4. Right of Set-off. Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, each Lender is hereby irrevocably authorized at any time and from time to time without notice to any Guarantor, any such notice being expressly waived by such Guarantor, to set-off and appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor, or any part thereof in such amounts as such Lender may elect, against or on account of the obligations and liabilities of such Guarantor to such
4
Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and description of such Lender against such Guarantor, in any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Master Agreement, any CCB or any other Loan Document, whether or not such Lender or the Administrative Agent has made any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims may be contingent or unmatured. Each Lender shall notify such Guarantor and the Administrative Agent promptly of any such set-off and the application made by such Lender, as the case may be, of the proceeds thereof, which shall be made in accordance with Section 3.1.1 of the Intercreditor Agreement and any other applicable provision of any Loan Document; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender under this paragraph are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which such Lender may have.
5. No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by any Guarantor hereunder or any set-off or application of funds of any Guarantor by any Lender, no Guarantor shall be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of any Lender against the Borrower, or any other Loan Party or any collateral security or guarantee or right of offset held by any Lender for the payment of the Total Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Borrower or any other Loan Party in respect of payments made by such Guarantor hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Lenders by the Loan Parties on account of the Total Obligations are paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Total Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by such Guarantor in trust for the Lenders, segregated from other funds of such Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by such Guarantor, be turned over to the Lenders in the exact form received by such Guarantor (duly indorsed by such Guarantor, if required), to be applied against the Total Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Lenders may determine.
6. Amendments, etc. with respect to the Total Obligations; Waiver of Rights. Each Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against any Guarantor and without notice to or further assent by any Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Total Obligations made by any Lender may be rescinded by such Lender and any of the Total Obligations continued, and the Total Obligations, or the liability of any other Person upon or for any part thereof, or any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by any Lender, and the Master Agreement, the CCBs and the other Loan Documents and any other documents executed and delivered in connection therewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Requisite Lenders or all Lenders, as the case may be, may deem advisable from time to time as provided in Section 4.1 of the Intercreditor Agreement, and any collateral security, guarantee or right of offset at any time held by any Lender for the payment of the Total Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. No Lender shall have any obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any lien at any time held by it as security for the Total Obligations or for the guarantee contained in Section 3 hereof or any property subject thereto. When making any demand hereunder against any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on the Borrower or any other Guarantor, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from
5
the Borrower or any such other Guarantor or any release of the Borrower or such other Guarantor shall not relieve such Guarantor of its obligations or liabilities hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, express or implied, or as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against such Guarantor. For the purposes of this Guarantee “demand” shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
7. Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Total Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the any Lender upon this Guarantee or acceptance of this Guarantee; the Total Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon this Guarantee; and all dealings between the Loan Parties, on the one hand, and the Lenders, on the other hand, likewise shall be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. Each Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon the Borrower, any other Loan Party with respect to the Total Obligations. Each Guarantor understands and agrees that this Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment and/or performance, and its primary obligation, without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Master Agreement or any other Loan Document, any of the Total Obligations or any other collateral security therefor or guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by or any Lender, (b) any defense, set-off or counterclaim (other than a defense of payment or performance) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person against any Lender, or (c) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower or any other Loan Party) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of the Loan Parties for the Total Obligations, or of such Guarantor under this Guarantee, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When making any demand hereunder or otherwise pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against any Guarantor, any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, make a similar demand on or otherwise pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or against any collateral security or guarantee for the Total Obligations or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by any Lender to make any such demand, to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or to realize upon any such collateral security or guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of the Borrower, any other Loan or any other Person or any such collateral security, guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve any Guarantor of any obligation or liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of any Lender against any Guarantor. Each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably waives any and all rights provided under Articles 333, sole paragraph, 366, 364, 366, 368, 821, 827, 829, sole paragraph, 830, 834, 835, 837, 838 and 839 of the Brazilian Civil Code and Articles 130 and 794 of the Brazilian Civil Procedure Code.
8. Reinstatement. This Guarantee shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Total Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of the Borrower, or any other Loan Party, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.
6
9. Payments. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Total Obligations will be paid to the Lenders without set-off or counterclaim in Brazilian reais in the manner set forth in the CCBs or as otherwise informed in writing by each Lender or the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders, in each case free and clear of, and without deduction for, any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings or restrictions or conditions of any nature whatsoever now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any country or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (“Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to the Guaranteed Parties hereunder, the amounts so payable to the Guaranteed Parties shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to the Guaranteed Parties (after payment of all Taxes) the amounts payable hereunder in the full amounts so to be paid. Whenever any Tax is paid by any Guarantor, as promptly as possible thereafter, the Guarantor shall send the Guaranteed Parties an official receipt showing payment thereof, together with such additional documentary evidence as may be required from time to time by the Guaranteed Parties.
10. Representations and Warranties.

11. Covenants. Each Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with the Lenders that, from and after the date of this Guarantee until the Total Obligations are paid in full such Guarantor shall take, or shall refrain from taking, as the case may be, each action that is necessary to be taken or not taken, as the case may be, including without limitation, complying with the terms of the covenants set forth in the Loan Documents, so that no Default or Event of Default is caused by the failure to take such action or to refrain from taking such action by such Guarantor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Guarantor also makes each of the representations and warranties set forth in the Loan Document as if fully set forth herein.
12. Notices.

15. Amendments in Writing; No Waiver; Remedies. (a) None of the terms or provisions of this Guarantee may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents.
(b) No Lender shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to paragraph 15(a) hereof), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default or in any breach of any of the terms and conditions hereof. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. A waiver by any Lender of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which such Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion or the other Lenders would have on such or any future occasion.
(c) The rights and remedies with respect to this Guarantee shall be exercised as directed by the Lenders pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement.
