2.6 Subordination. All indebtedness now or hereafter owing by any Borrower to Guarantor for borrowed money or otherwise is hereby subordinated to the payment of the Obligations, and, following and during the continuance of any Event of Default hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, Guarantor shall not accept payment of all or any portion of such subordinated indebtedness until satisfaction in full of the Obligations.

3.2 Election of Remedies. If Administrative Agent may, under applicable law, proceed to realize benefits under any of the Loan Documents giving Administrative Agent a lien upon any collateral owned by Borrowers or any other Borrower Party, either by judicial foreclosure or by non-judicial sale or enforcement, Administrative Agent may, at its sole option, determine which of such remedies or rights it may pursue without affecting any of Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies under this Guaranty. If, in the exercise of any of Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies against Borrowers, or Guarantor or any other Person liable with respect to the Obligations, Administrative Agent shall forfeit any of the rights or remedies available to Administrative Agent, including any right to enter a deficiency judgment against Borrowers, whether because of any applicable laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or the like, Guarantor hereby consents to such action by Administrative Agent, as applicable, and waives any claim or defense based upon such action, even if such action by Administrative Agent shall result in a full or partial loss of any rights of subrogation which Guarantor might otherwise have had but for such action by Administrative Agent. Any election of remedies which results in the denial or impairment of the right of Administrative Agent to seek a deficiency judgment against Borrowers shall not impair Guarantor’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, and Guarantor hereby irrevocably waives any defense based upon an election of remedies made by Administrative Agent or any other election afforded to Administrative Agent pursuant to applicable law, including, without limitation, (a) any election to proceed by judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure or by Uniform Commercial Code sale or by deed or assignment in lieu thereof, or any election of remedies which destroys or otherwise impairs the subrogation rights of the Guarantor or the rights of the Guarantor to proceed against Borrowers or any other Person for reimbursement, or both, (b) the waiver by Administrative Agent or any Secured Party, either by action or inaction of Administrative Agent or any Secured Party or by operation of law, of a deficiency judgment against Borrowers, and (c) any election pursuant to an Insolvency Proceeding.

3.4 Demands and Notices. Guarantor irrevocably waives all presentments, demands for performance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor, notice of acceleration to Borrowers, any other Person or any other party with respect to the Loan or the Guaranteed Obligations, notices of acceptance of this Guaranty and of the existence, creation or incurring of new or additional Obligations, notices of defaults by Borrowers or any other Person liable for all or any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations and demands and notices of every kind that may be required to be given by any statute or rule or law.
