    DeWees
      Guaranty

    

    This
      Continuing Guaranty of Payment (“Guaranty”) is made and delivered this 30th day
      of November, 2007, by Bernard L. DeWees  (“DeWees”).

     

    Recitals:

     

    A.           3-D
      Service, Ltd. (“3-D”) has been engaged in the business of selling, repairing,
      remanufacturing and maintaining industrial electrical and mechanical equipment
      from its locations at 800 Nave Road SE in Massillon, Ohio, and at 870
      Crescentville Road in Cincinnati, Ohio.

     

    B.           DeWees
      has been the President of 3-D since its inception.  BDeWees, Inc., an
      Ohio corporation which is wholly owned by DeWees, has owned fifty percent (50%)
      of 3-D since its inception.

     

    C.           Pursuant
      to the 3-D Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Membership Interest
      Purchase Agreement”), executed on November 30, 2007, Magnetech Industrial
      Services, Inc. (“Magnetech”) has purchased all of the Membership Interest Units
      of 3-D, including all Units owned by BDeWees, Inc.

     

    D.           Magnetech
      would not have been willing to enter into the Membership Interest Purchase
      Agreement without the agreement of DeWees to execute this Guaranty, along with
      the execution of a similar agreement by Thomas J. Embrescia
      (“Embrescia”).

     

    E.           The
      consummation by Magnetech of the transactions contemplated by the Membership
      Interest Purchase Agreement is in reliance upon the assurance of DeWees that
      he
      will comply fully with all of the terms and conditions of this
      Guaranty.

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the payments, promises and other benefits made
      to
      or conveyed to DeWees, directly or indirectly, through the Membership Interest
      Purchase Agreement, and as an inducement to Magnetech to enter into the
      Membership Interest Purchase Agreement, DeWees hereby agrees as
      follows:

     

    DeWees
      hereby promises and guarantees to Magnetech that upon failure of BDeWees, Inc.,
      to promptly and fully pay any and all Indebtedness (as defined below), DeWees,
      subject to the limitations of the Cap, hereinafter defined, shall pay all
      Indebtedness to Magnetech on demand together with all expenses of enforcing
      this
      Guaranty, including attorneys’ fees, expenses and all other costs of collection
      under this Guaranty.  This Guaranty constitutes and is an absolute,
      unconditional and continuing guarantee of payment and shall apply to each and
      every default in payment by BDeWees, Inc., which gives rise to Indebtedness.
      Subject to the limits of the Cap, it is understood that repeated and successive
      demands may be made and recoveries had hereunder.

     

    In
      this
      Guaranty, “Indebtedness” means all indebtedness and obligations of BDeWees,
      Inc., now or hereafter owing to Magnetech under Section 8.02 of the Membership
      Interest

     

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    Purchase
      Agreement, whether such indebtedness or obligations be direct or indirect,
      absolute or contingent, or primary or secondary.

     

    The
      aggregate amount of DeWees’ guaranty obligations for any and all Indebtedness
      shall not exceed One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000.00)
      (the
“Cap”), provided that the Cap shall not apply to any Indebtedness
      related to any willful or fraudulent breach by BDeWees, Inc., of the Membership
      Interest Purchase Agreement or any document, instrument or agreement ancillary
      to the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement.

     

    The
      liability of DeWees hereunder shall be discharged and this Guaranty shall
      terminate 120 days after payment in full of the Indebtedness if within such
      120-day period no petition is filed by or against BDeWees, Inc., pursuant to
      the
      United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended from time to time, or under any
      similar law of any jurisdiction.  If such a petition is filed within
      said 120-day period, this Guaranty shall continue and shall remain in full
      force
      and effect until such time as the Indebtedness has been paid in full and is
      no
      longer subject to repayment by, or recovery from, Magnetech under any such
      law.

     

    Magnetech
      may take new, additional or substitute security for the Indebtedness without
      releasing or impairing the obligation of DeWees to Magnetech hereunder, which
      security may be taken without notice to DeWees.  The liability of
      DeWees hereunder shall not be affected or impaired by any irregularity in or
      amendment of the Membership Interest Purchase Agreement or any documents or
      instruments executed in connection therewith.  DeWees agrees that this
      instrument shall be binding on his heirs, personal representatives, successors
      and assigns to the extent that such persons receive any portion of the proceeds
      DeWees receives, directly or indirectly, from the Membership Interest Purchase
      Agreement, and that the rights and benefits of this Guaranty shall inure to
      the
      benefit of the successors and assigns of Magnetech.

     

    Magnetech
      shall have the right to apply all amounts received hereunder, in such amounts
      and in such proportions as Magnetech in its sole discretion shall determine,
      to
      the costs and expenses of enforcement and collection under this Guaranty and
      to
      the full or partial satisfaction of the Indebtedness.  Demand for
      payment under this Guaranty shall be effective upon Magnetech placing notice
      in
      the United States mail addressed to DeWees at the addresses stated below by
      first class, registered, or certified mail.

     

    This
      Guaranty shall be interpreted, construed and governed by the laws of the State
      of Ohio, without regard to conflicts of law principles.  The parties
      expressly consent to exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue in the federal
      and state courts of the State of Ohio. Wherever possible, each provision
      of this Guaranty shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and
      valid under applicable law, and any provision of this Guaranty prohibited or
      unenforceable under applicable law shall be ineffective only to the extent
      of
      such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining
      provisions of this Guaranty.

    

    

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    

    So
      Agreed
      and signed this 30th day of November, 2007.

    Magnetech
      DeWees Non-Compete Agreement

     

    This
Non-Compete
      Agreement (“Agreement”) is made and
      entered into this 30th day of November, 2007 (“Effective Date”), by and between
      Magnetech Industrial Services, Inc., an Indiana corporation (“Magnetech” or
“Company”) and Bernard L. DeWees (“DeWees”).

     

    Recitals:

     

    A.           Since
      March 1, 2002, 3-D Service, Ltd. (“3-D”) has been engaged in the business of
      selling, repairing, remanufacturing and maintaining industrial electrical and
      mechanical equipment from its locations at 800 Nave Road SE in Massillon, Ohio,
      and at 870 Crescentville Road in Cincinnati, Ohio (“the Business”).

     

    B.           DeWees
      has been the President of 3-D since its
      inception.  Through BDeWees, Inc., an Ohio corporation which he wholly
      owns, DeWees has also owned fifty percent (50%) of 3-D since its
      inception.

     

    C.           DeWees
      is intimately familiar with the Business, including its operations, employees,
      suppliers and customers.

     

    D.           Pursuant
      to the 3-D Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Membership Interest
      Purchase Agreement”), executed November 30, 2007, Magnetech has purchased
      substantially all of the Membership Interests of 3-D.

     

    E.           Magnetech
      would not have been willing to enter into the Membership Interest Purchase
      Agreement without the agreement of DeWees to execute this Agreement, along
      with
      the execution of a similar agreement by Thomas J. Embrescia
      (“Embrescia”).

     

    F.           The
      consummation by Magnetech of the transactions contemplated by the Membership
      Interest Purchase Agreement is in reliance upon the assurance of DeWees that
      he
      will comply fully with all of the terms and conditions of this
      Agreement.

     

    G.           3-D,
      now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Magnetech, has entered into a lease for
      facilities in Massillon, Ohio in accordance with Article 6.01(d) of the
      Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (“Lease”).

     

    H.           Magnetech
      has delivered its Promissory Note to BDeWees, Inc. in the amount of
      $2,000,000.00 in accordance with Section 3.04 of the Membership Interest
      Purchase Agreement (“Note”)

     

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and covenants herein
      exchanged and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
      sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as
      follows:

     

    1.           Consideration.  DeWees
      hereby acknowledges and
      agrees
      that his execution of this Agreement is
      a material inducement to Magnetech
      to consummate the transactions
      contemplated by the Membership Interest Purchase
      Agreement. DeWees
      further acknowledges and agrees that
      the consummation by Magnetech
      of the transactions contemplated by
      the

          1 of
          5

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

    Membership
      Interest Purchase Agreement, with the
      resulting
      significant benefits to the DeWees,
      constitutes sufficient consideration
      to support the covenants set forth in this Agreement.

     

    2.           Term.  This
      Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and continue for a period of
      two
      (2) years.

     

    3.           Covenants
      of DeWees.

     

    (a)           Covenants
      Against Competition and Solicitation.  DeWees agrees that he will
      not, for the Prohibited Period (as defined below), without the express written
      consent of Company, unless there has been a default by the Company under the
      Lease or the Note that has not been cured in the period of time allowed for
      cure
      in the Lease:

     

    (i)           Directly
      or indirectly, as a proprietor, officer, employee, partner, stockholder,
      consultant, agent, owner or otherwise, work for, render assistance or services
      to or otherwise participate in any business that competes with or engages in
      business substantially similar to the Business anywhere within the Prohibited
      Territory (as defined below);

    

    (ii)           Directly
      or indirectly, induce, hire or solicit or seek to induce, hire or solicit any
      person who was engaged with 3-D as an employee, agent, independent contractor
      or
      otherwise at any time within one year before the Closing Date to end his or
      her
      engagement or employment with Company; or

    

    (iii)           Either
      for himself or for any other person, firm, corporation or entity, solicit,
      divert or accept, or attempt to solicit, divert or accept any persons or
      entities which were customers or suppliers of 3-D at any time within one year
      before the Closing Date.

    

    For
      purposes of this Agreement, the “Prohibited Territory” means anywhere within a
      one thousand (1000) mile radius of each of 3-D’s locations (in Massillon and
      Cincinnati), unless that geographic restriction is deemed to be of unreasonably
      broad scope, and therefore unenforceable, by a court of competent jurisdiction,
      in which case the next sentence shall define the Prohibited
      Territory.  The Prohibited Territory means anywhere within a
      five-hundred (500) mile radius of each of 3-D’s locations (in Massillon and
      Cincinnati), unless that geographic restriction is deemed to be of unreasonably
      broad scope, and therefore unenforceable, by a court of competent jurisdiction,
      in which case the next sentence shall define the Prohibited
      Territory.  The Prohibited Territory means anywhere within a
      two-hundred-fifty (250) mile radius of each of 3-D’s locations (in Massillon and
      Cincinnati).

    

    The
      term
“Prohibited Period” shall be defined as a period of two (2) years from and after
      the Closing Date as defined in the Membership Interest Purchase
      Agreement.

    

    (b)           Reasonableness
      of Covenants.  DeWees acknowledges and agrees that the temporal,
      geographic and other limitations contained in this Section 3 are reasonable
      and

    
      
        
        

      

      
        Page
          2 of

    necessary
      for the proper protection of Magnetech’s investment in the Membership Interests
      of 3-D and shall be enforceable to
      the fullest extent permitted by law.

    

    (c)           Modification.  In
      the event that any term, provision or covenant contained in this Section 3
      is
      found to be unreasonable, and therefore unenforceable, by a court of competent
      jurisdiction, but would be valid and enforceable if any part thereof were
      deleted or otherwise modified, then the parties expressly agree that a court
      may
      limit the application of, or modify any such term, provision or covenant and
      proceed to enforce such term, provision or covenant as so limited or
      modified.

    

    4.           Remedies
      for Breach.  DeWees acknowledges that Company’s remedy at law
      for any breach of DeWees’ obligations under Section 3 would be inadequate and
      specifically agrees that Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief against
      him, without the necessity of proof of actual damage or the posting of a bond,
      in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity, including
      compensatory damages incurred by Company as a result of such violation and
      including costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees in enforcing any of its
      rights under Section 3.    The rights and remedies set forth
      in this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive.

     

    5.           Miscellaneous.

     

    (a)           Notices.   Any
      notice
      required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing
      and
      shall be deemed to have been duly given on the date delivered, if delivered
      in
      person, or on the date mailed, if mailed first-class, postage prepaid, certified
      mail, return receipt requested, at the address set forth below (or such other

    (b)           Assignment;
      Binding Effect. No party to this Agreement may assign this Agreement or
      such party’s right, duties and obligations hereunder without the prior written
      consent of the other party hereto; provided, that Company shall have

      personal and legal representatives, successors and assigns.  For
      purposes of this Agreement, “Affiliate” means a person or entity that directly
      or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled
      by,
      or is under common control with, another person or entity or which any person
      or
      entity owns or controls directly or indirectly 50% or more of the voting shares
      or of the value of such person or entity or has the ability to control the
      management or affairs of such person or entity.

     

    (c)           Severability.  If
      any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any
      court of competent jurisdiction or as a result of legislative or administrative
      action, such holding or action shall be strictly construed and shall not affect
      the validity or affect any other provision of this Agreement.

     

    (d)Governing
      Law; Venue.  This
      Agreement shall be construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with the
      laws of the State of Ohio, without giving effect to principles of conflicts
      of
      laws. The parties expressly consent to exclusive personal jurisdiction and
      venue
      in the federal and state courts of the State of Ohio.

    (e)           Waiver. The
      failure of any party to enforce at
      any time or for any period of time any of the provisions of this Agreement
      shall
      not be construed as a waiver of such provision or of the right of the party
      to
      enforce such provision.  The waiver of any breach or default or the
      failure to exercise any right shall not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent
      breach or default or waiver of the right to exercise any other
      right.

     

    (f)           Entire
      Agreement and Amendment. This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding
      of the parties, there being no oral or other written agreements or
      understandings between them relating to the subject matter hereof, and
      supersedes and replaces all other prior agreements, understandings or letters
      of
      intent between the parties with regard to the subject matter of this
      Agreement.  No modification, amendment, waiver or release of any
      provision of this Agreement or of any right, obligation, claim or cause of
      action arising under this Agreement shall be valid or binding for any purpose
      unless in writing and duly executed by the party against whom the same is sought
      to be asserted.
