GUARANTY
(this “Guaranty”), dated as of July 7, 2006, made by CENDANT CORPORATION, a

banks and other financial institutions or entities (the “Lenders”) from time to
time parties to the Interim Term Loan Agreement, dated as of July 7, 2006

Loan Agreement”), among WYNDHAM WORLDWIDE CORPORATION (the “Borrower”), THE
ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND PLC and THE BANK OF NOVA SCOTIA, as Syndication Agents,

the
Guarantor;
WHEREAS,
the Borrower and the Guarantor will derive substantial direct and indirect
benefit from the making of the extensions of credit under the Interim Term
Loan
Agreement; and
WHEREAS,
it is a condition precedent to the obligation of the Lenders to make their
respective extensions of credit to the Borrower under the Interim Term Loan
Agreement that the Guarantor shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty
to
the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders;
NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and to induce the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders to enter into the Interim Term Loan Agreement and to
induce the Lenders to make their respective extensions of credit to the Borrower
thereunder, the Guarantor hereby agrees with the Administrative Agent, for
the
ratable benefit of the Lenders, as follows:

after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy, or the commencement of any

hereafter incurred, which may arise
1
under,
out of, or in connection with, the Interim Term Loan Agreement, the other
Fundamental Documents (other than this Guaranty) or any other document made,
delivered or given in connection with any of the foregoing, in each case whether
on account of principal, interest, reimbursement obligations, swap coupon or
termination payments, fees or indemnities or reasonable out-of-pocket costs
or
expenses (including, without limitation, all reasonable out-of-pocket fees
and
disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent or to the Lenders that
are
required to be paid by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of any of the
foregoing agreements).
“Termination
Event”:
either
(i) the consummation of the Spin-Off or (ii) payment in full of the Obligations
and termination of the Commitments.
1.2 Other
Definitional Provisions.
(a)
The
words “hereof,” “herein”, “hereto” and “hereunder” and words of similar import
when used in this Guaranty shall refer to this Guaranty as a whole and not
to
any particular provision of this Guaranty, and Section and Schedule references
are to this Guaranty unless otherwise specified.
(b) The
meanings given to terms defined herein shall be equally applicable to both
the
singular and plural forms of such terms.
SECTION
2. GUARANTY
2.1 Guaranty.
(a)
The
Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably (except as otherwise provided
in Section 5.13) guaranties to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit
of the Lenders and their respective successors, indorsees, transferees and
assigns, the prompt and complete payment and performance by the Borrower when
due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the
Obligations.
(b) The
Guarantor further agrees to pay any and all reasonable documented expenses
(including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of
counsel) which may be paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender
in enforcing, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of, any rights with
respect to, or collecting, any or all of the Obligations and/or enforcing any
rights with respect to, or collecting against, the Borrower under this Guaranty;
provided,
however,
that
the Guarantor shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm for the Lenders (unless there shall exist an actual conflict
of
interest among such Persons, and in such case, not more than two separate firms)
in connection with any one such action or any separate, but substantially
similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction, nor shall the Guarantor
be
liable for any settlement or proceeding effected without the Guarantor’s written
consent. This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the
occurrence of a Termination Event.
(c) No
payment or payments made by the Borrower or any other Person or received or
collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower or any
other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any set-off or
appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction
of
or in payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release
or
otherwise affect the liability of the Guarantor hereunder which shall,
notwithstanding any such payment or payments (other than payments made by the
Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or payments received or collected from
the Guarantor in respect of the Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations
until the occurrence of a Termination Event.
(d) The
Guarantor agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, it shall
make
any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of its
liability hereunder, it will notify the
2
Administrative
Agent and such Lender in writing that such payment is made under this Guaranty
for such purpose.
2.2 No
Subrogation.
Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, or
any
set-off or application of funds of the Guarantor by the Administrative Agent
or
any Lender, the Guarantor shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of
the
rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower or against
any collateral security or Guaranty or right of offset held by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations, nor
shall
the Guarantor seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement
from
the Borrower in respect of payments made by the Guarantor hereunder, until
the
occurrence of a Termination Event. If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor
on account of such subrogation rights at any time before the occurrence of
a
Termination Event, such amount shall be held by the Guarantor in trust for
the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of the
Guarantor, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by the Guarantor, be turned over
to
the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by the Guarantor (duly
indorsed by the Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be
applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in such order
as
the Administrative Agent may determine.
2.3 Amendments,
etc. with respect to the Obligations; Waiver of Rights.
The
Guarantor shall remain obligated hereunder notwithstanding that, without any
reservation of rights against the Guarantor, and without notice to or further
assent by the Guarantor, any demand for payment of any of the Obligations made
by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative
Agent or such Lender, and any of the Obligations continued, and the Obligations,
or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any
collateral security or guaranty 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
the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and any collateral security, guaranty
or
right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender
for
the payment of the Obligations may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered
or
released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any
obligation to protect, secure, perfect or insure any Lien at any time held
by it
as security for the Obligations or for this Guaranty or any property subject
thereto. When making any demand hereunder against the Guarantor, the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to,
make a similar demand on the Borrower, and any failure by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender to make any such demand or to collect any payments from
the
Borrower or any release of the Borrower shall not relieve the 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 the Guarantor. For the purposes hereof “demand”
shall include the commencement and continuance of any legal proceedings.
2.4 Guaranty
Absolute and Unconditional.
The
Guarantor waives any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or
accrual of any of the Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by the
Administrative Agent or any Lender upon this Guaranty or acceptance of this
Guaranty; the 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 Guaranty; and all dealings between the Borrower and the
Guarantor, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on
the
other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated
in reliance upon this Guaranty. The Guarantor waives diligence, presentment,
protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon
the
Borrower or the Guarantor with respect to the Obligations. This Guaranty shall
be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guaranty of payment
without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of the Interim Term
Loan Agreement, any of the Obligations or any other collateral security therefor
or guaranty or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time
to
time held by the Administrative Agent 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 they
3
Borrower
against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (c) any other
circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of the Borrower
or the Guarantor) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an
equitable or legal discharge of the Borrower for its Obligations, or of the
Guarantor under this Guaranty, in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When
pursuing its rights and remedies hereunder against the Guarantor, the
Administrative Agent and any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to,
pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against the Borrower or any
other
Person or against any collateral security or guaranty for the Obligations or
any
right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any
payments from the Borrower or any such other Person or to realize upon any
such
collateral security or guaranty or to exercise any such right of offset, or
any
release of the Borrower or any such other Person or of any such collateral
security, guaranty or right of offset, shall not relieve the Guarantor of any
liability hereunder, and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies,
whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative
Agent or any Lender against the Borrower. This Guaranty shall remain in full
force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its
terms upon the Guarantor and its successors and assigns thereof, and shall
inure
to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their respective
successors, indorsees, transferees and assigns, until the occurrence of a
Termination Event.
2.5 Reinstatement.
This
Guaranty 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 Obligations is
rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent
or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or
reorganization of the Borrower 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 substantial part of the Borrower’s property, or otherwise, all
as though such payments had not been made.
2.6 Payments.
The
Guarantor hereby guaranties that payments hereunder will be paid to the
Administrative Agent without set-off or counterclaim in Dollars at the Funding
Office.
SECTION
3. REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES
The
Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative
Agent
and each Lender that:
3.1 Corporate
Existence and Power.
The
Guarantor has been duly organized and is validly existing in good standing
under
the laws of its jurisdictions of organization and is in good standing or has
applied for authority to operate as a foreign corporation or other organization
in all jurisdictions where the nature of its properties or business so requires
it and where a failure to be in good standing as a foreign corporation would
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business,
assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Guarantor.
The
Guarantor has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform its
obligations under this Guaranty.
3.2 Corporate
Authority, No Violation and Compliance with Law.
The
execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty (a) have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Guarantor,
(b)
will not violate any provision of any Applicable Law (including any laws related
to franchising) applicable to the Guarantor or any of its respective properties
or assets, (c) will not violate any provision of the certificate of
incorporation or by-laws of the Guarantor and (d) will not violate or be in
conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse
of
time or both) a default under, any material indenture, bond, note, instrument
or
any other material agreement to which the Guarantor is a party or by which
the
Guarantor or any of its respective properties or assets are bound.
4
3.3 Enforceability.
This
Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor
(enforceable in accordance with its terms subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting
creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity,
regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The
Guarantor agrees that the representations and warranties contained in this
Section 3.3 shall be deemed to have been made by the Guarantor on the date
of
each borrowing by the Borrower under the Interim Term Loan Agreement on and
as
of such date of borrowing as though made hereunder on and as of such
date.
SECTION
4. THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
The
Guarantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of the
Administrative Agent under this Guaranty with respect to any action taken by
the
Administrative Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by the Administrative
Agent
of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided
for herein or resulting or arising out of this Guaranty shall, as between the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders, be governed by the Interim Term Loan
Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from
time to time among them, but, as between the Administrative Agent and the
Guarantor, the Administrative Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting
as agent for the Lenders with full and valid authority so to act or refrain
from
acting, and the Guarantor shall not be under any obligation, or entitlement,
to
make any inquiry respecting such authority.
SECTION
5. MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Amendments
in Writing.
None of
the terms or provisions of this Guaranty may be waived, amended, supplemented
or
otherwise modified except by a written instrument executed by the Guarantor
and
the Administrative Agent; provided
that any
provision (other than Section 5.13) of this Guaranty may be waived by the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders in a letter or agreement executed by the
Administrative Agent and the Guarantor or by facsimile or other electronic
transmission from the Administrative Agent.
5.2 Notices.
All
notices, requests and demands to or upon the Administrative Agent or the
Guarantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section
10.1
of the Interim Term Loan Agreement; provided that any such notice, request
or
demand to or upon the Guarantor shall be addressed to the Guarantor at its
notice address set forth on Schedule 1.
5.3 No
Waiver by Course of Conduct; Cumulative Remedies.
Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall by any act (except by a written
instrument pursuant to Section 5.1), 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. No failure to exercise, nor any delay in
exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or 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 the Administrative Agent or 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 the Administrative Agent or such Lender would otherwise
have on any future occasion. The rights and remedies herein provided are
cumulative, may be exercised singly or concurrently and are not exclusive of
any
other rights or remedies provided by law.
5.4 Enforcement
Expenses; Indemnification.
(a)
The
Guarantor agrees to pay or reimburse each Lender and the Administrative Agent
for all its reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred
in
collecting against the Guarantor under this Guaranty, as applicable, or
otherwise
5
enforcing
or preserving any rights under this Guaranty, including, without limitation,
the
reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees
and
expenses of in-house counsel) to each Lender and of counsel to the
Administrative Agent; provided,
however,
that
the Guarantor shall not be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm for the Lenders (unless there shall exist an actual conflict
of
interest among such Persons, and in such case, not more than two separate firms)
in connection with any one such action or any separate, but substantially
similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction, nor shall the Guarantor
be
liable for any settlement or proceeding effected without the Guarantor’s written
consent.
(b) The
Guarantor agrees to pay, and to save the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or
nature whatsoever with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement,
performance and administration of this Guaranty to the extent the Borrower
would
be required to do so pursuant to Section 10.5 of the Interim Term Loan
Agreement.
5.5 Successors
and Assigns.
This
Guaranty shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Guarantor
and
shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and
their
successors and assigns; provided that the Guarantor may not assign, transfer
or
delegate any of its rights or obligations under this Guaranty without the prior
written consent of the Administrative Agent.
5.6 Set-Off.
The
Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Lender
at any time and from time to time while an Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing, without notice to the Guarantor, any such notice being
expressly waived by the 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 the Administrative Agent or such Lender
to or for the credit or the account of the Guarantor, or any part thereof in
such amounts as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may elect, against
and
on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantor to the
Administrative Agent or such Lender hereunder and claims of every nature and
description of the Administrative Agent or such Lender against the Guarantor,
in
any currency, whether arising hereunder, under the Interim Term Loan Agreement,
any other Fundamental Document or otherwise, as the Administrative Agent or
such
Lender may elect, whether or not the Administrative Agent or any Lender has
made
any demand for payment and although such obligations, liabilities and claims
may
be contingent or unmatured. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall
notify the Guarantor promptly of any such set-off and the application made
by
the Administrative Agent or such Lender of the proceeds thereof, provided that
the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off
and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under
this Section 5.6 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including,
without limitation, other rights of set-off) which the Administrative Agent
or
such Lender may have.
5.7 Severability.
Any
provision of this Guaranty which 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 hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any
jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in
any
other jurisdiction.
5.8 Section
Headings.
The
Section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience of reference only
and
are not to affect the construction hereof or be taken into consideration in
the
interpretation hereof.

and
the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no promises,
undertakings, representations or warranties by the Guarantor, Administrative
Agent or any Lender relative to subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly
set forth or referred to herein.
5.10 GOVERNING
LAW.
THIS GUARANTY AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS GUARANTY
SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE

The
Guarantor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:
(a) submits
for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this
Guaranty, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof,

York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District
of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;
(b) consents
that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives
any
objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action

inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;
(c) agrees
that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by
mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially
similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Guarantor at its address referred
to in Section 5.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent
shall have been notified pursuant thereto;
(d) agrees
that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in
any
other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to xxx in any other
jurisdiction; and
(e) waives,
to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim
or
recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any
special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.
