(a) any amendment, modification, addition, deletion, supplement or renewal to or other change in the Obligations, the Lease or any other Operative Document or any of the agreements referred to in any thereof, or any other instrument or agreement applicable to any Operative Document or any of the parties to such agreements, or to the Aircraft, or any assignment, mortgage or transfer thereof or of any interest therein, or any furnishing or acceptance of additional security for, guarantee of, or right of offset with respect to, any of the Obligations; or the failure or release of any security or the failure of Lessor to perfect or insure any interest in any collateral, including the Collateral;
(b) any failure, omission or delay on the part of Lessee or Lessor to conform or comply with any term of any instrument or agreement referred to in clause (a) above;

(f) any defect in the title, compliance with specifications, condition, design, operation or fitness for use of or any damage to or loss or destruction of, or any interruption or cessation in the use of the Aircraft or any part thereof by Lessee or any other Person for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, any governmental prohibition or restriction, condemnation, requisition, seizure or any other act on the part of any governmental or military authority, or any act of God or of the public enemy) regardless of the duration thereof (even though such duration would otherwise constitute a frustration of a lease), whether or not resulting from accident and whether or not without fault on the part of Lessee or any other Person;

Nothing herein shall prohibit Lessor from exercising its rights against the Guarantor or any other Person simultaneously, jointly or severally. The Guarantor shall be bound by each and every ruling, order and judgment obtained by Lessor in respect of any of the obligations guaranteed hereunder whether or not the Guarantor is a party to the action or proceeding in which such ruling, order or judgment is issued or rendered.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall remain absolute and unconditional as described above:
(a) at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(e) any of the Obligations shall be determined to be void or voidable (including, without limitation, for the benefit of any creditor of any Guarantor) or shall be subordinated to the claims of any Person (including, without limitation, any creditor of any Guarantor). With respect to its obligations hereunder, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any Lender exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against any Person under any of the Loan Documents, any Swap Contract or any Treasury Management Agreement between any Loan Party and any Lender, or any Affiliate of a Lender, or any other agreement or instrument referred to in the Loan Documents, such Swap Contracts or such Treasury Management Agreements, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Obligations.
