CONTINUING GUARANTEE OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. For good and valuable
consideration, Guarantor absolutely and unconditionally guarantees full and
punctual payment and satisfaction of the Indebtedness of Borrower, or any one or
more of them, to Lender, and the performance and discharge of all Borrower's
obligations under the Note and the Related Documents. This is a guaranty of
payment and performance and not of collection, so Lender can enforce this
Guaranty against Guarantor even when Lender has not exhausted Lender's remedies
against anyone else obligated to pay the Indebtedness or against any collateral
securing the Indebtedness, this Guaranty or any other Guaranty of the
Indebtedness. Guarantor will make any, payments to Lender or its order, on
demand, in legal tender of the United States of America, in same-day funds,
without set-off or deduction or counterclaim, and will otherwise perform
Borrower's obligations under the Note and related Documents. Under this
Guaranty, Guarantor's liability is unlimited and Guarantor's obligations are
continuing.
INDEBTEDNESS. The word "Indebtedness" as used in this Guaranty means all of the
principal amount outstanding from time to time and at any one or more times,
accrued unpaid interest thereon and all collection costs and legal expenses
related thereto permitted by law, attorneys' fees, arising from any and all
debts,. liabilities and obligations of every nature or form, now existing or
hereafter arising or acquired, that Borrower individually or collectively or
interchangeably with others, owes or will owe Lender. "Indebtedness" includes,
without limitation, loans, advances, debts, overdraft indebtedness, credit card
indebtedness, lease obligations, liabilities and obligations under any interest
rate protection agreements or foreign currency exchange agreements or commodity
price protection agreements, other obligations, and liabilities of Borrower, or
any one or more of them, and any present or future judgments against Borrower,
or any one or more of them, future advances, loans or transactions that renew,
extend, modify, refinance, consolidate or substitute these debts, liabilities
and obligations whether: voluntarily or involuntarily incurred; due or to become
due by their terms or acceleration; absolute or contingent; liquidated or
unliquidated; determined or undetermined; direct or indirect; primary or
secondary in nature or arising from a guaranty or surety; secured or unsecured;
joint or several or joint and several; evidenced by a negotiable or
non-negotiable instrument or writing; originated by Lender or another or others;
barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason whatsoever; for any
transactions that may be voidable for any reason (such as infancy, insanity,
ultra xxxxx or otherwise); and originated then reduced or extinguished and then
afterwards increased or reinstated.
If Lender presently holds one or more guaranties, or hereafter receives
additional guaranties from Guarantor, Lender's rights under all guaranties shall
be cumulative. This Guaranty shall not (unless specifically provided below to
the contrary) affect or invalidate any such other guaranties. Guarantor's
liability will be Guarantor's aggregate liability under the terms of this
Guaranty and any such other unterminated guaranties.
CONTINUING GUARANTY. THIS IS A "CONTINUING GUARANTY" UNDER WHICH GUARANTOR
AGREES TO GUARANTEE THE FULL AND PUNCTUAL PAYMENT, PERFORMANCE AND SATISFACTION
OF THE INDEBTEDNESS OF BORROWER, OR ANY ONE OR MORE OF THEM, TO LENDER, NOW
EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING OR ACQUIRED, ON AN OPEN AND CONTINUING BASIS.
ACCORDINGLY, ANY PAYMENTS MADE ON THE INDEBTEDNESS WILL NOT DISCHARGE OR
DIMINISH GUARANTOR'S OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITY UNDER THIS GUARANTY FOR ANY
REMAINING AND SUCCEEDING INDEBTEDNESS EVEN WHEN ALL OR PART OF THE OUTSTANDING
INDEBTEDNESS MAY BE A ZERO BALANCE FROM TIME TO TIME.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender
without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or
to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all the Indebtedness incurred
or contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have
been fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's other
obligations under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor
elects to revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's
written notice of revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at
Lender's address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in
writing. Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to new Indebtedness
created after actual receipt by Lender of 'Guarantor's written revocation. For
this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness" does not
include the Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is
contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes
absolute, liquidated, determined or due. For this purpose and without
limitation, "new Indebtedness" does not include all or part of the Indebtedness
that is: incurred by Borrower prior to revocation; incurred under a commitment
that became binding before revocation; any renewals, extensions, substitutions,
and modifications of the Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall bind Guarantor's
estate as to the Indebtedness created both before and after Guarantor's death or
incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of Guarantor's death. Subject
to the foregoing, Guarantor's executor or administrator or other legal
representative may terminate this Guaranty in the same manner in which Guarantor
might have terminated it and with the same effect. Release of any other
guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of the Indebtedness shall not
affect the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty. A revocation Lender
receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not affect the liability of any
remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty, Guarantor's obligations under this
Guaranty shall be in addition to any of Guarantor's obligations, or any of them,
under any other guaranties of the Indebtedness or any other person heretofore or
hereafter given to Lender unless such other guaranties are modified or revoked
in writing; and this Guarantor shall not, unless provided in this -Guaranty,
affect, invalidate, or supersede any such other guaranty. It is anticipated that
fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of the Indebtedness covered by
this Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees that
reductions in the amount of the Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00),
shall not constitute a termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding
upon Guarantor and Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of
the Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness may from time
to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
OBLIGATIONS OF MARRIED PERSONS. Any married person who signs this Guaranty
hereby expressly agrees that recourse under this Guaranty may be had against
both his or her separate property and community property.
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before
or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening
Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to
revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional secured or
unsecured loans to Borrower, to, lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or
otherwise to extend additional credit to Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise,
renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for
payment or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness,
including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the Indebtedness;
extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan term;
(C) to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the
Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to
perfect, and release any such security, with or without the substitution of new
collateral; (D) to release, substitute, agree not to xxx, or deal with any one
or more of Borrower's sureties, endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or

(including those for unpaid taxes) against Guarantor is pending or threatened;
(I) Lender has made no representation to Guarantor as to the creditworthiness of

Borrower on a continuing basis information regarding Borrower's financial
condition. Guarantor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any
facts, events, or circumstances which might in any way affect Guarantor's risks
under this Guaranty, and Guarantor further agrees that, absent a request for
information, Lender shall have no obligation to disclose to Guarantor any
information or documents acquired by Lender in the course of its relationship
with Borrower.
GUARANTOR'S WAIVERS. Except as prohibited by applicable law, Guarantor waives
any right to require Lender to (A) make any presentment, protest, demand, or
notice of any kind, including notice of change of any terms of repayment of the
Indebtedness, default by Borrower or any other guarantor or surety, any action
or nonaction taken by Borrower, Lender, or any other guarantor or surety of
Borrower, or the creation of new or additional Indebtedness; (B) proceed against

any disability or other defense of Borrower, any other guarantor or surety or
any other person; (I) the cessation from any cause whatsoever, other than
payment in full, of the Indebtedness; (J) the application of proceeds of the

of limitations in any action under this Guaranty or on the Indebtedness; or (M)

time payment of the Indebtedness is due and any change in the interest rate, and
including any such modification or change in terms after revocation of this
Guaranty on the Indebtedness incurred prior to such revocation.
Guarantor waives all rights of subrogation, reimbursement, indemnification, and
contribution and any other rights and defenses that are or may become available
to Guarantor by reason of California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855,
inclusive.
Guarantor waives all rights and any defenses arising out of an election of
remedies by Lender even though that the election of remedies, such as a
non-judicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation,
has destroyed Guarantor's rights of subrogation and reimbursement against
Borrower by operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure
or otherwise.
Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that Guarantor may have because
Borrower's obligation is secured by real property. This means among other
things: (N) Lender may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any
real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower. (0) If Lender
forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower: (1) the amount
of Borrower's obligation may be reduced only by the price for which the
collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more
than the sale price. (2) Lender may collect from Guarantor even if Lender, by
foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor
may have to collect from Borrower. This is an unconditional and irrevocable
waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because Borrower's
obligation is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but
are not limited to, any rights and defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d,
or 726 of the Code of Civil Procedure.
Guarantor understands and agrees that the foregoing waivers are unconditional
and irrevocable waivers of substantive rights and defenses to which Guarantor
might otherwise be entitled under state and federal law. The rights and defenses
waived include, without limitation, those provided by California laws of
suretyship and guaranty, anti-deficiency laws, and the Uniform Commercial -Code.
Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor has provided these waivers of rights and
defenses with the intention that they be fully relied upon by Lender. Guarantor
further understands and agrees that this Guaranty is a separate and independent
contract between Guarantor and Lender, given for full and ample consideration,
and is enforceable on its own terms. Until all of the Indebtedness is paid in
full, Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy Guarantor may have
against the Borrower or any other guarantor, surety, or other person, and
further, Guarantor waives any right to participate in any collateral for the
Indebtedness now or hereafter held by Lender.
Guarantor's Understanding With Respect To Waivers. 'Guarantor warrants and
agrees that each of the waivers set forth above is made with Guarantor's full
knowledge of its significance and consequences and that, under the
circumstances, the waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or
law. If any such waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or
public policy, such waiver shall be effective only to the extent permitted by
law or public policy.
Subordination of Borrower's Debts to Guarantor. Guarantor agrees that the
Indebtedness, whether now existing or hereafter created, shall be superior to
any claim that 'Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against Borrower,
whether or not Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby expressly
subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any account
whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against Borrower.
In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the assets of Borrower,
through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by voluntary
liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the payment of
the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and shall be
first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness, Guarantor does hereby assign to
Lender all claims which it may have or acquire against Borrower or against any
assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower, provided however, that such
assignment shall be effective only for the 'purpose of assuring to Lender full
payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If Lender so requests, any notes or

credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing any debts or obligations of
Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend that the same are subject to
this Guaranty and shall be delivered to Lender. Guarantor agrees, and Lender is
hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor, from time to time to file financing
statements and continuation statements and to execute documents and to take such
other actions as Lender deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and
enforce its rights under this Guaranty.
Miscellaneous Provisions. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Guaranty:
AMENDMENTS. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes the
entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set forth in
this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty shall be effective
unless given in writing and signed by the party or parties sought to be charged
or bound by the alteration or amendment.
ARBITRATION. Borrower and Guarantor and Lender agree that all disputes, claims,
and controversies between them whether individual, joint, or class in nature,
arising from this Guaranty or otherwise, including without limitation contract
and tort disputes, shall be arbitrated pursuant to the Rules of the American
Arbitration Association in effect at the time the claim is filed, upon request
of either party. No act to take or dispose of any Collateral shall constitute a
waiver of this arbitration agreement or be prohibited by this arbitration
agreement. This includes, without limitation, obtaining injunctive relief or a
temporary restraining order; invoking a power of sale under any deed of trust or
mortgage; obtaining a writ of attachment or imposition of a receiver; or
exercising any rights relating to personal property, including taking or
disposing of such property with or without judicial process pursuant to Article
9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Any disputes, claims, or controversies
concerning the lawfulness or reasonableness of any act, or exercise of any
right, concerning any Collateral, including any claim to rescind, reform, or
otherwise modify any agreement relating to the Collateral, shall also be
arbitrated, provided however that no arbitrator shall have the right or the
power to enjoin or restrain any act of any party! Borrower and Guarantor and
Lender agree that in the event of an action for judicial foreclosure pursuant to
California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726, or any similar provision in any
other state, the commencement of such an action will not constitute a waiver of
the right to arbitrate and the court shall refer, to arbitration as much of such
action, including counterclaims, as lawfully may be referred to arbitration.
Judgment upon any award rendered by any arbitrator may be entered in any court
having jurisdiction. Nothing in this Guaranty shall preclude any party from
seeking equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction. The statute of
limitations, estoppel, waiver, laches, and similar doctrines which would
otherwise be applicable in an action brought by a party shall be applicable in
any arbitration proceeding, and the commencement of an arbitration proceeding
shall be deemed the commencement of an action for these purposes. The Federal
Arbitration Act shall apply to the construction, interpretation, and enforcement
of this arbitration provision.
ATTORNEYS' FEES; EXPENSES. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender's
costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and Lender's legal
expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty. Lender
may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this Guaranty, and Guarantor shall
pay the costs and expenses of such enforcement. Costs and expenses include
Lender's attorneys' fees and legal expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit,
including attorneys' fees and legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings
(including efforts to modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction),
appeals, and any anticipated post-judgment collection services. Guarantor also
shall pay all court costs and such additional fees as may be directed by the
court.
CAPTION HEADINGS. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience purposes
only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this
Guaranty.
GOVERNING LAW. This Guaranty will be governed by federal law applicable to
Lender and, to the extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of the State of
California without regard to its conflicts of law provisions.
CHOICE OF VENUE. If there is a lawsuit, Guarantor agrees upon Lender's request
to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Los Angeles County, State of
California.
INTEGRATION. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully
understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity to be
advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the Guaranty
fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol evidence is not required to
interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby indemnifies and holds
Lender harmless from all losses, claims, damages, and costs (including Lender's
attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of any breach by
Guarantor of the warranties, representations and agreements of this paragraph.
INTERPRETATION. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or Guarantor,
then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be deemed to have
been used in the plural where the context and construction so require; and where
there is more than one Borrower named in this Guaranty or when this Guaranty is
executed by more than one Guarantor, the words "Borrower" and "Guarantor"
respectively shall mean all and any one or more of them. The words "Guarantor,"
"Borrower," and "Lender" include the heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees
of each of them. If a court finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not
valid or should not be enforced, that fact by itself will not mean that the rest
of this 'Guaranty will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce
the rest of the provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty
may be found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of Borrower or
Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or
similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers of
Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers, or
other agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any indebtedness
made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be
guaranteed under this Guaranty.
NOTICES. Any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given in
writing, and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be effective
when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile (unless
otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally recognized
overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United States mail, as
first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid, directed to the
addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty. All revocation notices by
Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery to Lender as
provided in the section of this Guaranty entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any
party may change its address for notices under this Guaranty by giving formal
written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice
is to change the party's address. For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep
Lender informed at all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise
provided or required by law, if there is more than one Guarantor, any notice
given by Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
NO WAIVER BY LENDER. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under
this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No
delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as
a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of
this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender's right
otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision
of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between
Lender and Guarantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of
any of Guarantor's obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the
consent of Lender is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent
by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be
granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
