Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.
		

		
			 
		

		
			B.         Lender is the holder of all of Original Lender's right, title and interest in and under the Loan.

			NATURE AND SCOPE OF GUARANTY
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.1       Guaranty of Obligation.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(a)        Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Lender and its successors and assigns the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined below) as and when the same shall be due and payable, whether by lapse of time, by acceleration of maturity or otherwise. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally covenants and agrees that it is liable for the Guaranteed Obligations as a primary obligor.
		

		
			 
		

		
			(b)        As used herein, the term "Guaranteed Obligations" means (i) Borrower's Recourse Liabilities and (ii) from and after the date that any Springing Recourse Event occurs, payment of all of the Obligations.
		

		
			(c)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Guaranty or in any of the other Loan Documents, Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any right which Lender may have under Section 506(a), 506(b), 111l(b) or any other provisions of the Bankruptcy Code to file a claim for the full amount of the Obligations or to require that all collateral shall continue to secure all of the Obligations owing to Lender in accordance with the Loan Documents.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.2 Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty is an irrevocable, absolute, continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not a guaranty of collection.  This Guaranty may not be revoked by any Guarantor and shall continue to be effective with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising or created after any attempted revocation by any Guarantor and after (if such Guarantor is a natural person) such Guarantor's death (in which event this Guaranty shall be binding upon such Guarantor's estate and such Guarantor's legal representatives and heirs). The fact that at any time or from time to time the Guaranteed Obligations may be increased or reduced shall not release or discharge the obligation of any Guarantor to Lender with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty may be enforced by Lender and any subsequent holder of the Note and shall not be discharged by the assignment or negotiation of all or part of the Note.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.3 Guaranteed Obligations Not Reduced by Offset. The Guaranteed Obligations and the liabilities and obligations of Guarantors to Lender hereunder shall not be reduced, discharged or released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense of Borrower or any other party against Lender or against payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether such offset, claim or defense arises in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations (or the transactions creating the Guaranteed Obligations) or otherwise.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.4 Payment By Guarantors. If all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be punctually paid when due, whether at demand, maturity, acceleration or otherwise, Guarantors shall, within ten (10) days after written demand by Lender and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, notice of non-payment, notice of intention to accelerate the maturity, notice of acceleration of the maturity or any other notice whatsoever, all such
		

		
			 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			 

		

		

		
			 
		

		
			notices being hereby waived by Guarantors, pay in lawful money of the United States of America, the amount due on the Guaranteed Obligations to Lender at Lender's address as set forth herein. Such demand(s) may be made at any time coincident with or after the time for payment of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations and may be made from time to time with respect to the same or different items of Guaranteed Obligations. Such demand shall be deemed made, given and received in accordance with the notice provisions hereof.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.5 No Duty To Pursue Others.  It shall not be necessary  for Lender (and each Guarantor hereby waives any rights which such Guarantor may have to require Lender), in order to enforce the obligations of Guarantors hereunder, first to (i) institute suit or exhaust its remedies against Borrower or others liable on the Loan or the Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person, (ii) enforce Lender's rights against any collateral which shall ever have been given to secure the Loan, (iii) enforce Lender's rights against any other guarantors of the Guaranteed Obligations, (iv) join Borrower or any others liable on the Guaranteed Obligations in any action seeking to enforce this Guaranty, (v) exhaust any remedies available to Lender against any collateral which shall ever have been given to secure the Loan, or (vi) resort to any other means of obtaining payment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Lender shall not be required to mitigate damages or take any other action to reduce, collect or enforce the Guaranteed Obligations.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.6 Waivers. Each Guarantor agrees to the provisions of the Loan Documents and hereby waives notice of (i) any loans or advances made by Lender to Borrower, (ii)  acceptance of this Guaranty, (iii) any amendment or extension of the Note, the Mortgage, the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iv) the execution and delivery by Borrower and Lender of any other loan or credit agreement or of Borrower's execution and delivery of any promissory note or other document arising under the Loan Documents or in connection with the Property, (v) the occurrence of (A) any breach by Borrower of any of the terms or conditions of the Loan Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or (B) an Event of Default, (vi) Lender's transfer or disposition of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, (vii) the sale or foreclosure (or the posting or advertising for the sale or foreclosure) of any collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, (viii) protest, proof of non-payment or default by Borrower, or (ix) any other action at any time taken or omitted by Lender and, generally, all demands and notices of every kind in connection with this Guaranty, the Loan Documents, any documents or agreements evidencing, securing or relating to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and/or the obligations hereby guaranteed.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.7 Payment of Expenses.  In the event that any Guarantor shall breach or fail to timely perform any provisions of this Guaranty, Guarantors shall, immediately upon demand by Lender, pay Lender all costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Lender in the enforcement hereof or the preservation of Lender's rights hereunder, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate from the date requested by Lender until the date of payment to Lender. The covenant contained in this Section shall survive the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 1.8 Effect of Bankruptcy. In the event that pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership or other debtor relief law or any judgment, order or decision thereunder, Lender must rescind or restore any payment or any part thereof received by
		

		
			 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			 

		

		

		
			 
		

		
			Lender in satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations, as set forth herein, any prior release or discharge from the terms of this Guaranty given to Guarantors by Lender shall be without effect and this Guaranty shall remain (or shall be reinstated to be) in full force and effect. It is the intention of Borrower and Guarantors that Guarantors' obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by Guarantors' performance of such obligations and then only to the extent of such performance.
		

		
			Section 1.9 Waiver of Subrogation, Reimbursement and Contribution. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, releases and abrogates any and all rights it may now or hereafter have under any agreement, at law or in equity (including, without limitation, any law subrogating Guarantors to the rights of Lender), to assert any claim against or seek contribution, indemnification or any other form of reimbursement from Borrower or any other party liable for the payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations for any payment made by Guarantors under or in connection with this Guaranty or otherwise.

Each Guarantor is familiar with, and has independently reviewed books and records regarding, the financial condition of Borrower and is familiar with the value of any and all collateral intended to be created as security for the payment of the Note or Guaranteed Obligations; however, such Guarantor is not relying on such financial condition or the collateral as an inducement to enter into this Guaranty.
		

		
			 
		

		
			
		

		
			

		 

		

			 

		

		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 3.3 No Representation By Lender.  Neither Lender nor any other party has made any representation, warranty or statement to any Guarantor in order to induce such Guarantor to execute this Guaranty.

			SUBORDINATION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 4.1 Subordination of All Guarantor Claims. As used herein, the term "Guarantor Claims" shall mean all debts and liabilities of Borrower to Guarantors, whether such debts and liabilities now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, and whether the obligations of Borrower thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or liabilities be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the Person or Persons in whose favor such debts or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be, created, or the manner in which they have been, or may hereafter be, acquired by Guarantors. The Guarantor Claims shall include, without limitation, all rights and claims of Guarantors against Borrower (arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise) as a result of Guarantors' payment of all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations. So long as any portion of the Obligations or the  Guaranteed Obligations remain outstanding, no Guarantor shall receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from Borrower or any other Person any amount upon the Guarantor Claims.

Should Lender receive, for application against the Guaranteed Obligations, any dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to any Guarantor and which, as between Borrower and Guarantors, shall constitute a credit against the Guarantor Claims, then, upon payment to Lender in full of the Obligations and the Guaranteed Obligations, such Guarantor shall become subrogated to the rights of Lender to the extent that such payments to Lender on the Guarantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Guaranteed Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Guaranteed Obligations which would have been unpaid if Lender had not received dividends or payments upon the Guarantor Claims.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 4.3 Payments Held in Trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Guaranty, in the event that any Guarantor should receive any funds, payments, claims and/or distributions which are prohibited by this Guaranty, such Guarantor agrees to hold in trust for Lender an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims and/or distributions so received, and agrees that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims and/or distributions so received except to pay such funds, payments, claims and/or distributions promptly to Lender, and such Guarantor covenants promptly to pay the same to Lender.
		

		
			 
		

		
			Section 4.4 Liens Subordinate. Each Guarantor agrees that any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower's assets securing payment of the Guarantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower's assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of Guarantors or Lender presently exist or are hereafter created or attach.  Without  the prior written consent of Lender, no Guarantor shall (i) exercise or enforce any creditor's rights it may have against Borrower, or (ii) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceedings Judicial or otherwise, including, without limitation, the commencement of, or the joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor's relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any liens, mortgages, deeds of trust, security interests, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances on the assets of Borrower held by any Guarantor.

			(a)        Each Indemnitor hereby waives and relinquishes (i) any right or claim of right to cause a marshaling of any Indemnitor' s assets or to cause Indemnitee or any other Indemnified Party to proceed against any of the security for the Loan before proceeding under this Agreement against any Indemnitor; (ii) all rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to indemnitors or guarantors generally, including any rights of subrogation which any Indemnitor may have, provided that the indemnity provided for hereunder shall neither be contingent upon the existence of any such rights of subrogation nor subject to any claims or defenses whatsoever which may be asserted in connection with the enforcement or attempted enforcement of such subrogation rights, including, without limitation, any claim that such subrogation rights were abrogated by any acts of Indemnitee or any other Indemnified Party; (iii) the right to assert a counterclaim, other than a mandatory or compulsory counterclaim, in any action or proceeding brought against or by Indemnitee or any other Indemnified Party; (iv) notice of  acceptance hereof and of any action taken or omitted in reliance hereon; (v) presentment for payment, demand of payment, protest or notice of nonpayment or failure to perform or observe, or other proof, or notice or demand; and (vi) all homestead exemption rights against the obligations hereunder and the benefits of any statutes of limitations or repose.

THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY BY EACH INDEMNITOR AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS INDIVIDUALLY EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE ACCRUE. THE INDEMNIFIED PARTIES ARE HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY EACH INDEMNITOR.
		

		
			12.       Subrogation.

			(c)        to the best of such Indemnitor' s knowledge, there is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or threatened against it which, either in any one instance or in the aggregate, may result in any material adverse change in the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of such Indemnitor, or in any material impairment of the right or ability of such Indemnitor to carry on its business substantially as now conducted, or in any material liability on the part of such Indemnitor, or which would draw into question the validity of this Agreement or of any action taken or to be taken in connection with the obligations of such Indemnitor contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of such Indemnitor to perform under the terms of this Agreement;
