PERSONAL THIS PERSONAL GUARANTY CREATES SPECIFIC LEGAL OBLIGATIONS.
GUARANTY In consideration of Lessor entering into the lease agreement identified above ("Lease"). The undersigned Personal
Guarantor (hereinafter "You") unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Lessor, its successors and assigns, the
prompt payment and performance of all obligations of the Lessee identified in this Lease. You agree that this is
a guaranty of payment and not of collection, and that Lessor can proceed directly against you without first
proceeding against the Lessee or against the equipment covered by the Lease. You waive all notices and defenses,
based upon suretyship or impairment of collateral, including but not limited to release of collateral or failure
to perfect a security interest. You agree that Lessor can renew, extend or otherwise modify the terms of the Lease
and you will be bound by such changes. If the Lessee defaults under the Lease, you will immediately perform all
obligations of the Lessee under the Lease, including, but not limited to, paying all amounts due under the Lease.
You will pay to Lessor all expenses INCLUDING ATTORNEYS' FEES incurred by Lessor in enforcing Lessor's rights
against you or the Lessee. This is a continuing guaranty that will not be discharged or affected by your death and
will bind your heirs and personal representatives. You waive any rights to seek repayment from the Lessee in the
event you must pay Lessor. If more than one personal guarantor has signed this Personal Guaranty, each of you
agree that your liability is joint and several. You authorize Lessor or any of Lessor's agents to obtain credit
bureau reports regarding your personal credit, to make other credit inquiries that Lessor determines are necessary.
THIS PERSONAL GUARANTY IS GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF OHIO. YOU CONSENT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY COURT
LOCATED WITHIN OHIO. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.
