“(b) Payment of the Notes owed by each of the Borrowers will be guaranteed by the other Borrower pursuant to Unlimited Guaranties dated November 7, 2008, executed by Borrowers, respectively, in favor of Lender; and payment of the Notes will also be contingently guaranteed by each of the Guarantors pursuant to Contingent Guaranties dated November 7, 2008, and March 31, 2009, executed by each of the Guarantors in favor of Lender. The Guaranties now or hereafter signed by Borrowers and Guarantors, and all replacements for those Guaranties, as amended, shall be collectively called the “Guaranties.” The liability of the Guarantors under the Guaranties shall only be triggered if there is an Event of Default, which is not cured on or before the end of any notice, cure, or grace period required under the Loan Agreement. Once triggered, the liability of each of the Guarantors shall be limited to the amounts stated in Schedule 1 to this Amendment, and the Guaranties shall remain valid and subsisting, even if the Event of Default is later cured, until otherwise agreed in writing by Lender. So long as there is no existing Event of Default, Lender will consider Borrowers’ written request to release one or more of the Guarantors, who have transferred their ownership interest in Borrower, so long as (1) Borrowers propose a replacement guarantor reasonably acceptable to Lender, and that replacement guarantor signs and delivers a limited guaranty in Proper Form, or (2) Borrowers propose the increase of the liability limits of one or more of the Guarantors to replace the released Guarantors, and the affected Guarantors sign and deliver an amendment in Proper Form evidencing such increase. Any release of a Guarantor, replacement of a Guarantor, or increase of the Guarantors’ liability limits is subject to appropriate credit approval by Lender.”
