EXHIBIT D
Guaranty
In order to induce Winter Park Chateau, a Colorado limited liability company ("Landlord") to enter into that certain Lease Agreement dated ________________, 20_____ (the "Lease") with The MaryJane Group, Inc. ("Tenant"), Joel C. Schneider ("Guarantor") hereby makes the following guaranty, indemnification and agreements with and in favor of Landlord:
(a) Guarantor hereby covenants and agrees with Landlord: (i) to make the due and punctual payment of all rent, monies and charges payable under the Lease during the term thereof and all renewals or extensions thereof; (ii) to effect prompt and complete performance of all and each of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions contained in the Lease on the part of Tenant to be kept, observed and performed during the term and any renewals or extensions thereof; and (iii) to indemnify and save Landlord harmless from any loss, costs or damages arising out of any failure to pay the aforesaid rent, moneys and charges or the failure to perform any of the terms, covenants, conditions and provisions of the Lease.
(b) In the event of a default under the Lease, Guarantor waives any right to require Landlord to: (i) proceed against Tenant or pursue any rights or remedies with respect to the Lease; (ii) proceed against or exhaust any security that Landlord holds from Tenant; (iii) pursue any other remedy whatsoever in Landlord's power; or (iv) proceed against any co-guarantors, if any. Landlord shall have the right to enforce this guaranty regardless of the acceptance of additional security from Tenant and regardless of the release or discharge of Tenant by Landlord or by others, or by operation of law.
(c) Guarantor hereby expressly waives any right of setoff or compensation against amounts due under this Guaranty and waives all notice of non-performance, non-payment, non-observance or default on the part of Tenant of the terms, covenants, or conditions and provisions of the Lease.
(d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not be deemed to have been waived, released, discharged, impaired, or affected by reason of any waiver or failure to enforce any of the obligations of the Tenant under the Lease, or assignment of the Lease by Landlord or Tenant, or the subletting of the demised premises by the Tenant, or by the expiration of the Lease term, or the release or discharge of Tenant in any receivership, bankruptcy, winding-up or other creditors' proceedings, or the rejection, disaffirmance or disclaimer of the Lease by any party in any action or proceeding, or any extension, modification, amendment or alteration of the Lease whatsoever, including but not limited to relocation of Tenant to substitute premises, and shall continue with respect to the periods prior thereto and thereafter, for and with respect to the term originally contemplated and expressed in the Lease. The liability of the Guarantor shall not be affected by any repossession of the demised premises by Landlord, provided, however, the net payments received by Landlord after deducting all costs and expenses of repossession and/or reletting the same, shall be credited from time to time by Landlord to the account of Guarantor and Guarantor shall pay any balance owing to Landlord from time to time immediately upon ascertainment.
(e) This Guaranty shall be one of payment and performance and not simply of collection. Notwithstanding the use of the word "indemnity" or "guaranty" each guarantor or indemnitor shall be jointly and severally liable hereunder.
(f) Guarantor shall, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, be bound by this Guaranty in the same manner as though Guarantor were the Tenant named in the Lease.
(g) All of the terms, agreements and conditions of this Guaranty shall extend to and be binding upon Guarantor, his heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by Landlord, its successors and assigns, and the holder of any mortgage to which the Lease may be subject and subordinate from time to time.
(h) Landlord may, without notice, assign or transfer this Guaranty, in whole or in part, and no such assignment or transfer shall operate to extinguish, diminish, waive, release, discharge or otherwise affect Guarantor's liability hereunder.
(i) Guarantor hereby consents to the jurisdiction of any competent federal or state court within the City and County of Denver and/or within the county where the demised premises which are the subject of the Lease are located.
(j) Guarantor agrees to pay to Landlord all reasonable attorneys' fees and costs or other expenses incurred by Landlord in any legal proceedings for collection, attempted collection, enforcement, attempted enforcement, negotiation or otherwise arising under the Lease or this Guaranty.
GUARANTOR:
