Exhibit 10.32(d)
GUARANTY
This GUARANTY, dated as of December 1, 2000, is made by AAMES FINANCIAL
CORPORATION, a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware
("GUARANTOR"), in favor of Xxxxxx Brothers Bank, FSB, a corporation organized
under the laws of the State of New York ("XXXXXX").
As an inducement to and in consideration for Xxxxxx to enter into the
Master Repurchase Agreement Governing Purchases and Sales of Mortgage Loans
dated as of the date hereof (the "REPURCHASE AGREEMENT") between Xxxxxx and
Aames Capital Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Guarantor ("AAMES"),
the Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual
payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
otherwise, of all obligations of Aames now or hereafter existing under the
Repurchase Agreement (such obligations being the "OBLIGATIONS"), and agree to
pay any and all expenses incurred by Xxxxxx in enforcing any rights under this
Guaranty. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Xxxxxx
shall not be required to exhaust any right to remedy or take any action against
Aames, any guarantor, any other person, any collateral or any credit support.
The Guarantor guarantees that the Obligations will be paid or performed
strictly in accordance with their terms. The liability of the Guarantor under
this Guaranty shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of any defense
whatsoever available to Aames or a guarantor, including but not limited to the
following: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability or any Obligation or any
agreement or instrument related thereto; (b) any change in the time, manner or
place of payment or performance of, or in any term of, all or any of the
Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to the departure
from any Obligation or any agreement or instrument related thereto; (c) any
exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any release or
amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all
or any of the Obligations; or (d) any law, regulation or order of any
jurisdiction affecting or purporting to affect any terms of any Obligation or of
any agreement or instrument relating thereto or any of Xxxxxx'x rights with
respect thereto (including, without limitation, any stay imposed by the Federal
bankruptcy laws).
This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in full force
and effect until the Obligations have been paid in full.
The Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance
and any other notice with respect to any of the Obligations or this Guaranty.
This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may
be, if any payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be
returned by Xxxxxx upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Aames or
otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
The Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way
of subrogation under this Guaranty, by any payment made hereunder or otherwise,
until all the Obligations shall have been paid in full. If any amount shall be
paid to the Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all
the Obligations shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held in
trust for the benefit of Xxxxxx and shall forthwith be paid to Xxxxxx to be
applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the
terms of such Obligations and any related agreement or instrument.
Any and all payments made by the Guarantor hereunder shall be made free
and clear of and without deduction from any and all present and future taxes,
levies, deductions, charges or withholdings and all liabilities with respect
thereof, excluding taxes imposed on Xxxxxx'x income and franchise taxes imposed
on Xxxxxx by the jurisdiction under which Xxxxxx is organized.
