Section 4.
Waiver

subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against
BLFC or any other Person or entity or any collateral or that BLFC
or any other Person or entity be joined in any action hereunder,

under this Guaranty or for the collection or performance of the
Guaranty Obligations, (d) any defense arising by reason of any

of the Guaranty Obligations except to the extent that any error or
omission is caused by such guaranteed party’s bad faith,
gross negligence or willful misconduct, (f) any rights to
set-offs and counterclaims and (g) any defense based upon an
election of remedies which destroys or impairs the subrogation
rights of the Guarantor or the right of the Guarantor to proceed
against BLFC or any other obligor of the Guaranty Obligations for
reimbursement. All dealings between BLFC or the Guarantor, on
the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the
other hand, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been
had or consummated in reliance upon this Guaranty. Should the
Administrative Agent seek to enforce the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder by action in any court, the Guarantor waives
any necessity, substantive or procedural, that a judgment
previously be rendered against BLFC or any other Person, or that
any action be brought against BLFC or any other Person, or that
BLFC or any other Person should be joined in such cause. Such
waiver shall be without prejudice to the Administrative Agent at
its option to proceed against BLFC or any other Person, whether by
separate action or by joinder. The Guarantor further
expressly waives each and every right to which it may be entitled
by virtue of the suretyship law of the State of New York or any
other applicable jurisdiction.

the Guarantor hereunder are separate and apart from BLFC or any
other Person (other than the Guarantor), and are primary
obligations concerning which the Guarantor is the principal
obligor. The Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty is a
continuing guaranty and that it shall not be discharged except by
payment in full of the Guaranty Obligations, termination of the
Commitments and complete performance of the obligations of the
Guarantor hereunder. The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder
shall not be affected in any way by the release or discharge of
BLFC from the performance of any of the Guaranty Obligations,
whether occurring by reason of law or any other cause, whether
similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.
4
Section 6.
Subrogation
Rights . If any amount shall
be paid to the Guarantor on account of subrogation rights at any
time when all the Guaranty Obligations shall not have been paid in
full, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the
Administrative Agent and shall forthwith be paid to the
Administrative Agent to be applied to the Guaranty Obligations as
specified in the Loan Documents. If (a) the Guarantor
makes a payment to the Administrative Agent of all or any part of
the Guaranty Obligations and (b) all the Guaranty Obligations
have been paid in full and the Commitments have terminated, the
Administrative Agent will, at the Guarantor’s request,
execute and deliver to the Guarantor appropriate documents, without
recourse and without representation or warranty of any kind
whatsoever, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to
the Guarantor of any interest in the Guaranty Obligations resulting
from such payment by the Guarantor. The Guarantor hereby
agrees that it shall have no rights of subrogation, reimbursement,
exoneration, contribution or indemnification or any right to
participate in any claim or remedy of the Administrative Agent or
any Lender against BLFC with respect to amounts due to the
Administrative Agent or the Lenders until such time as all
obligations of BLFC to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
have been paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated and
the Credit Agreement has been terminated.
