EXHIBIT B LANDLORD’S WORK; INITIAL TENANT WORK; CONSTRUCTION ALLOWANCE 1. Acceptance of Premises. Except as set forth in this Exhibit, Tenant accepts the Premises in their “AS-IS” condition on the date that this Lease is entered into. Landlord, at Landlord’s sole cost and expense, shall perform the following work in accordance with the plans attached hereto as Exhibit B-2 (“Landlord’s Plans”): (a) Refurbish and expand the base building 2nd and 3rd floor restrooms (collectively, the “New Bathrooms”) to new building standard (collectively, the “Bathroom Work”). (b) Refurbish the Building’s main entrance lobby (the “Common Area Work”). (c) Refurbish the Building’s cafeteria space. (d) Construct a new Building fitness facility with showers and lockers. The work described in the foregoing sections (a) through (d) shall collectively be referred to herein, as “Landlord’s Work”. In no event shall any cost incurred by Landlord in connection with any or all of Landlord’s Work be deducted from the Construction Allowance. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete either the 2nd or 3rd floor restrooms that is part of the Bathroom Work and the Common Area Work on or prior to August 31, 2017 and shall complete the remaining Bathroom Work as soon thereafter as is reasonably practicable. Landlord shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete items (c) and (d) of Landlord’s Work on or prior to December 31, 2017. 2. Initial Tenant Work. Tenant may construct those certain tenant improvements and install certain fixtures, equipment and cabling in the Premises required by Tenant for its occupancy as shown on the preliminary site plan attached hereto as Exhibit B-3 (the “Initial Tenant Work”) in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Exhibit B. 3. Plans. Landlord shall notify Tenant whether it approves of the submitted working drawings for the Initial Tenant Work within ten (10) business days after Tenant’s submission thereof. Landlord’s approval of the working drawings shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed so long as such drawings are consistent with the preliminary site plan for the Initial Tenant Work attached hereto as Exhibit B-3. If Landlord disapproves of such working drawings, then Landlord shall notify Tenant thereof specifying in writing in reasonable detail the reasons for such disapproval, in which case Tenant shall, within five (5) business days after such notice, revise such working drawings in accordance with Landlord’s objections and submit the revised working drawings to Landlord for its review and approval. Landlord shall notify Tenant in writing whether it approves of the resubmitted working drawings within five (5) business days after its receipt thereof. This process shall be repeated until the working drawings have been finally approved by Tenant and Landlord. 4. Costs. The entire cost of performing the Initial Tenant Work (including design of the Initial Tenant Work and preparation of drawings, costs of construction labor and materials, electrical B-1
usage during construction, additional janitorial services, general tenant signage, related taxes and insurance costs, and the construction supervision fee referenced below, all of which costs are herein collectively called the “Total Construction Costs”) in excess of the Construction Allowance (hereinafter defined) shall be paid by Tenant. 5. Construction Allowance. Landlord shall provide to Tenant a construction allowance not to exceed Four Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($400,000.00) (the “Construction Allowance”) to be applied toward the Total Construction Costs. Landlord shall pay to Tenant the Construction Allowance in accordance with the terms of Section 7 below and following the receipt by Landlord of the following items: (a) a request for payment, (b) final or partial lien waivers, as the case may be, from all persons performing work or supplying or fabricating materials for the Initial Tenant Work, fully executed, acknowledged and in recordable form, (c) an architect’s certification that the Initial Tenant Work for which reimbursement has been requested has been finally completed, including (with respect to the last application for payment only) any punch-list items, on the appropriate AIA form or another form approved by Landlord, and, if then available, and if not, as a condition to the final disbursement of the Construction Allowance held by Landlord, (d) “as built” drawings in both paper and AutoCad format; (e) the temporary certificate of occupancy or its equivalent issued for the Premises. In addition, reimbursement of the Construction Allowance is subject to Tenant’s occupancy of the Premises but will be made timely thereafter and after receipt of a Completed Allocation for Payment, and if requested by Landlord in writing within two (2) weeks after Landlord’s receipt of any Completed Application for Payment, after completion of an estoppel certificate in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Tenant confirming such factual matters as Landlord or Landlord’s Mortgagee may reasonably request (collectively, a “Completed Application for Payment”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Exhibit, Landlord shall not be obligated to make any disbursement of the Construction Allowance during the pendency of any of the following: (1) Landlord has received written notice of any unpaid claims relating to any portion of the Initial Tenant Work or materials in connection therewith, other than claims which will be paid in full from such disbursement, (2) there is an unbonded lien outstanding against the Building or the Premises or Tenant’s interest therein by reason of work done, or claimed to have been done, or materials supplied or specifically fabricated, claimed to have been supplied or specifically fabricated, to or for Tenant or the Premises, (3) the conditions to the advance of the Construction Allowance are not satisfied, or (4) a Default by Tenant exists. A portion of the Construction Allowance, not to exceed Three Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($300,000.00), may be used by Tenant to purchase cabling and furniture, fixtures and equipment (“FF&E”) for the Premises and/or to pay for moving costs associated with Tenant’s move in to the Premises (collectively, the “Soft Costs”). In the event that Tenant uses more than One Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($150,000.00) of the Construction Allowance to pay for FF&E (excluding relocation of existing glass office walls) (such portion of the FF&E costing in excess of $150,000, the “Soft Cost FF&E”), then such Soft Cost FF&E shall belong to Landlord, shall, at no cost to Tenant, be titled in Landlord’s name, and shall remain Landlord’s property upon the expiration or earlier termination of the Lease (unless Landlord, in Landlord’s sole discretion, requires any or all of such FF&E to be removed by Tenant upon expiration or earlier termination), provided that during the Term, Tenant: (i) may use such Soft Cost FF&E without charge (and Landlord shall not remove or grant any other party the right to use same) and (ii) shall be responsible for any and all personal property taxes on such Soft Cost FF&E. Should Tenant elect to use a portion of the Construction Allowance to pay for Soft Costs, Tenant and Landlord must execute a mutually agreeable letter agreement or new amendment to the Lease, which shall confirm the exact amount(s) of the Construction Allowance that will be used to purchase each of cabling, FF&E and/or to pay for moving costs. Subject to the terms and B-2
conditions of Article 8, Tenant be obligated to repair, replace or restore the Soft Cost FF&E in the event of any damage thereto, including, without limitation, casualty or condemnation and (z) Tenant’s obligation to surrender the Soft Cost FF&E to Landlord at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease shall be subject to reasonable wear and tear. Provided no Default exists, Landlord shall pay for the Soft Costs in accordance with Section 7 below. 6. Additional Construction Allowance. The amount of the Construction Allowance shall be increased by an additional Two Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($200,000.00) (the “Additional Construction Allowance”) if and when the Stabilization Event (as defined in Section 7 below) is satisfied. In such event, Landlord and Tenant shall execute an amendment to this Lease confirming the new increased amount of the Construction Allowance. All of the other terms and conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Construction Allowance provided for in Section 5 above shall apply to the disbursement of the Additional Construction Allowance. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the total amount of the Construction Allowance and/or the Additional Construction Allowance exceeds the total cost of Initial Tenant Work (such excess, the “Excess Allowance”), then Landlord agrees that, upon Tenant’s written request, Tenant shall have the right to have any such Excess Allowance credited towards the monthly installment(s) of Base Rent becoming due hereunder (until such Excess Allowance available for such credit is exhausted) commencing in the first month subsequent to Substantial Completion of the Initial Tenant Work that a monthly installment of Base Rent becomes due. In the event Tenant desires any such credit, Tenant shall notify Landlord of the amounts that Tenant wants credited within ninety (90) days following Substantial Completion of the Initial Tenant Work. Notwithstanding anything provided herein, in no event shall such credit of Base Rent exceed One Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($100,000.00). 7. Payment of Construction Allowance. No advance of the Construction Allowance shall be made by Landlord until Tenant has first paid from its own funds (and provided reasonable evidence thereof to Landlord) the amount of the Construction Allowance sought for reimbursement. Tenant shall promptly pay all contractors, vendors and suppliers as work is performed rather than waiting for Landlord to disburse the Construction Allowance. Provided Tenant has satisfied all of the conditions in Section 5 above, this Lease is in effect and Tenant is not in Default, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for the Total Construction Costs and/or the Soft Costs from the Construction Allowance as follows: fifty percent (50%) if and when The J.G. Wentworth Company, a Delaware corporation and its subsidiaries, satisfies all of the conditions set forth on Exhibit B-1 (collectively, the “Stabilization Event”) and fifty percent (50%) upon Tenant evidencing to Landlord’s reasonable satisfaction a Term Loan debt reduction of The J.G. Wentworth Company, a Delaware corporation and its subsidiaries, from $449,000,000 to $275,000,000 or less (the “Debt Reduction Event”). If by the first anniversary of the Commencement Date both of the Stabilization Event and Debt Reduction Event have not occurred, but all of the other conditions to disbursement of the Construction Allowance are met, Landlord shall disburse ten percent (10%) of the Construction Allowance on each anniversary of the Commencement Date, unless sooner paid upon achievement of the Stabilization Event and Debt Reduction Event. Landlord shall not be required to disburse more than the total amount of the Construction Allowance then actually expended by Tenant. EXHIBIT B-1 STABILIZATION EVENTS B-3
The Stabilization Event is defined as (1) Debt to EBITDA less than or equal to 6.0 in two consecutive quarters at any point after the Commencement Date and (2) no Debt maturities greater than $50M in forward 36 month period beyond the current maturity of February 2019. Debt = Term Loan Debt (or similar replacement debt) as publicly reported, referenced in the Term Loan Payable Footnote of the J. G. Wentworth Company’s financial statements . This Debt maturity is specific to the Term Loan Debt (or similar replacement debt). EBITDA = Adjusted EBITDA as publicly reported on a historical basis according to the Term Loan Agreement referenced in the Business Segments Section of the 10-Q Footnote 22. B-1-2

EXHIBIT C SPECIAL PROVISIONS 1. Option To Extend (a) Tenant is hereby granted the option ("Extension Option") to extend the term of the Lease for one (1) period of seven (7) Lease Years ("Extension Term"). The Extension Option may be exercised only by giving Landlord irrevocable and unconditional written notice thereof no earlier than eighteen (18) months and no later than fifteen (15) months prior to the commencement of the Extension Term. Tenant may not exercise the Extension Option if Tenant is in Default under the Lease either at the date of said notice or at any time thereafter prior to commencement of the Extension Term. Upon exercise of the Extension Option, all references in the Lease to the Term shall be deemed to be references to the Term as extended pursuant to the Extension Option. (b) The Extension Term shall be on the same terms, covenants and conditions as are contained in the Lease, except that (i) no additional extension option shall be conferred by the exercise of the Extension Option, (ii) Base Rent applicable to the Premises for the Extension Term shall be determined as provided below, and (iii) any initial rent abatement, concession or allowance which are in the nature of economic concessions or inducements shall not be applicable to any Extension Term. In addition to Base Rent, Tenant shall pay Additional Rent, and other Rent during the Extension Term as provided in this Lease. (c) Base Rent per annum per rentable square foot of the Premises for the Extension Term shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Current Market Rate for lease terms commencing on or about the date of commencement of the Extension Term. The term "Current Market Rate" means the prevailing rental rate per rentable square foot under office lease renewals recently executed for comparable space in the Building and in comparable buildings in the Building’s submarket. The determination of Current Market Rate shall take into consideration net versus gross lease (and differing base years, if applicable); any differences in the size of space being leased, the location of space in the building and the length of lease terms; any differences in definitions of rentable square feet or rentable area with respect to which rental rates are computed; the value of rent abatements, allowances (for demolition, space planning, architectural and engineering fees, construction, moving expenses or other purposes), the creditworthiness of Tenant; and other pertinent factors. The Current Market Rate may include an escalation of a fixed net rental rate (based on a fixed step or index) then prevailing in the market. (d) Within thirty (30) days after receipt of Tenant’s notice to extend Landlord shall deliver to Tenant written notice of the Current Market Rate, including a new base year for Operating Expenses and Taxes, and shall advise Tenant of the required adjustment to Base Rent, if any. (e) Tenant shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of Landlord’s notice, notify Landlord in writing whether Tenant (a) accepts Landlord’s determination of the Current Market Rate or (b) requests that the Current Market Rate be determined by an appraiser (“Arbitration Request”). If Tenant requests that the Current Market Rate be determined by an appraiser, Landlord and Tenant, within ten (10) days after the date of the Arbitration Request, shall each simultaneously submit to the other, in a sealed envelope, its good faith estimate of the Current Market Rate (collectively referred to as the “Estimates”). If the higher of such Estimates is not more than one hundred five percent (105%) of the lower of such Estimates, then the Current Market Rate shall be the average of the two Estimates. If the Current Market Rate is not resolved by the exchange of Estimates, Landlord and Tenant, within seven (7) days after the exchange of Estimates, shall each select an appraiser to determine which of the two Estimates most C-1
closely reflects the Current Market Rate. Each appraiser so selected shall be certified as an MAI appraiser and shall have had at least five (5) years experience within the previous ten (10) years as a real estate appraiser working in the same submarket in which the Building is located, with working knowledge of current office rental rates and practices. For purposes of this Lease, an “MAI” appraiser means an individual who holds an MAI designation conferred by, and is an independent member of, the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers (or its successor organization, or in the event there is no successor organization, the organization and designation most similar). Upon selection, Landlord’s and Tenant’s appraisers shall work together in good faith to agree upon which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the Current Market Rate. The Estimate chosen by such appraisers shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant as the Current Market Rate. If either Landlord or Tenant fails to appoint an appraiser within the seven day period referred to above, the appraiser appointed by the other party shall be the sole appraiser for the purposes hereof. If the two appraisers cannot agree upon which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the Current Market Rate within the twenty (20) days after their appointment, then, within ten (10) days after the expiration of such twenty (20) day period, the two (2) appraisers shall select a third appraiser meeting the aforementioned criteria. Once the third appraiser has been selected as provided for above, then, as soon thereafter as practicable but in any case within fourteen (14) days, the appraiser shall make his determination of which of the two Estimates most closely reflects the Current Market Rate and such Estimate shall be binding on both Landlord and Tenant as the Current Market Rate. The parties shall share equally in the costs of the third appraiser. Any fees of any appraiser, counsel or experts engaged directly by Landlord or Tenant, however, shall be borne by the party retaining such appraiser, counsel or expert. In the event that the Current Market Rate has not been determined by the commencement date of the Extension Term at issue, Tenant shall pay the most recent Base Rent set forth in the Lease until such time as the Current Market Rate has been determined. Upon such determination, Base Rent shall be retroactively adjusted. If such adjustment results in an underpayment of Base Rent by Tenant, Tenant shall pay Landlord the amount of such underpayment within thirty (30) days after the determination thereof. If such adjustment results in an overpayment of Base Rent by Tenant, Landlord shall credit such overpayment against the next installment of Base Rent due under the Lease and, to the extent necessary, any subsequent installments until the entire amount of such overpayment has been credited against Base Rent. (f) Tenant must timely exercise the Extension Option or the Extension Option shall terminate. Tenant may not exercise the Extension Option if Tenant is not occupying and conducting business in the Premises. Tenant's exercise of the Extension Option shall not operate to cure any default by Tenant of any of the terms or provisions in the Lease, nor to extinguish or impair any rights or remedies of Landlord arising by virtue of such default. If the Lease or Tenant's right to possession of the Premises shall terminate in any manner whatsoever before Tenant shall exercise the Extension Option, or if Tenant shall have subleased or assigned all or any portion of the Premises to any party other than a Permitted Transferee, then immediately upon such termination, sublease or assignment, the Extension Option shall simultaneously terminate and become null and void. The Extension Option is personal to Tenant and Approved Sublessee. 2. Right of First Refusal Subject to renewal options, expansion options, and other preferential rights to lease of other tenants existing as of the Execution Date, provided no Default then exists, provided Tenant and/or a Permitted Transferee is occupying the entire Premises initially leased, provided this Lease is then in full force and effect and provided that Tenant’s interest in this Lease has not been assigned other than to a Permitted Transferee, Tenant shall have the right of first refusal (“Right of First Refusal”) as hereinafter described, to lease any space in the Building that Landlord desires to make available for lease (“Right of First Refusal Space”), for a term beginning on the ROFR Effective Date (as hereinafter defined). This Right of First Refusal is exercisable at the following times and upon the following conditions: C-2
(a) Landlord shall not voluntarily lease the Right of First Refusal Space to a third party (other than to the then-current tenant or subtenant of such space) without making such lease (a “New Lease”) subject to Tenant’s Right of First Refusal. Landlord shall provide Tenant with at least 20 days prior written notice of the material business terms of any anticipated New Lease with a bona fide third party and not less than at least five (5) business days prior to the expiration of such 20 day period, Landlord shall provide a second written notice to Tenant (“Landlord’s ROFR Notice”) of the final agreed upon significant business terms of the bona fide proposal, including, without limitation, a description of that portion of the Right of First Refusal Space being offered (which may include space in excess of the Right of First Refusal Space) (“Landlord’s ROFR Notice Space”), the rent, the commencement date, the term, any allowances and any concessions to be given. Tenant shall have a period of five (5) business days after the date of delivery of Landlord’s ROFR Notice to notify Landlord (“Tenant’s ROFR Notice”), whether Tenant elects to exercise the right granted hereby to lease the entire Landlord’s ROFR Notice Space on the terms set forth in Landlord’s ROFR Notice. If Tenant elects to exercise its right to lease the Landlord’s ROFR Notice Space, the term thereof shall commence as of the commencement date set forth in the bona fide proposal (the “ROFR Effective Date”). If Tenant fails to give Tenant’s ROFR Notice to Landlord within the required five (5) business day period, Tenant shall be deemed to have refused its right to lease such space. (b) If Tenant fails to or does not elect to exercise its right to lease the Landlord’s ROFR Notice Space, Tenant’s rights under this Section shall be deemed waived as to such space and Landlord shall have the right to lease said space on terms not materially more favorable than the terms contained in the Landlord’s ROFR Notice. However, if the Landlord fails to execute a new lease within six (6) months of Tenant’s waiver or refusal, then Tenant’s Right of First Refusal shall be reinstated. Subject to the foregoing provisions, the parties intend that this Right of First Refusal shall be a continuing right throughout the Term. For purposes of this paragraph, the phrase “materially more favorable” shall mean that Landlord’s new deal terms are five percent (5%) or more lower on a net effective basis than Landlord’s offer to Tenant. (c) In the event that Tenant shall exercise its Right of First Refusal as provided herein, Landlord and Tenant promptly after Tenant gives Tenant’s ROFR Notice, shall enter into a written agreement modifying and supplementing this Lease to confirm the addition of the Landlord’s ROFR Notice Space to the Premises in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Lease, except as otherwise provided in Landlord’s ROFR Notice, but the effectiveness of the addition of Landlord’s ROFR Notice Space to the Premises shall not be conditioned upon the execution and delivery of such instrument. If Tenant exercises its Right of First Refusal, Landlord shall terminate the bona fide proposal for the Landlord’s ROFR Notice Space. 3. Exclusive Use. 3.1 Provided: (a) a Default does not then exist, (b) this Lease and the Guaranty are in full force and effect, (c) Tenant or an affiliate of Guarantor remains the Tenant under this Lease, and (d) Tenant or a Permitted Transferee is leasing and occupying at least the entire Premises initially leased, then Landlord shall not enter into a lease, license or other occupancy agreement for other space in the Building with any of the following entities (each, a “Restricted Establishment”): (1) any of the establishments listed on Exhibit K attached hereto (or their successors in interest), or (2) a party whose primary business in the Building is mortgage lending and refinancing, personal and business loans, structured settlement and annuity payment purchasing, prepaid card business, pre-settlement business, or credit card business (each, a "Competing Business" and the exclusive right of Tenant to conduct such businesses granted hereunder, the “Exclusive Use”). The term “primary business” as used herein shall be deemed to mean that portion of a party’s business comprising in excess of thirty percent (30%) of its business from such party’s particular leased premises at the Property only. Landlord shall be deemed to C-3
have leased, licensed or otherwise granted space in the Building only if (i) Landlord after the date of this Lease enters into a lease, license, occupancy or other agreement with (a) a Restricted Establishment, or (b) the tenant, licensee or occupant in question expressly permitting it to engage in the Competing Business, or (ii) Landlord's consent is required for any change to a permitted use, and Landlord consents, after the date of this Lease, to change such use to permit a Competing Business.

EXHIBIT E FORM OF GUARANTY This GUARANTY (“Guaranty”) is given by THE J.G. WENTWORTH COMPANY, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Guarantor”) to The GC Net Lease (Wayne) Investors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Landlord”), with respect to that certain Lease dated _______________, 2017 (“Lease”), by and between Landlord and Green Apple Management Company, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Tenant”), under which Tenant has leased from Landlord certain premises known as Suites 200 and 300 in 1200 Morris Drive, Wayne, Pennsylvania. To induce Landlord to execute the Lease and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which Guarantor acknowledges, Guarantor promises and agrees as follows: 1. Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally, and irrevocably guarantees the payment and performance of, and will pay and perform as a primary obligor, all of Tenant’s covenants, obligations, liabilities and duties under the Lease (“Guaranteed Obligations”), as if Guarantor had executed the Lease as Tenant. The Guaranteed Obligations include, without limitation, payment of rent and all other amounts required to be paid by Tenant under the Lease. 2. The Guaranteed Obligations are independent of Tenant’s obligations under the Lease. Landlord will not be required to enforce any of the Guaranteed Obligations against Tenant or any other person before seeking or enforcing the Guaranteed Obligations against Guarantor. Landlord may bring an action against Guarantor (or, if Guarantor is more than one party, against any or all of the parties who constitute Guarantor) to enforce any Guaranteed Obligations without joining Tenant, any other Guarantor, or any other person in this action. Landlord may join Guarantor in any action commenced by Landlord against Tenant to enforce any of the Guaranteed Obligations and Guarantor waives any demand by Landlord or any prior action by Landlord against Tenant. 3. Landlord is not obligated to apply any Security Deposit, or other deposit or credit against any default or damages under the Lease before bringing any action or pursuing any remedy available to Landlord against Guarantor. Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty is not affected in any manner by any Security Deposit, or other deposit or credit, or Landlord’s application of any of these amounts against any obligation of Tenant under the Lease. 4. Guarantor waives notice of any of the following, and the Guaranteed Obligations will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected in any way by either: (a) Any forbearance, indulgence, compromise, settlement or variation of terms which may be extended to Tenant by Landlord; (b) Any modification, amendment or alteration of the Lease, whether prior or subsequent to Lease execution, including any renewal or extension of the Lease, expansion or contraction of the Premises leased; (c) Any subletting of the premises demised under the Lease or any assignment of Tenant’s interest in the Lease; (d) Any termination of the Lease to the extent that Tenant remains liable under the Lease after such termination; (e) The release by Landlord of any party (other than Guarantor) obligated for the Guaranteed Obligations or Landlord’s acquisition, release, return or misapplication of any other collateral (including without limitation, any other guaranties) given now or later as additional security for the Guaranteed Obligations; E-1
(f) The release or discharge of Tenant in any creditors, receivership, bankruptcy or other proceedings; (g) The impairment, limitation or modification of the liability of Tenant or the estate of Tenant in bankruptcy, or of any remedy for the enforcement of Tenant’s liability under the Lease, resulting from the operation of any present or future provision of the Federal Bankruptcy Code or other statute, or from any court decision; (h) The rejection or disaffirmance of the Lease in any proceeding described in (g); or (i) Tenant’s death or any disability, or any other defense of Tenant. 5. Guarantor waives notice of acceptance of this Guaranty and all other notices in connection with this Guaranty or the Guaranteed Obligations, including notices of default by Tenant under the Lease, and waives diligence, presentment and suit by Landlord in the enforcement of any Guaranteed Obligations. 6. Until all Guaranteed Obligations are fully performed and observed, Guarantor has no right of subrogation and waives any right to enforce any remedy against Tenant for any payments or acts performed by Guarantor under this Guaranty, and Guarantor subordinates any liability or indebtedness of Tenant now or later held by Guarantor to the obligations of Tenant to Landlord under the Lease. 7. Guarantor will pay Landlord’s reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred in successfully enforcing Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty in any action or proceeding to which Landlord is a party. In any action brought under this Guaranty, Guarantor submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Pennsylvania, and to venue in the Superior Court of the State of Pennsylvania. 8. GUARANTOR WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER PARTY AGAINST THE OTHER CONCERNING ANY MATTER RELATED TO THIS GUARANTY. 9. This Guaranty binds Guarantor and each of its heirs, successors and assigns and will inure to the benefit of Landlord and its successors and assigns. 10. If Guarantor is more than one party, then the obligations of each party as Guarantor under this Guaranty are joint and several. 11. If the Guarantor is a corporation, the undersigned hereby represents and warrants that this Guaranty has been duly authorized, executed and delivered and that the party executing this Guaranty has all requisite corporate authority to execute this Guaranty. 12. If any provision of this Guaranty is found by a court to be invalid for any reason, the remainder of this Guaranty shall continue in full force and effect.
