- 2 -
LEGAL02/36936773v5

hereunder and claims of every nature and description of the Buyers against the Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Repurchase Agreement or otherwise, as the Buyers may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent has made any demand for payment and although such Obligations and liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the Guarantor promptly after receipt of notice of any such set-off and the application made by the Buyers, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amounts shall be held by the Guarantor in trust for the Administrative Agent, segregated from other funds of the Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Guarantor, be turned over to the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly indorsed by the Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine.
5.    Amendments, etc. with Respect to the Obligations.  Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against the Guarantor, and without notice to or further assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made by the Administrative Agent may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent, and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or Buyers, and the Repurchase Agreement, and the other Program Agreements and any other document in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable from time to time, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent for the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released.  The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held by it as security for the Obligations or for this Guaranty or any property subject thereto.  When making any demand hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Seller Parties or any other guarantor, and any failure by the 

- 3 -
LEGAL02/36936773v5

Administrative Agent to make any such demand or to collect any payments from the Seller Parties or any such other guarantor or any release of the Seller Parties or such other guarantor shall not relieve the Guarantor of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or Buyers against the Guarantor.  For the purposes hereof “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
6.    Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional. 
(a)    Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent upon this Guaranty or acceptance of this Guaranty; the Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived in reliance upon this Guaranty; and all dealings between the Seller Parties or the Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty.  Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Seller Parties or the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations.  This Guaranty shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (i) the validity or enforceability of the Repurchase Agreement, the other Program Agreements, any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent, (ii) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Seller Parties against the Administrative Agent or Buyers, or (iii) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Seller Parties or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Seller Parties for the Obligations, or of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, in bankruptcy or in any other instance.  When pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the Administrative Agent may, but shall be under no obligation, to pursue such rights and remedies that they may have against the Seller Parties or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Seller Parties or any such other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Seller Parties or any such other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent on behalf of Buyers against the Guarantor.  This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantor and their successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Buyers and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until all the Obligations and the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall have been satisfied by payment in full, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of the Repurchase Agreement the Seller Parties may be free from any Obligations.

LEGAL02/36936773v5

(b)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor hereby agrees, acknowledges, and represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and Buyers as follows:
(i)    Guarantor hereby waives any defense arising by reason of, and any and all right to assert against the Administrative Agent and Buyers  any claim or defense based upon, an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent and Buyers  which in any manner impairs, affects, reduces, releases, destroys and/or extinguishes Guarantor’s subrogation rights, rights to proceed against the Seller Parties or any other guarantor for reimbursement or contribution, and/or any other rights of the Guarantor to proceed against the Seller Parties, against any other guarantor, or against any other person or security.
(ii)    Guarantor is presently informed of the financial condition of the Seller Parties and of all other circumstances which diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations.  The Guarantor hereby covenants that it will make its own investigation and will continue to keep itself informed of the Seller Parties’ financial condition, the status of other guarantors, if any, of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment and that it will continue to rely upon sources other than the Administrative Agent for such information and will not rely upon the Administrative Agent for any such information.  Absent a written request for such information by the Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, Guarantor hereby waives its right, if any, to require the Administrative Agent to disclose to Guarantor any information which the Administrative Agent may now or hereafter acquire concerning such condition or circumstances including, but not limited to, the release of or revocation by any other guarantor.
(iii)    Guarantor has independently reviewed the Repurchase Agreement and related agreements and has made an independent determination as to the validity and enforceability thereof, and in executing and delivering this Guaranty to the Administrative Agent, Guarantor is not in any manner relying upon the validity, and/or enforceability, and/or attachment, and/or perfection of any Liens or security interests of any kind or nature granted by the Seller Parties or any other guarantor to the Administrative Agent, now or at any time and from time to time in the future.
7.    Reinstatement.  This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Seller Parties or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Seller Parties or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
8.    Payments.  Guarantor hereby agrees that the Obligations will be paid to the Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in U.S. Dollars.

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

	2.
	Retention Bonus.  You shall be entitled to a retention bonus in the amount of $250,000.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company terminates your employment without “Cause” (as defined in the Employment Agreement), you shall receive such payment within three (3) business days of the date of such termination.

	7.
	Entire Agreement.

No modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be effective without a prior written agreement signed by you and the Company.
