Lender no longer has any obligation or arrangement to provide credit to
Borrower, including under or pursuant to a line of credit), and (2) the payment
of all fees and expenses to be paid by Guarantor pursuant to this
Guaranty.  If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of such
subrogation or contribution rights at any time when all of the Guaranteed

Guarantor of this Guaranty do not and will not (a) violate any provision of any
law, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination, or award
presently in effect applicable to Guarantor, (b) result in a breach of or
constitute a default under any indenture or loan or credit agreement or any
other agreement, lease, or instrument to which Guarantor is a party or by which

12. Remedies.  Lender
shall not, by any act, delay, omission or otherwise, be deemed to have waived
any of its rights or remedies under this Guaranty or otherwise. A waiver by
Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion, shall not be
construed as a ban or waiver of any such right or remedy which Lender would have
had on any future occasion, nor shall Lender be liable for exercising or failing
to exercise any such right or remedy. The rights and remedies of Lender under
this Guaranty are cumulative and, as such, are in addition to any other rights
and remedies available to Lender under law or any other agreements.

     

    Section

attorney-in-fact for Guarantor, with full authority in the place and stead of

amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, nor consent to any
departure by Guarantor from this Guaranty, shall in any event be effective
unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Guarantor and Lender, and then

17. Assignment
and Transfer of Obligations. This Guaranty will bind the estate of
Guarantor as to Guaranteed Obligations created or incurred both before and after
the death or incapacity of Guarantor, whether or not Lender receives notice of
such death or incapacity. This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of Lender and
its successors, transferees and assigns. Guarantor may not transfer or assign
its obligations under this Guaranty. Lender may assign or otherwise transfer all
or a portion of its rights or obligations with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations to any other party, and such other party shall then become vested
with all the benefits in respect of such transferred Guaranteed Obligations
granted to Lender in this Guaranty or otherwise. Guarantor agrees that Lender
can provide information regarding Guarantor to any prospective or actual
successor, transferee or assign.

     

    Section
18. Setoff. Guarantor
agrees that, in addition to, and without limiting, any right of setoff, Lender’s
lien or counterclaim Lender may otherwise have, Lender shall be entitled, at its
option, to offset balances (general or special, time or demand, provisional or
final) held by it for the account of Guarantor, at any of the offices of Lender,
in Dollars or any other currency, against any amount payable by Guarantor to
Lender under this Guaranty which is not paid when demanded (regardless of
whether such balances are then due to Guarantor), in which case Lender shall
promptly notify Guarantor, provided that Lender’s failure to give such notice
shall not affect the validity of such offset.

     

    Section
19. Submission to
Jurisdiction. Guarantor hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of
any federal or state court sitting in New York County in the State of New York
over any action or proceeding arising out of or related to this Guaranty and
agrees with Lender that personal jurisdiction over Guarantor rests with such
courts for purposes of any action on or related to this Guaranty. Guarantor
hereby waives personal service by manual delivery and agrees that service of
process may be made by prepaid certified mail directed to Guarantor at the
address of Guarantor for notices under this Guaranty or at such other address as
may be designated in writing by Guarantor to Lender, and that upon mailing of
such process such service will be effective as if Guarantor was personally
served. Guarantor agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding
shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the
judgment or in any manner provided by law. Guarantor further waives any
objection to venue in any such action or proceeding on the basis of inconvenient
forum. Guarantor agrees that any action on or proceeding brought against Lender
shall only be brought in such courts.

    Section
20. Governing
Law.  This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to its
principles of conflicts of law.

     

    Section
21. Subordination. Once a
demand for payment is made on the Guarantor under this Guaranty Guarantor will
not (1) make any demand for payment of, or take any action to accelerate, any
obligation owed to Guarantor by Borrower, (2) seek to collect payment of, or
enforce any right or remedies against Borrower, any of the obligations owed to
Guarantor by Borrower or any guarantees, credit supports, collateral or other
security related to or supporting any of such obligations, or (3) commence, or
join with any other creditor in commencing, any bankruptcy or similar proceeding
against Borrower. Guarantor also agrees that the payment of all obligations of
Borrower to Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in time and right of
payment in accordance with the terms of this Section to the prior payment in
full (in cash) of the Guaranteed Obligations. In furtherance of such
subordination, (1) to the extent possible, Guarantor will not take or receive
from Borrower any payments, in cash or any other property, by setoff or any
other means, of any or all of the obligations owed to Guarantor by Borrower, or
purchase, redeem, or otherwise acquire any of such obligations, or change the
terms or provisions of any such obligations and (2) if for any reason and under
any circumstance Guarantor receives a payment on such obligation, whether in a
bankruptcy or similar proceeding or otherwise, all such payments or
distributions upon or with respect to such obligations shall be received in
trust for the benefit of Lender, shall be segregated from other funds and
property held by Guarantor and shall be forthwith paid over to Lender in the
same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be applied (in the
case of cash) to, or held as collateral (in the case of securities or other
non-cash property) for, the payment or prepayment of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Guarantor agrees that any subrogation rights Guarantor may acquire as a result
of a payment under this Section may not be exercised until (1) the payment in
full of the Guaranteed Obligations (after Lender no longer has any obligation or
arrangement to provide credit to Borrower, including under or pursuant to a line
of credit), and (2) the payment of all fees and expenses to be paid by Guarantor
pursuant to this Guaranty.

     

    Section
22. Miscellaneous.  This
Guaranty is in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights and
remedies Lender may have by virtue of any other instrument or agreement
previously, contemporaneously or hereafter executed by Guarantor or any other
party or by law or otherwise. If any provision of this Guaranty is contrary to
applicable law, such provision shall be deemed ineffective without invalidating
the remaining provisions of this Guaranty. Titles in this Guaranty are for
convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or
construction of this Guaranty. This Guaranty constitutes the entire agreement
between Guarantor and Lender with respect to the matters covered by this
Guaranty and supercedes all written or oral agreements with respect to such
matters.

    Section
23. WAIVER OF

JURY IN ANY ACTION ON OR RELATED TO THIS GUARANTY.

WITNESS WHEREOF, Guarantor has duly executed and delivered this Guaranty as of
the date of this Guaranty.
