The Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the
guaranty under this Guaranty of the Guarantied Obligations shall automatically become fully effective upon the occurrence of any Springing
Recourse Event and no other documentation or notice shall be required to evidence the same.


 


Section 2.     Guaranty
of Payment and Not of Collection. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment, and not of collection, and upon the occurrence of a Springing
Recourse Event, a debt of the Guarantor for its own account. Accordingly, no Noteholder will be obligated or required before enforcing
this Guaranty against the Guarantor after a Springing Recourse Event: (a) to pursue any right or remedy it may have against the Company,
any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person or commence any suit or other proceeding against the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or
any other Person in any court or other tribunal; (b) to make any claim in a liquidation or bankruptcy of the Company, the Guarantor,

Recourse Event, the liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional in accordance with
its terms and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or
otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including without limitation, the following (whether or not the Guarantor
consents thereto or has notice thereof and whether before or after the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event):


 


(a)            (i) any
change in the amount, interest rate or due date or other term of any of the Guarantied Obligations, (ii) any change in the time,

from, or any other action or inaction under or in respect of, the Note Agreement, the Notes, any Subsidiary Guaranty or any other documents,
instruments or agreements relating to the Guarantied Obligations or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing
any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;


 






    -4- 


     


    

 


(b)           any
lack of validity or enforceability of the Note Agreement, the Notes, any Subsidiary Guaranty or any other document, instrument or agreement
referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;


 


(c)            any
furnishing to any Noteholder (or to any other Person for the benefit of any Noteholder) of any security for the Guarantied Obligations,
or any sale, exchange, release or surrender of, or realization on, any collateral securing any of the Guarantied Obligations;


 


(d)            any
settlement or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, any security therefor, or any liability of any other party with respect
to the Guarantied Obligations, or any subordination of the payment of the Guarantied Obligations to the payment of any other liability
of the Company, the Guarantor or any Subsidiary Guarantor;


 


(e)            any
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to the Guarantor,
the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver,
or by any court, in any such proceeding;


 


(f)            any
act or failure to act by the Company or any other Person which may adversely affect the Guarantor’s subrogation rights, if any,
against the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor to recover payments made under this Guaranty;


 


(g)            any
nonperfection or impairment of any security interest or other Lien on any collateral, if any, securing in any way any of the Guarantied
Obligations;


 


(h)            any
application of sums paid by the Company any Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the liabilities of the Company to
any Noteholder, regardless of what liabilities of the Company remain unpaid;


 


(i)            any
defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Company or in the exercise thereof; or


 


(j)            any
other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Guarantor hereunder (other than indefeasible
payment and performance in full).


 






    -5- 


     


    

 


Section 4.     Action
with Respect to Guarantied Obligations. The Noteholders may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice
to, the Guarantor, and without discharging the Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, take any and all actions described in Section 3
and may otherwise: (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement the terms of any of the Guarantied Obligations, including, but not limited
to, extending or shortening the time of payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or changing the interest rate that may accrue on
any of the Guarantied Obligations; (b) amend, modify, alter or supplement the Note Agreement or the Notes; provided, however,
that no such amendments can require the Guarantor to modify the nature of the springing guaranty provided hereunder without the approval
of the Guarantor; (c) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with all, or any part, of any collateral securing any of the Guarantied
Obligations; (d) release the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor, or any other Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection
of the Guarantied Obligations; (e) exercise, or refrain from exercising, any rights against the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor
or any other Person; and (f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Guarantied Obligations in such order as
the Noteholders shall elect.


 


Section 5.     Waiver.
The Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives notice of acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand,
protest or notice of any kind, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or thing, which in any manner or to
any extent might vary the risk of the Guarantor or which otherwise might operate to discharge the Guarantor from its obligations hereunder.


 


Section 6.     Inability
to Accelerate Notes. If any Noteholder is prevented under applicable law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any
of the Guarantied Obligations after the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the Noteholders
will be entitled to receive from the Guarantor, upon demand therefor, the sums which otherwise would have been due had such demand or
acceleration occurred.


 


Section 7.     Reinstatement
of Guarantied Obligations. If claim is ever made on any Noteholder for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in
payment or on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and such Noteholder repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any
judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any
such claim effected by such Noteholder with any such claimant (including the Company or a trustee in bankruptcy for the Company), then
and in such event the Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it, notwithstanding
any revocation hereof or the cancellation of the Note Agreement, the Notes, any Subsidiary Guaranty or any other instrument evidencing
any liability of the Company, and the Guarantor shall, upon the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event, be and remain liable to such
Noteholder for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to such Noteholder.


 


Section 8.     Subrogation.
Upon the making by the Guarantor of any payment hereunder for the account of the Company, the Guarantor will be subrogated to the rights
of the payee against the Company; provided, however, that the Guarantor will not enforce any right or receive any payment
by way of subrogation or otherwise take any action in respect of any other claim or cause of action the Guarantor may have against the
Company arising by reason of any payment or performance by the Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, unless and until all of the Guarantied
Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of or in respect
of such subrogation rights or other claims or causes of action, the Guarantor will hold such amount in trust for the benefit of the Noteholders
and will forthwith pay such amount to the Noteholders to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or
unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Note Agreement or to be held by any Noteholder or by any other Person for the benefit of
the Noteholders, as collateral security for any Guarantied Obligations existing.


 






    -6- 


     


    

 


Section 9.     Subordination.
The Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Noteholders that all obligations and liabilities of the Company
to the Guarantor of whatever description, including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of the Guarantor from the Company
(collectively, the “Junior Claims”) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations.
If an Event of Default shall exist, then the Guarantor will not accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities,
by setoff or otherwise) from the Company on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior Claim until all of the Guarantied Obligations
have been indefeasibly paid in full.


 


Section 10.   Avoidance
Provisions. It is the intent of the Guarantor and the Noteholders that in any Proceeding, the Guarantor’s maximum obligation
hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder (or
any other obligations of the Guarantor to the Noteholders) to be avoidable or unenforceable against the Guarantor in such Proceeding as
a result of applicable law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy
Code”) and (b) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether
by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise. The applicable laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability
of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of the Guarantor to the Noteholders) shall be determined in any
such Proceeding are referred to as the “Avoidance Provisions”. Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Guarantied Obligations for which
the Guarantor will be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as of the time any of the Guarantied Obligations are deemed
to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations
of the Guarantor to the Noteholders) to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions. This Section is intended solely to
preserve the rights of the Noteholders hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder
to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and neither the Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim
under this Section as against the Noteholders that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.


 


Section 11.   Information.
The Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Company, and of all other
circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guarantied Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that
the Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Noteholders will have any duty whatsoever to advise the Guarantor
of information regarding such circumstances or risks.

SHALL THEN HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED PURSUANT TO SAID SECTION. THE GUARANTOR AGREES THAT SUCH SERVICE UPON RECEIPT (1) SHALL BE DEEMED
IN EVERY RESPECT EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS UPON IT IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING AND (2) SHALL, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, BE TAKEN AND HELD TO BE VALID PERSONAL SERVICE UPON AND PERSONAL DELIVERY TO IT. NOTICES HEREUNDER SHALL
BE CONCLUSIVELY PRESUMED RECEIVED AS EVIDENCED BY A DELIVERY RECEIPT FURNISHED BY THE UNITED STATES POSTAL SERVICE OR ANY REPUTABLE COMMERCIAL
DELIVERY SERVICE.


 


(c)            NOTHING
IN THIS SECTION 13 SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY NOTEHOLDER TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW, OR LIMIT ANY RIGHT THAT

shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right or remedy.

by any Noteholder to any assignee or transferee (or any prospective assignee or transferee) of any financial or other information regarding

consent of each Noteholder and any such assignment or other transfer to which the Noteholders have not so consented shall be null and
