of all assumed business names under which Borrower does business: See
Addendum.
Authorization. Borrower's execution, delivery, and performance of this
Agreement and all the Related Documents have been duly authorized by all
necessary action by Borrower and do not conflict with, result in a
violation of, or constitute a default under (1) any provision of Borrower's

binding upon Borrower or (2) any law, governmental regulation, court
decree, or order applicable to Borrower or to Borrower's properties.
Financial Information. Each of Borrower's financial statements supplied to
Lender truly and completely disclosed Borrower's financial condition as of
the date of the statement, and there has been no material adverse change in
Borrower's financial condition subsequent to the date of the most recent
financial statement supplied to Lender. Borrower has no material contingent

Legal Effect. This Agreement constitutes, and any instrument or agreement

properties. All of Borrower's properties are titled in Borrower's legal
name, and Borrower has not used, or filed a financing statement under, any

writing or as permitted by law, Borrower represents and warrants that: (1)
During the period of Borrower's ownership of Borrower's Collateral, there
has been no use, generation, manufacture, storage, treatment, disposal,
release or threatened release of any Hazardous Substance by any person on,
under, about or from any of the Collateral. (2) Borrower has no knowledge
of, or reason to believe that there has been (a) any breach or violation of
any Environmental Laws; (b) any use, generation, manufacture, storage,
treatment, disposal, release or threatened release of any Hazardous
Substance on, under, about or from the Collateral by any prior owners or
occupants of any of the Collateral; or (c) any actual or threatened
litigation or claims of any kind by any person relating to such matters.
(3) Neither Borrower nor any tenant, contractor, agent or other authorized

compliance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations,
and ordinances, including without limitation all Environmental Laws.
Borrower authorizes Lender and its agents to enter upon the Collateral to
make such inspections and tests as Lender may deem appropriate to determine
compliance of the Collateral with this section of the Agreement. Any
inspections or tests made by Lender shall be at Borrower's expense and for
Lender's purposes only and shall not be construed to create any

other person. The representations and warranties contained herein are based
on Borrower's due diligence in investigating the Collateral for hazardous
waste and Hazardous Substances. Borrower hereby (1) releases and waives any
future claims against Lender for indemnity or contribution in the event

Agreement and shall not be affected by Lender's acquisition of any interest
in any of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise.

proceeding or similar action (including those for unpaid taxes) against
Borrower is pending or threatened, and no other event has occurred which
may materially adversely affect Borrower's financial condition or
properties, other than litigation, claims, or other events, if any, that
have been disclosed to and acknowledged by Lender in writing.

except those presently being or to be contested by Borrower in good faith
in the ordinary course of business and for which adequate reserves have
been provided.
Lien Priority. Unless otherwise previously disclosed to Lender in writing,
Borrower has not entered into or granted any Security Agreements, or
permitted the filing or attachment of any Security Interests on or
affecting any of the Collateral directly or indirectly securing repayment
of Borrower's Loan and Note, that would be prior or that may in any way be
superior to Lender's Security Interests and rights in and to such
Collateral.

and all Related Documents are binding upon the signers thereof, as well as
upon their successors, representatives and assigns.

regulation, order or directive, at or affecting any property or any
facility owned, leased or used by Borrower.
Compliance with Governmental Requirements. Comply with all laws,
ordinances, and regulations, now or hereafter in effect, of all
governmental authorities applicable to the conduct of Borrower's
properties, businesses and operations, and to the use or occupancy of the
Collateral, including without limitation, the Americans With Disabilities

regulation and withhold compliance during any proceeding, including
appropriate appeals, so long as Borrower has notified Lender in writing

interests in the Collateral are not jeopardized. Lender may require

and to make copies and memoranda of Borrower's books, accounts, and
records. If Borrower now or at any time hereafter maintains any records
(including without limitation computer generated records and computer
software programs for the generation of such records) in the possession of
a third party, Borrower, upon request of Lender, shall notify such party to
permit Lender free access to such records at all reasonable times and to
provide Lender with copies of any records it may request, all at Borrower's
expense.
Compliance Certificates. Unless waived in writing by Lender, provide Lender
at least annually with a certificate executed by Borrower's chief financial

correct as of the date of the certificate and further certifying that, as
of the date of the certificate, no Event of Default exists under this
Agreement.

with any and all Environmental Laws; not cause or permit to exist, as a
result of an intentional or unintentional action or omission on Borrower's
part or on the part of any third party, on property owned and/or occupied
by Borrower, any environmental activity where damage may result to the
environment, unless such environmental activity is pursuant to and in
compliance with the conditions of a permit issued by the appropriate
federal, state or local governmental authorities; shall furnish to Lender
promptly and in any event within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof a
copy of any notice, summons, lien, citation, directive, letter or other

any intentional or unintentional action or omission on Borrower's part in
connection with any environmental activity whether or not there is damage
to the environment and/or other natural resources.
Additional Assurances. Make, execute and deliver to Lender such promissory
notes, mortgages, deeds of trust, security agreements, assignments,
financing statements, instruments, documents and other agreements as Lender
or its attorneys may reasonably request to evidence and secure the Loans
and to perfect all Security Interests.
LENDER'S EXPENDITURES. If any action or proceeding is commenced that would
materially affect Lender's interest in the Collateral or if Borrower fails to
comply with any provision of this Agreement or any Related Documents, including
but not limited to Borrower's failure to discharge or pay when due any amounts
Borrower is required to discharge or pay under this Agreement or any Related
Documents, Lender on Borrower's behalf may (but shall not be obligated to) take
any action that Lender deems appropriate, including but not limited to
discharging or paying all taxes, liens, security interests, encumbrances and
other claims, at any time levied or placed on any Collateral and paying all
costs for insuring, maintaining and preserving any Collateral. All such
expenditures incurred or paid by Lender for such purposes will then bear
interest at the rate charged under the Note from the date incurred or paid by
Lender to the date of repayment by Borrower. All such expenses will become a
part of the Indebtedness and, at Lender's option, will (A) be payable on demand;
(B) be added to the balance of the Note and be apportioned among and be payable
with any installment payments to become due during either (1) the term of any
applicable insurance policy; or (2) the remaining term of the Note; or (C) be
treated as a balloon payment which will be due and payable at the Note's
maturity.
NEGATIVE COVENANTS. Borrower covenants and agrees with Lender that while this
Agreement is in effect, Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of
Lender:
Indebtedness and Liens. (1) Except for trade debt incurred in the normal
course of business and indebtedness to Lender contemplated by this
Agreement, create, incur or assume indebtedness for borrowed money,
including capital leases, (2) sell, transfer, mortgage, assign, pledge,
lease, grant a security interest in, or encumber any of Borrower's assets
(except as allowed as Permitted Liens), or (3) sell with recourse any of
Borrower's accounts, except to Lender.
Continuity of Operations. (1) Engage in any business activities
substantially different than those in which Borrower is presently engaged,
(2) cease operations, liquidate, merge, transfer, or consolidate with any
other entity, change its name, dissolve or transfer or sell Collateral out
of the ordinary course of business, (3) pay any dividends on Borrower's
stock (other than dividends payable in its stock), or (4) purchase or
retire any of Borrower's outstanding shares or alter or amend Borrower's
capital structure.
Loans, Acquisitions and Guaranties. (1) Loan, invest in or advance money or
assets, or (2) incur any obligation as surety or guarantor other than in
the ordinary course of business.
CESSATION OF ADVANCES. If Lender has made any commitment to make any Loan to
Borrower, whether under this Agreement or under any other agreement, Lender
shall have no obligation to make Loan Advances or to disburse Loan proceeds if:
(A) Borrower or any Guarantor is in default under the terms of this Agreement or
any of the Related Documents or any other agreement that Borrower has with
Lender; or (B) Borrower or any Guarantor or becomes insolvent, files a petition
in bankruptcy or similar proceedings, or is adjudged a bankrupt.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. See Addendum.
DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an Event of Default under this
Agreement:
Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under the
Loan.
Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term,
obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any of
the Related Documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and
Borrower.
Default in Favor of Third Parties. Borrower or any Grantor defaults and the
amount is accelerated under any loan, extension of credit, security
agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of
any other creditor or person that may materially affect any of Borrower's
or any Grantor's property or Borrower's or any Grantor's ability to repay
the Loans or perform their respective obligations under this Agreement or
any of the Related Documents.
False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf under this
Agreement or the Related Documents is false or misleading in any material
respect, either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or
misleading at any time thereafter.
Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver
for any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of
creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.
Defective Collateralization. This Agreement or any of the Related Documents
ceases to be in full force and effect (including failure of any collateral
document to create a valid and perfected security interest or lien) at any
time and for any reason.
Creditor or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceeding, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any
governmental agency against any collateral securing the Loan. This includes
a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts, including deposit accounts,
with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a
good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the
claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if
Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture
proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in
its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.
See Addendum
EFFECT OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT. If any Event of Default shall occur, except where
otherwise provided in this Agreement or the Related Documents, all commitments
and obligations of Lender under this Agreement or the Related Documents or any
other agreement immediately will terminate (including any obligation to make
further Loan Advances or disbursements), and, at Lender's option, all
Indebtedness immediately will become due and payable, all without notice of any
kind to Borrower, except that in the case of an Event of Default of the type
described in the "Insolvency" subsection above, such acceleration shall be
automatic and not optional. In addition, Lender shall have all the rights and
remedies provided in the Related Documents or available at law, in equity, or
otherwise. Except as may be prohibited by applicable law, all of Lender's rights
and remedies shall be cumulative and may be exercised singularly or
concurrently. Election by Lender to pursue any remedy shall not exclude pursuit
of any other remedy, and an election to make expenditures or to take action to
perform an obligation of Borrower or of any Grantor shall not affect Lender's
right to declare a default and to exercise its rights and remedies.
GUARANTOR'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS.

Annual Statements for Individual Guarantors. As soon as available after the
end of each fiscal year, Guarantor's balance sheet and income statement for

at the end of that month, all in a form acceptable to Lender.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Agreement:
Amendments. This Agreement, together with any Related Documents,

matters set forth in this Agreement. No alteration of or amendment to this
Agreement shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the
party or parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or
amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Borrower agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Agreement. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this
Agreement, and Borrower shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and
legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. Borrower also shall pay all court costs
and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Agreement are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Agreement.
Consent to Loan Participation. Borrower agrees and consents to Lender's
sale or transfer, whether now or later, of one or more participation
interests in the Loan to one or more purchasers, whether related or
unrelated to Lender. Subject to securities laws, Lender may provide,
without any limitation whatsoever, to any one or more purchasers, or
potential purchasers, any information or knowledge Lender may have about
Borrower or about any other matter relating to the Loan, and Borrower
hereby waives any rights to privacy Borrower may have with respect to such
matters. Borrower additionally waives any and all notices of sale of
participation interests, as well as all notices of any repurchase of such
participation interests. Borrower also agrees that the purchasers of any
such participation interests will be considered as the absolute owners of
such interests in the Loan and will have all the rights granted under the
participation agreement or agreements governing the sale of such
participation interests. Borrower further waives all rights of offset or
counterclaim that it may have now or later against Lender or against any
purchaser of such a participation interest and unconditionally agrees that
either Lender or such purchaser may enforce Borrower's obligation under the
Loan irrespective of the failure or insolvency of any holder of any
interest in the Loan. Borrower further agrees that the purchaser of any
such participation interests may enforce its interests irrespective of any
personal claims or defenses that Borrower may have against Lender.
Governing Law. This Agreement will be governed by, construed and enforced
in accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Oregon. This
Agreement has been accepted by Lender in the State of Oregon.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
under this Agreement unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
Lender of a provision of this Agreement shall not prejudice or constitute a
waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Agreement. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Borrower, or between
Lender and any Grantor, shall constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights
or of any of Borrower's or any Grantor's obligations as to any future
transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender is required under this
Agreement, the granting of such consent by Lender in any instance shall not
constitute continuing consent to subsequent instances where such consent is
required and in all cases such consent may be granted or withheld in the
sole discretion of Lender.
Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement shall be
given in writing, and shall be effective when actually delivered, when
actually received by telefacsimile (unless otherwise required by law), when
deposited with a nationally recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed,
when deposited in the United States mail, as first class, certified or
registered mail postage prepaid, directed to the addresses shown near the
beginning of this Agreement. Any party may change its address for notices
under this Agreement by giving formal written notice to the other parties,
specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's address.
For notice purposes, Borrower agrees to keep Lender informed at all times
of Borrower's current address. Unless otherwise provided or required by
law, if there is more than one Borrower, any notice given by Lender to any
Borrower is deemed to be notice given to all Borrowers.
Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of
this Agreement to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable as to any
circumstance, that finding shall not make the offending provision illegal,
invalid, or unenforceable as to any other circumstance. If feasible, the
offending provision shall be considered modified so that it becomes legal,
valid and enforceable. If the offending provision cannot be so modified, it
shall be considered deleted from this Agreement. Unless otherwise required
by law, the illegality, invalidity, or unenforceability of any provision of
this Agreement shall not affect the legality, validity or enforceability of
any other provision of this Agreement.
Subsidiaries and Affiliates of Borrower. To the extent the context of any
provisions of this Agreement makes it appropriate, including without
limitation any representation, warranty or covenant, the word "Borrower" as
used in this Agreement shall include all of Borrower's subsidiaries and

that in making the Loan, Lender is relying on all representations,
warranties, and covenants made by Borrower in this Agreement or in any
certificate or other instrument delivered by Borrower to Lender under this
Agreement or the Related Documents. Borrower further agrees that regardless
of any investigation made by Lender, all such representations, warranties
and covenants will survive the making of the Loan and delivery to Lender of
the Related Documents, shall be continuing in nature, and shall remain in
full force and effect until such time as Borrower's Indebtedness shall be
paid in full, or until this Agreement shall be terminated in the manner
provided above, whichever is the last to occur.

Principal Amount: $182,741.25 Initial Rate: 8.000% Date of Note: September 14, 2001
PROMISE TO PAY. Portland Brewing Company ("Borrower") promises to pay to
Washington Mutual Bank dba Western Bank ("Lender"), or order, in lawful money of
the United States of America, the principal amount of One Hundred Eighty-two
Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-one & 25/100 Dollars ($182,741.25), together with
interest on the unpaid principal balance from September 15, 2001, until paid in
full.
PAYMENT. Subject to any payment changes resulting from changes in the Index,
Borrower will pay this loan in 36 payments of $5,735.47 each payment. Borrower's
first payment is due October 15, 2001, and all subsequent payments are due on
the same day of each month after that. Borrower's final payment will be due on
September 15, 2004, and will be for all principal and all accrued interest not
yet paid. Payments include principal and interest. Unless otherwise agreed or
required by applicable law, payments will be applied first to accrued unpaid
interest, then to principal, and any remaining amount to any unpaid collection
costs and late charges. The annual interest rate for this Note is computed on a
365/360 basis; that is, by applying the ratio of the annual interest rate over a
year of 360 days, multiplied by the outstanding principal balance, multiplied by
the actual number of days the principal balance is outstanding. Borrower will
pay Lender at Lender's address shown above or at such other place as Lender may
designate in writing.
VARIABLE INTEREST RATE. The interest rate on this Note is subject to change from
time to time based on changes in an independent index which is the annual
interest rate, adjusted daily, published from time to time in The Wall Street
Journal (Western Edition) as the "Prime Rate" in the "Money Rates" section, as
of any date of determination (the "Index"). The Index is not necessarily the
lowest rate charged by Lender on its loans. If the Index becomes unavailable
during the term of this loan, Lender may designate a substitute index after
notice to Borrower. Lender will tell Borrower the current Index rate upon
Borrower's request. The interest rate change will not occur more often than each
day. Borrower understands that Lender may make loans based on other rates as
well. The Index currently is 6.500% per annum. The interest rate to be applied
to the unpaid principal balance of this Note will be at a rate of 1.500
percentage points over the Index, resulting in an initial rate of 8.000% per
annum. NOTICE: Under no circumstances will the interest rate on this Note be
more than the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Whenever increases occur
in the interest rate, Lender, at its option, may do one or more of the
following: (A) increase Borrower's payments to ensure Borrower's loan will pay
off by its original final maturity date, (B) increase Borrower's payments to
cover accruing interest, (C) increase the number of Borrower's payments, and (D)
continue Borrower's payments at the same amount and increase Borrower's final
payment.
PREPAYMENT. Borrower agrees that all loan fees and other prepaid finance charges
are earned fully as of the date of the loan and will not be subject to refund
upon early payment (whether voluntary or as a result of default), except as
otherwise required by law. Except for the foregoing, Borrower may pay without
penalty all or a portion of the amount owed earlier than it is due. Early
payments will not, unless agreed to by Lender in writing, relieve Borrower of
Borrower's obligation to continue to make payments under the payment schedule.
Rather, early payments will reduce the principal balance due and may result in
Borrower's making fewer payments. Borrower agrees not to send Lender payments
marked "paid in full," "without recourse," or similar language. If Borrower
sends such payment, Lender may accept it without losing any of Lender's rights
under this Note, and Borrower will remain obligated to pay any further amount
owed to Lender. All written communications concerning disputed amounts,
including any check or other payment instrument that indicates that the payment
constitutes "payment in full" of the amount owed or that is tendered with other
conditions or limitations or as full satisfaction of a disputed amount must be
mailed or delivered to: Washington Mutual Bank dba Western Bank, Beaverton
Business Banking Center, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.
LATE CHARGE. If a payment is 10 days or more late, Borrower will be charged
5.000% of the unpaid portion of the regularly scheduled interest payment or
$25.00, whichever is greater.
INTEREST AFTER DEFAULT. Upon default, including failure to pay upon final
maturity, Lender, at its option, may, if permitted under applicable law,
increase the variable interest rate on this Note to 7.500 percentage points over
the Index. The interest rate will not exceed the maximum rate permitted by
applicable law.
DEFAULT. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default ("Event of
Default") under this Note:
Payment Default. Borrower fails to make any payment when due under this
Note.
Other Defaults. Borrower fails to comply with or to perform any other term,
obligation, covenant or condition contained in this Note or in any of the
related documents or to comply with or to perform any term, obligation,
covenant or condition contained in any other agreement between Lender and
Borrower.
Default In Favor of Third Parties. Borrower or any Grantor defaults or any
such amount is accelerated under any loan, extension of credit, security
agreement, purchase or sales agreement, or any other agreement, in favor of
any other creditor or person that may materially affect any of Borrower's
property or Borrower's ability to repay this Note or perform Borrower's
obligations under this Note or any of the related documents.
False Statements. Any warranty, representation or statement made or
furnished to Lender by Borrower or on Borrower's behalf under this Note or
the related documents is false or misleading in any material respect,
either now or at the time made or furnished or becomes false or misleading
at any time thereafter.
Insolvency. The dissolution or termination of Borrower's existence as a
going business, the insolvency of Borrower, the appointment of a receiver
for any part of Borrower's property, any assignment for the benefit of
creditors, any type of creditor workout, or the commencement of any
proceeding under any bankruptcy or insolvency laws by or against Borrower.
Creditor or Forfeiture Proceedings. Commencement of foreclosure or
forfeiture proceedings, whether by judicial proceedings, self-help,
repossession or any other method, by any creditor of Borrower or by any
governmental agency against any collateral securing the loan. This includes
a garnishment of any of Borrower's accounts, including deposit accounts,
with Lender. However, this Event of Default shall not apply if there is a
good faith dispute by Borrower as to the validity or reasonableness of the
claim which is the basis of the creditor or forfeiture proceeding and if
Borrower gives Lender written notice of the creditor or forfeiture
proceeding and deposits with Lender monies or a surety bond for the
creditor or forfeiture proceeding, in an amount determined by Lender, in
its sole discretion, as being an adequate reserve or bond for the dispute.
See Addendum.
LENDER'S RIGHTS. Upon default, Lender may declare the entire unpaid principal
balance on this Note and all accrued unpaid interest immediately due, and then
Borrower will pay that amount.
ATTORNEYS' FEES; EXPENSES. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help collect
this Note if Borrower does not pay. Borrower will pay Lender that amount. This
includes, subject to any limits under applicable law, Lender's attorneys' fees
and Lender's legal expenses, whether or not there is a lawsuit, including
attorneys' fees, expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to
modify or vacate any automatic stay or injunction), and appeals. If not
prohibited by applicable law, Borrower also will pay any court costs, in
addition to all other sums provided by law.
GOVERNING LAW. This Note will be governed by, construed and enforced in
accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Oregon. This Note has
been accepted by Lender in the State of Oregon.
DISHONORED ITEM FEE. Borrower will pay a fee to Lender of $12.50 if Borrower
makes a payment on Borrower's loan and the check or preauthorized charge with
which Borrower pays is later dishonored.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. See Addendum.
SUCCESSOR INTERESTS. The terms of this Note shall be binding upon Borrower, and
upon Borrower's heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns, and
shall inure to the benefit of Lender and its successors and assigns.
GENERAL PROVISIONS. Lender may delay or forgo enforcing any of its rights or
remedies under this Note without losing them. Borrower and any other person who
signs, guarantees or endorses this Note, to the extent allowed by law, waive
presentment, demand for payment, and notice of dishonor. Upon any change in the
terms of this Note, and unless otherwise expressly stated in writing, no party
who signs this Note, whether as maker, guarantor, accommodation maker or
endorser, shall be released from liability. All such parties agree that Lender
may renew or extend (repeatedly and for any length of time) this loan or release
any party or guarantor or collateral; or impair, fail to realize upon or perfect
Lender's security interest in the collateral; and take any other action deemed
necessary by Lender without the consent of or notice to anyone. All such parties
also agree that Lender may modify this loan without the consent of or notice to
anyone other than the party with whom the modification is made. The obligations
under this Note are joint and several.

AMOUNT OF GUARANTY. The amount of this Guaranty is One Hundred Eighty-two
Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-one & 25/100 Dollars ($182,741.25).
CONTINUING GUARANTY. For good and valuable consideration, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇
("Guarantor") absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay to
Washington Mutual Bank dba Western Bank ("Lender") or its order, in legal tender
of the United States of America, the Indebtedness (as that term is defined
below) of Portland Brewing Company ("Borrower") to Lender on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Guaranty. The obligations of Guarantor under this
Guaranty are continuing.
MAXIMUM LIABILITY. The maximum liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall
not exceed at any one time $182,741.25 plus all costs and expenses of (A)
enforcement of this Guaranty and (B) collection and sale of any collateral
securing this Guaranty.
The above limitation on liability is not a restriction on the amount of the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender either in the aggregate or at any one time.
If Lender presently holds one or more guaranties, or hereafter receives
additional guaranties from Guarantor, Lender's rights under all guaranties shall
be cumulative. This Guaranty shall not (unless specifically provided below to
the contrary) affect or invalidate any such other guaranties. Guarantor's
liability will be Guarantor's aggregate liability under the terms of this
Guaranty and any such other unterminated guaranties.
INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness is guaranteed and whether any such
Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute
or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether
Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or
secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness may
be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason
whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be
voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra ▇▇▇▇▇, or otherwise.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender
without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or
to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all Indebtedness incurred or
contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been
fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's other obligations
under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to
revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written
notice of revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender's
address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new
Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's written
revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness"
does not include Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is
contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes
absolute, liquidated, determined or due. This Guaranty will continue to bind
Guarantor for all Indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior
to receipt of Guarantor's written notice of revocation, including any
extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All
renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness
granted after Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and,
specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall
bind Guarantor's estate as to Indebtedness created both before and after
Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of
Guarantor's death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's executor or
administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the
same manner in which Guarantor might have terminated it and with the same
effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of
the Indebtedness shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this
Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not
affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. It is
anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Indebtedness
covered by this Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees
that reductions in the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00),
prior to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a
termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and
Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed
Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness guaranteed may from
time to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before
or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening
Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to
revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional secured or
unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or
otherwise to extend additional credit to Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise,
renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for
payment or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness,
including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the Indebtedness;
and extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan
term; (C) to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the
Indebtedness; exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to
perfect, and release any such security, with or without the substitution of new
collateral; (D) to release, substitute, agree not to ▇▇▇, or deal with any one
or more of Borrower's sureties, endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or

credit to Borrower; (B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of
any kind, including notice of any nonpayment of the Indebtedness or of any

applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (F) to pursue any other
remedy within Lender's power; or (G) to commit any act or omission of any kind,
or at any time, with respect to any matter whatsoever.
Guarantor also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A)

thereafter Lender is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's
trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors, the Indebtedness shall be
considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.

deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any claim of setoff,
counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such claim,
demand or right may be asserted by the Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.

that each of the waivers set forth above is made with Guarantor's full knowledge
of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the
waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. If any such
waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such
waiver shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. See Addendum.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter created,
shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire
against Borrower, whether or not Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby
expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any
account whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against
Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the assets of
Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by
voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the
payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and
shall be first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender.
Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire
against Borrower or against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower;
provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose
of assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If
Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing
any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend
that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall be delivered to Lender.
Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor,
from time to time to execute and file financing statements and continuation
statements and to execute such other documents and to take such other actions as
Lender deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its
rights under this Guaranty.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Guaranty:
Amendments. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes
the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set
forth in this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty
shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the party or
parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Guaranty. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this
Guaranty, and Guarantor shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and
legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. Guarantor also shall pay all court costs
and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Guaranty.
Governing Law. This Guaranty will be governed by, construed and enforced in
accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Oregon. This
Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the State of Oregon.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully
understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity
to be advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the
Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol evidence is not
required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby
indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses, claims, damages, and
costs (including Lender's attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender
as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the warranties, representations
and agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or
Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be
deemed to have been used in the plural where the context and construction
so require; and where there is more than one Borrower named in this
Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the
words "Borrower" and "Guarantor" respectively shall mean all and any one or
more of them. The words "Guarantor," "Borrower," and "Lender" include the
heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees of each of them. If a court
finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be
enforced, that fact by itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty
will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of
the provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty may be
found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of Borrower or
Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or
similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers
of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers,
or other agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Loan
indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of
such powers shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given
in writing, and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be
effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile
(unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally
recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid,
directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty. All
revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective
upon delivery to Lender as provided in the section of this Guaranty
entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any party may change its address for
notices under this Guaranty by giving formal written notice to the other
parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's
address. For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep Lender informed at
all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or
required by law, if there is more than one Guarantor, any notice given by
Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a
waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Guarantor, shall
constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's
obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender
is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in
any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. Subject to any limitations stated in this Guaranty
on transfer of Guarantor's interest, this Guaranty shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns.

meanings when used in this Guaranty. Unless specifically stated to the contrary,

AMOUNT OF GUARANTY. The amount of this Guaranty is One Hundred Eighty-two
Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-one & 25/100 Dollars ($182,741.25).
CONTINUING GUARANTY. For good and valuable consideration, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇
Family Trust ("Guarantor") absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and
promises to pay to Washington Mutual Bank dba Western Bank ("Lender") or its
order, in legal tender of the United States of America, the Indebtedness (as
that term is defined below) of Portland Brewing Company ("Borrower") to Lender
on the terms and conditions set forth in this Guaranty. The obligations of
Guarantor under this Guaranty are continuing.
MAXIMUM LIABILITY. The maximum liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall
not exceed at any one time $182,741.25 plus all costs and expenses of (A)
enforcement of this Guaranty and (B) collection and sale of any collateral
securing this Guaranty.
The above limitation on liability is not a restriction on the amount of the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender either in the aggregate or at any one time.
If Lender presently holds one or more guaranties, or hereafter receives
additional guaranties from Guarantor, Lender's rights under all guaranties shall
be cumulative. This Guaranty shall not (unless specifically provided below to
the contrary) affect or invalidate any such other guaranties. Guarantor's
liability will be Guarantor's aggregate liability under the terms of this
Guaranty and any such other unterminated guaranties.
INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness is guaranteed is and whether any such
Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute
or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether
Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or
secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness may
be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason
whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be
voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra ▇▇▇▇▇, or otherwise.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender
without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or
to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all Indebtedness incurred or
contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been
fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's other obligations
under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to
revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written
notice of revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender's
address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new
Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's written
revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness"
does not include Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is
contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes
absolute, liquidated, determined or due. This Guaranty will continue to bind
Guarantor for all Indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior
to receipt of Guarantor's written notice of revocation, including any
extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All
renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness
granted after Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and,
specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall
bind Guarantor's estate as to Indebtedness created both before and after
Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of
Guarantor's death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's executor or
administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the
same manner in which Guarantor might have terminated it and with the same
effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of
the Indebtedness shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this
Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not
affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. It is
anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Indebtedness
covered by this Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees
that reductions in the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00),
prior to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a
termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and
Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed
Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness guaranteed may from
time to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before
or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening
Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to
revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional secured or
unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or
otherwise to extend additional credit to Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise,
renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for
payment or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness,
including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the Indebtedness;
extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan term;
(C) to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the
Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to
perfect, and release any such security, with or without the substitution of new
collateral; (D) to release, substitute, agree not to ▇▇▇, or deal with any one
or more of Borrower's sureties, endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or
in any manner Lender may choose; (E) to determine how, when and what application

credit to Borrower; (B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of
any kind, including notice of any nonpayment of the Indebtedness or of any

thereafter Lender is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's
trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors, the Indebtedness shall be
considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor further waives and agrees not to assert or claim at any time any
deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any claim of setoff,
counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such claim,
demand or right may be asserted by the Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.

that each of the waivers set forth above is made with Guarantor's full knowledge
of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the

waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such
waiver shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. See Addendum.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter created,
shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire
against Borrower, whether or not Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby
expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any
account whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against
Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the assets of
Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by
voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the
payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and
shall be first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender.
Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire
against Borrower or against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower;
provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose
of assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If
Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing
any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend
that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall be delivered to Lender.
Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor,
from time to time to execute and file financing statements and continuation
statements and to execute such other documents and to take such other actions as
Lender deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its
rights under this Guaranty.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Guaranty:
Amendments. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes
the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set
forth in this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty
shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the party or
parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Guaranty. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this
Guaranty, and Guarantor shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and
legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. Guarantor also shall pay all court costs
and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Guaranty.
Governing Law. This Guaranty will be governed by, construed and enforced in
accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Oregon. This
Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the State of Oregon.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully
understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity
to be advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the
Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol evidence is not
required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby
indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses, claims, damages, and
costs (including Lender's attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender
as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the warranties, representations
and agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or
Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be
deemed to have been used in the plural where the context and construction
so require; and where there is more than one Borrower named in this
Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the
words "Borrower" and "Guarantor" respectively shall mean all and any one or
more of them. The words "Guarantor," "Borrower," and "Lender" include the
heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees of each of them. If a court
finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be
enforced, that fact by itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty
will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of
the provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty may be
found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of Borrower or
Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or
similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers
of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers,
or other agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Loan
indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of
such powers shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given
in writing, and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be
effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile
(unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally
recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid,
directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty. All
revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective
upon delivery to Lender as provided in the section of this Guaranty
entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any party may change its address for
notices under this Guaranty by giving formal written notice to the other
parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's
address. For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep Lender informed at
all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or
required by law, if there is more than one Guarantor, any notice given by
Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a
waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Guarantor, shall
constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's
obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender
is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in
any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. Subject to any limitations stated in this Guaranty
on transfer of Guarantor's interest, this Guaranty shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns.

AMOUNT OF GUARANTY. The amount of this Guaranty is One Hundred Eighty-two
Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-one & 25/100 Dollars ($182,741.25).
CONTINUING GUARANTY. For good and valuable consideration, MacTarnahan Family
Trust ("Guarantor") absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and promises to
pay to Washington Mutual Bank dba Western Bank ("Lender") or its order, in legal
tender of the United States of America, the Indebtedness (as that term is
defined below) of Portland Brewing Company ("Borrower") to Lender on the terms
and conditions set forth in this Guaranty. The obligations of Guarantor under
this Guaranty are continuing.
MAXIMUM LIABILITY. The maximum liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall
not exceed at any one time $182,741.25 plus all costs and expenses of (A)
enforcement of this Guaranty and (B) collection and sale of any collateral
securing this Guaranty.
The above limitation on liability is not a restriction on the amount of the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender either in the aggregate or at any one time.
If Lender presently holds one or more guaranties, or hereafter receives
additional guaranties from Guarantor, Lender's rights under all guaranties shall
be cumulative. This Guaranty shall not (unless specifically provided below to
the contrary) affect or invalidate any such other guaranties. Guarantor's
liability will be Guarantor's aggregate liability under the terms of this
Guaranty and any such other unterminated guaranties.
INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness is guaranteed and whether any such
Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute
or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether
Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or
secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness may
be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason
whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be
voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra ▇▇▇▇▇, or otherwise.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender
without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or
to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all Indebtedness incurred or
contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been
fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's other obligations
under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to
revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written
notice of revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender's
address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new
Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's written
revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness"
does not include Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is
contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes
absolute, liquidated, determined or due. This Guaranty will continue to bind
Guarantor for all Indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior
to receipt of Guarantor's written notice of revocation, including any
extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All
renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness
granted after Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and,
specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall
bind Guarantor's estate as to Indebtedness created both before and after
Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of
Guarantor's death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's executor or
administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the
same manner in which Guarantor might have terminated it and with the same
effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of
the Indebtedness shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this
Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not
affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. It is
anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Indebtedness
covered by this Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees
that reductions in the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00),
prior to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a
termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and
Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed
Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness guaranteed may from
time to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before
or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening
Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to
revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional secured or
unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or
otherwise to extend additional credit to Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise,
renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for
payment or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness,
including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the Indebtedness;
extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan term;
(C) to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the
Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to
perfect, and release any such security, with or without the substitution of new
collateral; (D) to release, substitute, agree not to ▇▇▇, or deal with any one
or more of Borrower's sureties, endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or
in any manner Lender may choose; (E) to determine how, when and what application
of payments and credits shall be made on the Indebtedness (F) to apply such
security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including without
limitation, any nonjudicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling
security agreement or deed of trust, as Lender in its discretion may determine;
(G) to sell, transfer, assign or grant participations in all or any part of the
Indebtedness; and (H) to assign or transfer this Guaranty in whole or in part.
GUARANTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Guarantor represents and warrants to
Lender that (A) no representations or agreements of any kind have been made to
Guarantor which would limit or qualify in any way the terms of this Guaranty;
(B) this Guaranty is executed at Borrower's request and not at the request of
Lender; (C) Guarantor has full power, right and authority to enter into this
Guaranty; (D) the provisions of this Guaranty do not conflict with or result in
a default under any agreement or other instrument binding upon Guarantor and do

applicable to Guarantor; (E) Guarantor has not and will not, without the prior
written consent of Lender, sell, lease, assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer,
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor's assets, or any
interest therein; (F) upon Lender's request, Guarantor will provide to Lender
financial and credit information in form acceptable to Lender, and all such
financial information which currently has been, and all future financial
information which will be provided to Lender is and will be true and correct in
all material respects and fairly present Guarantor's financial condition as of
the dates the financial information is provided; (G) no material adverse change
has occurred in Guarantor's financial condition since the date of the most
recent financial statements provided to Lender and no event has occurred which
may materially adversely affect Guarantor's financial condition; (H) no
litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action
(including those for unpaid taxes) against Guarantor is pending or threatened;
(I) Lender has made no representation to Guarantor as to the creditworthiness of
Borrower; and (J) Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from
Borrower on a continuing basis information regarding Borrower's financial
condition. Guarantor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any
facts, events, or circumstances which might in any way affect Guarantor's risks
under this Guaranty, and Guarantor further agrees that, absent a request for
information, Lender shall have no obligation to disclose to Guarantor any
information or documents acquired by Lender in the course of its relationship
with Borrower.
GUARANTOR'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Guarantor agrees to furnish Lender with the
following:
Annual Statements. As soon as available after the end of each fiscal year,
Guarantor's balance sheet and income statement for the year ended, complied
by a certified public accountant satisfactory to Lender.
Tax Returns. As soon as available, but in no event later than thirty (30)
days after the applicable filing date for the tax reporting period ended,
Federal and other governmental tax returns, prepared by Guarantor.
Additional Requirements. Tax Returns to include all supplemental schedules
together with K-1's.
Guarantor's Financial Statements to be submitted with Tax Returns.
All financial reports required to be provided under this Guaranty shall be
prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied on a consistent basis, and certified
by Guarantor as being true and correct.
GUARANTOR'S WAIVERS. Except as prohibited by applicable law, Guarantor waives
any right to require Lender (A) to continue lending money or to extend other
credit to Borrower; (B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of
any kind, including notice of any nonpayment of the Indebtedness or of any
nonpayment related to any collateral, or notice of any action or nonaction on
the part of Borrower, Lender, any surety, endorser, or other guarantor in
connection with the Indebtedness or in connection with the creation of new or
additional loans or obligations; (C) to resort for payment or to proceed
directly or at once against any person, including Borrower or any other
guarantor; (D) to proceed directly against or exhaust any collateral held by
Lender from Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person; (E) to give
notice of the terms, time, and place of any public or private sale of personal
property security held by Lender from Borrower or to comply with any other
applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (F) to pursue any other
remedy within Lender's power; or (G) to commit any act or omission of any kind,
or at any time, with respect to any matter whatsoever.
Guarantor also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A)
any "one action" or "anti-deficiency" law or any other law which may prevent
Lender from bringing any action, including a claim for deficiency, against
Guarantor, before or after Lender's commencement or completion of any
foreclosure action, either judicially or by exercise of a power of sale; (B) any
election of remedies by Lender which destroys or otherwise adversely affects
Guarantor's subrogation rights or Guarantor's rights to proceed against Borrower
for reimbursement, including without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor
may suffer by reason of any law limiting, qualifying, or discharging the
Indebtedness; (C) any disability or other defense of Borrower, of any other
guarantor, or of any other person, or by reason of the cessation of Borrower's
liability from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full in legal tender,
of the Indebtedness; (D) any right to claim discharge of the Indebtedness on the
basis of unjustified impairment of any collateral for the Indebtedness; (E) any
statute of limitations, if at any time any action or suit brought by Lender
against Guarantor is commenced, there is outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower to
Lender which is not barred by any applicable statute of limitations; or (F) any
defenses given to guarantors at law or in equity other than actual payment and
performance of the Indebtedness. If payment is made by Borrower, whether
voluntarily or otherwise, or by any third party, on the Indebtedness and
thereafter Lender is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's
trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors, the Indebtedness shall be
considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor further waives and agrees not to assert or claim at any time any
deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any claim of setoff,
counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such claim,
demand or right may be asserted by the Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.
GUARANTOR'S UNDERSTANDING WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS. Guarantor warrants and agrees
that each of the waivers set forth above is made with Guarantor's full knowledge
of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the
waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. If any such
waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such
waiver shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. See Addendum.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter created,
shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire
against Borrower, whether or not Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby
expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any
account whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against
Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the assets of
Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by
voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the
payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and
shall be first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender.
Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire
against Borrower or against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower;
provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose
of assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If
Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing
any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend
that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall be delivered to Lender.
Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor,
from time to time to execute and file financing statements and continuation
statements and to execute such other documents and to take such other actions as
Lender deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its
rights under this Guaranty.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Guaranty:
Amendments. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes
the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set
forth in this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty
shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the party or
parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Guaranty. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this
Guaranty, and Guarantor shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and
legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. Guarantor also shall pay all court costs
and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Guaranty.
Governing Law. This Guaranty will be governed by, construed and enforced in
accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Oregon. This
Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the State of Oregon.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully
understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity
to be advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the
Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol evidence is not
required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby
indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses, claims, damages, and
costs (including Lender's attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender
as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the warranties, representations
and agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or
Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be
deemed to have been used in the plural where the context and construction
so require; and where there is more than one Borrower named in this
Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the
words "Borrower" and "Guarantor" respectively shall mean all and any one or
more of them. The words "Guarantor," "Borrower," and "Lender" include the
heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees of each of them. If a court
finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be
enforced, that fact by itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty
will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of
the provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty may be
found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of Borrower or
Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or
similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers
of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers,
or other agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Loan
indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of
such powers shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given
in writing, and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be
effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile
(unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally
recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid,
directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty. All
revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective
upon delivery to Lender as provided in the section of this Guaranty
entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any party may change its address for
notices under this Guaranty by giving formal written notice to the other
parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's
address. For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep Lender informed at
all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or
required by law, if there is more than one Guarantor, any notice given by
Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a
waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Guarantor shall
constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's
obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender
is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in
any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. Subject to any limitations stated in this Guaranty
or transfer of Guarantor's interest, this Guaranty shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns.

AMOUNT OF GUARANTY. The amount of this Guaranty is One Hundred Eighty-two
Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-one & 25/100 Dollars ($182,741.25).
CONTINUING GUARANTY. For good and valuable consideration, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
("Guarantor") absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and promises to pay to
Washington Mutual Bank dba Western Bank ("Lender") or its order, in legal tender
of the United States of America, the Indebtedness (as that term is defined
below) of Portland Brewing Company ("Borrower") to Lender on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Guaranty. The obligations of Guarantor under this
Guaranty are continuing.
MAXIMUM LIABILITY. The maximum liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall
not exceed at any one time $182,741.25 plus all costs and expenses of (A)
enforcement of this Guaranty and (B) collection and sale of any collateral
securing this Guaranty.
The above limitation on liability is not a restriction on the amount of the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender either in the aggregate or at any one time.
If Lender presently holds one or more guaranties, or hereafter receives
additional guaranties from Guarantor, Lender's rights under all guaranties shall
be cumulative. This Guaranty shall not (unless specifically provided below to
the contrary) affect or invalidate any such other guaranties. Guarantor's
liability will be Guarantor's aggregate liability under the terms of this
Guaranty and any such other unterminated guaranties.
INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness is guaranteed is and whether any such
Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute
or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether
Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or
secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness may
be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason
whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be
voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra ▇▇▇▇▇, or otherwise.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender
without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or
to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all Indebtedness incurred or
contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been
fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's other obligations
under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to
revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written
notice of revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender's
address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new
Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's written
revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness"
does not include Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is
contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes
absolute, liquidated, determined or due. This Guaranty will continue to bind
Guarantor for all Indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior
to receipt of Guarantor's written notice of revocation, including any
extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All
renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness
granted after Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and,
specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall
bind Guarantor's estate as to Indebtedness created both before and after
Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of
Guarantor's death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's executor or
administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the
same manner in which Guarantor might have terminated it and with the same
effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of
the Indebtedness shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this
Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not
affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. It is
anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Indebtedness
covered by this Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees
that reductions in the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00),
prior to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a
termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and
Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed
Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness guaranteed may from
time to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before
or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening
Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to

against Guarantor is commenced, there is outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower to
Lender which is not barred by any applicable statute of limitations; or (F) any
defenses given to guarantors at law or in equity other than actual payment and
performance of the Indebtedness. If payment is made by Borrower, whether
voluntarily or otherwise, or by any third party, on the Indebtedness and
thereafter Lender is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's
trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors, the Indebtedness shall be
considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor further waives and agrees not to assert or claim at any time any
deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any claim of setoff,
counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such claim,
demand or right may be asserted by the Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.
GUARANTOR'S UNDERSTANDING WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS. Guarantor warrants and agrees
that each of the waivers set forth above is made with Guarantor's full knowledge
of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the
waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. If any such
waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such
waiver shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. See Addendum.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter created,
shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire
against Borrower, whether or not Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby
expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any
account whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against
Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the assets of
Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by
voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the
payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and
shall be first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender.
Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire
against Borrower or against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower;
provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose
of assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If
Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing
any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend
that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall be delivered to Lender.
Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor,
from time to time to execute and file financing statements and continuation
statements and to execute such other documents and to take such other actions as
Lender deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its
rights under this Guaranty.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Guaranty:
Amendments. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes
the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set
forth in this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty
shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the party or
parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Guaranty. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this
Guaranty, and Guarantor shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and
legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. Guarantor also shall pay all court costs
and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Guaranty.
Governing Law. This Guaranty will be governed by, construed and enforced in
accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Oregon. This
Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the State of Oregon.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully
understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity
to be advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the
Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol evidence is not
required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby
indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses, claims, damages, and
costs (including Lender's attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender
as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the warranties, representations
and agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or
Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be
deemed to have been used in the plural where the context and construction
so require; and where there is more than one Borrower named in this
Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the
words "Borrower" and "Guarantor" respectively shall mean all and any one or
more of them. The words "Guarantor," "Borrower," and "Lender" include the
heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees of each of them. If a court
finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be
enforced, that fact by itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty
will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of
the provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty may be
found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of Borrower or
Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or
similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers
of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers,
or other agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Loan
indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of
such powers shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given
in writing, and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be
effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile
(unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally
recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid,
directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty. All
revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective
upon delivery to Lender as provided in the section of this Guaranty
entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any party may change its address for
notices under this Guaranty by giving formal written notice to the other
parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's
address. For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep Lender informed at
all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or
required by law, if there is more than one Guarantor, any notice given by
Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a
waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Guarantor, shall
constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's
obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender
is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in
any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. Subject to any limitations stated in this Guaranty
on transfer of Guarantor's interest, this Guaranty shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns.

meanings when used in this Guaranty. Unless specifically stated to the contrary,

AMOUNT OF GUARANTY. The amount of this Guaranty is One Hundred Eighty-two
Thousand Seven Hundred Forty-one & 25/100 Dollars ($182,741.25).
CONTINUING GUARANTY. For good and valuable consideration, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mill & Logging
Supply Co. ("Guarantor") absolutely and unconditionally guarantees and promises
to pay to Washington Mutual Bank dba Western Bank ("Lender") or its order, in
legal tender of the United States of America, the Indebtedness (as that term is
defined below) of Portland Brewing Company ("Borrower") to Lender on the terms
and conditions set forth in this Guaranty. The obligations of Guarantor under
this Guaranty are continuing.
MAXIMUM LIABILITY. The maximum liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall
not exceed at any one time $182,741.25 plus all costs and expenses of (A)
enforcement of this Guaranty and (B) collection and sale of any collateral
securing this Guaranty.
The above limitation on liability is not a restriction on the amount of the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender either in the aggregate or at any one time.
If Lender presently holds one or more guaranties, or hereafter receives
additional guaranties from Guarantor, Lender's rights under all guaranties shall
be cumulative. This Guaranty shall not (unless specifically provided below to
the contrary) affect or invalidate any such other guaranties. Guarantor's
liability will be Guarantor's aggregate liability under the terms of this
Guaranty and any such other unterminated guaranties.
INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness is guaranteed whether any such
Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute
or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether
Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or
secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness may
be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason
whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be
voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra ▇▇▇▇▇, or otherwise.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender
without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or
to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all Indebtedness incurred or
contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been
fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's other obligations
under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to
revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written
notice of revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender's
address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new
Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's written
revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness"
does not include Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is
contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes
absolute, liquidated, determined or due. This Guaranty will continue to bind
Guarantor for all Indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior
to receipt of Guarantor's written notice of revocation, including any
extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All
renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness
granted after Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and,
specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall
bind Guarantor's estate as to Indebtedness created both before and after
Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of
Guarantor's death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's executor or
administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the
same manner in which Guarantor might have terminated it and with the same
effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of
the Indebtedness shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this
Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not
affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. It is
anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Indebtedness
covered by this Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees
that reductions in the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00),
prior to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a
termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and
Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed
Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness guaranteed may from
time to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before
or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening
Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to
revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional secured or
unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or
otherwise to extend additional credit to Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise,
renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for
payment or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness,
including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the Indebtedness;
extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan term;
(C) to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the
Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to
perfect, and release any such security, with or without the substitution of new
collateral; (D) to release, substitute, agree not to ▇▇▇, or deal with any one
or more of Borrower's sureties, endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or
in any manner Lender may choose; (E) to determine how, when and what application
of payments and credits shall be made on the Indebtedness (F) to apply such
security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including without
limitation, any nonjudicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling
security agreement or deed of trust, as Lender in its discretion may determine;
(G) to sell, transfer, assign or grant participations in all or any part of the
Indebtedness; and (H) to assign or transfer this Guaranty in whole or in part.
GUARANTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Guarantor represents and warrants to
Lender that (A) no representations or agreements of any kind have been made to
Guarantor which would limit or qualify in any way the terms of this Guaranty;
(B) this Guaranty is executed at Borrower's request and not at the request of
Lender; (C) Guarantor has full power, right and authority to enter into this
Guaranty; (D) the provisions of this Guaranty do not conflict with or result in
a default under any agreement or other instrument binding upon Guarantor and do
not result in a violation of any law, regulation, court decree or order
applicable to Guarantor; (E) Guarantor has not and will not, without the prior
written consent of Lender, sell, lease, assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer,
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor's assets, or any
interest therein; (F) upon Lender's request, Guarantor will provide to Lender
financial and credit information in form acceptable to Lender, and all such
financial information which currently has been, and all future financial
information which will be provided to Lender is and will be true and correct in
all material respects and fairly present Guarantor's financial condition as of
the dates the financial information is provided; (G) no material adverse change
has occurred in Guarantor's financial condition since the date of the most
recent financial statements provided to Lender and no event has occurred which
may materially adversely affect Guarantor's financial condition; (H) no
litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action
(including those for unpaid taxes) against Guarantor is pending or threatened;
(I) Lender has made no representation to Guarantor as to the creditworthiness of
Borrower; and (J) Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from
Borrower on a continuing basis information regarding Borrower's financial
condition. Guarantor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any
facts, events, or circumstances which might in any way affect Guarantor's risks
under this Guaranty, and Guarantor further agrees that, absent a request for
information, Lender shall have no obligation to disclose to Guarantor any
information or documents acquired by Lender in the course of its relationship
with Borrower.
GUARANTOR'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Guarantor agrees to furnish Lender with the
following:
Annual Statements. As soon as available after the end of each fiscal year,
Guarantor's balance sheet and income statement for the year ended, compiled
by a certified public accountant satisfactory to Lender.
Tax Returns. As soon as available, but in no event later than thirty (30)
days after the applicable filing date for the tax reporting period ended,
Federal and other governmental tax returns, prepared by Guarantor.
Additional Requirements. Tax Returns to include all supplemental schedules
together with K-1's.
Guarantor's Financial Statement to be submitted with Tax Returns.
All financial reports required to be provided under this Guaranty shall be
prepared in accordance with GAAP, applied on a consistent basis, and certified
by Guarantor as being true and correct.
GUARANTOR'S WAIVERS. Except as prohibited by applicable law, Guarantor waives
any right to require Lender (A) to continue lending money or to extend other
credit to Borrower; (B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of
any kind, including notice of any nonpayment of the Indebtedness or of any
nonpayment related to any collateral, or notice of any action or nonaction on
the part of Borrower, Lender, any surety, endorser, or other guarantor in
connection with the Indebtedness or in connection with the creation of new or
additional loans or obligations; (C) to resort for payment or to proceed
directly or at once against any person, including Borrower or any other
guarantor; (D) to proceed directly against or exhaust any collateral held by
Lender from Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person; (E) to give
notice of the terms, time, and place of any public or private sale of personal
property security held by Lender from Borrower or to comply with any other
applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (F) to pursue any other
remedy within Lender's power; or (G) to commit any act or omission of any kind,
or at any time, with respect to any matter whatsoever.
Guarantor also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A)
any "one action" or "anti-deficiency" law or any other law which may prevent
Lender from bringing any action, including a claim for deficiency, against
Guarantor, before or after Lender's commencement or completion of any
foreclosure action, either judicially or by exercise of a power of sale; (B) any
election of remedies by Lender which destroys or otherwise adversely affects
Guarantor's subrogation rights or Guarantor's rights to proceed against Borrower
for reimbursement, including without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor
may suffer by reason of any law limiting, qualifying, or discharging the
Indebtedness; (C) any disability or other defense of Borrower, of any other
guarantor, or of any other person, or by reason of the cessation of Borrower's
liability from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full in legal tender,
of the Indebtedness; (D) any right to claim discharge of the Indebtedness on the
basis of unjustified impairment of any collateral for the Indebtedness; (E) any
statute of limitations, if at any time any action or suit brought by Lender
against Guarantor is commenced, there is outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower to
Lender which is not barred by any applicable statute of limitations; or (F) any
defenses given to guarantors at law or in equity other than actual payment and
performance of the Indebtedness. If payment is made by Borrower, whether
voluntarily or otherwise, or by any third party, on the Indebtedness and
thereafter Lender is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's
trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors, the Indebtedness shall be
considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor further waives and agrees not to assert or claim at any time any
deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any claim of setoff,
counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such claim,
demand or right may be asserted by the Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.
GUARANTOR'S UNDERSTANDING WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS. Guarantor warrants and agrees
that each of the waivers set forth above is made with Guarantor's full knowledge
of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the
waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. If any such
waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such
waiver shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. See Addendum.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter created,
shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire
against Borrower, whether or not Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby
expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any
account whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against
Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the assets of
Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by
voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the
payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and
shall be first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender.
Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire
against Borrower or against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower;
provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose
of assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If
Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing
any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend
that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall be delivered to Lender.
Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor,
from time to time to execute and file financing statements and continuation
statements and to execute such other documents and to take such other actions as
Lender deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its
rights under this Guaranty.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Guaranty:
Amendments. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes
the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set
forth in this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty
shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the party or
parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Guaranty. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this
Guaranty, and Guarantor shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and
legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. Guarantor also shall pay all court costs
and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Guaranty.
Governing Law. This Guaranty will be governed by, construed and enforced in
accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Oregon. This
Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the State of Oregon.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully
understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity
to be advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the
Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol evidence is not
required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby
indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses, claims, damages, and
costs (including Lender's attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender
as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the warranties, representations
and agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or
Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be
deemed to have been used in the plural where the context and construction
so require; and where there is more than one Borrower named in this
Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the
words "Borrower" and "Guarantor" respectively shall mean all and any one or
more of them. The words "Guarantor," "Borrower," and "Lender" include the
heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees of each of them. If a court
finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be
enforced, that fact by itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty
will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of
the provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty may be
found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of Borrower or
Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or
similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers
of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers,
or other agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Loan
indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of
such powers shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given
in writing, and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be
effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile
(unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally
recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid,
directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty. All
revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective
upon delivery to Lender as provided in the section of this Guaranty
entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any party may change its address for
notices under this Guaranty by giving formal written notice to the other
parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's
address. For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep Lender informed at
all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or
required by law, if there is more than one Guarantor, any notice given by
Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a
waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Guarantor, shall
constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's
obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender
is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in
any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. Subject to any limitations stated in this Guaranty
or transfer of Guarantor's interest, this Guaranty shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns.

meanings when used in this Guaranty. Unless specifically stated to the contrary,

INDEBTEDNESS GUARANTEED. The Indebtedness is guaranteed and whether any such
Indebtedness is voluntarily or involuntarily incurred, due or not due, absolute
or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or undetermined; whether
Borrower may be liable individually or jointly with others, or primarily or
secondarily, or as guarantor or surety; whether recovery on the Indebtedness may
be or may become barred or unenforceable against Borrower for any reason
whatsoever; and whether the Indebtedness arises from transactions which may be
voidable on account of infancy, insanity, ultra ▇▇▇▇▇, or otherwise.
DURATION OF GUARANTY. This Guaranty will take effect when received by Lender
without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender, or any notice to Guarantor or
to Borrower, and will continue in full force until all Indebtedness incurred or
contracted before receipt by Lender of any notice of revocation shall have been
fully and finally paid and satisfied and all of Guarantor's other obligations
under this Guaranty shall have been performed in full. If Guarantor elects to
revoke this Guaranty, Guarantor may only do so in writing. Guarantor's written
notice of revocation must be mailed to Lender, by certified mail, at Lender's
address listed above or such other place as Lender may designate in writing.
Written revocation of this Guaranty will apply only to advances or new
Indebtedness created after actual receipt by Lender of Guarantor's written
revocation. For this purpose and without limitation, the term "new Indebtedness"
does not include Indebtedness which at the time of notice of revocation is
contingent, unliquidated, undetermined or not due and which later becomes
absolute, liquidated, determined or due. This Guaranty will continue to bind
Guarantor for all Indebtedness incurred by Borrower or committed by Lender prior
to receipt of Guarantor's written notice of revocation, including any
extensions, renewals, substitutions or modifications of the Indebtedness. All
renewals, extensions, substitutions, and modifications of the Indebtedness
granted after Guarantor's revocation, are contemplated under this Guaranty and,
specifically will not be considered to be new Indebtedness. This Guaranty shall
bind Guarantor's estate as to Indebtedness created both before and after
Guarantor's death or incapacity, regardless of Lender's actual notice of
Guarantor's death. Subject to the foregoing, Guarantor's executor or
administrator or other legal representative may terminate this Guaranty in the
same manner in which Guarantor might have terminated it and with the same
effect. Release of any other guarantor or termination of any other guaranty of
the Indebtedness shall not affect the liability of Guarantor under this
Guaranty. A revocation Lender receives from any one or more Guarantors shall not
affect the liability of any remaining Guarantors under this Guaranty. It is
anticipated that fluctuations may occur in the aggregate amount of Indebtedness
covered by this Guaranty, and Guarantor specifically acknowledges and agrees
that reductions in the amount of Indebtedness, even to zero dollars ($0.00),
prior to Guarantor's written revocation of this Guaranty shall not constitute a
termination of this Guaranty. This Guaranty is binding upon Guarantor and
Guarantor's heirs, successors and assigns so long as any of the guaranteed
Indebtedness remains unpaid and even though the Indebtedness guaranteed may from
time to time be zero dollars ($0.00).
GUARANTOR'S AUTHORIZATION TO LENDER. Guarantor authorizes Lender, either before
or after any revocation hereof, without notice or demand and without lessening
Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty, from time to time: (A) prior to
revocation as set forth above, to make one or more additional secured or
unsecured loans to Borrower, to lease equipment or other goods to Borrower, or
otherwise to extend additional credit to Borrower; (B) to alter, compromise,
renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change one or more times the time for
payment or other terms of the Indebtedness or any part of the Indebtedness,
including increases and decreases of the rate of interest on the Indebtedness;
extensions may be repeated and may be for longer than the original loan term;
(C) to take and hold security for the payment of this Guaranty or the
Indebtedness, and exchange, enforce, waive, subordinate, fail or decide not to
perfect, and release any such security, with or without the substitution of new
collateral; (D) to release, substitute, agree not to ▇▇▇, or deal with any one
or more of Borrower's sureties, endorsers, or other guarantors on any terms or
in any manner Lender may choose; (E) to determine how, when and what application
of payments and credits shall be made on the Indebtedness (F) to apply such
security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof, including without
limitation, any nonjudicial sale permitted by the terms of the controlling
security agreement or deed of trust, as Lender in its discretion may determine;
(G) to sell, transfer, assign or grant participations in all or any part of the
Indebtedness; and (H) to assign or transfer this Guaranty in whole or in part.
GUARANTOR'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Guarantor represents and warrants to
Lender that (A) no representations or agreements of any kind have been made to
Guarantor which would limit or qualify in any way the terms of this Guaranty;
(B) this Guaranty is executed at Borrower's request and not at the request of
Lender; (C) Guarantor has full power, right and authority to enter into this
Guaranty; (D) the provisions of this Guaranty do not conflict with or result in

written consent of Lender, sell, lease, assign, encumber, hypothecate, transfer,
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of Guarantor's assets, or any
interest therein; (F) upon Lender's request, Guarantor will provide to Lender
financial and credit information in form acceptable to Lender, and all such
financial information which currently has been, and all future financial
information which will be provided to Lender is and will be true and correct in
all material respects and fairly present Guarantor's financial condition as of
the dates the financial information is provided; (G) no material adverse change
has occurred in Guarantor's financial condition since the date of the most

litigation, claim, investigation, administrative proceeding or similar action
(including those for unpaid taxes) against Guarantor is pending or threatened;
(I) Lender has made no representation to Guarantor as to the creditworthiness of
Borrower; and (J) Guarantor has established adequate means of obtaining from
Borrower on a continuing basis information regarding Borrower's financial
condition. Guarantor agrees to keep adequately informed from such means of any
facts, events, or circumstances which might in any way affect Guarantor's risks
under this Guaranty, and Guarantor further agrees that, absent a request for
information, Lender shall have no obligation to disclose to Guarantor any
information or documents acquired by Lender in the course of its relationship
with Borrower.
GUARANTOR'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. Guarantor agrees to furnish Lender with the
following:
Annual Statements. As soon as available after the end of each fiscal year,
Guarantor's balance sheet and income statement for the year ended, compiled
by a certified public accountant satisfactory to Lender.

days after the applicable filing date for the tax reporting period ended,

Additional Requirements. Tax Returns to include all supplemental schedules

Guarantor's Financial Statement to be submitted with Tax Returns.
All financial reports required to be provided under this Guaranty shall be

GUARANTOR'S WAIVERS. Except as prohibited by applicable law, Guarantor waives
any right to require Lender (A) to continue lending money or to extend other
credit to Borrower; (B) to make any presentment, protest, demand, or notice of
any kind, including notice of any nonpayment of the Indebtedness or of any
nonpayment related to any collateral, or notice of any action or nonaction on
the part of Borrower, Lender, any surety, endorser, or other guarantor in
connection with the Indebtedness or in connection with the creation of new or
additional loans or obligations; (C) to resort for payment or to proceed
directly or at once against any person, including Borrower or any other
guarantor; (D) to proceed directly against or exhaust any collateral held by
Lender from Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person; (E) to give
notice of the terms, time, and place of any public or private sale of personal
property security held by Lender from Borrower or to comply with any other
applicable provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code; (F) to pursue any other
remedy within Lender's power; or (G) to commit any act or omission of any kind,
or at any time, with respect to any matter whatsoever.
Guarantor also waives any and all rights or defenses arising by reason of (A)
any "one action" or "anti-deficiency" law or any other law which may prevent
Lender from bringing any action, including a claim for deficiency, against
Guarantor, before or after Lender's commencement or completion of any
foreclosure action, either judicially or by exercise of a power of sale; (B) any
election of remedies by Lender which destroys or otherwise adversely affects
Guarantor's subrogation rights or Guarantor's rights to proceed against Borrower
for reimbursement, including without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor
may suffer by reason of any law limiting, qualifying, or discharging the
Indebtedness; (C) any disability or other defense of Borrower, of any other
guarantor, or of any other person, or by reason of the cessation of Borrower's
liability from any cause whatsoever, other than payment in full in legal tender,
of the Indebtedness; (D) any right to claim discharge of the Indebtedness on the
basis of unjustified impairment of any collateral for the Indebtedness; (E) any
statute of limitations, if at any time any action or suit brought by Lender
against Guarantor is commenced, there is outstanding Indebtedness of Borrower to
Lender which is not barred by any applicable statute of limitations; or (F) any
defenses given to guarantors at law or in equity other than actual payment and
performance of the Indebtedness. If payment is made by Borrower, whether
voluntarily or otherwise, or by any third party, on the Indebtedness and
thereafter Lender is forced to remit the amount of that payment to Borrower's
trustee in bankruptcy or to any similar person under any federal or state
bankruptcy law or law for the relief of debtors, the Indebtedness shall be
considered unpaid for the purpose of the enforcement of this Guaranty.
Guarantor further waives and agrees not to assert or claim at any time any
deductions to the amount guaranteed under this Guaranty for any claim of setoff,
counterclaim, counter demand, recoupment or similar right, whether such claim,
demand or right may be asserted by the Borrower, the Guarantor, or both.
GUARANTOR'S UNDERSTANDING WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS. Guarantor warrants and agrees
that each of the waivers set forth above is made with Guarantor's full knowledge
of its significance and consequences and that, under the circumstances, the
waivers are reasonable and not contrary to public policy or law. If any such
waiver is determined to be contrary to any applicable law or public policy, such
waiver shall be effective only to the extent permitted by law or public policy.
RIGHT OF SETOFF. See Addendum.
SUBORDINATION OF BORROWER'S DEBTS TO GUARANTOR. Guarantor agrees that the
Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender, whether now existing or hereafter created,
shall be superior to any claim that Guarantor may now have or hereafter acquire
against Borrower, whether or not Borrower becomes insolvent. Guarantor hereby
expressly subordinates any claim Guarantor may have against Borrower, upon any
account whatsoever, to any claim that Lender may now or hereafter have against
Borrower. In the event of insolvency and consequent liquidation of the assets of
Borrower, through bankruptcy, by an assignment for the benefit of creditors, by
voluntary liquidation, or otherwise, the assets of Borrower applicable to the
payment of the claims of both Lender and Guarantor shall be paid to Lender and
shall be first applied by Lender to the Indebtedness of Borrower to Lender.
Guarantor does hereby assign to Lender all claims which it may have or acquire
against Borrower or against any assignee or trustee in bankruptcy of Borrower;
provided however, that such assignment shall be effective only for the purpose
of assuring to Lender full payment in legal tender of the Indebtedness. If
Lender so requests, any notes or credit agreements now or hereafter evidencing
any debts or obligations of Borrower to Guarantor shall be marked with a legend
that the same are subject to this Guaranty and shall be delivered to Lender.
Guarantor agrees, and Lender is hereby authorized, in the name of Guarantor,
from time to time to execute and file financing statements and continuation
statements and to execute such other documents and to take such other actions as
Lender deems necessary or appropriate to perfect, preserve and enforce its
rights under this Guaranty.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS. The following miscellaneous provisions are a part of
this Guaranty:
Amendments. This Guaranty, together with any Related Documents, constitutes
the entire understanding and agreement of the parties as to the matters set
forth in this Guaranty. No alteration of or amendment to this Guaranty
shall be effective unless given in writing and signed by the party or
parties sought to be charged or bound by the alteration or amendment.
Attorneys' Fees; Expenses. Guarantor agrees to pay upon demand all of
Lender's costs and expenses, including Lender's attorneys' fees and
Lender's legal expenses, incurred in connection with the enforcement of
this Guaranty. Lender may hire or pay someone else to help enforce this
Guaranty, and Guarantor shall pay the costs and expenses of such
enforcement. Costs and expenses include Lender's attorneys' fees and legal
expenses whether or not there is a lawsuit, including attorneys' fees and
legal expenses for bankruptcy proceedings (including efforts to modify or
vacate any automatic stay or injunction), appeals, and any anticipated
post-judgment collection services. Guarantor also shall pay all court costs
and such additional fees as may be directed by the court.
Caption Headings. Caption headings in this Guaranty are for convenience
purposes only and are not to be used to interpret or define the provisions
of this Guaranty.
Governing Law. This Guaranty will be governed by, construed and enforced in
accordance with federal law and the laws of the State of Oregon. This
Guaranty has been accepted by Lender in the State of Oregon.
Integration. Guarantor further agrees that Guarantor has read and fully
understands the terms of this Guaranty; Guarantor has had the opportunity
to be advised by Guarantor's attorney with respect to this Guaranty; the
Guaranty fully reflects Guarantor's intentions and parol evidence is not
required to interpret the terms of this Guaranty. Guarantor hereby
indemnifies and holds Lender harmless from all losses, claims, damages, and
costs (including Lender's attorneys' fees) suffered or incurred by Lender
as a result of any breach by Guarantor of the warranties, representations
and agreements of this paragraph.
Interpretation. In all cases where there is more than one Borrower or
Guarantor, then all words used in this Guaranty in the singular shall be
deemed to have been used in the plural where the context and construction
so require; and where there is more than one Borrower named in this
Guaranty or when this Guaranty is executed by more than one Guarantor, the
words "Borrower" and "Guarantor" respectively shall mean all and any one or
more of them. The words "Guarantor," "Borrower," and "Lender" include the
heirs, successors, assigns, and transferees of each of them. If a court
finds that any provision of this Guaranty is not valid or should not be
enforced, that fact by itself will not mean that the rest of this Guaranty
will not be valid or enforced. Therefore, a court will enforce the rest of
the provisions of this Guaranty even if a provision of this Guaranty may be
found to be invalid or unenforceable. If any one or more of Borrower or
Guarantor are corporations, partnerships, limited liability companies, or
similar entities, it is not necessary for Lender to inquire into the powers
of Borrower or Guarantor or of the officers, directors, partners, managers,
or other agents acting or purporting to act on their behalf, and any Loan
indebtedness made or created in reliance upon the professed exercise of
such powers shall be guaranteed under this Guaranty.
Notices. Any notice required to be given under this Guaranty shall be given
in writing, and, except for revocation notices by Guarantor, shall be
effective when actually delivered, when actually received by telefacsimile
(unless otherwise required by law), when deposited with a nationally
recognized overnight courier, or, if mailed, when deposited in the United
States mail, as first class, certified or registered mail postage prepaid,
directed to the addresses shown near the beginning of this Guaranty. All
revocation notices by Guarantor shall be in writing and shall be effective
upon delivery to Lender as provided in the section of this Guaranty
entitled "DURATION OF GUARANTY." Any party may change its address for
notices under this Guaranty by giving formal written notice to the other
parties, specifying that the purpose of the notice is to change the party's
address. For notice purposes, Guarantor agrees to keep Lender informed at
all times of Guarantor's current address. Unless otherwise provided or
required by law, if there is more than one Guarantor, any notice given by
Lender to any Guarantor is deemed to be notice given to all Guarantors.
No Waiver by Lender. Lender shall not be deemed to have waived any rights
under this Guaranty unless such waiver is given in writing and signed by
Lender. No delay or omission on the part of Lender in exercising any right
shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right. A waiver by
Lender of a provision of this Guaranty shall not prejudice or constitute a
waiver of Lender's right otherwise to demand strict compliance with that
provision or any other provision of this Guaranty. No prior waiver by
Lender, nor any course of dealing between Lender and Guarantor, shall
constitute a waiver of any of Lender's rights or of any of Guarantor's
obligations as to any future transactions. Whenever the consent of Lender
is required under this Guaranty, the granting of such consent by Lender in
any instance shall not constitute continuing consent to subsequent
instances where such consent is required and in all cases such consent may
be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of Lender.
Successors and Assigns. Subject to any limitations stated in this Guaranty
or transfer of Guarantor's interest, this Guaranty shall be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and assigns.

meanings when used in this Guaranty. Unless specifically stated to the contrary,
all references to dollar amounts shall mean amounts in lawful money of the

behalf of the Partnership represent and certify to Lender that:
THE PARTNERSHIP'S EXISTENCE. The complete and correct name of the Partnership is
MacTarnahan Limited Partnership ("Partnership"). The Partnership is a limited
partnership which is, and at all times shall be, formed under and by virtue of
the laws of the State of Oregon. The Partnership is duly authorized to transact
business in all other states in which the Partnership is doing business, having
obtained all necessary filings, governmental licenses and approvals for each
state in which the Partnership is doing business. Specifically, the Partnership
is, and at all times shall be, duly qualified as a foreign limited partnership
in all states in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse
effect on its business or financial condition. The Partnership has the full
power and authority to own its properties and to transact the business in which
it is presently engaged or presently proposes to engage. The Partnership
maintains an office at ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇. Unless the
Partnership has designated otherwise in writing, the principal office is the
office at which the Partnership keeps its books and records. The Partnership
will notify Lender prior to any change in the location of the Partnership's
principal office address or any change in the Partnership's name. The
Partnership shall do all things necessary to preserve and to keep in full force
and effect its existence, rights and privileges, and shall comply with all
regulations, rules, ordinances, statutes, orders and decrees of any governmental
or quasi-governmental authority or court applicable to the Partnership and the
Partnership's business activities.
AUTHORIZATIONS ADOPTED. At a meeting of the partners of the Partnership, duly
called and held on September 14, 2001, or by other duly authorized action in
lieu of a meeting, the agreements and authorizations set forth in this
Authorization were adopted.

agreements of any nature with Lender, and those agreements will bind the
Partnership. Specifically, but without limitation, the authorized entity is
authorized, empowered, and directed to do the following for and on behalf of the
Partnership:
Guaranty. To guarantee or act as surety for loans or other financial
accommodations to Borrower from Lender on such guarantee or surety terms as
may be agreed upon between the partner of the Partnership and Lender and in
such sum or sums of money as in its judgment should be guaranteed or
assured, not exceeding, however, at any one time the amount of One Hundred

otherwise encumber and deliver to Lender any property now or hereafter

hypothecated or encumbered at the time such loans are obtained or such
indebtedness is incurred, or at any other time or times, and may be either
in addition to or in lieu of any property theretofore mortgaged, pledged,

trade acceptances, promissory notes, or other evidences of indebtedness

proceeds to be credited to the Partnership's account with Lender, or to
cause such other disposition of the proceeds derived therefrom as it may
deem advisable.

liable individually beyond its interest in the Partnership plus any liability
created under applicable law or under any other agreements with Lender (such as

agreements with Lender, including the borrowing of monies, do not conflict with,
result in a violation of, or constitute a default under any agreement or other
instrument with any limited partner of the Partnership; and we agree to
indemnify and hold Lender harmless from all claims, costs and expenses relating
in any way to any such conflict, violation or default.
