or shall fail to observe, perform or discharge any Obligation, in accordance
with the terms of the Guaranteed Agreement, Guarantor shall forthwith pay,

-----------------
with respect to each and all of the Obligations shall be absolute and
unconditional, irrespective of any matter or circumstances, including, without
limitation, any waiver of, amendment to, modification of, or consent to

waiver or consent involving a change in the time, manner or place of payment of,
or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations.

bankruptcy or reorganization of FKWW or otherwise, all as though such payment
had not been made.
4. Waiver by Guarantor. Guarantor hereby waives promptness, diligence,

--------------------
a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Guaranty will cause the Company

such breach the Company shall, without the posting of bond or other security, be
entitled to the remedy of specific performance of such provision and injunctive
and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be
entitled, at law or in equity.

this Guaranty or any document related thereto. It is understood that a copy of
such process serviced on such agent will be promptly forwarded by mail to it at
its address set forth under its signature below, but the failure to receive such
copy shall not affect in any way the service of such process. Guarantor hereto
further irrevocably consents to the service of process of any of the
aforementioned courts in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies

address, such service to become effective upon confirmed delivery. Guarantor

hereby further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or
claim in any such action, suit or proceeding brought in any such court that such
action, suit or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

provisions of this Guaranty and the remaining portion of any provision held void
or unenforceable in part shall continue in full force and effect.
5.6 Modifications, Amendment, Waivers. No modifications or amendment
---------------------------------
of this Guaranty and no waiver of any of the terms or conditions hereof, shall
be valid or binding unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized
officer of Guarantor, or in the case of a waiver, by the Company, subject to
Section 6.8 of the Guaranteed Agreement, as applicable. No delay on the part of
the Company in exercising any right, power, privilege hereunder shall operate as
a waiver thereof. No waiver by the Company of any breach hereof or of any
default hereunder, shall constitute a continuing waiver of such provision or any
other provision of this Guaranty.
