THIS LIMITED GUARANTY AGREEMENT (this “ Guaranty ”), dated as of September 28, 2007, by and between SCOTT DORFMAN , an individual resident of Georgia (“ Guarantor ”) and CHATHAM CREDIT MANAGEMENT III, LLC, a Georgia limited liability company, individually and as agent (in such capacity, “ Agent ”) for itself and the lenders from time to time signatory to the Loan Agreement hereinafter defined (“ Lenders ”).

W I T N E S S E T H :

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and between Innotrac Corporation, a Georgia corporation (“ Borrower ”) Agent and the Persons signatory thereto from time to time as Lenders (including all annexes, exhibits and schedules thereto, and as from time to time amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “ Loan Agreement ”), the Lenders have agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to make the Term Loan to Borrower;

WHEREAS, Guarantor is a shareholder and officer of Borrower and, as such, Guarantor will derive direct and indirect economic benefits from the making of the Term Loan to the Borrower pursuant to the Loan Agreement; and

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Lending Parties to enter into the Loan Agreement and other Loan Documents and to induce Lenders to make the Term Loan as provided for in the Loan Agreement, the Guarantor has agreed to guarantee payment of the Obligations;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants hereinafter contained, and to induce Lenders to provide the Loans and other financial accommodations under the Loan Agreement, it is agreed as follows:

1.

DEFINITIONS .

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Loan Agreement, unless otherwise defined herein.

2.

THE GUARANTY .

2.1.       Guaranty of Guaranteed Obligations of Borrower . Subject to Section 9 hereof, Guarantor hereby unconditionally guarantees to Agent and Lenders, and their respective successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns, the prompt payment (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) and performance of the Obligations of Borrower under the Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents (hereinafter the “ Guaranteed Obligations ”). Guarantor agrees that this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection, and that Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty shall be primary, absolute and unconditional, irrespective of, and unaffected by:

(a)        the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability or any future amendment of, or change in this Guaranty, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, document or instrument to which Borrower and/or Guarantor are or may become a party;

(b)       the absence of any action to enforce this Guaranty or any other Loan Document or the waiver or consent by Agent and/or Lenders with respect to any of the provisions thereof;

 

 


(c)        the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect its Lien against, any Collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by Agent in respect thereof (including, without limitation, the release of any such security);

 

(d)

the insolvency of Borrower; or

(e)        any other action or circumstances which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor,

it being agreed by Guarantor that its obligations under this Guaranty shall not be discharged until the Termination Date. Guarantor shall be regarded, and shall be in the same position, as principal debtor with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor agrees that any notice or directive given at any time to Agent which is inconsistent with the waiver in the immediately preceding sentence shall be null and void and may be ignored by the Lending Parties, and, in addition, may not be pleaded or introduced as evidence in any litigation relating to this Guaranty for the reason that such pleading or introduction would be at variance with the written terms of this Guaranty, unless the Lending Parties have specifically agreed otherwise in writing. It is agreed among Guarantor and the Lending Parties that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for this Guaranty and such waivers, the Lending Parties would decline to enter into the Loan Agreement.

2.2.       Demand by Agent or Lenders . In addition to the terms of the Guaranty set forth in Section 2.1 hereof, and in no manner imposing any limitation on such terms, it is expressly understood and agreed that, if, at any time, the outstanding principal amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all accrued interest thereon) is declared to be immediately due and payable, then Guarantor shall, without demand, pay to the holders of the Guaranteed Obligations the entire outstanding Guaranteed Obligations due and owing to such holders. Payment by Guarantor shall be made to Agent in immediately available Federal funds to an account designated by Agent or at the address set forth herein for the giving of notice to Agent or at any other address that may be specified in writing from time to time by Agent, and shall be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations.

2.3.       Enforcement of Guaranty . In no event shall Agent have any obligation (although it is entitled, at its option) to proceed against Borrower or any other Borrower or any Collateral pledged to secure Guaranteed Obligations before seeking satisfaction from either of the Guarantors, and Agent may proceed, prior or subsequent to, or simultaneously with, the enforcement of Agent’s rights hereunder, to exercise any right or remedy which it may have against any Collateral, as a result of any Lien it may have as security for all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations.

2.4.       Waiver . In addition to the waivers contained in Section 2.1 hereof, Guarantor waives, and agrees that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead or in any manner whatever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, marshaling of assets or redemption laws, or exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance by Guarantor of its Guaranteed Obligations under, or the enforcement by Agent or Lenders of, this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby waives diligence, presentment and demand (whether for non-payment or protest or of acceptance, maturity, extension of time, change in nature or form of the Guaranteed Obligations, acceptance of further security, release of further security, composition or agreement arrived at as to the amount of, or the terms of, the Guaranteed Obligations, notice of adverse change in Borrower’s financial condition or any other fact which might increase the risk to Guarantor) with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations or all other demands whatsoever and waive the benefit of all provisions of law which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that, as of the date of this Guaranty, its obligations under this Guaranty are not subject to any offsets or defenses against Agent or Lenders or Borrower of any kind. Guarantor further agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty shall not be subject to any counterclaims, offsets or defenses against any Lending Party or against Borrower of any kind which may arise in the future.

2.5.       Benefit of Guaranty . The provisions of this Guaranty are for the benefit of the Lending Parties and their respective successors, transferees, endorsees and assigns, and nothing herein contained shall impair, as between Borrower and the Lending Parties, the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents. In the event all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations are transferred, indorsed or assigned by Agent or any Lender to any Person or Persons, any reference to “Agent” or “Lender” herein shall be deemed to refer equally to such Person or Persons.

2.6.       Modification of Guaranteed Obligations, Etc . Guarantor hereby acknowledges and agrees that any of the Lending Parties may at any time or from time to time, with or without the consent of, or notice to, Guarantor:

(a)        change or extend the manner, place or terms of payment of, or renew or alter all or any portion of, the Guaranteed Obligations;

(b)       take any action under or in respect of the Loan Documents in the exercise of any remedy, power or privilege contained therein or available to it at law, equity or otherwise, or waive or refrain from exercising any such remedies, powers or privileges;

 

(c)

amend or modify, in any manner whatsoever, the Loan Documents;

(d)       extend or waive the time for Borrower’s performance of, or compliance with, any term, covenant or agreement on its part to be performed or observed under the Loan Documents, or waive such performance or compliance or consent to a failure of, or departure from, such performance or compliance;

(e)        take and hold Collateral for the payment of the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed hereby or sell, exchange, release, dispose of, or otherwise deal with, any property pledged, mortgaged or conveyed, or in which Agent or Lenders have been granted a Lien, to secure any Obligations;

(f)        release anyone who may be liable in any manner for the payment of any amounts owed by Guarantor or Borrower to any Lending Party;

(g)       modify or terminate the terms of any intercreditor or subordination agreement pursuant to which claims of other creditors of Guarantor or Borrower are subordinated to the claims of the Lending Parties; and/or

(h)       apply any sums by whomever paid or however realized to any amounts owing by Guarantor or Borrower to any Lending Party in such manner as such Lending Party shall determine in its discretion;

and Agent and Lenders shall not incur any liability to Guarantor as a result thereof, and no such action shall impair or release the Guaranteed Obligations of the Guarantors under this Guaranty.

 

2.7.       Reinstatement . This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or against Borrower or Guarantor for liquidation or reorganization, should Borrower or Guarantor become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant part of Borrower’s or Guarantor’s assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by Agent or any Lender, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Guaranteed Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

(b)       acknowledges and agrees (i) that this waiver is intended to benefit the Lending Parties and shall not limit or otherwise effect Guarantor’s liability hereunder or the enforceability of this Guaranty, and (ii) that the Lending Parties and their respective successors and assigns are intended third party beneficiaries of the waivers and agreements set forth in this Section 2.8 and their rights under this Section 2.8 shall
