The Bank may in its discretion require the Company to assemble all or any part of the Collateral at such location or locations within the jurisdiction(s) of the Company's principal office(s) or at such other locations as the Bank may reasonably designate. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Bank shall give to the Company at least five business days prior written notice of the time and place of any public sale of Collateral or of the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition is to be made. The Company hereby acknowledges that five business days prior written notice of such sale or sales shall be reasonable notice. In addition, the Company waives any and all rights that it may have to a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Bank's rights hereunder, including, without limitation, their right following an Event of Default to take immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights with respect thereto. Section 12. Standards for Exercising Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Bank to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Company acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Bank (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Bank to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third-party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third-party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as the Company, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (9) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Bank against risks of loss, collection, or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Bank a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (I) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Bank, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants, and other professionals to assist the Bank in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. The Company acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 12 is to provide nonexhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Bank would not be commercially unreasonable in the Bank's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Bank shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 12. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 12 shall be construed to grant any rights to the Company or to impose any duties on the Bank that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 12. Section 13. No Waiver by Bank, Etc. The Bank shall not be deemed to have waived any of its rights upon or under the Obligations or the Collateral unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the Bank.

A waiver on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any right on any future occasion.

After deducting all of said expenses, the residue of any proceeds of collection or sale of the Obligations or Collateral shall, to the extent actually received in cash, be applied to the payment of the Obligations in such order or preference as the Bank may determine or in such order or preference as is provided in the Loan Agreement, proper allowance and provision being made for any Obligations not then due.

Waiver of Jury Trial. THE COMPANY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, OR THE PERFORMANCE OF ANY SUCH RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS. Except as prohibited by law, the Company waives any right which it may have to claim or recover in any litigation referred to in the preceding sentence any special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages or any damages other than, or in addition to, actual damages.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor's liability hereunder shall extend to and include all post-petition interest, expenses, and other duties and liabilities of Debtor described above which would be owed by Debtor but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization, or similar proceeding involving Debtor. 1. Amount. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the liability of the Guarantor hereunder shall be unlimited. 2. Statement of Consideration. Guarantor stipulates that Guarantor will receive substantial and valuable consideration and benefits from the extension of credit by the Bank to Debtor and that it is in the Guarantor's best interest to enter into this guaranty. 3. Bank's Remedies. In the event of (i) an Event of Default as that term is defined in that certain Loan Agreement between Debtor and Bank dated as of the date hereof (the "Loan Agreement"), or (ii) a breach of any of the covenants or agreements of Guarantor contained herein, all Indebtedness shall, for the purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, be deemed, at the election of the Bank (as such term is defined in the Agreement), to be immediately due and payable. 4. Continuing Nature of Guaranty. Guarantor further agrees that this guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of the Indebtedness to Bank is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Bank upon the insolvency, bankruptcy and reorganization of the Debtor or otherwise, all as though such payment to Bank had not been made. 5. Guarantor's Authorization to Bank. The Bank may at any time and from time to time without notice to Guarantor, take any or all of the following actions without affecting or impairing the liability of Guarantor on this guaranty: (i) renew, extend, restructure, modify, rearrange or change the form of the Indebtedness (including, but not limited to, a decrease in the rate of interest due on the Indebtedness) or the time of payment of all or any portion of the Indebtedness, (ii) sell, exchange, accept, substitute, or realize upon any security or collateral for the Indebtedness, (iii) accept other guarantors or endorsers, and (iv) release, compromise or settle with any person primarily or secondarily liable on the Indebtedness, following a reasonable determination that such person is unable to satisfy his, her, or its liability on the Indebtedness (including any maker, co-maker, endorser or guarantor). There shall be no obligation on the part of the Bank, at any time, to seek or obtain a deficiency judgment against Debtor. Guarantor expressly and voluntarily waives and relinquishes all set offs, rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to guarantors, including without limitation, any and all suretyship defenses and offsets, set offs, remedies or defenses accorded guarantors by law. Nothing set forth in this Guaranty Agreement shall be construed to prevent or diminish Guarantor's right or ability to purchase the Note, which option is hereby granted to Guarantor, at a price equal to all principal, interest and fees due and owing pursuant to the Note (as such term is defined in the Loan Agreement) upon Debtor's default and failure to cure, if any ability to cure is available, and Bank's exercise of its rights against Guarantor pursuant to the terms hereof. 6. Relinquishment of Right of Offset. If the Bank elects to foreclose any lien in its favor, (i) the Bank is authorized to purchase all or any portion of collateral covered by such lien, and (ii) the amount of the sale proceeds received by the Bank, to be applied against the Indebtedness shall be the actual net proceeds received from a commercially reasonable sale of any such collateral. For good and valuable consideration, Guarantor hereby fully, voluntarily and expressly waives and relinquishes any statutory, contractual or other right to set off or offset the fair market value of any collateral or security for the Indebtedness against Guarantor's liability hereunder, so long as any disposition thereof is accomplished in a commercially reasonable manner. 7. Application of Payments of Indebtedness. Any and all payments upon the Indebtedness made by the Debtor, or by Guarantor, or by any other person, and the proceeds of any and all security for any of the Indebtedness may be applied by the Bank upon such of the items of the Indebtedness, and in such order, as Bank may determine. 8. Notice. It is also understood and reiterated that the Bank has no duty to collect from any other guarantor or to proceed against the collateral securing the Indebtedness prior to making demand upon Guarantor for payment of the Indebtedness up to the amount set forth in paragraph 1 above. 9. Guarantor Waivers. (a) Guarantor waives notice of acceptance hereof by the Bank. (b) Any payment or payments made by Guarantor hereunder notwithstanding, the Guarantor will not assert or exercise any right of the Bank or of such Guarantor against Debtor to recover the amount of any payment made by such Guarantor to the Bank by way of subrogation, reimbursement, contribution, indemnity or otherwise arising by contract or operation of law, and Guarantor shall not have any right of recourse to or any claim against assets or property of Debtor, whether or not the obligations of Debtor have been satisfied, all of such rights being herein expressly waived by Guarantor. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Guaranty, and any satisfaction and discharge of Debtor by virtue of any payment, court order or applicable law. (c) The provisions of Section 9(b) notwithstanding, Guarantor shall have and be entitled to all rights of subrogation otherwise provided by applicable law in respect of any payment Guarantor may make or be obligated to make under this Guaranty, and to assert and enforce the same, in each case on and after, but at no time prior to, the date (the "Subrogation Trigger Date") which is 91 days after the date on which all obligations under the underlying instruments shall have been paid or performed in full, if and only if the existence of Guarantor's rights under this Section 9(c) would not make Guarantor a creditor (as defined in the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978, as amended, 11 U.S.C. Section 101 et seq., and the regulations adopted and promulgated pursuant thereto) of Debtor in any insolvency bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding commenced on or prior to the Subrogation Trigger Date. 10. Guarantor's Representation and Warranties. This guaranty shall bind the heirs, successors and assigns of Guarantor and inure the benefit of Bank and its successors and assigns. This guaranty is deemed executed and delivered in the City of Oklahoma City, State of Oklahoma and shall be governed by and was contracted for in the city set forth above, and this guaranty is hereby deemed to have been given when received and accepted by the Bank in such city. Guarantor hereby waives all objections to venue and consents and submits to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in such city or the county in which such city is located, or in any state or county in which real property security any promissory note executed by Debtor is located in connection with any action instituted by the Bank by reason of or arising out of the execution, delivery or performance of any promissory note executed by Debtor or the collection of any of the Indebtedness or this guaranty. Wherever possible each provision of this guaranty shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this guaranty shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this guaranty. If Guarantor is a corporation, this guaranty has been duly authorized to be executed, delivered and performed by the undersigned corporate officers pursuant to all necessary corporate action of the board of directors of the Guarantor. 11. Waivers and Settlements. All rights of the Bank are cumulative and not alternative to other rights and may be selectively and successively enforced by the Bank as it may elect or determine in the sole discretion of the Bank and such action(s) shall not be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of any other right or remedy held by the Bank.

To the extent permitted by law, the Company hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable. 10.3 No Duty on Bank. The powers conferred on the Bank hereunder are solely to protect the interests of the Bank in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers.

In addition, the Company waives any and all rights that it may have to a judicial hearing in advance of the enforcement of any of the Bank's rights hereunder, including, without limitation, their right following an Event of Default to take immediate possession of the Collateral and to exercise its rights with respect thereto. Section 12. Standards for Exercising Remedies. To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Bank to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, the Company acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Bank (a) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Bank to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (b) to fail to obtain third-party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain governmental or third-party consents for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (c) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (d) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (e) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (f) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as the Company, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (9) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (h) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (i) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (j) to disclaim disposition warranties, (k) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Bank against risks of loss, collection, or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Bank a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (I) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Bank, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants, and other professionals to assist the Bank in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. The Company acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 12 is to provide nonexhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Bank would not be commercially unreasonable in the Bank's exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Bank shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 12. Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 12 shall be construed to grant any rights to the Company or to impose any duties on the Bank that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section 12.
