Exhibit 10.2


GUARANTEE


 


 


 


GUARANTEE, dated as of
April 25, 2014, by TWIN CITIES POWER HOLDINGS, LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company, ("Guarantor"), in favor of
NOBLE AMERICAS ENERGY SOLUTIONS LLC (the "Counterparty"). 


 


 


1.       Guarantee. To
induce the Counterparty to enter into transactions (the "Transactions") with DISCOUNT ENERGY GROUP, LLC
(“Affiliate”), Guarantor guarantees to the Counterparty and its successors, endorsees and assigns the prompt
payment when due, subject to any applicable grace period, of all present and future payment obligations of Affiliate to the
Counterparty arising out of Transactions (the "Obligations"). The maximum aggregate liability of Guarantor under
the Guarantee is limited to the amount of ONE MILLION U.S. DOLLARS (U.S. $1,000,000.00) plus costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred in enforcing this Guarantee against the Guarantor. 


 


 


2.     Nature of
Guarantee. Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall not be affected by the existence, validity, enforceability,
perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor or by any other circumstance relating to the Obligations that might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of or defense to Guarantor not available to Affiliate. This is a
guarantee of payment and not collection. Guarantor agrees that the Counterparty may resort to Guarantor for payment of any of
the Obligations whether or not the Counterparty shall have resorted to any collateral therefor or shall have proceeded
against Affiliate or any other obligor principally or secondarily obligated with respect to any of the Obligations. The
Counterparty shall not be obligated to file any claim relating to the Obligations in the event that Affiliate becomes subject
to a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding, and the failure of the Counterparty to so file shall not affect the
Guarantor’s obligations hereunder. If any payment to the Counterparty in respect of any Obligations is rescinded or
must otherwise be returned for any reason whatsoever, Guarantor


shall remain liable hereunder with respect to such
Obligations as if such payment had not been made. Guarantor reserves the right to (a) set-off against any payment owing hereunder
any amounts owing by the Counterparty to Affiliate and (b) assert defenses which Affiliate may have to payment of any Obligations
other than defenses arising from the bankruptcy or insolvency of Affiliate and other defenses expressly waived hereby.

3.     Changes in Obligations,
Collateral therefor and Agreements Relating thereto; Waiver of Certain Notices. Guarantor agrees that the Counterparty may
at any time and from time to time, either before or after the maturity thereof, without notice to or further consent of such Guarantor,
extend the time of payment of, exchange or surrender any collateral for, or renew any of the Obligations, and may also make any
agreement with Affiliate or with any other party to or person liable on any of the Obligations or interested therein, for the
extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release thereof, in whole or in part, or for any modification of the terms
thereof or of any agreement between the Counterparty and Affiliate or any such other party or person, without in any way impairing
or affecting this Guarantee. Guarantor waives notice of the acceptance of this Guarantee and of the Obligations, presentment,
demand for payment, notice of dishonor and protest. Without limiting the foregoing, in accordance with Section 2856 of the California
Civil Code, Guarantor waives any and all other rights and defenses available to Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855,
inclusive, 2899 and 3433 of the California Civil Code, including without limitation any and all rights or defenses Guarantor may
have by reason of protection afforded to Affiliate with respect to any of the Obligations, or to any other guarantor of any of
the Obligations with respect to any of such guarantor’s obligations under its guaranty, in each case pursuant to the laws
of the state of California limiting or discharging the Affiliate’s or such guarantor’s obligations.  


 


 


4.     Expenses. Guarantor
agrees to pay on demand all fees and out of pocket expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonably allocated fees of in-house
counsel and other reasonable fees of the Counterparty's counsel, and reasonable expenses of each of the foregoing) in any way
relating to the enforcement or protection of the rights of the Counterparty hereunder; provided, that Guarantor shall not be liable
for any expenses of the Counterparty if no payment under this Guarantee is due. 


 


 


5.     Subrogation. Upon
payment of any of the Obligations, Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Counterparty against Affiliate with respect
to such Obligations, and the Counterparty agrees to take at the Guarantor’s expense such steps as Guarantor may reasonably
request to implement such subrogation. 


 


 


6.     No
Waiver; Cumulative Rights. No failure on the part of the Counterparty to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right,
remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by the Counterparty of any
right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power. Each and every right, remedy
and power hereby granted to the Counterparty or allowed it by law or other agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of
any other, and may be exercised by the Counterparty at any time or from time to time.

as it would otherwise relate (but for such termination) to Transactions entered into after the effectiveness of such termination.
Such termination shall not affect the obligations hereunder of Guarantor in respect to the Transactions entered into before such
effectiveness as to which this Guarantee shall, in all respects, remain in full force and effect. 


 


 


11.     Governing Law. This
Guarantee shall in all respects be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard
to principles of conflicts of laws.
