(c) agrees with the Beneficiary that if any Guaranteed Obligation is or becomes irrecoverable, unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify the Beneficiary immediately on demand against any cost, expense, loss or liability it incurs as a result of the Parent Guarantor or the Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such irrecoverability, unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under the Promissory Note on the date when it would have been due. The amount of the cost, expense, loss or liability shall be equal to the amount which the Beneficiary would otherwise have been entitled to recover.

2.2 Continuing guarantee

This guarantee is a continuing obligation and will extend to the ultimate unpaid balance of sums payable by the Obligor under the Promissory Note, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in part.

2.4 Waiver of defences

The obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this clause 2 (Guarantee ) will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this clause 2 (Guarantee ) (without limitation and whether or not known to it or the Beneficiary) including:

(a) any time, waiver or other concession or consent granted to, or composition with, the Obligor or other person;

(b) any composition or arrangement with any creditor of the Obligor or other person;

The Parent Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring the Beneficiary (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or claim payment from any person before claiming from the Parent Guarantor under this clause 2 (Guarantee ). This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of the Promissory Note to the contrary.

2.6 Deferral of Parent Guarantor’s rights

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligor under or in connection with the Promissory Note have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Beneficiary otherwise directs, the Parent Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Promissory Note or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this clause 2 (Guarantee ):

(e) to claim or prove as a creditor of the Obligor in competition with the Beneficiary; and/or

(f) in any form of administration of the Obligor (including liquidation) prove for or claim, or exercise any vote or other rights in respect of, any indebtedness of any nature owed to it by the Obligor.
