Other Defaults.    Failure of Borrower or any Guarantor to comply with or to perform when due any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of the Related Documents, or failure of Borrower to comply with or to perform any other term, obligation, covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and Borrower.


 
Default in Favor of Third Parties.    Should Borrower or any Guarantor default under any loan, extension of credit, security agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of any other creditor or person that may materially affect any of Borrower’s property or Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s ability to repay the Loans or perform their respective obligations under this Agreement or any of the Related Documents.
 
False Statements.    Any warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to Lender by or on behalf of Borrower or any Guarantor under this Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material respect at the time made or furnished, or becomes false or misleading at any time thereafter.

EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT.    If any Event of Default shall occur, except where otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any other agreement immediately will terminate (including any obligation to make Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender’s option, all Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type described in the “Insolvency” subsection above, such acceleration shall be automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or otherwise.

Lender and Borrower agree that in the event of an action for judicial foreclosure pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726, or any similar provision in any other state, the commencement of such an action will not constitute a waiver of the right to arbitrate and the court shall refer to arbitration as much of such action, including counterclaims, as lawfully may be referred to arbitration. judgment upon any award rendered by any arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

Caption Headings.    Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this Agreement.
 
Consent to Loan Participation.    Borrower agrees and consents to Lender’s sale or transfer, whether now or later, of one or more participation interests in the Loans to one or more purchasers, whether related or unrelated to Lender. Lender may provide, without any limitation whatsoever, to any one or more purchasers, or potential purchasers, any information or knowledge Lender may have about Borrower or about any other matter relating to the Loan, and Borrower hereby waives any rights to privacy it may have with respect to such matters. Borrower additionally waives any and all notices of sale of participation interests, as well as all notices of any repurchase of such participation interests. Borrower also agrees that the purchasers of any such participation interests will be considered as the absolute owners of such interests in the Loans and will have all the rights granted under the participation agreement or agreements governing the sale of such participation interests. Borrower further waives all rights of offset or counterclaim that it may have now or later against Lender or against any purchaser of such a participation interest and unconditionally agrees that either Lender or such purchaser may enforce Borrower’s obligation under the Loans irrespective of the failure or insolvency of any holder of any interest in the Loans. Borrower further agrees that the purchaser of any such participation interests may enforce its interests irrespective of any personal claims or defenses that Borrower may have against Lender.
 
Costs and Expenses.    Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all of Lender’s expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, enforcement, modification and collection of this Agreement or in connection with the Loans made pursuant to this Agreement.

Any party may change its address for notices under this Agreement by giving formal written notice to the other parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party’s address. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if there is more than one Borrower, notice to any Borrower will constitute notice to all Borrowers. For notice purposes, Borrower will keep Lender informed at all times of Borrower’s current address(es).
 
Severability.    If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or circumstance, such finding shall not render that provision invalid or unenforceable as to any other persons or circumstances. If feasible, any such offending provision shall be deemed to be modified to be within the limits of enforceability or validity; however, if the offending provision cannot be so modified, it shall be stricken and all other provisions of this Agreement in all other respects shall remain valid and enforceable.
 
Subsidiaries and Affiliates of Borrower.    To the extent the context of any provisions of this Agreement makes it appropriate, including without limitation any representation, warranty or covenant, the word “Borrower” as used herein shall include all subsidiaries and affiliates of Borrower. Notwithstanding the foregoing however, under no circumstances shall this Agreement be construed to require Lender to make any Loan or other financial accommodation to any subsidiary or affiliate of Borrower.

Time Is of the Essence.    Time is of the essence in the performance of this Agreement.
 
Waiver.    Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between Lender and any Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender’s rights or of any obligations of Borrower or of any Guarantor as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent in subsequent instances where such consent is required, and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.

AMOUNT OF GUARANTY.    The amount of this Guaranty is Unlimited.
 
CONTINUING UNLIMITED GUARANTY.    For good and valuable consideration, LEE KASPER (“Guarantor”) absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay to U.S. Bank National Association (“Lender”) or its order, on demand, in legal tender of the United States of America, the Indebtedness (as that term is defined below) of NUTECH DIGITAL, INC. (“Borrower”) to Lender on the terms and conditions set forth in this Guaranty. Under this Guaranty, the liability of Guarantor is unlimited and the obligations of Guarantor are continuing.
 
DEFINITIONS.    The following words shall have the following meanings when used in this Guaranty;
 
Borrower.    The word “Borrower” means NUTECH DIGITAL, INC.
 
Guarantor.    The word “Guarantor” means LEE KASPER.
 
Guaranty.    The word “Guaranty” means this Guaranty made by Guarantor for the benefit of Lender dated March 20, 2001.
 
Indebtedness.    The word “Indebtedness” is used in its most comprehensive sense and means and includes any and all of Borrower’s liabilities, obligations, debts, and indebtedness to Lender, now existing or hereinafter incurred or created, including, without limitation, all loans, advances, interest, costs, debts, overdraft indebtedness, credit card indebtedness, lease obligations, other obligations, and liabilities of Borrower, or any of them, and any present or future judgments against Borrower, or any of them; and whether any such Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness may be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra vires, or otherwise.
 
Lender.    The word “Lender” means U.S. Bank National Association, its successors and assigns.
 
Related Documents.    The words “Related Documents” mean and include without limitation all promissory notes, credit agreements, loan agreements, environmental agreements, guaranties, security agreements, mortgages, deeds of trust, and ail other instruments, agreements and documents, whether now or hereafter existing, executed in connection with the Indebtedness.


 
NATURE OF GUARANTY.    Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty shall be open and continuous for so long as this Guaranty remains in force. Guarantor intends to guarantee at all times the performance and prompt payment when due, whether at maturity or earlier by reason of acceleration or otherwise, of all Indebtedness. Accordingly, no payments made upon the Indebtedness will discharge or diminish the continuing liability of Guarantor in connection with any remaining portions of the Indebtedness or any of the Indebtedness which subsequently arises or is thereafter incurred or contracted. Any married person who signs this Guaranty hereby expressly agrees that recourse may be had against both his or her separate property and community property.
 
DURATION OF GUARANTY.    This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all Indebtedness incurred or contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been fully and finally paid and satisfied and all other obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor’s written notice of revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at the address of Lender listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing. Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor’s written revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term “new Indebtedness’ does not include Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes absolute, liquidated, determined or due. This Guaranty will continue to bind Guarantor for all indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior to receipt of Guarantor’s written notice of revocation, including any extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness granted after Guarantor’s revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and, specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall bind the estate of Guarantor as to Indebtedness created both before and after the death or incapacity of Guarantor, regardless of Lender’s actual notice of Guarantor’s death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor’s executor or administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the same manner in which Guarantor might have terminated it and with the same effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of the Indebtedness shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty. A revocation received by Lender from any one or more Guarantors shall not affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. The obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be in addition to any obligations of Guarantor, or any of them, under any other guaranties of the Indebtedness of Borrower or any other person heretofore or hereafter given to Lender unless such other guaranties are modified or revoked in writing; and this Guaranty shall not, unless herein provided, affect, invalidate, or supersede any such other guaranty. It is anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Indebtedness covered by this Guaranty, and it is specifically acknowledged and agreed by Guarantor that reductions in the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00), prior to written revocation of this Guaranty by Guarantor shall not constitute a termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and Guarantor’s heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness guaranteed may from time to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
 
GUARANTOR’S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER.    Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening Guarantor’s liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (a) prior to revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional secured or unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or otherwise to extend additional credit to Borrower; (b) to alter, compromise, renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for payment or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness, including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the Indebtedness; extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan term; (c) to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fall or decide not to perfect, and release any such security, with or without the substitution of new collateral; (d) to release, substitute, agree not to sue, or deal with anyone or more of Borrower’s sureties, endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or in any manner Lender may choose; (e) to determine how, when and what application of payments and credits shall be made on the Indebtedness; (f) to apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including without limitation, any nonjudicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling security agreement or deed of trust, as Lender in its discretion may determine; (g) to sell, transfer, assign, or grant participations in all or any part of the Indebtedness; and (h) to assign or transfer this Guaranty in whole or in part.


 
GUARANTOR’S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.    Guarantor represents and warrants to Lender that (a) no representations or agreements of any kind have been made to Guarantor which could limit or qualify in any way the terms of this Guaranty; (b) this Guaranty is executed at Borrower’s request and not at the request of Lender; (c) Guarantor has lull power, right and authority to enter into this Guaranty; (d) the provisions of this Guaranty do not conflict with or result in a default under any agreement or other instrument binding upon Guarantor and do not result in a violation of any law, regulation, court decree or order applicable to Guarantor; (e) Guarantor has not and will not, without the prior written consent of Lender, sell, lease, assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer, or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor’s assets, or any interest therein; (f) upon Lender’s request, Guarantor will provide to Lender financial and credit information in form acceptable to Lender, and all such financial information which currently has been, and all future financial information which will be provided to Lender is and will be true and correct in all material respects and fairly present the financial condition of Guarantor as of the dates the financial information is provided; (g) no material adverse change has occurred in Guarantor’s financial condition since the date of the most recent financial statements provided to Lender and no event has occurred which may materially adversely affect Guarantor’s financial condition; (h) no litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action (including those for unpaid taxes) against Guarantor is pending or threatened; (i) Lender has made no representation to Guarantor as to the creditworthiness of Borrower; and (j) Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from Borrower on a continuing basis information regarding Borrower’s financial condition. Guarantor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any facts, events, or circumstances, which might in any way affect Guarantor’s risks under this Guaranty, and Guarantor further agrees that, absent a request for information, Lender shall have no obligation to disclose to Guarantor any information or documents acquired by Lender in the course of its relationship with Borrower.
 
GUARANTOR’S WAIVERS.    Except as prohibited by applicable raw, Guarantor waives any right to require Lender to (a) make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of any kind, including notice of change of any terms of repayment of the Indebtedness, default by Borrower or any other guarantor or surety, any action or nonaction taken by Borrower, Lender, or any other guarantor or surety of Borrower, or the creation of new or additional Indebtedness; (b) proceed against any person, including Borrower, before proceeding against Guarantor; (c) proceed against any collateral for the Indebtedness, including Borrower’s collateral, before proceeding against Guarantor; (d) apply any payments or proceeds received against the Indebtedness in any order; (e) give notice of the terms, time, and place of any sale of the collateral pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code or any other law governing such sale; (f) disclose any information about the Indebtedness, the Borrower, the collateral, or any other guarantor or surety, or about any action or nonaction of Lender; or (g) pursue any remedy or course of action in Lender’s power whatsoever.
 
Guarantor also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (h) any disability or other defense of Borrower, any other guarantor or surety or any other person; (i) the cessation from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full, of the Indebtedness; (j) the application of proceeds of the indebtedness by Borrower for purposes other than the purposes understood and intended by Guarantor and Lender; (k) any act of omission or commission by Lender which directly or indirectly results in or contributes to the discharge of Borrower or any other guarantor or surety, or the Indebtedness, or the loss or release of any collateral by operation of law or otherwise; (I) any statute of limitations in any action under this Guaranty or on the Indebtedness; or (m) any modification or change in terms of the Indebtedness, whatsoever, including without limitation, the renewal, extension, acceleration, or other change in the time payment of the Indebtedness is due and any change in the interest rate, and including any such modification or change in terms after revocation of this Guaranty on Indebtedness incurred prior to such revocation.
 
Guarantor waives any rights and any defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against Borrower by operation of Section 580d of the California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.
 
Guarantor waives all rights and defenses that Guarantor may have because Borrower’s obligation is secured by real property. This means among other things: (1) Lender may collect from Guarantor without first foreclosing on any real or personal property collateral pledged by Borrower. (2) If Lender forecloses on any real property collateral pledged by Borrower: (A) The amount of Borrower’s obligation may be reduced only by the price for which the collateral is sold at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is worth more than the sale price. (B) Lender may collect from Guarantor even if Lender, by foreclosing on the real property collateral, has destroyed any right Guarantor may have to collect from Borrower. This is an unconditional waiver of any rights and defenses Guarantor may have because Borrower’s obligation is secured by real property. These rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights and defenses based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of the Code of Civil Procedure.


 
Guarantor understands and agrees that the foregoing waivers are waivers of substantive rights and defenses to which Guarantor might otherwise be entitled under state and federal law. The rights and defenses waived include, without limitation, those provided by California laws of suretyship and guaranty, anti-deficiency laws, and the Uniform Commercial Code. Guarantor acknowledges that Guarantor has provided these waivers of rights and defenses with the intention that they be fully relied upon by Lender. Until all Indebtedness is paid in full, Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy Lender may have against Borrower or any other guarantor, surety, or other person, and further, Guarantor waives any right to participate in any collateral for the Indebtedness now or hereafter held by Lender.
 
If now or hereafter (a) Borrower shall be or become insolvent, and (b) the Indebtedness shall not at all times until paid be fully secured by collateral pledged by Borrower, Guarantor hereby forever waives and relinquishes in favor of Lender and Borrower, and their respective successors, any claim or right to payment Guarantor may now have or hereafter have or acquire against Borrower, by subrogation or otherwise, so that at no time shall Guarantor be or become a “creditor” of Borrower within the meaning of 11 U.S.C. section 547(b), or any successor provision of the Federal bankruptcy laws.
 
GUARANTOR’S UNDERSTANDING WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS.    Guarantor warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth above is made with Guarantor’s full knowledge of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. If any such waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such waiver shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
 
LENDER’S RIGHT OF SETOFF.    In addition to all liens upon and rights of setoff against the moneys, securities or other property of Guarantor given to Lender by law, Lender shall have, with respect to Guarantor’s obligations to Lender under this Guaranty and to the extent permitted by law, a contractual security interest in and a right of setoff against, and Guarantor hereby assigns, conveys, delivers, pledges, and transfers to Lender all of Guarantor’s right, title and interest in and to, all deposits, moneys, securities and other property of Guarantor now or hereafter in the possession of or on deposit with Lender, whether held in a general or special account or deposit, whether held jointly with someone else, or whether held for safekeeping or otherwise, excluding however all IRA, Keogh, and trust accounts. Every such security interest and right of setoff may be exercised without demand upon or notice to Guarantor. No security interest or right of setoff shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or conduct on the part of Lender or by any neglect to exercise such right of setoff or to enforce such security interest or by any delay in so doing. Every right of setoff and security interest shall continue in full force and effect until such right of setoff or security interest is specifically waived or released by an instrument in writing executed by Lender.
 
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER’S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR.    Guarantor agrees that the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter created, shall be prior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire against Borrower, whether or not Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any account whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against Borrower. In the event of Insolvency and consequent liquidation of the assets of Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and shall be first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender. Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire against Borrower or against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower; provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose of assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall be delivered to Lender. Guarantor agrees, and Lender hereby is authorized, in the name of Guarantor, from time to time to execute and file financing statements and continuation statements and to execute such other documents and to take such other actions as Lender deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its rights under this Guaranty.
 
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.    The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of this Guaranty:
 
Integration, Amendment.    Guarantor warrants, represents and agrees that this Guaranty, together with any exhibits or schedules incorporated herein, fully incorporates the agreements and understandings of Guarantor with Lender with respect to the subject matter hereof and all prior negotiations, drafts, and other extrinsic communications between Guarantor and Lender shall have no evidentiary effect whatsoever. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity to be advised by Guarantor’s attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor’s intentions and parol evidence is not required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses, claims, damages, and costs (including Lender’s attorneys’ fees) suffered or incurred by Lender as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the warranties, representations and agreements of this paragraph. No alteration or amendment to this Guaranty shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.


 
Applicable Law.    This Guaranty has been delivered to Lender and accepted by Lender in the Stale of California. If there is a lawsuit, Guarantor agrees upon Lender’s request to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of Sacramento County, State of California. Subject to the provisions on arbitration, this Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California.
 
Arbitration.    Lender and Guarantor agree that all disputes, claims and controversies between them, whether individual, joint, or class in nature, arising from this Guaranty or otherwise, including without limitation contract and tort disputes, shall be arbitrated pursuant to the Rules of the American Arbitration Association, upon request of either party.

This includes, without limitation, obtaining injunctive relief or a temporary restraining order; invoking a power of sale under any deed of trust or mortgage; obtaining a writ of attachment or imposition of a receiver; or exercising any rights relating to personal property, including taking or disposing of such property with or without judicial process pursuant to Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. Any disputes, claims, or controversies concerning the lawfulness or reasonableness of any act, or exercise of any right, concerning any Collateral, including any claim to rescind, reform, or otherwise modify any agreement relating to the Collateral, shall also be arbitrated, provided however that no arbitrator shall have the right or the power to enjoin or restrain any act of any party. Lender and Guarantor agree that in the event of an action for judicial foreclosure pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726, or any similar provision in any other state, the commencement of such an action will not constitute a waiver of the right to arbitrate and the court shall refer to arbitration as much of such action, including counterclaims, as lawfully may be referred to arbitration. Judgment upon any award rendered by any arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Nothing in this Guaranty shall preclude any party from seeking equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction. The statute of limitations, estoppel, waiver, laches, and similar doctrines which would otherwise be applicable in an action brought by a party shall be applicable in any arbitration proceeding, and the commencement of an arbitration proceeding shall be deemed the commencement of an action for these purposes. The Federal Arbitration Act shall apply to the construction, interpretation, and enforcement of this arbitration provision.

Notices.    All notices required to be given by either party to the other under this Guaranty shall be in writing, may be sent by telefacsimile (unless otherwise required by law), and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be effective when actually delivered or when deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or when deposited in the United States mail, first class postage prepaid, addressed to the party to whom the notice is to be given at the address shown above or to such other addresses as either party may designate to the other in writing. All revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective only upon delivery to Lender as provided above in the section titled “DURATION OF GUARANTY.” If there is more than one Guarantor notice to any Guarantor will constitute notice to all Guarantors. For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep Lender informed at all times of Guarantor’s current address.


 
Interpretation.    In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be deemed have been used in the plural where the context and construction so require; and where there is more than one Borrower named in this Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the words “Borrower” and “Guarantor” respectively shall mean all and any one or more of them. The words “Guarantor,” “Borrower,” and “Lender” include the heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees of each of them. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions of this Guaranty. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Guaranty to be invalid or unenforceable as to any person or circumstance, such finding shall not render that provision invalid or unenforceable as to any other persons or circumstances, and all provisions of this Guaranty in all other respects shall remain valid and enforceable. If any one or more Borrower or Guarantor are corporations or partnerships, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, or agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of such powers shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
 
Waiver.    Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a waiver of Lender’s right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Guarantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender’s rights or of any of Guarantor’s obligations as of any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
 
EACH UNDERSIGNED GUARANTOR ACKNOWLEDGES HAVING READ ALL THE PROVISIONS OF THIS GUARANTY AND AGREES TO ITS TERMS. IN ADDITION, EACH GUARANTOR UNDERSTANDS THAT THIS GUARANTY IS EFFECTIVE UPON GUARANTOR’S EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS GUARANTY TO LENDER AND THAT THE GUARANTY WILL CONTINUE UNTIL TERMINATED IN THE MANNER SET FORTH IN THE SECTION TITLED “DURATION OF GUARANTY.” NO FORMAL ACCEPTANCE BY LENDER IS NECESSARY TO MAKE THIS GUARANTY EFFECTIVE.

In the event the first four boxes are checked, Debtor acknowledges and agrees that, in applying the law of any jurisdiction that at any time enacts all or


 
substantially all of the uniform provisions of Revised Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (1999 Official Text), the foregoing collateral description covers all assets of Debtor. Bank may at any time and from time to time file financing and continuation statements and amendments thereto reflecting the same. Unless otherwise defined, the terms set forth in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Uniform Commercial Code as adopted in the Loan Documents and as amended from time to time. The defined terms hereunder shall be interpreted in a manner most favorable to Bank.
 
1.3    “Obligations” means all Debtor’s debts (except for consumer credit if Debtor is a natural person), liabilities, obligations, covenants, warranties, and duties to Bank (plus its affiliates including any credit card debt, but specifically excluding any type of consumer credit), whether now or hereafter existing or incurred, whether liquidated or unliquidated, whether absolute or contingent, whether arising out of the Loan Documents or otherwise, and all other debts and obligations due Bank under any lease, agricultural, real estate or other financing transaction and regardless of whether such financing is related in time or type to the financing provided at the time of grant of this security interest, and regardless of whether such Obligations arise out of existing or future credit granted by Bank to any Debtor, to any Debtor and others, to others guaranteed, endorsed or otherwise secured by any Debtor or to any debtor-in-possession or other successor-in-interest of any Debtor, and including principal, interest, fees, expenses and charges relating to any of the foregoing.
 
ARTICLE II.    WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS
 
In addition to all other warranties and covenants of Debtor under the Loan Documents which are expressly incorporated herein as, part of this Agreement and while any part of the credit granted Debtor under the Loan Documents is available or any Obligations of Debtor to Bank are unpaid or outstanding, Debtor continuously warrants and agrees as follows:

a borrowing base or otherwise, (i) Collateral constituting inventory, equipment and fixtures is in good condition, not obsolete and is either currently saleable or usable; and (ii) Collateral constituting accounts, contract rights, notes, chattel paper and other third-party obligations to pay is fully enforceable in accordance with its terms and not subject to return, dispute, setoff, credit allowance or adjustment, except for discounts for prompt payment. Unless Debtor provides Bank with written notice to the contrary, Debtor has no notice or knowledge of anything that would impair the ability of any third-party obligor to pay any debt to Debtor when due.

2.5    Collateral Inspections; Modifications and Changes in Collateral.    At reasonable times, Bank may examine the Collateral and Debtor’s records pertaining to it, wherever located, and make copies of such records at Debtor’s expense; and Debtor shall assist Bank in so doing.

Debtor shall promptly notify Bank in writing of any material change in the condition of the Collateral and of any change in location of the Collateral.
 
2.6    Collateral Records, Reports and Statements.    Debtor shall keep accurate and complete records respecting the Collateral in such form as Bank may approve. At such times as Bank may require, Debtor shall furnish to Bank any records/information Bank might require, including, without limitation, a statement certified by Debtor and in such form and containing such information as may be prescribed by Bank showing the current status and value of the Collateral.

Debtor shall promptly mark chattel paper to indicate conspicuously Bank’s security interest therein, shall not deliver any chattel paper or negotiable instruments to any other entity and, upon request, shall deliver any original chattel paper, instruments, drafts, notes, acceptances and other documents which constitute Collateral to Bank.
 
2.8    United States Government Contracts.    If any accounts or contract rights arose out of contracts with the United States or any of its departments, agencies or instrumentalities, Debtor shall promptly notify Bank and execute any writings required by Bank so that any money due or to become due under such contracts shall be assigned to Bank under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act.
 
2.9    Environmental Matters.    Except as disclosed in a written schedule attached to this Agreement (if no schedule is attached, there are no exceptions), there exists no uncorrected violation by Debtor of any federal, state or local laws (including statutes, regulations, ordinances or other governmental restrictions and requirements) relating to the discharge of air pollutants, water pollutants or process waste water or otherwise relating to the environment or Hazardous Substances as hereinafter defined, whether such laws currently exist or are enacted in the future (collectively “Environmental Laws’). The term “Hazardous Substances” shall mean any hazardous or toxic wastes, chemicals or other substances, the generation, possession or existence of which is prohibited or governed by any Environmental Laws. Debtor is not subject to any judgment, decree,


 
order or citation, or a party to (or threatened with) any litigation or administrative proceeding, which asserts that Debtor (i) has violated any Environmental Laws; (ii) is required to clean up, remove or take remedial or other action with respect to any Hazardous Substances (collectively “Remedial Action”); or (iii) is required to pay all or a portion of the cost of any Remedial Action, as a potentially responsible party. There are not now, nor to Debtor’s knowledge after reasonable investigation have there ever been, any Hazardous Substances (or tanks or other facilities for the storage of Hazardous Substances) stored, deposited, recycled or disposed of on, under or at any real estate owned or occupied by Debtor during the periods that Debtor owned or occupied such real estate, which if present on the real estate or in soils or ground water, could require Remedial Action. To Debtor’s knowledge, there are no proposed or pending changes in Environmental Laws which would adversely affect Debtor or its business, and there are no conditions existing currently or likely to exist while the Loan Documents are in effect which would subject Debtor to Remedial Action or other liability. Debtor currently complies with and will continue to timely comply with all applicable Environmental Laws; and will provide Bank, immediately upon receipt, copies of any correspondence, notice, complaint, order or other document from any source asserting or alleging any circumstance or condition which requires or may require a financial contribution by Debtor or Remedial Action or other response by or on the part of Debtor under Environmental Laws, or which seeks damages or civil, criminal or punitive penalties from Debtor for an alleged violation of Environmental Laws.
 
2.10    Insurance.    Debtor will maintain insurance to such extent, covering such risks and with such insurers as is usual and customary for businesses operating similar properties, and as is satisfactory to Bank, including insurance for fire and other risks insured against by extended or comprehensive coverage, public liability insurance and workers’ compensation insurance; and will designate Bank as loss payee with a “Lender’s Loss Payable” endorsement on any casualty policies and take such other action as Bank may reasonably request to ensure that Bank will receive (subject to no other interests) the insurance proceeds of the Collateral. Debtor hereby assigns all insurance proceeds to and irrevocably directs, while any Obligations remain unpaid, any insurer to pay to Bank the proceeds of all such insurance and any premium refund; and authorizes Bank to endorse Debtor’s name to effect the same, to make, adjust or settle, in Debtor’s name, any claim on any insurance policy relating to the Collateral; and, at the option of Bank, to apply such proceeds and refunds to the Obligations or to restoration of the Collateral, returning any excess to Debtor. In the event of any failure of the Debtor to obtain or maintain any insurance required hereunder, the Bank shall have the authority, but not the obligation, to obtain any such insurance coverage, and the Debtor shall immediately reimburse the Bank for the cost thereof, together with interest on such amount at the highest rate of interest then accruing on any of the Obligations.
 
ARTICLE III.    COLLECTIONS
 
3.1    Deposit with Bank.    At any time Bank may require that all proceeds of Collateral received by Debtor shall be held by Debtor upon an express trust for Bank, shall not be commingled with any other funds or property of Debtor and shall be turned over to Bank in precisely the form received (but endorsed by Debtor, if necessary for collection) not


later than the business day following the day of their receipt. All proceeds of Collateral received by Bank directly or from Debtor shall be applied against the Obligations in such order and at such times as Bank shall determine.

The rights and remedies specified herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies which Bank would otherwise have. With respect to such rights and remedies:
 
(a)  Assembling Collateral; Storage; Use of Debtor’s Name/Other Property.    Bank may require Debtor to assemble the Collateral and to make it available to Bank at any convenient place designated by Bank. Debtor recognizes that Bank will not have an adequate remedy in law if this obligation is breached and accordingly, Debtor’s obligation to assemble the Collateral shall be specifically enforceable. Bank shall have the right to take immediate possession of said Collateral and Debtor irrevocably authorizes Bank to enter any of the premises wherever said Collateral shall be located, and to store, repair, maintain, assemble, manufacture, advertise and sell, lease or dispose of (by public sale or otherwise) the same on said premises until sold, all without charge or rent to Bank.

Notice of any record shall be deemed delivered when the record has been (a) deposited in the United States Mail, postage pre-paid, (b) received by overnight delivery service, (c) received by telex, (d) received by telecopy, (e) received through the internet, or (f) when personally delivered.


 
(c)  Possession of Collateral/Commercial Reasonableness.    Bank shall not, at any time, be obligated to either take or retain possession or control of the Collateral. With respect to Collateral in the possession or control of Bank, Debtor and Bank agree that as a standard for determining commercial reasonableness, Bank need not liquidate, collect, sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Collateral if Bank believes, in good faith, that disposition of the Collateral would not be commercially reasonable, would-subject Bank to third-party claims or liability, that other potential purchasers could be attracted or that a better price could be obtained if Bank held the Collateral for up to 2 years. Bank may sell Collateral without giving any warranties and may specifically disclaim any warranties of title or the like. Furthermore, Bank may sell the Collateral on credit (and reduce the Obligations only when payment is received from the buyer), at wholesale and/or with or without an agent or broker; and Bank need not complete, process, repair, clean-up or otherwise prepare the Collateral prior to disposition. If the purchaser fails to pay for the Collateral, Bank my resell the Collateral and Debtor shall be credited with the cash proceeds of the sale. Bank may comply with any applicable state or federal law requirements in connection with a disposition of the Collateral and compliance will not be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale of the Collateral.
 
(d)  Waiver by Debtor.    Bank has no obligation and Debtor waives any obligation to attempt to satisfy the Obligations by collecting the obligations from any third parties and Bank may release, modify or waive any collateral provided by any third party to secure any of the Obligations, all without affecting Bank’s rights against Debtor. Debtor further waives any obligation on the part of Bank to marshal any assets in favor of Debtor or in payment of the Obligations. Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement or any other agreement between Debtor and Bank, Debtor does not waive any statutory rights except to the extent that the waiver thereof is permitted by law.
 
(e)  Waiver by Bank.    Bank may permit Debtor to attempt to remedy any default without waiving its rights and remedies hereunder, and Bank may waive any default without waiving any other subsequent or prior default by Debtor. Furthermore, delay on the part of Bank in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or at law shall not operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or privilege preclude other exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. No waiver or suspension shall be deemed to have occurred unless Bank has expressly agreed in writing specifying. such waiver or suspension.
