OPERATIVE PART

1 The Guarantors:-

1.1 guarantee punctual payment to the Company of all amounts which the Applicant does now or may at any time in the future owe to the Company;

1.2 guarantee punctual and correct compliance with all obligations (including payment obligations) which the Applicant owes now or may in the future owe to the Company;

1.3 indemnify the Company against any loss it may suffer if the Applicant does not meet any of its obligations; 

2 This Guarantee and Indemnity creates a principal obligation from the Guarantor to the Company and it is in addition to any security which the Company holds from the Applicant. This Guarantee and Indemnity may be enforced without the Company having to take steps against the Applicant or its security.

3 This Guarantee and Indemnity is not affected and is still enforceable;

3.1 if any amount owing to the Company by the Applicant is not recoverable from the Company for any reason at all;

3.2 if the Company does not comply with any law or any agreement with the Applicant;

3.3 if the Company grants any time, release or other concession to the Applicant or the Guarantors or any one or more of the Guarantors;

3.4 if any or more of the Guarantors or any other party does not execute this Guarantee and Indemnity;

3.5 in the event of death, incapacity, administration, bankruptcy or insolvency of the Applicant or of any of the Guarantors;

3.6 if a payment by the Applicant or by any Guarantor to the Company is set aside in bankruptcy, litigation or official management of the Applicant or of any Guarantor;

3.7 if a Guarantor ceases to be director of or be involved with the Company or the status or structure of the Applicant changes at all;

3.8 if any other thing occurs which could otherwise limit the effect of the Guarantee and Indemnity.

4 This Guarantee and Indemnity is a continuing guarantee and indemnity and is not wholly or partially discharged until all credit arrangements between the Company and the Applicant are ended, all amounts owing to the Company by the Applicant are paid, and all obligations of the Applicant to the Company are complied with in full.

5 Where there are two or more Guarantors their obligations are joint and several and none of them shall be discharged from their obligations under this Guarantee and Indemnity if:

5.1 This Guarantee and Indemnity is not enforceable against one of them or the liability of one of them ceases;

5.2 any Guarantor dies; or

5.3 if one of them is unable to perform his or her other obligations under this Guarantee and Indemnity.

6 The Guarantor agree to waive all rights inconsistent with the terms of this Guarantee and Indemnity.

7 Each Guarantor hereby charges with payment of the moneys and the compliance with all obligations secured by this Guarantee and Indemnity all beneficial interests (freehold and leasehold) in real property held now or in the future by a Guarantor. Each Guarantor agrees that if demand is made upon him or her or it by the Company, that Guarantor will immediately execute a mortgage or other instrument of security, or consent to a caveat, as required by the Company and against the event that he, she or it fails to do so within a reasonable time from being so requested, that Guarantor hereby irrevocably and by way of security appoints any credit manager or solicitor engaged by the Company to be his or her other true and lawful attorney to execute and register such instrument.

8 Each Guarantor agrees that the Company may seek from a credit reporting agency, a credit report containing personal information about them to assess whether to accept them as guarantors for credit applied for or provided to the Company. The Guarantors agree that if the Company approves the Applicant's application for credit, this Deed remains in force until the credit facility covered by the Applicant's application ceases.

9 If the Applicant is a trustee of a trust, the Guarantors warrant that the Applicant has full authority as trustee to enter into agreements for the supply to it of goods or services, of both, on credit. 

10 If a notice or a demand is given to one of the Guarantors it will mean it has been given to all of them.
