RECITALS
 
WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Note, the Lender has agreed to lend the Debtor $500,000; 
 
WHEREAS, the Guarantor has agreed to personally guaranty repayment of the Note as security for the obligations of the Debtor under the Note; 
 
WHEREAS, Guarantor will benefit, directly or indirectly, from repayment of the Note contemplated by the Note; and
 
WHEREAS, it is a condition to the effectiveness of the Note that this Guaranty Agreement be executed and delivered by the parties hereto. 
 
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby agrees for the benefit of Lender as follows:
 
1. GUARANTY.
 
1.1 Guaranty.
 
(a) Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Lender repayment of the Note.
 
(b) Guarantor, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives presentation to, demand for payment from and protest to, as the case may be, Debtor or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment, notice of acceleration and notice of intent to accelerate. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by: (i) the failure of Lender to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy against Debtor under the provisions of the Note or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any provision hereof or thereof; or (iii) any rescission, waiver, compromise, acceleration, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Note.
 
(c) Guarantor further agrees that this Guaranty Agreement constitutes a guaranty of performance and of payment when due (beyond applicable notice and cure periods) and not just of collection, and waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to require that any resort be had by Lender to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any balance of any deposit, account or credit on the books of Lender in favor of Debtor.

(d) Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that Guarantor expects to derive benefit, directly and indirectly, from the successful operations of Debtor and any financial accommodations arising from the Note. 
 
1.2 Limitation on Guaranteed Amount.
 
(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty Agreement, the amount guaranteed by Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the extent, if any, required so that its obligations under this Guaranty Agreement shall not be rendered voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or to being set aside or annulled under any applicable state law or foreign statute relating to fraud on creditors or under common law. In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, any rights of subrogation or contribution which Guarantor may have under this Guaranty Agreement or applicable statute shall be taken into account.
 
(b) Without limiting the provisions of Section 1.2(a) above, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty Agreement, the continuing liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement shall be limited to the Shortfall Shares.
 
2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; COVENANTS.
 
2.1 Guarantor makes the following representations and warranties, all of which shall survive the execution and delivery of this Guaranty Agreement:
 
(i) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty Agreement (a) will not violate any provision of applicable law, any order of any court or other agency of the United States or any state thereof, applicable to Guarantor or any of his properties or assets; (b) does not require the consent or approval of any Person or entity, including but not limited to any governmental authority, or any filing or registration of any kind; and (c) is the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor enforceable against Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that enforcement may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and general principles of equity; and
 
(ii) the execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty Agreement will not result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature whatsoever upon any properties or assets of Guarantor other than pursuant to this Guaranty Agreement or the Note.
 
3. MISCELLANEOUS
 
3.1 Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given to the addresses first set forth above in the Preamble.
 
3.2 Binding Effect; Several Agreement; Assignments. Whenever in this Guaranty Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of Guarantor that are contained in this Guaranty Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of each party hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Guaranty Agreement shall become effective as to Guarantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of Guarantor shall have been delivered to Lender, and a counterpart shall have been executed on behalf of Lender, and thereafter shall be binding upon Guarantor and Lender and their respective successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Guarantor, Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, except that Guarantor shall not have the right to assign its rights or obligations hereunder or an interest herein (and any such attempted assignment shall be void).
