Personal guarantee of company debt

This personal guarantee is the equivalent of the "PG" your bank might ask you to sign when storm clouds gather around your company. It is for use in any situation requiring an individual to guarantee the debt of a company, but most usually when the guarantor is a director. Applicable to any situation where money is owed. Suitable for use by lender or guarantor as it provides a wide range of options to produce a final version with high or very high level of lender security.

About this document

This is a professionally drawn personal guarantee agreement for a lender to put to a company director as a condition of either increased lending or forbearance in enforcement of existing loan conditions. First, it identifies an original loan agreement between the lender and the company, then ties the guarantor to it, to “stand in the shoes” of the company in the event that it was unable to make repayment when due.

The agreement provides many options primarily to strengthen the position of the lender. Some could be deleted so as to provide a softer agreement for the guarantor if required.

The law in this document

There is no modern statutory law relating to guarantees. This document is based on contract common law.

Agreement features and contents

  • The key benefit of using this document over adding a guarantee paragraph to the original contract is the simplicity of use.
  • There is no need to edit and agree the original contract. That means less room for making a mistake and invalidating some provision of it.
  • Provides heavyweight protection for the lender.
  • The document highlights the continuing liability of the guarantor (usually the director who is personally liable for the company debt).

    Hendrik J Pfaff, CFA, Stellenbosch, South Africa

  • "I have found the product exactly what I wanted and the notes helpful - as well as it being easy to locate, buy and download. There should be a better way of making your product more widely known. I have recently had experience of a tailor-made lease and this left a lot to be desired - whereas your product is well researched and ticks all the boxes."
