2.5.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the amount of the obligations payable by Guarantor under this Guarantee shall not exceed the Maximum Amount unless a court of competent jurisdiction adjudicates Guarantor’s obligations to be invalid, avoidable or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers), in which case the amount of the obligations payable by Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the lesser of the Maximum Amount or the maximum amount that could be guaranteed by Guarantor without rendering Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee invalid, avoidable or unenforceable under such applicable law.

(d)    which may at any time be imposed upon, incurred by or awarded against Agent or any Lender, in the event (and arising out of such circumstances) that any SPE Propco should raise any defense, counterclaim and/or allegation in any foreclosure action by Agent relative to any SPE Property any part thereof which is found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable decision to have been raised by Parent Guarantor or a SPE Propco in bad faith or to be without basis in fact or law;

Without limitation of the foregoing, the liability of Parent Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired in any respect by reason of any failure by Agent or any Lender to perfect or continue perfection of any lien or security interest in any collateral or any delay by Agent or any Lender in perfecting any such lien or security interest.  As to interest, fees and expenses, whether arising before or after the commencement of any case with respect to Borrowers under the United States Bankruptcy Code or any similar statute, Parent Guarantor shall be liable therefor, even if any Borrower’s liability for such amounts does not, or ceases to, exist by operation of law.  Each Parent Guarantor acknowledges that Agent and Lenders have not made any representations to any Parent Guarantor with respect to Borrowers, any other Obligor or otherwise in connection with the execution and delivery by Parent Guarantor of this Guarantee and Parent Guarantor are not in any respect relying upon Agent or any Lender or any statements by Agent or any Lender in connection with this Guarantee.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any of the terms of any of the other Financing Agreements, the liability of Parent Guarantor for the entire Guaranteed Obligations shall mature and become immediately due and payable, even if the liability of Borrowers or any other Obligor therefor does not, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and the exercise by Agent of remedies against Borrowers or against Parent Guarantor under the Parent Pledge Agreement.

Parent Guarantor shall continue to be liable hereunder until Agent agrees to terminate this Guarantee pursuant to a written agreement satisfactory to Agent. All Guaranteed Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance on this Guarantee.

"Voluntary Conversion. At any time, this Note shall be convertible, in whole or in part, into shares of Common Stock at the option of the Holder, from time to time (subject to the conversion limitations set forth in Section 4(d) hereof). The Holder shall effect conversions by delivering to the Company a Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex A (each, a "Notice of Conversion"), specifying therein the principal amount of this Note to be converted and the date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the "Conversion Date").

No ink-original Notice of Conversion shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Conversion form be required.To effect conversions hereunder, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless the entire principal amount of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, has been so converted. Conversions hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding principal amount of this Note in an amount equal to the applicable conversion. The Holder and the Company shall maintain a Conversion Schedule showing the principal amount(s) converted and the date of such conversion(s). The Company may deliver an objection to any Notice of Conversion within one (1) Business Day of delivery of such Notice of Conversion. In the event of any dispute or discrepancy, the records of the Holder shall be controlling and determinative in the absence of manifest error. The Holder, and any assignee by acceptance of this Note, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following conversion of a portion of this Note, the unpaid and unconverted principal amount of this Note may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof."

Each party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of process and consents to process being served in any such suit, action or proceeding by mailing a copy thereof via registered or certified mail or overnight delivery (with evidence of delivery) to such party at the address in effect for notices to it under this Amendment and agrees that such service shall constitute good and sufficient service of process and notice thereof. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit in any way any right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. If either party shall commence an action, suit or proceeding to enforce any provisions of this Amendment, then the prevailing party in such action, suit or proceeding shall be reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses incurred with the investigation, preparation and prosecution of such action or proceeding.

6. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Amendment is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable.
 
7. No Interpretation Against Drafter. This Amendment is the product of negotiations between the parties hereto represented by counsel and any rules of construction relating to interpretation against the drafter of an agreement shall not apply to this Amendment and are expressly waived.
 
8. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to each other party, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or by e-mail delivery of a ".pdf" format data file, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such facsimile or ".pdf" signature page were an original thereof.
