prompt payment when due or at any time thereafter of any and all
indebtedness or obligations upon which the Borrower now is or may
hereafter, at any time and from time to time, and for any one or more
purposes, become obligated or bound to said Bank, of every kind and
character, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, and whether such
indebtedness is from time to time reduced and thereafter increased or
entirely extinguished and thereafter reincurred, or whether said
obligations arise with our without notice to Guarantor, and whether by
reason of loans, overdrafts or other extensions of credit made by or with
the consent of said Borrower, together with the unpaid accrued interest
thereon.
2. This Guaranty, is, and is intended to be, an absolute, unconditional and
continuing guaranty which shall not be affected by any act or thing
whatsoever except as herein provided, and which shall be independent of and
in addition to any other guaranty, endorsement or collateral held by Bank
with respect to any or all of the indebtedness to the Bank covered hereby.
This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect as to any indebtedness
owed by Borrower to Bank at any time even though the initial credit or any
subsequent credit extended has been paid. The undersigned, or any of the
undersigned, may give to any Bank officer notice in writing of cancellation
of this Guaranty, which cancellation notice is effective only when
acknowledged in writing by the Bank officer to whom given. The obligation
of any of the undersigned or any other Guarantor who shall not have given
notice of cancellation shall, as to all indebtedness created, incurred or
arising after the giving of such notice, remain and continues as if the
Guarantors who have not given notice of cancellation had been the only
persons signing this Guaranty. It is understood however, that no
termination or cancellation of said Guaranty, whether by lapse of time or
as a result of notice, shall relieve the parties hereto of any liability or
any indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed or promised by the Bank
prior to the time of said termination or cancellation.
3. No modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty
shall be effective unless in writing and subscribed by a duly authorized
officer of Bank. The Bank shall have the right, without affecting the
undersigned's obligations hereunder, and without demand or notice, from
time to time: (a) to release any one or more of the undersigned or any
other Guarantor in whole or in part without in any way impairing or
affecting its right against the other or others; (b) to extend, increase,
renew, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment, (with or
without the use of new notes or amendments) the terms of or the interest on
any part or all of the indebtedness; (c) to receive, exchange or release

part thereof; and (d) to collect first and to exercise its rights of
setoffs against any asset of Borrower for any indebtedness of Borrower to
the Bank not covered by this Guaranty, if any such indebtedness shall exist
because of limitations of paragraph 6. Subrogation rights or any other
rights of any kind of the undersigned against the Borrower, if any, shall

Guaranty and of any of the Borrower's transactions, including demand,
notice or protest of any note, draft or other items on which said Borrower
may be bound or liable for payment.

this obligation against any one or more of them whenever the indebtedness
hereby secured becomes due or at any time thereafter without being first
required to proceed against the principal obligor or to realize upon any
collateral security for the debt. The failure of any other person to sign
this or another Guaranty shall not release any of the undersigned and
discontinuance of this or another Guaranty as to one of the undersigned
shall not operate as a discontinuance as to any other Guarantor.

shall continue in full force and effect against his estate as to all
indebtedness which shall have been created or incurred by the Borrower or
committed or promised by the Bank (whether evidenced by notes, executed
before or after such death or in any other manner) prior to the time when
the Bank shall have received notice in writing of such death; and the
executor or administrator of such estate shall be obligated and authorized
to pay such debt and, if acceptable to the Bank, to execute renewal
guaranties or endorsements, from time to time, with respect to any unpaid
portion. Further, this Guaranty shall continue in full force as a Guaranty
by the surviving Guarantors as if such Guarantors had been the only persons
who guaranteed said indebtedness.
6. Unless specific indebtedness is described, in the space below, the
indebtedness covered hereby shall have the unlimited meaning provided in
paragraphs 1 and 2; but if the space below is filled in, such covered
