For the further avoidance of doubt, Lessor shall have no obligations with respect to such Excess Amounts or accrued interest except as expressly provided for in this Guaranty, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Lessor need not keep any Excess Amounts or accrued interest in a separate account or otherwise segregate any Excess Amounts or accrued interest from its general assets and obligations (it being the express agreement of the parties that in exchange for Lessor's obligation to pay interest on the Excess Amounts as provided above Lessor shall have the full benefit and use of the Excess Amounts and accrued interest, which it may invest, reinvest, or not invest, all as Lessor may see fit in its absolute discretion, without having to account to Guarantor for the same). Any Excess Amounts and accrued interest shall be applied by Lessor only to Guaranteed Obligations under this Guaranty, and only following the giving of a Demand Notice and the expiration of the Demand Period with respect thereto. The parties agree that their fundamental agreement and intent hereunder is that the Guaranteed Obligations be at all times unconditionally secured by full access to the funds intended to be available under the Credit (as originally contemplated hereby) even following any breach hereunder by Lessor. Accordingly, the parties agree that no payment of the Excess Amounts shall be paid to Guarantor except to the extent provided in clauses (1) through (3) above and that any court in determining remedies for the breach by Lessor hereunder shall not order payment of such amounts over to Guarantor except consistent with clauses (1) through (3) above but, rather, shall consider alternative remedies consistent with the parties' intent, including, without limitation, maintaining the Excess Amounts and accrued interest thereon which are not required to be paid to Guarantor under any of clauses (1) through (3) above in a separate account such that Lessor shall have the full benefit thereof without condition or contingency—other than the conditions provided in this Guaranty that the Guaranteed Obligations shall not have been actually paid, that a Demand Notice shall be given as provided above, and that the ensuing Demand Period shall have expired. For the avoidance of doubt, as stated in clause (2) above, nothing in this paragraph shall prevent Guarantor from being entitled to immediate payment of the Excess Amounts if and when Guarantor provides a Substitute Credit in such form as is consistent with the proposed Bank terms of this Guaranty, and in Lessor's reasonable opinion, substantively identical in all respects to the original Credit (including, without limitation, providing for an available amount equal to the amount that would have been available under the original Credit at the time the Substitute Credit is an Acceptable Issuing Bank. If an Acceptable Issuing Bank is declared insolvent issued had Lessor (or taken over by its lawful assignees or transferees) not drawn on the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any governmental agency original Credit and, if such Substitute Credit provides for any reason or a transfer fee, the transfer fee does not meet exceed the standards transfer fee that was in effect under the original Credit), and such Substitute Credit is from an issuer reasonably acceptable to Lessor.
(b) Subject to Section 6 above and the terms of this subsection 8(b), Guarantor shall, from time to time, upon notice and demand and at the sole expense of Lessor or such other person who as Assignee of Lessor may be approved an Acceptable Issuing Bankthe then current beneficiary of the Credit (as the case may be, Tenant shall deliver a replacement Letter of Credit from another Bank approved by Landlord that meets the standards for an Acceptable Issuing Bank within the earlier of "Beneficiary"), either (i) thirty (30) days after notice from Landlord that cause the Bank does not meet issuer of the standard for an Acceptable Issuing BankCredit to consent to the transfer of the Credit to such person as Beneficiary may determine, or (ii) cause the date issuer of the Bank is declared insolvent Credit or taken over for another issuer reasonably acceptable to Lessor and Beneficiary to issue a Substitute Credit in the name of such further Assignee of Lessor as Beneficiary may determine. Lessor shall be solely responsible for, or, at Guarantor's option Lessor or Beneficiary shall reimburse Guarantor for, any reason fees anticipated to be charged by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation issuer for the transfer of a Credit or issuance of a replacement Credit. Subject to the foregoing, the parties' obligations under this section are absolute and, except for the requirement that an original Credit be surrendered to the issuer for amendment (in the case of a transfer) or cancellation (in the case of the issuance of a replacement Credit), unconditional. Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that in connection with any transaction between the Beneficiary and an Assignee of the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary may elect to hold the Credit in trust for its Assignee on such terms as the Beneficiary and such Assignee may agree.
(c) Only the following events shall be considered defaults by Guarantor under this Guaranty and entitle Lessor to draw upon the Credit: (i) Guarantor fails to make any payment of a Guaranteed Obligation required under this Guaranty within the Demand Period specified above or any other governmental agency. In addition, the Letter amount that Guarantor is required to pay under this Guaranty within 10 days of Credit shall expressly provide written demand from Lessor for the following:
applicable payment, (1ii) shall be “callable” at sight, irrevocable, and unconditional;
(2) shall be maintained in effect, whether through renewal or extension, Guarantor makes an assignment for the period from benefit of creditors, or becomes insolvent, or is the date subject of this Lease and continuing until a petition or proceeding under any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement of debts, insolvency, or receivership law, or Guarantor seeks to effectuate a bulk sale of its inventory, equipment, or assets, or any action is taken with a view to Guarantor's termination or the date (the “Letter termination of Credit Expiration Date”) that is one hundred twenty (120) days after the expiration its business, and, if any of the Term foregoing events is not voluntary, it continues for 60 days, or (as iii) notice is given by the Term may be extended). The Letter of Credit may be for one year period, provided the Letter of Credit is automatically extended for not less than a one year period unless the issuing Bank provides written notice to Landlord not less than sixty (60) days prior to the then expiration date issuer of the Letter of Credit that the issuing Bank Credit is not being renewed and Guarantor has not within 30 days of Lessor's receipt of the issuer's notice of nonrenewal replaced the existing letter of credit with a Substitute Credit (Guarantor agrees that it will arrange with the issuer of the Credit to directly provide to Guarantor any notice of nonrenewal given by the issuer and that Lessor's endeavoring to provide Guarantor with a copy of the nonrenewal notice or the fact of the nonrenewal shall be as a courtesy and accommodation to Guarantor and not renew or extend as a condition to any of Guarantor's obligations hereunder).
(d) The amount available under the Letter Credit shall decline according to a schedule mutually acceptable to Lessor and Guarantor providing for quarterly reductions proportionately relating to (but less than) the amount of CreditRental Payments scheduled to come due from Lessee during the Initial Term of the Lease. If, in which case Tenant shall deliver to Landlord a replacement Letter of Credit not less than thirty (30) days prior pursuant to the scheduled expiration date terms of this Guaranty, Guarantor is required but fails to make any Rental Payment for or on behalf of Lessee within the Demand Period specified in Section 1, Lessor may notify the issuer of the Credit that the amount available under the Credit shall stop declining and shall remain fixed for the duration of the Initial Term at the amount then existing Letter of Credit held by Landlord without any action whatsoever on available under the part of Landlord;
(3) shall be fully assignable by Landlord, its successors, and assignees of its interest in the Leased Premises;

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if Landlord at any time successfully draws on the L-C and is holding cash proceeds thereof that have not been applied to Tenant’s obligations under this Lease, Tenant may provide Landlord with a replacement L-C that satisfies the obligations under this Section 5.A, and Landlord shall refund the cash proceeds within five (5) business days of the date of Landlord’s receipt of such replacement L-C. The L-C shall also provide that Landlord may, at any time and without notice to Tenant and without first obtaining Tenant’s consent thereto, transfer (one or more times) all or any portion of its interest in and to the L-C to another party, person or entity that is a successor to Landlord, an affiliate or otherwise related to Landlord or a lender, regardless of whether or not such transfer is from or as a part of the assignment by Landlord of its rights and interests in and to this Lease.

In connection with any such transfer of the L-C by Landlord, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, execute and submit to the Bank such applications, documents and instruments as may be necessary to effectuate such transfer and, Tenant shall be responsible for paying the Bank’s transfer and processing fees in connection therewith; provided that, Landlord shall have the right (in its sole discretion), but not the obligation, to pay such fees on behalf of Tenant, in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within ten (10) days after Tenant’s receipt of an invoice from Landlord therefor. Landlord and Tenant (1) acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the L-C or any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof be deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” under any law applicable to security deposits in the commercial context, including, but not limited to, Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code, as such Section now exists or as it may be hereafter amended or succeeded (the “Security Deposit Laws”), (2) acknowledge and agree that the L-C (including any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof) is not intended to serve as a security deposit, and the Security Deposit Laws shall have no applicability or relevancy thereto, and (3) waive any and all rights, duties and obligations that any such party may now, or in the future will, have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives and relinquishes the provisions of Section 1950.7 of the California Civil Code and any successor statute, and all other provisions of law, now or hereafter in effect, which (x) establish the time frame by which a landlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (y) provide that a landlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by a tenant or to clean the premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified in this Paragraph 5.A and/or those sums reasonably necessary to (a) compensate Landlord for any loss or damage caused by Tenant’s breach of this Lease, including any damages Landlord suffers following termination of this Lease, and/or (b) compensate Landlord for any and all damages arising out of, or incurred in connection with, the termination of this Lease, including, without limitation, those specifically identified in Section 1951.2 of the California Civil Code.

(B) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Paragraph 2(b)(iii), the L-C Amount shall be reduced as follows:
(C) The reduction of the L-C Amount is subject to each of the following conditions (collectively, the “Reduction Condition”):

If at any time Tenant’s quarterly Financial Report reflects that Tenant no longer satisfies the EBITDA Condition, Tenant must deliver a new L-C in an amount equal to $1,000,000.00 within thirty (30) days following Landlord’s written notice thereof, in which event the provisions of this Paragraph 2(b) shall then again apply.
(E) If, as a result of any drawing by Landlord of all or any portion of the L-C, the amount of the L-C shall be less than the L-C Amount, Tenant shall, within five (5) business days thereafter, provide Landlord with additional letter(s) of credit in an amount equal to the deficiency, and any such additional letter(s) of credit shall comply with all of the provisions of this Paragraph 2(b).

If the L-C is not timely renewed, or if Tenant fails to maintain the L-C in the amount and in accordance with the terms set forth in this Paragraph 2(b), Landlord shall have the right to present the L-C to the Bank in accordance with the terms of this Paragraph 2(b), and the proceeds of the L-C may be applied by Landlord against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that is not paid when due and/or to pay for all losses and damages that Landlord has suffered or that Landlord reasonably estimates that it will suffer as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease. In such event (I) any unused proceeds shall constitute the property of Landlord (and not Tenant’s property or, in the event of a receivership, conservatorship, or a bankruptcy filing by, or on behalf of, Tenant, property of such receivership, conservatorship or Tenant’s bankruptcy estate) and need not be segregated from Landlord’s other assets, and (II) Landlord agrees to pay to Tenant within thirty (30) days after the L-C Expiration Date the amount of any proceeds of the L-C received by Landlord and not applied against any Rent payable by Tenant under this Lease that was not paid when due or used to pay for any losses and/or damages suffered by Landlord (or reasonably estimated by Landlord that it will suffer) as a result of any breach or default by Tenant under this Lease; provided, however, that if prior to the L-C Expiration Date a voluntary petition is filed by Tenant, or an involuntary petition is filed against Tenant by any of Tenant’s creditors, under the Bankruptcy Code, then Landlord shall not be obligated to make such payment in the amount of the unused L-C proceeds until either all preference issues relating to payments under this Lease have been resolved in such bankruptcy or reorganization case or such bankruptcy or reorganization case has been dismissed.
(iv) The L-C shall also provide that Landlord may, at any time and without notice to Tenant and without first obtaining Tenant’s consent thereto, transfer (one or more times) all or any portion of its interest in and to the L-C to another party, person or entity, regardless of whether or not such transfer is from or as a part of the assignment by Landlord of its rights and interests in and to this Lease. In the event of a transfer of Xxxxxxxx’s interest in under this Lease, Landlord shall transfer the L-C, in whole or in part, to the transferee and thereupon Landlord shall, without any further agreement between the parties, be released by Tenant from all liability therefor, and it is agreed that the provisions hereof shall apply to every transfer or assignment of the whole of said L-C to a new sublandlord. In connection with any such transfer of the L-C by Landlord, Tenant shall, at Tenant’s sole cost and expense, execute and submit to the Bank such applications, documents and instruments as may be reasonably necessary to effectuate such transfer and, Tenant shall be responsible for paying the Bank’s transfer and processing fees in connection therewith; provided that, Landlord shall have the right (in its sole discretion), but not the obligation, to pay such fees on behalf of Tenant, in which case Tenant shall reimburse Landlord within ten (10) days after Xxxxxx’s receipt of an invoice from Landlord therefor.
(v) Landlord and Tenant (1) acknowledge and agree that in no event or circumstance shall the L-C or any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof be deemed to be or treated as a “security deposit” under any law applicable to security deposits in the commercial context, as such Section now exists or as it may be hereafter amended or succeeded (the “Security Deposit Laws”), (2) acknowledge and agree that the L-C (including any renewal thereof or substitute therefor or any proceeds thereof) is not intended to serve as a security deposit, and the Security Deposit Laws shall have no applicability or relevancy thereto, and (3) waive any and all rights, duties and obligations that any such party may now, or in the future will, have relating to or arising from the Security Deposit Laws. Tenant hereby irrevocably waives and relinquishes the provisions of any law, now or hereafter in effect, which (x) establish the time frame by which a landlord must refund a security deposit under a lease, and/or (y) provide that a landlord or sublandlord may claim from a security deposit only those sums reasonably necessary to remedy defaults in the payment of rent, to repair damage caused by a tenant or to clean the premises, it being agreed that Landlord may, in addition, claim those sums specified in this Paragraph 2(b) and those sums reasonably necessary to (A) compensate Landlord for any loss or damage caused by Xxxxxx’s breach of this Lease, including any damages Landlord suffers following termination of this Lease, and/or (B) compensate Landlord for any and all damages arising out of, or incurred in connection with, the termination of this Lease.
(vi) Xxxxxx agrees not to interfere in any way with any payment to Landlord of the proceeds of the L-C, either prior to or following a “draw” by Landlord of all or any portion of the L-C, regardless of whether any dispute exists between Xxxxxx and Landlord as to Landlord’s right to draw down all or any portion of the L-C. No condition or term of this Lease shall be deemed to render the L-C conditional and thereby afford the Bank a justification for failing to honor a drawing upon such L-C in a timely manner. Tenant shall not request or instruct the Bank of any L-C to refrain from paying sight draft(s) drawn under such L-C.
(vii) Tenant’s sole remedy in connection with the improper presentment or payment of sight drafts drawn under any L-C shall be the right to obtain from Landlord a refund of the amount of any sight draft(s) that were improperly presented or the proceeds of which were misapplied, together with reasonable interest and reasonable actual out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees, provided that at the time of such refund, Tenant increases the amount of such L-C to the amount (if any) then required under the applicable provisions of this Lease. Tenant acknowledges that the presentment of sight drafts drawn under any L-C, or the Bank’s payment of sight drafts drawn under such L-C, could not under any circumstances cause Tenant injury that could not be remedied by an award of money damages, and that the recovery of money damages would be an adequate remedy therefor. In the event Tenant shall be entitled to a refund as aforesaid and Landlord shall fail to make such payment within ten (10) business days after demand, Tenant shall have the right to deduct the amount thereof together with reasonable interest thereon from the next installment(s) of Base Rent.
