If a personal guarantee is included in the lease agreement, the tenant will be  held personally responsible  for  monies  owed  when  their  company  is  insolvent.  However,  personal guarantees  do  not  necessarily  require  a  determination  of  insolvency  in  order  to  obligate  a tenant. Also,  there  are  issues  for  a  guarantor  and  a  covenantor  regarding  when  liability  accrues. Sometimes the guarantor is made a party to the lease (as one of the tenants), as well.
