(i) any insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, receivership, conservatorship, winding up or other similar proceeding involving or affecting any Borrower, the Collateral or any part thereof, Guarantor or any other Person;

(ii) any failure by Administrative Agent or any other Person, whether or not without fault on its part, to perform or comply with any of the terms of the Loan Agreement, or any other Loan Documents, or any document or instrument relating thereto;

(iv) the termination or discharge of any Security Instrument, the exercise of any power of sale or any foreclosure or the conveyance to Administrative Agent, any Affiliate of Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party of the Collateral or any interest therein by a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure;

(v) the release of any Borrower or any other Person from the performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of the Loan Documents by operation of law or otherwise;

(vi) the release in whole or in part of any collateral for any or all Guaranteed Obligations or for the Loan or any portion thereof;

(c) Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Guaranty, Guarantor hereby expressly and irrevocably waives all defenses in an action brought by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to enforce this Guaranty based on claims of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise and all setoffs, reductions, or impairments, whether arising hereunder or otherwise.

(d) Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may deal with any Borrower and Affiliates of any Borrower in the same manner and as freely as if this Guaranty did not exist and shall be entitled, among other things, to grant any Borrower or any other Person such extension or extensions of time to perform any act or acts as may be deemed advisable by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, at any time and from time to time, without terminating, affecting or impairing the validity of this Guaranty or the obligations of Guarantor hereunder.

(e) No compromise, alteration, amendment, modification, extension, renewal, release or other change of, or waiver, consent, delay, omission, failure to act or other action with respect to, any liability or obligation under or with respect to, or of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of, the Loan Documents shall in any way alter, impair or affect any of the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, and Guarantor agrees that if any Loan Document is modified with Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party’s consent, the Guaranteed Obligations shall automatically be deemed modified to include such modifications.

(f) Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party may proceed to protect and enforce any or all of its rights under this Guaranty by suit in equity or action at law, whether for the specific performance of any covenants or agreements contained in this Guaranty or otherwise, or to take any action authorized or permitted under applicable law, and shall be entitled to require and enforce the performance of all acts and things required to be performed hereunder by Guarantor. Each and every remedy of Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and shall be in addition to any other remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.

(g) No waiver shall be deemed to have been made by Administrative Agent of any rights hereunder unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Administrative Agent, and any such waiver shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific matter involved and shall in no way impair the rights of Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party or the obligations of Guarantor to Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in any other respect or at any other time.

(h) At the option of Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party, Guarantor may be joined in any action or proceeding commenced by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party against any Borrower in connection with or based upon any other Loan Documents and recovery may be had against Guarantor in such action or proceeding or in any independent action or proceeding against Guarantor to the extent of Guarantor’s liability hereunder, without any requirement that Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party first assert, prosecute or exhaust any remedy or claim against any Borrower or any other Person, or any security for the obligations of any Borrower or any other Person.

(i) Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment is made by any Borrower or Guarantor to Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party and such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party (as determined by Administrative Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) upon insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment, composition, dissolution, receivership, conservatorship, winding up or other similar proceeding involving or affecting any Borrower or Guarantor, all as though such payment had not been made.

(j) In the event that Guarantor shall advance or become obligated to pay any sums under this Guaranty or in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations or in the event that for any reason whatsoever any Borrower, any other guarantor of all or any portion of the Loan, or any subsequent owner of the Real Property or any part thereof is now, or shall hereafter become, indebted to Guarantor, Guarantor agrees that (i) the amount of such sums and of such indebtedness and all interest thereon shall at all times be subordinate as to lien, the time of payment and in all other respects to all sums, including principal and interest and other amounts, at any time owed to Administrative Agent or any other Secured Parties under the Loan Documents, and (ii) Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or receive payment thereof until all principal, interest and other sums due pursuant to the Loan Documents have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash. Nothing herein contained is intended or shall be construed to give Guarantor any right of subrogation in or under the Loan Documents or any right to participate in any way therein, or in the right, title or interest of Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in or to any collateral for the Loan, notwithstanding any payments made by Guarantor under this Guaranty, until the actual and irrevocable receipt by Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties of payment in full in cash of all principal, interest and other sums due with respect to the Loan or otherwise payable under the Loan Documents. If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time when any such sums due and owing to Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party shall not have been fully paid, such amount shall be paid by Guarantor to Administrative Agent for credit and application against such sums due and owing to Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties.

(k) Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall survive a foreclosure, deed-in-lieu of foreclosure or similar proceeding involving the Real Property and the exercise by Administrative Agent or any other Secured Parties of any or all of its remedies pursuant to the Loan Documents.
