GUARANTOR'S WAIVERS (a) Guarantor waives any right to require WFBC to: (i) proceed against any Obligor or any other Person; (ii) marshal assets or proceed against or exhaust any security granted by any Obligor or any other Person; (iii) give notice of the terms, time and place of any public or private sale or other disposition of personal property security granted by any Obligor or any other Person; (iv) take any other action or pursue any other remedy in WFBC’s power; or (v) make any presentment or demand for performance, or give any notice of nonperformance, protest, notice of protest or notice of dishonor hereunder or in connection with any obligations or evidences of indebtedness held by WFBC as security for or which constitute in whole or in part the Obligations guaranteed hereunder, or in connection with the creation of new or additional Obligations. (b) Guarantor waives any defense to its obligations hereunder based upon or arising by reason of: (i) any disability or other defense of any Obligor or any other Person; (ii) the cessation or limitation from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full, of the Obligations or the indebtedness of any other Person; (iii) any lack of authority of any officer, director, partner, agent or any other Person acting or purporting to act on behalf of any Obligor, if it is a corporation, partnership or other type of entity, or any defect in the formation of any Obligor; (iv) the application by any Obligor of the proceeds of any Obligations for purposes other than the purposes represented by such Obligor to, or intended or understood by, WFBC or Guarantor; (v) any act or omission by WFBC which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of any Obligor or any portion of the Obligations by operation of law or otherwise, or which in any way impairs or suspends any rights or remedies of WFBC against any Obligor; (vi) any impairment of the value of any interest in any security for the Obligations or any portion thereof, including without limitation, the failure to obtain or maintain perfection or recordation of any interest in any such security, the release of any such security without substitution, or the failure to preserve the value of, or to comply with applicable law in disposing of, any such security; (vii) any modification of the Obligations, in any form whatsoever, including any modification made after revocation hereof to any Obligations incurred prior to such revocation, and including without limitation the renewal, extension, acceleration or other change in time for payment of, or other change in the terms of, the Obligations or any portion thereof; or (viii) any requirement that WFBC give any notice of acceptance of this Guaranty. Until all Obligations have been paid in full, Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, and Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy which WFBC now has or may hereafter have against any Obligor or any other Person, and waives any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by WFBC. Guarantor further waives all rights and defenses Guarantor may have arising out of (A) any election of remedies by WFBC, even though that election of remedies, such as a non-judicial foreclosure with respect to any security for any portion of the Obligations, destroys Guarantor’s rights of subrogation or Guarantor’s rights to proceed against any Obligor for reimbursement, or (B) any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of any Obligor in connection with any anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging the Obligations, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including any rights Guarantor may have to a fair market value hearing to determine the size of a deficiency following any foreclosure sale or other disposition of any real property security for any portion of the Obligations.
Defenses Waived To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any Loan Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower, any Loan Guarantor or any other Obligated Party, other than the Payment in Full of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Obligated Party, or any other Person. Each Loan Guarantor confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Loan Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty, except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been Paid in Full. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Loan Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security.
Amendments; Waivers; Additional Grantors; Etc (a) Subject to Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement, no amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any departure by any Grantor herefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent and the Grantors, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to exercise, and no delay in exercising any right hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. (b) Upon the execution and delivery, or authentication, by any Person of a security agreement supplement in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto (each a “Security Agreement Supplement”), (i) such Person shall be referred to as an “Additional Grantor” and shall be and become a Grantor hereunder, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to “Grantor” shall also mean and be a reference to such Additional Grantor, and each reference in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to “Collateral” shall also mean and be a reference to the Collateral of such Additional Grantor, and (ii) the supplemental schedules I through IV attached to each Security Agreement Supplement shall be incorporated into and become a part of and supplement Schedules I through IV, respectively, hereto, and the Administrative Agent may attach such supplemental schedules to such Schedules; and each reference to such Schedules shall mean and be a reference to such Schedules as supplemented pursuant to each Security Agreement Supplement.
