Mark Guterman, White Plains, for appellant.

Gallet Dreyer & Berkey LLP, New York (Michelle P. Quinn of counsel), for respondent.

Judgment, Supreme Court, New York County (Louis B. York, J.), entered February 13, 2014, awarding plaintiff the total sum of $177,895.85 based on a guarantee undertaken by defendant as inducement for a lease, unanimously affirmed, with costs.

The IAS court correctly determined that defendant was absolutely liable under the terms of the lease guarantee (see e.g. Republic Natl. Bank of N.Y. v Haddad, 121 AD2d 986 [1986]).

We have considered the remaining arguments and find them unavailing. Concur—Tom, J.P., Andrias, Saxe, DeGrasse and Kapnick, JJ.
