valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, Guarantor hereby guarantees to Lender the prompt and full payment
of the indebtedness described below in this Guaranty, this Guaranty being upon
the following terms and conditions:
1. GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE.
Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Lender the
punctual payment of all sums now or hereafter payable pursuant to the Other Note
and the Other Mortgage. The guaranty of Guarantor as set forth in this Section 1
is a continuing guaranty of payment and not merely a guaranty of collection.
Guarantor additionally unconditionally guarantees to Lender the timely
performance of all other obligations of the Other Borrower under the Other Note,
the Other Mortgage and the other Loan Documents (collectively, the "GUARANTEED
OBLIGATIONS").
2. PRIMARY LIABILITY OF GUARANTOR.
This Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guaranty of
payment and performance. Guarantor shall be liable for the payment and
performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, as set forth in this Guaranty, as a
primary obligor. This Guaranty shall be effective as a waiver of, and Guarantor
hereby expressly waives, any and all rights to which Guarantor may otherwise
have been entitled under any suretyship laws in effect from time to time;
including any right or privilege, whether existing under statute, at law or in
equity, to require Lender to take prior recourse or proceedings against any
collateral, security or other party whatsoever.
Guarantor hereby agrees that upon the failure of the Other Borrower to pay
or perform the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the Other Note, the
Other Mortgage or the other Loan Documents, the Guaranteed Obligations, for
purposes of this Guaranty, shall be deemed immediately due and payable by
Guarantor at the election of Lender, and in addition Guarantor shall, on demand
and without presentment, protest, notice of protest, further notice of
nonpayment or of dishonor or of default or nonperformance, or notice of
acceleration or of intent to accelerate, or any other notice whatsoever, without
any notice having been given to Guarantor previous to such demand of the
acceptance by Lender of this Guaranty, all such notices being hereby waived by
Guarantor, pay to Lender or perform all of the Guaranteed Obligations. It shall
not be necessary for Lender, in order to enforce such payment or performance by
Guarantor, first to institute suit or pursue or exhaust any rights or remedies
against the Other Borrower or others liable for such performance, or to enforce
the rights against any of any security that shall ever have been given to secure
such Loan, or to join the Other Borrower or any others liable for the payment or
performance of the Guaranteed Obligations in any action to enforce this
Guaranty, or to resort to any other means of obtaining payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations.
Suit may be brought or demand may be made against all parties who have
signed this Guaranty or against any one or more of them, separately or together,
without impairing the rights of Lender against any party hereto.

guarantors under any such other guaranty, or any complete or partial release or
settlement of the Other Borrower or any other party liable, directly or

terms thereof, or any waiver, termination, or release of, or consent to
departure from, any of the Loan Documents or any other guaranty of any or all of
the Guaranteed Obligations, or any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance, or
compromise that may be granted from time to time by Lender to the Other
Borrower, Guarantor, and/or any other person at any time liable for the payment
or performance of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations;
(ix) any neglect, lack of diligence, delay, omission, failure, or
refusal of Lender to enforce of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or to
foreclose or take or prosecute any action to foreclose (or in foreclosing or
taking or prosecuting any action to foreclose) exercise (or in exercising) any
other right or power with respect to any security for the Guaranteed
Obligations, or to take or prosecute (or in taking or prosecuting) any action in
connection with any Loan Document, or any failure to sell or otherwise dispose

taken or refrained from being taken by Lender against the Other Borrower or any
security or other recourse, or of any new agreement between Lender, and the
Other Borrower, it being understood that Lender shall not be required to give
Guarantor any notice of any kind under any circumstances with respect to or in
connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, any and all rights to notice
Guarantor may have otherwise had being hereby waived by Guarantor, and the
Guarantor shall be responsible for obtaining for itself information regarding
the Other Borrower and the property secured by the Other Mortgage (the "OTHER
PROPERTY"), including, but not limited to, any changes in the business or
financial condition of the Other Borrower or the Other Property, and the
Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the Lender shall have no duty to notify
the Guarantor of any information which the Lender may have concerning the Other
Borrower.
(xi) the making of advances by Lender to protect its interest in
the Property generally the Other Mortgage, preserve the value of such Property
or for the purpose of performing any term or covenant contained in any of the
Loan Documents;
(xii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off,
recoupment, reduction or defense based upon any claim or other right that
Guarantor may at any time have against the Other Borrower, Lender, or any other
party, whether or not arising in connection with this Guaranty, the Note, the
Mortgage, or any other Loan Document;
(xiii) the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations against the Other Borrower, whether because the Guaranteed
Obligations exceed the amount permitted by law or violate any usury law, or
because the act of creating the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, is
ULTRA XXXXX, or because the officers or members creating same acted in excess of
their authority, or because of a lack of validity or enforceability of or defect
or deficiency in any of the Loan Documents, or because any of the Other Borrower
has any valid defense, claim or offset with respect thereto, or because the
Other Borrower's obligation ceases to exist by operation of law, or because of
any other reason or circumstance, it being agreed that Guarantor shall remain
liable hereon regardless of whether the Other Borrower or any other Person be
found not liable on the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, for any
reason (and regardless of any joinder of Other Borrower or any other party in
any action to obtain payment or performance of any or all of the Guaranteed
Obligations); or
(xiv) any order, ruling or plan of reorganization emanating from
proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code with respect to the Other
Borrower or any member or manager of the Other Borrower, including any
extension, reduction, composition, or other alteration of the Guaranteed
Obligations, whether or not consented to by Lender.
In the event any payment to Lender by the Other Borrower or any other party
under the Other Note, the Other Mortgage or the other Loan Documents is held to
constitute a preference, fraudulent transfer or other voidable payment under any
bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or if for any other reason Lender is
required to refund such payment or pay the amount thereof to any other party,
such payment by the Other Borrower or any other party to Lender shall not
constitute a release of Guarantor from any liability hereunder, and this
Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated (notwithstanding
any prior release, surrender or discharge by Lender of this Guaranty or of
Guarantor), as the case may be, with respect to, and this Guaranty shall apply
to, any and all amounts so refunded by Lender or paid by Lender to another party
(which amounts shall constitute part of the Guaranteed Obligations), and any
interest paid by Lender and any attorneys' fees, costs and expenses paid or
incurred by Lender in connection with any such event. It is the intent of
Guarantor and Lender that the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor hereunder
are absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and that until
the Guaranteed Obligations are fully and finally paid or defeased, and not
subject to refund or disgorgement, the obligations and liabilities of Guarantor
hereunder shall not be discharged or released, in whole or in part, by any act
or occurrence that might, but for the provisions of this Guaranty, be deemed a
legal or equitable discharge or release of a guarantor.
If the time for payment of any amount payable by the Other Borrower of the
Guaranteed Obligations is stayed or delayed by any law or tribunal, all such
amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Guarantor on demand by Lender.
4. SUBORDINATION. If, for any reason whatsoever, the Other Borrower is
now or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor:
such indebtedness and all interest thereon and all liens, security
interests and rights now or hereafter existing with respect to property of the
Other Borrower securing same shall, at all times, be subordinate in all respects
to the Guaranteed Obligations and to all liens, security interests and rights
now or hereafter existing to secure the Guaranteed Obligations;
Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment, directly or
indirectly, of any such indebtedness of the Other Borrower to Guarantor until
the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid and performed;
Guarantor hereby assigns and grants to Lender a security interest in all
such indebtedness and security therefor, if any, of the Other Borrower to
Guarantor now existing or hereafter arising, including any dividends and
payments pursuant to debtor relief or insolvency proceedings referred to below.
In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement or other
debtor relief or insolvency proceedings involving the Other Borrower as debtor,
Lender shall have the right to prove its claim in any such proceeding so as to
establish its rights hereunder and shall have the right to receive directly from
the receiver, trustee or other custodian (whether or not an Event of Default
shall have occurred under any of the Loan Documents), dividends and payments
that are payable upon any obligation of the Other Borrower to Guarantor now
existing or hereafter arising, and to have all benefits of any security
therefor, until the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully and finally paid and
performed. If, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Guarantor should
receive any payment, claim or
distribution that is prohibited as provided above in this Section 4, Guarantor
shall pay the same to Lender immediately, Guarantor hereby agreeing that it
shall receive the payment, claim or distribution in trust for Lender and shall
have absolutely no dominion over the same except to pay it immediately to
Lender; and
Guarantor shall promptly upon request of Lender from time to time execute
such documents and perform such acts as Lender may require to evidence and
perfect its interest and to permit or facilitate exercise of its rights under
this Section 4, including, but not limited to, execution and delivery of
financing statements, proofs of claim, further assignments and security
agreements, and delivery to Lender of any promissory notes or other instruments
evidencing indebtedness of the Other Borrower to Guarantor. All promissory
notes, accounts receivable ledgers or other evidences, now or hereafter held by
Guarantor, of obligations of the Other Borrower to Guarantor shall contain a
specific written notice thereon that the indebtedness evidenced thereby is
subordinated under and is subject to the terms of this Guaranty.
5. OTHER LIABILITY OF GUARANTOR OR OTHER BORROWER. If Guarantor is or
becomes liable, by endorsement or otherwise, for any indebtedness owing by the
Other Borrower to Lender other than under this Guaranty, such liability shall
not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights of Lender
hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights that Lender may have
against Guarantor. If the Other Borrower is or becomes indebted to Lender for
any indebtedness other than or in excess of the Indebtedness for which Guarantor
is liable under this Guaranty, any payment received or recovery realized upon
any such indebtedness of the Other Borrower to Lender may, except to the extent
paid by Guarantor on the Indebtedness for which Guarantor is liable under this
Guaranty or specifically required by law or agreement of Lender to be applied to
the Indebtedness for which Guarantor is liable under this Guaranty, in Lender's
sole discretion, be applied upon indebtedness of the Other Borrower to Lender
other than the Indebtedness for which Guarantor is liable under this Guaranty.
This Guaranty is independent of (and shall not be limited by) any other guaranty
now existing or hereafter given. Further, Guarantor's liability under this
Guaranty is in addition to any and all other liability Guarantor may have in any
other capacity, including without limitation, its capacity as an Indemnitor
under the Indemnity Agreement.
6. LENDER ASSIGNS. Each reference herein to Lender shall be deemed to
include its successors and assigns. This Guaranty shall inure to the benefit of
Lender and its respective successors and assigns forever.
7. BINDING EFFECT. This Guaranty is binding not only on Guarantor, but
also on Guarantor's successors and assigns. Upon the death of Guarantor, if
Guarantor is a natural person, this Guaranty shall continue against Guarantor's
estate as to all of the Guaranteed Obligations, including that portion incurred
or arising after the death of Guarantor and shall be provable in full against
Guarantor's estate, whether or not the Guaranteed Obligations are then due and
payable. If this Guaranty is signed now or hereafter by more than one party,
then all of the obligations of Guarantor arising hereunder shall be jointly and
severally binding on each such party, and their respective heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns, and the term "GUARANTOR" shall mean all
of such parties and each of them individually.
8. GOVERNING LAW; FORUM.
This Guaranty shall be deemed to be a contract entered into pursuant to the
laws of the state where the Property is located and shall in all respects be
governed, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the
state where the Property is located.
With respect to any claim or action arising hereunder, Guarantor (i)
irrevocably submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State
of New York and any United States District Court located in the City of New
York, and appellate courts from any thereof, and (ii) irrevocably waives any
objection which it may have at any time to the laying on venue of any suit,
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Guaranty brought in any
such court, and (iii) irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or
proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
9. INAPPLICABLE PROVISIONS. If any term, condition or covenant of this
Guaranty shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect,
this Guaranty shall be construed without such provision.
10. ATTORNEYS' FEES AND COSTS OF COLLECTION. Guarantor shall pay on
demand all attorneys' fees and all other costs and expenses incurred by Lender
in the enforcement of or preservation of Lender's rights under this Guaranty
including, without limitation, all reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses,
investigation costs, and all court costs, whether or not suit is filed herein,
or whether at maturity or by acceleration, or whether before or after maturity,
or whether in connection with bankruptcy, insolvency or appeal, or whether in
connection with the collection and enforcement of this Guaranty against any
other Guarantor, if there be more than one. Guarantor agrees to pay interest on
any expenses or other sums due to Lender under this Section 10 that are not paid
when due, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate provided for in the
Note. Guarantor's obligations and liabilities under this Section 10 shall
survive any payment or discharge in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.
11. PAYMENTS. All sums payable under this Guaranty shall be paid in
lawful money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is
legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.
12. USURY LAWS. This Guaranty is subject to the express condition that
at no time shall Guarantor be obligated or required to pay interest on the
Guaranteed Obligations at a rate which could subject the holder of this Guaranty
to either civil or criminal liability as a result of being in excess of the
maximum interest rate which Guarantor is permitted by applicable law to contract
or agree to pay. If by the terms of this Guaranty, Guarantor is at any time
required or obligated to pay interest on the Guaranteed Obligations at a rate in
excess of such maximum rate, the rate of interest under this Guaranty shall be
deemed to be immediately reduced to such maximum rate and the interest payable
shall be computed at such maximum rate and all prior interest payments in excess
of such maximum rate shall be applied and shall be deemed to have been payments
in reduction of the balance of the Guaranteed Obligations.
13. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS OF GUARANTOR. Guarantor
hereby
represents, warrants, and covenants that (a) Guarantor has a financial interest
in the Other Borrower and will derive a material and substantial benefit,
directly or indirectly, from the making of the Loan to the Other Borrower; (b)
this Guaranty is duly authorized and valid, and is binding upon and enforceable

any loss, cost or expense as a result of any representation or warranty of the

threatened before or by any tribunal against or affecting Guarantor which, if
adversely determined, would materially affect the ability of Guarantor to

disclosed in writing to Lender, has Guarantor incurred any material liability,
direct or indirect, fixed or contingent; (g) after giving effect to this
Guaranty, Guarantor is solvent, and does not intend to incur or believe that it

Other Borrower, Guarantor, any other party, or any security for all or any part
of the Guaranteed Obligations.

preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy.
Lender shall have all rights, remedies and recourses afforded to Lender by
reason of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document or by law or equity or
otherwise, and the same (a) shall be cumulative and concurrent, (b) may be
pursued separately, successively or concurrently against Guarantor or others
obligated for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, or against any
one or more of them, or against any security or otherwise, at the sole
discretion of Lender, (c) may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall
arise, it being agreed by Guarantor that the exercise of, discontinuance of the
exercise of or failure to exercise any of such rights, remedies, or recourses
shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof or of any other
right, remedy, or recourse, and (d) are intended to be, and shall be,
nonexclusive. No waiver of any default on the part of Guarantor or of any breach
of any of the provisions of this Guaranty or of any other document shall be
considered a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach, and no delay
or omission in exercising or enforcing the rights and powers granted herein or
in any other document shall be construed as a waiver of such rights and powers,
and no exercise or enforcement of any rights or powers hereunder or under any
other document shall be held to exhaust such rights and powers, and every such
right and power may be exercised from time to time. The granting of any consent,
approval or waiver by Lender shall be limited to the specific instance and
purpose therefor and shall not constitute consent or aproval in any other
instance or for any other purpose. No notice to or demand on Guarantor in any
case shall of itself entitle Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand
in similar or other circumstances. No provision of this Guaranty or any right,
remedy or recourse of Lender with respect hereto, or any default or breach, can
be waived, nor can this Guaranty or Guarantor be released or discharged in any
way or to any extent, except specifically in each case by a writing intended for
that purpose (and which refers specifically to this Guaranty) executed, and
delivered to Guarantor, by Lender.
16. EXCULPATION. Guarantor's obligations hereunder shall be subject to
the provisions of Section 9.4 of the Loan Agreement, which provisions are
expressly incorporated herein.
17. TERM OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty shall continue in effect until (i)
all of the obligations to Lender under the Other Note are fully and finally paid
or defeased (even if ownership of the Other Property changes or ownership and/or
structure of the Other Borrower changes), and discharged, or (ii) repayment in
full of the Note and release of Guarantor's Property from the lien of its
Mortgage.
18. TRANSFER OF LOAN.
Lender may, at any time, sell, transfer or assign the Note, the Mortgage,
this Guaranty and the other Loan Documents, and any or all servicing rights with
respect thereto, or grant participations therein or issue mortgage pass-through
certificates or other securities evidencing a beneficial interest in a rated or
unrated public offering or private placement (the "SECURITIES"). Lender may
forward to each purchaser, transferee, assignee, servicer, participant or
investor in such Securities or any credit rating agency rating such Securities
(the foregoing entities hereinafter collectively referred to as the "INVESTOR")
and each prospective Investor, all documents and information (including, but not
limited to, financial information) which Lender now has or may hereafter acquire
relating to Guarantor and the Property, whether furnished by any Guarantor or
otherwise, as Lender determines necessary or desirable, subject to any
confidentiality agreement executed by Lender prior to the receipt of such
information.
Upon any transfer or proposed transfer contemplated above and by the Loan
Agreement, at Lender's request, Guarantor shall provide an estoppel certificate
to the Investor or any prospective Investor in such form, substance and detail
as Lender, such Investor or prospective Investor may reasonably require.
19. RIGHT OF SET-OFF. Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from
time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, without notice
(any such notice being expressly waived by Guarantor to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law), to set off and apply any and all deposits, funds,
or assets at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by Lender to
or for the credit or the account of Guarantor against any and all of the
obligations of Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Guaranty, whether
or not Lender shall have made any demand under this Guaranty or exercised any
other right or remedy hereunder. Lender will promptly notify Guarantor after any
such set-off and application made by Lender, provided that the failure to give
such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The
rights of Lender under this Section 19 are in addition to the other rights and
remedies (including other rights of set-off) that Lender may have and every
right of setoff and lien shall continue in full force and effect until such
right of setoff or lien is specifically waived or released by an instrument in
writing executed by Lender.
20. SUBROGATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, (a) Guarantor shall not have any right of subrogation in or under any of
the Loan Documents or to participate in any way therein, or in any right, title
or interest in and to any security or right of recourse for the Indebtedness,
until the Indebtedness has been fully and finally paid, and (b) if the Guarantor
is or becomes an "insider" (as defined in Xxxxxxx 000 xx xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx
Bankruptcy Code) with respect to the Other Borrower, then Guarantor hereby
irrevocably and absolutely waives any and all rights of contribution,
indemnification, reimbursement or any similar rights against the Other Borrower
with respect to this Guaranty (including any right of subrogation, except to the
extent of collateral held by Lender), whether such rights arise under an express
or implied contract or by operation of law. It is the intention of the parties
that the Guarantor shall not be deemed to be a "creditor" (as defined in Xxxxxxx
000 xx xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx Bankruptcy Code) of the Other Borrower by reason of the
existence of this Guaranty in the event that the Other Borrower or the Guarantor
becomes a debtor in any proceeding under the United
States Bankruptcy code. This waiver is given to induce Lender to make the Loan
as evidenced by the Other Note to the Other Borrower.
21. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Guarantor at Guarantor's expense will promptly
execute and deliver to Lender upon Lender's request all such other and further
documents, agreements, and instruments in compliance with or accomplishment of
the agreements of Guarantor under this Guaranty.
22. NO FIDUCIARY RELATIONSHIP. The relationship between Lender and
Guarantor is solely that of lender and guarantor. Lender has no fiduciary or
other special relationship with or duty to Guarantor and none is created hereby
or may be inferred from any course of dealing or act or omission of Lender.
23. INTERPRETATION. If this Guaranty is signed by more than one party as
"Guarantor", then the term "Guarantor" as used in this Guaranty shall refer to
all such parties jointly and severally, and all promises, agreements, covenants,
waivers, consents, representations, warranties and other provisions in this
Guaranty are made by and shall be binding upon each and every such undersigned
party, jointly and severally and the Lender may pursue any Guarantor hereunder
