swap Agreement with Lender, and
Guarantor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any facts, events or circumstances which might in any way affect Guarantor’s risks hereunder, and Lender has made no representation to Guarantor as to any such matters;
(e) the most recent financial statements of Guarantor heretofore or hereafter delivered to Lender (i) are or will be materially complete and correct, (ii) present fairly and accurately the financial condition of Guarantor as of the




  
 4 









	 	
respective dates thereof, and (iii) are or will be prepared in accordance with the same accounting standards used by Guarantor to prepare the financial statements delivered to and approved
by Lender in connection with the making of the Loan, or other accounting standards approved by Lender, and since the date of such financial statements, there has been no material adverse change in such financial condition of Guarantor, nor has any
asset or property reflected on such financial statements been sold, transferred, assigned, mortgaged, pledged or encumbered which would have a Material Adverse Effect except as previously disclosed in writing by Guarantor to Lender;
(f) Guarantor has not and will not, without the prior written consent of Lender, sell, lease, assign, encumber, pledge, hypothecate, mortgage, transfer or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor’s assets, or any interest
therein, other than in the ordinary course of Guarantor’s business and subject to Permitted Transfers; (g) Guarantor is not and will not be, as a consequence of the execution and delivery of this Guaranty, impaired or rendered
“insolvent”, as that term is defined in Section 101 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code, or otherwise rendered unable to pay Guarantor’s debts as the same mature and will not have thereby undertaken liabilities in excess of the
present fair value of Guarantor’s assets; and (h) the calculation of liabilities in any such financial statements do NOT include any fair value adjustments to the carrying value of liabilities to record such liabilities at fair value
pursuant to electing the fair value option election under FASB ASC 825-10-25 (formerly known as FAS 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial
Liabilities) or other FASB standards allowing entities to elect fair value option for financial liabilities; and therefore, the amount of liabilities is the historical cost basis, which generally is the contractual amount owed adjusted for
amortization or accretion of any premium or discount. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Lender may request and obtain additional information from third parties regarding any of the above, including, without limitation, credit reports.


  

	8.	SUBORDINATION. Guarantor subordinates all present and future indebtedness owing by Borrower or, following the occurrence of a Default, by any other guarantor under any guaranty or indemnity of the Loan or
an Event of Default under, and defined in, any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender, to Guarantor to the obligations at any time owing by Borrower to Lender under the Note and the other Loan Documents or under or in connection with any Swap
Agreement between Borrower and Lender. Guarantor agrees to make no claim for such indebtedness until all obligations of Borrower under the Note and the other Loan Documents and under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and
Lender have been fully discharged. Guarantor agrees that it will not take any action or initiate any proceedings, judicial or otherwise, to enforce Guarantor’s rights or remedies with respect to any such indebtedness, including without
limitation any action to enforce remedies with respect to any defaults under such indebtedness or to any collateral securing such indebtedness or to obtain any judgment or prejudgment remedy against Borrower or any such collateral until all
obligations of Borrower under the Note and the other Loan Documents and under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender have been fully discharged. Guarantor also agrees that until all obligations of Borrower under the
Note and the other Loan Documents and under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender have been fully discharged, it will not commence or join with any other creditor or creditors of Borrower in commencing any bankruptcy,
reorganization or insolvency proceedings against Borrower. Guarantor further agrees not to assign all or any part of such indebtedness unless Lender is given prior notice and such assignment is expressly made subject to the terms of this Guaranty.


  

	9.	 BANKRUPTCY OF BORROWER. In any bankruptcy or other proceeding in which the filing of claims is required by law, Guarantor shall file all
claims which Guarantor may have against Borrower relating to any indebtedness of Borrower to Guarantor and shall assign to Lender all rights of Guarantor thereunder. If Guarantor does not file any such claim, Lender, as attorney-in-fact for Guarantor, is hereby authorized to do so in the name of Guarantor or, in Lender’s discretion, to assign the claim to a nominee and to cause proof of
claim to be filed in the name of Lender’s nominee. The foregoing power of attorney is coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked. Lender or Lender’s nominee shall have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to accept or reject any
plan proposed in such proceeding and to take any other action which a party filing a claim is entitled to do. In all such cases, whether in administration, bankruptcy or otherwise, the person or persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to
Lender the amount payable on such claim and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, Guarantor hereby assigns to Lender all of Guarantor’s rights to any such payments or distributions; provided, however, Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder shall not be satisfied except to the extent that Lender receives cash by reason of any such payment or distribution. If Lender receives anything hereunder other than cash, the same shall be held as collateral for amounts due
under this Guaranty. If all or any portion of the obligations guaranteed hereunder are paid or performed, the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall continue and shall remain in full force and effect in the event that all or any part of such
payment or performance is avoided or recovered directly or indirectly from 



  
 5 









	 	
Lender as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise under the Bankruptcy Code or other similar laws, irrespective of (a) any notice of revocation given by Guarantor prior to such
avoidance or recovery, or (b) full payment and performance of all of the indebtedness and obligations evidenced and secured by the Loan Documents and under or in connection with any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender. 


 

	10.	ADDITIONAL, INDEPENDENT AND UNSECURED OBLIGATIONS. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. This Guaranty cannot be revoked by Guarantor and shall continue
to be effective with respect to any indebtedness referenced in Section 1 hereof arising or created after any attempted revocation hereof or after the death of Guarantor (if Guarantor is a natural person, in which event this Guaranty
shall be binding upon Guarantor’s estate and Guarantor’s legal representatives and heirs). The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be in addition to and shall not limit or in any way affect the obligations of Guarantor under any other
existing or future guaranties unless said other guaranties are expressly modified or revoked in writing. This Guaranty is independent of the obligations of Borrower under the Note, the other Loan Documents and under or in connection with any Swap
Agreement between Borrower and Lender, and the Security Instrument. Lender may bring a separate action to enforce the provisions hereof against Guarantor without taking action against Borrower or any other party or joining Borrower or any other
party as a party to such action. Except as otherwise provided in this Guaranty, this Guaranty is not secured and shall not be deemed to be secured by any security instrument unless such security instrument expressly recites that it secures this
Guaranty. 

  

	11.	CREDIT REPORTS. Each legal entity and individual obligated on this Guaranty hereby authorizes Lender to order and obtain, from a credit reporting agency of Lender’s choice, a third party credit report
on such legal entity and individual; provided Lender shall keep such credit reports confidential. 

  

	12.	ENFORCEABILITY. Guarantor hereby acknowledges that: (a) the obligations undertaken by Guarantor in this Guaranty are complex in nature, and (b) numerous possible defenses to the enforceability of
these obligations may presently exist and/or may arise hereafter, and (c) as part of Lender’s consideration for entering into this transaction and any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender, Lender has specifically bargained for the
waiver and relinquishment by Guarantor of all such defenses, and (d) Guarantor has had the opportunity to seek and receive legal advice from skilled legal counsel in the area of financial transactions of the type contemplated herein. Given all
of the above, Guarantor does hereby represent and confirm to Lender that Guarantor is fully informed regarding, and that Guarantor does thoroughly understand: (i) the nature of all such possible defenses, and (ii) the circumstances under
which such defenses may arise, and (iii) the benefits which such defenses might confer upon Guarantor, and (iv) the legal consequences to Guarantor of waiving such defenses. Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor makes this Guaranty with
the intent that this Guaranty and all of the informed waivers herein shall each and all be fully enforceable by Lender, and that Lender is induced to enter into this transaction in material reliance upon the presumed full enforceability thereof.


  

	13.	MISCELLANEOUS. 

  

	 	13.1	Notices. All notices, demands, or other communications under this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents shall be in writing and shall be delivered to the appropriate party at the address set forth below

continental United States by the giving of thirty (30) days’ notice to the other party in the manner set forth hereinabove. Guarantor shall forward to Lender, without delay, any notices, letters or other communications delivered to
Guarantor naming Lender or the “Construction Lender” or any similar designation as addressee which would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the construction of the Construction Improvements or the ability of Guarantor to perform

	 	13.2	Attorneys’ Fees and Expenses; Enforcement. If any attorney is engaged by Lender to enforce or defend any provision of this Guaranty, any of the other Loan Documents or Other Related Documents, or as a
consequence of any Default under the Loan Documents, or an Event of Default under or in connection with, and as defined in, any Swap Agreement between Borrower and Lender, with or without the filing of any legal action or proceeding, and including,
without limitation, any fees and expenses incurred in any bankruptcy proceeding or in connection with any appeal of a lower court decision, then Guarantor shall immediately pay to Lender, upon demand, the amount of all attorneys’ fees and
expenses and all costs incurred in connection therewith, including all trial and appellate proceedings in any legal action, suit, bankruptcy or other proceeding, together with interest thereon from the date of such demand until paid at the rate of
interest applicable to the principal balance of the Note as specified therein. In the event of any legal proceedings, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees shall be set by the court and not by jury and shall be included in any judgment
obtained by Lender. 

  

	 	13.3	 No Waiver. No previous waiver and no failure or delay by Lender in acting with respect to the terms of the Note or this Guaranty shall
constitute a waiver of any breach, default, or failure of condition under the 



  
 7 









	 	
Note or this Guaranty or the obligations secured thereby. A waiver of any term of the Note or this Guaranty or of any of the obligations secured thereby must be made in writing and shall be
limited to the express written terms of such waiver. 

  

	 	13.4	Loan Sales and Participation; Disclosure of Information. Lender may sell or assign all or any portion (not less than $5,000,000) of its rights and obligations under the Loan with Borrower’s prior
written approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, that, (i) during the existence of a Default, Lender shall not be required to sell or assign any minimum amount or obtain Borrower’s approval, and
(ii) such approval shall be deemed granted if Borrower fails to approve or disapprove such sale or assignment within 10 Business Days following Lender’s request therefor. Lender, may, at any time and in its sole expense, grant
participations in the Loan. If Lender assigns or participates any portion (but not all) of its interest in the Loan, Lender shall become and remain the sole administrative agent under the Loan, and shall be Borrower’s sole point of contact with
respect to the Loan. Lender may freely grant participations of all or any portion of the Loan. 

 Anything in this Guaranty to
the contrary notwithstanding, and without the need to comply with any of the formal or procedural requirements of this Guaranty, including this Section, any lender may at any time and from time to time pledge and assign all or any portion of its
rights under all or any of the Loan Documents to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such lender from its obligations thereunder. 
  

	 	13.5	Waiver of Right to Trial by Jury. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE STATE LAW, EACH PARTY TO THIS GUARANTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION
(a) ARISING UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE MODIFICATION THEREOF OR (b) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO OR ANY OF THEM WITH RESPECT TO
THE LOAN DOCUMENTS (AS NOW OR HEREAFTER MODIFIED) OR ANY OTHER INSTRUMENT, DOCUMENT OR AGREEMENT EXECUTED OR DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH, OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO, IN EACH CASE WHETHER SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF
