This Guaranty may be modified, and the Creditors’ rights hereunder waived, only by an agreement in writing signed by the Creditors.

(i) Notice of acceptance by the Creditors of this Guaranty and of the incurring of any or all of the obligations hereby guaranteed is hereby waived by the Parent Guarantor, and this Guaranty and all of the terms and provisions hereof shall immediately be binding upon the Parent Guarantor from the date of execution hereof.
