Notwithstanding any other provision hereof or of any other document involving a transfer, assignment, financing, granting of a security interest, or otherwise, any reference to this Master Lease Agreement shall mean, shall deemed to mean and shall be limited to, this Master Lease Agreement as the same is incorporated under any particularly identified specific Equipment Schedule(s).

2. SELECTION OF EQUIPMENT; ACCEPTANCE AND DELIVERY OF EQUIPMENT. Lessee will select the type, quantity and supplier of each item of Equipment designated in the appropriate Schedule, and in reliance thereon such Equipment will then be ordered by Lessor from such supplier or Lessor will accept an assignment of any existing purchase order therefore.

identifying data with respect to the Equipment. In addition to the other amounts due and owing hereunder, Lessee shall pay for all transportation, insurance, rigging, drayage and any other charges with respect to delivery and installation of the Equipment. Lessee will provide a suitable place of installation for use of the Equipment as specified by the manufacturer.

	(f)
	Lessor acknowledges that any manufacturer’s and/or seller’s warranties are for the benefit of both Lessor and Lessee.

Lessee also shall provide and maintain at its sole cost and expense comprehensive general all-risk liability insurance including but not limited to, product liability coverage, insuring Lessor and Lessee, with a severability of interest endorsement, or its equivalent, against any and all loss or liability for all damages, either to persons or property or otherwise, which might result from or happen in connection with the condition, use or operation of the Equipment, with such limits and with an insurer satisfactory to Lessor, but not less than $1,000,000.00 and naming Lessor and/or each of its assigns as an additional insured. Each policy shall expressly provide that said insurance as to Lessor and/or its assigns shall not be invalidated by any act, omission, or neglect of Lessee and cannot be canceled without 30 days prior written notice to Lessor and/or its assigns. As to each policy, Lessee shall furnish to Lessor and/or each of its assigns a certificate or certificates of insurance from the insurer(s) on the Commencement Date and thereafter as requested by Lessor and/or its assigns, in form and containing such matters as reasonably required by Lessor. Neither Lessor nor its assigns shall have any obligation to ascertain the existence of or provide any insurance coverage for the Equipment or for Lessee’s benefit. Any failure of Lessor to insist on Lessee’s provision of a certificate of insurance shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights hereunder and shall not excuse or release Lessee’ of its obligation to procure and provide such insurance. It is further understood and agreed that the insurance coverage provided by Lessee shall operate independent and apart from any indemnity obligations imposed on Lessee under this agreement. Lessee shall keep the Equipment free and clear of all levies, liens, and encumbrances. Lessee shall pay all charges and taxes (local, state, and federal) which may now or hereafter be imposed upon the ownership, leasing, rental, sale, purchase, possession, or use of the Equipment, excluding, however, all taxes on or measured by Lessor’s net income. If Lessee fails to procure or maintain said insurance or to pay said charges or taxes, Lessor shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to effect such insurance, or pay such charges or taxes. In that event, Lessor shall notify

Lessee of such payment and Lessee shall repay to Lessor the cost thereof within 15 days after such notice is mailed to Lessee. Lessor shall file personal property returns with respect to the Equipment, and Lessee shall pay to Lessor, in advance and at the time(s) required by Lessor, the taxes Lessor anticipates will be due during the year. Lessee acknowledges that Lessor may require a monthly payment of such anticipated taxes and any deficiency shall be paid by Lessee upon demand by Lessor.
15. INDEMNIFICATION. Lessee shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Lessor, and Lessor’s officers, directors, representatives and employees from and against all losses, damages, injuries, death claims, demands and expenses, of whatsoever nature (i) arising out of the manufacture, purchase, ownership, delivery, lease, possession, use, misuse, condition, repair, storage or operation of any Equipment, regardless of where, how and by whom operated; (ii) arising out of negligence, tort, warranty, strict liability or any other cause of action with respect to the leased Equipment; (iii) arising out of any encumbrance being asserted against the Equipment; and (iv) arising out of the assessment, payment, non-payment or partial payment of any sales, use or other taxes pertaining to the equipment. Such indemnification shall survive the expiration, cancellation, or termination of this Lease. IT IS THE EXPRESS INTENT OF THE LESSOR AND LESSEE THAT THIS INDMENITY PROVISION SHALL COVER AND INCLUDE ANY CLAIMS ASSERTING THAT ANY PERSON TO BE INDEMNIFIED HEREUNDER WAS NEGLIGENT IN WHOLE OR INPART OR OTHERWISE CAUSED OR CONTRIBUTED TO THE CAUSE OF THE LOSS, DAMAGES, INJURIES, DEATH, OR EXPENSES.
16. ASSIGNMENT BY LESSEE PROHIBITED. Lessee shall keep the Equipment free and clear of all claims, liens, and encumbrances, except for those placed thereon by Lessor. Without the prior written consent of Lessor, Lessee shall not assign or otherwise encumber this Lease, the Equipment or any of its rights hereunder or sublease or lend the Equipment. Upon any permitted assignment or sublease, Lessee shall sign and deliver to Lessor, or any assignee of Lessor, at Lessee’s expense, such documentation as Lessor or such assignee may require, including but not limited to documentation to evidence and put third parties on notice of Lessor’s or its assignee’s interest in the Equipment. No permitted assignment or sublease shall relieve Lessee of any of its obligations hereunder, which obligations shall remain those of a principal and not a surety or guarantor.
17. ASSIGNMENT BY LESSOR. Lessor may sell or assign its rights and interests or grant a security interest in this Lease and the Equipment for purposes of securing loans to Lessor or otherwise and may also sell and assign its title and interest as owner of the Equipment and/or as Lessor under this Lease. Lessee hereby (a) consents to such sales or assignments; (b) agrees to promptly sign and deliver such further acknowledgments and other documents as may be reasonably requested by Lessor to

20. REMEDIES. If an event of default occurs under this Lease or under any other Master Lease Agreement, Equipment Schedule, Lease or other agreement between Lessee and/or its affiliates and Lessor and/or its affiliates or any other liability, debt, or other duty of Lessee and/or its affiliates to Lessor and/or its affiliates, whether now existing or later incurred, matured or unmatured, direct or contingent, and any renewals, extensions, and substitutions of the same, then Lessor, with or without notice to Lessee (except as set forth below), shall have the right to exercise any one or more of the following remedies, concurrently or separately, in any order and without any election of remedies being deemed to have been made:
 
		
	(a)
	Lessor may enter upon Lessee’s premises and without any court order or other process of law may repossess and remove the Equipment, or render the Equipment unusable without removal, either with or without notice to Lessee (Lessee hereby waives any trespass or right of action for damages by reason of such entry, removal, or disabling, any such repossession shall not constitute a termination of this Lease unless Lessor so notifies Lessee in writing);


		
	(b)
	Lessor may require Lessee, at Lessee’s expense, to return the Equipment in good repair, ordinary wear and tear resulting from proper use thereof alone excepted, by delivering it, packed and ready for shipment, to such place or carrier as Lessor may specify;

	(e)
	Lessor may declare as immediately due and payable and recover from Lessee, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty (Lessor and Lessee agreeing that such liquidated damages are reasonable in light of the anticipated harm to be caused to Lessor by any such event of default, including, without limitation, the loss of tax benefits), the sum of the following amounts (such sum being referred to herein as “Lessor’s Loss”): (i) all unpaid rents and other payments due under this Lease then accrued, plus (ii) the remaining rents through the end of the Term, plus (iii) the Residual Value in the Equipment, which shall be determined by Lessor in its sole discretion, less (iv) the fair market value, which shall be determined by Lessor in its sole discretion, of any item of Equipment, if any, Lessor in its sole discretion accepts as a return or repossesses.

	(f)
	Lessor may recover all costs, expenses and damages relating to this Lease and the event of default, including, without limitation, any collection agency and attorney’s fees and expenses; Lessor may recover interest on the unpaid balance of Lessor’s Loss plus any amounts recoverable under clauses (e) (f) and (g) of this paragraph 20 from the date it becomes payable until fully paid at the rate of the lesser of 18% per annum or the highest rate permitted by law.


		
	(g)
	Lessor may pursue any other remedy available at law, by statute or in equity, including, without limitation, any rights and remedies available to lessors under Chapter 2A, whether or not Chapter 2A is applicable to this Lease.


Upon return or repossession of the Equipment, Lessor may at its sole discretion sell or lease each item of Equipment in such manner and upon such terms as Lessor may in its sole discretion determine. The proceeds of such sale or lease shall be applied to reimburse Lessor for Lessor’s Loss and any additional amounts due under clauses (e), (f) or (g).
No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to Lessor is exclusive of any other right or remedy herein, or by law or by equity provided or permitted, but each shall be cumulative of every other right or remedy given herein or now or hereafter existing by law or equity or by statute or otherwise, and may be enforced concurrently therewith or from time to time. No single or partial exercise by Lessor of any right or remedy hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise of any other right or remedy.
21. LIMITED PREARRANGED AMENDMENTS; LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY. In the event it is necessary to amend the terms of this Lease or the terms of any Schedule to reflect a change in one or more of the following conditions: (a) Lessor’s actual cost of procuring the Equipment, or (b) Lessor’s actual cost of providing the Equipment to Lessee, or (c) a change in rent payments as a result of (a) or (b) above, or (d) description of the Equipment, then Lessee agrees that any such amendment shall be described in a letter from Lessor to Lessee, and unless within 15 days after the date of such letter Lessee objects in writing to Lessor, this Lease shall be deemed amended and such amendments shall be incorporated in this Lease herein as if originally set forth. Lessee grants to Lessor a specific power of attorney for Lessor to use and hereby authorizes Lessor as follows: (1) Lessor may sign and/or file on Lessee’s behalf or on Lessor’s behalf any document Lessor deems necessary to perfect or protect Lessor’s interest in the Equipment, including a UCC-1 Financing Statement or any other document pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code; and (2) Lessor may sign, endorse or negotiate for Lessor’s benefit any instrument representing proceeds from any policy of insurance covering the Equipment.

22. MULTIPLE LESSEES. Lessor may, with the consent of any one of the Lessees hereunder modify, extend, or change any of the terms hereof without the consent or knowledge of the others, without in any way releasing, waiving, or impacting any right granted to Lessor against the others.

Waiver by Lessor of any provision hereof in one instance shall not constitute a waiver as to any other instance.
25. SEVERABILITY. This Lease is intended to constitute a valid and enforceable legal instrument, and no provision of this Lease that may be deemed unenforceable shall in any way invalidate any other provision or provisions hereof, all of which shall remain in full force and effect.
26. ADDITIONAL SECURITY. In the event that this Master Lease Agreement or any Lease entered into pursuant to this Master Lease Agreement, is not deemed to be a true lease under Chapter 2A, then solely in that event and for that limited purpose, (a) it shall be deemed a security agreement and, in that regard, Lessee hereby grants to Lessor a purchase money security interest in the Equipment, and all accessions, substitutions and replacements thereto, and all of Lessee’s interest therein, and all proceeds and products thereof to secure Lessee’s prompt payment and performance as and when due of all of Lessee’s obligations and indebtedness to Lessor under this Lease or under any other Master Lease Agreement, Equipment Schedule, Lease or other agreement between Lessee and/or its affiliates and Lessor and/or its affiliates or any other liability, debt, or other duty of Lessee and/or its affiliates to Lessor and/or its affiliates, whether now existing or later incurred, matured or unmatured, direct or contingent, and any renewals, extensions, and substitutions of the same, and (b) the aggregate of all consideration that constitutes interest under applicable law that is taken, reserved, contracted for, charged or received hereunder or under any other agreements or otherwise in connection with this Lease shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited on this note by the holder hereof (or if such obligations shall have been paid in full, refunded to Lessee ); and in the event of an event of default hereunder, or in the event of any required or

27. FINANCIAL REPORTS. Upon Lessor’s request, Lessee and Guarantor agrees to furnish within sixty (60) days after Lessee’s and Guarantor’s first three fiscal quarters and within one hundred twenty (120) days after each of its fiscal year-ends during the Term of this Lease, its balance sheet as of the end of each such period and the related statements of income and retained earnings. In the case of year-end statements, the reports shall be audited, if available, and in any event reviewed, by Lessee’s and Guarantor’s then acting certified public accounting firm.

Lessee agrees that this will be deemed

executed in Jefferson County, Texas and is performable in Jefferson County, Texas and should any legal action, suit, or proceeding be initiated by any party to this Agreement with regard to, or arising out of, this Lease or the Equipment covered hereby, such action shall be brought only in the Courts of applicable jurisdiction for the State of Texas located in Jefferson County, Texas, and all parties consent to the jurisdiction of such Courts as to all such actions. LESSEE HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY MATTER ARISING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS LEASE.


31. TAX INDEMNITY. Lessee represents warrants and covenants as follows:
 
		
	(a)
	This Lease shall be a lease for federal and state income tax purposes. Lessee shall be treated as the lessee of the Equipment for federal and applicable state income tax purposes and Lessor shall be treated as the purchaser, owner, lessor and original user of the Equipment for federal and applicable state income tax purposes and shall be entitled to such deductions, credits and other benefits as are provided an owner of property (the Tax Benefits), including but not limited to:


		
	(i)
	the maximum depreciation deductions with respect to each item of Equipment as provided by Section 167(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code ), determined under Section 168 of the Code by using the applicable depreciation method, the applicable recovery period, and the applicable convention, all as may be specified on the applicable Schedule for the Equipment, and Lessor shall also be entitled to corresponding state depreciation deductions; and


		
	(ii)
	For purposes of determining depreciation deductions, the Equipment shall have an income tax basis equal to Lessor’s cost for the Equipment specified on the applicable Schedule, plus such expenses of the transaction incurred by Lessor as may be included in basis under Section 1012 of the Code, and shall be placed in service (and certified as such by Lessee) by the last business day of the same calendar year in which the Schedule for such Equipment is executed.


		
	(b)
	If, with respect to any item of Equipment, Lessee’s representations, warranties and/or covenants contained herein or in any other agreement or document entered into relating to the Equipment are or are determined to be incorrect and Lessor shall determine that it shall not have the right to claim all or any portion of the Tax Benefits or if all or any portion of the

	Tax Benefits shall be disallowed or recaptured (hereinafter referred to as a Tax Benefit Loss ), then subject to the exceptions set forth below and at the sole discretion of Lessor, Lessee shall, within thirty (30) days after written notice from Lessor that a Tax Benefit Loss has occurred, pay to Lessor at Lessor’s option, either a lump-sum payment or an increase to the remaining monthly payments due under this Lease in an amount which, after taking into account the effects of interest, penalties and additional taxes payable by Lessor as a result of the Tax Benefit Loss and the receipt of payment hereunder, will cause Lessor’s net effective after-tax return over the term of this Lease to equal the net effective after-tax return which would have been available if Lessor had been entitled to the utilization of all the Tax Benefits.




 
		
	(c)
	For purposes hereof a Tax Benefit Loss shall occur upon the earliest of (i) the happening of an event which causes such Tax Benefit Loss, (ii) the payment by Lessor to the Internal Revenue Service or the applicable state revenue office of the tax increase resulting from such Tax Benefit Loss, or (iii) the adjustment of the tax return of Lessor to reflect such Tax Benefit Loss.


		
	(d)
	Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessor shall not be entitled to receive a payment hereunder on account of any Tax Benefit Loss directly attributable to any of the following: (i) any act on the part of Lessor which causes a Tax Benefit Loss; (ii) the failure of Lessor to have sufficient taxable income or tax liability to utilize such Tax Benefits; or (iii) the happening of any other event with respect to Lessor (such as a disqualifying change in Lessor’s business) which causes a Tax Benefit Loss.


		
	(e)
	This paragraph is expressly made for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by Lessor, any person, firm, corporation or other entity to which Lessor transfers title to all or a portion of the Equipment and their successors and assigns (Owner). For purposes hereof, the term Owner shall include an affiliated group (within the meaning of the Code) of which it is a member for any year in which a consolidated income tax return is filed for such affiliated group. Lessee agrees to indemnify and hold any such Owner harmless from any Tax Benefit Loss on the same as if said Owner were the Lessor hereunder. All of Lessor’s rights and privileges arising from the indemnities contained herein shall survive the expiration or other termination of this Lease.

In consideration of any lease, Master Lease Agreement, Equipment Schedule, credit or other financial accommodation, whether accompanying this Guaranty or made separately, now or hereafter extended or made to STABILIS ENERGY SERVICES, LLC (“Debtor”), or any of them, by M/G Finance Company, Ltd. (“Creditor”), and for other valuable consideration, the undersigned CASEY CRENSHAW (“Guarantor”), unconditionally guarantees to Creditor the full and prompt payment and performance when due of any and all Indebtedness, liabilities, debts and other duties of the Debtor to Creditor now existing or later incurred, matured or unmatured, direct or contingent, and any renewals, extensions and substitutions of the same. Guarantor represents and warrants that he/she/it has a direct financial interest in Debtor and that Guarantor will either directly or indirectly benefit from the extension of credit or other financial accommodation made to Debtor. The term “Indebtedness” is used herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all advances, debts, obligations and liabilities of Debtor, or any of them heretofore, now or hereafter made, incurred or created, whether direct, indirect or contingent, voluntary or involuntary and however arising, whether due or to become due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined, including under any loan agreement, note, lease, sale, security agreement, swap, derivative, foreign exchange, hedge, deposit, treasury management or other similar transaction or arrangement, and all modifications, extensions and renewals thereof, and whether Debtor may be liable individually or jointly with others, or whether recovery upon such Indebtedness may be or hereafter become unenforceable.

All guaranties, warranties, representations, covenants and agreements in this Guaranty shall bind the heirs, devisees, executors, administrators, personal representatives, trustees, beneficiaries, conservators, receivers, successors and assigns of Guarantor and shall benefit Creditor, its successors and assigns, and any holder of any part of the Indebtedness. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall be in addition to any obligations of Guarantor under any other guaranties of any liabilities or obligations of the Debtor or any other persons heretofore or hereafter given to Creditor unless said other guaranties are expressly modified or revoked in writing; and this Guaranty shall not, unless expressly herein provided, affect or invalidate any such other guaranties.

(1) Occurrence or discovery of any irregularity, invalidity or unenforceability of any part of the Indebtedness or any defect or deficiency in any part of the Indebtedness, including the unenforceability of any provisions of the instruments or agreements related to the Indebtedness because entering into any such instrument or agreement was ultra vires or because anyone who executed them exceeded their authority.

(n) Failure by Creditor or any other person to notify—or timely notify—Guarantor of any default, event of default or similar event (however denominated) under the Indebtedness, any renewal, extension, supplementing, modification, rearrangement, amendment, restatement, replacement, cancellation, rescission, revocation or reinstatement (whether or not material) or assignment of any part of the Indebtedness, release or exchange of any security, any other action taken or not taken by Creditor against Debtor or any direct or indirect security for any part of the Indebtedness or other obligation of Debtor, any new agreement between Creditor and Debtor or any other event or circumstance. Creditor has no duty or obligation to give Guarantor any notice of any kind under any circumstances whatsoever with respect to or in connection with the Indebtedness.

4. OBLIGATIONS JOINT AND SEVERAL; SEPARATE ACTIONS; WAIVER OF STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS; REINSTATEMENT OF LIABILITY. The obligations hereunder are joint and several and independent of the obligations of Debtor, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against Guarantor whether action is brought against the Debtor or any other person, or whether the Debtor or any other person is joined in any such action or actions. Guarantor acknowledges that this Guaranty is absolute and unconditional, there are no conditions precedent to the effectiveness of this Guaranty, and this Guaranty is in full force and effect and is binding on Guarantor as of the date written below, regardless of whether Creditor obtains collateral or any guaranties from others or takes any other action contemplated by Guarantor. Guarantor waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall be reinstated and revived and the rights of Creditor shall continue if and to the extent for any reason any amount at any time paid on account of any Indebtedness guaranteed hereby is rescinded, avoided or must otherwise be restored by Creditor, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid. The determination as to whether any amount so paid must be rescinded or restored shall be made by Creditor in its sole discretion; provided however, that if Creditor chooses to contest any such matter at the request of Guarantor, Guarantor agrees to indemnify and hold Creditor harmless from and against all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expended or incurred by Creditor in connection therewith, including without limitation, in any litigation with respect thereto.
5. AUTHORIZATIONS TO CREDITOR. Guarantor authorizes Creditor either before or after revocation hereof, without notice to or demand on Guarantor, and without affecting Guarantor’s liability hereunder, from time to time to: (a) alter, compromise, renew, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change the terms of the Indebtedness or any portion thereof, including increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon; (b) exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate or release any security for the payment of this Guaranty or the indebtedness or any portion thereof; (c) apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including without limitation, a non-judicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling security agreement, lease, mortgage, or deed of trust, as Creditor in its discretion may determine; (d) release or substitute any one or more of the endorsers or any other guarantors of the Indebtedness, or any portion thereof, or any other party thereto; and (c) apply payments received by Creditor from the Debtor to any Indebtedness of the Debtor to Creditor, in such order as Creditor shall determine in its sole discretion, whether or not such Indebtedness is covered by this Guaranty, and Guarantor hereby waives any provision of

law regarding application of payments which specifies otherwise. Creditor may without notice assign this Guaranty in whole or in part. Upon Creditor’s request, Guarantor agrees to provide to Creditor copies of Guarantor’s financial statements.

(b) Guarantor waives any defense to its obligations hereunder based upon or arising by reason of: (i) any disability or other defense of the Debtor or any other person; (ii) the cessation or limitation from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full, of the Indebtedness of the Debtor or any other person; (iii) any lack of authority of any officer, director, partner, agent or any other person acting or purporting to act on behalf of the Debtor which is a corporation, partnership or other type of entity, or any defect in the formation of any such Borrower; (iv) the application by the Debtor of the proceeds of any Indebtedness for purposes other than the purposes represented by Debtor to, or intended or understood by, Creditor or Guarantor; (v) any act or omission by Creditor which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge of any of the Debtor or any portion of the Indebtedness by operation of law or otherwise, or which in any way impairs or suspends any rights or remedies of Creditor against the Debtor; (vi) any impairment of the value of any interest in any security for the Indebtedness or any portion thereof, including without limitation, the failure to obtain or maintain perfection or
 
























































Page 5 of 8 : Continuing Guaranty













recordation of any interest in any such security, the release of any such security without substitution, and/or the failure to preserve the value of, or to comply with applicable law in disposing of, any such security; (vii) or any requirement that Creditor give any notice of acceptance of this Guaranty. Until all Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, Guarantor shall have no right of subrogation, and Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy which Creditor now has or may hereafter have against the Debtor or any other person, and waives any benefit of, or any right to participate in, any security now or hereafter held by Creditor. Guarantor further waives all rights and defenses Guarantor may have arising out of (A) any election of remedies by Creditor, even though that election of remedies, such as a non-judicial foreclosure with respect to any security for any portion of the Indebtedness, destroys Guarantor’s rights of subrogation or Guarantor’s rights to proceed against the Debtor for reimbursement, or (B) any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights, powers or remedies of the Debtor in connection with any anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging Debtor’s Indebtedness, whether by operation of law or otherwise, including any rights Guarantor may have to a fair market value hearing to determine the size of a deficiency following any foreclosure sale or other disposition of any real property security for any portion of the Indebtedness.
(c) Guarantor WAIVES each and every right to which it may be entitled by virtue of any suretyship law, including any rights it may have pursuant to Rule 31 of the Texas Rules of Civil Procedure, §17.001 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code and Chapter 34 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code, as the same may be amended from time to time.
8. REMEDIES; NO WAIVER. All rights, powers and remedies of Creditor hereunder are cumulative. No delay, failure or discontinuance of Creditor in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall affect or operate as a waiver of such right, power or remedy; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude, waive or otherwise affect any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. Any waiver, permit, consent or approval of any kind by Creditor of any breach of this Guaranty, or any such waiver of any provisions or conditions hereof, must be in writing and shall be effective only to the extent set forth in writing.
9. CREDITOR’S OFFSET RIGHTS. Creditor is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without notice to any person (and Guarantor hereby WAIVES any such notice) to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set-off and apply any and all monies, securities and other properties of Guarantor now or in the future in the possession, custody or control of Creditor, or otherwise owed to Guarantor by Creditor. Creditor’s rights under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which Creditor may have.
10. COSTS, EXPENSES AND ATTORNEYS’ FEES. Guarantor shall pay to Creditor immediately upon demand the full amount of all payments, advances, charges, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expended or incurred by
 


























































Page 6 of 8 : Continuing Guaranty













Creditor in connection with the enforcement of any of Creditor’s rights, powers or remedies and/or the collection of any amounts which become due to Creditor under this Guaranty or to enforce or collect any of the Indebtedness, and the prosecution or defense of any action in any way related to this Guaranty.
11. SUCCESSORS; ASSIGNMENT. This Guaranty shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties; provided however, that Guarantor may not assign or transfer any of its interests or rights hereunder without Creditor’s prior written consent. Guarantor acknowledges that Creditor has the right to sell, assign, transfer, negotiate or grant participations in all or any part of, or any interest in, any Indebtedness of Debtor to Creditor and any obligations with respect thereto, including this Guaranty. In connection therewith, Creditor may disclose all documents and information which Creditor now has or hereafter acquires relating to Guarantor and/or this Guaranty, whether furnished by Debtor, Guarantor or otherwise. Guarantor further agrees that Creditor may disclose such documents and information to Debtor.
12. MISCELLANEOUS. This Guaranty may be amended or modified only in writing signed by Creditor and Guarantor. In all cases where there is more than one Debtor named herein, the word “Debtor” shall mean all or any one or more of them as the context requires. If any waiver or other provision of this Guaranty shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable public policy or law, such waiver or other provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such waiver or other provision or any remaining provisions of this Guaranty. This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. Creditor may in its sole discretion, accept a photocopy, electronically transmitted facsimile or other reproduction of this guaranty (a “Counterpart”) as the binding and effective record of this Guaranty whether or not an ink signed copy hereof is also received by creditor from the undersigned, provided, however, that if Creditor accepts a Counterpart as the binding and effective record hereof, the Counterpart acknowledged in writing by Creditor shall constitute the record hereof. The Guarantor agrees that such Counterpart received by Creditor, shall, when acknowledged in writing by Creditor, constitute an original document for the purposes of establishing the provisions thereof and shall be legally admissible under the best evidence rule and binding on and enforceable against the Guarantor. If Creditor accepts a Counterpart as the binding and effective record hereof only such Counterpart acknowledged in writing by Creditor shall be marked “Original” and a security interest may only be created in the Guaranty that bears Creditor’s ink signed acknowledgement and is marked “Original”.
13. Guarantor agrees that should any legal action, suit, or proceeding be initiated by any party to this Guaranty or any debt to which this Guaranty applies, such action shall be brought only in the Courts of applicable jurisdiction for the State of Texas located in Jefferson County, Texas, and all parties consent to the jurisdiction of such Courts as to all such actions.
