This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, non-perfection or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of the Guarantors under this Guaranty, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defenses it may now have or hereafter acquire in any way relating to any or all of the foregoing (other than, subject to Section 8, a defense of payment in full). 
3.    No Setoff or Deductions; Taxes; Payments.  Each Guarantor represents and warrants that it is organized and resident in the United States of America.  The Guarantors shall make all payments hereunder in accordance with Section 5.7 of the Loan Agreement which provisions shall be herein incorporated by reference mutatis mutandis.  The obligations of each Guarantor under this paragraph shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of this Guaranty.
4.    Rights of Lender.  Each Guarantor consents and agrees that the Secured Parties may at any time and from time to time, without notice or demand, and without affecting the enforceability or continuing effectiveness hereof:  (a) amend, extend, renew, compromise, discharge, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment or the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof; (b) take, hold, exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any security for the payment of this Guaranty or any Guaranteed Obligations; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Lenders in their sole discretion may determine; and (d) release or substitute one or more of any endorsers or other guarantors of any of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of the Guarantors under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of one or more of the Guarantors.
5.    Certain Waivers.  Each Guarantor waives (a) any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any Obligor or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever (including any act or omission of any Secured Party) of the liability of any Obligor; (b) any defense based on any claim that a Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of the other Obligors; (c) the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting any Guarantor’s liability hereunder; (d) any right to require a Secured Party  to proceed against one or more of the Borrowers or other Obligors, proceed against or exhaust any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or pursue any other remedy in any Secured Party’s power whatsoever; (e) any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by the Secured Parties; and (f) to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all other defenses or benefits (other than, subject to Section 8, a defense of payment in full) that may be derived from or afforded by applicable law limiting the liability of or exonerating guarantors or sureties.  Each Guarantor expressly waives all setoffs and counterclaims and all presentments, demands for payment or performance, notices of nonpayment or nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and all other notices or demands of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all notices of acceptance of this Guaranty or of the existence, creation or incurrence of new or additional Guaranteed Obligations.
6.    Obligations Independent.  The obligations of the Guarantors hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations and the obligations of any other guarantor, and a separate action may be brought against a Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty whether or not the other Obligors or any other person or entity is joined as a party.
7.    Subrogation.  No Guarantor shall exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until all of the 


2 
Guaranty (Approval-Based)
ny-1353683 





Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and performed in full and Full Payment of all Obligations under the Loan Documents has occurred.  If any amounts are paid to a Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.  
8.    Termination; Reinstatement.  This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until (i) all Guaranteed Obligations, including without limitation, any amounts payable under this Guaranty, are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and any commitments of the Lenders and Issuing Banks or facilities provided by the Lenders and Issuing Banks with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations are terminated and (ii) the Full Payment of all Obligations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect or be revived, as the case may be, if any payment by or on behalf of any Guarantor or any other Obligor is made, or any Secured Party or any of its Affiliates exercises its right of setoff, in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the applicable Secured Party in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred and whether or not the Secured Parties are in possession of or have released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document.  The obligations of the Guarantors under this paragraph shall survive termination of this Guaranty.  
9.    Subordination.  Without in any way limiting the obligations of the Obligors under the Loan Documents, each Guarantor hereby subordinates the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of the Borrowers owing to such Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including but not limited to any obligation of any Borrower to a Guarantor as subrogee of a Secured Party or resulting from such Guarantor’s performance under this Guaranty, to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations.  If a Secured Party so requests, any such obligation or indebtedness of the Borrowers to the Guarantors shall be enforced and performance received by the Guarantors as trustee for the Secured Parties and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on account of the Guaranteed Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the remaining liability of the Guarantors under this Guaranty.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 9 shall not be deemed to apply to any Restricted Payment to a Guarantor to the extent that such Restricted Payment is permitted to be paid and distributed to a Guarantor in accordance with the Loan Documents.  
10.    Stay of Acceleration.  In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed, in connection with any case commenced by or against any Guarantor or any Borrower under any Debtor Relief Laws or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by such Guarantor immediately upon demand by the Secured Parties.
11.    Expenses.  The Guarantors shall, jointly and severally, pay within ten (10) Business Days of request all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket third-party fees and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) in any way relating to the enforcement or protection of the Secured Parties’ rights under this Guaranty or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including any incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and any incurred in the preservation, protection or enforcement of any rights of the Secured Parties in any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Laws.  The 


3 
Guaranty (Approval-Based)
ny-1353683 





obligations of the Guarantors under this paragraph shall survive the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of this Guaranty.
12.    Miscellaneous.  No provision of this Guaranty may be waived, amended, supplemented or modified, except by a written instrument executed by the Administrative Agent, Required Lenders and the Guarantors.  No failure by any Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or in equity.  The unenforceability or invalidity of any provision of this Guaranty shall not affect the enforceability or validity of any other provision herein.  Unless otherwise agreed by the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Guarantors in writing, this Guaranty is not intended to supersede or otherwise affect any other guaranty now or hereafter given by the Guarantors for the benefit of any Secured Party under the Loan Documents or any term or provision thereof.
13.    Condition of Obligors.  Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has adequate means of, obtaining from the other Obligors such information concerning the financial condition, business and operations of each Obligor as the Guarantors require, and that no Secured Party has any duty, and the Guarantors are not relying on any Secured Party at any time, to disclose to the Guarantors any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of any Obligor or any other guarantor (the Guarantors waiving any duty on the part of the Secured Parties to disclose such information and any defense relating to the failure to provide the same).
14.    Setoff.  If and to the extent any payment is not made when due hereunder, the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender is authorized, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all accounts and deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender to or for the credit or the account of a Guarantor, against any amount so due, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under any Loan Document and although such amount may be owed to a branch or office of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness.  The rights of the Administrative Agent, Issuing Banks and the Lender under this Section 14 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Person may have.  The Administrative Agent, Issuing Banks and the Lenders agree to use reasonable efforts to notify the applicable Guarantor promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that (i) the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application and (ii) none of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any liability in the event of any failure to give such notice.
15.    Representations; Warranties and Covenants.  
(c)    General Representations and Warranties.
