================================================================================
AMOUNT OF GUARANTY. The amount of this Guaranty is Unlimited.
CONTINUING UNLIMITED GUARANTY. For the good and valuable consideration, METRETEK
TECHNOLOGIES, INC. ("Guarantor") absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and
promises to pay to First National Bank of
Colorado ("Lender") or its order, in
legal tender of the United States of America, the indebtedness (as that term is
defined below) of SOUTHERN FLOW COMPANIES, INC.; and POWERSECURE, INC.
("Borrower"), or either or any of them, to Lender on the terms and conditions
set forth in this Guaranty. Under this Guaranty, the liability of Guarantor is
unlimited and the obligations of Guarantor are continuing.
INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness guaranteed by this Guaranty includes
any and all of Borrower's indebtedness to Lender and is used in the most
comprehensive sense and means and includes any and all of Borrower's
liabilities, obligations and debts to Lender, now existing or hereinafter
incurred or created, including, without limitation, all loans, advances,
interest, costs, debts, overdraft indebtedness, credit card indebtedness, lease
obligations, other obligations, and liabilities of Borrower, or any of them, and
any present or future judgments against Borrower, or any of them; and whether
any such Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due,
absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined;
whether Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily
or secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness
may be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason
whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be
voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra xxxxx, or otherwise.
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 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 advances or 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 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. This Guaranty will continue to
bind Guarantor for all Indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender
prior to receipt of Guarantor's written notice of revocation, including any
extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All
renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness
granted after Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and,
specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall
bind Guarantor's estate as to 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. IT IS
ANTICIPATED THAT FLUCTUATIONS MAY OCCUR IN THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF INDEBTEDNESS
COVERED BY THIS GUARANTY, AND GUARANTOR SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES
THAT REDUCTIONS IN THE AMOUNT OF INDEBTEDNESS, EVEN TO ZERO DOLLARS ($0.00),
PRIOR TO GUARANTOR'S WRITTEN REVOCATION OF THIS GUARANTY 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 GUARANTEED
INDEBTEDNESS REMAINS UNPAID AND EVEN THOUGH THE INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED MAY FROM
TIME TO TIME BE ZERO DOLLARS ($0.00).
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
in any manner Lender may choose; (E) to determine how, when and what application
of payments and credits shall be made on the Indebtedness; (F) to apply such
security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including without
limitation, any nonjudicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling
security agreement or deed of trust, as Lender in its discretion

================================================================================
may determine; (G) to sell, transfer, assign or grant participations in all or
any part of the Indebtedness; and (H) to assign or transfer this Guaranty in
whole or in part.
GUARANTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Guarantor represents and warrants to
Lender that (A) no representations or agreements of any kind have been made to
Guarantor which would limit or qualify in any way the terms of this Guaranty;
(B) this Guaranty is executed at Borrower's request and not at the request of
Lender; (C) Guarantor has full power, right and authority to enter into this

written consent of Lender, sell, lease, assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer,
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor's assets, or any
interest therein; (F) upon Lender's request, Guarantor will provide to Lender
financial and credit information in form acceptable to Lender, and all such
financial information which currently has been, and all future financial
information which will be provided to Lender is and will be true and correct in
all material respects and fairly present Guarantor's financial condition as of
the dates the financial information is provided; (G) no material adverse change
has occurred in Guarantor's financial condition since the date of the most
recent financial statements provided to Lender and no event has occurred which
may materially adversely affect Guarantor's financial condition; (H) no
litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action
(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; and (J) Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from
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 (A) to continue lending money or to extend other
credit to Borrower; (B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of
any kind, including notice of any nonpayment of the Indebtedness or of any
nonpayment related to any collateral, or notice of any action or nonaction on
the part of Borrower, Lender; any surety, endorser, or other guarantor in
connection with the Indebtedness or in connection with the creation of new or
additional loans or obligations; (C) to resort for payment or to proceed
directly or at once against any person, including Borrower or any other
guarantor; (D) to proceed directly against or exhaust any collateral held by
Lender from Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person; (E) to give
notice of the terms, time, and place of any public or private sale of personal
property security held by Lender from Borrower or to comply with any other
applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (F) to pursue any other
remedy within Lender's power; or (G) to commit any act or omission of any kind,
or at any time, with respect to any matter whatsoever.
Guarantor also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A)
any "one action" or " anti-deficiency" law or any other law which may prevent
Lender from bringing any action, including a claim for deficiency, against
Guarantor, before or after Lender's commencement or completion of any
foreclosure action, either judicially or by exercise of a power of sale; (B) any
election of remedies by Lender which destroys or otherwise adversely affects
Guarantor's subrogation rights or Guarantor's rights to proceed against Borrower
for reimbursement, including without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor
may suffer by reason of any law limiting, qualifying, or discharging the
Indebtedness; (C) any disability of other defense of Borrower, of any other
guarantor, or of any other person, or by reason of the cessation of Borrower's
liability from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full in legal tender,
of the Indebtedness; (D) any right to claim discharge of the Indebtedness on the
basis of unjustified impairment of any collateral for the Indebtedness; (E) any
statute of limitations, if at any time any action or suit brought by Lender
against Guarantor is commenced, there is outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower to
Lender which is not barred by any applicable statute of limitations; or (F) any
defenses given to guarantors at law or in equity other than actual payment and
performance of the Indebtedness. If payment is made by Borrower, whether
voluntarily or otherwise, or by any third party, on the Indebtedness and
thereafter Lender is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's
trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors, the indebtedness shall be
considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor further waives and agrees not to assert or claim at any time any time
any deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any claim of
setoff, counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such
claim, demand or rights may be asserted by the Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.
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.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Lender reserves a
right of setoff in all Guarantor's amounts with Lender (whether checking,
savings, or some other account). This includes all accounts Guarantor holds
jointly with someone else and all accounts Guarantor may open in the future.
However, this does not include any XXX or Xxxxx accounts, or any trust accounts
for which setoff would be prohibited by law. Guarantor authorizes Lender, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, to hold these funds if there is a default,
and Lender may apply the funds in these accounts to pay what Guarantor owes
under the term of this Guaranty.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, 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 of Borrower to Lender.
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
COMMERCIAL GUARANTY

================================================================================
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 part of
this Guaranty:
AMENDMENTS. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents,
constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to

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. 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 reasonable costs and expenses, including Lender's attorney's
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 reasonable 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
Colorado without regard to its conflicts of law provisions.
This Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the State of
Colorado.
CHOICE OF VENUE. If there is a lawsuit, Guarantor agrees upon Lender's
request to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Boulder County,
State of
Colorado.
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 parole
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 when 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 action
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.
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Subject to any limitations stated in this
Guaranty on transfer of Guarantor's interest, this Guaranty shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors
and assigns.
