The clause was to be understood as a cumulative debt assumption, not a suretyship.

The wording stated that the signatories were personally obliged to perform the contract in addition to acting as corporate organs. Combined with the appellant's own, recognizable interest in the stock acquisition, the clause did not describe an uneigennützige security arrangement.
