(3)    Under the existing terms of the Guaranty, the Guaranty shall terminate and CSC, as the Guarantor, shall be fully and finally released from all of its obligations thereunder, upon the date (the “Guarantee Release Date”) on which the Borrower shall have been (or simultaneously shall be) substituted for the Guarantor as the borrower, issuer or guarantor, as the case may be, in respect of all Indebtedness under the agreements set forth in Schedule I to the Guaranty, the Guarantor’s obligations in respect of such Indebtedness shall have been (or simultaneously shall be) released or such Indebtedness shall have been (or simultaneously shall be) repaid in full.
