Fortress Credit Co LLC, as administrative agent for the Lenders (as defined below) and certain other secured parties (in such
capacity, including any successor in such capacity, the “Agent”), and State Street Bank and Trust Company,
a Massachusetts trust company (“Custodian”).

 

WHEREAS,
Borrower, certain affiliates of Borrower and the Custodian are parties to that certain Custodian Agreement, dated as of December
10, 2013 (as amended, restated, modified, or supplemented from time to time, the “Custodian Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS,

the Borrower, has notified Custodian in writing of its desire for Custodian to perform services under the Custodian Agreement
with respect to the Borrower and Custodian has consented to treat the Borrower as a “Company” as defined in the Custodian
Agreement, including to act as custodian for the Borrower’s securities and other assets;

 

WHEREAS,
the Borrower has entered into the Term Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, among the Borrower, any other
Loan Parties (as defined therein) who become party thereto from time to time, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the
“Lenders”) and the Agent (the “Loan Agreement”) pursuant to which (i) such Lenders have
agreed, subject to the terms and conditions therein specified, to extend credit to the Borrower and (ii) the Borrower, among other
things, has agreed to pledge and grant a security interest in all right, title and interest of the Borrower in, to and under certain
of its property, including the Collateral Account (as defined below) and any cash, securities or other assets therein or otherwise
held by the Custodian on behalf of or for the benefit of the Borrower (collectively, the “Collateral”), in
favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Lenders as collateral security for the obligations of the Borrower under the Loan Agreement;
and

 

WHEREAS,
in connection with the Loan Agreement, the Borrower intends to grant control (as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code, as in
effect from time to time in The State of New York (the “UCC”)) over the Collateral Account and possession of
other Collateral to the Agent and the Agent, the Borrower and the Custodian are entering into this Agreement to perfect the security
interest of the Agent in the Collateral Account and provide for the control of the Collateral Account and possession of other
Collateral.

 

NOW
THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1.           Establishment
of Collateral Account. The Custodian has established and will maintain on its books and records the Borrower’s custodial
accounts, Account Nos. [10671162 and 10683027], which accounts and the assets credited thereto are pledged in favor of the Agent
(individually and collectively, the “Collateral Account”). The Custodian will credit to the Collateral Account
any assets delivered to it by the Borrower pursuant to the Custodian Agreement except that Loan Documents and Identified Securities
(as each such term is defined below) delivered to the Custodian shall be held by the Custodian upon the terms of Section 5. The
Custodian shall have no responsibility for determining the adequacy of any Collateral required hereunder or under the Loan Agreement,
nor will it assume responsibility for any calculations related to any Collateral requirements under the Loan Agreement.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

2           Account
Control.

 

2.1        Agent
Security Interest. This Agreement is intended by the Borrower and the Agent to grant “control” of the Collateral
Account and possession of other Collateral to the Agent for purposes of perfection of the Agent’s security interest in the
Collateral Account and other Collateral pursuant to Article 8 and Article 9 of the UCC and the Custodian hereby acknowledges that
it has been advised of the Borrower’s grant to Agent of a security interest in the Collateral and Collateral Account. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Custodian makes no representation or warranty with respect to the creation, attachment, perfection, priority
or enforceability of any security interest in the Collateral or Collateral Account.

 

2.2        Borrower
Control. Unless and until the Custodian receives written notice from the Agent pursuant to Section 2.3(ii) below instructing
the Custodian that the Agent is exercising its right to exclusive control over the Collateral Account, which notice is substantially
in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (a “Notice of Exclusive Control”) and the Custodian has a reasonable
time to act thereon in accordance with Section 2.3(ii), or if all previous Notices of Exclusive Control have been revoked or rescinded
in writing by the Agent: (i) the Borrower shall be entitled to exercise all rights with respect to, and to direct the Custodian
with respect to, the Collateral Account, provided that the Borrower may not terminate the Collateral Account without the prior
written consent of the Agent, and (ii) the Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability to the Agent or any Lender for
settling trades of financial assets and cash carried in the Collateral Account at the direction of and in accordance with the
instructions of the Borrower given in accordance with the Custodian Agreement, or for complying with entitlement orders from the
Borrower concerning the Collateral Account.

 

2.3       Control
by Agent.

 

(i)        The
Borrower irrevocably authorizes and directs the Custodian, and the Custodian agrees, to comply with any entitlement order or instructions
(within the meaning of Sections 8-102, 8-106, 9-104 and 9-106 of the UCC) received from the Agent with respect to the Collateral
Account, without further consent of the Borrower.

 

(ii)       Upon
receipt by the Custodian of a Notice of Exclusive Control and the Custodian having a reasonable time (not to exceed two (2) banking
days) to act thereon, the Custodian shall thereafter follow only the instruction of the Agent with respect to the Collateral Account,
and shall comply only with any entitlement order or instructions received from the Agent, without further consent of the Borrower,
and shall be entitled to deal with the Agent as though the Agent were the sole and absolute owner of the Collateral Account. Without
limiting the Custodian’s obligations under Section 2.3(i) and (ii), Agent agrees that it shall deliver a Notice of Exclusive
Control prior to or simultaneously with any entitlement order or instruction. For the avoidance of doubt, from and after delivery
of a Notice of Exclusive Control and the Custodian having a reasonable time (not to exceed two (2) banking days) to act thereon,
the Borrower (whether directly or through its investment manager) shall have no right or ability to access or receive or withdraw
or transfer financial assets from, or to give other instructions concerning the Collateral Account until such time as the Agent
shall have notified the Custodian in writing of the withdrawal of the Notice of Exclusive Control and instructed the Custodian
to resume honoring instructions which the Borrower is entitled to give under the Custodian Agreement.

 

(iii)      As
between the Borrower and the Agent, the Agent agrees with the Borrower that it shall not issue a Notice of Exclusive Control or
any entitlement order or instructions with respect to the Collateral Account pursuant to Section 2.3(i) or (ii) unless an Event
of Default (as defined in the Loan Agreement) shall have occurred and be continuing.

 

    	-2-

    	 

    

 

(iv)      The
Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower for complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control or complying
with entitlement orders or other instructions originated by the Agent concerning any Collateral or the Collateral Account. The
Custodian shall have no duty to investigate or make any determination as to whether an event of default or other like event exists
under the Loan Agreement, and the Custodian shall be fully protected in complying with a Notice of Exclusive Control whether or
not the Borrower may allege that no such event of default or other like event exists. Delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control
by the Agent to the Custodian shall be effective whether or not a copy of the same is delivered to the Borrower.

 

(v)       As
between the Agent and the Custodian, notwithstanding any provision contained herein or in any other document or instrument to
the contrary, the Custodian shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken at the instruction of the Agent, or
any action taken or omitted to be taken under or in connection with this Agreement, except for the Custodian’s own bad faith,
gross negligence or willful misconduct in carrying out such instructions.

 

3.          Distributions.
The Custodian shall, without further action by Borrower or Agent, credit to the Collateral Account all interest, dividends
and other income received by the Custodian on the Collateral, unless and until the Custodian has received a Notice
of Exclusive Control and has been directed otherwise by the Agent, in which event all such receipts shall be credited to
such account as directed by the Agent.

 

4.          Duties
and Services of Custodian.

 

(i)        Custodian
agrees that it is acting as a “securities intermediary,” as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC with respect to the
Collateral Account. The parties hereto further agree that the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction, within the meaning
of Section 8-110(e) of the UCC, is the State of New York and agree that none of them has or will enter into any agreement to the
contrary except that the parties acknowledge that the Custodian Agreement is otherwise governed by Massachusetts law.

 

(ii)       The
Custodian shall have no duties, obligations, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to the Collateral or the Collateral
Account except as and to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement and the Custodian Agreement, and no implied duties of
any kind shall be read into this Agreement against the Custodian including, without limitation, the duty to preserve, exercise
or enforce rights in the Collateral and Collateral Account. The Custodian shall not be liable or responsible for anything done
or omitted to be done by it in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct and may rely and shall be protected
in acting upon any notice, instruction or other communication which it reasonably believes to be genuine and authorized.

 

(iii)      As
between the Borrower and the Custodian, except for the rights of control and possession in favor of the Agent agreed to herein,
nothing herein shall be deemed to modify, limit, restrict, amend or supercede the terms of the Custodian Agreement, and the Custodian
shall be and remain entitled to all of the rights, indemnities, powers, and protections in its favor under the Custodian Agreement,
which shall apply fully to the Custodian’s actions and omissions hereunder. If a provision of this Agreement in favor of
the Agent conflicts with a provision of the Custodian Agreement, this Agreement shall control. Instructions under this Agreement
from a Borrower’s authorized representative given in accordance with the terms of the Custodian Agreement shall also constitute
Proper Instructions (as defined in the Custodian Agreement) under the Custodian Agreement.

 

    	-3-

    	 

    

 

(iv)      The
Agent agrees to provide to Custodian, in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto, the names and signatures of authorized
parties who may give written notices, instructions or entitlement orders concerning the Collateral or the Collateral Account.
Other means of notice or instruction may be used, provided that the Agent and Custodian agree to appropriate security procedures.
As between the Custodian and Agent, the Agent shall indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless with regard to any losses or liabilities
of the Custodian (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) imposed on or incurred by the Custodian arising out of any action
or omission of the Custodian in accordance with any notice or any entitlement order or other instruction of Agent under this Agreement.

 

(v)       The
parties hereto acknowledge that no “security entitlement” under the UCC shall exist with respect to (A) cash (which
shall be credited to the Collateral Account), (B) any Loan Document (as defined below), or the Borrower’s interest in a
direct or participation or subparticipation interest in or by assignment or novation of a loan or other extension of credit evidenced,
governed or represented by the Loan Document, or (C) any other asset (including, without limitation, any certificated security)
which is registered in the name of the Borrower, payable to the order of the Borrower or specially indorsed to the Borrower or
any third party (each such other asset an “Identified Security”), except to the extent such Identified Security
has been specially indorsed by the Borrower to the Custodian or in blank.

 

(vi)      For
avoidance of doubt, the Agent hereby acknowledges that any Collateral issued outside the United States (“Foreign Security
System Assets”) which may be held by the Custodian, a sub-custodian within the Custodian’s network of sub-custodians
(each a “Sub-Custodian”) or a depository or book-entry system for the central handling of securities and other
financial assets in which the Custodian or the Sub-Custodian are participants may not permit the Borrower to have a security entitlement
under the UCC with respect to such Foreign Security System Assets (and such property shall be deemed for purposes of this Agreement
not to be a financial asset held within the Collateral Account). The parties hereby further acknowledge that the Custodian gives
no assurance that a security entitlement is created under the UCC with respect to Borrower’s assets held in Euroclear or
Clearstream or their successors. Solely as between the Borrower and Agent, the Borrower hereby acknowledges that the foregoing
shall not be deemed a waiver by the Agent of any of the obligations of the Obligors to Deliver such Collateral or any other obligations
of the Obligors under the Loan Documents (as defined in the Loan Agreement).

 

5.          Bailment
of Loan Documents and Identified Securities; Loan Document Inspection Rights.

 

(i)        If
the Borrower delivers or causes a third party to deliver to the Custodian an instrument, document, certificate or other agreement
evidencing, governing or representing the Borrower’s ownership in or the Borrower’s interest in a direct or participation
or subparticipation interest in or by assignment or novation of a loan or other extension of credit (including any Financing Document
(as defined in the Custodian Agreement)) that is not a “security” as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC (a “Loan
Document”) or an Identified Security, the Custodian agrees to hold the Loan Document or Identified Security as bailee
for the Agent (and not, for the avoidance of doubt, as “securities intermediary”).

 

    	-4-

    	 

    

 

(ii)       Until
the Custodian receives a Notice of Exclusive Control or if all previous Notices of Exclusive Control have been revoked in writing
by the Agent, the Custodian shall comply with the instructions of the Borrower in respect of any Loan Document or Identified Security.
The Custodian agrees that following its receipt from the Agent of a Notice of Exclusive Control and the Custodian having a reasonable
time (not to exceed two (2) banking days) to act thereon, the Custodian shall thereafter follow only the instruction of the Agent
with respect to all Loan Documents and Identified Securities, without the further consent of the Borrower and shall be entitled
to deal with the Agent as though the Agent were the sole and absolute owner of such Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, from
and after delivery of a Notice of Exclusive Control and the Custodian having a reasonable time (not to exceed two (2) banking
days) to act thereon, the Borrower (whether directly or through its investment manager) shall have no right or ability to give
any instructions concerning such Collateral until such time as the Agent shall have notified the Custodian in writing of the withdrawal
of the Notice of Exclusive Control and instructed the Custodian to resume honoring instructions which the Borrower is entitled
to give under the Custodian Agreement.

  

(iii)      Upon
the Agent’s reasonable request (which shall include reasonable advance written notice), copies of the Loan Documents and
Identified Securities shall be subject to the Agent’s inspection. The Custodian reserves the right to impose reasonable
restrictions on the number, frequency, timing and scope of any such inspection so as to prevent or minimize any potential impairment
or disruption of its operations, distraction of its personnel or breaches of security or confidentiality. In addition, the Custodian
shall be entitled to impose a commercially reasonable per person hourly charge for the cooperation and assistance of its personnel
reasonably requested by the Agent in connection with any such inspection (the “Custodian Inspection Expenses”).
Nothing contained in this section shall obligate the Custodian to provide access to or otherwise disclose any documents or information
that the Custodian is obligated to maintain in confidence as a matter of law or regulation (and, to the extent that any such obligation
is waivable by the Borrower, the Borrower hereby waives such obligation to the extent necessary to permit the Agent to have reasonable
access to such documents or information).

 

(iv)      The
Custodian shall have no responsibilities or duties whatsoever with respect to a Loan Document or Identified Security, except for
such responsibilities as are expressly set forth herein or the Custodian Agreement. The Custodian shall be entitled to all exculpations,
indemnities and other benefits under this Agreement when acting as bailee for the Agent.

 

(v)      
 For the avoidance of doubt, as between the Borrower and the Agent, the Borrower agrees that the fees and expenses of
representatives retained by the Agent in connection with any inspection requested by the Agent pursuant to Section 5(iii)
(each, an “Agent Inspection”) will be covered by Section 6.09 of the Loan Agreement subject to the
limitations set forth in such Section 6.09.

 

(vi)      The
Borrower agrees to bear the cost of the Custodian Inspection Expenses for (a) the first two Agent Inspections requested in
each calendar year and (b) any Agent Inspection conducted while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Agent
agrees to bear the cost of any Custodian Inspection Expenses that are not required to be borne by the Borrower in accordance with
the preceding sentence.

 

6.          Force Majeure; Special Damages. The Custodian shall not be liable for delays, errors or losses occurring by reason
of circumstances beyond its control, including, without limitation, acts of God, market disorder, terrorism, insurrection, war,
riots, failure of transportation or equipment, or failure of vendors, communication or power supply. In no event shall any party
hereto be liable to any person or entity for consequential or special damages, even if such party has been advised of the possibility
or likelihood of such damages.

 

    	-5-

    	 

    

 

7.          Compliance
with Legal Process and Judicial Orders. The Custodian shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower or to the
Agent or to any other person or entity for acting in accordance with any judicial or arbitral process, order, writ, judgment,
decree or claim of lien relating to the Collateral or Collateral Account subject to this Agreement notwithstanding that such order
or process is subsequently modified, vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect.

 

8.         Custodian
Representations.

 

8.1        The
Custodian agrees and confirms, as of the date hereof, and at all times until the termination of this Agreement that it has not
entered into, and until the termination of this Agreement will not enter into, any agreement (other than the Custodian Agreement)
with any other person or entity relating to the Collateral or the Collateral Account under which it has agreed to comply with
entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102 of the UCC) or other instructions of such other person or entity.

 

8.2        The
Collateral Account will be maintained in the manner set forth in the Custodian Agreement subject to the provisions hereof until
termination of this Agreement, and the Custodian will not change the name or account number of the Collateral Account without
prior written notice to the Agent.

 

8.3        The
Custodian has no knowledge of any claim to or interest in the Collateral Account, other than the interests therein of the Custodian,
the Agent and the Borrower. If the Custodian is notified by any person or entity that such person or entity asserts any lien,
encumbrance or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process)
against the Collateral Account, the Custodian will notify the Agent and the Borrower promptly thereof.

 

9.          Access
To Reports. Upon any pledge, release or substitution of Collateral in the Collateral Account, and upon any release of
other Collateral otherwise in the possession of the Custodian, Custodian shall notify Agent within one business day of such
change. The Custodian will provide to the Agent a copy of a statement of the Collateral Account and other Collateral in the
possession of the Custodian within twenty (20) business days of the end of the calendar month (or more frequently as the
Agent may reasonably request); provided, however, that the Custodian’s failure to forward a copy of such
statement to the Agent shall not give rise to any liability hereunder. Upon the Agent’s request, the Borrower hereby
authorizes the Custodian to, and based on such authorization the Custodian hereby agrees to use commercially reasonable
efforts to, provide to the Agent such other information concerning the Collateral Account and/or the Collateral as the Agent
may reasonably request, provided that nothing contained herein shall obligate the Custodian to provide the Agent such
information if it is not obligated to provide such information to the Borrower under the Custodian Agreement, and provided,
further, that the Custodian’s failure to forward such information to the Agent shall not give rise to any liability
hereunder

 

10.       Fees
and Expenses, Etc. of Custodian.

 

10.1      Reimbursement
For Costs; Indemnity. In addition to the terms of the Custodian Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees (a) to pay and reimburse
the Custodian for any advances, costs, expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) and
disbursements that may be paid or incurred by the Custodian in connection with this Agreement or the arrangement contemplated
hereby, including any that may be incurred in performing its duties or responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement
and (b) to indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless from and against any other loss, cost or expense sustained or incurred by
the Custodian in connection with this Agreement or the arrangement contemplated hereby, including any that may be incurred in
performing its duties or responsibilities pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

 

    	-6-

    	 

    

 

10.2      Liens.
Any fees, expenses or other amounts that may be owing to the Custodian from time to time pursuant to the terms hereof or of the
Custodian Agreement shall be secured by any lien, encumbrance and other rights that the Custodian may have under the Custodian
Agreement or applicable law; and (subject to Section 10.4) the Custodian shall be entitled to exercise such rights and interests
against the Collateral and Collateral Account in accordance with the terms of the Custodian Agreement.

 

10.3     Advances.
It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed by the parties that the Custodian (including its affiliates, subsidiaries and agents)
shall not be obligated to advance cash or investments to, for or on behalf of the Borrower in the Collateral Account; provided,
however, that if the Custodian does advance cash or investments to the Collateral Account for any purpose (including but
not limited to securities settlements, foreign exchange contracts, assumed settlement or account overdraft) for the benefit of
the Borrower, any property at any time held pursuant to this Agreement and the Custodian Agreement shall be security therefor
and, should the Borrower fail to repay the Custodian promptly, the Custodian shall (subject to Section 10.4) be entitled to utilize
available cash and to dispose of Collateral to the extent necessary to obtain reimbursement.

 

10.4     Subordination.
The Custodian subordinates any security interest or right of recoupment or setoff that it may have in or against the Collateral
or the Collateral Account to the security interest in favor of the Agent. However, the subordination will not apply to the extent
that the Custodian’s security interest or right of recoupment or setoff secures or may reduce obligations of the Borrower
to pay, reimburse or indemnify the Custodian for (i) the Custodian’s fees, costs or expenses incurred under Section 10.1(a)
of this Agreement (other than any advances or investments except to the extent provided in clause (iv) of this Section 10.4),
(ii) returned or charged-back items related to the Collateral or the Collateral Account, (iii) reversals or cancellations
of payment orders and other electronic fund transfers related to the Collateral or the Collateral Account or (iv) payments owed
to the Custodian for advances or investments made by the Custodian for the purposes of clearing and settling purchases and sales
of securities or other financial assets credited to the Collateral Account, provided that the Custodian’s rights with respect
to this clause (iv) arising from any security or financial asset shall be limited to such security or financial asset.

 

11.         Notices.
Any notice, instruction or other instrument required to be given hereunder, or any requests and demands to or upon the respective
parties hereto shall be in writing and may be sent by hand, or by facsimile transmission, telex, or overnight delivery by any
recognized delivery service, prepaid or, for termination of this Agreement only, by certified or registered mail, and addressed

Collateral Account. This Agreement may not be terminated by the Borrower without the prior written consent of the Agent (which

Custodian, and shall terminate in the event of termination of the Custodian Agreement, in each case following not less than thirty

Collateral that has not been released by the Agent at or prior to the time of termination shall be transferred to a successor
custodian or bank designated by the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Agent (or, from and after receipt by the Custodian
of a Notice of Exclusive Control, designated by the Agent). In the event no successor is agreed upon, the Custodian shall be entitled
to petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint a successor custodian and shall be indemnified by the Borrower for any
costs and expenses (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees) relating thereto.

agrees in writing to be bound as “Agent” in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

16.       Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of The State of New York, without giving
effect to the conflict of law provisions thereof.

 

17.       Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but such counterparts
together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

18.       Headings.
Any headings appearing on this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of any of the terms
of this Agreement.

 

19.       Confidentiality.
Each of the Custodian, the Borrower and the Agent agrees that it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain, and to
cause its agents, attorneys and accountants to maintain, the confidentiality of the specific terms of this Agreement, and to not
discuss or disclose, nor authorize such agents, attorneys or accountants to discuss or disclose, such terms, directly or indirectly,
to any person, other than: (1) to such agents, attorneys or accountants, subject to the terms hereof; (2) as may be legally required
by applicable law or regulation or by any subpoena or similar legal process, or as may be requested by a regulator having jurisdiction

GUARANTY

 

This GUARANTY, dated as
of November 6, 2015 (this “Guaranty”), is made and entered into by and between FS ENERGY AND POWER FUND, a Delaware
statutory trust (“Guarantor”), and FORTRESS CREDIT CO LLC (“Fortress”), in its capacity as
Administrative Agent (in such capacity, “Administrative Agent”) for itself and as representative of lenders
party to the Loan Agreement referred to below (collectively, the “Lenders”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, reference is hereby
made to that certain Term Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented
or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”; capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined
herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Loan Agreement), by and among FOXFIELDS FUNDING LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company (“Company”), the other Loan Parties party thereto from time to time, the
Lenders party thereto from time to time and Administrative Agent; and

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the
Loan Agreement, the Lenders have agreed to make Term Loans and extend other financial accommodations to Company; and

 

WHEREAS, Guarantor owns
100% of the outstanding Capital Stock of Company, and as such, will derive direct and indirect economic benefits from the Lenders
making the Term Loans and extending other financial accommodations to Company pursuant to the Loan Agreement; and

 

WHEREAS, in order to induce
Administrative Agent and Lenders to enter into the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to induce Lenders to make the
Term Loans and extend the other financial accommodations to Company as provided for in the Loan Agreement, Guarantor has agreed
to guarantee payment of the Obligations on the terms set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are
hereby acknowledged, Guarantor and Administrative Agent agree as follows:

 

1.     Guaranty of the
Obligations. Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of
the Lenders, the due and punctual payment in full, in Cash, of all Obligations when the same shall become due, whether at stated
maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for
the operation of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)) (collectively,
the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

 

2.    Payment by Guarantor.
Guarantor hereby agrees, in furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right which Administrative Agent or
any Lender may have at law, in equity or otherwise against Company or any other Loan Party, that upon the failure of Company or
any other such Loan Party to pay any of the Guaranteed Obligations when and as the same shall become due, whether at stated maturity,
by required prepayment, declaration, acceleration, demand or otherwise (including amounts that would become due but for the operation
of the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. § 362(a)), Guarantor will, upon
demand, pay, or cause to be paid, in Cash, to Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of Lenders, an amount equal to the
sum of the unpaid principal amount of all Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing.

 

    	 

    	 

    

 

3.    Liability of Guarantor
is Absolute. Guarantor agrees that Guarantor’s obligations hereunder are irrevocable, absolute, independent and unconditional
and shall not be affected by any circumstance which constitutes a legal or equitable discharge of a guarantor or surety other than
indefeasible payment in full, in Cash, of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent and un-asserted indemnification and
expense reimbursement claims). In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, Guarantor agrees as
follows:

 

(a)   this Guaranty is
a guaranty of payment when due and not of collectability; and

 

(b)  this Guaranty is
a primary obligation of Guarantor and not merely a contract of surety; and

 

(c)   the obligations
of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Company or any other Loan Party, and a separate action or actions
may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against Company or any other such Loan Party
and whether or not any of them are joined in any such action or actions; and

 

(d)  payment by Guarantor
of a portion, but not all, of the Guaranteed Obligations shall in no way limit, affect, modify or abridge Guarantor’s liability
for any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which has not been paid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if Administrative
Agent is awarded a Judgment in any suit brought to enforce Guarantor’s covenant to pay a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations,
except as otherwise expressly provided in the applicable Judgment, such Judgment shall not be deemed to release Guarantor from
Guarantor’s covenant to pay the portion of the Guaranteed Obligations that is not the subject of such suit, and such Judgment
shall not, except to the extent actually satisfied by Guarantor, limit, affect, modify or abridge Guarantor’s liability hereunder
in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations; and

 

(e)   Administrative Agent
and/or Lenders may, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Agreement, without notice or demand and without affecting the validity
or enforceability hereof or giving rise to any reduction, limitation, impairment, discharge or termination of Guarantor’s
liability hereunder, from time to time may (in each case and at all times in accordance with the Loan Agreement) (i) renew,
extend, accelerate, increase the rate of interest on, or otherwise change the time, place, manner or terms of payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations; (ii) settle, compromise, release or discharge, or accept or refuse any offer of settlement with respect to, or
substitutions for, the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto and/or subordinate the payment of the same to the
payment of any other obligations; (iii) request and accept other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations and take and hold
security for the payment hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) release, surrender, exchange, substitute, compromise,
settle, rescind, waive, alter, subordinate or modify, with or without consideration, any security for payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations, any other guaranties of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other obligation of any Person with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations; (v) enforce and apply any security now or hereafter held by or for the benefit of Administrative Agent or such
Lender in respect hereof or the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with any applicable security agreement; and (vi) exercise
any other rights available to it under the Loan Documents; and

 

    	2

    	 

    

 

(f)   this Guaranty and
the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment,
discharge or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full, in Cash, of the Guaranteed Obligations (other
than contingent and un-asserted indemnification and expense reimbursement claims)), including the occurrence of any of the following,
whether or not Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge of any of them: (i) any failure or omission to assert or enforce
or agreement or election not to assert or enforce, or the stay or enjoining, by order of court, by operation of law or otherwise,
of the exercise or enforcement of, any claim or demand or any right, power or remedy (whether arising under the Loan Documents,
at law, in equity or otherwise) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement relating thereto, or with respect to
any other guaranty of or security for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or
modification of, or any consent to departure from, any of the terms or provisions (including provisions relating to Defaults or
Events of Default) of the Loan Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument executed pursuant thereto, or
of any other guaranty or security for the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any agreement relating
thereto, at any time being found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect; (iv) the application of payments
received from any source (other than payments received pursuant to the other Loan Documents or from the proceeds of any security
for the Guaranteed Obligations, except to the extent such security also serves as collateral for indebtedness other than the Guaranteed
Obligations) to the payment of indebtedness other than the Guaranteed Obligations, even though Administrative Agent or any Lender
might have elected to apply such payment to any part or all of the Guaranteed Obligations; (v) Administrative Agent’s
or any Lender’s consent to the change, reorganization or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Company,
any other Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries and to any corresponding restructuring of the Guaranteed Obligations;
(vi) any failure to perfect or continue perfection of a security interest in any collateral which secures any of the Guaranteed
Obligations; (vii) any defenses, set-offs or counterclaims which Company or any other Loan Party may allege or assert against
Administrative Agent or any Lender in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, including failure of consideration, breach of warranty,
payment, statute of frauds, statute of limitations, accord and satisfaction and usury, but excluding defenses that the Guaranteed
Obligations are not then due and owing or that no Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing; and (viii) any
other act or thing or omission, or delay to do any other act or thing, which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the
risk of Guarantor as an obligor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations.

 

    	3

    	 

    

 

4.    Waivers
by Guarantor. Guarantor hereby waives, for the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders: (a) any right to require
Administrative Agent and/or any Lender, as a condition of payment or performance by Guarantor, to (i) proceed against Company
or any other Loan Party or any other Person, (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security held from Company, any such other
Loan Party or any other Person, (iii) proceed against or have resort to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the
books of Administrative Agent and/or any Lender in favor of Company, any such other Loan Party or any other Person, or (iv) pursue
any other remedy in the power of Administrative Agent or any Lender whatsoever; (b) any defense arising by reason of the
incapacity, lack of authority or any disability or other defense of Company or any such other Loan Party, including any defense
based on or arising out of the lack of validity or the unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement or instrument
relating thereto or by reason of the cessation of the liability of Company or any such other Loan Party from any cause other than
the (i) indefeasible payment in full, in Cash, of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent and un-asserted indemnification
and expense reimbursement claims) and (ii) that no Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing; (c) any defense
based upon any statute or rule of Law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other
respects more burdensome than that of the principal; (d) any defense based upon Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s
errors or omissions in the administration of the Guaranteed Obligations, except behavior which amounts to bad faith or willful
misconduct; (e) (i) any principles or provisions of Law, statutory or otherwise, which are or might be in conflict with
the terms hereof and any legal or equitable discharge of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, (ii) the benefit of any
statute of limitations affecting Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, (iii) any rights to set-offs,
recoupments and counterclaims, and (iv) promptness, diligence and any requirement that Administrative Agent or any Lender
protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien or any property subject thereto; (f) notices, demands, presentments,
protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of any action or inaction, including acceptance hereof, notices
of default hereunder or any agreement or instrument related thereto, notices of any renewal, extension or modification of the
Guaranteed Obligations or any agreement related thereto, notices of any extension of credit to Company and notices of any
of the matters referred to in Section 3 above and any right to consent to any thereof; and (g) any defenses or
benefits that may be derived from or afforded by Law which limit the liability of or exonerate guarantors or sureties, or which
may conflict with the terms hereof.

 

5.    Guarantor’s
Rights. Until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent and un-asserted indemnification and expense reimbursement claims)
shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, in Cash, Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy, direct or indirect, that
Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Company or any other Loan Party or any of their respective assets in connection
with this Guaranty or the performance by such other Loan Party of its obligations under the Loan Documents, as the case may be,
in each case whether such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise and
including without limitation (a) any right of subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification that Guarantor or any other Loan
Party now has or may hereafter have against Company with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, (b) any right to enforce,
or to participate in, any claim, right or remedy that Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against
Company or any other Person, and (c) any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any Collateral or security now or hereafter
held by Administrative Agent or any Lender. In addition, until the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent and un-asserted
indemnification and expense reimbursement claims) shall have been indefeasibly paid in full, in Cash, Guarantor shall withhold
from exercising any right of contribution that Guarantor may have against any other Loan Party. Guarantor further agrees that,
to the extent the waiver or agreement to withhold from exercising Guarantor’s rights set forth herein is found by a court
of competent jurisdiction to be void or voidable for any reason, any such rights that Guarantor may have against Company, any Collateral
or security or any other Loan Party, in each case pursuant to the Loan Documents, shall be junior and subordinate to any rights
Administrative Agent and/or any Lender may have against Company, to all right, title and interest Administrative Agent and/or any
Lender may have in any such Collateral or security, and to any right Administrative Agent and/or any Lender may have against such
other Loan Party, in each case pursuant to the Loan Documents. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of any such
rights at any time when all Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing (other than contingent and un-asserted indemnification and
expense reimbursement claims) shall not have been indefeasibly paid in full, in Cash, such amount shall be held in trust for Administrative
Agent on behalf of Lenders and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders to be credited and
applied against the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof.

 

    	4

    	 

    

 

6.    Subordination
of Other Obligations. Any Indebtedness of Company now or hereafter held by Guarantor is hereby subordinated in right of payment
to the Guaranteed Obligations, and any such Indebtedness collected or received by Guarantor after an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing shall be held in trust for Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders and shall forthwith be paid over to Administrative
Agent for the benefit of Lenders to be credited and applied against the Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing but without affecting,
impairing or limiting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under any other provision hereof.

 

7.    Continuing Guaranty.
This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in effect until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than contingent
and un-asserted indemnification and expense reimbursement claims) shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in Cash. Guarantor
hereby irrevocably waives any right to revoke this Guaranty as to future transactions giving rise to any Guaranteed Obligations.

 

8.    Authority of Guarantor
or Company. No Lender shall be required to inquire into the capacity or powers of Guarantor or Company or the officers, directors
or any agents acting or purporting to act on behalf of any of them.

 

9.    Financial Condition
of Company. Any Term Loan may be made to Company or continued from time to time without notice to or authorization from Guarantor
regardless of the financial or other condition of Company at the time of any such making or continuation. Neither Administrative
Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to disclose or discuss with Guarantor Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s
assessment of the financial condition of Company. Guarantor has adequate means to obtain information from Company on a continuing
basis concerning the financial condition of Company and its ability to perform its obligations under the Loan Documents. Guarantor
assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Company and of all circumstances bearing
upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes any duty on the part of Administrative
Agent or any Lender to disclose any matter, fact or thing relating to the business, operations or conditions of Company now known
or hereafter known by Administrative Agent or such Lender.

 

10.  Bankruptcy, etc.

 

(a)   So long as any Guaranteed
Obligations remain outstanding, Guarantor shall not, without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent acting pursuant
to the instructions of Required Lenders, commence or join with any other Person in commencing any bankruptcy, reorganization or
insolvency case or proceeding of or against Company or any other Loan Party. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be
reduced, limited, impaired, discharged, deferred, suspended or terminated by any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary,
involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of Company or any other Loan Party
or by any defense which Company or any other such Loan Party may have by reason of the order, decree or decision of any court or
administrative body resulting from any such proceeding.

 

    	5

    	 

    

 

(b)  Guarantor acknowledges
and agrees that any interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations which accrues after the commencement of any case or proceeding
referred to in Section 10(a) above (or, if interest on any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations ceases to accrue by
operation of Law by reason of the commencement of such case or proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion
of the Guaranteed Obligations if such case or proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Guaranteed Obligations
because the intention of Guarantor, Administrative Agent and Lenders is that the Guaranteed Obligations which are guaranteed by
Guarantor pursuant hereto should be determined without regard to any rule of Law or order which may relieve Company of any portion
of such Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor will permit any trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, debtor in possession, assignee for the
benefit of creditors or similar Person to pay Administrative Agent, or allow the claim of Administrative Agent in respect of, any
such interest accruing after the date on which such case or proceeding is commenced.

 

(c)   In the event that
all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are paid by Company, the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall continue and
remain in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, in the event that all or any part of such payment(s) are
rescinded or recovered directly or indirectly from Administrative Agent or any Lender as a preference, fraudulent transfer or otherwise,
and any such payments which are so rescinded or recovered shall constitute Guaranteed Obligations for all purposes hereunder.

 

11.  Payments to Be
Free and Clear. In furtherance of the provisions of the Loan Agreement, all sums payable by Guarantor hereunder shall (except
to the extent required by Law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax (other
than a Tax on the overall net income of Administrative Agent or any Lender) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by
or within the United States of America or any political subdivision in or of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction
from or to which a payment is made by or on behalf of Guarantor or by any federation or organization of which the United States
of America or any such jurisdiction is a member at the time of payment. In furtherance of the provisions of the Loan Agreement,
if Guarantor is required by Law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any such Tax from any sum paid or payable hereunder:
(i) Guarantor shall notify Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as Guarantor
becomes aware of it; (ii) Guarantor shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment
to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on Guarantor) for Guarantor’s own account or (if that liability is imposed
on Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of Administrative Agent or such Lender;
(iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by Guarantor in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding
or payment is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding
or payment, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would
have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment been required or made; and (iv) as soon as reasonably practicable
after the date of such payment, Guarantor shall deliver to Administrative Agent evidence of such deduction, withholding or payment
and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other authority.

 

    	6

    	 

    

 

12.  Further Assurances.
Guarantor agrees, upon the reasonable prior written request of Administrative Agent, to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent,
from time to time, any additional instruments or documents or to take any further actions, from time to time, considered reasonably
necessary by Administrative Agent to cause this Guaranty to be, become or remain valid and effective in accordance with its terms.

 

13.  Entire Agreement.
This Guaranty, together with the other Loan Documents, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto and thereto
with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, respectively.

 

14.  Headings.
The headings in this Guaranty are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of this
Guaranty.

 

15.  Severability.
Whenever possible, each provision of this Guaranty shall be interpreted in a manner so as to be valid and enforceable under applicable
Law, but if any provision of this Guaranty shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable
under applicable Law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent so determined, without affecting the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Guaranty.

 

16.  Successors and
Assigns. This Guaranty and all obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of Guarantor
(including a debtor-in-possession on behalf of Guarantor) and shall, together with the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent,
for itself and for the benefit of Lenders, hereunder, inure to the benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders, all future holders
of any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations or Guaranteed Obligations and their respective successors and assigns. No sales
of participations, other sales, assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument evidencing
the Obligations or Guaranteed Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner affect the rights of Administrative
Agent and Lenders hereunder. Guarantor may not assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation under
this Guaranty without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent. This Guaranty shall not be assignable by Administrative
Agent except in connection with an assignment of its rights and obligations as Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms
of the Loan Agreement.

 

    	7

    	 

    

 

17.  No Waiver; Cumulative
Remedies; Amendments. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed
to have waived any of its rights or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in a writing signed by Administrative
Agent and then only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Administrative Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of Lenders,
of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Administrative
Agent would otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising, on the part of Administrative
Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial
exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies hereunder are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are
not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by Law. None of the terms or provisions of this Guaranty may be waived, altered,
modified, supplemented or amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Administrative Agent and Guarantor.

 

18.  Expenses.
Guarantor agrees to promptly reimburse Administrative Agent for actual reasonable, documented and out-of-pocket expenses incurred
by Administrative Agent in connection with the administration and enforcement of this Guaranty; provided, that neither Guarantor
nor any Loan Party shall have any obligation to pay or reimburse fees or expenses of Administrative Agent or any Lender except
to the extent required under Section 12.04 of the Loan Agreement.

 

19.  [Intentionally Reserved]

 

20.  GOVERNING LAW.
THIS GUARANTY AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401
AND SECTION 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATION LAWS) THEREOF.

 

21.  VENUE. ALL
JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST GUARANTOR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING HERETO, MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT
OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION IN THE STATE, COUNTY AND CITY OF NEW YORK. BY EXECUTING AND DELIVERING THIS GUARANTY, GUARANTOR IRREVOCABLY
(A) ACCEPTS GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE OF SUCH COURTS; (B) WAIVES ANY DEFENSE
OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS; (C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF ALL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED
OR CERTIFIED MAIL, RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED, TO GUARANTOR AT GUARANTOR’S ADDRESS PROVIDED BELOW GUARANTOR’S SIGNATURE
HERETO; (D) AGREES THAT SERVICE AS PROVIDED IN CLAUSE (C) ABOVE IS SUFFICIENT TO CONFER PERSONAL JURISDICTION
OVER GUARANTOR IN ANY SUCH PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT, AND OTHERWISE CONSTITUTES EFFECTIVE AND BINDING SERVICE IN EVERY RESPECT;
AND (E) AGREES ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS RETAIN THE RIGHT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR
TO BRING PROCEEDINGS AGAINST GUARANTOR IN THE COURTS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

 

    	8

    	 

    

 

22.  WAIVER OF JURY
TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING
HEREUNDER OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING
OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS,
TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT
(A) THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO THE LOAN AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, (B) IT HAS ALREADY
RELIED ON THIS WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS GUARANTY, AND (C) IT WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THIS WAIVER IN ITS RELATED FUTURE
DEALINGS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER WARRANTS AND REPRESENTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT
KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING
THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING (OTHER THAN BY A MUTUAL WRITTEN WAIVER SPECIFICALLY REFERRING TO THIS CLAUSE
AND EXECUTED BY EACH PARTY HERETO), AND THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS
HERETO. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS GUARANTY MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.
