C.    The Guarantor is the owner of a direct partnership interest in Borrower, and the Guarantor will directly benefit from the Lenders’ making the Loans and other financial accommodations to Borrower.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, as an inducement to the Lenders to make the Loans and other financial accommodations to Borrower, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor agrees as follows:

Section 1. Guaranty of Obligations. The Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, the payment and performance of the Obligations (the “Guaranteed Obligations”) as and when the same shall be due and payable, whether by lapse of time, by acceleration of maturity or otherwise. The Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally covenants and agrees that it is liable for the Guaranteed Obligations as a primary obligor, and that the Guarantor shall fully perform each and every term and provision hereof. This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection only. Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be required to exhaust any right or remedy or take any action against Borrower or any other person or entity. The Guarantor agrees that, as between the Guarantor and Administrative Agent and the Lenders, the Guaranteed Obligations may be declared to be due and payable for the purposes of this Guaranty notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition which may prevent, delay or vitiate any declaration as regards Borrower and that in the event of a declaration or attempted

DB3/ 204702722.2

declaration, the Guaranteed Obligations shall immediately become due and payable by the Guarantor for the purposes of this Guaranty.

Section 2. Guaranty Absolute. The Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. The liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty is absolute, irrevocable and unconditional irrespective of: (a) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any of the terms of any Loan Document, including any increase or decrease in the rate of interest thereon; (b) any release or amendment or waiver of, or consent to departure from, or failure to act by Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to, or any impairment of any Lien on, any other guaranty or support document, or any exchange, release or non-perfection of, or failure to act by Administrative Agent or the Lenders with respect to, any collateral, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (c) any present or future law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction (whether of right or in fact) or of any agency thereof purporting to reduce, amend, restructure or otherwise affect any term of the Guaranteed Obligations or any Loan Document; (d) any change in the corporate or other legal existence, structure, or ownership of Borrower; (e) without being limited by the foregoing, any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document; and (f) any other setoff, recoupment, defense or counterclaim whatsoever (in any case, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory) with respect to the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby which might constitute a legal or equitable defense available to, or discharge of, Borrower or a guarantor, other than the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made).

Section 3. Guaranty Irrevocable. This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty of the payment of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until this Guaranty is terminated pursuant to Section 17 hereof.

Section 4. Waiver of Certain Rights and Notices. To the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law, except as specifically provided herein, the Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of (a) any right to require Administrative Agent or any Lender to proceed against or exhaust its recourse against Borrower, any other guarantor or endorser, or any security or collateral held by Administrative Agent (for the benefit of Lenders) at any time or to pursue any other remedy in its power before proceeding against the Guarantor hereunder; (b) the defense of the statute of limitations in any action hereunder; (c) any defense that may arise by reason of (i) the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of Borrower, the Guarantor or any other or others, (ii) the revocation or repudiation hereof by the Guarantor or the revocation or repudiation of any of the Loan Documents by Borrower or any other or others, (iii) the failure of Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) to file or enforce a claim against the estate (either in administration, bankruptcy or any other proceeding) of Borrower or any other or others, (iv) the unenforceability in whole or in part of any Loan Document, (v) Administrative Agent's election (on behalf of the Lenders), in any proceeding instituted under the federal Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the federal Bankruptcy Code, or (vi) any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the federal Bankruptcy

2

DB3/ 204702722.2

Code; (d) presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of discharge, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, and indulgences and notices of any other kind whatsoever; (e) any defense based upon an election of remedies by Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) which destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of the Guarantor or the right of the Guarantor to proceed against Borrower for reimbursement, or both; (f) any defense based upon any taking, modification or release of any collateral or other guarantees, or any failure to perfect, or any impairment of, any Lien on, or the taking of or failure to take any other action with respect to, any collateral securing payment or performance of the GuaranteedObligations; (g) any right to require marshaling of assets and liabilities, sale in inverse order of alienation, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and of any obligations to which it applies or may apply; and (h) any rights or defenses based upon an offset by the Guarantor against any obligation now or hereafter owed to the Guarantor by Borrower; provided, however, that this Section 4 shall not constitute a waiver on the part of the Guarantor of any defense of payment. The Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder to the extent set forth herein, notwithstanding any act, omission or thing which might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of the Guarantor, until the termination of this Guaranty under Section 3.

Section 5. Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Lenders on the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower or otherwise, all as though the payment had not been made, whether or not Administrative Agent is in possession of the Guaranty.

Section 6. Subrogation. The Guarantor shall not exercise any rights which it may acquire by way of subrogation, by any payment made under this Guaranty or otherwise, until all the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full (other than indemnities and other contingent obligations not then due and payable and as to which no claim has been made) and all of the Commitments shall have expired or terminated. If any amount is paid to the Guarantor on account of subrogation rights under this Guaranty at any time when all the Guaranteed Obligations have not been paid in full, the amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lenders and shall be promptly paid to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured or absolute or contingent, in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents. If the Guarantor makes payment to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and all the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full and all of the Commitments shall have expired or terminated, Administrative Agent shall, at the Guarantor's request and expense, execute and deliver to the Guarantor appropriate documents, without recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to the Guarantor of the interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment.

Section 7. Subordination. Without limiting Administrative Agent’s rights under any other agreement, any liabilities owed by Borrower to the Guarantor in connection with any extension of credit or financial accommodation by the Guarantor to or for the account of Borrower, including but not limited to interest accruing at the agreed contract rate after the

Section 8. Certain Taxes.The Guarantor further agrees that all payments to be made hereunder shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and free and clear of, and without deduction for, any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings or restrictions or conditions of any nature whatsoever now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any country or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as provided in Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement.
