That in order to effectuate the guarantee described herein, Citigroup agrees
with CGMHI and the TARGETS Guarantee Trustee, for the equal and proportionate
benefit of the respective holders from time to time of the TARGETS (the
"Holders"), as follows:
ARTICLE I
Citigroup Guarantee
Citigroup does hereby fully and unconditionally guarantee (the
"Citigroup Guarantee") to the Holders the Guarantee Payments when due, in
accordance with the provisions of the Agreement, as provided below:
SECTION I.1. Notice of acceptance of the Citigroup Guarantee and of
default of performance by CGMHI is expressly waived, and payment under the
Citigroup Guarantee shall be subject to no condition other than the giving of a
written request for payment in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture,
stating the fact of default of performance, mailed to Citigroup at the following
address: Citigroup Inc., Office of Corporate Treasury, 153 East 53rd Street, 6th
Floor, New York, New York 10043, Attention: Treasurer. This Citigroup Guarantee
is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.
SECTION I.2. The right of the Holders under any debt instrument of
CGMHI that is outstanding as of the date hereof to claim payment from Citigroup
under the Citigroup Guarantee shall rank in priority of payment with Citigroup's
other obligations to exactly the same extent that the Guarantee Payments rank
with CGMHI's other obligations, if any.
SECTION I.3. The obligations of Citigroup under the Citigroup
Guarantee shall in no way be impaired by: (1) any extension, amendment,
modification or renewal of the TARGETS; (2) any waiver of any event of default,
extension of time or failure to enforce any of the TARGETS; or (3) any
extension, moratorium or other relief granted to CGMHI pursuant to any
applicable law or statute.
SECTION I.4. Citigroup shall be obligated to make payment under the
Citigroup Guarantee, for the benefit of the Holders, at the same address as
CGMHI is obligated to make payment.
SECTION I.5. (a) Subject to clause (b) below, Citigroup hereby
agrees that the Guarantee Payments will be paid strictly in accordance with the
terms of the Agreement, regardless of the value, genuineness, validity,
regularity or enforceability of the TARGETS. Subject to clause (b) below, the
liability of Citigroup to the extent herein set forth shall be absolute and
unconditional, not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment,
termination, defense, offset, counterclaim or recoupment whatsoever (all of
which are hereby expressly waived by Citigroup) whether by reason of any claim
of any character whatsoever, including, without limitation, any claim of waiver,
release, surrender, alteration or compromise, or by reason of any liability at
any time to Citigroup or otherwise, whether based upon any obligations or any
other agreement or otherwise, and howsoever arising, whether out of action or
inaction or otherwise and whether resulting from default, willful misconduct,
negligence or otherwise, and without limiting the foregoing, irrespective of:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any agreement or
instrument relating to the TARGETS;
(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in
any other term in respect of, all or any of the TARGETS, or any other
amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any other
agreement relating to any TARGETS;
(iii) any increase in, addition to, exchange or release of, or
nonperfection of any lien on or security interest in, any collateral, or
any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from or
failure to enforce any other guarantee, for all or any of the
indebtedness;
(iv) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a
defense available to, or a discharge of, CGMHI in respect of the TARGETS;
(v) the absence of any action on the part of the TARGETS Guarantee
Trustee to obtain payment of the TARGETS from CGMHI;
2
(vi) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or dissolution, or
any similar proceeding of CGMHI, including, without limitation, rejection
of the TARGETS in such bankruptcy; or
(vii) the absence of notice or any delay in any action to enforce
any TARGETS or to exercise any right or remedy against Citigroup, or
CGMHI, whether hereunder, under any TARGETS or any agreement or any
indulgence, compromise or extension granted.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Citigroup Guarantee,
Citigroup does not waive any defense that would be available to CGMHI based on,
among other things, a breach, default or misrepresentation by the TARGETS
Guarantee Trustee, or failure of any condition to CGMHI's obligations under the
Agreement or the illegality of any provision of the Agreement.
SECTION I.6. Citigroup further agrees that, to the extent that CGMHI
or Citigroup makes a payment or payments to the TARGETS Guarantee Trustee, which
payment or payments or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared
to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to
CGMHI or Citigroup or their respective estate, trustee, receiver or any other
party under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable
cause, then to the extent of such payment or repayment, this Citigroup Guarantee
and the advances or part thereof which have been paid, reduced or satisfied by
such amount shall be reinstated and continued in full force and effect as of the
date such initial payment, reduction or satisfaction occurred.
SECTION I.7. Until the TARGETS are paid in full, Citigroup shall
have no rights (direct or indirect) of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement,
indemnification, or other rights of payment or recovery from CGMHI for any
payments made by Citigroup hereunder.
SECTION I.8. This Citigroup Guarantee shall be binding upon and
shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors
and assigns, including, without limitation, the Trustee.
