Special situations
- Future, revolving, renewal, replacement, cap, extension, modification, waiver, revocation, collateral, multiple-guarantor, and financial-reporting terms appear only when selected.
- Guarantee-of-payment and guarantee-of-collection paths use distinct creditor-action prerequisites.
- Waivers are individually selected and described; the form does not automatically import a blanket waiver list.
- Revocation separates later obligations from protected pre-cutoff obligations, while final release separately addresses satisfaction, contingent items, and avoided-payment reinstatement.
Frequently asked questions
How is this broader than the $5.99 Guarantee Agreement?
The basic form is streamlined around one identified underlying agreement. This product separately coordinates future and revolving categories, detailed cap components, payment or collection character, optional changes and waivers, cutoff mechanics, multiple guarantors, collateral, recoveries, reinstatement, and five schedules.
Is liability automatically unlimited?
No. The workflow records whether a cap applies and how principal, interest, fees, enforcement costs, credits, recoveries, and replenishment interact with it.
What is the difference between payment and collection?
The selected character controls whether Creditor may demand after the stated default or must first complete the specified collection steps.
Are all common guarantee waivers automatic?
No. Each waiver must be selected, described, and reproduced; unselected and nonwaivable rights remain preserved.
Does revocation erase existing liability?
Only if the completed terms expressly provide that result. The revocation schedule separates future-obligation cutoff, pre-cutoff survival, and final release.
