The 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. The Guarantor further waives any objection to venue in any such action or proceeding on the basis of inconvenient forum. The Guarantor
agrees that any action on or proceeding brought against the 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 Florida 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, the Guarantor will not (1) make any demand for payment of, or take any action to accelerate, any obligation owed to the Guarantor by the Borrower, (2) seek to collect payment

The Guarantor also agrees that the payment of all obligations of the Borrower to the Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in time and right of payment

In furtherance of such subordination, (1) to the extent possible, the Guarantor will not take or receive from the Borrower any payments, in cash or any other property, by setoff or any other means, of any or all of the obligations owed to the Guarantor by the 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 the 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 the Lender, shall be segregated from other funds and property held by the Guarantor and shall be forthwith paid over to the 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.





Section 22. Miscellaneous. This Guaranty is in addition to and not in limitation of any other rights and remedies the Lender may have by virtue of any other instrument or agreement previously, contemporaneously or hereafter executed by the 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 the Guarantor and the Lender with respect to the matters covered by this Guaranty and supersedes all written or oral agreements with
respect to such matters.
