Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if the Lender determines that a Change in Law has made it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for the Lender or its Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make the Loan or to fund or maintain the Loan to be made by it hereunder, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions or there exists any condition that has the effect of making it illegal, impossible or impracticable for, or has the effect of prohibiting, restricting or materially delaying the ability of, the Lender to purchase, hold, receive, sell, freely transfer or remain the owner of any Collateral or any amount received in respect thereof, the Lender shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower, whereupon (a) until the Lender notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist, the obligation of the Lender to make the Loan shall be suspended and (b) if the Lender shall so request in such notice, the Borrower shall immediately prepay in full the then outstanding principal amount of the Loan, together with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts payable by the Borrower under this Agreement.

23

Section 2.08. Payments and Computations.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder and under the Promissory Note in U.S. Dollars, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due in freely transferable lawful money of the United States of America to the Lender to such account as the Lender shall from time to time hereafter specify by written notice to the Borrower at least five (5) Business Days prior to a payment date hereunder.

(b) The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender, if and to the extent payment owed to the Lender is not made when due hereunder or under the Promissory Note held by the Lender, to charge from time to time against any or all of the Borrower's accounts with the Lender any amount so due. The Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower following the occurrence of any such charge.

(c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Promissory Note shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day (except where such payment is explicitly required to be made on any calendar day including non-Business Days), such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of the Loan to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

Section 2.09. Taxes.

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.09, the term "applicable law" or "Applicable Law" includes FATCA.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes (other than income taxes in the jurisdiction of Lender's Lending Office). If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable withholding agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a withholding agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount and basis of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

24

(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.09, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender, by email as provided in Section 7.02, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Lender.

(f) Status of Lender. If the Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, it shall upon written reasonable request of the Borrower (but only if the Lender is lawfully able to do so) use commercially reasonable efforts to provide within a reasonable time the Borrower, documents or other certifications, appropriately completed and executed, as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if in the Lender's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject the Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the Lender.

(g) Tax Forms. The Borrower shall provide the Lender, the Collateral Agent and any other applicable withholding agent with a valid, complete IRS Form W-8BEN-E and any such other tax certifications or documentation reasonably requested by the Lender, the Collateral Agent or other applicable withholding agent (x) on or prior to the date this Agreement is entered into, (y) if any such forms, certifications or documentation previously provided by the Borrower becomes invalid or incorrect and (z) promptly upon request by the Lender, the Collateral Agent or other applicable withholding agent.

(h) Survival. Each party's obligations under this Section 2.09 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or the Collateral Agent, the termination of the Commitment and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

Section 2.10. Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lender resulting from the Loan owing to the Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to the Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of the Loan. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Lender a Promissory Note payable to the Lender in a principal amount up to the Commitment of the Lender as specified in Section 2.01.

25

(b) Entries made in good faith by the Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to subsection (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to the Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.

Section 2.11. Proceeds of the Loan. The proceeds of the Loan shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely for general corporate purposes of the Guarantor and its Affiliates including without limitation, payment of costs incurred in connection with the Business Combination and repayment of callable debt in conjunction with the Business Combination.

Section 2.12. Increased Costs and Increased Capital.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) subject the Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clause (b) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(ii) impose on the Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or the Loan made by the Lender or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining the Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make the Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, the Borrower will from time to time, upon reasonable request and reasonable prior notice by the Lender, pay to the Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of the Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate the Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Unless the Borrower repays the Loan in full within such thirty (30) day period in accordance with Section 2.12(d), the Borrower shall pay the Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

26

(c) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of the Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of the Lender's right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate the Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six (6) months prior to the date that the Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of the Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(d) Upon receipt of the certificate described in paragraph (b) above, the Borrower shall have thirty (30) days within which it may repay or prepay any outstanding Loan in whole or in part during which time the Early Termination Fee shall be waived.

(e) If the Borrower repays or prepays the Loan after the thirty (30) day period described in paragraph (d) above, the prepayment shall be accompanied by an amount equal to the Early Termination Fee.

(a) At all times prior to delivery by the Collateral Agent of a Notice of Enforcement to the Custodian, the Custodian will only act in relation to the Collateral Account and the Collateral Account Property upon receipt of the written instructions and entitlement orders (as such term is defined in the UCC) ("Orders") from the Collateral Agent concerning the Collateral Account and the Collateral Account Property which have been countersigned or otherwise approved by the Pledgor. The Custodian shall comply with such Orders, without further consent from the Pledgor or any other Person and without regard to any inconsistent or conflicting Orders given to Custodian by the Pledgor or any other Person. The Custodian shall have a reasonable period of time not to exceed two (2) business days to comply with any Order.

(b) Following delivery by the Collateral Agent of a Notice of Enforcement to the Custodian, the Collateral Agent will have the exclusive right to issue Orders concerning the Collateral Account and the Collateral Account Property and the Custodian will act on the sole instructions of the Collateral Agent alone. The Custodian shall comply with such Orders, without further consent from the Pledgor or any other Person and without regard to any inconsistent or conflicting Orders given to Custodian by the Pledgor or any other Person. The Custodian shall have a reasonable period of time not to exceed two (2) business days to comply with any Order.

The Collateral Agent shall also provide the Custodian with any information as the Custodian may require in order to make a transfer in compliance with an Order. The Pledgor and the Secured Parties understand that a transfer of financial assets by the Custodian may be delayed or not made if the transfer would cause the Custodian to violate any applicable law or regulation.

-6-

5.2 Release of Collateral Account Property

(a) For the avoidance of doubt, the Pledgor acknowledges that, as contemplated by the Loan Documents, the Collateral Agent shall provide instructions to the Custodian in respect of any administrative matters relating to the Collateral Account and in respect of any instruction given prior to an Event of Default in accordance with the Collateral release provisions set forth in Section 2.06(b)(ii) of the Credit Agreement, to deliver the relevant Collateral Account Property to the Pledgor as described in the Credit Agreement.

(b) The Custodian will be entitled to rely on any written notice (including notice by e-mail) it receives from the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent stating that a release of Collateral pursuant to Section 2.06(b)(ii) of the Credit Agreement is permitted.

5.3 Taxes

Any income or other tax payable in respect of the Collateral Account or any Collateral Account Property or on account of any dividends, distributions, interest, gain, profits, income, proceeds or other property received or accrued in respect of any Collateral Account Property or other Collateral (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any digital assets distributed in an Airdrop or resulting from a Hard Fork) will be for the account of the Pledgor. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Collateral Agent or other applicable withholding agent) requires the payment, deduction or withholding of any Tax from or in respect of the Collateral Account or any Collateral Account Property or any cash or other property distributed or received in respect of the Collateral, then the Collateral Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such payment, deduction or withholding and pay the amount deducted or withheld to the relevant governmental authority in accordance with applicable law, and any taxes so paid, deducted or withheld shall be economically borne by the Borrower, which shall not receive any additional amounts in respect of any such taxes. The Borrower shall indemnify the Collateral Agent within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any taxes payable or paid by the Collateral Agent or any other applicable withholding agent in respect of the Collateral or required to be withheld or deducted from or otherwise paid with respect to any cash or property distributed or received in respect of the Collateral, as well as in each case any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, and in each case whether or not such taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental authority. A certificate as to the amount and basis of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by the Collateral Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The parties' obligations under this Section 5.3 shall survive any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or the Collateral Agent, the termination of the Credit Agreement or the Collateral Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

5.4 Remedies

(a) If an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, may exercise all of the rights, powers and remedies in respect of the Collateral, in addition to all other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it at law or in equity, of a secured party on default under the UCC (whether or not the UCC applies to the affected Collateral) or other applicable law, and may also pursue any of the following (or any combination of the following) separately, successively or simultaneously:

-7-

(i) exercise dominion and control over the Collateral and the Collateral Account, and apply any and all cash amounts standing to the credit of the Collateral Account or otherwise constituting Collateral to pay the Secured Obligations, whether or not the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand under the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, and without prior notice to the Pledgor;

(ii) without notice to the Pledgor, to transfer all or any portion of the Collateral to its name or account or the name or account of its nominee or agent; and

(iii) without prior notice (except as specified herein or otherwise in accordance with the requirements of the UCC), sell, assign or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more transactions or lots at public or private sale, at any of the Collateral Agent's offices or elsewhere, for money, on credit or for future delivery, at such time or times and at such prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. Upon consummation of any such sale, the Collateral Agent will have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold, and each such purchaser will acquire the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of the Pledgor.

(b) The Collateral Agent may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral at any public or private sale thereof, subject to the requirements of the UCC. The Pledgor hereby waives any notice of the time and place of any public sale or the time at which any private sale or other disposition of any of the Collateral may be made. To the extent such notice may not be waived under applicable law, any notice made will be deemed reasonable if sent to the Pledgor, addressed as set forth in the notice provisions of this Agreement, at least ten days prior to the date of any such public sale or the time after which any such private sale or other disposition may be made. The Pledgor acknowledges that any private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a private sale and notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall not be deemed to have been made in a commercially unreasonable manner solely by virtue of such sale being private. The Pledgor acknowledges that the Collateral is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market and is subject to widely distributed price quotations and may threaten to decline speedily in value within the meaning of the UCC.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any such sales, assignments or dispositions of Collateral, or other proceeds of the Collateral, after deduction of any costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent in connection with such sales, assignments or dispositions, to the payment of the Secured Obligations to the Secured Parties. If the proceeds of any sale, assignment or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the entire amount of the Secured Obligations, the Pledgor shall remain liable for the deficiency. If the proceeds of any sale, assignment or other disposition of the Collateral are more than sufficient to pay the entire amount of the Secured Obligations, the Collateral Agent shall transfer the surplus amount as directed by the Pledgor.

-8-

Section 6. CUSTODIAN

6.1 Custodian's Responsibilities

(a) The Custodian shall not be liable to the Pledgor for complying with Orders originated by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, even if the Pledgor notifies the Custodian that the Collateral Agent or relevant Secured Party is not legally entitled to issue Orders, unless the Custodian takes the action after being served with an injunction, restraining order, or other legal process enjoining it from doing so, issued by a court of competent jurisdiction, and has had a reasonable opportunity to act on the injunction, restraining order or other legal process.

(b) The Custodian shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing in good faith believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper person.

(c) The Custodian may obtain the advice of external legal counsel selected by it to advise on (i) the interpretation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) any action of the Custodian necessary to satisfy the Custodian's duties hereunder and shall be fully protected in relying in good faith on counsel's advice on such interpretation or action or in connection with any subsequent acts or omissions of the Custodian made in good faith in reliance upon and in conformity with such advice. Further, if at any time the Custodian determines that on account of non-contractual legal obligations wholly apart from its obligations under this Agreement, the Custodian is uncertain as to its duties to transfer the digital assets in the Collateral Account as instructed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, as applicable (including, without limitation, due to a determination by the Custodian that a transfer may be prohibited by applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally), then the Custodian shall promptly give the Secured Parties and the Pledgor written notice of its determination and may retain the digital assets in the Collateral Account until the Custodian determines that its non-contractual legal obligations to transfer digital assets in the Collateral Account as instructed by the Collateral Agent (or other Secured Party), as applicable, have been adequately clarified. The determination may be based upon the receipt of (i) an order from a court (or other forum) of competent jurisdiction that directs the Custodian to take action in respect of the digital assets in the Collateral Account, (ii) a copy of a declaratory or other judgment from a court (or other forum) of competent jurisdiction that clarifies its legal obligations to transfer digital assets in the Collateral Account as instructed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, as applicable, (iii) an opinion of external counsel acceptable in good faith to the Custodian stating that the Custodian is permitted by law to transfer the digital assets in the Collateral Account as instructed by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party, as applicable or (iv) other assurances satisfactory to Custodian.

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Custodian will have no responsibility or liability to the Secured Parties or the Pledgor or to any other person or entity for acting in accordance with (i) any judicial or arbitral process, injunction or other order, writ, judgment, decree or claim relating to the Collateral Account or the Collateral Account Property even if subsequently modified, vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect, (ii) the rules, regulations or interpretations of any regulatory body of competent jurisdiction, or (iii) any instructions given or made to the Custodian by any regulatory body of competent jurisdiction acting in an official capacity.

(e) This Agreement does not create any obligation of the Custodian except for those expressly set forth in this Agreement. In particular, the Custodian will have no fiduciary duties under this Agreement to any other party, whether as trustee, agent, bailee or otherwise.

-9-

(f) The Custodian shall have no duty to notify the Pledgor or make any inquiry into or investigate whether or not an event of default exists under any agreement between the Pledgor and the Secured Parties or the Secured Parties' right or authority to deliver any Orders or instructions.

(g) The Custodian shall have no obligation to monitor, ensure, or enforce the Pledgor's or the Secured Parties' compliance with any applicable law, rule, regulation, or order and shall not be deemed to have breached any provision of this Agreement or to have committed fraud, negligence, gross negligence, or willful misconduct for obeying an instruction authorized under this Agreement that violates or is alleged to violate any applicable law, rule, regulation or order.

(h) In no event will the Custodian have any liability to the Pledgor or the Secured Parties or any third party in connection herewith for any (i) consequential, special, punitive or indirect loss or damage whether or not any claim for such damages is based on tort or contract or whether the Custodian knew or should have known the likelihood of such damages in any circumstances, (ii) failure to comply with Orders or delay in complying with Orders if such failure or delay is due to strikes, lockouts or other labor disturbances, riots, fire, earthquake, floods, lightning, pandemics, epidemics, other acts of God, or circumstances beyond the Custodian's reasonable control, (iii) failure to act by the Pledgor or the Secured Parties or (iv) failure to act due to its determination that such action would result in the Custodian failing to comply with a statute, rule or regulation, binding upon the Custodian, except, with respect to (iv) above, to the extent such losses, liabilities and damages directly result from Custodian's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(i) In the event that the Custodian is liable to the Pledgor or the Secured Parties under this Agreement, the Custodian's liability shall be limited to the lesser of (i) the actual direct and provable amount of money damages suffered by the claiming party or (ii) the amount maintained in the Collateral Account at the time the claim for such liability arose.

6.2 Priority of Secured Party's Security Interest; Rights Reserved by Custodian. All of the Custodian's present and future rights against the Collateral Account are subordinate to the security interest of the Secured Parties therein; provided, however, that the Secured Parties agree that nothing herein subordinates or waives, and that the Custodian expressly reserves, all of its present and future rights, including a security interest prior to that of the Collateral Agent's in the Collateral Account to the extent necessary to secure the Custodian for the payment of any usual and customary commissions or fees or expenses owing to the Custodian with respect to the Collateral Account.

6.3 Indemnity.

The Pledgor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Custodian, its affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees, and agents against all claims, demands, losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney's fees and disbursements and the reasonable estimate of the allocated costs and expenses of the Custodian's in-house legal counsel and staff) in any way arising out of:

(a) the Custodian in complying with instructions or requests given by the Secured Parties hereunder;

-10-

(b) the Collateral Account, any Collateral Account Property or any other Collateral;

(c) this Agreement or any default under or breach of this Agreement by the Pledgor;

(d) any action taken or omitted by the Custodian or the Collateral Agent under this Agreement or any exercise or enforcement of rights or remedies under this Agreement; or

(e) any sale or other disposition of or any realization on any Collateral Account Property or any other Collateral,

except to the extent the claims, liabilities, costs and expenses are caused by the Custodian's gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.

6.4 Reliance. The Custodian will be entitled to rely, without independent verification, upon representations of the Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent and any certificate, notice or other document of the Pledgor, the Collateral Agent or the Administrative Agent or other appropriate persons it believes to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the person or persons purporting to issue that certificate, notice or other document.

6.5 Statements; Notices of Adverse Claims. At the Secured Parties' expense and request, to the extent the Custodian has the operational ability to do so, the Custodian agrees to send copies of all statements with respect to the Collateral Account to the Collateral Agent and Administrative Agent. The Custodian is authorized to disclose to the Secured Parties such other information concerning the Collateral Account as each Secured Party may from time to time request; provided, however, that the Custodian shall have no duty or obligation to comply with any such request. Except as otherwise required by law, the Custodian will use reasonable efforts to promptly notify each of the Secured Parties and the Pledgor if the Custodian receives a notice that any other person claims that it has a security or property interest in or lien upon a Collateral Account. The Pledgor and the Administrative Agent shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of a statement of a Collateral Account to notify the Custodian of an error in such statement. The Custodian's liability for any such error is limited in accordance with Section 6 hereof.

6.6 Custody agreement

In the event of a conflict between this Agreement, the Custody Agreement and any other agreement between Custodian and Pledgor, the terms of this Agreement will prevail.

| 3. | Certain Waivers; Acknowledgments. The Guarantor further acknowledges and agrees as follows:

(a)            The Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to revoke this Guaranty and acknowledges that this Guaranty is continuing in nature and applies to all presently existing and future Obligations, until the complete, irrevocable and indefeasible payment and satisfaction in full of the Obligations.

(b)            This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection.

(c)            This Guaranty is a direct guaranty and independent of the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement. The Beneficiary may enforce this Guaranty upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement, without limitation of other rights to enforce this Guaranty under other circumstances as set forth herein.

(d)            The Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all rights by statute or otherwise to require the Beneficiary to institute suit against the Guarantor and/or to exercise due diligence in enforcing this Guaranty. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Obligations of the Guarantor shall be limited to the maximum amount so as to not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Debtor Relief Laws or any applicable state or provincial law or otherwise to the extent applicable to this Guaranty and the Obligations of the Guarantor hereunder.

(e)            Any interest on any portion of the Obligations that accrues after the commencement of any proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, involving the bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, liquidation or arrangement of the Borrower (or, if interest on any portion of the Obligations ceases to accrue by operation of law by reason of the commencement of said proceeding, such interest as would have accrued on such portion of the Obligations if said proceeding had not been commenced) shall be included in the Obligations because it is the intention of the Guarantor and the Beneficiary that the Obligations should be determined without regard to any rule of law or order that may relieve the Borrower of any portion of such Obligations.

(f)            The Guarantor agrees that its guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time all or part of any payment of any Obligation is voided, rescinded or recovered or must otherwise be returned by the Beneficiary upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower.
