As an inducement to Lender to extend or continue to extend credit and other financial accommodations to Borrower, Guarantor, for value received, does hereby unconditionally and absolutely guarantee the prompt and full payment and performance of the Guaranteed Indebtedness when due or declared to be due and at all times thereafter.

3. Character of Obligation.

(a) This is an absolute, continuing and unconditional guaranty of payment and not of collection and if at any time or from time to time there is no outstanding Guaranteed Indebtedness, the obligations of Guarantor with respect to any and all Guaranteed Indebtedness incurred thereafter shall not be affected. This Guaranty and the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder are irrevocable and, in the event of Guarantor’s death, shall be binding upon Guarantor’s estates. All of the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be conclusively presumed to have been made or acquired in acceptance hereof. Guarantor shall be liable, jointly and severally, with Borrower and any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

(b) Lender may, at its sole discretion and without impairing its rights hereunder, (i) apply any payments on the Guaranteed Indebtedness that Lender receives from Borrower or any other source other than Guarantor to that portion of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, if any, not guaranteed hereunder, and (ii) apply any proceeds it receives as a result of the foreclosure or other realization on any collateral for the Guaranteed Indebtedness to that portion, if any, of the Guaranteed Indebtedness not guaranteed hereunder or to any other indebtedness secured by such collateral.

(c) Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be released, diminished, impaired, reduced or affected by the existence of any other guaranty or the payment by any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness and, in the event Paragraph 2 above partially limits Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall continue until Lender has received payment in full of the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

(d) Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall not be released, diminished, impaired, reduced or affected by, nor shall any provision contained herein be deemed to be a limitation upon, the amount of credit which Lender may extend to Borrower, the number of transactions between Lender and Borrower, payments by Borrower to Lender or Lender’s allocation of payments by Borrower.

(e) Without further authorization from or notice to Guarantor, Lender may compromise, accelerate, or otherwise alter the time or manner for the payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, increase or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or release or add any one or more guarantors or endorsers, or allow substitution of or withdrawal of collateral or other security and release collateral and other security or subordinate the same.

(e) In addition to any other waivers, agreements and covenants of Guarantor set forth herein, Guarantor hereby further waives and releases all claims, causes of action, defenses and offsets for any act or omission of Lender, its directors, officers, employees, representative or agents in connection with Lender’s administration of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, except for Lender’s willful misconduct and gross negligence.

8. Obligations Not Impaired.

(a) Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder shall not be released, diminished, impaired, reduced or affected by the occurrence of any one or more of the following events: (i) the death, disability or lack of corporate power of Borrower, Guarantor (except as provided in Paragraph 10 herein) or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, (ii) any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy or other proceedings affecting Borrower, Guarantor or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any of their respective property; (iii) the partial or total release or discharge of Borrower or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or any other person or entity from the performance of any obligation contained in any instrument or agreement evidencing, governing or securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, whether occurring by reason of law or otherwise; (iv) the taking or accepting of any collateral for all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or this Guaranty; (v) the taking or accepting of any other guaranty for all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness; (vi) any failure by Lender to acquire, perfect or continue any lien or security interest on collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or this Guaranty; (vii) the impairment of any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or this Guaranty; (viii) any failure by Lender to sell any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or this Guaranty in a commercially reasonable manner or as otherwise required by law; (ix) any invalidity or unenforceability of or

defect or deficiency in any of the Loan Documents; or (x) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or discharge of, Borrower or any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

(b) This Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of Borrower, Guarantor, any other guarantor of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

(c) In the event Borrower is a corporation, joint stock association or partnership, or is hereafter incorporated, none of the following shall affect Guarantor’s liability hereunder: (i) the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness against Borrower by reason of the fact that the Guaranteed Indebtedness exceeds the amount permitted by law; (ii) the act of creating all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness is ultra vires; or (iii) the officers or partners creating all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness acted in excess of their authority. Guarantor hereby acknowledges that withdrawal from, or termination of, any ownership interest in Borrower now or hereafter owned or held by Guarantor shall not alter, affect or in any way limit the obligations of Guarantor hereunder.

9. Actions Against Guarantor. In the event of a default in the payment or performance of all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness when such Guaranteed Indebtedness becomes due, whether by its terms, by acceleration or otherwise, Guarantor shall, without notice or demand, promptly pay the amount due thereon to Lender, in lawful money of the United States, at Lender’s address set forth in Subparagraph 1(a) above. One or more successive or concurrent actions may be brought against Guarantor, either in the same action in which Borrower is sued or in separate actions, as often as Lender deems advisable. The exercise by Lender of any right or remedy under this Guaranty or under any other agreement or instrument, at law, in equity or otherwise, shall not preclude concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy. The books and records of Lender shall be admissible as evidence in any action or proceeding involving this Guaranty and shall be prima facie evidence of the payments made on, and the outstanding balance of, the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

10. Payment by Guarantor. Whenever Guarantor pays any sum which is or may become due under this Guaranty, written notice must be delivered to Lender contemporaneously with such payment. Such notice shall be effective for purposes of this paragraph when contemporaneously with such payment Lender receives such notice either by: (a) personal delivery to the address and designated department of Lender identified in Subparagraph 1(a) above, or (b) United States mail, certified or registered, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to Lender at the address shown in Subparagraph 1(a) above. In the absence of such notice to Lender by Guarantor in compliance with the provisions hereof, any sum received by Lender on account of the Guaranteed Indebtedness shall be conclusively deemed paid by Borrower.

11. Death of Guarantor. In the event of the death of Guarantor, the obligations of the deceased Guarantor under this Guaranty shall continue as an obligation against his estate as to (a) all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness that is outstanding on the date of the Guarantor’s death, and any renewals or extension thereof, and (b) all loans, advances and other extensions of credit

made to or for the account of Borrower on or after the date of Guarantor’s death pursuant to an obligation of Lender under a commitment or agreement described in Subparagraph 1(d) above and made to or with Borrower prior to the date of Guarantor’s death. The terms and conditions of this Guaranty, including without limitation the consents and waivers set forth in Paragraph 7 hereof, shall remain in effect with respect to the Guaranteed Indebtedness described in the preceding sentence in the same manner as if Guarantor had not died.

12. Notice of Sale. In the event that Guarantor is entitled to receive any notice under the Uniform Commercial Code, as it exists in the state governing any such notice, of the sale or other disposition of any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness or this Guaranty, reasonable notice shall be deemed given when such notice is deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, at the address for Guarantor set forth in Subparagraph 1(c) above, ten (10) days prior to the date any public sale, or after which any private sale, of any such collateral is to be held; provided, however, that notice given in any other reasonable manner or at any other reasonable time shall be sufficient.

13. Waiver by Lender. No delay on the part of Lender in exercising any right hereunder or failure to exercise the same shall operate as a waiver of such right. In no event shall any waiver of the provisions of this Guaranty be effective unless the same be in writing and signed by an officer of Lender, and then only in the specific instance and for the purpose given.

14. Successors and Assigns. This Guaranty is for the benefit of Lender, it successors and assigns. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and Guarantor’s heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives and successors, including without limitation any person or entity obligated by operation of law upon the reorganization, merger, consolidation or other change in the organizational structure of Guarantor.

15. Costs and Expenses. Guarantor shall pay on demand by Lender all costs and expenses, including without limitation all reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by Lender in connection with the preparation, administration, enforcement and/or collection of this Guaranty. This covenant shall survive the payment of the Guaranteed Indebtedness.

16. Severability. If any provision of this Guaranty is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under present or future laws, such provision shall be fully severable, shall not impair or invalidate the remainder of this Guaranty and the effect thereof shall be confined to the provision held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable.

17. No Obligation. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as an obligation on the part of Lender to extend or continue to extend credit to Borrower.

18. Amendment. No modification or amendment of any provision of this Guaranty, nor consent to any departure by Guarantor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by an officer of Lender, and then shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

19. Cumulative Rights. All rights and remedies of Lender hereunder are cumulative of each other and every other right or remedy which Lender may otherwise have at law or in equity or under any instrument or agreement, and the exercise of one or more of such rights or remedies shall not prejudice or impair the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other rights

or remedies. This Guaranty, whether general, specific and/or limited, shall be in addition to and cumulative of, and not in substitution, novation or discharge of, any and all prior or contemporaneous guaranty agreements by Guarantor in favor of Lender or assigned to Lender by others.

20. Governing Law, Venue. This Guaranty is intended to be performed in the State of Texas. Except to the extent that the laws of the United States may apply to the terms hereof, the substantive laws of the State of Texas shall govern the validity, construction, enforcement and interpretation of this Guaranty. In the event of a dispute involving this Guaranty or any other instruments executed in connection herewith, the undersigned irrevocably agrees that venue for such dispute shall lie in any court of competent jurisdiction in Travis County, Texas.

21. Compliance with Applicable Usury Laws. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty or of any instrument or agreement evidencing, governing or securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Indebtedness, Guarantor and Lender by its acceptance hereof agree that Guarantor shall never be required or obligated to pay interest in excess of the maximum non-usurious interest rate as may be authorized by applicable law for the written contracts which constitute the Guaranteed Indebtedness. It is the intention of Guarantor and Lender to confirm strictly to the applicable laws which limit interest rates, and any of the aforesaid contracts for interest, if and to the extent payable by Guarantor, shall be held to be subject to reduction to the maximum non-usurious interest rate allowed under said law.

22. Gender. Within this Guaranty, words of any gender shall be held and construed to include the other gender.

23. Captions. The headings in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall not define or limit the provisions hereof.

24. Right of Revocation. Guarantor understands and agrees that Guarantor may revoke this Guaranty at any time with respect to indebtedness or obligations of Borrower incurred after the effective date of the revocation by giving Lender written notice that Guarantor will not be liable hereunder for any indebtedness or obligations of Borrower incurred on or after the effective date of such revocation. Such revocation shall be deemed to be effective on the 5th day following written acknowledgement by an officer of the Lender that the Lender received written notice of revocation delivered either by: (a) personal delivery to the address and designated department of Lender identified in Subparagraph 1(a) above, or (b) United States mail, registered or certified, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed to Lender at the address shown in Subparagraph 1(a) above. Notwithstanding such revocation, Guarantor shall remain liable on its obligations hereunder until payment in full to Lender of (a) all of the Guaranteed Indebtedness that is outstanding on the effective date of such revocation, and any renewals and extensions thereof, including interest thereon and fees and expenses related thereto, that have accrued or been incurred after the effective date of such revocation, and (b) all loans, advances and other extensions of credit made to or for the account of Borrower on or after the effective date of such revocation pursuant to the obligation of Lender under a commitment or agreement made to or with Borrower prior to the effective date of such revocation. The terms and conditions of this Guaranty, including without limitation the consents and waivers set forth in Paragraph 7 hereof, shall remain in effect with respect to the Guaranteed Indebtedness described in the preceding sentence in the same manner as if such revocation had not been made by Guarantor.
