GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP AGREEMENT
THIS GUARANTY AND SURETYSHIP AGREEMENT (this "Guaranty") is made
and entered into as of this 20th day of March, 2009 by Richard E. Phelan (the
"Guarantor"), with an address at 735 S. Hanover St., Carlisle, PA 17013,
in consideration of the extension of credit by Cornerstone Federal Credit Union, (the
"Credit Union"), with an address at 5 Eastgate Drive, Carlisle, Pennsylvania, 17013, to
Emporium Design Concept, Inc.. (the "Borrower"), and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.
1. Guaranty of Obligations. The Guarantor hereby guarantees, and becomes
surety for, the prompt payment and performance of all loans, advances, debts, liabilities,
obligations, covenants and duties owing by the Borrower to the Credit Union or to any
other direct or indirect subsidiary of Cornerstone Federal Credit Union, of any kind or
nature, present or future (including any interest accruing thereon after maturity, or after
the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or the commencement of any insolvency,
reorganization or like proceeding relating to the Borrower whether or not a claim for
post-filing or post-petition interest is allowed in such proceeding) whether or not
evidenced by any note, guaranty or other instrument, whether arising under any
agreement, instrument or document, whether or not for the payment of money, whether
arising by reason of an extension of credit, opening of a letter of credit, loan, equipment
lease or guarantee, under any interest or currency swap, future, option or other interest
rate protection or similar agreement, or in any other manner, whether arising out of
overdrafts on deposit or other accounts or electronic funds transfers (whether through
automated clearing houses or otherwise) or out of the Credit Union's non-receipt of or
inability to collect funds or otherwise not being made whole in connection with
depository transfer check or other similar arrangements, whether direct or indirect
(including those acquired by assignment or participation), absolute or contingent, .joint or
several, due or to become due, now existing or hereafter arising, and any amendments,
extensions, renewals or increases and all costs and expenses of the Credit Union incurred
in the documentation, negotiation, modification, enforcement, collection or otherwise in
connection with any of the foregoing, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses
(hereinafter referred to collectively as the "Obligations"). If the Borrower defaults under
any such Obligations, the Guarantor will pay the amount due to the Credit Union.
2. Nature of Guaranty Waivers. This is a guaranty of payment and not
of collection and the Credit Union shall not be required, as a condition of the Guarantor's
liability, to make any demand upon or to pursue any of its rights against the Borrower, or
to pursue any rights which may be available to it with respect to any other person who
may be liable for the payment of the Obligations.
This is an absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing guaranty and will remain in
full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, and
the Credit Union has terminated this Guaranty. This Guaranty will remain in full force
EXHIBIT
3
and effect even if there is no principal balance outstanding under the Obligations at a
particular time or from time to time. This Guaranty will not be affected by any surrender,
exchange, acceptance, compromise or release by the Credit Union of any other party, or
any other guaranty or any security held by it for any of the Obligations, by any failure of
the Credit Union to take any steps to perfect or maintain its lien or security interest in or
to preserve its rights to any security or other collateral for any of the Obligations or any
guaranty, or by any irregularity , unenforceability or invalidity of any of the Obligations
or any part thereof or any security or other guaranty thereof. The Guarantor's obligations
hereunder shall not be affected, modified or impaired by any counterclaim, set-off,
deduction or defense based upon any claim the Guarantor may have against the Borrower
or the Credit Union, except payment or performance of the Obligations.
Notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of extensions of credit to the Borrower
from time to time, notice of default, diligence, presentment, notice of dishonor, protest,
demand for payment, and any defense based upon the Bank's failure to comply with the
notice requirements of the applicable version of Uniform Commercial Code .§ 9-504 are
hereby waived. The Guarantor waives all defenses based on suretyship or impairment of
collateral.
The Credit Union at any time and from time to time, without notice to or the consent of
the Guarantor, and without impairing or releasing, discharging or modifying the
Guarantor's liabilities hereunder, may (s) change the manner, place, time or terms of
payment or performance of or interest rates on, or other terms relating to, any of the
Obligations; (b) renew, substitute, modify, amend or alter, or grant consents or waivers
relating to any of the Obligations, any other guaranties, or any security for any
Obligations or guaranties; (c) apply any and all payments by whomever paid or however
realized including any proceeds of any collateral, to any Obligations of the Borrower in
such order, manner and amount s the Credit Union may determine in its sole discretion;
(d) settle, compromise or deal with any other person, including the Borrower or the
Guarantor, with respect to any Obligations in such manner as the Credit Union deems
appropriate in its sole discretion; (e) substitute, exchange or release any security or
guaranty; or (f) take such actions and exercise such remedies hereunder as provided
herein.
3. Repayments or Recovery from the Credit Union. If any demand is made at
any time upon the Credit Union for the repayment or recovery of any amount received by
it in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and if the Credit Union repays all or
any part of such amount by reason of any judgement, decree or order of any court or
administrative body or by reason of any settlement or compromise of any such demand,
the Guarantor will be and remain liable hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered
to the same extent as if such amount had never been received originally by the Credit
Union. The provisions of this section will be and remain effective notwithstanding any
contrary action which. may have been taken by the Guarantor in reliance upon such
payment, and any such contrary action so taken will be without prejudice to the Credit
Union's rights hereunder and will be deemed to have been conditioned upon such
payment having become final and irrevocable.
4. Financial Statements. Unless compliance is waived in writing by the Credit
Union until all of the Obligations have been paid in full, the Guarantor will promptly
submit to the Credit Union such information relating to the Guarantor's affairs (including
but not limited to annual financial statements and tax returns for the Guarantor) or any
security for the Guaranty as the Credit Union may reasonable request.
5. Enforceability of Obligations. No modification, limitation or discharge of
the Obligations arising out of or by virtue of any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar
proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or state law will affect, modify, limit or
discharge the Guarantor's liability in any manner whatsoever and this Guaranty will
remain and continue in full force and effect and will be enforceable against the Guarantor
to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if any such proceeding had not
been instituted. The Guarantor waives all rights and benefits which might accrue to it by
reason of any such proceeding and will be liable to the full extent hereunder, irrespective
of any modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of the Borrower that may
result from any such proceeding.
6. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall be an
"Event of Default". (i) any Event of Default (as defined in any of the Obligations); (ii)
any default under any of the Obligations that does not have a defined set of "Events of
Default" and the lapse of any notice or cure period provided in such Obligations with
respect to such default; (iii) demand by the Credit Union under any of the Obligations
that have a demand feature; (iv) the Guarantor's failure to perform any of its obligations
hereunder; (v) the falsity, inaccuracy or material breach by the Guarantor of any written
warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to the Credit Union by or on
behalf of the Guarantor; or (vi) the termination or attempted termination of this Guaranty
upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, (a) the Guarantor shall pay to the Credit
Union the amount of the Obligations; or (b) on demand of the Credit Union, the
Guarantor shall immediately deposit with the Credit Union, in U.S. dollars, all amounts
due or to become due under the Obligations and the Credit Union may at any time use
such funds to repay the Obligations; or (c) the Credit Union in its discretion may exercise
with respect to any collateral any one or more of the rights and remedies provided a
secured party under the applicable version of the Uniform Commercial Code; or (d) the
Credit Union in its discretion may exercise from time to time any other rights and
remedies available to it at law, in equity or otherwise.
7. Right of Setoff. In addition to all liens upon and rights of setoff against the
Guarantor's money, securities or other property given to the Credit Union by law, the
Credit Union shall have with respect tot the Guarantor's obligations to the Credit Union
under this Guaranty and to the extent permitted by law, a contractual possessory security
interest in and a contractual right of setoff against, and the Guarantor hereby assigns,
conveys, delivers, pledges and transfers to the Credit Union all of the Guarantor's right,
title and interest in and to, all of the Guarantor's deposits, moneys, securities and other
property now or hereafter in the possession of or on deposit with, or in transit to the
Credit Union or any other direct or indirect subsidiary of Cornerstone Federal Credit
Union, 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 the Guarantor. Every such right of setoff
shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default hereunder without any action of the Credit Union, although the Credit Union may
enter such setoff on its books and records at a later time.
8. Collateral. This Guaranty is secured by the property described in any
collateral security documents which the Guarantor executes and delivers to the Credit
Union and by such other collateral as previously may have been or may in the future be
granted to the Credit Union to secure any obligations of the Guarantor to the Bank.
9. Costs. To the extent that the Credit Union incurs any costs or expenses in
protecting or enforcing its rights under the Obligations or this Guaranty, including
reasonable attorneys; fees and the costs and expenses of litigation, such costs and
expenses will be due on demand, will be included in the Obligations and will bear interest
from the incurring or payment thereof at the Default Rate (as defined in any of the
Obligations).
10. Postponement of Subrozation. Until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in
full, the Guarantor postpones and subordinates in favor of the Credit Union any and all
rights which the Guarantor may have to (a) assert any claim against the Borrower based
on subrogation rights with respect to payments made hereunder, and (b) any realization
on any property of the Borrower, including participation in any marshalling of the
Borrower's assets.
11. Power to Confess Judgment
The Guarantor hereby empowers any attorney of any court of record,
after the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, to appear for the
Guarantor and, with or without complaint filed, confess judgment, or a series of
judgments, against the Guarantor in favor of the Credit Union for the amount of the
Obligations and an attorney's commission of the greater of 10% of such principal
and interest or $1,000 added as a reasonable attorney's fee, and for doing so this
Guaranty or a copy verified by affidavit shall be a sufficient warrant. The
Guarantor hereby forever waives and releases all errors in said proceedings and all
rights of appeal and all relief from any and all appraisement, stay or exemption laws
of any state now in force or hereafter enacted.
No single exercise of the foregoing power to confess judgment, or a series of
judgments, shall be deemed to exhaust the power, whether or not any such exercise
shall be held by any court to be invalid, voidable, or void, but the power shall
continue undiminished and it may be exercised from time to time as often as the
Credit Union shall elect until such time as the Credit Union shall have received
payment in full of the Obligations and costs. Notwithstanding the attorney's
commission provided for in the preceding paragraph (which is included in the
warrant for purposes of establishing a sum certain), the amount of attorney's fees
that the Credit Union may recover from the Guarantor shall not exceed the actual
attorney's fees incurred by the Credit Union.
12. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other
communications required or permitted hereunder must be in writing and will be effective
upon receipt. Such notices and other communications may be hand-delivered, sent by
facsimile transmission with confirmation of delivery and a copy sent by first-class mail,
or sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service, to the addresses for the Credit
Union and the Guarantor set forth above or to such other address as one may give to the
other in writing for such purpose.
13. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission on the Credit Union's part to
exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power to be
considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Bank's action or inaction
impair any such right or power. The Credit Union's rights and remedies hereunder are
cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Credit Union may
have under other agreements, at law or in equity. The Credit Union may proceed in any
order against the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other obligor of, or collateral securing,
the Obligations.
14. Illegality. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality
and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.
15. Changes in Writing. No modification, amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom will
be effective unless made in writing signed by the Credit Union, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which
given. No notice to or demand on the Guarantor in any case will entitle the Guarantor to
any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.
16. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty (including the documents and
instruments referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Guarantor and
the Bank with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that this Guaranty

the benefit of the Guarantor and the Credit Union and their respective heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Guarantor may not

liability, to make any demand upon or to pursue any of its rights against the Borrower, c
to pursue any rights which may be available to it with respect to any other person who
may be liable for the payment of the Obligations.
This is an absolute, unconditional, irrevocable and continuing guaranty and will remain
full force and effect until all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, and
the Credit Union has terminated this Guaranty. This Guaranty will remain in full force
EEXXHIB
and effect even if there is no principal balance outstanding under the Obligations at a
particular time or from time to time. This Guaranty will not be affected by any surrender,
exchange, acceptance, compromise or release by the Credit Union of any other party, or
any other guaranty or any security held by it for any of the Obligations, by any failure of
the Credit Union to take any steps to perfect or maintain its lien or security interest in or
to preserve its rights to any security or other collateral for any of the Obligations or any
guaranty, or by any irregularity, unenforceability or invalidity of any of the Obligations
or any part thereof or any security or other guaranty thereof. The Guarantor's obligations
hereunder shall not be affected, modified or impaired by any counterclaim, set-off,
deduction or defense based upon any claim the Guarantor may have against the Borrower
or the Credit Union, except payment or performance of the Obligations.
Notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of extensions of credit to the Borrower
from time to time, notice of default, diligence, presentment, notice of dishonor, protest,
demand for payment, and any defense based upon the Bank's failure to comply with the
notice requirements of the applicable version of Uniform Commercial Code. § 9-504 are
hereby waived. The Guarantor waives all defenses based on suretyship or impairment of
collateral.
The Credit Union at any time and from time to time, without notice to or the consent of
the Guarantor, and without impairing or releasing, discharging or modifying the
Guarantor's liabilities hereunder, may (s) change the manner, place, time or terms of
payment or performance of or interest rates on, or other terms relating to, any of the
Obligations; (b) renew, substitute, modify, amend or alter, or grant consents or waivers
relating to any of the Obligations, any other guaranties, or any security for any
Obligations or guaranties; (c) apply any and all payments by whomever paid or however
realized including any proceeds of any collateral, to any Obligations of the Borrower in
such order, manner and amount s the Credit Union may determine in its sole discretion;
(d) settle, compromise or deal with any, other person, including the Borrower or the
Guarantor, with respect to any Obligations in such manner as the Credit Union deems
appropriate in its sole discretion; (e) substitute, exchange or release any security or
guaranty; or (f) take such actions and exercise such remedies hereunder as provided
herein.
3. Repayments or Recovery from the Credit Union. If any demand is made at
any time upon the Credit Union for the repayment or recovery of any amount received by
it in payment or on account of any of the Obligations and if the Credit Union repays all or
any part of'such amount by reason of any judgement, decree or order of any court or
administrative body or by reason of any settlement or compromise of any such demand,
the Guarantor will be and remain liable hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered
to the same extent as if such amount had never been received originally by the Credit
Union. The provisions of this section will be and remain effective notwithstanding any
contrary action which may have been taken by the Guarantor in reliance upon such
payment, and any such contrary action so taken will be without prejudice to the Credit
Union's rights hereunder and will be deemed to have been conditioned upon such
payment having become final and irrevocable.
pp.y
R

4. Financial Statements. Unless compliance is waived in writing by the Credit
Union until all of the Obligations have been paid in full, the Guarantor will promptly
submit to the Credit Union such information relating to the Guarantor's affairs (including
but not limited to annual financial statements and tax returns for the Guarantor) or any
security for the Guaranty as the Credit Union may reasonable request.
5. Enforceability of Obligations. No modification, limitation or discharge of
the Obligations arising out of or by virtue of any bankruptcy, reorganization or similar
proceeding for relief of debtors under federal or state law will affect, modify, limit or
discharge the Guarantor's liability in any manner whatsoever and this Guaranty will
remain and continue in full force and effect and will be enforceable against the Guarantor
to the same extent and with the same force and effect as if any such proceeding had not
been instituted. The Guarantor waives all rights and benefits which might accrue to it by
reason of any such proceeding and will be liable to the full extent hereunder, irrespective
of any modification, limitation or discharge of the liability of the Borrower that may
result from any such proceeding.
fi. Events of Default. The occurrence of any of the following shall be an
"Event of Default". (i) any Event of Default (as defined in any of the Obligations); (ii)
any default under any of the Obligations that does not have a defined set of "Events of
Default" and the lapse of any notice or cure period provided in such Obligations with
respect to such default; (iii) demand by the Credit Union under any of the Obligations
that have a demand feature; (iv) the Guarantor's failure to perform any of its obligations
hereunder; (v) the falsity, inaccuracy or material breach by the Guarantor of any written
warranty, representation or statement made or furnished to the Credit Union by or on
behalf of the Guarantor; or (vi) the termination or attempted termination of this Guaranty
upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, (a) the Guarantor shall pay to the Credit
Union the amount of the Obligations; or (b) on demand of the Credit Union, the
Guarantor shall immediately deposit with the Credit Union, in U.S. dollars, all amounts
due or to become due under the Obligations and the Credit Union may at any time use
such funds to repay the Obligations; or (c) the Credit Union in its discretion may exercise
with respect to any collateral any one or more of the rights and remedies provided a
secured party under the applicable version of the Uniform Commercial Code; or (d) the
Credit Union in its discretion may exercise from time to time any other rights and
remedies available to it at law, in equity or otherwise.
7. Right of Setoff. In addition to all liens upon and rights of setoff against the
Guarantor's money, securities or other property given to the Credit Union by law, the
Credit Union shall have with respect tot the Guarantor's obligations to the Credit Union
under this Guaranty and to the extent permitted by law, a contractual possessory security
interest in and a contractual right of setoff against, and. the Guarantor hereby assigns,
conveys., delivers, pledges and transfers to the Credit Union all of the Guarantor's right,
title and interest in and to, all of the Guarantor's deposits, moneys, securities and other
property now or hereafter in the possession of or on deposit with, or in transit to the
Credit Union or any other direct or indirect subsidiary of Cornerstone Federal Credit
Union, 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 the Guarantor. Every such right of setoff
shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default hereunder without any action of the Credit Union, although the Credit Union may
enter such setoff on its books and records at a later time.
8. Collateral. This Guaranty is secured by the property described in any
collateral security documents which the Guarantor executes and delivers to the Credit
Union and by such other collateral as previously may have been or may in the future be
granted to the Credit Union to secure any obligations of the Guarantor to the Bank.
9. Costs. To the extent that the Credit Union incurs any costs or expenses in
protecting or enforcing its rights under the Obligations or this Guaranty, including
reasonable attorneys; fees and the costs and expenses of litigation, such costs and
expenses will be due on demand, will be included in the Obligations and will bear interest
from the incurring or payment thereof at the Default Rate (as defined in any of the
Obligations).
10. Postponement of Subrogation. Until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid in
full, the Guarantor postpones and subordinates in favor of the Credit Union any and all
rights which the Guarantor may have to (a) assert any, claim against the Borrower based
on subrogation rights with respect to payments made hereunder, and (b) any realization
on any property of the Borrower, including participation in any marshalling of the
Borrower's assets.
11. Power to Confess JudEment
The Guarantor hereby empowers any attorney of any court of record,
after the occurrence of any Event of Default hereunder, to appear for the
Guarantor and, with or without complaint filed, confess judgment, or a series of
judgments, against the Guarantor in favor of the Credit Union for the amount of the
Obligations and an attorney's commission of the greater of 10% of such principal
and interest or $1,000 added as a reasonable attorney's fee, and for doing so this
Guaranty or a copy verified by affidavit shall be a sufficient warrant. The
Guarantor hereby forever waives and releases all errors in said proceedings and all
rights of appeal and all relief from any and all appraisement, stay or exemption laws
of any state now in force or hereafter enacted.
No single exercise of the foregoing power to confess judgment, or a series of
judgments, shall be deemed to exhaust the power, whether or not any such exercise
shall be held by any court to be invalid, voidable, or void, but the power shall
continue undiminished and it may be exercised from time to time as often as the
Credit Union shall elect until such time as the Credit Union shall have received
payment in full of the Obligations and costs. Notwithstanding the attorney's
commission provided for in the preceding paragraph (which is included in the
warrant for purposes of establishing a sum certain), the amount of attorney's fees
/ that the Credit Union may recover from the Guarantor shall not exceed the actual
attorney's fees incurred by the Credit Union.
12. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, consents, approvals and other
communications required or permitted hereunder must be in writing and will be effective
upon receipt. Such notices and other communications may be hand-delivered, sent by
facsimile transmission with confirmation of delivery and a copy sent by first-class mail,
or sent by nationally recognized overnight courier service, to the addresses for the Credit
Union and the Guarantor set forth above or to such other address as one may give to the
other in writing for such purpose.
13. Preservation of Rights. No delay or omission on the Credit Union's part to
exercise any right or power arising hereunder will impair any such right or power to be
considered a waiver of any such right or power, nor will the Bank's action or inaction
impair any such right or power. The Credit Union's rights and remedies hereunder are
cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies which the Credit Union may
have under other agreements, at law or in equity. The Credit Union may proceed in any
order against the Borrower, the Guarantor or any other obligor of, or collateral securing,
the Obligations.
14. Illegality. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this
Guaranty should be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality
and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.
15. Changes in Writing. No modification, amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Guaranty nor consent to any departure by the Guarantor therefrom will
be effective unless made in writing signed by the Credit Union, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which
given. No notice to or demand on the Guarantor in any case will entitle the Guarantor to
any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstance.
16. Entire Agreement. This Guaranty (including the documents and
instruments referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes all other
prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the Guarantor and
the Bank with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, however, that this Guaranty

the benefit of the Guarantor and the Credit Union and their respective heirs, executors,
administrators, successors and assigns; provided, however, that the Guarantor may not
assign this Guaranty in whole or in part without the Credit Union's prior written consent
and the Credit Union at any time may assign this Guaranty in whole or in part.

otherwise agree in writing, the singular includes the plural and the plural the singular;
references to statutes are to be construed as including all statutory provisions
consolidating, amending or replacing the statute referred to; the word "or" shall be
deemed to include "and/or", the words "including" "includes" and "include" shall be
deemed to be followed by the words "without limitation"; and references to sections or
exhibits are to those of this Guaranty unless otherwise indicated Section headings in this
Guaranty are included for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of
this Guaranty for any other purpose. If this Guaranty is executed by more than one party
as Guarantor, the Obligations of such persons or entities will be joint and several.
19. Indemnity. The Guarantor agrees to indemnify the Credit Union, its
directors, officers and employees and each legal entity, if any, who controls the Credit
Union (the "Indemnified Parties";) and to hold each Indemnified party harmless from
and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including all
fees and charges of internal or external counsel with whom any Indemnified Party may
consult and all expenses of litigation or preparation therefor) which any Indemnified
Party may incur or which may be asserted against any Indemnified Party as a result of the
execution of or performance under this Guaranty, provided, however, that the foregoing
indemnity agreement shall not apply to claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses

consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court in the county or judicial

other county, state or other foreign or domestic jurisdiction. The Guarantor
acknowledges and agrees that the venue provided above is the most convenient forum for
both the Credit Union and the Guarantor. The Guarantor waives any objection to venue

Guaranty.
