AGREEMENTS

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of Landlord entering into the Lease with Tenant, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor agrees as follows:

1.    Guaranty. In consideration of the benefit derived or to be derived by it from the Lease, Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Landlord, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the following (the matters described in the following clause (a), clause (b) and clause (c), collectively, the “Obligations”), whenever incurred or accrued, including, without limitation, before the date of execution of this Guaranty:

(o)    except as provided in Section 14 below, any assignment of the Lease, or any subletting or subsubletting of, or any other occupancy arrangements in respect of, all or any part of the Facility;

(p)    any other defenses, other than a defense of payment or performance in full, as the case may be, of the Obligations;

(q)    the existence of any claim, setoff, counterclaim, defense or other rights that may at any time be available to, or asserted by, Guarantor or Tenant against Landlord, whether in connection with the Lease, the Obligations or otherwise;

(t)    the unenforceability (for any reason whatsoever) of this Guaranty, including, without limitation, as a result of rejection in any bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution or other proceeding; or

(u)    any other circumstances, whether or not Guarantor had notice or knowledge thereof.

3.    Primary Liability. The liability of Guarantor with respect to the Obligations shall be a primary, direct, immediate, continuing and unconditional guaranty of payment and performance

- 4 -

and not of collection, may not be revoked by Guarantor and shall continue to be effective with respect to all of the Obligations notwithstanding any attempted revocation by Guarantor and shall not be conditional or contingent upon the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Lease or any other documents or instruments relating to the Obligations, including, without limitation, any Person’s lack of authority or lawful right to enter into such document on such Person’s behalf, or the pursuit by Landlord of any remedies Landlord may have. Without limitation of the foregoing, Landlord may proceed against Guarantor: (a) prior to or in lieu of proceeding against Tenant, its assets, any security deposit, or any other guarantor or any other Person; and (b) prior to or in lieu of pursuing any other rights or remedies available to Landlord. All rights and remedies afforded to Landlord by reason of this Guaranty or by law are separate, independent and cumulative, and the exercise of any rights or remedies shall not in any way limit, restrict or prejudice the exercise of any other rights or remedies.

Following the occurrence of a Tenant Event of Default, a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether or not Tenant is joined therein or a separate action or actions are brought against Tenant. Landlord may maintain successive actions for other defaults. Landlord’s rights hereunder shall not be exhausted by its exercise of any of its rights or remedies or by any such action or by any number of successive actions until and unless all indebtedness and Obligations, the payment and performance of which are hereby guaranteed, have been paid and fully performed.

4.    Obligations Not Affected. In such manner, upon such terms and at such times as Landlord in its sole discretion deems necessary or expedient, and without notice to Guarantor, Landlord may: (a) amend, alter, compromise, accelerate, extend or change the time or manner for the payment or the performance of any Obligation hereby guaranteed; (b) extend, amend or terminate the Lease; or (c) release Tenant by consent to any assignment (or otherwise) as to all or any portion of the Obligations hereby guaranteed, in each case pursuant to the terms of the Lease. Any exercise or non-exercise by Landlord of any right hereby given to Landlord, dealing by Landlord with Guarantor or any other guarantor, Tenant or any other Person, or change, impairment, release or suspension of any right or remedy of Landlord against any Person, including, without limitation, Tenant and any other guarantor, will not affect any of the Obligations of Guarantor hereunder or give Guarantor any recourse or offset against Landlord.

5.    Waiver. With respect to the Lease, Guarantor hereby waives and relinquishes all rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to sureties and/or guarantors or any other accommodation parties, under any statutory provisions, common law or any other provision of law, custom or practice, and agrees not to assert or take advantage of any such rights or remedies including, but not limited to:

(a)    any right to require Landlord to proceed against Tenant or any other Person or to proceed against or exhaust any security held by Landlord at any time or to pursue any other remedy in Landlord’s power before proceeding against Guarantor or to require that Landlord cause a marshaling of Tenant’s assets or any assets given as collateral for this Guaranty, or to proceed against Tenant and/or any collateral held by Landlord at any time or in any particular order;

- 5 -

(b)    any defense that may arise by reason of the incapacity or lack of authority of any Person or Persons;

(c)    notice of the existence, creation or incurring of any new or additional indebtedness or obligation or of any action or non-action on the part of Tenant, Landlord, any creditor of Tenant or Guarantor or on the part of any other Person whomsoever under this or any other instrument in connection with any obligation or evidence of indebtedness held by Landlord or in connection with any obligation hereby guaranteed;

(d)    any defense based upon an election of remedies by Landlord which destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of Guarantor or the right of Guarantor to proceed against Tenant for reimbursement, or both;

(e)    any defense based upon any statute or rule of law which provides that the obligation of a surety must be neither larger in amount nor in other respects more burdensome than that of the principal;

(f)    any duty on the part of Landlord to disclose to Guarantor any facts Landlord may now or hereafter know about Tenant, regardless of whether Landlord has reason to believe that any such facts materially increase the risk beyond that which Guarantor intends to assume or has reason to believe that such facts are unknown to Guarantor or has a reasonable opportunity to communicate such facts to Guarantor, it being understood and agreed that Guarantor is fully responsible for being and keeping informed of the financial condition of Tenant and of all circumstances bearing on the risk of non-payment or non-performance of any Obligations or indebtedness hereby guaranteed;

(g)    any defense arising because of Landlord’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the Federal Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 (11 U.S.C. § 101, et seq.), as amended, reformed or modified from time to time and any rules or regulations issued from time to time thereunder (the “Bankruptcy Code”) of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code;

(h)    any defense based on any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code; and

(i)    all rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to guarantors, including, without limitation, any extension of time conferred by any law now or hereafter in effect and any requirement or notice of acceptance of this Guaranty or any other notice to which the undersigned may now or hereafter be entitled to the extent such waiver of notice is permitted by applicable law.

6.    Enforcement.

    (a)    The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of Tenant under the Lease. This Guaranty may be enforced by Landlord without the necessity at any time of resorting to or exhausting any other security (such as, for example, any security deposit of Tenant held by Landlord) or collateral and without the necessity at any time of having recourse

- 6 -

to the remedy provisions of the Lease (such as, for example, terminating the Lease) or otherwise, and Guarantor hereby expressly waives the right to require Landlord to proceed against Tenant or any other Person, to exercise its rights and remedies under the Lease, or to pursue any other remedy whatsoever against any Person, security or collateral or enforce any other right at law or in equity. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, it shall not be necessary for Landlord (and Guarantor hereby waives any rights which it may have to require Landlord), in order to enforce any Obligation against Guarantor, first to institute suit or exhaust its remedies against any other Person, security or collateral or resort to any other means of obtaining payment of any Obligation. Nothing herein shall prevent Landlord from suing any Person to enforce the terms of the Lease or from exercising any other rights available to Landlord under the Lease or any other instrument or agreement, and the exercise of any of the aforesaid rights shall not affect the obligations of Guarantor hereunder. Guarantor understands that the exercise, or any forbearance from exercising, by Landlord of certain rights and remedies contained in the Lease may affect or eliminate Guarantor’s right of subrogation against Tenant and that Guarantor may therefore incur liability hereunder that is not subject to reimbursement; nevertheless Guarantor hereby authorizes and empowers Landlord to exercise, in its sole discretion, any rights and remedies, or any combination thereof, which may then be available, it being the purpose and intent of Guarantor that its Obligations hereunder shall be absolute, independent and unconditional, in each case in accordance with its terms hereunder.

    (b)    No failure or delay on the part of Landlord in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Guaranty shall operate as a waiver of or otherwise affect any such right, power or privilege, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.

    (c)    It is understood that Landlord, without impairing this Guaranty, may, subject to the terms of the Lease, apply payments from Tenant or any subtenant of the Leased Property or from any reletting of the Leased Property upon a Tenant Event of Default or from or in connection with any exercise of rights or remedies, to any due and unpaid rent or other charges or to such other Obligations owed by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the Lease in such amounts and in such order as Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion, determines; provided that any amount so paid and applied reduces the aggregate outstanding liabilities of Tenant under the Lease by such amount as required under the Lease.

7.    Information. Guarantor (a) assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition and assets of Tenant and its Affiliates and any other guarantor, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and (b) agrees that Landlord will not have any duty to advise Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks.

8.    No Subrogation. Until the Guaranty Termination Date (as defined in Section 14), Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation and waives (a) any right to enforce any remedy which Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Tenant or any of Tenant’s assets (including any such remedy of Landlord) and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by Landlord with respect to the Lease, (b) any rights of reimbursement, indemnity

- 7 -

or subrogation against Tenant arising from any payment of Obligations by Guarantor, and (c) any right of contribution Guarantor may have against any other Person that is liable under the Lease arising from such payment or otherwise in connection with the Lease or this Guaranty.

9.    Agreement to Comply with terms of Lease. Guarantor hereby agrees (a) to comply with all terms of the Lease applicable to it, (b) that it shall take no action, and that it shall not omit to take any action, which action or omission, as applicable, would cause a breach of the terms of the Lease, and (c) that it shall not commence an involuntary proceeding or file an involuntary petition in any court of competent jurisdiction seeking (i) relief in respect of Tenant or any of its Subsidiaries, or of a substantial part of the property or assets of Tenant or any of its Subsidiaries, under the Bankruptcy Code, or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, or (ii) the appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian, sequestrator, conservator or similar official for Tenant or any of its Subsidiaries or for a substantial part of the property or assets of Tenant or any of its Subsidiaries.

10.    Agreement to Pay; Contribution; Subordination. Without limitation of any other provision of this Guaranty, including, without limitation, Section 8 above, or any other right of Landlord at law or in equity, upon the failure of Tenant to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to Landlord in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligation. Upon payment by Guarantor of any sums to Landlord as provided above, all rights of Guarantor against Tenant arising as a result thereof by way of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall be subject to the limitations set forth in Section 8 above and this Section 10. Guarantor further agrees that any rights of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise which Guarantor may have against Tenant or against any collateral or security, and any rights of contribution Guarantor may have against any other Person, in connection with any payment of Obligations or otherwise under this Guaranty or the Lease by Guarantor shall be junior and subordinate to any rights Landlord may have against Tenant or any such other Person, to all right, title and interest Landlord may have in any such collateral or security, and to any rights Landlord may have against Tenant or any such other Person. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of any such reimbursement, indemnity, subrogation or contribution rights at any time prior to the Guaranty Termination Date when a Tenant Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such amount shall be held in trust for Landlord and shall forthwith be paid over to Landlord to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Lease or any applicable security agreement. If for any reason whatsoever Tenant now or hereafter becomes indebted to Guarantor or any Affiliate of Guarantor, such indebtedness and all interest thereon shall at all times be junior and subordinate to Tenant’s obligation to Landlord to pay and perform as and when due in accordance with the terms of the Lease the guaranteed Obligations, it being understood that Guarantor and each Affiliate of Guarantor shall be permitted to receive payments from Tenant on account of such indebtedness (but subject in all events to the preceding provisions of this Section 10), except during any period that any Tenant Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. During any such period, Guarantor agrees to make no claim for such indebtedness that does not recite that such claim is expressly junior and subordinate to Landlord’s rights and remedies under the Lease. Furthermore, in the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtor’s relief, or other insolvency

- 8 -

proceedings involving Tenant as debtor, Guarantor hereby assigns to Landlord any right it may have to prove its claim in any such proceeding so as to establish its rights hereunder and receive directly from receiver, trustee or other court custodian dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable to Guarantor with respect to debts and liability owing by Tenant to Guarantor up to the amounts owed to Landlord hereunder.

11.    Application of Payments. With respect to the Lease, and with or without notice to Guarantor, Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion and at any time and from time to time and in such manner and upon such terms as Landlord deems appropriate, may (a) following the occurrence of a Tenant Event of Default, apply any or all payments or recoveries from Tenant or from any other guarantor under any other instrument or realized from any security, in such manner and order of priority as Landlord may determine, to any indebtedness or other obligation of Tenant with respect to the Lease and whether or not such indebtedness or other obligation is guaranteed hereby or is otherwise secured, and (b) refund to Tenant any payment received by Landlord under the Lease.

12.    Guaranty Default. Upon the failure of Guarantor to pay the amounts required to be paid hereunder when due following the occurrence of a Tenant Event of Default under the Lease, Landlord shall have the right to bring such actions at law or in equity, including, without limitation, appropriate injunctive relief, as it deems appropriate to compel compliance, payment or deposit, and among other remedies to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees in any proceeding, including any appeal therefrom and any post judgment proceedings.

13.    Maximum Liability. Each of Guarantor and, by its acceptance of the guarantees provided herein, Landlord, hereby confirms that it is the intention of such Person that the guarantees provided herein and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to the guarantees provided herein and the obligations of Guarantor hereunder. To effectuate the foregoing intention, Landlord hereby irrevocably agrees that the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in such obligations not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

14.    Release. Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder upon the earlier to occur of either of the following:  (x) (other than with respect to amounts then due and payable by Guarantor) upon the consummation of a Lease Foreclosure Transaction pursuant to clause (i) of Section 22.2 of the Lease, and (y) upon the irrevocable satisfaction and discharge in full of all of the Obligations (the date upon which such release occurs, the “Guaranty Termination Date”); provided (in the case of clause (x)) that Landlord shall have received a Replacement Guaranty from a Qualified Replacement Guarantor in accordance with clause (i) of Section 22.2 of the Lease (and, in the case of such a Replacement Guaranty delivered in connection with a New Lease obtained pursuant to Section 17.1(f) of the Lease, such New Lease shall satisfy the requirements for a New Lease contained in the last sentence of Section 17.1(f), including that it be at the rent and additional rent, and upon  the terms, covenants and conditions of, the Lease; it being understood that (i) the Obligations hereunder shall in no event include the obligations of the

- 9 -

tenant under a New Lease, and (ii) the preceding clause (i) shall in no event be deemed to vitiate the Obligations hereunder in respect of the Lease).
