	 	Interest Rate: 6.540%
	 	Date of Note: March 9, 2007
	 	 	 	 	 




PROMISE TO PAY. Planet Beach Franchising Corporation (“Borrower”) promises to pay to the
order of Capital One, National Association (“Lender”), in lawful money of the United States of
America the sum of Nine Hundred Seven Thousand One Hundred Forty-one & 49/100 Dollars
(U.S. $907,141.49), together with simple interest at the rate of 6.540% per annum assessed on the
unpaid principal balance of this Note as outstanding from time to time, commencing on March 9,
2007 and continuing until this Note is paid in full.



PAYMENT. Borrower will pay this loan in full immediately upon Lender’s demand. If no demand is
made, Borrower will pay this loan in 240 payments of $6,837.49 each payment. Borrower’s first
payment is due April 9, 2007, and all subsequent payments are due on the same day of each month
after that. Borrower’s final payment due on March 9, 2027, may be greater if Borrower does not
make payments as scheduled. Unless otherwise agreed or required by applicable law, payments
will be applied first to any accrued unpaid interest; then to principal; then to any late
charges; and then to any unpaid collection costs. The annual interest rate for this Note is
computed on a 365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a
year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by the actual
number of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will pay Lender at Lender’s
address shown above or at such other place as Lender may designate in writing.



PREPAYMENT PENALTY. Upon prepayment of this Note, Lender is entitled to the following
prepayment penalty: 3% of the unpaid principal balance if prepaid in full during the first year
of the term; 2% of the unpaid principal balance if prepaid In full during the second year of
the term; 1% of the unpaid principal balance if prepaid in full during the third year of the
term. No penalty shall be due if prepaid after the third year of the term. The prepayment
penalty shall apply only to prepayments resulting from a refinancing of the Note. Other than
Borrower’s obligation to pay any prepayment penalty, Borrower may prepay this Note in full at
any time by paying the then unpaid principal balance of this Note, plus accrued simple interest
and any unpaid late charges through date of prepayment. If Borrower prepays this Note in full,
or if Lender accelerates payment, Borrower understands that, unless otherwise required by law,
any prepaid fees or charges will not be subject to rebate and will be earned by Lender at the
time this Note is signed. Early payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing,
relieve Borrower of Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments under the payment
schedule. Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in
Borrower’s making fewer payments. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments marked “paid in
full”, “without recourse”, or similar language. If Borrower sends such a payment, Lender may
accept it without losing any of Lender’s rights under this Note, and Borrower will remain
obligated to pay any further amount owed to Lender. All written communications concerning
disputed amounts, including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the
payment constitutes “payment in full” of the amount owed or that is tendered with other
conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be mailed or
delivered to: Capital One, National Association, P.O. Box 152407 Irving, TX 75015-2407.



LATE CHARGE. If Borrower fails to pay any payment under this Note in full within 10 days of
when due, Borrower agrees to pay Lender a late payment fee in an amount equal to 10.000% of the
delinquent interest due or $29.00, whichever is greater. Late charges will not be assessed
following declaration of default and acceleration of the maturity of this Note.



INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. If Lender declares this Note to be in default, Lender has the right
prospectively to adjust and fix the simple interest rate under this Note until this Note is paid
in full, as follows: (A) If the original principal amount of this Note is $250,000 or less, the
fixed default interest rate shall be equal to eighteen (18%) percent per annum, or three (3%)
percent per annum in excess of the interest rate under this Note, whichever is greater. (B) If
the original principal amount of this Note is more than $250,000, the fixed default interest
rate shall be equal to twenty-one (21%) percent per annum, or three (3%) percent per annum in
excess of the interest rate under this Note at the time of default, whichever is greater.

(“Event of Default”) under this Note:

fails to make any payment when due under this Note.

otherwise, all without further notice or demand, unless Lender shall otherwise elect.

	 	PROMISSORY NOTE	 	 
	 
	 	(Continued)

COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER BORROWER OR LENDER AGAINST THE OTHER.



GOVERNING LAW. This Note will be governed by federal law applicable to Lender and, to the
extent not preempted by federal law, the laws of the State of Louisiana without regard to its
conflicts of law provisions. This Note has been accepted by Lender in the State of Louisiana.



NSF CHARGE. In the event that Borrower makes any payment under this Note by check or electronic
payment and Borrower’s check or electronic payment is returned to Lender unpaid due to
non-sufficient funds in Borrower’s deposit account or otherwise, Borrower agrees to pay Lender
an NSF charge in an amount of $29.00.



DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. As collateral security for repayment of this Note and all renewals and
extensions, as well as to secure any and all other loans, notes, indebtedness and obligations
that Borrower may now and in the future owe to Lender or incur in Lender’s favor, whether
direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, of any nature and kind
whatsoever (with the exception of any indebtedness under a consumer credit card account), and
to the extent permitted by law, Borrower is granting Lender a continuing security interest in
any and all funds that Borrower may now and in the future have on deposit with Lender or in
certificates of deposit or other deposit accounts as to which Borrower is an account holder
(with the exception of IRA, pension, and other tax-deferred deposits). Borrower further agrees
that, to the extent permitted by law, Lender may at any time apply any funds that Borrower may
have on deposit with Lender or in certificates of deposit or other deposit accounts as to which
Borrower is an account holder against the unpaid balance of this Note and any and all other
present and future indebtedness and obligations that Borrower may then owe to Lender, in
principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees.



FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Borrower agrees to provide Lender with such financial statements and
other related information at such frequencies and in such detail as Lender may reasonably
request.



APPRAISAL COVENANT. Lender shall have the right to re-appraise the collateral securing the Note
at any time during the term of this Note, provided however, Lender shall not exercise this
right more often than every third year from the date of the most recent appraisal. All
Appraisals shall be performed by appraisers acceptable to Lender in its sole discretion, and
the costs thereof shall be secured by the collateral. Borrower shall immediately upon demand
reimburse Lender for the costs of all appraisals. Failure to reimburse Lender upon demand, or
to give any designated appraiser access to the collateral for the purposes of appraising the
collateral, shall constitute a default hereunder and shall entitle Lender to exercise all
remedies provided for default under this Note.



CONVERSION TO VARIABLE RATE AND PAYMENT ADJUSTMENT. Notwithstanding the interest rate
provisions set forth above, Borrower acknowledges that on the three year anniversary of this
Note (“the Conversion Date”), the interest rate will convert to a variable interest rate. On
and after the Conversion Date, the interest rate will be subject to change from time to time
based on changes in an independent index which is the United States Dollars Swap Rate with
adjustment periods of one, three or five years as quoted in the Federal Reserve Statistical
Release H.15 or such other source as is acceptable to Lender (the “Index”), plus a margin of
1.46%. The Index is not necessarily the lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the
Index becomes unavailable during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index
after notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon Borrower’s
request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each year, three years, or
five years, corresponding with the adjustment period then in effect. Thirty days prior to the
Conversion Date, and thirty days prior to any rate change thereafter, Borrower may elect an
adjustment period by so notifying Lender in writing. Otherwise, the adjustment period will
remain the same or will be at Lender’s option. All rate changes will be based on the Index in
effect on the second to last business day of the month prior to the month in which the change
occurs. Notwithstanding the repayment terms set forth above, whenever rate change occurs,
Lender shall have the right to adjust the Borrower’s monthly payments upwards or downwards to
ensure Borrower’s loan will pay off according to the original amortization schedule.



ADDITIONAL INFORMATION. Borrower acknowledges that Lender is subject to federal and state
regulations requiring Lender to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies Lender’s
customers, including all loan parties. Borrower agrees to provide Lender with any information
Lender reasonably deems necessary to comply with all such regulations. Should Borrower fail to
do so, it shall constitute a default hereunder, entitling Lender to exercise all remedies for
default provided hereunder.



FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Borrower agrees to provide Lender with such financial statements and
other related information as such frequencies and in such detail as Lender may reasonably
request.



FINANCIAL STATEMENT. Borrower agrees to provide Lender with such financial statements and other
related information at such frequencies and in such detail as Lender may reasonably request.



ANNUAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that Borrower will, on
an annual basis, furnish Lender with Borrower’s fiscal year end financial statement and tax
returns, prepared and certified as correct to the best knowledge and belief of Borrower, in
form and substance acceptable to Lender. Failure to comply with this provision shall constitute
a default hereunder and shall entitle Lender to exercise all remedies provided hereunder.



WAIVERS. Borrower and each guarantor of this Note hereby waive demand, presentment for payment,
protest, notice of protest and notice of nonpayment, and all pleas of division and discussion,
and severally agree that their obligations and liabilities to Lender hereunder shall be on a
“solidary” or “joint and several” basis. Borrower and each guarantor further severally agree
that discharge or release of any party who is or may be liable to Lender for the indebtedness
represented hereby, or the release of any collateral directly or indirectly securing repayment
hereof, shall not have the effect of releasing any other party or parties, who shall remain
liable to Lender, or of releasing any other collateral that is not expressly released by
Lender. Borrower and each guarantor additionally agree that Lender’s acceptance of payment
other than in accordance with the terms of this Note, or Lender’s subsequent agreement to
extend or modify such repayment terms, or Lender’s failure or delay in exercising any rights or
remedies granted to Lender, shall likewise not have the effect of releasing Borrower or any
other party or parties from their respective obligations to Lender, or of releasing any
collateral that directly or indirectly secures repayment hereof. In addition, any failure or
delay on the part of Lender to exercise any of the rights and remedies granted to Lender shall
not have the effect of waiving any of Lender’s rights and remedies. Any partial exercise of any
rights and/or remedies granted to Lender shall furthermore not be construed as a waiver of any
other rights and remedies; it being Borrower’s intent and agreement that Lender’s rights and
remedies shall be cumulative in nature. Borrower and each guarantor further agree that, should
any default event occur or exist under this Note, any waiver or forbearance on the part of
Lender to pursue the rights and remedies available to Lender, shall be binding upon Lender only
to the extent that Lender’s specifically agrees to any such waiver or forbearance in writing. A
waiver or forbearance on the part of Lender as to one default event shall not be construed as a
waiver or forbearance as to any other default. Borrower and each guarantor of this Note further
agree that any late charges provided for under this Note will not be charges for deferral of
time for payment and will not and are not intended to compensate Lender’s for a grace or cure
period, and no such deferral, grace or cure period has or will be granted to Borrower in return
for the imposition of any late charge. Borrower recognizes that Borrower’s failure to make
timely payment of amounts due under this Note will result in damages to Lender, including but
not limited to Lender’s loss of the use of amounts due, and Borrower agrees that any late
charges imposed by Lender hereunder will represent reasonable compensation to Lender for such
damages. Failure to pay in full any installment or payment timely when due under this Note,
whether or not a late charge is assessed, will remain and shall constitute an Event of Default
hereunder.






SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS LIABLE. Borrower’s and each guarantor’s obligations and agreements
under this Note shall be binding upon Borrower’s and each Guarantor’s respective successors.
heirs, legatees. devisees, administrators, executors and assigns. The rights and
remedies granted to Lender under this Note shall inure to the benefit of Lender’s successors
and assigns, as well as to any subsequent holder or holders of this Note.

to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this Note.

any court, that provision shall be deleted from this Note and the balance of this Note shall
be interpreted as if the deleted provision never existed.

Basis: Replacement value.
	 
	 	 	 	Endorsements: Standard mortgagee’s clause naming Lender as non-contributory lender

without a minimum of 30 days prior written notice to Lender, and without disclaimer
of the insurer’s liability for failure to give such notice.
	 
	 	 	 	Latest Delivery Date: By the loan closing date.

INSURANCE COMPANY. Grantor may obtain insurance from any insurance company Grantor may choose
that is reasonably acceptable to Lender.




     FLOOD INSURANCE. Flood Insurance for the Collateral securing this loan is described as follows:




Real Estate at 5145 Taravella Road, Marrero, LA 70072.




The Collateral securing this loan is not currently located in an area identified as
having special flood hazards. Therefore, no special flood hazard insurance is necessary at
this time. Should the Collateral at any time be deemed to be located in an area designated by
the Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a special flood hazard area,
Grantor agrees to obtain and maintain Federal Flood Insurance, if available, within 45 days
after notice is given by Lender that the Collateral is located in a special flood hazard
area, for the full unpaid principal balance of the loan and any prior liens on the property
securing the loan, up to the maximum policy limits set under the National Flood Insurance
Program, or as otherwise required by Lender, and to maintain such insurance for the term of
the loan. Flood insurance may be purchased under the National Flood Insurance Program or from
private insurers.




Real Estate at 5161 Taravella Road, Marrero, LA 70072.




The Collateral securing this loan is not currently located in an area identified as having
special flood hazards. Therefore, no special flood hazard insurance is necessary at this
time. Should the Collateral at any time be deemed to be located in an area designated by the
Director of the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a special flood hazard area, Grantor
agrees to obtain and maintain Federal Flood Insurance, if available, within 45 days after
notice is given by Lender that the Collateral is located in a special flood hazard area, for
the full unpaid principal balance of the loan and any prior liens on the property securing
the loan, up to the maximum policy limits set under the National Flood Insurance Program, or
as otherwise required by Lender, and to maintain such insurance for the term of the loan.
Flood insurance may be purchased under the National Flood Insurance Program or from private
insurers.


INSURANCE MAILING ADDRESS. All documents and other materials relating to insurance for this
loan should be mailed, delivered or directed to the following address:



Capital One, National Association

Attn: Insurance Dept.

P.O. Box 152404

FAILURE TO PROVIDE INSURANCE. Grantor agrees to deliver to Lender, on the latest delivery date
stated above, evidence that Grantor has purchased the insurance required under Grantor’s
Mortgage or other security agreement, naming Lender as non-contributory loss payee beneficiary,
which insurance coverage must have an effective date of the loan closing date, or earlier.
Grantor acknowledges and agrees that if Grantor fails to provide any required insurance or
fails to continue such insurance in force, Lender may do so at Grantor’s expense as provided in
the applicable security document. The cost of any such insurance, at the option of Lender,
shall be added to the indebtedness as provided in the security document. GRANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT IF LENDER SO PURCHASES ANY SUCH INSURANCE, THE INSURANCE WILL PROVIDE LIMITED PROTECTION
AGAINST PHYSICAL DAMAGE TO THE COLLATERAL, UP TO AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE LESSER OF (1) THE
UNPAID BALANCE OF THE DEBT, EXCLUDING ANY UNEARNED FINANCE CHARGES, OR (2) THE VALUE OF THE
COLLATERAL; HOWEVER, GRANTOR’S EQUITY IN THE COLLATERAL MAY NOT BE INSURED. IN ADDITION, THE
INSURANCE MAY NOT PROVIDE ANY PUBLIC LIABILITY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE INDEMNIFICATION AND MAY NOT
MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF ANY FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY LAWS.



CONFLICTING PROVISIONS. To the extent any provisions of this Agreement conflict with provisions
of Grantor’s Acknowledgment of Multiple Indebtedness Mortgages, the specific provisions of
Grantor’s Acknowledgment of Multiple Indebtedness Mortgages will prevail.



AUTHORIZATION. For purposes of insurance coverage on the Collateral, Grantor authorizes Lender
to provide to any person (including any insurance agent or company) all information Lender deems
appropriate, whether regarding the Collateral, the loan or other financial accommodations, or
both.



GRANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES HAVING READ ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT TO PROVIDE INSURANCE AND
AGREES TO ITS TERMS. THIS AGREEMENT IS DATED MARCH 9, 2007.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF EXISTING MULTIPLE INDEBTEDNESS MORTGAGE




TERMS AND CONDITIONS:



MULTIPLE
INDEBTEDNESS MORTGAGE. Design to secure the prompt and punctual payment and
satisfaction of present and future Indebtedness may be outstanding from time to time, one or
more times, as provided herein, Grantor previously executed the following described Mortgage in
favor of Lender:




     A Multiple Indebtedness Mortgage dated December 3, 2001 in favor of Lender.


CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST TO SECURE PRESENT AND FUTURE INDEBTEDNESS. Grantor reaffirms that
Grantor’s Mortgage was intended to and shall secure any and all of Grantor’s present and future
Indebtedness in favor of Lender, as may be outstanding from time to time, one or more times,
including Grantor’s loan and promissory note described therein, with the continuing preferences
and priorities provided
under Louisiana law.



TRANSFER OF INDEBTEDNESS. Grantor hereby recognizes and agrees that Lender may assign all or
any portion of the Indebtedness to one or more third party creditors. Such transfers may
include, but are not limited to, sales of participation interests in the Indebtedness. Grantor
specifically agrees and consents to all such transfers and further waives any notice of any
such transfers as may be provided for under applicable law.



EXECUTION OF ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS. Grantor agrees to execute all additional documents
that Lender may deem necessary and proper, within its sole discretion, to better reflect the
true intent of this Acknowledgment.



WAIVERS. Grantor hereby waives presentment for payment, protest and notice of protest and of
nonpayment, and all pleas of division and discussion with regard to the Indebtedness. Grantor
agrees that Grantor shall remain liable together with any and all guarantors, endorsers and
sureties of the Indebtedness on a “joint and several” or “solidary” basis. Grantor further
agrees that discharge or release of any party, or extension of time for payment, or any delay
in enforcing any rights granted to Lender, will not cause Lender to lose any of its rights
under this Acknowledgment or under the Indebtedness. Grantor is also waiving any defenses that
may arise because of any action or inaction on Lender’s part, including without
limitation, any failure or delay of Lender to exercise or enforce any of its rights related to
Grantor’s Mortgage. Grantor additionally agrees that any waiver or forbearance on Lender’s part
shall be binding upon Lender only if agreed to in writing.



Grantor additionally agrees that Lender’s acceptance of payments other than in accordance with
the terms of any agreement or agreements governing repayment of the Indebtedness, or Lender’s
subsequent agreement to extend or modify such repayment terms, shall likewise not have the
effect of releasing Grantor, and/or of releasing the Indebtedness, and/or any other party or
parties guaranteeing payment of the Indebtedness from their respective obligations to Lender,
and/or of releasing any other collateral directly or indirectly securing repayment of the
Indebtedness. In addition, no course of dealing between Grantor and Lender, nor any failure or
delay on the part of Lender to exercise any of the rights and remedies granted under the
aforesaid provisions, or under any other agreement or agreements by and between Grantor and
Lender, shall have the effect of waiving any of Lender’s rights and remedies. Any partial
exercise of any rights and remedies granted to Lender shall furthermore not constitute a waiver
of any of Lender’s other rights and remedies, it being Grantor’s intent and agreement that
Lender’s rights and remedies shall be cumulative in nature. Grantor further agrees that, upon
the occurrence of any Event of Default under the aforesaid provisions, any waiver or
forbearance on the part of Lender to pursue the rights and remedies available to Lender, shall
be binding upon Lender only to the extent that Lender specifically agrees to any such waiver or
forbearance in writing. A waiver or forbearance as to one Event of Default shall not constitute
a waiver or forbearance as to any other default.



DEFINITION OF INDEBTEDNESS EXPANDED. The word “Indebtedness” shall also mean and include
individually, collectively, interchangeably and without limitation, any and all present and
future loans, extensions of credit, liabilities and/or obligations of every nature and kind
whatsoever that Borrower, and/or Grantor if Borrower and Grantor are not the same party, may
now and in the future owe to or incur in favor of Lender and its successors or assigns,
including without limitation, indebtedness under any Note described herein, whether such loans,
extensions of credit liabilities and/or obligation are direct or indirect, or by way of
assignment, and whether related or unrelated, or whether committed or purely discretionary, and
whether absolute or contingent, voluntary or involuntary, determined or undetermined,
liquidated or unliquidated, due or to become due, together with interest, costs, expenses,
attorneys’ fees and other fees and charges, whether or not any such indebtedness may be barred
under any statute of limitations or may be otherwise unenforceable or voidable for any reason.

Acknowledgment:

unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the term hereof, such provision
shall be fully severable. This Acknowledgment shall be construed and enforceable as if the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of it, and
the remaining provisions of this Acknowledgment shall remain in full force and
effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by
its severance herefrom. Furthermore, in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable

	 	New Orleans, LA 70130	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 
	 	 	 	 	 	 	 	 
	 




CONTINUING GUARANTEE OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. For good and valuable consideration,
Guarantor absolutely and unconditionally guarantees full and punctual payment and satisfaction
of the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, and the performance and discharge of all Borrower’s
obligations under the Note and the Related Documents. This is a guaranty of payment and
performance and not of collection, so Lender can enforce this Guaranty against Guarantor even
when Lender has not exhausted Lender’s remedies against anyone else obligated to pay the
Borrower’s Indebtedness or against any collateral securing the Borrower’s Indebtedness, this
Guaranty or any other guaranty of the Borrower’s Indebtedness. Guarantor will make any payments
to Lender or its order, on demand, in same-day funds, without set-off or deduction or
counterclaim, and will otherwise perform Borrower’s obligations under the Note and Related
Documents. Under this Guaranty, Guarantor’s liability is unlimited and Guarantor’s obligations
are continuing.



BORROWER’S INDEBTEDNESS. The words “Borrower’s Indebtedness” as used in this Guaranty
mean all of the principal amount outstanding from time to time and at any one or more times,
accrued unpaid interest thereon and all collection costs and legal expenses related thereto
permitted by law, reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from any and all present and future loans,
loan advances, extensions of credit, obligations and/or liabilities that Borrower individually
or collectively or interchangeably with others, owes or will owe or incur in favor of Lender
whether direct or indirect, or by way of assignment or purchase of a participation interest, and
whether absolute or contingent, voluntary or involuntary, determined or undetermined, liquidated
or unliquidated, due or to become due, secured or unsecured, and whether Borrower may be liable
individually, jointly or solidarily with others, whether primarily or secondarily, or as a
guarantor or otherwise, and whether now existing or hereafter arising, of every nature and kind
whatsoever.



If Lender presently holds one or more guaranties, or hereafter receives additional guaranties
from Guarantor, Lender’s rights under all guaranties shall be cumulative. This Guaranty shall
not (unless specifically provided below to the contrary) affect or invalidate any such other
guaranties. Guarantor’s liability will be Guarantor’s aggregate liability under the terms of
this Guaranty and any such other unterminated guaranties.



JOINT, SEVERAL AND SOLIDARY LIABILITY. Guarantor’s obligations and liability under this
Guaranty shall be on a “solidary” or “joint and several” basis along with Borrower to the same
degree and extent as if Guarantor had been and/or will be a co-borrower, co-principal obligor
and/or co-maker of Borrower’s Indebtedness. In the event that there is more than one Guarantor
under this Guaranty, or in the event that there are other guarantors, endorsers or sureties of
all or any portion of Borrower’s Indebtedness, Guarantor’s obligations and liability hereunder
shall further be on a “solidary” or “joint and several” basis along with such other guarantors,
endorsers and/or sureties.



CONTINUING GUARANTY. THIS IS A “CONTINUING GUARANTY” UNDER WHICH GUARANTOR AGREES TO
GUARANTEE THE FULL AND PUNCTUAL PAYMENT, PERFORMANCE AND SATISFACTION OF THE INDEBTEDNESS OF
BORROWER TO LENDER, NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING OR ACQUIRED, ON AN OPEN AND CONTINUING
BASIS. ACCORDINGLY, ANY PAYMENTS MADE ON THE BORROWER’S INDEBTEDNESS WILL NOT DISCHARGE OR
DIMINISH GUARANTOR’S OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITY UNDER THIS GUARANTY FOR ANY REMAINING AND
SUCCEEDING INDEBTEDNESS EVEN WHEN ALL OR PART OF THE OUTSTANDING INDEBTEDNESS MAY BE A ZERO
BALANCE FROM TIME TO TIME.



DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Agreement and Guarantor’s obligations and liability hereunder
shall remain in full force and effect until such time as this Agreement may be cancelled or
otherwise terminated by Lender under a written cancellation instrument in favor of Guarantor
(subject to the automatic reinstatement provisions hereinbelow). It is anticipated that
fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Borrower’s Indebtedness guaranteed under this
Agreement and it is specifically acknowledged and agreed to by Guarantor that reductions
in the amount of Borrower’s Indebtedness, even to zero ($0.00) dollars, prior to Lender’s
written cancellation of this Agreement, shall not constitute or give rise to a termination of
this Agreement.



CANCELLATION OF AGREEMENT; EFFECT. Unless otherwise indicated under such a written
cancellation instrument, Lender’s agreement to terminate or otherwise cancel this Guaranty shall
affect only, and shall be expressly limited to, Guarantor’s continuing obligations and liability
to guarantee Borrower’s Indebtedness incurred, originated and/or extended (without prior
commitment) after the date of such a written cancellation instrument; with Guarantor remaining
fully obligated and liable under this Guaranty for any and all of Borrower’s Indebtedness
incurred, originated, extended, or committed to prior to the date of such a written cancellation
instrument. Nothing under this Guaranty or under any other agreement or understanding by
and between Guarantor and Lender, shall in any way obligate, or be construed to obligate,
Lender to agree to the subsequent termination or cancellation of Guarantor’s obligations and
liability hereunder; it being fully understood and agreed to by Guarantor that Lender
has and intends to continue to rely on Guarantor’s assets, income and financial resources in
extending credit and other Indebtedness to and in favor of Borrower, and that to release
Guarantor from Guarantor’s continuing obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty would so
prejudice Lender that Lender may, within its sole and uncontrolled discretion and judgment,
refuse to release Guarantor from any of Guarantor’s continuing obligations and liability under
this Guaranty for any reason whatsoever as long as any of Borrower’s Indebtedness remains unpaid
and outstanding, or otherwise.

COMMERCIAL GUARANTY

(Continued)



(I) Any statute of limitations or prescriptive period, if at the time an action or suit brought
by Lender against Guarantor is commenced, there is any outstanding Borrower’s Indebtedness
which is barred by any applicable statute of limitations or prescriptive period.



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, such
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.



GUARANTOR’S SUBORDINATION OF RIGHTS. In the event that Guarantor should for any reason
(A) advance or lend monies to Borrower, whether or not such funds are used by Borrower to make
payment(s) under Borrower’s Indebtedness, or (B) make any payment(s) to Lender or others for
and on behalf of Borrower under Borrower’s Indebtedness, or (C) make any payment to Lender in
total or partial satisfaction of Borrower’s obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty, or
(D) if any of Borrower’s property is used to pay or satisfy any of Borrower’s Indebtedness,
Guarantor hereby agrees that any and all rights that Guarantor may have or acquire to collect
from or to be reimbursed by Borrower (or from or by any other guarantor, endorser or surety of
Borrower’s Indebtedness), whether Guarantor’s rights of collection or reimbursement arise by
way of subrogation to the rights of Lender or otherwise, shall in all respects, whether or not
Borrower is presently or subsequently becomes insolvent, be subordinate, inferior and junior to
the rights of Lender to collect and enforce payment. performance and satisfaction of Borrower’s
Indebtedness that then remains, until such time as Borrower’s Indebtedness is fully paid and
satisfied. In the event of Borrower’s insolvency or consequent liquidation of Borrower’s
assets, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by voluntary
liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the payment of claims of both
Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and shall be first applied by Lender to Borrower’s
Indebtedness that then remains. Guarantor hereby assigns to Lender all claims which it may have
or acquire against Borrower or any assignee or trustee of Borrower in bankruptcy; provided
that, such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose of assuring to Lender full
payment of Borrower’s Indebtedness guaranteed under this Guaranty.



GUARANTOR’S RECEIPT OF PAYMENTS. Guarantor further agrees to refrain from attempting to
collect and/or enforce any of Guarantor’s collection and/or reimbursement rights against
Borrower (or against any other guarantor, surety or endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness),
arising by way of subrogation or otherwise, until such time as all of Borrower’s Indebtedness
that then remains is fully paid and satisfied. In the event that Guarantor should for any
reason whatsoever receive any payment(s) from Borrower (or any other guarantor, surety or
endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness) that Borrower (or such a third party) may owe to Guarantor
for any of the reasons stated above, Guarantor agrees to accept such payment(s) in trust for
and on behalf of Lender, advising Borrower (or the third party payee) of such fact. Guarantor
further unconditionally agrees to immediately deliver such funds to Lender, with such funds
being held by Guarantor over any interim period, in trust for Lender. In the event that
Guarantor should for any reason whatsoever receive any such funds from Borrower (or any third
party), and Guarantor should deposit such funds in one or more of Guarantor’s deposit accounts,
no matter where located, Lender shall have the right to attach any and all of Guarantor’s
deposit accounts in which such funds were deposited, whether or not such funds were commingled
with other monies of Guarantor, and whether or not such funds then remain on deposit in such an
account or accounts. To this end and to secure Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty,
Guarantor collaterally assigns and pledges to Lender, and grants to Lender a continuing
security interest in, any and all of Guarantor’s present and future rights, title and interest
in and to all monies that Guarantor may now and/or in the future maintain on deposit with
banks, savings and loan associations and other entities (other than tax deferred accounts with
Lender), in which Guarantor may at any time deposit any such funds that may be received from
Borrower (or any other guarantor, endorser or surety of Borrower’s Indebtedness).



DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. As collateral security for repayment of Guarantor’s obligations
hereunder and under any additional guaranties previously granted or to be granted by Guarantor
in the future, and additionally as collateral security for any present and future indebtedness
of Guarantor in favor of Lender (with the exception of any indebtedness under a consumer credit
card account), and to the extent permitted by law, Guarantor is granting Lender a continuing
security interest in any and all funds that Guarantor may now and in the future have on deposit
with Lender or in certificates of deposit or other deposit accounts as to which Guarantor is an
account holder (with the exception of IRA, pension, and other tax-deferred deposits). Guarantor
further agrees that, to the extent permitted by law, Lender may at any time apply any funds
that Guarantor may have on deposit with Lender or in certificates of deposit or other deposit
accounts as to which Guarantor is an account holder against the unpaid balance of any and all
other present and future obligations and indebtedness of Guarantor to Lender, in principal,
interest, fees, costs, expenses, and attorneys’ fees.



ADDITIONAL COVENANTS. Guarantor agrees that Lender may, at its sole option, at any
time, and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to Guarantor, or any of them, or
to any other party, and without incurring any responsibility to Guarantor or to any other
party, and without impairing or releasing any of Guarantor’s obligations or liabilities under
this Guaranty:





(A) Make additional secured and/or unsecured loans to Borrower.




(B) Discharge, release or agree not to sue any party (including, but not limited to,
Borrower or any other guarantor, surety, or endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness), who is or
may be liable to Lender for any of Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(C) Sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, or otherwise deal with, in any manner
and in any order, any collateral directly or indirectly securing repayment of any of
Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(D) Alter, renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change the manner, place, terms and/or
times of payment or other terms of Borrower’s Indebtedness, or any part thereof, including
any increase or decrease in the rate or rates of interest on any of Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(E) Settle or compromise any of Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(F) Subordinate and/or agree to subordinate the payment of all or any part of Borrower’s
Indebtedness, or Lender’s security rights in any collateral directly or indirectly securing
any such Borrower’s Indebtedness, to the payment and/or security rights of any other present
and/or future creditors of Borrower.




(G) Apply any payments and/or proceeds to any of Borrower’s Indebtedness in such priority or
with such preferences as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, regardless of which of
Borrower’s Indebtedness then remains unpaid.




(H) Take or accept any other collateral security or guaranty for any or all of Borrower’s
Indebtedness.




(I) Enter into, deliver, modify, amend, or waive compliance with, any instrument or
arrangement evidencing, securing or otherwise affecting, all or any part of Borrower’s
Indebtedness.


NO IMPAIRMENT OF GUARANTOR’S OBLIGATIONS. No course of dealing between Lender and
Borrower (or any other guarantor, surety or endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness), nor any
failure or delay on the part of Lender to exercise any of Lender’s rights and remedies under
this Guaranty or any other agreement or agreements by and between Lender and Borrower (or any
other guarantor, surety or endorser), shall have the effect of impairing or releasing
Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities to Lender, or of waiving any of Lender’s rights and
remedies under this Guaranty or otherwise. Any partial exercise of any rights and remedies
granted to Lender shall furthermore not constitute a waiver of any of Lender’s other rights and
remedies; it being Guarantor’s intent and agreement that Lender’s rights and remedies shall be
cumulative in nature. Guarantor further agrees that, should Borrower default under any of
Borrower’s Indebtedness, any waiver or forbearance on the part of Lender to pursue Lender’s
available rights and remedies shall be binding upon Lender only to the extent that Lender
specifically agrees to such waiver or forbearance in writing. A waiver or forbearance on the
part of Lender as to one event of default shall not constitute a waiver or forbearance as to
any other default.



NO RELEASE OF GUARANTOR. Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty
shall not be released, impaired, reduced, or otherwise affected by, and shall continue in full
force and effect notwithstanding the occurrence of any event, including without limitation any
one or more of the following events:





(A) The death, insolvency, bankruptcy, arrangement, adjustment, composition, liquidation,
disability, dissolution, or lack of authority (whether corporate, partnership or trust) of
Borrower (or any person acting on Borrower’s behalf), or of any other guarantor, surety or
endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(B) Any payment by Borrower, or any other party, to Lender that is held to constitute a
preferential transfer or a fraudulent conveyance under any applicable law, or any such
amounts or payment which, for any reason, Lender is required to refund or repay to Borrower
or to any other person.




(C) Any dissolution of Borrower, or any sale, lease or transfer of all or any part of
Borrower’s assets.




(D) Any failure of Lender to notify Guarantor of the making of additional loans or other
extensions of credit in reliance on this Guaranty.


AUTOMATIC REINSTATEMENT. This Guaranty and Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities
hereunder shall continue to be effective, and/or shall automatically and retroactively be
reinstated, if a release or discharge has occurred, or if at any time, any payment or part
thereof to Lender with respect to any of Borrower’s Indebtedness, is rescinded or must
otherwise be restored by Lender pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization,
receivership, or any other debt relief granted to Borrower or to any other party to Borrower’s
Indebtedness or any such security therefor. In the event that Lender must rescind or restore
any payment received in total or partial satisfaction of Borrower’s Indebtedness, any prior
release or discharge from the terms of this Guaranty given to Guarantor shall be without
effect, and this Guaranty and Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities hereunder shall
automatically and retroactively be renewed and/or reinstated and shall remain in full force and
effect to the same degree and extent as if such a release or discharge had never been granted.
It is the intention of Lender and Guarantor that Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities
hereunder shall not be discharged except by Guarantor’s full and complete performance and
satisfaction of





 









 










COMMERCIAL GUARANTY

such obligations and liabilities; and then only to the extent of such performance.

Indebtedness in favor of Lender, at Borrower’s request and not at the request of Lender.

continuing basis regarding Borrower’s financial condition.




(G) Lender has made no representations to Guarantor as to the creditworthiness of Borrower.


ADDITIONAL OBLIGATIONS OF GUARANTOR. So long as this Guaranty remains in effect, Guarantor will
not, without Lender’s prior written consent, sell, lease, assign, pledge, hypothecate,
encumber, transfer, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor’s assets.
Guarantor further agrees to keep adequately informed of all facts, events and circumstances
which might in any way affect Guarantor’s risks under this Guaranty without in any way relying
upon Lender to advise Guarantor of the same. Lender shall have no obligation whatsoever to
disclose to Guarantor any information acquired in the course of its relationship with Borrower
or otherwise.



GUARANTOR’S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Guarantor agrees to furnish Lender with the following:





Annual Statements. As soon as available, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after
the end of each fiscal year, Guarantor’s balance sheet and income statement for the year

and correct.



TRANSFER OF INDEBTEDNESS. This Guaranty is for the benefit of Lender and for such other person
or persons as may from time to time become or be the holders of all or any part of Borrower’s
Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall be transferable and negotiable with the same force and
effect and to the same extent as Borrower’s Indebtedness may be transferable; it being
understood and agreed to by Guarantor that, upon any transfer or assignment of all or any part
of Borrower’s Indebtedness, the holder of such Borrower’s Indebtedness shall have all of the
rights and remedies granted to Lender under this Guaranty. Guarantor further agrees that, upon
any transfer of all or any portion of Borrower’s Indebtedness, Lender may transfer and deliver
any and all collateral securing repayment of such Borrower’s Indebtedness (including, but not
limited to, any collateral provided by Guarantor) to the transferee of such Borrower’s
Indebtedness, and such collateral shall secure any and all of Borrower’s Indebtedness in favor
of such a transferee. Guarantor additionally agrees that, after any such transfer or assignment
has taken place, Lender shall be fully discharged from any and all liability and responsibility
to Borrower and Guarantor with respect to such collateral, and the transferee thereafter shall
be vested with all the powers and rights with respect to such collateral.



CONSENT TO PARTICIPATION. Guarantor recognizes and agrees that Lender may, from time to time,
one or more times, transfer all or any part of Borrower’s Indebtedness through sales of
participation interests in Borrower’s Indebtedness to one or more third party lenders.
Guarantor specifically agrees and consents to all such transfers and assignments, and Guarantor
further waives any subsequent notice of such transfers and assignments as may be provided under
Louisiana law. Guarantor additionally agrees that the purchaser of a participation interest in
Borrower’s Indebtedness will be considered as the absolute owner of a percentage interest of
Borrower’s Indebtedness and that such a purchaser will have all of the rights granted under any
participation agreement governing the sale of such a participation interest. Guarantor waives
any rights of offset that Guarantor may have against Lender and/or any purchaser of such a
participation interest, and Guarantor unconditionally agrees that either Lender or such a
purchaser may enforce Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty, irrespective
of the failure or insolvency of Lender or any such purchaser.



NOTICES. Any notice provided in this Guaranty must be in writing and will be considered as
given on the day it is delivered by hand or deposited in the U.S. mail, postage prepaid,
addressed to the person to whom the notice is to be given at the address shown above or at such
other addresses as any party may designate to the other in writing. If there is more than one
Guarantor under this Guaranty, notice to any Guarantor shall constitute notice to all
Guarantors.



ADDITIONAL GUARANTIES. Guarantor recognizes and agrees that Guarantor may have previously
granted, and may in the future grant one or more additional guaranties of Borrower’s
Indebtedness and obligations in favor of Lender. Should this occur, the execution of this
Guaranty and any additional guaranties on Guarantor’s part will not be construed as a
cancellation of this Guaranty or any of Guarantor’s additional guaranties; it being Guarantor’s
full intent and agreement that all of Guarantor’s guaranties of Borrower’s Indebtedness and
obligations in favor of Lender, shall remain in full force and shall be cumulative in nature
and effect.

Amendments. No amendment, modification, consent or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty,

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

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.






Severability. If any provision of this Guaranty is held to be illegal, invalid or
unenforceable under present or future laws effective during the
term
hereof, to such such provision
shall be fully severable. This Guaranty shall be construed and enforceable as if the
illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part of it, and the
remaining provisions of this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and shall not be
affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom.

CONTINUING GUARANTEE OF PAYMENT AND PERFORMANCE. For good and valuable consideration, Guarantor
absolutely and unconditionally guarantees full and punctual payment and satisfaction of the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, and the performance and discharge of all Borrower’s
obligations under the Note and the Related Documents. This is a guaranty of payment and
performance and not of collection, so Lender can enforce this Guaranty against Guarantor
even when Lender has not exhausted Lender’s remedies against anyone else obligated to pay the
Borrower’s Indebtedness or against any collateral securing the Borrowers Indebtedness, this
Guaranty or any other guaranty of the Borrower’s Indebtedness Guarantor will make any payments
to Lender or its order on demand, in same-day funds, without set-off or deduction or
counterclaim, and will otherwise perform Borrower’s obligations under the Note and Related
Documents Under this Guaranty, Guarantor’s liability is unlimited and Guarantor’s obligations
are continuing.



BORROWER’S INDEBTEDNESS. The words “Borrower’s Indebtedness” as used in this Guaranty mean at of
the principal amount outstanding from time to time and at any one or more times, accrued
unpaid interest thereon and all collection costs and legal expenses related thereto permitted by
law, reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising from any and all present and future loans, loan
advances, extensions of credit, obligations and/or liabilities that Borrower individually or
collectively or interchangeably with others, owes or will owe or incur in favor of Lender
whether direct or indirect, or by way of assignment or purchase of a participation interest, and
whether absolute or contingent, voluntary or involuntary, determined or undetermined, liquidated
or unliquidated, due or to become due, secured or unsecured, and whether Borrower may be liable
individually, jointly or solidarily with others, whether primarily or secondarily, or as a
guarantor or otherwise, and whether now existing or hereafter arising of every nature and kind
whatsoever.





If Lender presently holds one or more guaranties, or hereafter receives additional guaranties
from Guarantor, Lenders rights under all guaranties shall be cumulative. This Guaranty shall not
(unless specifically provided below to the contrary) affect or invalidate any such other
guaranties Guarantor’s liability will be Guarantor’s aggregate liability under the terms of
this Guaranty and any such other unterminated guaranties.




JOINT, SEVERAL AND SOLIDARY LIABILITY. Guarantor’s obligations and liability under this Guaranty
shall be on a “solider),” or “joint and several” basis along with Borrower to the same degree
and extent as if Guarantor had been and/or will be a co-borrower,
co-principal obligor and/or
co-maker of Borrowers Indebtedness. In the event that there is more than one Guarantor under
this Guaranty, or in the event that there are other guarantors, endorsers or sureties of all or
any portion of Borrowers Indebtedness, Guarantor’s obligations and liability hereunder shall
further be on a “solidary” or “joint and severer basis along with such other guarantors,

CONTINUING GUARANTY THIS IS A “CONTINUING GUARANTY” UNDER WHICH GUARANTOR AGREES TO GUARANTEE
THE FULL AND PUNCTUAL PAYMENT, PERFORMANCE AND SATISFACTION OF THE INDEBTEDNESS OF BORROWER TO
LENDER, NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING OR ACQUIRED, ON AN OPEN AND CONTINUING BASIS
ACCORDINGLY. ANY PAYMENTS MADE ON THE BORROWER’S INDEBTEDNESS WILL NOT DISCHARGE OR DIMINISH
GUARANTOR’S OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITY UNDER THIS GUARANTY FOR ANY REMAINING AND SUCCEEDING
INDEBTEDNESS EVEN WHEN ALL OR PART OF THE OUTSTANDING INDEBTEDNESS MAY BE A ZERO BALANCE FROM
TIME TO TIME.




DURATION OF GUARANTY This Agreement and Guarantor’s obligations and liability hereunder shall
remain in full force and effect until such time as this Agreement may be cancelled or otherwise
terminated by Lender under a written cancellation instrument in favor of Guarantor (subject to
the automatic reinstatement provisions hereinbelow). It is anticipated that fluctuations may
occur in the aggregate amount of Borrower’s Indebtedness guaranteed under this Agreement and it
is specifically acknowledged and agreed to by Guarantor that reductions in the amount of
Borrower’s Indebtedness, even to zero ($0 00) dollars, poor to Lenders written cancellation of
this Agreement, shall not constitute or give rise to a termination of this Agreement.




CANCELLATION OF AGREEMENT, EFFECT Unless otherwise indicated under such a written cancellation
instrument, Lender’s agreement to terminate or otherwise cancel this Guaranty shall affect
only, and shall be expressly limited to, Guarantor’s continuing obligations and liability to

commitment) after the date of such a written cancellation instrument, with Guarantor remaining
fully obligated and liable under this Guaranty for any and all of Borrower’s Indebtedness
incurred, originated, extended, or committed to prior to the date of such a written
cancellation instrument. Nothing under this Guaranty or under any other agreement or
understanding by and between Guarantor and Lender, shall in any way obligate, or be construed
to obligate. Lender to agree to the subsequent termination or cancellation of Guarantor’s
obligations and liability hereunder, it being fully understood and agreed to by Guarantor that
Lender has and intends to continue to rely on Guarantor’s assets, income and financial
resources in extending credit and other Indebtedness to and in favor of Borrower, and that to
release Guarantor from Guarantors continuing obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty
would so prejudice Lender that Lender may, within its sole and uncontrolled discretion and
judgment, refuse to release Guarantor from any of Guarantor’s continuing obligations and
liability under this Guaranty for any reason whatsoever as long as any of Borrowers
Indebtedness remains unpaid and outstanding, or otherwise.




OBLIGATIONS OF MARRIED PERSONS. If Guarantor is named, Guarantor hereby expressly agrees that
recourse may be had against both Guarantor’s separate property and Guarantor’s community
property for all Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty.

(I) Any statute of limitations or prescriptive period, if at the time an action or suit brought
by Lender against Guarantor is commenced, there is any outstanding Borrower’s Indebtedness which
is barred by any applicable statute of limitations or prescriptive period.




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, such
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.




GUARANTOR’S SUBORDINATION OF RIGHTS. In the event that Guarantor should for any reason (A)
advance or lend monies to Borrower, whether or not such funds are used by Borrower to make
payment(s) under Borrower’s Indebtedness, or (B) make any payment(s) to Lender or others for and
on behalf of Borrower under Borrowers Indebtedness, or (C) make any payment to Lender in total
or partial satisfaction of Borrower’s obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty, or (D) if
any of Borrower’s property is used to pay or satisfy any of Borrower’s Indebtedness, Guarantor
hereby agrees that any and all rights that Guarantor may have or acquire to collect from or to be
reimbursed by Borrower (or from or by any other guarantor, endorser or surety of Borrower’s
Indebtedness), whether Guarantor’s rights of collection or
reimbursement are by way of
subrogation to the rights of Lender or otherwise, shall in all respects, whether or not Borrower
is presently or subsequently becomes insolvent, be subordinate,
inferior and junior to the rights
of Lender to collect and enforce payment, performance and satisfaction of Borrower’s
Indebtedness that then remains, until such time as Borrower’s Indebtedness is fully paid and
satisfied In the event of Borrower’s insolvency or consequent liquidation of Borrower’s assets,
through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by voluntary liquidation, or
otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the payment of claims of both Lender and
Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and shall be first applied by Lender to Borrower’s
Indebtedness that then remains. Guarantor hereby assigns to Lender all claims which it may have
or acquire against Borrower or any assignee or trustee of Borrower in bankruptcy, provided that,
such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose of assuring to Lender full payment of
Borrower’s Indebtedness guaranteed under this Guaranty.




GUARANTOR’S RECEIPT OF PAYMENTS. Guarantor further agrees to refrain from attempting to collect
and/or enforce any of Guarantor’s collection and/or
reimbursement rights against Borrower (or
against any other guarantor, surety or endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness), arising by way of
subrogation or otherwise, until such time as all of Borrowers Indebtedness that then remains is
fully paid and satisfied. In the event that Guarantor should for any reason whatsoever receive
any payment(s) from Borrower (or any other guarantor, surety or endorser of Borrower’s
Indebtedness) that Borrower (or such a third party) may owe to Guarantor for any of the reasons
stated above, Guarantor agrees to accept such payment(s) in trust for and on behalf of Lender,
advising Borrower (or the third party payee) of such fact Guarantor further
unconditionally agrees to immediately deliver such funds to Lender, with such funds being held
by Guarantor over any interim period, in trust for Lender In the event that Guarantor should for
any reason whatsoever receive any such funds from Borrower (or any third party), and Guarantor
should deposit such funds in one or more of Guarantor’s deposit accounts, no matter where
located, Lender shall have the right to attach any and all of Guarantor’s deposit accounts in
which such funds were deposited, whether or not such funds were commingled with other monies of
Guarantor, and whether or not such funds then remain on deposit in such an account or accounts.
To this end and to secure Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty, Guarantor collaterally
assigns and pledges to Lender, and grants to Lender a continuing security interest in, any and
all of Guarantor’s present and future rights, title and interest in and to all monies that
Guarantor may now and/or in the future maintain on deposit with banks, savings and loan
associations and other entities (other than tax deferred accounts with Lender), in which
Guarantor may at any time deposit any such funds that may be received from Borrower (or any
other guarantor, endorser or surety of Borrower’s Indebtedness).




DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS. As collateral security for repayment of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder and
under any additional guaranties previously granted or to be granted by Guarantor in the future,
and additionally as collateral security for any present and future indebtedness of Guarantor in
favor of Lender (with the exception of any indebtedness under a consumer credit card account),
and to the extent permitted by law, Guarantor is granting Lender a continuing security interest
in any and all funds that Guarantor may now and in the future have on deposit with Lender or in
certificates of deposit or other deposit accounts as to which Guarantor is an account holder
(with the exception of IRA, pension and other tax-deferred deposits) Guarantor further agrees
that, to the extent permitted by law. Lender may at any time apply any funds that Guarantor may
have on deposit with Lender or in certificates of deposit or other deposit accounts as to which
Guarantor is an account holder against the unpaid balance of any and all other present and
future obligations and indebtedness of Guarantor to Lender, in principal, interest, fees, costs,
expenses, and attorneys’ fees.




ADDITIONAL COVENANTS Guarantor agrees that Lender may, at its sole option, at any time, and from
time to time, without the consent of or notice to Guarantor, or any of them, or to any other
party, and without incurring any responsibility to Guarantor or to any other party, and without
impairing or releasing any of Guarantor’s obligations or liabilities under this Guaranty.




(A) Make additional secured and/or unsecured loans to Borrower.


(B) Discharge release or agree not to sue any party (including, but not limited to. Borrower
or any other guarantor, surety, or endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness), who is or may be
liable to Lender for any of Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(C) Sell, exchange, release, surrender, realize upon, or otherwise deal with, in any manner
and in any order, any collateral directly or indirectly securing repayment of any of
Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(D) Alter, renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change the manner, place, terms and/or
times of payment or other terms of Borrower’s Indebtedness, or any part thereof,
including any increase or decrease in the rate or rates of interest on any of
Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(E) Settle or compromise any of Borrower’s Indebtedness.




(F) Subordinate and/or agree to subordinate the payment of all or any part of Borrower’s
Indebtedness or Lender’s security rights in any collateral directly or indirectly securing
any such Borrowers Indebtedness, to the payment and/or security rights of any other present
and/or future creditors of Borrower.




(G) Apply any payments and/or proceeds to any of Borrower’s Indebtedness in such priority or
with such preferences as Lender may determine in its sole discretion, regardless of which of
Borrower’s Indebtedness then remains unpaid.




(H) Take or accept any other collateral security or guaranty for any or all of Borrower’s
Indebtedness.




(I) Enter into, deliver, modify, amend, or waive compliance with, any instrument or
arrangement evidencing, securing or otherwise affecting, all or any part of Borrower’s
Indebtedness.




NO IMPAIRMENT OF GUARANTOR’S OBLIGATIONS. No course of dealing between Lender and Borrower (or
any other guarantor, surety or endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness), nor any failure or delay on
the part of Lender to exercise any of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Guaranty or any
other agreement or agreements by and between Lender and Borrower (or any other guarantor, surety
or endorser), shall have the effect of impairing or releasing Guarantor’s obligations and
liabilities to Lender, or of waiving any of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Guaranty or
otherwise Any partial exercise of any rights and remedies granted to Lender shall furthermore
riot constitute a waiver of any of Lender’s other rights and remedies, it being Guarantor’s
intent and agreement that Lenders rights and remedies shall be cumulative in nature. Guarantor
further agrees that, should Borrower default under any of Borrower’s Indebtedness, any waiver or
forbearance on the part of Lender to pursue Lender’s available rights and remedies shall be
binding upon Lender only to the extent that Lender specifically agrees to such waiver or
forbearance in writing A waiver or forbearance on the part of Lender as to one event of default
shall not constitute a waiver or forbearance as to any other default.



     NO RELEASE OF GUARANTOR. Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities under this Guaranty shall
not be released, impaired, reduced, or otherwise affected by, and shall continue in full force
and effect notwithstanding the occurrence of any event, including without limitation any one or
more of the following events.



(A) The death, insolvency, bankruptcy, arrangement, adjustment, composition, liquidation,
disability, dissolution, or lack of authority (whether corporate, partnership or trust) of
Borrower (or any person acting on Borrower’s behalf), or of any other guarantor, surety or
endorser of Borrower’s Indebtedness.


(B) Any payment by Borrower, or any other party, to Lender that is held to constitute a
preferential transfer or a fraudulent conveyance under any applicable law, or any
such amounts or payment which, for any reason, Lender is required to refund or repay to
Borrower or to any other person.




(C) Any dissolution of Borrower, or any sale, lease or transfer of all or any part of
Borrower’s assets.

shall continue to be effective, and/or shall automatically and retroactively be reinstated, if a
release or discharge has occurred, or if at any time, any payment or part thereof to
Lender with respect to any of Borrower’s Indebtedness, is rescinded or must otherwise be
restored by Lender pursuant to any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, receivership, or any
other debt relief granted to Borrower or to any other party to Borrower’s Indebtedness or any
such security therefor. In the event that Lender must rescind or restore any payment received in
total or partial satisfaction of Borrower’s Indebtedness, any prior release or discharge from
the terms of this Guaranty given to Guarantor shall be without effect, and this Guaranty and
Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities hereunder shall automatically and
retroactively be renewed and/or reinstated and shall remain in full force and effect to the same
degree and extent as if such a release or discharge had never been granted. It is the intention
of Lender and Guarantor that Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities hereunder shall not be
