C. The Guarantors are willing to execute this Guaranty in favor of Lender and hereby agree to

A G R E E M E N T:
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, and intending to be legally bound hereby,
each Guarantor, severally and jointly with the other Guarantor, agrees and covenants with Lender as
follows:
1. Definitions. Capitalized terms not defined in this Guaranty shall have the
respective meanings given to such terms in the Note.
2. Guaranty and Surety. Each Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally
guarantees, and becomes surety for, the full, timely and complete payment when due, whether by
lapse of time, by acceleration of payment, or otherwise, of (a) all indebtedness, liabilities and
obligations of Borrowers to Lender, whether now existing or hereinafter arising, under the Note and
the other Loan Documents, (b) all costs reasonably incurred by Lender to obtain, preserve, perfect
and enforce the security interests granted by this Agreement and to maintain, preserve and collect
any collateral, and all taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, repairs, reasonable attorneys fees
and legal expenses, rent, storage charges, advertising costs, brokerage fees and expenses of sale
related thereto, and (c) all renewals, extensions, modifications and substitutions of all or any
part of the indebtedness and obligations described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b)
(collectively, the Guaranteed Obligations). Each Guarantors obligation under this Guaranty is
unconditional, absolute and enforceable, irrespective of (a) the validity or enforceability of the
Guaranteed Obligations in whole or in part or of the Note and the other Loan Documents or any
provision thereof, (b) whether recovery against Borrowers with respect to the Guaranteed
Obligations in whole or in part is prevented by bankruptcy, the operation of
1
law, or otherwise, and (c) any other circumstance that might otherwise cause a legal or equitable
discharge or defense of Guarantors.
3. Subsequent Acts by Lender. Lender may, in its sole discretion and without notice,
take or refrain from taking any action that might otherwise be deemed a legal or equitable release
or discharge of Guarantors obligations under this Guaranty, without either impairing or affecting
the joint and several liability of Guarantors for the full, timely and complete payment of the
Guaranteed Obligations, which actions might include, by way of illustration and not limitation:
(a) the renewal or extension of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any payments
thereunder, or the acceleration or change of time for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations,
any increase in the principal amount of any promissory note or other instrument comprising a
part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and/or any additional funds advanced under the
Guaranteed Obligations;
(b) the modification, amendment or change in any of the terms relating to any
promissory note or other agreement, document or instrument now or hereafter executed by any
Borrower in favor of Lender, including, without limitation, the Note and the other Loan
Documents;
(c) the absence of any attempt to collect the Guaranteed Obligations from Borrowers or
any other person or entity primarily or secondarily liable for the Guaranteed Obligations or
any other action to enforce Lenders rights with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations;
(d) the waiver, consent, or delay in enforcement by Lender with respect to any
provision of any instrument evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations;
(e) any failure by Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security
interest in, or to preserve its rights to, any security or collateral given for the
Guaranteed Obligations, or the release or compromise of any lien or security held by Lender
as security for the Guaranteed Obligations;
(f) the compounding, rearrangement or consolidation by Lender of all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations;
(g) the release from liability of Borrowers or any other guarantor or person or entity
primarily or secondary liable for the Guaranteed Obligations who may guarantee or provide
security for the Guaranteed Obligations in whole or in part; or
(h) the settlement, release, compromise or cancellation of all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations, or the acceptance of partial payment of all or any part of the
Guaranteed Obligations.

4. Expenses. Each Guarantor agrees to pay all costs and expenses, including, without
limitation, all court costs and reasonable attorneys fees paid or incurred by Lender in
endeavoring to collect all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or in enforcing or pursuing
Lenders remedies with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations.
5. Payment by Guarantor. In the event of any failure to pay with respect to the
Guaranteed Obligations or any default or event of default under the Note or any Loan Document
(the terms default and event of default having the respective meanings given to such terms in
the Note and the other Loan Documents), each Guarantor agrees to pay on demand, all of the
Guaranteed Obligations and all other costs, expenses and other amounts payable under this Guaranty.
Lender shall not be required to liquidate any lien or any other form of security, instrument, or
note held by Lender prior to making such demand. THIS IS A GUARANTY OF PAYMENT AND NOT OF
COLLECTION, and each Guarantor specifically agrees that Lender shall not be required to assert any
claim, file suit, or proceed to obtain a judgment against Borrowers or any other guarantor,
endorser or surety for the Guaranteed Obligations, or make any effort at collection of the
Guaranteed Obligations, or foreclose against or seek to realize upon any security or collateral now
or hereafter existing for the Guaranteed Obligations, or exercise or assert any other right or
remedy to which Lender is or may be entitled in connection with the Guaranteed Obligations, before
or as a condition of enforcing the liability of Guarantors under this Guaranty or requiring payment
of the Guaranteed Obligations under this Guaranty. Each Guarantor agrees, to the full extent it
may legally do so, that suit may be brought against such Guarantor with or without making Borrowers
or any other person or entity a party to such suit, as Lender may elect. Each Guarantor agrees
that such Guarantor shall remain fully liable under this Guaranty regardless of whether any
Borrower is held to be not liable on the Guaranteed Obligations and regardless of whether all or
any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations are non-recourse or limited recourse to Borrowers.
6. Application of Payments. Lender shall have the exclusive right to determine the
time and manner of application of any payments or credits to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether
received from Borrowers or any other source, and such determination shall be binding on Guarantors.
All such payments and credits may be applied, reversed and reapplied, in whole or in part, to any
of the Guaranteed Obligations as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion without affecting
the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty.
7. Guarantors Responsibilities. Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for
keeping itself informed of the financial condition of Borrowers, and any and all endorsers and/or
other guarantors of any instrument or document evidencing all or any part of the Guaranteed
Obligations and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed
Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that Lender shall have no duty to advise such Guarantor
of any information known to Lender regarding such condition or such circumstances or to undertake
any investigation. If Lender, in its sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time
to provide any information to any Guarantor, Lender shall be under no obligation to update any such
information or to provide any such information to Guarantors on any subsequent occasion.
