Nature’s Own Wellness Center, a Colorado limited liability company, whose address is 4900 Jackson Street, Denver, Colorado 80216, and 4900 Jackson, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company, whose address is 4900 Jackson Street, Denver, Colorado 80216 (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Borrower") applied for, and received, a loan from Lender in the principal amount of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000.00) (hereinafter referred to as the "Loan") evidenced by Borrower's Note (hereinafter referred to as the "Note"), dated June 20, 2014, as amended January 1 and May 1, 2015, secured by a two Security Agreements (hereinafter referred to as the "Security Agreement"), dated June 20, 2014 therewith, granting a security interest in Borrower’s licenses, receivables, general intangibles, inventories including all products cultivated, manufactured, prepared or sold, growing plants, any other crops, farm products, furnishings, fixtures, equipment and machinery including lighting, improvements made to the leased premises, and proceeds and products of any of the Borrower’s business.

 

1.02 Inducement for Guaranty. Lender was unwilling to make the Loan unless Justin Pius Anderson guaranteed payment and performance of the Note and Security Agreement. Justin Pius Anderson has now requested that he be released from his obligations under his Guaranty and that Nature’s Own Wellness Center be released from its obligations as a maker of the Note. Lender has agreed to such releases in consideration of Substitute Guarantor simultaneously executing this Substitute Guaranty replacing Mr. Anderson as Guarantor. (From this point forward, the term “Borrower” in this Substituted Guaranty shall mean only 4900 Jackson, LLC).

 

Substitute Guarantor hereby expressly guarantees payment of the Note, as amended, and performance by Borrower of each and every term, covenant, condition and agreement contained therein, and in any amendments thereto, and in the Security Agreements and under any and all other agreements that have been executed or that will be executed by the Borrower to or for the benefit of the Lender in connection with the Loan on the part of Borrower to be kept, observed or performed, including the Consulting Agreement dated effective July 1, 2014, as amended. The Note, Security Agreements and such other agreements are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Loan Documents." Substituted Guarantor desires to give such guaranty in order to induce Lender to make and maintain the Loan.

 

2.00 GUARANTY, WAIVER AND CONSENTS

 

2.01 Guaranty. Substituted Guarantor unconditionally and absolutely guarantees the due and punctual payment of the principal of the Note, as amended, the interest thereon and any other money due or which may become due under the Loan Documents, and the due and punctual performance and observance by Borrower of any other terms, covenants and conditions of the Loan Documents and of the Consulting Agreement dated effective July 1, 2014, as amended, on the part of the Borrower to be kept, observed or performed, whether according to the present terms thereof, at any earlier or accelerated date or dates as provided therein, or pursuant to any extension of time or to any change or changes in the terms, covenants and conditions thereof (other than an increase in the principal of, or interest on, the Note), now or at any time hereafter made or granted.

 

 
 

 

 

2.02 Waiver and Consents. Substituted Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, protest, notice of dishonor, demand for payment, extension of time for payment, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, nonpayment at maturity and indulgences and notice of every kind, and consents to any and all forbearances and extensions of the time for payment of the Note or performance under the Loan Documents, and to any and all changes in the terms, covenants and conditions of the Loan Documents hereafter made or granted, and to any and all substitutions, exchanges or releases of all or any part of the collateral therefor. It is the intention hereof that Substituted Guarantor shall remain liable hereunder until the full amount of the principal of the Note, with interest, and any other sums due or to become due under the Loan Documents, shall have been fully paid, and the terms, covenants and conditions of the Loan Documents shall have been fully kept, observed and performed by Borrower notwithstanding any act, omission or thing which might otherwise operate as a legal or equitable discharge of Guarantor.

3.01 No Subrogation. Substituted Guarantor agrees that it shall have no right of subrogation whatsoever with respect to the Loan Documents, or to original moneys due and unpaid thereon, or any collateral securing the same, unless and until Lender shall have received payment in full of all sums due under the Loan Documents.

 

3.02 Enforcement. This Substituted Guaranty may be enforced by Lender without first resorting to or exhausting any other security or collateral and without first having recourse to the Note or any of the remedies provided by the Loan Documents through foreclosure proceedings or otherwise.

If such foreclosure or other remedy is availed of, only the net proceeds therefrom, after deduction of all charges and expenses of every kind and nature whatsoever, shall be applied in reduction of the amount due on the Note and/or the other Loan Documents. Lender shall not be required to institute or prosecute proceedings to recover any deficiency as a condition of payment hereunder or enforcement hereof. At any sale of the security or collateral for the indebtedness or any part thereof, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, Lender may at its discretion purchase all or any part of such collateral so sold or offered for sale for its own account and may apply the amount bid therefor against the balance due it pursuant to the terms of the Note and/or the other Loan Documents.
