WHEREAS, White River Capital, Inc., an Indiana corporation ("Maker") has
made and delivered to Richard M. DeVos Charitable Lead Annuity Trust No. 2 (the
"Creditor") its promissory note in the original principal amount of
$15,000,000.00 (hereinafter, the "Note") evidencing a loan made by Creditor to
Maker pursuant to that certain Note Purchase Agreement by and between Maker and
Creditor dated March 9, 2005 (the "Note Purchase Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, as a condition of making the loan pursuant to the Note Purchase
Agreement and accepting the Note, the Creditor has required that the undersigned
guarantor ("Guarantor") execute and deliver this Guaranty.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Guarantor hereby agrees with Creditor as follows:
1. Guarantor hereby guarantees, absolutely and unconditionally, the full
and prompt payment, when due, of all of the obligations of the Maker pursuant to
the Note Purchase Agreement, the Note and all other documents and agreements
executed by the Maker in connection therewith and for all expenses, including
attorneys' fees, incurred by Creditor in the enforcement of this Guaranty
(collectively, the "Obligations").
2. Upon receipt of a written demand from the Creditor upon any default in
payment or performance of any of the Obligations, the Guarantor shall
immediately tender to the Creditor the full amount thereof.
3. Any payments made to the Creditor hereunder or pursuant hereto shall not
reduce, eliminate, or be applied or credited to any separate obligation of the
Guarantor to the Creditor.
4. The Creditor may demand payment from the undersigned of any installment
(or portion thereof) of principal or interest on the Note when due, and the
undersigned shall immediately pay the same to the Creditor, and the Creditor may
demand payment or performance of any or all of the other Obligations, when such
payment or performance is due or required and the Guarantor shall immediately
pay or perform the same, whether or not the Creditor has (i) declared an Event
of Default under the Note or the Note Purchase Agreement; or (ii) accelerated
payment of the Note, or (iii) commenced repossession of, or foreclosure of any
security interest, mortgage or other lien in, any of the collateral securing the
Note, or (iv) otherwise exercised its rights and remedies hereunder or under the
Note, the documents related thereto or applicable law.
5. Guarantor hereby waives (i) presentment, demand, notice of nonpayment,
protest and notice of protest and dishonor on the Obligations; (ii) notice of
acceptance of this Guaranty by the Creditor; and (iii) notice of the creation or
incurrence of the Obligations by Maker.

6. The Guarantor authorizes Creditor, without notice or demand and
without affecting its liability hereunder, from time to time:
(a) to renew, compromise, extend, accelerate or otherwise change the
time for payment, or otherwise change the terms, of the Note, including
increase or decrease of the rate of interest thereon;
(b) to receive and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or
any of the Obligations and exchange, enforce, waive, release, fail to
perfect, sell, or otherwise dispose of any such security;
(c) to apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale
thereof as the Creditor in its sole discretion may determine; and
(d) to release or substitute any one or more of any endorsers or
guarantors of the Indebtedness.

guarantor, person, corporation or entity, or their properties or estates, or any
other right or remedy whatsoever, prior to enforcing this Guaranty.

unconditional guaranty without regard to (i) the validity, regularity or
enforceability of the Obligations or the disaffirmance thereof in any insolvency
or bankruptcy proceeding relating to the Maker, or (ii) any event or any conduct
or action of any other party which might otherwise constitute a legal or
equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor but for this provision.

the undersigned until the Obligations are paid and satisfied in full in cash,
and until Creditor has delivered to Guarantor a written release hereof.
10. Any modification or waiver of Guarantor's obligations hereunder must be
contained in a writing signed by Creditor.
11. Guarantor hereby waives any right that the undersigned may have to
collect or seek to collect from the Maker or any other guarantor the claim, if
any, by subrogation or otherwise, acquired by the Guarantor through payment of
any part or all of the Obligations, unless and until such time as the
Obligations are paid and satisfied in full in cash.
12. The possession of this instrument of guaranty by the Creditor shall be
conclusive evidence of due execution and delivery hereof by the Guarantor.
13. This Guaranty shall be binding upon the legal representatives,
successors and assigns of the undersigned, and shall inure to the benefit of the
Creditor and its successors, assigns and legal representatives. Notwithstanding
