(h) Duty of Disclosure. Guarantor hereby waives any duty on the part of Lender to disclose to Guarantor any facts Lender may now or hereafter know about Borrower or Borrower financial condition regardless of whether Lender has reason to believe that any such facts materially increase the risk beyond that which Guarantor intends to assume, or has reason to believe that such facts are unknown to Guarantor, or has a reasonable opportunity to communicate such facts to Guarantor.

7. Information. Guarantor hereby represents that Guarantor is fully aware of the financial condition and operation of Borrower and is in a position by virtue of its relationship to Borrower to obtain all necessary financial and operational information concerning Borrower.

10. Effect of Borrower’s Bankruptcy. The liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall in no way be affected by: (a) the release or discharge of Borrower in any creditor proceeding, receivership, bankruptcy, or other proceeding; (b) the impairment, limitation, or modification of the liability of Borrower or the estate of Borrower, or of any remedy for the enforcement of Borrower’s liability, which may result from the operation of any present or future provision of the Bankruptcy Code or any insolvency, debtor relief statute (state or federal), or any other statute, or from the decision of any court; (c) the rejection or disaffirmance of the indebtedness, or any portion of the indebtedness, in any such proceeding; or the cessation, from any cause whatsoever, whether consensual or by operation of law, of the liability of Borrower to any beneficiary resulting from any such proceeding.

11. Claims in Bankruptcy. If Guarantor has not paid Lender the amounts owed under this Guaranty, Guarantor will file all claims against Borrower in any bankruptcy or other liquidation proceeding on any indebtedness of Borrower to the Guarantor, and will assign to Lender all rights of Guarantor on any such indebtedness. If Guarantor does not file any such claim, Lender, as attorney-in-fact for Guarantor, is authorized to do so in the name of Guarantor, or, in Lender’s discretion, to assign the claim and to file a proof of claim in the name of Lender’s nominee. In all such cases, whether in bankruptcy or otherwise, the Person or Persons authorized to pay such claim shall pay to Lender the full amount of any such claim, and, to the full extent necessary for that purpose, Guarantor assigns to Lender all of Guarantor’s rights to any such payments or distributions to which Guarantor would otherwise be entitled.
