NOW, THEREFORE, as an inducement to Lessor to enter into the Lease with
Lessee, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
NATURE AND SCOPE OF GUARANTY
1.1 Guaranty of Obligation.
(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 1.1(b)
hereof, Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Lessor
(and its successors and assigns), the
2
payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations as and when the
same shall be due and payable. Guarantor irrevocably and
unconditionally agrees that it is liable for the Guaranteed Obligations
as a primary obligor, and that it shall fully perform each and every
term and provision hereof.
(b) Anything in this Guaranty to the contrary notwithstanding,
the right of recovery by Lessor against Guarantor under this Guaranty
is limited to Guarantor's interests in Lessee and the lessees under the
leases listed on Exhibit A attached hereto and made a part hereof, and
such parties permitted successors and assigns (whether by operation of
law or otherwise). Lessor shall not look to any other property or asset
of Guarantor in seeking to enforce Guarantor's obligations under this
Guaranty or to satisfy any judgement for Guarantor's failure to perform
its obligations under this Guaranty.
1.2 Definition of Guaranteed Obligations. As used herein, the term
"Guaranteed Obligations" shall mean all of the obligations and liabilities of
Lessee under the Lease, including without limitation, the obligation to pay all
Base Rent, Percentage Rent, and Additional Charges (as those terms are defined
in the Lease) as and when due.
1.3 Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty is an irrevocable, absolute,
continuing guaranty of payment and performance and is not a guaranty of
collection. This Guaranty may not be revoked by Guarantor and shall continue to
be effective with respect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising or created after
any attempted revocation by Guarantor. The fact that at any time or from time to
time the Guaranteed Obligations may be increased or reduced shall not release or
discharge the obligation of Guarantor to Lessor with respect to Guaranteed
Obligations. This Guaranty may be enforced by Lessor and any subsequent owner of
Lessor's interest under the Lease.
1.4 Payment by Guarantor. If all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations is not paid when due, Guarantor shall immediately upon demand by
Lessor pay in lawful money of the United States of America the amount due on the
Guaranteed Obligations to Lessor at Lessor's address as set forth herein. Such
demand(s) may be made at any time coincident with or after the time for payment
of all or part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and may be made from time to time
with respect to the same or different items of Guaranteed Obligations. Such
demand shall be deemed made, given and received in accordance with the notice
provisions hereof.
1.5 No Duty to Pursue Others. It shall not be necessary for Lessor (and
Guarantor hereby waives any rights which Guarantor may have to require Lessor),
in order to enforce such payment by Guarantor, first to (i) institute suit or
exhaust its remedies against Lessee or others liable under the Lease or the
Guaranteed Obligations or any other person, (ii) enforce Lessor's rights against
any collateral which shall ever have been given to secure Lessee's obligations
under the Lease, (iii) enforce Lessor's rights against any other guarantors of
the Guaranteed Obligations, (iv) join Lessee or any others liable on the
Guaranteed Obligations in any action seeking to enforce this Guaranty, or (v)
resort to any other means of obtaining payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.
-2-
3
Lessor shall not be required to mitigate damages or take any other action to
reduce, collect or enforce the Guaranteed Obligations.
1.6 Waivers. Guarantor agrees to the provisions of the Lease, and
hereby waives notice of (i) acceptance of this Guaranty, (ii) any amendment or
extension of the Lease, (iii) the occurrence of any breach by Lessee or Event of
Default as defined in the Lease, (iv) Lessor's transfer or disposition of its
interest under the Lease, or any part thereof, or (v) any other action at any
time taken or omitted by Lessor, and, generally, all demands and notices of
every kind in connection with this Guaranty, the Lease, or relating to any of
the Guaranteed Obligations.
1.7 Payment of Expenses. If Guarantor fails to timely perform any
provisions of this Guaranty, Guarantor shall, immediately upon demand by Lessor,
pay Lessor all costs and expenses (including court costs and reasonable
attorneys' fees) incurred by Lessor in the enforcement hereof or the
preservation of Lessor's rights hereunder. The covenant contained in this
section shall survive the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations.
1.8 Effect of Bankruptcy. If, pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization, receivership or other debtor relief law, or any judgment, order
or decision thereunder, Lessor must rescind or restore any payment, or any part
thereof, received by Lessor in satisfaction of the Guaranteed Obligations, as
set forth herein, any prior release or discharge from the terms of this Guaranty
given to Guarantor by Lessor shall be without effect, and this Guaranty shall
remain in full force and effect. Lessee and Guarantor intend that Guarantor's
obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by Guarantor's performance
of such obligations and then only to the extent of such performance.
1.9 Deferment of Rights of Subrogation, Reimbursement and
Contribution.
(a) Notwithstanding any payment or payments made by Guarantor
hereunder, Guarantor will not assert or exercise any right of Lessor or
of Guarantor against Lessee to recover the amount of any payment made
by Guarantor to Lessor by way of subrogation, reimbursement,
contribution, indemnity, or otherwise arising by contract or operation
of law, and Guarantor shall not have any right of recourse to or any
claim against assets or property of Lessee, whether or not the
obligations of Lessee have been satisfied, all of rights being herein
expressly waived by Guarantor. If any amount shall nevertheless be paid
to Guarantor by Lessee prior to payment in full of the Obligations
(hereinafter defined), such amount shall be held in trust for the
benefit of Lessor and shall forthwith be paid to Lessor to be credited
and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured. The
provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this
Guaranty, and any satisfaction and discharge of Lessee by virtue of any
payment, court order or any applicable law.
-3-

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 1.9(a), Guarantor
shall be entitled to (i) all rights of subrogation otherwise provided
by applicable law in respect of any payment it may make or be obligated
to make under this Guaranty and (ii) all claims it would have against
Guarantor in the absence of Section 1.9(a) and to assert and enforce
same, in each case on and after, but at no time prior to, the date (the
"Subrogation Trigger Date") which is 91 days after the date on which
all sums owed to Lessor under the Lease (the "Obligations") have been
paid in full, if and only if the existence of Guarantor's rights under
this Section 1.10(b) would not make Guarantor a creditor (as defined in
the United States Bankruptcy Code [the "Bankruptcy Code"]) of Lessee or
any other Guarantor in any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or
similar proceeding commenced on or prior to the Subrogation Trigger
Date.
1.10 Bankruptcy Code Waiver. The parties intend that Guarantor shall
not be deemed to be a "creditor" (as defined in Section 101 of the Bankruptcy
Code) of Lessee by reason of the existence of this Guaranty, in the event that
Lessee becomes a debtor in any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code, and in
connection herewith, Guarantor waives any such right as a "creditor" under the
Bankruptcy Code. After Lessee's obligations under the Lease are discharged in
full and there shall be no obligations or liabilities under this Guaranty
outstanding, this waiver shall be deemed to be terminated.
1.11 Lessee. The term "Lessee" as used herein shall include any new or
successor corporation, association, partnership (general or limited), joint
venture, trust or other individual or organization formed as a result of any
merger, reorganization, sale, transfer, devise, gift or bequest of Lessee or any
interest in Lessee.
ARTICLE II
EVENTS AND CIRCUMSTANCES NOT REDUCING
OR DISCHARGING GUARANTOR'S OBLIGATIONS
Guarantor's obligations under this Guaranty shall not be released,
diminished, impaired, reduced or adversely affected by any of the following, and
Guarantor waives any common law, equitable, statutory or other rights (including
without limitation rights to notice) which Guarantor might otherwise have as a
result any of the following:
(a) Modifications. Any renewal, extension, or modification of all
or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or the Lease; provided
Guarantor is notified of same.
(b) Adjustment. Any adjustment, indulgence, forbearance or

Guarantor.

(c) Condition of Lessee or Guarantor. The insolvency, bankruptcy,
arrangement, adjustment, composition, liquidation, disability,
dissolution or lack of power of Lessee, Guarantor or any other party at
any time liable for the payment of all or part of the Guaranteed
Obligations; or any dissolution of Lessee or Guarantor, or any sale,
lease or transfer of any or all of the assets of Lessee or Guarantor,
or any changes in the shareholders, partners or members of Lessee or
Guarantor; or any reorganization of Lessee or Guarantor.
(d) Invalidity of Guaranteed Obligations. The invalidity,
illegality or unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations, or any document or agreement executed in connection with
the Guaranteed Obligations, for any reason whatsoever, including
without limitation the fact that (i) the Guaranteed Obligations, or any
part thereof, exceeds the amount permitted by law, (ii) the act of
creating the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof is ultra xxxxx,
(iii) the officers or representatives executing the Lease or otherwise
creating the Guaranteed Obligations acted in excess of their authority,
(iv) the Guaranteed Obligations violate applicable usury laws, (v)
Lessee has valid defenses, claims or offsets (whether at law, in equity
or by agreement) which render the Guaranteed Obligations wholly or
partially uncollectible from Lessee, (vi) the creation, performance or
repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations (or the execution, delivery and
performance of any document or instrument representing part of the
Guaranteed Obligations or executed in connection with the Guaranteed
Obligations, or given to secure the repayment of the Guaranteed
Obligations) is illegal, uncollectible or unenforceable, or (vii) the
Lease has been forged or otherwise are irregular or not genuine or
authentic, it being agreed that Guarantor shall remain liable hereon
regardless of whether Lessee or any other person be found not liable on
the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof for any reason.
(e) Release of Obligors. Any full or partial release of the
liability of Lessee on the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof,
or of any co-guarantors, or any other person or entity now or hereafter
liable, whether directly or indirectly, jointly, severally, or jointly
and severally, to pay, perform, guarantee or assure the payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, it being recognized,
acknowledged and agreed by Guarantor that Guarantor may be required to
pay the Guaranteed Obligations in full without assistance or support of
any other party, and Guarantor has not been induced to enter into this
Guaranty on the basis of a contemplation, belief, understanding or
agreement that other parties will be liable to pay or perform the
Guaranteed Obligations, or that Lessor will look to other parties to
pay or perform the Guaranteed Obligations.
(f) Offset. The Lease, the Guaranteed Obligations and the
liabilities and obligations of Guarantor to Lessor hereunder, shall not
be reduced, discharged or released because of or by reason of any
existing or future right of offset, claim or defense of Lessee against
Lessor, or any other party, or against payment of the Guaranteed
Obligations,
-5-

whether such right of offset, claim or defense arises in connection
with the Guaranteed Obligations (or the transactions creating the
Guaranteed Obligations) or otherwise.
(g) Merger. The reorganization, merger or consolidation of Lessee
into or with any other corporation or entity.
(h) Preference. Any payment by Lessee to Lessor is held to
constitute a preference under bankruptcy laws, or for any reason Lessor
is required to refund such payment or pay such amount to Lessee or
someone else.
(i) Other Actions Taken or Omitted. Any other action taken or
omitted to be taken with respect to the Lease, the Guaranteed
Obligations, whether or not such action or omission prejudices
Guarantor or increases the likelihood that Guarantor will be required
to pay the Guaranteed Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, it is
the unambiguous and unequivocal intention of Guarantor that Guarantor
shall be obligated to pay the Guaranteed Obligations when due,
notwithstanding any occurrence, circumstance, event, action, or
omission whatsoever, whether or not contemplated, and whether or not
otherwise or particularly described herein, which obligation shall be
deemed satisfied only upon the full and final payment and satisfaction
of the Guaranteed Obligations.
ARTICLE III
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
3.1 Representations. To induce Lessor to enter into the Lease with
Lessee, Guarantor represents and warrants to Lessor as follows:
(a) Benefit. Guarantor is an affiliate of Lessee, is the owner of
a direct or indirect interest in Lessee, and has received, or will
receive, direct or indirect benefit from the making of this Guaranty
with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.
(b) Familiarity and Reliance. Guarantor is familiar with, and
has independently reviewed books and records regarding, the financial
condition of Lessee; however, Guarantor is not relying on such
financial condition or the collateral as an inducement to enter into
this Guaranty.
(c) No Representation by Lessor. Neither Lessor nor any other
party has made any representation, warranty or statement to Guarantor
in order to induce Guarantor to execute this Guaranty.
(d) Guarantor's Financial Condition. As of the date hereof, and
after giving effect to this Guaranty and the contingent obligation
evidenced hereby, Guarantor is, and
-6-
7
will be, solvent, and has and will have assets which, fairly valued,
exceed its obligations, liabilities (including contingent liabilities)
and debts, and has and will have property and assets sufficient to
satisfy and repay its obligations and liabilities.
(e) Legality. The execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor
of this Guaranty and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereunder do not, and will not, contravene or conflict with any law,
statute or regulation whatsoever to which Guarantor is subject or
constitute a default (or an event which with notice or lapse of time or
both would constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of, any
indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, charge, lien, or any contract,
agreement or other instrument to which Guarantor is a party or which
may be applicable to Guarantor. This Guaranty is a legal and binding
obligation of Guarantor and is enforceable in accordance with its
terms, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other laws of
general application relating to the enforcement of creditors' rights.
(f) Review of Documents. Guarantor has examined the Lease.
3.2 Survival. All representations and warranties made by Guarantor
herein shall survive the execution hereof.
ARTICLE IV
SUBORDINATION OF CERTAIN INDEBTEDNESS
4.1 Subordination of All Guarantor Claims. As used herein, the term
"Guarantor Claims" shall mean all debts and liabilities of Lessee to Guarantor,
whether such debts and liabilities now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise,
or whether the obligations of Lessee thereon be direct, contingent, primary,
secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether
such debts or liabilities be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or
otherwise, and irrespective of the person or persons in whose favor such debts
or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created,
or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by Guarantor.
The Guarantor Claims shall include without limitation all rights and claims of
Guarantor against Lessee (arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise) as a
result of Guarantor's payment of all or a portion of the Guaranteed Obligations
to the extent the provisions of Article II(f) hereof are unenforceable. Upon the
occurrence of an Event of Default or the occurrence of an event which would,
with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, constitute an Event
of Default, Guarantor shall not receive or collect, directly or indirectly, from
Lessee or any other party any amount upon the Guarantor Claims.
4.2 Claims in Bankruptcy. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, debtor's relief, or other insolvency proceedings
involving Guarantor as debtor, Lessor shall have the right to prove its claim in
any such proceeding so as to establish its rights hereunder
-7-
8
and receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian
dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable upon Guarantor Claims.
Guarantor assigns such dividends and payments to Lessor. Should Lessor receive,
for application upon the Guaranteed Obligations, any such dividend or payment
which is otherwise payable to Guarantor, and which, as between Lessee and
Guarantor, shall constitute a credit upon the Guarantor Claims, then upon
payment to Lessor in full of the Guaranteed Obligations, Guarantor shall become
subrogated to the rights of Lessor to the extent that such payments to Lessor on
the Guarantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Guaranteed
Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of
the Guaranteed Obligations which would have been unpaid if Lessor had not
received dividends or payments upon the Guarantor Claims.
4.3 Payments Held in Trust. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Guaranty, if Guarantor should receive any funds, payments, claims or
distributions which are prohibited by this Guaranty, Guarantor agrees to hold in
trust for Lessor an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims or
distributions so received, and agrees that it shall have absolutely no dominion
over the amount of such funds, payments, claims or distributions so received
except to pay them promptly to Lessor, and Guarantor covenants promptly to pay
the same to Lessor.
4.4 Liens Subordinate. Any liens, security interests, judgment liens,
charges or other encumbrances upon Lessee's assets securing payment of the
Guarantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any liens,
security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon Lessee's
assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Obligations, regardless of whether
such encumbrances in favor of Guarantor or Lessor presently exist or are
hereafter created or attach. Without the prior written consent of Lessor,
Guarantor shall not (a) exercise or enforce any creditor's right it may have
against Lessee, or (b) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps
or institute any action or proceedings (judicial or otherwise, including without
limitation the commencement of, or joinder in, any liquidation, bankruptcy,
rearrangement, debtor's relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any liens,
mortgages, deeds of trust, security interest, collateral rights, judgments or
other encumbrances on assets of Lessee held by Guarantor.
ARTICLE V
MISCELLANEOUS
5.1 Waiver. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the
part of Lessor, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall
any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise
thereof or the exercise of any other right. The rights of Lessor hereunder shall
be in addition to all other rights provided by law. No modification or waiver of
any provision of this Guaranty, nor consent to departure therefrom, shall be
effective unless in writing and no such consent or waiver shall extend beyond
the particular case and purpose involved. No notice or demand given in any case
shall constitute a waiver of the right to take other action in the same, similar
or other instances without such notice or demand.

hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any court of competent
jurisdiction located in the state in which the Leased Property is located in
connection with any proceeding out of or relating to this Guaranty.
5.4 Invalid Provisions. If any provision of this Guaranty is held to be
illegal, invalid, or unenforceable under present or future laws effective during
the term of this Guaranty, such provision shall be fully severable and this
Guaranty shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or
unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of this Guaranty, and the
remaining provisions of this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and
shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by
its severance from this Guaranty, unless such continued effectiveness of this
Guaranty, as modified, would be contrary to the basic understandings and

duties or obligations hereunder.
5.7 Headings. Section headings are for convenience of reference only

hereof, form a basis for this Guaranty and shall be considered prima facie

as may be convenient or required. It shall not be necessary that the signature
or acknowledgment of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all
persons required to bind any party, or the acknowledgment of such party, appear
on each counterpart. All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single
instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Guaranty to
produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective
signatures of, or on behalf of, and the respective acknowledgments of, each of
the parties hereto. Any signature or acknowledgment page to any counterpart may
be detached from such counterpart without impairing the legal effect of the
signatures or acknowledgments thereon and thereafter attached to another
counterpart identical thereto except having attached to it additional signature
or acknowledgment pages.
5.10 Rights and Remedies. The rights of Lessor hereunder shall be
cumulative of any and all other rights that Lessor may ever have against
Guarantor. The exercise by Lessor of any right or remedy hereunder or under any
other instrument, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or
subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy.
5.11 ENTIRETY. THIS GUARANTY EMBODIES THE FINAL, ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF
GUARANTOR AND LESSOR WITH RESPECT TO GUARANTOR'S GUARANTY OF THE GUARANTEED
OBLIGATIONS AND SUPERSEDES ANY AND ALL PRIOR COMMITMENTS, AGREEMENTS,
