Guaranteed Obligations Not Reduced by Offset The Guaranteed Obligations and the liabilities and obligations of Guarantor to Lender hereunder, shall not be reduced, discharged or released because or by reason of any existing or future offset, claim or defense of Borrower, or any other party, against Lender or against payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether such offset, claim or defense arises in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations (or the transactions creating the Guaranteed Obligations) or otherwise.
Guaranteed Obligations The Guarantor, in consideration of the execution and delivery of the Note Purchase Agreement and the purchase of the Notes by the Purchasers, hereby irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely guarantees, on a continuing basis, to each Noteholder as and for the Guarantor’s own debt, until final and indefeasible payment of the amounts referred to in clause (a) below has been made:
(a) the due and punctual payment by the Company of the principal of, and the Make-Whole Amount (if any) and interest on, the Notes at any time outstanding and the due and punctual payment of all other amounts payable, and all other Indebtedness owing, by the Company to the Noteholders under the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes (including, without limitation, any monetary obligations incurred during the pendency of any bankruptcy, insolvency, winding-up, receivership or other similar proceeding regardless of whether allowed or allowable in such proceeding including, without limitation, interest accrued on the Notes during any such proceeding), in each case when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, pursuant to mandatory or optional prepayment, by acceleration or otherwise, all in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof and thereof; it being the intent of the Guarantor that the guarantee set forth herein shall be a continuing guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection; and
(b) the punctual and faithful performance, keeping, observance, and fulfillment by the Company of all duties, agreements, covenants and obligations of the Company contained in the Note Purchase Agreement and the Notes. All of the obligations set forth in clause (a) and clause (b) of this Section 2.1 are referred to herein as the “Guaranteed Obligations.”

To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Guarantor and each Secured Creditor (by its acceptance of the benefits of this Guaranty) hereby irrevocably agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed by such Guarantor shall be limited to such amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise) liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any rights to contribution pursuant to any agreement providing for an equitable contribution among such Guarantor and the other Guarantors, result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor in respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.
Prior Payment of Guaranteed Obligations In any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party, each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Guaranteed Obligations (including all interest and expenses accruing after the commencement of a proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, whether or not constituting an allowed claim in such proceeding (“Post Petition Interest”)) before such Guarantor receives payment of any Subordinated Obligations.
