Anatomy and Negotiation of the Good Guy-Bad Guy Guaranty

 
“History of a Limited Good Guy/Bad Guy Guaranty - What is a limited “Good Guy/Bad Guy Guaranty” and how does it differ from the standard Guaranty of Payment and Performance or Guaranty of Collection – Non-standard use of terms, definitions or agreement on uniform attributes in the United States consist of the following general topics:

1. Originally introduced in the late 1970s because of increased costs and expenses associated with tenants holding over in space after default and terminations while not paying or performing under the Lease. The instrument was given by the controlling member or members (shareholders) of the tenant entity and substituted with new controlling members in the event of assignment or change in ownership of the tenant entity. The intent was to make the tenant remove from the premises by exerting financial pain on the controlling decision maker(s) with the power to effect such removal action.

2. Eviction or disposes recovery of space could in many jurisdictions take up to 2 years to evict a defaulting tenant while being required by common or statutory laws to provide services and electricity to the premises.”
