attorneys' fees (including those relative to appellate proceedings, if any)
actually incurred by Landlord in any collection relative to the obligations

reorganization or insolvency of Corporation or any successor or assignee thereof

requested, or by overnight delivery services or by facsimile to the first above
stated address(es) of Guarantor.

been made under and shall be governed by the Laws of the State of Florida in all
respects, including matters of construction, validity and performance.

shall operate as a waiver of any other default or of the same default or of the
same default on a future occasion. If more than one person has signed this
Guaranty, such parties are jointly and severally obligated hereunder. Further,
