	As an inducement to the Company to enter into the Amendment, Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the payment of the aggregate purchase price of $50,000,000 for the Subsequent PIPE Shares in accordance with this Agreement (the “Guarantee”). Notice of acceptance of this Guarantee, as well as demand and protest with respect to such underlying payment obligations, are hereby waived by Guarantor.  This Guarantee is and shall be an irrevocable, continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee by the Guarantor.  The obligations of Guarantor under this Guarantee shall not be subject to any counterclaim, setoff, deduction or defense based on any claim Guarantor may have against the Company or any other person or entity and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, abated, deferred, reduced, limited, discharged, terminated or otherwise impaired or adversely affected by any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, other than the full performance of the Purchaser’s obligation to pay the aggregate purchase price of $50,000,000 for the Subsequent PIPE Shares.
