(“Maker”), DestinationRx, Inc., DRX Acquisition Company, Inc., the Principal Stockholders (as defined therein) and the Representative (as defined therein) (the “Merger Agreement”), Maker issued to the Representative (on behalf of the Stockholders) a subordinated promissory note (the “Note”) in the principal amount of $3,000,000 as may be adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Note.
B. To induce Payee to accept the Note, Guarantors have agreed with Payee to unconditionally guaranty the prompt payment of principal (subject to Section1(c)) provided for in the Note pursuant to the provisions thereof.
C. Guarantors own direct or indirect interests in Maker, and will benefit from the acceptance of the Note by Payee. To further induce Guarantors, the Payee has agreed that all interest otherwise payable under the Note shall be paid to the Guarantors as set forth in Section 1(c).
D. Guarantors have agreed to give such guaranty to Payee as provided herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and for the purpose of inducing Payee to accept the Note, Guarantors agree as follows:
