(a) Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes and guarantees, for the benefit of Lender and each and every present and future holder or holders of the Note or assignee of assignees of the Loan Documents, that in the event Seller commences construction of a New Building (either the New Construction or the Vacant Building Reconstruction, as such terms are defined in the Construction Management Agreement) and the Seller defaults on its obligations to complete the construction of the subject New Building in accordance with the terms of the Construction Management Agreement, then all obligations of Seller to construct the applicable New Building in accordance with the plans and specifications approved by Borrower in writing in accordance with the Construction Management Agreement (the “Plans and Specifications”) and to complete the Work (as such term is defined in the Construction Management Agreement) (all of the foregoing collectively, the “Construction Obligations”) shall be performed in accordance with the applicable Plans and Specifications and the terms and conditions contained in the Construction Management Agreement. Guarantor shall cause the Construction Obligations to be performed and completed and paid for in the manner and at the applicable times required to be so performed, completed and paid for by Seller under the Construction Management Agreement, the applicable Plans and Specifications, all Work for the subject New Building and Applicable Law and in no event later than one hundred eighty (180) days

after the Earnout Period, except if extended for any Force Majeure Delay in accordance with the terms of Section 24 of the Construction Management Agreement, to the extent that Seller fails to do so at any and all applicable times.

(b) Upon the occurrence of any default by Seller under the Construction Management Agreement with respect to the Construction Obligations following the expiration of any applicable notice and cure periods afforded Seller, or if Borrower elects to terminate the Construction Management Agreement for any of the grounds as provided in the second paragraph of Section 6 of the Construction Management Agreement, Guarantor agrees within seven (7) Business Days after written demand by the Lender (“Demand Notice”) to commence, or cause to be commenced, performance of the Construction Obligations and to diligently pursue performance thereof to New Building Completion (as hereinafter defined). Guarantor shall indemnify, defend and hold Lender harmless from and against any and all loss, damage, cost, expense, injury or liability Lender may suffer or incur in connection with third party claims brought as a result of Guarantor’s performance of the Construction Obligations. If Guarantor fails to commence and pursue diligently the performance of the Construction Obligations within seven (7) Business Days after its receipt of a Demand Notice, then either before or after pursuing any other remedy of Lender against Guarantor or Borrower, and regardless of whether Lender shall ever pursue any such other remedy, Lender shall have the right to complete the Construction Obligations or call upon any other reputable parties to complete the Construction Obligations, and shall have the right to expend such sums as Lender in its discretion deems proper in order so to complete the Construction Obligations. During the course of any construction undertaken by Lender or by any other party on behalf of Lender, Guarantor shall pay on demand any amounts due to any contractor party and other material suppliers and for permits and licenses necessary to complete the Construction Obligations. Lender at any time may require Guarantor to perform or supervise the performance of such work in lieu of Lender or any party engaged by Lender. Guarantor’s Obligations in connection with such work shall not be affected by any errors or omissions of Seller, Borrower, any contractor party, the architect or any agent or employee of the architect or any contractor party in design, supervision or performance of the Work, it being understood that such risk is assumed by Guarantor. Upon New Building Completion, Guarantor shall be released from the Construction Obligations; provided, however, that New Building Completion shall not relieve Guarantor of any of the other liabilities under this Guaranty, including without limitation, the Payment Obligations, the Recourse Obligations and the Seller Earnout Obligations.

(c) “New Building Completion” means the completion of the applicable New Building in accordance with the Plans and Specifications for the subject New Building and the completion of the Work for such New Building, free of all liens and claims from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen and in accordance with Applicable Law, as evidenced by Lender’s receipt of: (i) a final and unconditional Certificate of Occupancy issued by the City of West Bend, Wisconsin for the New Building, (ii) a current as-built ALTA Survey of the Premises plotting the applicable New Building certified to Lender and its successors and/or assigns and containing the Survey requirements as required under the Survey definition contained in Exhibit A of the Loan Agreement, (iii) copies of the final as built Plans and Specifications and any construction warranties for the New Building if obtained by Borrower or Guarantor for the applicable New Building; and (iv) title date-down and interim mechanics’ lien endorsements to the Title Policy, insuring the continuing validity and priority of the Mortgage for the full amount of the Loan theretofore disbursed, excepting only such items as otherwise permitted under the Loan Agreement, and insuring over mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens arising (or which may arise) from work performed and materials supplied in connection with the construction of the New Building prior to the date of receipt of the items described in clauses (i), (ii) (iii) and (iv) of this definition.

(d) Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees that its guaranty of the Construction Obligations pursuant to this Paragraph 4 is enforceable by Lender as and when provided in this Paragraph 4 irrespective of any cure period afforded to Borrower under Section 5.15 of the Loan Agreement to complete construction of any New Building following Seller’s default.

5. Representations and Warranties. The following shall constitute representations and warranties of Guarantor, and Guarantor hereby acknowledges that Lender intends to make the Loan in reliance thereon:

(a) The Guarantor is not in default, and no event has occurred which, with the passage of time and/or the giving of notice, would constitute a default, under any agreement to which Guarantor is a party (beyond applicable notice and/or cure periods), the effect of which will impair performance by Guarantor of its obligations under this Guaranty. Neither the execution and delivery of this Guaranty nor compliance with the terms and provisions hereof will violate any applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, decree or order, or will conflict with or result in any breach of any of the terms, covenants, conditions or provisions of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, instrument, document, agreement or contract of any kind that creates, represents, evidences or provides for any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of Guarantor, or any other indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, instrument, document, agreement or contract of any kind to which Guarantor is a party or to which Guarantor or the property of Guarantor may be subject.
