34
|
the Indemnifying Party is not diligently prosecuting the defense of such Third Party Claim, (B) such Third Party Claim involves remedies other than monetary damages and such remedies, in the Indemnified Party's reasonable judgment, could have a Material Adverse Effect on such Indemnified Party, (C) the Indemnified Party may have available to it one or more defenses or counterclaims that are inconsistent with one or more defenses or counterclaims that may be alleged by the Indemnifying Party, or (D) the Indemnified Party believes in its reasonable discretion that a conflict of interest exists between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third‑Party Claim or action, and in any such event the reasonable fees and expenses of such separate counsel for the Indemnified Party shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party. The Indemnified Party shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its agents all records and other materials in the Indemnified Party's possession reasonably required by it for its use in contesting any Third‑Party Claim or demand. |

2. Waiver of Defenses. Guarantor agrees that the obligations, covenants and agreements of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be affected or impaired by any act of Owner, or any event or condition except full performance of the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor agrees that, without full performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, the liability of Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged, and Guarantor waives any defense based on (a) lack of authority or bankruptcy or insolvency of the Owner, Developer, Master Lessee or any other person or entity; (b) any failure of Owner to commence action against the Developer or any other person or entity, or to file or enforce a claim against the estate (either in administration, bankruptcy, or any other proceeding) of Developer or any other person or entity; (c) any election of remedies by the Owner or any other person or entity which destroys or otherwise impairs any subrogation rights of Guarantor or the right of Guarantor to proceed against Developer, Owner or any other person or entity for reimbursement; (d) any failure on the part of the Owner to ascertain the extent or nature of the liability of any person or entity liable for the obligations of Developer under the PFDA, or any failure on the part of Owner or any other person or entity to disclose to Guarantor any material facts affecting the obligations of Developer under the PFDA; (e) any lack of acceptance or notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by Owner; (f) any lack of presentment, demand, protest, or notice of demand, protest, nonpayment or nonperformance with respect to the obligations of Developer under the PFDA; (g) any lack of due diligence by Owner in obtaining reimbursement from any person or entity now or hereafter liable for the obligations of Developer under the PFDA; (h) any deficiency in the ability of Owner to collect from any persons or entities now or hereafter liable for the obligations of Developer under the PFDA; (i) the renewal or extension of time for the payment or performance of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether made with or without the knowledge or consent of Guarantor; G) any transfer, waiver, compromise, settlement, surrender or release of the provisions of the PFDA (provided that the PFDA shall not be modified or amended and no Change Order will be approved by Owner without the prior written consent of Guarantor); (k) the existence of any defenses to enforcement of the provisions of the PFDA other than mandatory counter-claims; (1) the existence of any set-off, claim, reduction or diminution of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any defense of any kind or nature, which Guarantor may have against Developer, Owner or any other person or entity or which any party has against Owner; (m) the addition of any and all other indorsers, guarantors, obligors and other persons liable for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations and the acceptance of any and all other security for the payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations; all whether or not Guarantor shall have had notice or knowledge or any act or omission referred to in the foregoing clauses (a) through (m) of this Paragraph.

If any of the Guaranteed Obligations are partially paid or partially performed, for whatever reason, this Guaranty shall remain in full effect, and Guarantor shall remain liable for the entire remaining unpaid or unperformed Guaranteed Obligations. |
4. Waiver of Exemptions. Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights to the benefits of any moratorium, reinstatement, marshaling, forbearance, valuation, stay, extension, redemption, appraisement, and exemption now or hereafter provided by any applicable law. |
5. Enforcement Costs.

6. Modification of Guaranty. This Guaranty may not be changed orally and no obligation of Guarantor can be released or waived by Owner except by a writing signed by the Owner. This Guaranty shall be irrevocable by Guarantor until all Guaranteed Obligations have been completely satisfied. This Guaranty shall be reinstated if any payment received Owner from Guarantor is returned or rescinded due to any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or other relief of debtors or for any other reason. |
7. Subrogation. Until all of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereunder have been satisfied and discharged in full, (a) Guarantor shall not exercise its right of subrogation and (b) Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy which it now has or may hereafter have against Lessee, any other guarantor or any other party to any of the Transaction Documents, or any other documents entered into in connection therewith, and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or other assets now or hereafter held by Owner with respect to the Master Lease, the other Transaction Documents or any other document or instrument entered into in connection therewith. |
8. Binding Effect; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Guaranty shall bind and inure to the benefit of Owner and its successors and assigns, and Owner's successors and permitted assigns
4
|
shall be entitled to enforce performance and observance of this Guaranty to the same extent Owner is entitled to do so; provided, however, that (a) this Guaranty shall not inure to the benefit of any assignee pursuant to an assignment which violates the terms of this Guaranty; and (b) this Guaranty shall not be deemed to confer any rights or remedies contained in this Guaranty upon any Person not a party or made subject to this Guaranty (other than Owner). |
9. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Guaranty and the obligations ansmg hereunder shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed in such State, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives any claim to assert that the law of any other jurisdiction governs this Guaranty. Any legal suit, action or proceeding against Guarantor or Owner arising out of or relating to this Guaranty shall be instituted in any federal or state court in the State of Alabama, and Guarantor waives any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding and hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of any such court in any suit, action or proceeding. |
