The Guaranty
------------
Section 2.1 Liabilities Guaranteed. The Guarantor hereby
----------------------
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the prompt payment when due, whether
at maturity or upon the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default under
the Credit Agreement, of the Obligations (hereinafter referred to as the
"Liabilities"). The Liabilities shall also include all Obligations which would
be owed by the Borrower but for the fact that they are determined to be void,
unenforceable, uncollectible, or not allowable for any reason against the
Borrower, including, without limitation, under any Insolvency Proceeding of the
Borrower.
Section 2.2 Nature of Guaranty. This is an irrevocable, absolute,
------------------
complete, and continuing guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection,
and no notice of the Liabilities or any extension of credit already or hereafter
contracted by or extended to the Borrower need be given to the Guarantor. The
Liabilities may be rearranged, increased, reduced, extended for any period,
and/or renewed from time to time, or paid in full without notice to the
Guarantor; and such events shall not release, discharge, or reduce the
obligation of the Guarantor with respect to the Liabilities, and the Guarantor
shall remain fully bound hereunder notwithstanding the occurrence of such
events. In the event that the Lender must rescind or restore any payment
received by such Lender in satisfaction of the Liabilities, as set forth herein,
any prior release or discharge from the terms of this Guaranty Agreement given
to the Guarantor by such Lender shall be without effect, and this Guaranty
Agreement shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may
be. It is the intention of the Borrower and the Guarantor that obligations of
the Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged except by the Guarantor's
performance of such obligations and then only to the extent of such performance.
This Guaranty Agreement shall not be discharged by the assignment or negotiation
of all or part of the Liabilities. This Guaranty Agreement may not be revoked
by the Guarantor and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Liabilities is rescinded
or must otherwise be returned by the Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization, receivership, or other debtor relief proceeding involving the
Borrower, or after any attempted revocation by the Guarantor, all as though such
payment had not been made. The Guarantor hereby expressly waives presentment,
demand, notice of non-payment, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of
acceleration, protest, notice of protest and dishonor, or any other notice
whatsoever on any and all forms of such Liabilities, and also notice of
acceptance of this Guaranty Agreement.
Section 2.3 Lender's Rights. The Guarantor authorizes the Lender,
---------------
without notice or demand and without affecting the Guarantor's liability
hereunder, to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty Agreement
and/or any of the Liabilities, and exchange, enforce, waive, and release any
such security; and to apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale
thereof as the Lender in its discretion may determine; and to obtain a guaranty
of the Liabilities from any one or more Persons and at any time or times to
enforce, waive, rearrange, modify, limit, or release any of such other Persons
from their obligations under such guaranties, and the Guarantor hereby
acknowledges and agrees that the obligations of all Persons to pay and satisfy
the Liabilities pursuant to their respective guaranties (including the
Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty Agreement) shall be joint and
several.
Section 2.4 Guarantor's Waivers. The Guarantor waives any right to
-------------------
require the Lender to (and it shall not be necessary for the Lender, in order to
enforce such payment by the Guarantor to first) (a) proceed against the Borrower
or any other Person liable on the Liabilities, (b) proceed against or exhaust
any security given to secure the Liabilities, (c) have the Borrower joined with
the Guarantor in any suit arising out of this Guaranty Agreement and/or any of
the Liabilities, (d) enforce its rights against any other guarantor of the
Liabilities, or (e) pursue or exhaust any other right in the Lender's power
whatsoever. The Lender shall not be required to mitigate damages or take any
action to reduce, collect, or enforce the Liabilities. The Guarantor waives any
defense arising by reason of any disability, lack of authority or power, or
other defense of the Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Liabilities,
and shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether the Borrower or any other
guarantor is found not liable thereon for any reason including,
2
without limitation, disability, bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
dissolution, or operation of law, even though rendering the Liabilities void or
unenforceable or uncollectible as against the Borrower or any other guarantor.
Prior to the payment in full of the Liabilities, (x) the Guarantor shall have no
right of subrogation, and waives any right to enforce any remedy which the
Lender now has or may hereafter have against the Borrower, and waives any
benefit of any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by the
Lender, (y) the Guarantor hereby waives any obligation of the Borrower to pay,
reimburse, or otherwise compensate the Guarantor for any payments the Guarantor
may have to make to the Lender pursuant to this Guaranty Agreement, and (z) in
addition, the Guarantor hereby waives any right or claim it now has or may
hereafter have against the Borrower in connection with any payments which the
Guarantor may have to make to the Lender pursuant to this Guaranty Agreement.
Section 2.5 Maturity of Liabilities; Payment. The Guarantor agrees
--------------------------------
that if the maturity of any Liabilities is accelerated by bankruptcy or
otherwise, such maturity shall also be deemed accelerated for the purpose of
this Guaranty Agreement without demand or notice to the Guarantor. The
Guarantor will, forthwith upon notice from the Lender of the Borrower's failure
to pay any Liabilities when due, pay to the Lender, the amount due and unpaid by
the Borrower and guaranteed hereby. The failure of the Lender to give this
notice shall not in any way release the Guarantor hereunder.
Section 2.6 Lender's Expenses. If the Guarantor fails to pay the
-----------------
Liabilities after notice from the Lender of the Borrower's failure to pay any
Liabilities when due, and if the Lender obtains the services of an attorney for
collection of amounts owing by the Guarantor hereunder, or if suit is filed to
enforce this Guaranty Agreement, or if proceedings are had in any bankruptcy,
probate, receivership, or other judicial proceeding for the establishment or
collection of any amount owing by the Guarantor hereunder, or if any amount
owing by the Guarantor hereunder is collected through such proceedings, the
Guarantor agrees to pay to the Lender at its Principal Office all court costs
and all reasonable attorneys' fees incurred by the Lender.
Section 2.7 Primary Liability. It is expressly agreed that the
-----------------
liability of the Guarantor for the payment of the Liabilities guaranteed hereby
shall be primary and not secondary.
Section 2.8 Subordination. The Guarantor hereby subordinates (in
-------------
liquidation, dissolution, bankruptcy, reorganization, or otherwise) all sums due
and owing to the Guarantor by the Borrower to all sums due and owing to the
Lender by the Borrower.
Section 2.9 Events and Circumstances Not Reducing or Discharging the
--------------------------------------------------------

affected by any of the following, and waives any rights (including, without

result of or in connection with any of the following:

-------------------------
unenforceability of all or any part of the Liabilities, or any document or
agreement executed in connection with the Liabilities, for any reason
whatsoever, including, without limitation, the fact that the Liabilities,
or any part thereof, exceed the amount permitted by law, the act of
creating the Liabilities or any part thereof is ultra xxxxx, the officers,
partners, or representatives executing the documents or otherwise creating
the Liabilities acted in excess of their authority, the Liabilities violate
applicable usury laws, the Borrower has valid defenses, claims, or offsets
(whether at law, in equity or by agreement) which render the Liabilities
wholly or partially uncollectible from the Borrower, the creation,
performance, or repayment of the Liabilities (or the execution, delivery,
and performance of any document or instrument representing part of the
Liabilities or executed in connection with the Liabilities, or given to
secure the repayment of the Liabilities) is illegal, uncollectible, legally
impossible, or unenforceable, or the Credit Agreement or other Loan
Documents or other instruments pertaining to the Liabilities have been
forged or otherwise are irregular or not genuine or authentic;
(e) Release of Obligors. Any inadvertent or unintentional full or
-------------------
partial release of the liability of the Borrower on the Liabilities or any
part thereof, or any full or partial release of the liability of any
coguarantor, or any other Person now or hereafter liable, whether directly
or indirectly, jointly, severally, or jointly and severally, to pay,

------------------------------
to be taken with respect to the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents,

Guarantor that the Guarantor shall be obligated to pay the Liabilities when
due, notwithstanding any occurrence, circumstance, event, action, or
omission whatsoever, whether or not contemplated, and whether or not
