In consideration of TILES TRUST NO. 2005-1 (hereinafter “Counterparty”) having entered into or entering into that certain ISDA Master Agreement dated as of January 6, 2006 with Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Capital Services LLC (hereinafter “Obligor”) (such ISDA Master Agreement, together with each Confirmation exchanged between the parties pursuant thereto, hereinafter the “Agreement”), Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter “Guarantor”), hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Counterparty, with effect from the date of the Agreement, the due and punctual payment of all amounts payable by Obligor under the Agreement when the same shall become due and payable, whether on scheduled payment dates, upon demand, upon declaration of termination or otherwise, in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of the Agreement and giving effect to any applicable grace period. Upon failure of Obligor punctually to pay any such amounts, and upon written demand by Counterparty to Guarantor at its address set forth in the signature block of this guarantee (the “Guarantee”) (or to such other address as Guarantor may specify in writing), Guarantor agrees to pay or cause to be paid such amounts; provided that delay by Counterparty in giving such demand shall in no event affect Guarantor's obligations under this Guarantee. This Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.
Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be continuing and unconditional and will not be discharged except by complete payment of the amounts payable under the Agreement, irrespective of (1) any claim as to the Agreement's validity, regularity or enforceability or the lack of authority of Obligor to execute or deliver the Agreement; or (2) any change in or amendment to the Agreement; or (3) any waiver or consent by Counterparty with respect to any provisions thereof; or (4) the absence or existence of any action to enforce the Agreement, or the recovery of any judgment against Obligor or of any action to enforce a judgment against Obligor under the Agreement; or (5) the dissolution, winding up, liquidation or insolvency of Obligor, including any discharge of obligations therefrom; or (6) any similar circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor generally.
Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand on Obligor for payment or otherwise (except as provided hereinabove), filing of claims, requirement of a prior proceeding against Obligor and protest or notice, except as provided for in the Agreement with respect to amounts payable by Obligor. If at any time payment under the Agreement is rescinded or must be otherwise restored or returned by Counterparty upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Obligor or Guarantor or otherwise, Guarantor's obligations hereunder with respect to such payment shall be reinstated upon such restoration or return being made by Counterparty.
Guarantor represents to Counterparty, as of the date hereof, that:
1.
