part thereof and in enforcing this Guaranty.

         This Guaranty is, and is intended to be, a continuing guaranty of the
payment of the Indebtedness (irrespective of the aggregate amount thereof)
independent of and in addition to any other guaranty, indorsement or collateral
held by Secured Party therefor whether or not furnished by the undersigned. The

by the undersigned hereunder until all of the Indebtedness is paid in full.

without releasing, impairing or affecting the undersigned's obligations
hereunder, from time to time: (i) to take from any party and hold collateral for
the payment of the Indebtedness or any part thereof, and to exchange, enforce or
release such collateral or any part thereof; (ii) to accept and hold any
indorsement or guaranty of payment of the Indebtedness or any part thereof and
to release or substitute any such indorser or guarantor, or any party who has
given any security interest in any collateral as security for the payment of the
Indebtedness or any part thereof, or any other party in any way obligated to pay
the Indebtedness or any part thereof; (iii) to direct the order or manner of the
disposition of any and all collateral and the enforcement of any and all

Secured Party, in its sole discretion, may determine; and (iv) to determine
how, when and what application of payments and credits, if any, shall be made
on the Indebtedness or any part thereof, and to apply the same upon principal
or interest or the portion thereof, if any, in excess of the amount of this
Guaranty.

         No delay or omission by Secured Party in exercising any right or remedy
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right or remedy,
and no single or partial exercise thereof shall preclude any other or further
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. All rights and
remedies of Secured Party hereunder are cumulative.

         This Guaranty is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected
by any act or thing whatsoever, except as herein provided. No modification or
amendment of any provision of this Guaranty shall be effective unless in writing
and subscribed by a duly authorized officer of Secured Party.

         This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the
State of New York, whose laws the undersigned expressly elects to apply to this
Guaranty. The undersigned agrees that any action or proceeding brought to
enforce or arising out of this Guaranty may be commenced in the New York Supreme
Court for the County of Erie, or in the District Court of the United States for
the Western District of New York, and the undersigned waives personal service of
process and agrees that a summons and complaint commencing an action or
proceeding in any such court shall be properly served and shall confer personal
jurisdiction if served by registered mail to the undersigned, or as otherwise
provided by the laws of the State of New York or the United States.

         The undersigned hereby knowingly, voluntarily, unconditionally and
irrevocably waives the right to a trial by jury in every jurisdiction in any
action, proceeding or counterclaim brought by or against the undersigned, its
personal representatives, successors or assigns, in respect of any matter
arising out of this Guaranty or the Indebtedness, including without limitation
any exercise of rights hereunder, any attempt to cancel, void, or rescind this
Guaranty, and any course of conduct or course of dealing in connection herewith.
