(“Lender”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, pursuant to that certain Loan and Security Agreement dated as of the date hereof by and between MAINTECH, INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation (“Borrower”) and Lender (including all annexes, exhibits and schedules thereto, and as amended, amended and restated, supplemented and otherwise modified, renewed or replaced from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), Lender has agreed to make loans and other financial accommodations to Borrower; and

WHEREAS, Guarantor is the indirect owner and holder of all of the Equity Interests of Borrower and, as a result thereof, Guarantor will benefit, directly or indirectly, from the credit facility and other financial accommodations provided to Borrower under the Loan Agreement; and

WHEREAS, it is a condition to the effectiveness of the Loan Agreement that this Guaranty Agreement be executed and delivered by the Guarantor.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby agrees for the benefit of Lender as follows:

1. DEFINITIONS. Except as specifically defined in this Guaranty Agreement, capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given thereto in the Loan Agreement (as in effect on the date hereof). As used herein, “Other Loan Documents” mean the Loan Documents other than the Loan Agreement and this Guaranty Agreement.

2. GUARANTY.

2.1 Guaranty.

(a) Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Lender the due and punctual payment and performance of the Obligations (the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Guarantor further agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it, and it will remain bound upon this Guaranty Agreement notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Guaranteed Obligation.

(b) Guarantor, to the extent permitted by applicable law, waives (A)(i) presentation to, demand for payment from and protest to, as the case may be, Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) notice of protest for nonpayment, notice of acceleration and notice of intent to accelerate; and (iii) the future change to the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of all or any part of the Obligations. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by: (B) (i) the failure of Lender to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy against Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations under the provisions of the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any extension or renewal of any provision of the Loan Agreement or any of the Other Loan Documents;

(iii) any rescission, waiver, compromise, acceleration, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of the Loan Agreement or of any Other Loan Document; (iv) the discharge or release by Lender of any other guarantor of such guarantor’s obligations (or any portion thereof); or (v) the failure to perfect any security interest in or the release, exchange, waiver or foreclosure of any security held by Lender for the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees that but for this Guaranty Agreement and the waivers made by Guarantor, Lender would not extend financial accommodations to Borrower.

(c) Guarantor further agrees that this Guaranty Agreement constitutes a guaranty of performance and of payment when due and not just of collection, and waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to require that any resort be had by Lender to any security held for payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any balance of any deposit, account or credit on the books of Lender in favor of Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or to any other Person.

(d) Guarantor hereby expressly acknowledges that Lender shall have no responsibility to keep Guarantor informed of the financial condition of Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any circumstances affecting Borrower’s collateral or the ability of Borrower to perform under the Loan Agreement.

(e) This Guaranty Agreement shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other instrument evidencing any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor or by any other circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations (other than final payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations in cash) which might otherwise constitute a defense to this Guaranty Agreement. Lender makes no representation or warranty in respect to any such circumstances and has no duty or responsibility whatsoever to Guarantor in respect to the management and maintenance of the Guaranteed Obligations or Borrower’s collateral.

2.2 No Impairment of Guaranty. Except as otherwise provided by Section 2.4 of this Guaranty Agreement, the Guaranteed Obligations shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including, without limitation, any claim or waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense (other than by payment of the Guaranteed Obligations in full in cash) or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy hereunder or under the Loan Agreement or any other Loan Document, by any waiver or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Guaranteed Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of Guarantor as a matter of law, unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations are paid in full.

2.3 Continuation and Reinstatement, etc. Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of principal of or interest on any Guaranteed Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by Lender upon the bankruptcy or other reorganization of Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise.

In furtherance of the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement, and not in limitation of any other right which Lender may have at law or in equity against Borrower or any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by virtue hereof, upon failure of Borrower to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice or otherwise, Guarantor hereby promises to and will, upon demand by Lender, forthwith pay or cause to be paid to Lender in cash an amount equal to the unpaid amount of all Guaranteed Obligations arising in connection with the Loan Agreement, together with interest on the portion thereof that represents outstanding Obligations at the rate provided for in the Loan Agreement.

All rights of Guarantor against Borrower or any other guarantor of the Obligations arising by way of right of subrogation or otherwise shall in all respects be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full only in cash of all the Guaranteed Obligations to Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full in cash, (i) Guarantor hereby postpones and agrees not to exercise any right of subrogation, contribution or indemnification Guarantor has or may have as against Borrower or any other guarantor of the Obligations with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) Guarantor hereby postpones and agrees not to exercise any right to proceed against Borrower or any other Person now or hereafter liable on account of the Obligations for contribution, indemnity, reimbursement, or any other similar rights (irrespective of whether direct or indirect, liquidated or contingent) with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations; and (iii) Guarantor hereby postpones and agrees not to exercise any right it may have to proceed or to seek recourse against or with respect to any property or asset of Borrower or any other Person now or hereafter liable on account of the Obligations in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations. If an amount shall be paid to Guarantor for the account of Borrower in respect of the rights referred to in this paragraph, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of Lender to be credited and applied to the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

2.4 Limitation on Guaranteed Amount. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Guaranty Agreement, the amount guaranteed by Guarantor hereunder shall be limited (a) to an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $3,000,000, and (b) to such lesser amount to the extent, if any, required so that Guarantor’s obligations under this Guaranty Agreement shall not be rendered voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code or to being set aside or annulled under any applicable state law or foreign statute relating to fraud on creditors or under common law. In determining the limitations under the foregoing clause (b), if any, on the amount of Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, any rights of subrogation or contribution which Guarantor may have under this Guaranty Agreement or applicable statute shall be taken into account.
