The Guarantee Agreement serves as a critical risk mitigation tool in various commercial and financial transactions under U.S. law. This document is typically used when a creditor requires additional security beyond the primary debtor's promise to pay or perform. The agreement specifies the guaranteed obligations, the conditions under which the guarantee can be called upon, and any limitations on the guarantor's liability. The document must comply with both federal regulations and state-specific requirements, particularly regarding enforceability and the Statute of Frauds. A well-drafted Guarantee Agreement is essential for protecting the creditor's interests while clearly defining the guarantor's obligations.
