(d) The holders of the Senior Debt are hereby authorized to demand specific performance of this Agreement at any time when the Subordinated Creditor shall have failed to comply with any of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Subordinated Creditor whether or not any Loan Party shall have complied with any of the provisions hereof applicable to such Loan Party, and the Subordinated Creditor hereby irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law which might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance.
