be acquired by Guarantor. The Guarantor Claims shall include without limitation
all rights and claims of Guarantor against Borrower arising as a result of

same to Bank.
Section 5.4 Liens Subordinate. Guarantor agrees that any liens,
-----------------
security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon
Borrower's assets securing payment of the Guarantor Claims shall be and remain

charges or other encumbrances upon Borrower's assets securing payment of the
Liabilities, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of Guarantor or
the Bank presently exist of are hereafter created or attach. Without the prior
written consent of the Bank, Guarantor shall not (a) exercise or enforce any
creditor's right it may have against the Borrower, or (b) foreclose, repossess,
