5. Demand by the Band: Performance by Guarantor. In the event of a Guaranty
Event of Default, the Band may make demand upon the Guarantor(s), or any one of
them, for the payment or performance of the Guarantied Obligation, and each
Guarantor binds and obliges it to make such payment or performance and to pay
any related damages forthwith upon such demand. Each Guarantor further covenants
and agrees that Band may upon a Guaranty Event of Default proceed first and
directly against the Guarantor, without any action, proceeding or suit, whether
against Great Lakes or against any security for the Guarantied Obligations
(hereby intending, among other matters, to waive any defense to this Guaranty
based on impairment of collateral), or any other party liable for the Guarantied
Obligations. This Guaranty Agreement is not conditioned upon the genuineness,
validity, or enforceability of the Third Amended and Restated Agreements, the
Lakes Notes and all documents related thereto, arising thereunder or executed in
connection therewith (collectively, the "Transaction Documents") or any other
instruments relating to the creation or performance of the Guarantied
Obligations, or the pursuit by the Band of any remedies which the Band has now
or may hereafter have with respect thereto under the Transaction Documents.

"Guaranty Event of Default" means (a) either (i) a Lakes Event of Default under
the Development Agreement, (ii) a Manager Event of Default under the Management
Agreement, or (iii) any other default or breach by Great Lakes under the
Guaranteed Obligations; in each case after all cure periods have expired and
either the time within which arbitration may be demanded has expired or, if
arbitration has been timely demanded, the arbitrator has issued his award and
the award determines that Great Lakes is in default or breach under a Guaranteed
Obligation; or (b) the receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the
benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment
of, or any similar proceeding affecting Great Lakes or any Guarantor or any of
its or their assets.

6. Waiver of Demands. Notices, Diligence, etc. Each Guarantor hereby assents to
all the terms and conditions of the Guarantied Obligations and the related
Transaction Documents and waives (a) demand for the payment or performance of
any Guarantied Obligation (other than a demand under Section 5 hereof); (b)
notice of the occurrence of a default or an Event of Default under the
Transaction Documents; (c) notice of acceptance of any guaranty herein provided
for or of the terms and provisions thereof or hereof by the Band; (d) notice of
any indulgences or extensions granted to Great Lakes or any successor to Great
Lakes or any person or party which shall have assumed the obligations of Great
Lakes or any other obligor in respect of any Guarantied Obligation; (e) any
requirement of diligence or promptness on the part of the Band in the
enforcement of any of its rights under the provisions of any Guarantied
Obligation or the Transaction Documents; (f) any enforcement of any Guarantied
Obligation against any other party liable therefor; (g) any right which the
Guarantor might have to require the Band to proceed against any other guarantor
of the Guarantied Obligations or to realize on any collateral security therefor;
(h) any and all notices of every kind and description which may be required to
be given by any statute or rule of law in any jurisdiction (other than notices
required hereunder), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law; (i) any
and all claims, defenses or objections based upon the failure of the Band to
make demand upon the Guarantor for the payment or performance of any of the
Guarantied Obligations (other than the demand provided for in Section 5 hereof)
under applicable law; and (j) any right to exoneration or marshaling, and, to
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any defense based upon or
arising from the Statute of Limitations, and other laws relating to stays of
action or moratorium. Each Guarantor further

hereby waives (solely as against Band) any right to contribution from co
guarantors as well as any right to exoneration, subrogation or reimbursement
until all Guarantied Obligations are fully and indefeasibly paid or performed
and until the expiration of any applicable preference periods. The Band and
Great Lakes (or any other party to a Guaranteed Obligation) may modify, renew,
waive or extend any Guaranteed Obl
