the meanings given to them in the Purchase Agreement. The words
“hereof,” “herein,” “hereto”
and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used
in this Guarantee shall refer to this Guarantee as a whole and not

same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time
to time.
“
Obligations ” means, in addition to all other costs
and expenses of collection incurred by Purchasers in enforcing any
of such Obligations and/or this Guarantee, all of the liabilities
and obligations (primary, secondary, direct, contingent, sole,
joint or several) due or to become due, or that are now or may be
hereafter contracted or acquired, or owing to, of any Debtor to the
Secured Parties, including, without limitation, all obligations
under this Agreement, the Grid Notes, this Guarantee and any other
instruments, agreements or other documents executed and/or
delivered in connection herewith or therewith, in each case,
whether now or hereafter existing, voluntary or involuntary, direct
or indirect, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated,
whether or not jointly owed with others, and whether or not from
time to time decreased or extinguished and later increased, created
or incurred, and all or any portion of such obligations or
liabilities that are paid, to the extent all or any part of such

the generality of the foregoing, the term “Obligations”
shall include, without limitation: (i) Principal Amount of the Grid
Notes (as defined in the Grid Notes) and the loans extended

delivered in connection herewith or therewith; and (iii) all
amounts (including but not limited to post-petition interest) in
respect of the foregoing that would be payable but for the fact
that the obligations to pay such amounts are unenforceable or not
allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or
similar proceeding involving any Debtor.

“Transaction
Documents” shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the
Purchase Agreement.
(i)
The Guarantors hereby, jointly and
severally, unconditionally and irrevocably, guarantee to each
Purchaser and each of their respective successors, indorsees,
transferees and assigns, the prompt and complete payment and
performance by the Company when due (whether at the stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the
Obligations.
(ii)
Anything herein or in any other
Transaction Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum
liability of each Guarantor hereunder and under the other
Transaction Documents shall in no event exceed the amount which can
be guaranteed by such Guarantor under applicable federal and state
laws, including laws relating to the insolvency of debtors,
fraudulent conveyance or transfer or laws affecting the rights of
creditors generally (after giving effect to the right of
contribution established in Section 2(b)).
2
(iii)
Each Guarantor agrees that the
Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the amount
of the liability of such Guarantor hereunder without impairing the
guarantee contained in this Section 2 or affecting the rights and
remedies of the Purchasers hereunder.
(iv)
The guarantee contained in this
Section 2 shall remain in full force and effect until all the
Obligations and the obligations of each Guarantor under the
guarantee contained in this Section 2 shall have been satisfied by
payment in full.
(v)
No payment made by the Company, any
of the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person or
received or collected by the Purchasers from the Company, any of
the Guarantors, any other guarantor or any other Person by virtue
of any action or proceeding or any set-off or appropriation or
application at any time or from time to time in reduction of or in
payment of the Obligations shall be deemed to modify, reduce,
release or otherwise affect the liability of any Guarantor
hereunder which shall, notwithstanding any such payment (other than

any payment received or collected from such Guarantor in respect of
the Obligations), remain liable for the Obligations up to the
maximum liability of such Guarantor hereunder until the Obligations
are paid in full.
(vi)
Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any defaulted
non-monetary Obligations the specific performance of which by the
Guarantors is not reasonably possible (e.g. the issuance of the
Company's Common Stock), the Guarantors shall only be liable for
making the Purchasers whole on a monetary basis for the Company's
failure to perform such Obligations in accordance with the
Transaction Documents.
(b)
Right of Contribution
. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that
to the extent that a Guarantor shall have paid more than its
proportionate share of any payment made hereunder, such Guarantor

share of such payment. Each Guarantor's right of contribution shall
be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2(c). The
provisions of this Section 2(b) shall in no respect limit the
obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor to any Purchaser, and
each Guarantor shall remain liable to each Purchaser for the full
amount guaranteed by such Guarantor hereunder.

Company or any other Guarantor or any collateral security or
guarantee or right of offset held by any Purchaser for the payment
of the Obligations, nor shall any Guarantor seek or be entitled to
seek any contribution or reimbursement from the Company or any
other Guarantor in respect of payments made by such Guarantor
hereunder, until all amounts owing to the Purchasers by the Company
