GUARANTY AGREEMENT
Exhibit 10.2
EXECUTION VERSION
THIS GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “Guaranty Agreement”), dated as of August 2, 2011, among
EACH OF THE UNDERSIGNED AND EACH OTHER PERSON WHO SHALL BECOME A PARTY HERETO BY EXECUTION OF A
GUARANTY JOINDER AGREEMENT (each a “Guarantor” and collectively the “Guarantors”)
and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national banking association organized and existing under the laws of
the United States, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Agent”) for each of the
Benefited Parties. All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the
meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement (defined below).
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx XX, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Borrower”), Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxxx Inc., a Maryland corporation (“CSI”), the Agent, and the lenders party thereto from
time to time (the “Lenders”) are entering into that certain Credit Agreement dated as of
the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the
“Credit Agreement”) pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to provide to the Borrower
the credit facility set forth therein; and
WHEREAS, it is a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement that the
Guarantors shall have executed and delivered this Guaranty Agreement to the Agent; and
WHEREAS, the Guarantors will materially benefit from the Credit Agreement and the extensions
of credit made thereunder;
WHEREAS, a material part of the consideration given in connection with and as an inducement to
the execution and delivery of the Credit Agreement by the Benefited Parties party thereto was the
obligation of CSI to cause each Guarantor to enter into this Guaranty Agreement, and the Benefited
Parties are unwilling to extend and maintain the credit facilities provided under the Loan
Documents unless the Guarantors enter into this Guaranty Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein, the
parties hereto agree as follows:
1. Guaranty. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally, unconditionally,
absolutely, continually and irrevocably guarantees to the Agent for the benefit of the Benefited
Parties the payment and performance in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities (as defined below). For
all purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, “Guaranteed Liabilities” means: (a) the Borrower’s
prompt payment in full, when due or declared due and at all such times, of all Obligations and all
other amounts pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Notes and all other Loan Documents
heretofore, now or at any time or times hereafter owing, arising, due or payable from the Borrower
to any one or more of the Benefited Parties, including principal, interest, premiums and fees
(including reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel (collectively, “Attorneys’
Costs”)); (b) the Borrower’s prompt, full and faithful performance, observance
and
discharge of each and every agreement, undertaking, covenant and provision to be performed,
observed or discharged by the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Notes and all other Loan
Documents; and (c) the prompt payment in full by each Loan Party, when due or declared due and at
all such times, of obligations and liabilities now or hereafter arising under Secured Cash
Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. The Guarantors’ obligations to the Benefited
Parties under this Guaranty Agreement are hereinafter collectively referred to as the
“Guarantors’ Obligations” and, with respect to each Guarantor individually, the
“Guarantor’s Obligations”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the liability of each Material
Subsidiary of the Borrower individually with respect to its Guarantor’s Obligations shall be
limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations
hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any
comparable provisions of any applicable state law.
Each Guarantor agrees that it is jointly and severally, directly and primarily liable (subject
to the limitation in the immediately preceding sentence) for the Guaranteed Liabilities.
2. Payment. If the Borrower shall default in payment or performance of any of the
Guaranteed Liabilities, whether principal, interest, premium, fees (including, but not limited to,
Attorneys’ Costs), or otherwise, when and as the same shall become due, and after expiration of any
applicable notice, grace and cure periods, whether according to the terms of the Credit Agreement,
by acceleration, or otherwise, or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of
Default under the Credit Agreement, then any or all of the Guarantors will, upon demand thereof by
the Agent, (i) fully pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the Benefited Parties, subject to any
restriction on each Guarantor’s Obligations set forth in Section 1 hereof, an amount equal
to all the Guaranteed Liabilities then due and owing or declared or deemed to be due and owing,
including for this purpose, in the event of any Event of Default under Section 9.01(f) of
the Credit Agreement (irrespective of the applicability of any restriction on acceleration or other
action as against any other Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Laws), the entire outstanding or
accrued amount of all Obligations or (ii) perform the Guaranteed Liabilities, as applicable. For
purposes of this Section 2 the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that “Guaranteed
Liabilities” shall be deemed to include any amount (whether principal, interest, premium or fees)
which would have been accelerated in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement
but for the fact that such acceleration could be unenforceable or is not allowed under any Debtor
Relief Law. Any time that the Agent is entitled to exercise its rights and remedies hereunder, it
may in its discretion elect to demand payment and/or performance. If the Agent elects to demand
performance, it shall at all times thereafter have the right to demand payment until all of the
Guaranteed Obligations have been paid and performed in full. If Lender elects to demand payment,
it shall at all times thereafter have the right to demand performance until all of the Guaranteed
Obligations have been paid and performed in full.
2
3. Absolute Rights and Obligations. This is a guaranty of payment and not of
collection. The Guarantors’ Obligations under this Guaranty Agreement shall be joint and several,
absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby expressly waives, to the
extent permitted by law, any defense to its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement and all
Security Instruments to which it is a party by reason of:
(a) any lack of legality, validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, of any of
the Notes, of any other Loan Document, or of any other agreement or instrument creating,
providing security for, or otherwise relating to any of the Guarantors’ Obligations, any of
the Guaranteed Liabilities, or any other guaranty of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities (the
Loan Documents and all such other agreements and instruments being collectively referred to
as the “Related Agreements”);
(b) any action taken under any of the Related Agreements, any exercise of any right or
power therein conferred, any failure or omission to enforce any right conferred thereby, or
any waiver of any covenant or condition therein provided;
(c) any acceleration of the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, of the
Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Guarantor, or of any other obligations or liabilities
of any Person under any of the Related Agreements;
(d) any release, exchange, non-perfection, lapse in perfection, disposal, deterioration
in value, or impairment of any security for any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, for any of
the Guarantor’s Obligations of any Guarantor, or for any other obligations or liabilities of
any Person under any of the Related Agreements;
(e) any dissolution of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related
Agreement, or the combination or consolidation of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other
party to a Related Agreement into or with another entity or any transfer or disposition of
any assets of the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other party to a Related Agreement;
(f) any extension (including, without limitation, extensions of time for payment),
renewal, amendment, restructuring or restatement of, any acceptance of late or partial
payments under, or any change in the amount of any borrowings or any credit facilities
available under, the Credit Agreement, any of the Notes or any other Loan Document or any
other Related Agreement, in whole or in part;
(g) the existence, addition, modification, termination, reduction or impairment of
value, or release of any other guaranty (or security therefor) of the Guaranteed Liabilities
(including, without limitation, the Guarantor’s Obligations of any other Guarantor and
obligations arising under any other Guaranty now or hereafter in effect);
(h) any waiver of, forbearance or indulgence under, or other consent to any change in
or departure from any term or provision contained in the Credit Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any other Related Agreement, including, without limitation, any term pertaining
to the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Liabilities, any of the Guarantor’s
Obligations of any other Guarantor, or any of the obligations or liabilities of any party to
any other Related Agreement;
3
(i) the staying or delaying by any Law or tribunal of an acceleration of the time for
payment of any amount payable by the Borrower under the Note, the Credit Agreement or any
other Loan Document;
(j) (i) any defense to the recovery by the Agent against any Guarantor of any
deficiency or otherwise to the enforcement of this Guaranty or any security for this
Guaranty based upon the Agent’s election of any remedy against any Guarantor or Borrower,
including the defense to enforcement of this Guaranty (the so-called “Gradsky” defense)
which, absent this waiver, any Guarantor would have by virtue of an election by the Agent to
conduct a non-judicial foreclosure sale (also known as a “trustee’s sale”) of any real
property security for the Indebtedness, it being understood by the Guarantors that any such
non-judicial foreclosure sale will destroy, by operation of California Code of Civil
Procedure (“CCP”) Section 580d, all rights of any party to a deficiency judgment against
Borrower and, as a consequence, will destroy all rights that the Guarantors would otherwise
have (including the right of subrogation, the right of reimbursement, and the right of
contribution) to proceed against Borrower; (ii) any defense or benefits that may be derived
from CCP Sections 580a, 580b, 580d or 726, or comparable provisions of the laws of any other
jurisdiction and all other anti-deficiency and one form of action defenses under the laws of
California and any other jurisdiction; and (iii) any right to a fair value hearing under CCP
Section 580a, or any other similar law, to determine the size of any deficiency owing (for
which the Guarantors would be liable hereunder) following a non-judicial foreclosure sale.
Nothing in this subsection (j) shall operate to change, waive or affect the benefits or
defenses arising under Division 3, Part 4, Title 14, Chapter 2 of the California Civil Code,
and all successor sections, or comparable provisions of the laws of any other jurisdictions;
(k) any rights and defenses that the Guarantors may have because the Guaranteed
Obligations are secured by real property, including, without limitation:
(a) that the Agent may collect from any Guarantor without first foreclosing on
any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower, any other Guarantor or
any other Person; and
(b) if the Agent forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by
Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person: (A) the amount of the Guaranteed
Obligations may be reduced only by the price for which that collateral is sold at
the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price; and
(B) the Agent may collect from the Guarantors even if the Agent, by foreclosing on
the real property collateral, has destroyed any right any Guarantor may have to
collect from Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person.
This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses that the
Guarantors may have because the Guaranteed Obligations are secured by real property. These
rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses based upon CCP
Sections 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726;
4
(l) any rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the Agent, even
though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security
for the Guaranteed Obligations, has destroyed any Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and
reimbursement against Borrower by operation of CCP Section 580d or otherwise;
(m) any rights of subrogation and reimbursement, including (i) any defenses any
Guarantor may have by reason of an election of remedies by the Agent, and (ii) any rights or
defenses any Guarantor may have by reason of protection afforded to Borrower with respect to
the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to the anti-deficiency or other laws of California
limiting or discharging Borrower’s obligations, including CCP Sections 580a, 580b, 580d or
726;
(n) any notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, any rights, defenses and benefits that
may be derived from Sections 2787 to 2855, inclusive, of the California Civil Code or
comparable provisions of the laws of any other jurisdiction, and all other suretyship
defenses any Guarantor would otherwise have under the laws of California or any other
jurisdiction; and
(o) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of any
Guarantor) which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of such
Guarantor, or might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or
discharge of, a surety or a guarantor, including, without limitation, any right to require
or claim that resort be had to the Borrower or any other Loan Party or to any collateral in
respect of the Guaranteed Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations, other than repayment in
full of the Guaranteed Liabilities or Guarantors’ Obligations.
It is the express purpose and intent of the parties hereto that this Guaranty Agreement and the
Guarantors’ Obligations hereunder, and, as to additional Guarantors acceding to this Guaranty
Agreement after the date hereof, under the applicable Guaranty Joinder Agreement, shall be absolute
and unconditional under any and all circumstances and shall not be discharged except by payment as
herein provided.
No provision or waiver shall be construed as limiting the generality of any other provision or
waiver contained in this Guaranty. All of the waivers contained herein, to the extent permitted by
law, are irrevocable and unconditional and are intentionally and freely made by each Guarantor.
4. Currency and Funds of Payment. All Guarantors’ Obligations will be paid in lawful
currency of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, subject to any law,
regulation or decree now or hereafter in effect that might in any manner affect the Guaranteed
Liabilities, or the rights of any Benefited Party with respect thereto as against the Borrower, or
cause or permit to be invoked any alteration in the time, amount or manner of payment by the
Borrower of any or all of the Guaranteed Liabilities.
5
5. Events of Default. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2 hereof, in
the event that there shall occur and be continuing an Event of Default, then notwithstanding any
collateral or other security or credit support for the Guaranteed Liabilities, at Agent’s
election (at the request of or with the consent of the Required Lenders) and without notice thereof
or demand therefor, each of the Guaranteed Liabilities and the Guarantors’ Obligations shall
immediately be and become due and payable.
6. Subordination. Until this Guaranty Agreement is terminated in accordance with
Section 22 hereof, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally subordinates all present and
future debts, liabilities or obligations now or hereafter owing to such Guarantor (i) of the
Borrower, to the payment in full of the Guaranteed Liabilities, (ii) of every other Guarantor (an
“obligated guarantor”), to the payment in full of the Guarantor’s Obligations of such obligated
guarantor, and (iii) of each other Person now or hereafter constituting a Loan Party, to the
payment in full of the obligations of such Loan Party owing to any Benefited Party and arising
under the Loan Documents, Secured Cash Management Agreements or Secured Hedge Agreements. All
amounts then due under such subordinated debts, liabilities, or obligations shall, following any
acceleration by the Agent, be collected and, upon request by the Agent, paid over forthwith to the
Agent for the benefit of the Benefited Parties on account of the Guaranteed Liabilities, the
Guarantors’ Obligations, or such other obligations, as applicable, and, after such request and
pending such payment, shall be held by such Guarantor as agent and bailee of the Benefited Parties
separate and apart from all other funds, property and accounts of such Guarantor.
7. Suits. Each Guarantor from time to time shall pay to the Agent for the benefit of
the Benefited Parties, on demand, at the Administrative Agent’s Office or such other address as the
Agent shall give notice of to such Guarantor, the Guarantors’ Obligations as they become or are
declared due, and in the event such payment is not made forthwith, the Agent may proceed to suit
against any one or more or all of the Guarantors. At the Agent’s election, one or more and
successive or concurrent suits may be brought hereon by the Agent against any one or more or all of
the Guarantors, whether or not suit has been commenced against the Borrower, any other Guarantor,
or any other Person and whether or not the Benefited Parties have taken or failed to take any other
action to collect all or any portion of the Guaranteed Liabilities or have taken or failed to take
any actions against any collateral securing payment or performance of all or any portion of the
Guaranteed Liabilities, and irrespective of any event, occurrence, or condition described in
Section 3 hereof.
8. Set-Off and Waiver. Each Guarantor waives any right to assert against any
Benefited Party as a defense, counterclaim, set-off, recoupment or cross claim in respect of its
Guarantor’s Obligations, any defense (legal or equitable) or other claim which such Guarantor may
now or at any time hereafter have against the Borrower or any or all of the Benefited Parties
without waiving any additional defenses, set-offs, counterclaims or other claims otherwise
available to such Guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that each Benefited Party and each of its
Affiliates shall have a lien for all the Guarantor’s Obligations upon all deposits or deposit
accounts, of any kind, or any interest in any deposits or deposit accounts, now or hereafter
pledged, mortgaged, transferred or assigned to such Benefited Party or such Affiliate or otherwise
in the possession or control of such Benefited Party or such Affiliate for any purpose (other than
solely for safekeeping) for the account or benefit of such Guarantor, including any balance of any
deposit account or of any credit of such Guarantor with such Benefited Party or such Affiliate,
whether now existing or hereafter established, and hereby authorizes each
Benefited Party and each of its Affiliates from and after the occurrence of an Event of
Default at any time or from time to time, but in each case after obtaining the prior written
consent of the Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to apply such balances or
any part thereof to such of the Guarantor’s Obligations to the Benefited Parties then due and in
such amounts as provided for in the Credit Agreement or otherwise as they may elect. For the
purposes of this Section 8, all remittances and property shall be deemed to be in the
possession of a Benefited Party or its Affiliate as soon as the same may be put in transit to it by
mail or carrier or by other bailee.
6
9. Waiver of Notice; Subrogation.
(a) Each Guarantor hereby waives to the extent permitted by law notice of the following
events or occurrences: (i) acceptance of this Guaranty Agreement; (ii) the Lenders’
heretofore, now or from time to time hereafter making Loans and otherwise loaning monies or
giving or extending credit to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, or
otherwise entering into arrangements with any Loan Party giving rise to Guaranteed
Liabilities, whether pursuant to the Credit Agreement or the Notes or any other Loan
Document or Related Agreement or any amendments, modifications, or supplements thereto, or
replacements or extensions thereof; (iii) presentment, demand, default, non-payment, partial
payment and protest; (iv) any transfer or assignment pursuant to Section 18 hereof,
and (v) any other event, condition, or occurrence described in Section 3 hereof.
Each Guarantor agrees that each Benefited Party may heretofore, now or at any time hereafter
do any or all of the foregoing in such manner, upon such terms and at such times as each
Benefited Party, in its sole and absolute discretion, deems advisable, without in any way or
respect impairing, affecting, reducing or releasing such Guarantor from its Guarantor’s
Obligations, and each Guarantor hereby consents to each and all of the foregoing events or
occurrences.
(b) Each Guarantor hereby agrees that payment or performance by such Guarantor of its
Guarantor’s Obligations under this Guaranty Agreement may be enforced by the Agent on behalf
of the Benefited Parties upon demand by the Agent to such Guarantor without the Agent being
required, such Guarantor expressly waiving to the extent permitted by law any right it may
have to require the Agent, to (i) prosecute collection or seek to enforce or resort to any
remedies against the Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the
Guaranteed Liabilities, or (ii) seek to enforce or resort to any remedies with respect to
any security interests, Liens or encumbrances granted to the Agent or any Lender or other
party to a Related Agreement by the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person on
account of the Guaranteed Liabilities or any guaranty thereof, IT BEING EXPRESSLY
UNDERSTOOD, ACKNOWLEDGED AND AGREED TO BY SUCH GUARANTOR THAT DEMAND UNDER THIS GUARANTY
AGREEMENT MAY BE MADE BY THE AGENT, AND THE PROVISIONS HEREOF ENFORCED BY THE AGENT,
EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST DATE ANY EVENT OF DEFAULT OCCURS AND IS CONTINUING UNDER THE
CREDIT AGREEMENT.
7
(c) Each Guarantor further agrees that with respect to this Guaranty Agreement, such
Guarantor shall not exercise any of its rights of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution,
indemnity or recourse to security for the Guaranteed Liabilities until 93 days immediately
following the Facility Termination Date shall have elapsed without the filing or
commencement, by or against any Loan Party, of any state or federal action, suit, petition
or proceeding seeking any reorganization, liquidation or other relief or arrangement in
respect of creditors of, or the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee or
conservator in respect to, such Loan Party or its assets. If an amount shall be paid to any
Guarantor on account of such rights at any time prior to termination of this Guaranty
Agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 22 hereof, such amount shall
be held in trust for the benefit of the Benefited Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the
Agent, for the benefit of the Benefited Parties, to be credited and applied upon the
Guarantors’ Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the
Credit Agreement or otherwise as the Benefited Parties may elect. The agreements in this
subsection shall survive repayment of all of the Guarantors’ Obligations, the termination or
expiration of this Guaranty Agreement in any manner, including, but not limited to,
termination in accordance with Section 22 hereof, and occurrence of the Facility
Termination Date.
10. Effectiveness; Enforceability. This Guaranty Agreement shall be effective as of
the date first above written and shall continue in full force and effect until termination in
accordance with Section 22 hereof. Any claim or claims that the Benefited Parties may at
any time hereafter have against a Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement may be asserted by the
Agent on behalf of the Benefited Parties by written notice directed to such Guarantor in accordance
with Section 24 hereof.
11. Representations and Warranties. Each Guarantor warrants and represents to the
Agent, for the benefit of the Benefited Parties, that (a) it is duly authorized to execute and
deliver this Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as
applicable), and to perform its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement, (b) this Guaranty
Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as applicable) has been duly
executed and delivered on behalf of such Guarantor by its duly authorized representatives; (c) this

terms except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable
principles; and (d) such Guarantor’s execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty Agreement
(or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which such Guarantor is a party, as applicable) do not
violate or constitute a breach of (i) any of its Organization Documents, (ii) any agreement or
instrument to which such Guarantor is a party, or (iii) any Law to which it or its properties or
operations is subject.
8
12. Expenses and Indemnity. Each Guarantor agrees to be jointly and severally liable
for the payment of all reasonable fees and expenses, including Attorneys’ Costs, incurred by any
Benefited Party in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty Agreement, whether or not suit
be brought. Without limitation of any other obligations of any Guarantor or remedies
of the Agent or any Benefited Party under this Guaranty Agreement, each Guarantor shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by Law, indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless the Agent and
each Benefited Party from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all damages, losses,
liabilities and expenses (including Attorneys’ Costs) that may be suffered or incurred by the Agent
or such Benefited Party in connection with or as a result of any failure of any Guaranteed
Obligations to be the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Borrower or any other applicable
Loan Party enforceable against the Borrower or such applicable Loan Party in accordance with their
terms. The obligations of each Guarantor under this paragraph shall survive the payment in full of
the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of this Guaranty Agreement.
13. Reinstatement. Each Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty Agreement shall continue
to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, at any time payment received by any Benefited
Party in respect of any Guaranteed Liabilities is rescinded or must be restored for any reason, or
is repaid by any Benefited Party in whole or in part in good faith settlement of any pending or
threatened avoidance claim.
14. Attorney-in-Fact. To the extent permitted by law, each Guarantor hereby appoints
the Agent, for the benefit of the Benefited Parties, as such Guarantor’s attorney-in-fact for the
purposes of carrying out the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement and taking any action and
executing any instrument which the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes
hereof, which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable; provided, that
the Agent shall have and may exercise rights under this power of attorney only upon the occurrence
and during the continuance of an Event of Default.
15. Reliance. Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Agent, for the benefit of
the Benefited Parties, that: (a) such Guarantor has adequate means to obtain on a continuing basis
(i) from the Borrower or CSI, information concerning the Loan Parties and the Loan Parties’
financial condition and affairs, and (ii) from other reliable sources, such other information as it
deems material in deciding to provide this Guaranty Agreement and any Guaranty Joinder Agreement
(“Other Information”), and has full and complete access to the Loan Parties’ books and
records and to such Other Information; (b) such Guarantor is not relying on any Benefited Party or
its or their employees, directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, to provide any

requested, is executing this Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a
party, as applicable) freely and deliberately, and understands the obligations and financial risk
undertaken by providing this Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a
party, as applicable); (d) such Guarantor has relied solely on the Guarantor’s own independent
investigation, appraisal and analysis of the Borrower, the Borrower’s financial condition and
affairs, the Other Information, and such other matters as it deems material in deciding to provide
this Guaranty Agreement (or the Guaranty Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as applicable)
and is fully aware of the same; and (e) such Guarantor has not depended or relied on any Benefited
Party or its or their employees, directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, for any
information whatsoever concerning the Borrower or the Borrower’s financial condition and affairs or
any other matters material to such Guarantor’s decision to provide this Guaranty Agreement (or the
Guaranty
Joinder Agreement to which it is a party, as applicable), or for any counseling, guidance, or
special consideration or any promise therefor with respect to such decision. Each Guarantor agrees
that no Benefited Party has any duty or responsibility whatsoever, now or in the future, to provide
to such Guarantor any information concerning the Borrower or the Borrower’s financial condition and
affairs, or any Other Information, other than as expressly provided herein, and that, if such
Guarantor receives any such information from any Benefited Party or its or their employees,
directors, agents or other representatives or Affiliates, such Guarantor will independently verify
the information and will not rely on any Benefited Party or its or their employees, directors,

16. Rules of Interpretation. The rules of interpretation contained in Article
I of the Credit Agreement shall be applicable to this Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty
Joinder Agreement and are hereby incorporated by reference. All representations and warranties
contained herein shall survive the delivery of documents and any extension of credit referred to
herein or guaranteed hereby.
17. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty Agreement and each Guaranty Joinder Agreement,
together with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, constitutes and expresses the
entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and
supersedes all prior negotiations, agreements, understandings, inducements, commitments or
conditions, express or implied, oral or written, except as herein or therein contained. The
express terms hereof control and supersede any course of performance or usage of the trade
inconsistent with any of the terms hereof. Except as provided in Section 22, neither this
Guaranty Agreement nor any Guaranty Joinder Agreement nor any portion or provision hereof or
thereof may be changed, altered, modified, supplemented, discharged, canceled, terminated, or
amended orally or in any manner other than as provided in the Credit Agreement.
18. Binding Agreement; Assignment. This Guaranty Agreement, each Guaranty Joinder
Agreement and the terms, covenants and conditions hereof and thereof, shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and thereto, and to their respective heirs, legal
representatives, successors and assigns; provided, however, that no Guarantor shall
be permitted to assign any of its rights, powers, duties or obligations under this Guaranty
Agreement, any Guaranty Joinder Agreement or any other interest herein or therein without the prior
written consent of the Agent, except as expressly permitted in the Credit Agreement. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence of this Section 18, any Lender may assign
to one or more Persons, or grant to one or more Persons participations in or to, all or any part of
its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement (to the extent permitted by the Credit
Agreement); and to the extent of any such assignment or participation such other Person shall, to
the fullest extent permitted by law, thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect
thereof granted to such Lender herein or otherwise, subject however, to the provisions of the
Credit Agreement, including Article X thereof (concerning the Agent) and Section
11.06 thereof concerning assignments and participations. All references herein to the Agent
shall include any successor thereof.
10
19. Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. All obligations
of any Loan Party under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements to which
any Lender or its Affiliates are a party shall be deemed to be Guaranteed Liabilities, and each
Lender or Affiliate of a Lender party to any such Secured Cash Management Agreements or Secured
Hedge Agreements shall be deemed to be a Benefited Party hereunder with respect to such Guaranteed
Liabilities; provided, however, that such obligations shall cease to be Guaranteed
Liabilities at such time, prior to the Facility Termination Date, as such Person (or Affiliate of
such Person) shall cease to be a “Lender” under the Credit Agreement.
No Person who obtains the benefit of this Guaranty Agreement by virtue of the provisions of
this Section shall have, prior to the Facility Termination Date, any right to notice of any action
or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or
otherwise in respect of the Guarantors’ Obligations (including the release or modification of any
Guarantors’ Obligations or security therefor) other than in its capacity as a Lender and only to
the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Each Benefited Party not a party to the
Credit Agreement who obtains the benefit of this Guaranty Agreement by virtue of the provisions of
this Section shall be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Agent
pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, and that with respect to the actions and omissions
of the Agent hereunder or otherwise relating hereto that do or may affect such Benefited Party, the
Agent and each of its Related Parties shall be entitled to all the rights, benefits and immunities
conferred under Article X of the Credit Agreement.
20. Severability. The provisions of this Guaranty Agreement are independent of and
separable from each other. If any provision hereof shall for any reason be held invalid or
