Each U.K. Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally guarantees to the Administrative Agent and the U.K. Lenders the full and punctual payment when due (whether at stated maturity, by required pre-payment, by acceleration or otherwise) of all of the Obligations of the other U.K. Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in consideration of the financial accommodations to be provided by the Lenders, the Agents and the L/C Issuers under this Agreement, for the mutual benefit, directly and indirectly, of each U.K. Borrower and in consideration of the undertakings of the other U.K. Borrower to accept joint and several liability for the Obligations. Each U.K. Borrower agrees that this is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of the full and punctual payment of all of the Obligations of the other U.K. Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and not of their collectability only and is in no way conditioned upon any requirement that the Administrative Agent or any U.K. Lender first attempt to collect any of such Obligations from such U.K. Borrower or resort to any collateral security or other means of obtaining payment. Each U.K. Borrower, jointly and severally, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally accepts, not merely as a surety but also as a co-debtor, joint and several liability with the other U.K. Borrower with respect to the payment and performance of all of the Obligations (including, without limitation, any Obligations arising under this [Section 10.10(a)]), it being the intention of the parties hereto that all of the Obligations of the U.K. Borrowers shall be the joint and several Obligations of each U.K. Borrower without preferences or distinction among them. Each U.K. Borrower hereby waives all defenses relating to the joint and several liability described above, including, without limitation, all suretyship defenses.
