This Guaranty Agreement is executed by each Guarantor pursuant to the Loan and Security Agreement and is for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders. As an inducement to the Lenders to make the Revolving Loans and extend and continue to extend credit and other financial accommodations to the Borrowers under the Loan Documents, and to the Issuing Bank to provide Letters of Credit as provided by the Loan and Security Agreement, for value received, each Guarantor hereby unconditionally, irrevocably and absolutely guarantees the prompt and full payment and performance of the Guaranteed Obligations when due or declared to be due and at all times thereafter. 2. Nature of Guaranty. This Guaranty Agreement is and shall be an absolute, unconditional, irrevocable, and continuing unlimited guaranty of payment, and not solely of collection. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement and the other Loan Documents, without setoff or counterclaim, and regardless of any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Lenders with respect thereto. The Guaranteed Obligations may be increased, reduced, or paid in full at any time and from time to time without affecting the liability or obligation of any Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement with respect to all Guaranteed Obligations, whenever incurred or arising. All Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter arising shall be conclusively presumed to have been GUARANTY AGREEMENT - Page 2 made or acquired in acceptance hereof. Each Guarantor shall be liable, jointly and severally, with the Borrowers and any other Person now or hereafter obligated in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any portion thereof. It is the intention of each Guarantor and the Lenders that such Guarantor's liabilities and obligations hereunder shall not be discharged except by such Guarantor's full and complete payment and performance of such liabilities and obligations and then only to the extent of such payment and performance (to the extent not otherwise satisfied by any Borrower or any other Person now or hereafter obligated in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations). 3. Representations and Warranties. Each of the representations and warranties in the Loan and Security Agreement relating to each Guarantor are incorporated by reference and restated herein.

This Guaranty Agreement is given by each Guarantor in furtherance of the direct and indirect business interests and corporate purposes of such Guarantor, and is necessary to the conduct, promotion, and attainment of the businesses of the Borrowers and such Guarantor. The value of the consideration received and to be received by each Guarantor is reasonably worth at least as much as the liability and obligation of such Guarantor hereunder. (b) Each Guarantor is currently informed of the financial condition of the Borrowers, each other Obligor, and any and all other Persons obligated in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor has read and understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. Each Guarantor is familiar with, and has had an opportunity to review the books and records regarding the financial condition of the Borrowers and is familiar with the value of any and all property intended to be security for the payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; provided that such Guarantor is not relying on such financial condition or the existence or value of any such security as an inducement to enter into this Guaranty Agreement. Each Guarantor has adequate means to obtain, on a continuing basis, information concerning the financial condition of the Borrowers. No Guarantor has been induced to enter into this Guaranty Agreement on the basis of a contemplation, belief, understanding, or agreement that any Person other than such Guarantor will be liable to pay the Guaranteed Obligations. Neither the Agent, nor any other Lender, has made any representation, warranty, or statement to any Guarantor in order to induce such Guarantor to execute this Guaranty Agreement. 4. Covenants.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT - Page 5 (c) The Agent shall have the right to seek recourse against each Guarantor to the fullest extent provided for herein, and no election by the Agent to proceed in one form of action or proceeding, or against any party, or on any obligation, shall constitute a waiver of the Agent's right to proceed in any other form of action or proceeding or against other parties unless the Agent has expressly waived such right in writing. Without limiting the foregoing, no action or proceeding by any Lender under any document or instrument evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations shall serve to diminish the liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement except to the extent that the Lenders finally and unconditionally shall have realized indefeasible payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. (d) Each Guarantor waives, and agrees that its liability hereunder shall not be affected by, any neglect, delay, omission, failure, or refusal of the Agent or any Lender to (i) exercise or properly or diligently exercise any right or remedy with respect to any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations or the collection thereof or any Collateral or other security for or Guaranty of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any portion thereof, (ii) take or prosecute, or properly or diligently take or prosecute, any action for the collection of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations against any of the Borrowers, any other Obligor, such Guarantor, or any other Person in respect of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations, (iii) foreclose or prosecute, or properly or diligently foreclose or prosecute, any action in connection with any agreement, document, or instrument or arrangement evidencing, securing, or otherwise affecting all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or (iv) mitigate damages or take any other action to reduce, collect, or enforce the Guaranteed Obligations. (e) The Agent may at any time, without the consent of or notice to any Guarantor (but otherwise subject to any requirement for consent of any or all of the Lenders as prescribed by the Loan and Security Agreement), without incurring responsibility to any Guarantor and without impairing, releasing, reducing, or affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder: (i) change the manner, place, or terms of payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, or renew, extend, modify, rearrange, refinance, refund, or alter all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) sell, exchange, release, surrender, subordinate, realize upon, or otherwise deal with in any manner and in any order any Collateral and any Lien securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or this Guaranty Agreement or setoff against all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) neglect, delay, omit, fail, or refuse to take or prosecute any action for the collection of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or this Guaranty Agreement or to take or prosecute any action in connection with any of the Loan Documents; (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any of the Borrowers, any other Obligor, or any other Person, or otherwise act or refrain from acting; (v) settle or compromise all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations and subordinate the payment of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations to the payment of any obligations, indebtedness, or liabilities which may be due or become due to the Lenders or others; (vi) apply any deposit balance, fund, payment, collections through process of law or otherwise, or other property of the Borrowers or any other Obligor to the satisfaction and liquidation of indebtedness or obligations of any of the Obligor to the GUARANTY AGREEMENT - Page 6 Lenders, if any, not guaranteed under this Guaranty Agreement; (vii) release all or any one or more parties to any one or more of the Loan Documents or grant other indulgences to the Borrowers or any other Obligor or any other Person in respect thereof; (viii) amend or modify in any manner and at any time (or from time to time) any of the Loan Documents; (ix) partially or fully release or substitute any guarantor, or enforce, exchange, release, or waive any security for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any portion thereof; (x) bring suit against any and all Persons liable or obligated in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, collectively together, jointly and severally, or separately, and apply any amounts obtained by the Agent in such manner as the Agent may elect, subject to the Loan Documents; and (xi) apply any sums paid to the Lenders by any Guarantor, the Borrowers, any other Obligor, or any other Person to the Guaranteed Obligations as provided by the Loan Documents. (f) Should the Agent or any other Lender seek to enforce the obligations hereunder by action in any court or otherwise, each Guarantor waives any requirement, substantive or procedural, that (i) rights or remedies be enforced first against any of the Borrowers, any other Obligor, or any other Person liable for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, including, without limitation, that a judgment first be rendered against any such Person, or that any of the Borrowers or any other such Person should be joined in such cause or (ii) enforcement shall first be made against any Collateral or other property which shall ever have been given to secure all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or this Guaranty Agreement. Such waiver shall be without prejudice to the Agent's right, at its option, to proceed against the Borrowers, any other Obligor, or any other Person, whether by separate action or by joinder. (g) If, in connection with the exercise of any of its rights and remedies, the Agent or any other Lender shall forfeit any of its rights or remedies, including, without limitation, its right to a deficiency judgment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether because of any Applicable Law pertaining to "election of remedies," disposition of collateral, or the like, each Guarantor hereby consents to such action by the Agent or such Lender and waives any claim based upon such action. Any action which results in the denial or impairment of any such right to seek a deficiency judgment against any of the Borrowers, any other Obligor, or any other Person shall not impair the obligation of any Guarantor to pay the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other obligation of any Guarantor contained herein. (h) Each Guarantor agrees that if, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, is prevented by any Applicable Law from exercising its right to accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations, to collect interest thereon, or to enforce or exercise any other right or remedy with respect thereto, or the Agent is prevented from taking any action to enforce any Lien in the Collateral or any other property as security for the Guaranteed Obligations or realize on the Collateral, such Guarantor shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders, upon demand therefor, the amount that would otherwise have been due and payable had such rights and remedies been permitted to be exercised by the Lenders, as the case may be. GUARANTY AGREEMENT - Page 7 (i) Each Guarantor hereby assumes sole responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrowers, each other Obligor, and any other Person liable for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or duty to advise it of information known to any of them regarding such condition or any such circumstance. (j) Each Guarantor consents and agrees that neither the Agent nor any Lender shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of such Guarantor or otherwise in connection with obtaining payment of any or all of the Guaranteed Obligations from any Person or source. (k) Each Guarantor agrees that the Agent may, at any time and from time to time in its discretion and with or without valuable consideration, allow substitution or withdrawal of Collateral or other security and release Collateral or other security without impairing or diminishing the liabilities or obligations of such Guarantor hereunder. (l) Each Guarantor agrees that neither the Agent nor any Lender shall be liable for any failure to use diligence or care in the collection of the Guaranteed Obligations, in the creation or perfection of any lien, security interest, or assignment intended as security, or in preserving the liability of any Person liable or obligated on the Guaranteed Obligations. 7. Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each Guarantor agrees, to pay to the Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, at the Agent's office located in Dallas County, Texas or at such other place as the Agent may specify to such Guarantor in writing, on demand by the Agent and without further notice of dishonor and without notice of any kind to any Obligor, such Guarantor, or any other Person, the full unpaid amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, in immediately available funds, or such lesser amount, if any, as may then be due and payable and demanded by the Agent from time to time. If acceleration of the time for payment of any amount payable by the Borrowers or any other Obligor under or with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed or otherwise delayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Obligor, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by each Guarantor hereunder promptly on demand by the Agent, and such Guarantor expressly and unconditionally agrees to make such payment in full. 8. No Waiver, Remedies. (a) No failure on the part of the Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. In no event shall any waiver of the provisions of this Guaranty Agreement be effective unless the same be in writing and signed by an officer GUARANTY AGREEMENT - Page 8 of the Agent, and then only in the specific instance and for the purpose given. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by any Applicable Law or any of the other Loan Documents. (b) Failure by the Agent or any Lender at any time or times hereafter to require strict performance by the Borrowers, any other Obligor, any Guarantor, or any other Person of any of the requirements contained in any of the Loan Documents now or at any time, from time to time, hereafter executed and delivered by the Borrowers, any other Obligor, any Guarantor, or any such other Person shall not waive, affect, or diminish the right to demand strict performance thereof, and such right shall not be deemed to have been modified or waived by any course of conduct or knowledge of the Agent, any Lender, or any agent, officer, or employee thereof, respectively. (c) No waiver of any Default or Event of Default or any other breach, default, or requirement shall operate as a waiver of any other Default or Event of Default or the same Default or Event of Default on a future occasion, and no action permitted hereunder shall in any way affect or impair any of the rights of the Agent or the Lenders or the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement or under any of the other Loan Documents. Any determination by a court of competent jurisdiction of the amount of any principal and/or interest or other amount constituting any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be conclusive and binding on each Guarantor irrespective of whether such Guarantor was a party to the suit or action in which such determination was made. 9. Notice of Sale. In the event that any Guarantor is entitled to receive any notice under the UCC, as it exists in the state governing any such notice, of the sale or other disposition of any Collateral or other property securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or this Guaranty Agreement, it is agreed that at least ten days notice of the time and place of any public sale, or the time after which any private sale or other disposition may be made of any such Collateral or other property, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice in conformity with such requirements; provided that notice given in any other reasonable manner or at any other reasonable time shall be sufficient. 10. Payment by Guarantor. Whenever any Guarantor pays any sum which is or may become due under this Guaranty Agreement, written notice must be delivered to the Agent contemporaneously with such payment. Such notice shall be effective for purposes of this paragraph when contemporaneously with such payment the Agent receives such notice in the manner otherwise prescribed for notices hereunder. For purposes of this Guaranty Agreement, in the absence of such notice in compliance with the provisions hereof, any sum received by the Agent or any Lender on account of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be conclusively deemed paid by the Borrowers. 11. The Agent. The Agent shall have all of the rights, powers, and benefits, for itself and on behalf of the Lenders, as are prescribed by the Loan Documents. 12. Cumulative Remedies; No Election. If any Guarantor is or becomes liable or obligated for the Guaranteed Obligations, by endorsement or otherwise, other than under this GUARANTY AGREEMENT - Page 9 Guaranty Agreement, such liability or obligation shall not be in any manner impaired or affected hereby, and the rights and remedies of the Agent hereunder shall be cumulative of any and all other rights and remedies that the Agent or any Lender may ever have against such Guarantor. The exercise by the Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other agreement, document, or instrument, or at law or in equity, shall not preclude the concurrent or subsequent exercise of any other right or remedy. This Guaranty Agreement may be enforced from time to time as often as occasion for enforcement may arise as may be determined by the Agent, and it is agreed and understood that it shall not be necessary for the Agent, in order to enforce payment by any Guarantor, first to exercise any rights or remedies against any of the Borrowers, any other Obligor, the Collateral, or any other Person under the Loan Documents or any Applicable Law. 13. Binding Effect. This Guaranty Agreement, and each Guarantor's performance hereunder, is for the benefit of the Agent (for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders according to their respective interests as provided in the Loan and Security Agreement), and its successors and assigns, and in the event of an assignment by the Agent or any Lender, or their respective successors or assigns, of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any part thereof, the rights and benefits hereunder, to the extent applicable to the indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations so assigned, shall be deemed transferred with such indebtedness, liabilities, and obligations without necessity of further express action. This Guaranty Agreement is binding upon each Guarantor, and its successors and assigns. 14. Contribution and Indemnity. To the extent that any Guarantor shall repay any of the Guaranteed Obligations (any such payment hereinafter being called an "Accommodation Payment") then such Guarantor making such Accommodation Payment shall be entitled to contribution and indemnification from, and be reimbursed by, each other Guarantor in an amount, for each such other Guarantor, equal to a fraction of such Accommodation Payment, the numerator of which fraction is such other Guarantor's Allocable Amount (as defined below) and the denominator of which is the sum of the Allocable Amounts of each Guarantor. As of any date of determination, the "Allocable Amount" of each Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount of liability for Accommodation Payments which could be asserted against such Guarantor hereunder without (a) rendering such Guarantor "insolvent" within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act ("UFTA") or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act ("UFCA"), (b) leaving such Guarantor with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 458 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Guarantor unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA. All rights and claims of contribution, indemnification, and reimbursement under this paragraph shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations. The provisions of this paragraph shall, to the extent expressly inconsistent with any provision of any Loan Document, supersede such inconsistent provision. 15. Limitation of Liability in Respect of Unitive Inc., and Unitive Electronics, Inc. Notwithstanding anything in this Guaranty Agreement to the contrary, the liability of each of Unitive Inc., and Unitive Electronics, Inc., respectively, under this Guaranty Agreement shall be GUARANTY AGREEMENT - Page 10 limited to a maximum aggregate amount equal to the largest amount which could be asserted against such Guarantor hereunder without (a) rendering such Guarantor "insolvent" within the meaning of Section 101 (31) of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 2 of the uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act ("UFTA") or Section 2 of the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act ("UFCA"), (b) leaving such Guarantor with unreasonably small capital or assets, within the meaning of Section 458 of the Bankruptcy Code, Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA, or (c) leaving such Guarantor unable to pay its debts as they become due within the meaning of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or Section 4 of the UFTA, or Section 5 of the UFCA or otherwise rendering its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under any Applicable Law, in each case after giving effect to all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, that are relevant under such laws, and after giving effect to the value, as assets (as determined under applicable provisions of such laws) of any rights of such Guarantor to subrogation or contribution from the Borrowers, any other Obligor or other Person pursuant to any Applicable Law or any agreement providing for an equitable allocation among Guarantors, the Borrowers and any other Obligor or other Person of their respective obligations thereunder. 16. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that the Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined below) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations as herein provided. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Subordinated Indebtedness shall not be payable, and no payment of principal, interest, or other amounts on account thereof, and no property or guarantee of any nature to secure or pay the Subordinated Indebtedness shall be made or given, directly or indirectly by or on behalf of any Debtor (hereafter defined) or received, accepted, retained, or applied by any Guarantor unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, no payments of principal or interest may be made or given, directly or indirectly, by or on behalf of any Debtor or received, accepted, retained, or applied by any Guarantor unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash. If any sums shall be paid to any Guarantor by any Debtor or any other Person on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness when such payment is not permitted hereunder, such sums shall be held in trust by such Guarantor for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Agent without affecting the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty Agreement and may be applied by the Agent against the Guaranteed Obligations in accordance with the Loan and Security Agreement. Upon the request of the Agent, each Guarantor shall execute, deliver, and endorse to the Agent such documentation as the Agent may request to perfect, preserve, and enforce its rights hereunder.

GUARANTY AGREEMENT - Page 11 Each Guarantor agrees that any and all Liens (including any judgment liens), upon any Debtor's assets securing payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any and all Liens upon any Debtor's assets securing payment of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, regardless of whether such Liens in favor of such Guarantor, the Agent, or any Lender presently exist or are hereafter created or attached (provided that the foregoing shall not be interpreted or deemed to allow the existence of any such Liens to the extent otherwise prohibited by the Loan Documents).
