from any of the following matters:


 


(i)          fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct by Seller, Pledgor, or Guarantor, or any Affiliate of Seller, Pledgor

to Environmental Laws, or any indemnity for documented and out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with the violation of any
Environmental Law, the correction of any environmental condition, or the removal of any Materials of Environmental Concern, in
each case in any way affecting Seller’s or Guarantor’s properties or any of the Purchased Assets; and


 


(iii)

that encumber any or all of the Purchased Assets that are not permitted under the Transaction Documents.


 


(e)         
Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all documented and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable
fees and disbursements of counsel) which may be paid or incurred by Buyer in enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting,
any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any rights with respect to, or collecting against, Guarantor under this Guarantee
after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect until
the later of (i) the date upon which the Obligations are paid in full and (ii) the termination of the Repurchase Agreement, notwithstanding
that from time to time prior thereto, Seller and/or Pledgor may be free from any Obligations.


 


(f)          
Nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver of any right which Buyer may have under Sections 506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other
provision of the Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the outstanding obligations under the Repurchase Agreement
or to require that all Purchased Assets shall continue to secure all of the outstanding obligations owing to Buyer in accordance
with the Repurchase Agreement or any other Transaction Documents.

time, in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability
of Guarantor hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment or payments, remain liable for the amount of the Obligations
under this Guarantee until the Obligations are paid in full.


 






     -3-


     


    

 


(h)          
Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, Guarantor shall make any payment to Buyer on account of any
liability hereunder, Guarantor will notify Buyer in writing that such payment is made under this Guarantee for such purpose; provided,
however, that failure to deliver to Buyer any such notice shall not constitute a waiver by Guarantor of any defense of payment
or performance.


 


3.             Subrogation.
Upon making any payment hereunder, Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of Buyer against Seller and Pledgor and any collateral
for any Obligations with respect to such payment; provided, that Guarantor shall not seek to enforce any right or receive
any payment by way of subrogation until all amounts due and payable by Seller or Pledgor to Buyer under the Transaction Documents
or any related documents have been paid in full; provided, further, that such subrogation rights shall be subordinate
in all respects to all amounts owing to Buyer under the Transaction Documents.


 


4.             Amendments,
etc. with Respect to the Obligations. Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation
of rights against Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations
made by Buyer may be rescinded by 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 Buyer and any Transaction Document and any other document in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented
or terminated, in whole or in part, as Buyer may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right
of offset at any time held by Buyer for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released.
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 any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against Guarantor, Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation
to, make a similar demand on Seller or any other Person, and any failure by Buyer to make any such demand or to collect any payments
from Seller or any such other Person or any release of Seller or such other Person shall not relieve 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
Buyer against Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal
proceedings.


 






     -4-


     


    

 


5.             Guarantee
Absolute and Unconditional. (a) Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations under this Guarantee constitute a guarantee of
payment when due and not of collection. 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 Buyer upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee; the Obligations,
and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee; and
all dealings between Seller and Guarantor, on the one hand, and Buyer, on the other hand, shall likewise be conclusively presumed
to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. Guarantor waives promptness, diligence, presentment, protest,
demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon Seller or Guarantor with respect to the Obligations. This Guarantee
shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (i) the validity, regularity
or enforceability of any Transaction Document, 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 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 Seller against Buyer, (iii)
any requirement that Buyer exhaust any right to take any action against Seller or any other Person prior to or contemporaneously
with proceeding to exercise any right against Guarantor under this Guarantee or (iv) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or
without notice to or Knowledge of Seller and Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or
legal discharge of Seller for the Obligations, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder
against Guarantor, Buyer may, but shall be under no obligation, to pursue such rights and remedies that Buyer 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 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 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 Buyer against Guarantor. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and
to the extent of its terms upon Guarantor and its successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of Buyer and
its permitted successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Obligations and the obligations of Guarantor under
this Guarantee shall have been satisfied by payment in full.


 


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


 


(i)           
Guarantor hereby waives any defense arising by reason of, and any and all right to assert against Buyer any claim or defense based
upon, an election of remedies by 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 Guarantor to proceed against Seller, any other guarantor or 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. Guarantor hereby covenants that it will make its own investigation
and will continue to keep itself informed about the financial condition of Seller, the status of other guarantors, if any, of
all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment and that it will continue to rely upon sources other than Buyer
for such information and will not rely upon Buyer for any such information. Absent a written request for such information by Guarantor
to Buyer, Guarantor hereby waives the right, if any, to require Buyer to disclose to Guarantor any information which 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.


 






     -5-


     


    

 


(iii)       
Guarantor has independently reviewed the Transaction Documents and related agreements and has made an independent determination
as to the validity and enforceability thereof, and in executing and delivering this Guarantee to 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 Buyer, now or at any time and from time to time in the future.


 


6.            Reinstatement.
This Guarantee 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 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 of,
or trustee or similar officer for Seller or any substantial part of the property of Seller, or otherwise, all as though such payments
had not been made.


 


7.            Payments.
Guarantor hereby agrees that the Obligations will be paid to Buyer, without set-off or counterclaim in United States Dollars at
the address specified in writing by Buyer.

does not believe, nor does it have any reason or cause to believe, that it cannot perform in all respects all covenants and obligations

Taxes that are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and for which appropriate reserves
have been established in accordance with GAAP. Guarantor has satisfied all of its withholding tax obligations. No tax Liens have
been filed against any assets of Guarantor and no claims are currently being asserted in writing against Guarantor with respect
to Taxes (except for Liens and with respect to Taxes not yet due and payable or Liens or claims with respect to Taxes that are
being contested in good faith and for which adequate reserves have been established in accordance with GAAP);


 


(g)           No

under the Repurchase Agreement, on and as of such date of the Transaction, as though made hereunder on and as of such date.

subject to continuing verification of Buyer and Guarantor shall provide information that is reasonably requested by Buyer with
respect to any lawsuits and/or other matters disclosed in any financial statements of Guarantor delivered to Buyer which would
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on Guarantor’s ability to comply with the covenants set forth in
this Section 9; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, such continued verification shall not obligate
Guarantor or Seller to provide additional financial statements or Covenant Compliance Certificates other than those required under
Article 11(g) of the Repurchase Agreement.


 


10.           Further
Covenants of Guarantor:

agrees that, from time to time upon the prior written request of Buyer, it shall execute and deliver such further documents, provide
such additional information and reports and perform such other acts as Buyer may reasonably request in order to insure compliance
with the provisions hereof (including, without limitation, compliance with the USA Patriot Act of 2001 and to fully effectuate
the purposes of this Guarantee); provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10(b)(ii) shall be construed
as requiring Buyer to conduct any inquiry or decreasing Guarantor’s responsibility for its statements, representations,
warranties or covenants hereunder. In order to enable Buyer and its Affiliates to comply with any anti-money laundering program
and related responsibilities including, but not limited to, any obligations under the USA Patriot Act of 2001 and regulations

any other distribution in respect thereof, either directly or indirectly, whether in cash or property or in obligations of Guarantor,

status as a “real estate investment trust” under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code.

11.           Right
of Set-Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and upon any Obligations becoming due and
payable by Guarantor (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes Buyer
and its Affiliates, without notice to Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by Guarantor to the extent permitted by
applicable law, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all 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,

or any part thereof in such amounts as Buyer may elect, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor
to Buyer hereunder and claims of every nature and description of Buyer against Guarantor, in any currency, arising under any Transaction
Document, as Buyer may elect, whether or not Buyer has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities
and claims may be contingent or unmatured. Buyer shall notify Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made
by Buyer, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
The rights of Buyer under this Section 11 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation,
other rights of set-off) that the Buyer may have.


 


12.           Severability.
Any provision of this Guarantee which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective
