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
Indebtedness or against any collateral securing the Indebtedness,
this Guaranty or any other guaranty of the Indebtedness. Guarantor
will make any payments to Lender or its order, on demand, in legal
tender of the United States of America, 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.
INDEBTEDNESS . The word “Indebtedness” as used in
this Guaranty means 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, attorneys’ fees, arising from any and all
debts, liabilities and obligations of every nature or form, now
existing or hereafter arising or acquired, that Borrower
individually or collectively or interchangeably with others, owes
or will owe Lender. “Indebtedness” includes, without
limitation, loans, advances, debts, overdraft indebtedness, credit
card indebtedness, lease obligations, liabilities and obligations
under any interest rate protection agreements or foreign currency
exchange agreements or commodity price protection agreements, other
obligations, and liabilities of Borrower, and any present or future
judgments against Borrower, future advances, loans or transactions
that renew, extend, modify, refinance, consolidate or substitute
these debts, liabilities and obligations whether: voluntarily or
involuntarily incurred; due or to become due by their terms or
acceleration; absolute or contingent; liquidated or
unliquidated;
determined or undetermined; direct or indirect;
primary or secondary in nature or arising from a guaranty or
surety; secured or unsecured; joint or several or joint and
several; evidenced by a negotiable or non-negotiable instrument or
writing; originated by Lender or another or others; barred or
unenforceable against Borrower for any reason whatsoever; for any
transactions that may be voidable for any reason (such as infancy,
insanity, ultra vires or otherwise); and originated then reduced or
extinguished and then afterwards increased or
reinstated.
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.
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 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 Guaranty will take effect when received
by Lender without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any
notice to Guarantor or to Borrower, and will continue in full force
until all the Indebtedness incurred or contracted before receipt by
Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been fully and
finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor’s other
obligations under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full.
If Guarantor elects to revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do
so in writing. Guarantor’s written notice of revocation must
be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender’s address
listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in
writing. Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to new
Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of
Guarantor’s written revocation. For this purpose and without
limitation, the term new Indebtedness” does not include the
Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is
contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later
becomes absolute, liquidated, determined or due. For this purpose
and without limitation, “new Indebtedness” does not
include all or part of the Indebtedness that is: incurred by
Borrower prior to revocation; incurred under a commitment that
became binding before revocation; any renewals, extensions,
substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness. This Guaranty
shall bind Guarantor’s estate as to the Indebtedness created
both before and after Guarantor’s death or incapacity,
regardless of Lender’s actual notice of Guarantor’s
death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor’s executor or
administrator or other legal representative may terminate this
Guaranty in the same manner in which Guarantor might have
terminated it and with the same effect. Release of any other
guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of the Indebtedness
shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty. A
revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall
not affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors under this
Guaranty. Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty shall
be in addition to any of Guarantor’s
2
obligations, or any of them, under any other
guaranties of the Indebtedness or any other person heretofore or
hereafter given to Lender unless such other guaranties are modified
or revoked in writing; and this Guarantor shall not, unless
provided in this Guaranty, affect, invalidate, or supersede any
such other guaranty. It is anticipated that fluctuations may occur
in the aggregate amount of the Indebtedness covered by this
Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees that
reductions in the amount of the Indebtedness, even to zero dollars
($0.00), shall not constitute a termination of this Guaranty. This
Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and Guarantor’s heirs,
successors and assigns so long as any of the Indebtedness remains
unpaid and even though the Indebtedness may from time to time be
zero dollars ($0.00).
GUARANTOR’S AUTHORIZATION TO
LENDER . Guarantor
authorizes Lender, either before or after any revocation hereof,
without notice or demand and without lessening Guarantor’s
liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to
revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional
secured or unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other
goods to Borrower, or otherwise to extend additional credit to
Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise, renew, extend, accelerate,
or otherwise change one or more times the time for payment or other

the original loan term; (C) to take and hold security for the
payment of this Guaranty or the Indebtedness, and exchange,

sell, lease, assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer, or otherwise
dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor’s assets, or

Guarantor will provide to Lender financial and credit information

all material respects and fairly present Guarantor’s
financial condition as of the dates the financial information is

circumstances which might in any way affect Guarantor’s risks

request for information, Lender shall have no obligation to
disclose to Guarantor any information or documents acquired by
Lender in the course of its relationship with Borrower.

presentment, protest, demand, or notice of any kind, including
notice of change of any terms of repayment of the Indebtedness,

defense of Borrower, any other guarantor or surety or any other
person; (I) the cessation from any cause whatsoever, other
than payment in full, of the Indebtedness; (J) the application
of proceeds of the Indebtedness by Borrower for purposes other than
the purposes understood and intended by Guarantor and Lender;
(K) any act of omission or commission by Lender which directly
or indirectly results in or contributes to the discharge of
Borrower or any other guarantor or surety, or the Indebtedness, or

change in the interest rate, and including any such modification or
change in terms after revocation of this Guaranty on the
Indebtedness incurred prior to such revocation.
Guarantor waives all rights of subrogation,
reimbursement, indemnification, and contribution and any other
rights and defenses that are or may become available to Guarantor
by reason of California Civil Code Sections 2787 to 2855,
inclusive.
Guarantor waives all rights and any defenses
arising out of an election of remedies by Lender even though that
the election of remedies, such as a non-judicial foreclosure with
respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed
Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against
Borrower by operation of Section 580d of the California Code
of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that
Guarantor may have because Borrower’s obligation is secured
by real property. This means among other things: (N) Lender
may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or
personal property collateral pledged by Borrower. (0) If
Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by
Borrower: (1) the amount of Borrower’s obligation may be
reduced only by the price for which the collateral is sold at the
foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the
sale price. (2) Lender may collect from Guarantor even if
Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has
destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower.
This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and
defenses Guarantor may have because Borrower’s obligation is
secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but
are not limited to, any rights and defenses based upon
Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the Code of Civil
Procedure.
Guarantor understands and agrees that the
foregoing waivers are unconditional and irrevocable waivers of
substantive rights and defenses to which Guarantor might otherwise
be entitled under state and federal law. The rights and defenses
waived include, without limitation, those provided by California
laws of suretyship and guaranty, anti-deficiency laws, and the
Uniform Commercial Code. Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor has
provided these waivers of rights and defenses with the intention
that they be fully relied upon by Lender. Guarantor further
understands and agrees that this Guaranty is a separate and
independent contract between Guarantor and Lender, given for full
and ample consideration, and is enforceable on its own terms. Until
all of the Indebtedness is paid in full, Guarantor waives any right
to enforce any remedy Guarantor may have against the Borrower or
any other guarantor, surety, or other person,
5
and further, Guarantor waives any right to
participate in any collateral for the Indebtedness now or hereafter
held by Lender.
Guarantor’s Understanding With Respect To
Waivers . 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, the 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 or public policy.
Subordination of Borrower’s Debts to
Guarantor . Guarantor
agrees that the Indebtedness, whether now existing or hereafter
created, shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have
or hereafter acquire against Borrower, whether or not Borrower
becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby expressly subordinates any
claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any account
whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have
against Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent
liquidation of the assets of Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an
assignment for the benefit of creditors, by voluntary liquidation,
or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the payment of
the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and
shall be first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness. Guarantor
does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or
acquire against Borrower or against any assignee or trustee in
bankruptcy of Borrower; provided however, that such assignment
shall be effective only for the purpose of assuring to Lender full
payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If Lender so requests,
any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing any
debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with
a legend that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall be
delivered to Lender. Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby
authorized, in the name of Guarantor, from time to time to file
financing statements and continuation statements and to execute
documents and to take such other actions as Lender deems necessary
or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its rights under
this Guaranty.
Miscellaneous Provisions . The following miscellaneous provisions are a
part of this Guaranty:
AMENDMENTS . This Guaranty, together with any Related
Documents, constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of
the parties as to the matters set forth in this Guaranty. No
alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty shall be effective
unless given in writing and signed by the party or parties sought
to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
ATTORNEYS’ FEES; EXPENSES
. Guarantor agrees to pay upon
demand all of Lenders costs and expenses, including Lender’s
attorneys’ fees and Lenders legal expenses, incurred in
connection with the enforcement of this Guaranty. Lender may hire
or pay someone else to help enforce this Guaranty, and Guarantor
shall pay the costs and expenses of such enforcement. Costs and
expenses include Lenders attorneys fees and legal expenses whether
or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys’ fees and
legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to
modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and
any anticipated post-judgment collection services. Guarantor also
shall pay all court costs and such additional fees as may be
directed by the court.
CAPTION HEADINGS . Caption headings in this Guaranty are for
convenience purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or
define the provisions of this Guaranty.
6
GOVERNING LAW. This Guaranty will be governed by federal law
applicable to Lender and, to the extent not preempted by federal
law, the laws of the State of California without regard to its
conflicts of law provisions.
CHOICE OF VENUE . If there is a lawsuit, Guarantor agrees upon
Lender’s request to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts
of Los Angeles County, State of California.
INTEGRATION . Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has
read and fully understands the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor
has had the opportunity to be advised by Guarantor’s attorney
with respect to entering into this Guaranty. Guarantor further
agrees that the Guaranty represents the final agreement between
Guarantor and Lender regarding the matters addressed therein and
therefore: (a) incorporates all negotiations of the parties
relating to the Guaranty; (b) there are no unwritten oral
agreements between Lender and Guarantor, and (c) this Guaranty
may not be contradicted by evidence of any prior, contemporaneous,
or subsequent oral agreements or understandings of Lender and
Guarantor. Guarantor hereby indemnifies and holds Lender harmless
from all losses, claims, damages, and costs (including
Lender’s attorney’s fees) suffered by Lender as a
result of any breach by Guarantor of the warranties,
representations and agreements of this Paragraph.
INTERPRETATION . In all cases where there is more than one
Borrower or Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the
singular shall be deemed to have been used in the plural where the
context and construction so require; and where there is more than
one Borrower named in this Guaranty or when this Guaranty is
executed by more than one Guarantor, the words
“Borrower’ and “Guarantor” respectively
shall mean all and any one or more of them. The words
“Guarantor,” “Borrower,” and
“Lender” include the heirs, successors, assigns, and
transferees of each of them. If a court finds that any provision of
this Guaranty is not valid or should not be enforced, that fact by
itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty will not be
valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of the
provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty
may be found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of
Borrower or Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited
liability companies, or similar entities, it is not necessary for
Lender to inquire into the powers of
