COMMERCIAL CORP.
GUARANTY
Los Angeles, California
For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, TAVERNITI SO JEANS, LLC (hereinafter referred to as
"Guarantor") hereby unconditionally and irrevocably delivers this Guaranty to
FTC COMMERCIAL CORP. (hereinafter referred to as "FTC") and hereby
unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to FTC, and any transferee of this
Guaranty or of any liability guaranteed hereby, the full and prompt payment and
performance of all present and future liabilities, obligations and indebtedness
of BLUE HOLDINGS, INC. (hereinafter referred to as the "Principal") to FTC
irrespective of their nature, the time they arise, when due, whether absolute or
contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, legal or equitable, whether the
Principal is liable individually or jointly or with others, and whether recovery
thereof is or becomes barred by a statute of limitations or otherwise becomes
unenforceable (individually a "liability" and collectively the "liabilities").
This Guaranty is a guaranty of prompt payment and performance (and not merely a
guaranty of collection). If any liability guaranteed hereby is not paid or
performed when due, Guarantor hereby agrees to and will immediately pay or
perform same, without resort by the holder thereof to any other person or party.
The liabilities include all renewals or extensions in whole or in part of any of
liabilities and include all present and future obligations and liabilities of
the Principal to FTC under the Factoring Agreement dated July 25, 2005, the
Inventory Facility Agreement dated July 25, 2005 and various related
instruments, documents and agreements, as amended, modified or supplemented from
time to time (hereinafter collectively and separately referred to as the
"Factoring Agreements") between FTC and the Principal and the full performance
by Principal of all things to be done by Principal pursuant to the Factoring
Agreements and shall further include any and all damages, losses, costs,
interest, charges, attorney's fees and expenses of every kind, nature and
description suffered or incurred by FTC, arising in any manner out of or in any
way connected with, or growing out of, the liabilities. As used herein, the term
person includes natural persons, partnerships, limited liability companies,
trusts, and incorporated and unincorporated entities and associations of every
kind.
The obligation of Guarantor to FTC hereunder is primary, unlimited, absolute and
unconditional. Any payment of Guarantor hereunder may be applied to any of the
liabilities which FTC may choose. The obligation of Guarantor hereunder is in
addition to and shall not prejudice or be prejudiced by any other agreement,
instrument, surety, security or guaranty (including any agreement, instrument,
surety or guaranty signed by Guarantor) which FTC may now or hereafter hold
relative to any of the liabilities. Guarantor, if more than one, shall be
jointly and severally liable hereunder and the term "Guarantor" wherever used
herein shall mean Guarantor or any one or more of them. Any entity signing this
Guaranty shall be bound hereby, whether or not any other entity signs this
Guaranty at any time.
FTC and Guarantor acknowledge that there may be future advances by FTC to the
Principal (although FTC may be under no obligation to make such advances) and
that the number and amount of the liabilities are unlimited and may fluctuate
from time to time hereafter. Guarantor expressly agrees that Guarantor's
obligation hereunder shall remain absolute, primary and unconditional
notwithstanding such future advances and fluctuations, if any, and agree that,
in any event, this Guaranty is a continuing guaranty and shall remain in force
at all times hereafter, whether there are any liabilities outstanding or not,
until all originals hereof are returned to Guarantor by FTC or until a written
notice from Guarantor terminating this Guaranty has been received and
acknowledged by FTC, but such termination shall not release Guarantor from
liability for payment of (i) any and all liabilities (as hereinbefore defined)
then in existence, (ii) any renewals or extensions thereof, in whole or in part,
whether such renewals or extensions are made before or after such termination,
and (iii) any damages, losses, costs, interest, charges, attorney's fees or
expenses then or thereafter incurred in connection with said liabilities or any
renewals or extensions thereof.
As security for the payment of the liabilities and the obligations of Guarantor
hereunder, Guarantor hereby assigns and grants a security interest to FTC in (i)
any existing or hereafter created lien or security interest in favor of
Guarantor in any property of the Principal; and (ii) all property of Guarantor
in or coming into the possession, control, or custody of FTC, or in which FTC

has or hereafter acquires a lien, security interest, or other right. Guarantor
hereby agrees that any rights Guarantor may now or hereafter have in any
collateral securing any of the liabilities or against the Principal or any
property of the Principal, including rights arising by virtue of subrogation or
otherwise, shall be subordinate and junior to FTC's rights to said collateral or
property and to FTC's indefeasible right to the prior payment of the
liabilities. Guarantor further authorizes FTC, without notice or demand, to
apply any indebtedness due or to become due to Guarantor from FTC in
satisfaction of any of the liabilities and Guarantor's obligations hereunder,
including, but not limited to, the right to set-off against any deposits of
Guarantor with FTC.
Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that, at any time or times, without notice
to or further approval of Guarantor or the Principal, and without in any way
affecting the obligations of Guarantor hereunder, FTC may, with or without
consideration, (i) release, compromise, or agree not to sue, in whole or in
part, the Principal, Guarantor or any other obligor, guarantor, endorser or
surety of the Factoring Agreements any of the liabilities; (ii) waive, rescind,
renew, extend, modify, increase, decrease, delete, terminate, amend; or
accelerate in accordance with its terms, either in whole or in part, the
Factoring Agreements or any of the terms thereof, any of the liabilities, or any
agreement, covenant, condition, or obligation of or with the Principal,
Guarantor, or any other obligor, guarantor, endorser or surety upon the
Factoring Agreements and any of the liabilities; and (iii) apply any payment
received from the Principal, Guarantor or any other obligor, guarantor, endorser
or surety upon any of the liabilities to any of the liabilities which FTC may
choose.
Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that FTC may at any time, either with or
without consideration, surrender, release or receive any property or other
security of any kind or nature whatsoever held by FTC or any person on its
behalf or for its account securing any indebtedness of the Principal or any
liability, or substitute any collateral so held by FTC for other collateral of
like kind, or of any kind, without notice to or further consent from Guarantor,
and such surrender, receipt, release or substitution shall not in any way affect
the obligation of Guarantor hereunder. FTC shall have full authority to adjust,
compromise and receive less than the amount due upon any such collateral, and
may enter into any accord and satisfaction agreement with respect to the same as
may seem advisable to FTC without affecting the obligation of Guarantor
hereunder, which shall remain absolute, primary and unconditional. FTC shall be
under no duty to undertake to collect upon such collateral or any part thereof,
and shall not be liable for any negligence or mistake in judgment in handling,
disposing of, obtaining, or failing to collect upon, or perfecting a
