 (ii) Each
Grantor will, except as otherwise provided in this subsection (f), continue to collect, at its own expense, all amounts due or to become due under the Accounts. In connection with such collections, such Grantor may (and, at the Collateral
Agent’s direction, will) take such action as such Grantor or the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or advisable to enforce collection or performance of the Accounts; provided, however, that the Collateral Agent shall
have the right at any time, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to notify the account debtors or obligors under any Accounts of the assignment of such Accounts to the Collateral Agent and to direct such account
debtors or obligors to make payment of all amounts due or to become due to such Grantor thereunder directly to the Collateral Agent or its designated agent and, upon such notification and at the expense of such Grantor and to the extent permitted by
law, to enforce collection of any such Accounts and to adjust, settle or compromise the amount or payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Grantor might have done. After receipt by a Grantor of a notice from the Collateral
Agent that the Collateral Agent has notified, intends to notify, or has enforced or intends to enforce a Grantor’s rights against the account debtors or obligors under any Accounts as referred to in the proviso to the immediately preceding
sentence, (A) all amounts and proceeds (including Instruments) received by such Grantor in respect of the Accounts shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be segregated from other funds of such Grantor and
shall be forthwith paid over to the Collateral Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement) to be held as cash collateral and applied as specified in Section 7(b) hereof, and (B) such Grantor will not adjust, settle
or compromise the amount or payment of any Account or release wholly or partly any account debtor or obligor thereof or allow any credit or discount thereon. In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the
Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) direct any or all of the banks and 

  

 -11- 

 
financial institutions with which such Grantor either maintains a Deposit Account or a lockbox or deposits the proceeds of any Accounts to send immediately
to the Collateral Agent by wire transfer (to such account as the Collateral Agent shall specify, or in such other manner as the Collateral Agent shall direct) all or a portion of such securities, cash, investments and other items held by such
institution. Any such securities, cash, investments and other items so received by the Collateral Agent shall (in the sole and absolute discretion of the Collateral Agent) be held as additional Collateral for the Obligations or distributed in
accordance with Section 7 hereof. 
  
 (iii) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any breach or default under any material License by any party thereto other than a Grantor, the Grantor party thereto will, promptly after obtaining knowledge thereof, give the
Collateral Agent written notice of the nature and duration thereof, specifying what action, if any, it has taken and proposes to take with respect thereto and thereafter will take reasonable steps as Grantor determines in its reasonable business
judgment to protect and preserve its rights and remedies in respect of such breach or default, or will obtain or acquire an appropriate substitute License. 
  
 (iv) Each Grantor will, at its expense, promptly deliver to the Collateral Agent a copy of each notice or other communication received by
it by which any other party to any material License hereto purports to exercise any of its rights or affect any of its obligations thereunder, together with a copy of any reply by such Grantor thereto. 
  
 (v) Each Grantor will exercise promptly and diligently, as
determined by such Grantor in its reasonable business judgment, each and every right which it may have under each material License (other than any right of termination) and will duly perform and observe in all respects all of its obligations under
each material License and will take all action reasonably necessary to maintain such Licenses in full force and effect. 
  
 (g) Transfers and Other Liens. 
  
 (i) No Grantor will sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise), lease, license, exchange or otherwise transfer or dispose of any of
the Collateral, except (A) Inventory in the ordinary course of business, (B) worn-out, surplus or obsolete assets not necessary to the business, (C) non-exclusive Licenses, leases and similar arrangements for the use of the property of Grantor
granted in the ordinary course of business (including initiating a licensing program); (D) any Grantor may merge or consolidate with or into any other Grantor (so long as in any such merger or consolidation involving AVNX, AVNX is the surviving
corporation) and provided that the Collateral Agent’s rights in any Collateral, including, without limitation, the existence, perfection and priority of any Lien thereon, are not adversely affected by such merger or consolidation; (E) transfers
constituting payment of accounts payable and other operating expenses and similar payments in the ordinary course of business; (F) exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense or take other similar actions with respect to the Intellectual
Property in the ordinary course of its business; (G) the granting of Permitted Liens; and (H) payment of the purchase price under the Purchase and Sale Agreements by and between AVNX and 40915 Encyclopedia Circle LLC and 40949 Encyclopedia Circle
LLC, respectively, (collectively, “ECL”) with respect to the purchase by AVNX of the “Property” as defined therein, copies of which have been provided to the Collateral Agent, any disposition of the Property in connection with a
sale and leaseback transaction, or any cash payments made to ECL 

  

 -12- 

 
or third parties in connection with the renegotiation of the current Leases pertaining to the Property not to exceed an amount acceptable to the Collateral
Agent; and (I) sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of Equipment and Inventory as deemed necessary or desirable by any Grantor in connection with the strategy of AVNX or any Grantor of using contract manufacturers for the manufacture
of the products of AVNX or such Grantor; provided that such contract manufacturer execute and deliver to Agent a waiver and acknowledgment of security interest in form and substance satisfactory to Agent. 
  
 (ii) No Grantor will create, suffer to exist or grant any
Lien upon or with respect to any Collateral other than a Permitted Lien. 
  
 (h) Intellectual Property. 
  
 (i) If applicable, each Grantor shall, upon the Collateral Agent’s written request, duly execute and delivered the applicable Grant of Security in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. Each Grantor
(either itself or through licensees) will, and will cause each licensee thereof to, take all action necessary to maintain the material Intellectual Property in full force and effect, including, without limitation, using the proper statutory notices
and markings and using the Trademarks on each applicable trademark class of goods in order to so maintain the Trademarks in full force and free from any claim of abandonment for non-use, and such Grantor will not (nor permit any licensee thereof to)
do any act or knowingly omit to do any act whereby any Intellectual Property may become invalidated; provided, however, that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such Grantor shall not have an obligation to
use or to maintain any non-material Intellectual Property (A) that relates solely to any product or work, that has been, or is in the process of being, discontinued, abandoned or terminated, (B) that is being replaced with Intellectual Property
substantially similar to the Intellectual Property that may be abandoned or otherwise become invalid, so long as the failure to use or maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially adversely affect the validity of such replacement
Intellectual Property and so long as such replacement Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien created by this Agreement or (C) that is substantially the same as another Intellectual Property that is in full force, so long the failure to use or
maintain such Intellectual Property does not materially adversely affect the validity of such replacement Intellectual Property and so long as such other Intellectual Property is subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement.
Each Grantor will cause to be taken all necessary steps in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or political subdivision
thereof to maintain each registration of the material Intellectual Property (other than the Intellectual Property described in the proviso to the immediately preceding sentence), including, without limitation, filing of renewals, affidavits of use,
affidavits of incontestability and opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings and payment of maintenance fees, filing fees, taxes or other governmental fees. If any material Intellectual Property (other than Intellectual Property
described in the proviso to the first sentence of subsection (i) of this clause (h)) is infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, such Grantor shall (x) upon learning of such infringement,
misappropriation, dilution or other violation, promptly notify the Collateral Agent and (y) to the extent such Grantor shall deem appropriate under the circumstances, promptly sue for infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other violation, seek
injunctive relief where appropriate and recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation, dilution or other 

  

 -13- 

 
violation, or take such other actions as such Grantor shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property. Each Grantor
shall furnish to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon its request statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Intellectual Property and Licenses and such other reports in connection with the Intellectual Property and
Licenses as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail and promptly upon reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, following receipt by the Collateral Agent of any such statements, schedules or reports, such Grantor
shall modify this Agreement by amending Schedule II hereto, as the case may be, to include any Intellectual Property which becomes part of the Collateral under this Agreement and shall execute and authenticate such documents and do such acts
as shall be necessary or, in the judgment of the Collateral Agent, desirable to subject such Intellectual Property and Licenses to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, such Grantor may not abandon or otherwise permit any Intellectual Property to become invalid without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent, and if any Intellectual Property is
infringed, misappropriated, diluted or otherwise violated in any material respect by a third party, such Grantor will take such action as the Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property.

  
 (ii) In the event a Grantor shall, either
itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, file an application for the registration of any Trademark or Copyright or the issuance of any Patent with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright
Office, as applicable, or in any similar office or agency of the United States or any country or any political subdivision thereof, it shall promptly give the Collateral Agent written notice thereof. Upon request of the Collateral Agent, each
Grantor shall execute, authenticate and deliver any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Collateral Agent’s security interest hereunder in such Intellectual
Property and the General Intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby, and such Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent its attorney-in-fact to execute and/or authenticate and file all such writings for the foregoing
purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed, and such power (being coupled with an interest) shall be irrevocable until the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations in full and the termination of
each of the Transaction Documents. 
  
 (i) Deposit, Commodities
and Securities Accounts. Upon the Collateral Agent’s written request (it being understood that such request shall be deemed to have already been made with respect to the Cash Collateral Account) each Grantor shall cause each bank and other
financial institution with an account referred to in Schedule IV hereto to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a control agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, duly executed by such Grantor
and such bank or financial institution, or enter into other arrangements in form and substance satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, pursuant to which such institution shall irrevocably agree, inter alia, that (i) it will comply at any
time with the instructions originated by the Collateral Agent to such bank or financial institution directing the disposition of cash, Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items from time to time credited to such account,
without further consent of such Grantor, which instructions the Collateral Agent will not give to such bank or other financial institution in the absence of a continuing Event of Default, (ii) all cash, Commodity Contracts, securities, 

  

 -14- 

 
Investment Property and other items of such Grantor deposited with such institution shall be subject to a perfected, first priority security interest in
favor of the Collateral Agent, (iii) any right of set off, banker’s Lien or other similar Lien, security interest or encumbrance shall be fully subordinated to the Collateral Agent, subject to certain exceptions, and (iv) upon receipt of
written notice from the Collateral Agent during the continuance of an Event of Default, such bank or financial institution shall immediately send to the Collateral Agent by wire transfer (to such account as the Collateral Agent shall specify, or in
such other manner as the Collateral Agent shall direct) all such cash, the value of any Commodity Contracts, securities, Investment Property and other items held by it. Without the prior written notice to the Collateral Agent, such Grantor shall not
make or maintain any Deposit Account, Commodity Account or Securities Account except for the accounts set forth in Schedule IV hereto. The provisions of this paragraph 5(i) shall not apply to (i) Deposit Accounts for which the Collateral
Agent is the depositary and (ii) Deposit Accounts specially and exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of a Grantor’s salaried employees. 
  
 (j) Motor Vehicles. 
  
 (i) Upon the Collateral Agent’s written request, each
Grantor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent originals of the certificates of title or ownership for all motor vehicles owned by it with the Collateral Agent listed as lienholder, for the benefit of the Buyers. 
  
 (ii) Each Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as
its attorney-in-fact, effective the date hereof and terminating upon the termination of this Agreement, for the purpose of (A) executing on behalf of such Grantor title or ownership applications for filing with appropriate state agencies to enable
motor vehicles now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor to be retitled and the Collateral Agent listed as lienholder thereof, (B) filing such applications with such state agencies, and (C) executing such other documents and instruments on
behalf of, and taking such other action in the name of, such Grantor as the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof (including, without limitation, for the purpose of creating in favor of the Collateral
Agent a perfected Lien on the motor vehicles and exercising the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder). This appointment as attorney-in-fact is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until all of the Obligations (other than
inchoate indemnity obligations) are indefeasibly paid in full in cash and after all Transaction Documents have been terminated. 
  
 (iii) Any certificates of title or ownership delivered pursuant to the terms hereof shall be accompanied by odometer statements for each
motor vehicle covered thereby. 
  
 (iv) So long
as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the request of such Grantor, the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to such Grantor such instruments as such Grantor shall reasonably request to remove the notation of the
Collateral Agent as lienholder on any certificate of title for any motor vehicle; provided, however, that any such instruments shall be delivered, and the release effective, only upon receipt by the Collateral Agent of a certificate
from such Grantor stating that such motor vehicle is to be sold or has suffered a casualty loss (with title thereto passing to the casualty insurance 

  

 -15- 

 
company therefor in settlement of the claim for such loss) and the amount that such Grantor will receive as sale proceeds or insurance proceeds. Any proceeds
of such sale or casualty loss shall be paid to the Collateral Agent hereunder immediately upon receipt, to be applied to the Obligations then outstanding. 
  
 (k) Control. Each Grantor hereby agrees to take any or all action that may be necessary or desirable or that the Collateral Agent may reasonably
request in order for the Collateral Agent to obtain control in accordance with Sections 9-105 – 9-107 of the Code with respect to the following Collateral: (i) Electronic Chattel Paper, (ii) Investment Property, and (iii) Letter-of-Credit
Rights. 
  
 (l) Inspection and Reporting. Each Grantor
shall permit the Collateral Agent, or any agent or representatives thereof or such professionals or other Persons as the Collateral Agent may designate, during business hours and upon reasonable prior notice in the absence of an Event of Default,
and not more than once a year in the absence of an Event of Default, (i) to examine and make copies of and abstracts from such Grantor’s records and books of account, (ii) to visit and inspect its properties, (iii) to verify materials, leases,
Instruments, Accounts, Inventory and other assets of such Grantor from time to time, (iii) to conduct audits, physical counts, appraisals and/or valuations, examinations at the locations of such Grantor. Each Grantor shall also permit the Collateral
Agent, or any agent or representatives thereof or such professionals or other Persons as the Collateral Agent may designate to discuss such Grantor’s affairs, finances and accounts with any of its directors, officers, managerial employees,
independent accountants or any of its other representatives. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5(l), no Grantor will be required to disclose, permit the inspection, examination or making of extracts, or discussion of, any
document, information or other matter that (i) constitutes non-financial trade secrets or non-financial proprietary information, (ii) in respect of which disclosure to the Collateral Agent (or its designated representative) is then prohibited by
applicable law, rule or regulation or any agreement binding on Grantor or (iii) is subject to attorney-client or similar privilege or constitutes attorney work product. 
  
 (m) Future Subsidiaries. If any Grantor shall hereafter create or acquire any Subsidiary formed under the laws of the
United States or a State thereof, simultaneously with the creation of acquisition of such Subsidiary, such Grantor shall cause such Subsidiary to become a party to this Agreement as an additional “Grantor” hereunder, and to duly execute
and deliver a guaranty of the Obligations in favor of the Collateral agent in form and substance substantially identical to the Guaranty, and to duly execute and/or deliver such opinions of counsel and other documents, in form and substance
acceptable to the Collateral Agent, as the Collateral Agent shall reasonably request with respect thereto.  
  
 SECTION 6. Additional Provisions Concerning the Collateral. 
  
 (a) Each Grantor hereby (i) authorizes the Collateral Agent to file one or more Uniform Commercial Code financing or
continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relating to the Collateral and (ii) ratifies such authorization to the extent that the Collateral Agent has filed any such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto, prior to the
date hereof. A photocopy or other reproduction of this Agreement or any financing statement 

  

 -16- 

 
covering the Collateral or any part thereof shall be sufficient as a financing statement where permitted by law. 
  
 (b) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as its
attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or otherwise, from time to time in the Collateral Agent’s discretion, so long as an Event of Default shall have occurred and
is continuing, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement (subject to the rights of such Grantor under Section 5 hereof), including,
without limitation, (i) to obtain and adjust insurance required to be paid to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 5(e) hereof, (ii) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compound, receive and give acquittance and receipts for moneys
due and to become due under or in respect of any Collateral, (iii) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents and chattel paper in connection with clause (i) or (ii) above, (iv) to file any claims or take any action
or institute any proceedings which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers with respect to any Collateral, and (v) to execute
assignments, licenses and other documents to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers with respect to any Collateral. This power is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable until all of the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in
full in cash. 
  
 (c) For the purpose of enabling the Collateral
Agent to exercise rights and remedies hereunder, at such time as the Collateral Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, and for no other purpose, each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent, to the extent
assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, assign, license or sublicense any Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor,
wherever the same may be located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, but subject to the provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement that limit the right of such Grantor to dispose of its property and Section 5(h) hereof, so long as no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, such Grantor may exploit, use, enjoy, protect, license, sublicense, assign, sell, dispose of or take other actions with respect to the Intellectual Property in the ordinary course of its business. In furtherance of the
foregoing, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall from time to time, upon the request of a Grantor, execute and deliver any instruments, certificates or other documents, in the form so requested,
which such Grantor shall have certified are appropriate (in such Grantor’s judgment) to allow it to take any action permitted above (including relinquishment of the license provided pursuant to this clause (c) as to any Intellectual Property).
Further, upon the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations), the Collateral Agent (subject to Section 10(e) hereof) shall release and reassign to such Grantor all of the
Collateral Agent’s right, title and interest in and to the Intellectual Property, and the Licenses, all without recourse, representation or warranty whatsoever. The exercise of rights and remedies hereunder by the Collateral Agent shall not
terminate the rights of the holders of any licenses or sublicenses theretofore granted by such Grantor in accordance with the second sentence of this clause (c). Each Grantor hereby releases the Collateral Agent from any claims, causes of action and

  

 -17- 

 
demands at any time arising out of or with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by the Collateral Agent under the powers of attorney granted
herein other than actions taken or omitted to be taken through the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final determination of a court of competent jurisdiction. 
  
 (d) If a Grantor fails to perform any agreement contained herein, the
Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement or obligation, in the name of such Grantor or the Collateral Agent, and the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by such
Grantor pursuant to Section 8 hereof and shall be secured by the Collateral. 
  
 (e) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Except for the safe custody of any
Collateral in its possession and the accounting for moneys actually received by it hereunder, the Collateral Agent shall have no duty as to any Collateral or as to the taking of any necessary steps to preserve rights against prior parties or any
other rights pertaining to any Collateral. 
  
 (f) Anything herein
to the contrary notwithstanding (i) each Grantor shall remain liable under the Licenses and otherwise with respect to any of the Collateral to the extent set forth therein to perform all of its obligations thereunder to the same extent as if this
Agreement had not been executed, (ii) the exercise by the Collateral Agent of any of its rights hereunder shall not release such Grantor from any of its obligations under the Licenses or otherwise in respect of the Collateral, and (iii) the
Collateral Agent shall not have any obligation or liability by reason of this Agreement under the Licenses or with respect to any of the other Collateral, nor shall the Collateral Agent be obligated to perform any of the obligations or duties of
such Grantor thereunder or to take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 7. Remedies Upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing: 
  
 (a) The Collateral Agent may exercise in respect of the Collateral, in
addition to any other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all of the rights and remedies of a secured party upon default under the Code (whether or not the Code applies to the affected Collateral), and also may (i)
take absolute control of the Collateral, including, without limitation, transfer into the Collateral Agent’s name or into the name of its nominee or nominees (to the extent the Collateral Agent has not theretofore done so) and thereafter
receive, for the benefit of the Collateral Agent, all payments made thereon, give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect thereof and otherwise act with respect thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof, (ii) require each
Grantor to, and each Grantor hereby agrees that it will at its expense and upon request of the Collateral Agent forthwith, assemble all or part of its respective Collateral as directed by the Collateral Agent and make it available to the Collateral
Agent at a place or places to be designated by the Collateral Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties, and the Collateral Agent may enter into and occupy any premises owned or leased by such Grantor where the Collateral or any part
thereof is located or assembled for a reasonable period in order to effectuate the Collateral Agent’s rights and remedies hereunder or 

  

 -18- 

 
under law, without obligation to such Grantor in respect of such occupation, and (iii) without notice except as specified below and without any obligation to
prepare or process the Collateral for sale, (A) sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at
such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable and/or (B) lease, license or dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof upon such terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially
reasonable. Each Grantor agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or any other disposition of its respective Collateral shall be required by law, at least ten (10) days’ notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or the
time after which any private sale or other disposition of its respective Collateral is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of any Collateral
regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and
place to which it was so adjourned. Each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent and the Buyers arising by reason of the fact that the price at which its respective Collateral may have been sold at a private sale was less than
the price which might have been obtained at a public sale or was less than the aggregate amount of the Obligations, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree, and waives
all rights that such Grantor may have to require that all or any part of such Collateral be marshalled upon any sale (public or private) thereof. Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that (i) any such sale of its respective Collateral by the Collateral
Agent shall be made without warranty, (ii) the Collateral Agent may specifically disclaim any warranties of title, possession, quiet enjoyment or the like, and (iii) such actions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above shall not adversely effect the
commercial reasonableness of any such sale of Collateral. In addition to the foregoing, (1) upon written notice to any Grantor from the Collateral Agent, such Grantor shall cease any use of the Intellectual Property or any trademark, patent or
copyright similar thereto for any purpose described in such notice; (2) the Collateral Agent may, at any time and from time to time, upon 10 days’ prior notice to such Grantor, license, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an
exclusive or non-exclusive basis, any of the Intellectual Property, throughout the universe for such term or terms, on such conditions, and in such manner, as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole discretion determine; and (3) the Collateral Agent
may, at any time, pursuant to the authority granted in Section 6 hereof (such authority being effective upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default), execute and deliver on behalf of such Grantor, one or more
instruments of assignment of the Intellectual Property (or any application or registration thereof), in form suitable for filing, recording or registration in any country. 
  
 (b) Any cash held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral and all Cash Proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of
any sale of or collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral may, in the discretion of the Collateral Agent, be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for, and/or then or at any time thereafter applied (after
payment of any amounts payable to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8 hereof) in whole or in part by the Collateral Agent against, all or any part of the Obligations in such order as the Collateral Agent shall elect, consistent with
the provisions of the Securities Purchase Agreement. Any surplus of such cash or Cash Proceeds held by the Collateral Agent and remaining after the 

  

 -19- 

 
indefeasible payment in full in cash of all of the Obligations shall be paid over to whomsoever shall be lawfully entitled to receive the same or as a court
of competent jurisdiction shall direct. 
  
 (c) In the event that
the proceeds of any such sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Collateral Agent and the Buyers are legally entitled, each Grantor shall be liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the
highest rate specified in any of the applicable Transaction Documents for interest on overdue principal thereof or such other rate as shall be fixed by applicable law, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees, costs, expenses
and other client charges of any attorneys employed by the Collateral Agent to collect such deficiency. 
  
 (d) Each Grantor hereby acknowledges that if the Collateral Agent complies with any applicable state, provincial, or federal law requirements in
connection with a disposition of the Collateral, such compliance will not adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale or other disposition of the Collateral. 
  
 (e) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including, but not
limited to, this Agreement and the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of the Collateral
Agent’s rights hereunder and in respect of such collateral security and other assurances of payment shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising. To the extent that each Grantor lawfully may, such Grantor
hereby agrees that it will not invoke any law relating to the marshalling of collateral which might cause delay in or impede the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights under this Agreement or under any other instrument creating or
evidencing any of the Obligations or under which any of the Obligations is outstanding or by which any of the Obligations is secured or payment thereof is otherwise assured, and, to the extent that it lawfully may, such Grantor hereby irrevocably
waives the benefits of all such laws. 
  
 SECTION 8. Indemnity
and Expenses. 
  
 (a) Each Grantor agrees, jointly and
severally, to defend, protect, indemnify and hold the Collateral Agent and each of the Buyers, jointly and severally, harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees, costs, expenses, and disbursements of such Person’s counsel) to the extent that they arise out of or otherwise result from this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement of this
Agreement), except claims, damages, losses, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, costs and expenses resulting solely and directly from such Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final judgment of a court of
competent jurisdiction. 
  
 (b) Each Grantor agrees, jointly and
severally, to upon demand pay to the Collateral Agent the amount of any and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees, costs, expenses and disbursements of counsel for the Collateral Agent and of any experts and agents (including,
without limitation, any collateral trustee which may act as agent of the Collateral Agent), which the Collateral Agent may incur in connection with (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, recordation, administration, amendment, waiver
or other 

  

 -20- 

 
modification or termination of this Agreement, (ii) the custody, preservation, use or operation of, or the sale of, collection from, or other realization
upon, any Collateral, (iii) the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent hereunder, or (iv) the failure by any Grantor to perform or observe any of the provisions hereof. 
  
 SECTION 9. Notices, Etc. All notices and other communications provided
for hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed (by certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested), telecopied or delivered, if to a Grantor at its address specified below and if to the Collateral Agent to it, at its address
specified below; or as to any such Person, at such other address as shall be designated by such Person in a written notice to such other Person complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 9. All such notices and other
communications shall be effective (a) if sent by certified mail, return receipt requested, when received or three days after deposited in the mails, whichever occurs first, (b) if telecopied, when transmitted (during normal business hours) and
confirmation is received, otherwise, the day after the notice was transmitted if confirmation is received, or (c) if delivered, upon delivery. 
  
 SECTION 10. Miscellaneous. 
  
 (a) No amendment of any provision of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by each Grantor and the Collateral Agent, and no
waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by a Grantor therefrom, shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific
instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 
  
 (b) No
failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any of the other Transaction Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right
preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not
exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer under any of the other Transaction Documents against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by such Person to exercise
any of its rights under any of the other Transaction Documents against such party or against any other Person, including but not limited to, any Grantor. 
  
 (c) Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent
of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 Exhibit 10.7 
  
 GUARANTY 
  
 GUARANTY, dated as of May     , 2005 made by the undersigned (each, a “Guarantor” and, collectively,
the “Guarantors”), in favor of HBK INVESTMENTS L.P., in its capacity as collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Collateral Agent”) on behalf of the “Buyers” (as defined below) party to the Securities
Purchase Agreement, dated as of even date herewith (as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Securities Purchase Agreement”). 
  
 W I T N E S S E T H : 
  
 WHEREAS, Avanex Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Parent”) and each party listed as a “Buyer” on the Schedule of Buyers
attached thereto are parties to a Securities Purchase Agreement; 
  
 WHEREAS, the Parent and the Guarantors have each executed and delivered a Security Agreement dated as of even date herewith, in favor of the Collateral Agent (as amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Security Agreement”); 
  
 WHEREAS, it is a
condition precedent to the Buyers’ obligation under the Securities Purchase Agreement that each Guarantor execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent a guaranty guaranteeing all of the obligations of the Parent thereunder; and 
  
 WHEREAS, each Guarantor has determined that its execution, delivery and
performance of this Guaranty directly benefit, and are within the corporate purposes and in the best interests of, such Guarantor; 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the agreements herein and in order to induce the Buyers to perform under the Securities Purchase
Agreement, each Guarantor hereby agrees with the Collateral Agent as follows: 
  
 SECTION 1. Definitions. Reference is hereby made to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the “Notes” (as defined therein) issued pursuant thereto (as such Notes may be amended, restated, replaced or
otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, collectively, the “Notes”) for a statement of the terms thereof. All terms used in this Guaranty, which are defined in the Security Agreement, the Securities
Purchase Agreement or the Notes and not otherwise defined herein, shall have the same meanings herein as set forth therein. 
  
 SECTION 2. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally, guarantees the punctual payment, as and when due
and payable, by stated maturity or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Parent from time to time owing by it in respect of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Notes and the other “Transaction Documents” (as defined in the Securities
Purchase Agreement), including, without limitation, all interest that accrues after the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding of the Parent or any Guarantor, whether or not the payment of such interest is unenforceable or is not allowable due to
the existence of such Insolvency Proceeding), and all fees, commissions, expense 

  

 
reimbursements, indemnifications and all other amounts due or to become due under any of the Transaction Documents (such obligations, to the extent not paid
by the Parent, being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) reasonably incurred by the Collateral Agent and the Buyers in enforcing any rights under
this Guaranty. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Parent to the Collateral Agent and the
Buyers under the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Notes but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of an Insolvency Proceeding involving any Guarantor or the Parent (each, a “Transaction
Party”). 
  
 SECTION 3. Guaranty Absolute; Continuing
Guaranty; Assignments. 
  
 (a) Each Guarantor, jointly and
severally, guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such
terms or the rights of the Collateral Agent or the Buyers with respect thereto. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted
against any Guarantor to enforce such obligations, irrespective of whether any action is brought against any Transaction Party or whether any Transaction Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this
Guaranty shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives, to the extent permitted by law, any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

  
 (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of
any Transaction Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto; 
  
 (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Transaction
Document, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to any Transaction Party or otherwise; 
  
 (iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any Collateral, or any taking, release or amendment
or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; 
  
 (iv) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate, limited liability company or partnership structure or existence of any
Transaction Party; or 
  
 (v) any other
circumstance (including any statute of limitations) or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Collateral Agent or the Buyers that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Transaction Party or any
other guarantor or surety. 
  

 - 2 - 

 This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of
the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Collateral Agent, the Buyers or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Transaction Party or otherwise, all as though such payment had not
been made. 
  
 (b) This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and
shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the indefeasible cash payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty and shall not terminate for any reason
prior to the Maturity Date (other than payment in full of the Notes) and (ii) be binding upon each Guarantor and its respective successors and assigns. This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Collateral Agent, the
Buyers and their successors, pledgees, transferees and assigns. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, any Buyer may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under any Transaction
Document to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted to such Buyer herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in the Securities Purchase Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 4. Waivers. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each
Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Guaranty and any requirement that the Collateral Agent or the Buyers exhaust any right or take any
action against any Transaction Party or any other Person or any Collateral. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated herein and that the waiver set forth in this
Section 4 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Guaranty, and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing
now or in the future. 
  
 SECTION 5. Subrogation. No
Guarantor may exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Transaction Party or any other guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty,
including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers against any Transaction Party or any
other guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute or common law, including, without limitation, the right to take or receive from any Transaction Party or any other guarantor,
directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity
obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty shall have indefeasibly been paid in full in cash. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the later of the
payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers and shall forthwith be paid to the Collateral Agent
and the Buyers to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the 

  

 - 3 - 

 
Transaction Document, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts payable under this Guaranty thereafter arising. If (a) any
Guarantor shall make payment to the Collateral Agent and the Buyers of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and (b) all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) and all other amounts payable under this
Guaranty shall indefeasibly be paid in full in cash, the Collateral Agent and the Buyers will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or
warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor. 
  
 SECTION 6. Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Each Guarantor hereby represents and warrants as follows:

  
 (a) Such Guarantor (i) is a corporation, duly organized,
validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization as set forth on the first page hereof, (ii) has all requisite power and authority to conduct its business as now conducted and as presently contemplated and
to execute and deliver this Guaranty and each other Transaction Document to which such Guarantor is a party, and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and (iii) is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in
each jurisdiction in which the character of the properties owned or leased by it or in which the transaction of its business makes such qualification necessary except where the failure to be so qualified would not result in a Material Adverse
Effect. 
  
 (b) The execution, delivery and performance by such
Guarantor of this Guaranty and each other Transaction Document to which such Guarantor is a party (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary action, (ii) do not and will not contravene its charter or by-laws, its limited liability company or
operating agreement or its certificate of partnership or partnership agreement, as applicable, or any applicable law or any contractual restriction binding on such Guarantor or its properties, (iii) do not and will not result in or require the
creation of any lien (other than pursuant to any Transaction Document) upon or with respect to any of its properties, and (iv) do not and will not result in any default, noncompliance, suspension, revocation, impairment, forfeiture or nonrenewal of
any material permit, license, authorization or approval applicable to it or its operations or any of its properties. 
  
 (c) No authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any governmental authority is required in connection with the due
execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Guaranty or any of the other Transaction Documents to which such Guarantor is a party, except as otherwise described in the Security Agreement. 
  
 (d) Each of this Guaranty and the other Transaction Documents to which such
Guarantor is or will be a party, when delivered, will be, a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium, suretyship or other similar laws and equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law). 
  

 - 4 - 

 (e) There is no pending or, to the best knowledge of such Guarantor, threatened action, suit or
proceeding against such Guarantor or to which any of the properties of such Guarantor is subject, before any court or other governmental authority or any arbitrator that (i) if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect or (ii) relates to this Guaranty or any of the other Transaction Documents to which such Guarantor is a party or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby. 
  
 (f) Such Guarantor (i) has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Securities Purchase Agreement and the other
Transaction Documents, and (ii) now has and will continue to have independent means of obtaining information concerning the affairs, financial condition and business of the Parent and the other Transaction Parties, and has no need of, or right to
obtain from the Collateral Agent or any Buyer, any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of the Parent or the other Transaction Parties that may come under the control of the Collateral Agent or any
Buyer. 
  
 (g) Such Guarantor covenants and agrees that until
indefeasible full and final payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, it will comply with each of the covenants (except to the extent applicable only to a public company) which are set forth in Section 4 of the Securities Purchase Agreement as if such
Guarantor were a party thereto. 
  
 SECTION 7. Right of
Set-off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Collateral Agent or any Buyer may, and is hereby authorized to, at any time and from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor (any such notice being
expressly waived by each Guarantor) and to the fullest extent permitted by law, set-off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the
Collateral Agent or any Buyer to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all obligations of any Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document, irrespective of whether or not any
Collateral Agent or any Buyer shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document and although such obligations may be contingent or unmatured. The Collateral Agent and each Buyer agrees to notify the relevant Guarantor
promptly after any such set-off and application made by the Collateral Agent or such Buyer, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Collateral Agent and the
Buyers under this Section 7 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Collateral Agent and the Buyers may have under this Guaranty or any other Transaction Document in law or
otherwise. 
  
 SECTION 8. Notices, Etc. All notices and
other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and shall be mailed, telecopied or delivered, if to any Guarantor, to it at its address set forth on the signature page hereto, or if to the Collateral Agent, to it at its address set

AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE JURISDICTION OR LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT REFERRED TO ABOVE AND ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH

ATTORNEY OF THE COLLATERAL AGENT OR ANY BUYER HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT THE COLLATERAL AGENT OR ANY BUYER WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY
ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS. EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE BUYERS ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT. 
  
 SECTION 11. Taxes. 
  
 (a) All payments made by any Guarantor hereunder or under any other
Transaction Document shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement and shall be made without set-off, counterclaim, deduction or other defense. All such payments shall be made free and clear of and without deduction
for any present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding franchise taxes and taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities
with respect thereto, imposed on the net income of the Buyers by the jurisdiction in which such Buyer is organized or where it has its principal lending office (all such nonexcluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and
liabilities, collectively or individually, “Taxes”). If any Guarantor shall be required to deduct or to withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any amount payable hereunder or under any other Transaction Document; 
  
 (i) the amount so payable shall be increased to the extent
necessary so that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including Taxes on amounts payable to the Collateral Agent or the Buyers pursuant to this sentence) the Collateral Agent or the Buyers receive an amount equal to the sum they
would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made, 
  
 (ii) such Guarantor shall make such deduction or withholding, 
  
 (iii) such Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation authority in accordance with applicable law,
and 
  
 (iv) as promptly as possible thereafter,
such Guarantor shall send the Collateral Agent and the Buyers an official receipt (or, if an official receipt is not available, such other documentation as shall be satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or the Buyers, as the case may be) showing
payment. In addition but excluding taxes, charges, levies, imposts, deductions and withholdings excluded from the definition of Taxes, such Guarantor agrees to pay any present or future taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment
made hereunder or from the execution, delivery, performance, recordation or filing of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document other than any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or
property taxes, charges or similar levies that arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Transaction Document (collectively, “Other
Taxes”).

 (b) Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, indemnifies and agrees to hold the Collateral Agent and
the Buyers harmless from and against Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 11) paid by the Collateral Agent or any Buyer and any liability
(including penalties, interest and expenses for nonpayment, late payment or otherwise) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be paid within
30 days from the date on which the Collateral Agent or any Buyer makes written demand therefor, which demand shall identify the nature and amount of Taxes or Other Taxes. 
  
 (c) If any Guarantor fails to perform any of its obligations under this Section 11, each Guarantor shall, jointly and
severally, indemnify the Collateral Agent and the Buyers for any taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable as a result of any such failure. The obligations of the Parent under this Section 11 shall survive the termination of this Guaranty
and the payment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 12. Miscellaneous. 
  
 (a) Each Guarantor will make each payment hereunder in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds to the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Buyers, at such address specified by the Collateral Agent
from time to time by notice to such Guarantor. 
  
 (b) No
amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty and no consent to any departure by any Guarantor therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by such Guarantor and the Collateral Agent, and then such
waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. 
  
 (c) No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent or any Buyer to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other
Transaction Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder or under any Transaction Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights
and remedies of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers provided herein and in the other Transaction Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the Collateral Agent and
the Buyers under any Transaction Document against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by the Collateral Agent and the Buyers to exercise any of their rights under any other Transaction Document against such party or
against any other Person. 
  
 (d) Any provision of this Guaranty
that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or thereof or affecting the validity or
enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
  
 (e) This Guaranty shall (i) be binding on each Guarantor and its respective successors and assigns, and (ii) inure, together with all rights and remedies of the Collateral 

  

 - 8 - 

 
Agent and the Buyers hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the Buyers and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. Without
limiting the generality of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, any Buyer may assign or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations under the Securities Purchase Agreement or any other Transaction Document to any other Person, and
such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all of the benefits in respect thereof granted to the Buyers herein or otherwise. Each Guarantor agrees that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11 with respect to its
participation in any portion of the Notes as if it was a Buyer. None of the rights or obligations of any Guarantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise transferred without the prior written consent of the Collateral Agent. 
  
 (f) This Guaranty and the other Transaction Documents represent the entire
agreement of each Guarantor, the Collateral Agent and the Buyers with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Collateral Agent or any Buyer relative to the subject matter
thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Transaction Documents. 
  
 (g) Section headings herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement for any other purpose. 
  
 (h) THIS GUARANTY AND THE OTHER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS (UNLESS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED TO THE CONTRARY IN ANOTHER TRANSACTION
DOCUMENT) SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES.
