Non-Voluntary Provisions 2.10.1 This Agreement incorporates certain rates, terms and conditions that were not voluntarily negotiated by SBC-13STATE, but instead resulted from determinations made in arbitrations under Section 252 of the Act or from other requirements of regulatory agencies or state law (individually and collectively, a “Non-Voluntary Arrangement”). SBC-13STATE has identified some, but not all, of the Non-Voluntary Arrangements contained in this Agreement, by designating such provisions with asterisks. If any Non-Voluntary Arrangement is modified as a result of any order or finding by the FCC, the appropriate Commission or a court of competent jurisdiction, any Party may, by providing written notice to the other Party, require that any affected Non-Voluntary Arrangement (and any related rates, terms and conditions) be deleted or renegotiated, as applicable, in good faith and this Agreement amended accordingly. If such modifications to this Agreement are not executed within sixty (60) calendar days after the date of such notice, a Party may pursue its rights under Section 10. 2.10.2 The Parties acknowledge that the Non-Voluntary Arrangements contained in this Agreement shall not be available in any state other than the state that originally imposed/required such Non- Voluntary Arrangement. By way of example only, the Parties acknowledge that the PUC-OH’s imposition in Ohio of the Minimum Telephone Service Standards (and all terms and conditions relating thereto) shall not apply in or be “portable to" any state other than Ohio.

Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment by the Borrower or any other person to the Lender on account of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned or restored upon the insolvency or bankruptcy of the Borrower or any other obligor, guarantor, endorser or surety of the Obligations, all as though such payment had not been made; (d) Guarantor assents to all terms and agreements heretofore or hereafter made by the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Borrower with the Lender; (e) Guarantor hereby consents to the following and agrees that its liability will not be affected or impaired by (i) the exchange, release or surrender of any collateral to the Borrower or any other person, including any other guarantor, pledgor or grantor, or the waiver, release or subordination of any security interest, in whole or in part; (ii) the waiver or delay in the exercise of any of the Lender’s rights or remedies against the Borrower or any other person, including any other guarantor; (iii) the release of the Borrower or any other person, including any other person guaranteeing any portion of the Obligations; (iv) the renewal, extension or modification of the terms of any of the Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing the same, including, without limitation, an increase in the principal amount of the Obligations; and (v) the acceptance by the Lender of other guaranties; (f) Guarantor waives acceptance hereof, notice of acceptance hereof, and notice of acceleration of and intention to accelerate the Obligations, and waives presentment, demand, protest, notice of dishonor, notice of default, notice of nonpayment or protest in relation to any instrument evidencing any of the Obligations, and any other demands and notices required by law except as such waiver may be expressly prohibited by law; (g) This is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. The liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, unconditional, direct, complete and immediate and shall not be contingent upon the pursuit of any remedies against the Borrower or any other guarantor or person, nor against any security or lien available to the Lender, its successors, successors-in-title, endorsees or assigns. Guarantor waives any right to require that an action be brought against the Borrower or any other person or to require that resort be had to any security. In the event of a default under the Loan Documents, or any of them, the Lender shall have the right to enforce its rights, powers and remedies under any of the Loan Documents, in any order, and all rights, powers and remedies available to the Lender in such event shall be nonexclusive and cumulative of all other rights, powers and remedies provided thereunder or hereunder or by law or in equity. Accordingly, Guarantor hereby authorizes and empowers the Lender upon acceleration or maturity of the Obligations or any other Obligation, at its sole discretion, and without notice to Guarantor, to exercise any right or remedy which the Lender may have or any right or remedy hereinafter granted which the Lender may have as to any security. Guarantor expressly waives any right to require any action on the part of the Lender to proceed to collect amounts due under the Master Loan Agreement or any other Loan Documents. (h) Guarantor hereby subordinates any and all indebtedness of the Borrower now or hereafter owed to Guarantor to all obligations of the Borrower to the Lender, and agrees with the Lender that, from and after the occurrence of a default or event of default under any of the Loan Documents and for so long as such default or event of default exists, Guarantor shall not demand or accept any payment of principal or interest from any of the Borrower, shall not claim any offset or other reduction of Guarantor’s liability hereunder because of any such indebtedness and shall not take any action to obtain any of the security for the Obligations; provided, however, that, if the Lender so requests, such indebtedness shall be collected, enforced and received by Guarantor as trustee for the Lender and be paid over to the Lender on account of the Obligations of the Borrower to the Lender, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty; (i) Guarantor hereby authorizes the Lender, without notice to Guarantor, to apply all payments and credits received from the Borrower or from any guarantor or realized from any security in such manner and in such priority as the Lender in its sole judgment shall see fit to the Obligations which are the subject of this Guaranty; (j) The liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not in any manner be affected by reason of any action taken or not taken by the Lender, which action or inaction is consented and agreed to by Guarantor, nor by the partial or complete unenforceability or invalidity of any other guaranty or surety agreement, pledge, assignment, or other security for any of the Obligations. No delay in making demand on Guarantor for satisfaction of its liability hereunder shall prejudice the Lender’s right to enforce such satisfaction. All of the Lender’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative and any failure of the Lender to exercise any right hereunder shall not be construed as a waiver of the right to exercise the same or any other right at any time, and from time to time, thereafter; (k) This Guaranty shall be a continuing one and shall be binding upon Guarantor regardless of how long before or after the date hereof the Obligations are incurred until this Guaranty is terminated as provided in this Guaranty or is revoked by Guarantor prospectively as to future transactions, by written notice actually received by the Lender, and such revocation shall not be effective as to any indebtedness existing or committed for under the Master Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents at the time of actual receipt of such notice by the Lender, or as to any renewals, extensions or refinancings thereof. Guarantor agrees to rely exclusively on the right to revoke this Guaranty prospectively as to future transactions, in accordance with this Subsection 3(k), if at any time, in the opinion of the directors or officers of Guarantor, the benefits then being received by Guarantor in connection with this Guaranty are not sufficient to warrant the continuance of this Guaranty as to future indebtedness. Accordingly, so long as this Guaranty is not revoked prospectively in accordance with this Subsection 3(k), the Lender may rely conclusively on a continuing warranty, hereby made, that Guarantor continues to be benefited by this Guaranty and the Lender and the Lender shall have no duty to inquire into or confirm that the receipt of any such benefits, and this Guaranty shall be effective and enforceable by the Lender without regard to the receipt, nature or value of any such benefits; and (l) Until the Obligations are paid finally and in full, or this Guaranty is released as provided herein, Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights it may have to enforce any of the Lender’s rights or remedies or participate in any security now or hereafter held by the Lender, and any and all such other rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution or indemnification against the Borrower , or any other person having any manner of liability for the Borrower’s obligations to the Lender, whether or not arising hereunder, by agreement, at law or in equity.
