WHEREAS, the Guarantor owns a one hundred (100%) percent membership interest in the Buyer; and

WHEREAS, Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000) of the total consideration to be paid by Buyer for the Acquired Assets (the “Purchase Price”) is payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of a certain Promissory Note of even date herewith made by the Buyer and delivered to the Seller (the “Note”); and

WHEREAS, the Guarantor deems it to be to its financial advantage and benefit to execute, deliver and perform under this Guaranty; and

WHEREAS, the Guarantor will materially benefit from the transactions contemplated under the Purchase Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and in order to induce Seller to extend credit to Buyer under the Note, Guarantor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Seller as follows:

1.       Obligations Guaranteed.

(a)       Guarantor unconditionally guarantees to Seller the prompt and unconditional payment of the Note and any interest thereon, whether now or hereafter advanced, as the same shall become due and payable under the Note, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, and any and all sums of money that, at the time, may have become due and payable under the provisions of the Note or this Guaranty (collectively, “Loan Documents”), as well as, without limitation, all other loans, advances, indebtedness, notes, and liabilities (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

(b)        Guarantor unconditionally guarantees to Seller payment in full of any and all expenses that may be paid or incurred by Seller in the collection of all or any portion of the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder or the exercise or enforcement of any one or more of the other rights, powers, privileges, remedies and interests of Seller under the Loan Documents including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees.

2.       Unconditional Guaranty. This Guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable, unconditional, present and continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection and is in no way conditioned or contingent upon any attempt to enforce Seller’s rights against Buyer or to collect from Buyer or upon any other condition or contingency; accordingly, Seller shall have the right to proceed against Guarantor immediately upon any default by Buyer under the Note without taking any prior action or proceeding to enforce the Loan Documents or any of them. Until such time as the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full, Guarantor agrees not to assert any claim, remedy or other right which the Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against Buyer or any other person obligated to pay Guaranteed Obligations arising out of the creation or performance of the Guarantor’s obligation under this Guaranty, including, without limitation, any right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnification, exoneration, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy the Guarantor may have against Buyer, collateral, or other party obligated for Buyer’s debts, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law. It is expressly understood that the waivers and agreements of Guarantor constitute additional and cumulative benefits given to Seller for its security and as an inducement for its extension of credit to Buyer. Seller may at any time and from time to time take any and/or all actions and enforce all rights and remedies available to Seller hereunder or under applicable law to collect from Guarantor any amounts then due and payable hereunder by Guarantor and/or to cause Guarantor to fulfill his, her or its obligations hereunder.

3.       Liability Unimpaired. Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall in no way be limited or impaired by, and Guarantor hereby consents to and agrees to be bound by, any amendment or modification of the provisions of any of the Loan Documents, or any other instrument or agreement made to or with Seller, by Buyer or Guarantor, or any Person (as hereafter defined) who succeeds to Buyer’s interests thereunder. In addition, to the furthest extent permitted by law, Guarantor’s liability hereunder shall in no way be limited or impaired by (i) any extensions of time for performance required by any of said documents, (ii) any sale, assignment or foreclosure of the Note, (iii) any exculpatory provision in any of said documents limiting Seller’s rights to a deficiency judgment against Buyer, (iv) the release of Buyer or any other person from performance or observance of any of the agreements, covenants, terms or conditions contained in any of said documents including any other guarantor under this or any other guaranty, for any reason, including by Seller’s election, by operation of law, or otherwise, by operation of law or otherwise, (v) Seller’s failure to file any UCC financing statements (or Seller’s improper recording or filing of same) or to otherwise perfect, protect, secure or insure any security interest or lien given as security for the Note, (vi) the invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability, in whole or in part, of any of the Loan Documents, this Guaranty or any other instrument or agreement executed or delivered to Seller in connection with the Note, except to the extent that there is a final adjudication by a court of competent jurisdiction of a valid defense to Buyer’s obligations under the Loan Documents to payment of the indebtedness thereunder, (vii) the material inaccuracy of any of the representations and warranties made by Buyer in the Loan Documents, or (viii) any other action or circumstance whatsoever that constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, a legal or equitable discharge or defense (except full payment and satisfaction) of Buyer for its obligations under any of the Loan Documents or of Guarantor under this Guaranty; and, in any such case, whether with or without notice to Guarantor and with or without consideration. As used herein, “Person” shall mean any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, estate, trust, unincorporated association, any other entity, any federal, state, county or municipal government or any bureau, department or agency thereof, and any fiduciary acting in such capacity on behalf of any of the foregoing.

4.       Preservation of Loan Documents. Guarantor will cause Buyer to maintain and preserve the enforceability of the Loan Documents as the same may be modified and will not permit Buyer to take or to fail to take actions of any kind which might be the basis for a claim that Guarantor has a defense to Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.

5.       Certain Waivers. To the furthest extent permitted by law, Guarantor (i) waives any right or claim of right to cause a marshalling of Buyer’s assets or to cause Seller to proceed against any of the security for the Guaranteed Obligations before proceeding against Guarantor, (ii) agrees that any payments required to be made by Guarantor hereunder shall become due on demand in accordance with the terms of Paragraph 1 hereof and without presentment to Buyer, demand for payment or protest, or notice of non-payment or protest, and (iii) except as hereinafter provided, expressly waives and relinquishes all rights and remedies accorded by applicable law to guarantors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the furthest extent permitted by law, Guarantor hereby waives all rights (x) to participate in any claim or remedy Seller may now or hereafter have against Buyer or in any collateral that Seller now has or hereafter may acquire for the obligations guaranteed hereby and (y) except as provided in Section 2 hereof, to contribution, indemnification, set-off, exoneration or reimbursement, whether from Buyer, any guarantor, or any other person now or hereafter primarily or secondarily liable for any of Buyer’s obligations to Seller, and whether arising by contract or operation of law or otherwise by reason of Guarantor’s execution, delivery or performance of this Guaranty.

6.       Reinstatement. This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated automatically, as the case may be, if at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or otherwise must be restored or returned by Seller or any affiliate (whether as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise) upon or in connection with the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of Buyer, Guarantor or any other person, or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, Buyer, Guarantor or any other person or for a substantial part of Buyer’s, Guarantor’s or any of such other person’s property, as the case may be, or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. Guarantor further agrees that in the event any such payment is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all costs and reasonable expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by or on behalf of Seller in defending or enforcing such continuance or reinstatement, as the case may be, shall constitute costs of enforcement, the payment of which is guaranteed by Guarantor pursuant to Paragraph 1 above.
