the Guarantor and without releasing the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder. 
  
 5. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall not be released by Landlord’s receipt, application or release of security given for the performance and observance of covenants and conditions in the Lease
contained on Tenant’s part to be performed or observed; nor by any modification of the Lease, but in case of any such modification, the liability of the Guarantor shall be deemed modified in accordance with the terms of any such modification of
the Lease.

Tenant or any other party of any of the agreements, covenants or conditions contained in the Lease or this Guaranty;

 (e) the doing or the omission of any

Landlord in or by the Lease or this Guaranty, or any action on the part of Landlord granting indulgence or extension in any form whatsoever; 
  
 (g) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale of all or substantially all of the assets, marshaling of assets and liabilities,
receivership, conservatorship, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment of, or other similar proceeding affecting Tenant or Guarantor or any of its assets; or

covenants, terms or conditions contained in the Lease or this Guaranty by operation of law; or

thereby granted. 
  
 9. The Guarantor represents and warrants to

 (f) All consents, approvals, filings and registrations with or of any court, governmental authority or regulatory body or any political subdivision thereof required in connection with the execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor
of the Guaranty have been obtained or made; and the execution, delivery and performance by the Guarantor of this Guaranty will not conflict with or result in a violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, any law or

 3 








 (g) The execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty constitutes private and commercial acts
rather than public or governmental acts. 
  
 10. Each notice and
other communication under this Guaranty shall be in writing. Each notice, communication or document to be delivered to any party under this Guaranty shall be sent by hand delivery or facsimile transmission (promptly confirmed by courier) to it at
the address herein contained, and marked for the attention of the person (if any), from time to time designated by such party for the purpose of this Guaranty. The initial address and person (if any) so designated by each party are set out opposite

States federal or state court sitting in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such
Proceeding brought in such court and any claim that any such Proceeding brought in such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Guarantor hereby agrees that a final, nonappealable judgment in any such Proceeding brought in such court
shall be conclusive and binding upon it. 
  
 12. Each reference
herein to the Landlord shall be deemed to include its successors and assigns, in whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty shall also inure. Each reference herein to the Guarantor shall be deemed to include any permitted successors and assigns of
the Guarantor (including any successor entity resulting from a merger or consolidation), in whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty shall also inure and all of whom shall be bound by the provisions of this Guaranty. In connection therewith, the
Guarantor shall execute such reaffirmation of this Guaranty as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is hereby agreed that Guarantor shall have no rights to transfer or assign this Guaranty
by operation of law or otherwise, without the express written consent of the Landlord, which consent may be withheld by the Landlord in the Landlord’s sole discretion, and any such transfer or assignment made without the Landlord’s consent
shall be null and void and shall be deemed a default hereunder. 
  
  
 13. No delay on the part of the Landlord in exercising any rights hereunder or failure to exercise the same shall operate as a waiver of such rights; no
notice to or demand on the Guarantor shall be deemed to be a waiver of the obligation of the Guarantor or of the right of the Landlord to take further action without notice or demand as provided herein; nor in any event shall any modification or
waiver of the provisions of this Guaranty be effective unless in writing nor shall any such waiver be applicable except in the specific instance for which given.

 14. In the event of a default under any of the terms of the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to
proceed directly and immediately against the Guarantor and such proceeding is not to be deemed an irrevocable election of remedies. 
  
 15. This Guaranty is, and shall be deemed to be entered into, under and pursuant to the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and shall be in all
respects governed, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of said Commonwealth; and no defense given or allowed by the laws of any other state or country shall be interposed in any action or proceeding hereon unless such defense
is also given or allowed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. 
  
 16. Guarantor shall furnish to Landlord, within one hundred twenty (120) days of the end of each fiscal year of Tenant during the Term of the Lease, an audited consolidated balance sheet of Guarantor as of the end of
such fiscal year and an audited consolidated statement of income and consolidated cash flow of Guarantor for such fiscal year, setting forth in each case, in comparative form, the corresponding figures for the preceding fiscal year, prepared in
accordance with GAAP, and a copy of its financial statements for such year certified by an appropriate officer of Guarantor and audited by an independent certified public accountant. Landlord may provide such financial statements to its consultants,
lenders and investors, but otherwise shall not provide the financial statements to third parties without the prior consent of Guarantor. 
  
 17. This instrument may not be changed, modified, discharged or terminated orally or in any manner other than by an agreement in writing signed by the
Guarantor and the Landlord. 
  
 18. If any tern or provision of
this. Guaranty or the application thereof to any person or circumstances shall, to any extent, be invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Guaranty, or the application of such term or provision to persons or circumstances other than those to
which it is held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and all other terms and provisions of this Guaranty shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
  
 19. THE GUARANTOR AND THE LANDLORD AGREE THAT ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING,
WHETHER CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM, BROUGHT BY THE LANDLORD OR THE GUARANTOR ON OR WITH RESPECT TO THIS GUARANTY OR THE LEASE, SHALL BE TRIED ONLY BY A COURT AND NOT BY A JURY. THE LANDLORD AND THE GUARANTOR EACH HEREBY KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND
INTENTIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. 
  
 20. Landlord has previously received a Guaranty of the Lease from GHV (the “GHV Guaranty”). Pursuant to the terms of the Third Amendment, GHV shall be released as a guarantor and the GHV Guaranty shall
terminate upon the occurrence of certain events and transactions. Landlord, for itself and its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, the “ET Entities”) hereby agree that so long as the GHV Guaranty remains in effect, the ET
Entities shall not file any claim, action or suit against Guarantor under this Guaranty nor seek any recovery under this Guaranty but the foregoing shall rot otherwise impair the enforceability of this Guaranty. Upon the release of GHV under the GHV
Guaranty, Landlord and the ET Entities, 
  

 5 








 
without the necessity for any further action or the execution of any further documents by Guarantor or any other party, shall have full recourse against
Guarantor under this Guaranty and the right to file any claim, action or suit against Guarantor hereunder and Guarantor shall be fully liable hereunder, whether such claim, action or suit arose prior to or subsequent to the release of GHV under the
GHV Guaranty.
