expressly accepting primary and personal {several} liability


Explanation:
Let's have some more surrounding context. Usually, the benefit of the plea is excluded - hence a more natural English wording would make the guarantor take the full undivided i.e. several and not joint rap.





Example sentence(s):
  • Director's Personal Liability for Company Debts ... may be ordered by the Court to accept personal liability to contribute towards the company's debts. ...
