Guarantor hereby represents, covenants and warrants that the obligations of Securus under the RPA and the Option Agreement, and the obligations of Lemma and Xxxxxxx under their respective Guarantees, will remain in full force and effect following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Securities and Exchange Agreement and will in no way be affected thereby.

3. Guarantor represents, covenants and warrants that, if Borrower defaults under any of the Loan Documents, it will attorn to the Lender and recognize Lender as the Purchaser under the RPA and the Optionor under the Option Agreement. Lender, by virtue of Borrower’s default under the Loan Agreements, wil be deemed to have assumed and agreed to be bound, as substitute Borrower or Optionor, whichever is applicable, by the terms and conditions of said RPA and Option Agreement until the Maturity Date, except that such assumption shall not be deemed of itself an acknowledgment of Lender of the validity of any then existing claims of Securus and/or Excel against Borrower and/or any of its principals. All rights and obligations herein and hereunder to continue as though such default had not occurred had not been brought, except as aforesaid. Excel agrees to execute any and all documents, take any and all steps and deliver to Lender such further assurance, confirming the foregoing as Lender may reasonably request.

It is expressly understood that the waivers and agreements of the Guarantor constitute additional and cumulative benefits given to the Lender for its security and as an inducement for its extension of credit to the Borrower. The Lender may at any time and from time to time take any and all actions and enforce all rights and remedies available to it hereunder or under applicable law to collect from the Guarantor any amounts then due and payable hereunder by the Guarantor and to cause the Guarantor to fulfill its obligations hereunder.

11. Liability Unimpaired. The Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and the Guarantor hereby consents to and agrees to be bound by, any amendment or modification of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents or any other instrument made to or with the Lender by the Borrower, the Guarantor and/or any Other Guarantor.

12. Preservation of Loan Documents. The Guarantor will cause the Borrower to maintain and preserve the enforceability of the Loan Documents as the same may be modified and will not permit the Borrower to take or fail to take actions of any kind which might be the basis for a claim that the Guarantor has a defense to the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.

13. Security; Guarantor’s Events of Default. As security for any and all of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Guaranty, now existing or hereafter arising hereunder or otherwise (collectively, the “Liabilities”), the Guarantor hereby grants to the Lender a lien upon and a security interest in and to all of its right, title and assets of any kind or type including, but not limited to, Guarantor’s membership interests in Securus, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, and the proceeds thereof; and any all of its funds, securities, choses in action and any and all other forms of property whether real, personal or mixed, and any right, title or interest of the Guarantor therein or thereto, and the proceeds thereof.

14. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each, a “Guarantor’s Event of Default”): a) the Guarantor defaults under this Guaranty or any Loan Document or any other agreement with the Lender to which the Guarantor is a party; b) any representation or warranty made by the Guarantor herein or in any other Loan Document to which the Guarantor is a party is false or untrue as of the date such representation or warranty is made; c) the Guarantor commences any case, proceeding, or other action under any law of any jurisdiction relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, or relief of debtors or seeks to have an order for relief entered with respect to the Guarantor or seeks to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or seeks reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, liquidation, dissolution, composition or other relief with respect to the Guarantor or the Guarantor’s debts, or seeks the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, or other similar official for the Guarantor or for all or any substantial part of the Guarantor’s property; d) the Guarantor makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; e) there is commenced against the Guarantor, any case, proceeding or other action of the type referred to in clause (c) above or seeking the issuance of a warrant of attachment, execution, distraint, or similar process against all or any substantial part of the Guarantor’s property, which case, proceeding or other action results in an entry of an order for relief or is not dismissed, discharged or bonded within sixty (60) days of the commencement thereof; f) the Guarantor takes any action indicating the Guarantor’s consent to, approval of, or acquiescence in or in furtherance of, any of the acts set forth in clause (c) and (e) above; g) the death or incapacity of a Guarantor, if an individual; h) the Guarantor admits in writing the Guarantor’s inability to pay the Guarantor’s debts as they mature; or i) the existence or occurrence at any time of one or more conditions or events that, in the sole opinion of the Lender, has resulted or is reasonably likely to result in a material adverse change in the business, properties or financial condition of the Guarantor; then, any or all of the obligations of the Guarantor shall, at the Lender’s option, become (for the purpose of this Guaranty) immediately due and payable by the Guarantor, without demand or notice.

A default by Borrower and/or any Other Guarantor shall also constitute an Event of Default hereunder.

15. Indemnification; Payments; Certain Waivers.

The Guarantor further agrees that in the event any such payment is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by or on behalf of the Lender in defending or enforcing such continuance or reinstatement, as the case may be, shall constitute costs of enforcement, the payment of which is guaranteed by the Guarantor pursuant hereto and covered by the Guarantor’s indemnity pursuant to Paragraph 7 above.

17. Litigation; Compliance with Judgments.

21. Non-Waiver Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the Lender’s part in exercising any right, power or privilege under any of the Loan Documents, this Guaranty or any other document made to or with the Lender in connection with the Loan shall operate as a waiver of any such privilege, power or right or shall be deemed to constitute the Lender’s acquiescence in any default by the Borrower or the Guarantor under any of said documents. A waiver by the Lender of any right or remedy under any of the Loan Documents, this Guaranty or any other document made to or with the Lender in connection with the Loan on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which the Lender otherwise would have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies provided in said documents are cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

22. Transfers of Interests in Loan.

24. Severability. Any provision of this Guaranty, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, that, for any reason, in whole or in part, is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Guaranty (or the remaining portions of such provision) or the application thereof to any other person or circumstance, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision (or portion thereof) or the application thereof to any person or circumstance in any other jurisdiction.
