Preventing an inter-lender war following a borrower default
Article Abstract:
Inter-lender disputes in loan participation agreements can be prevented by resolving drafting recommendations on the Modification clause and Remedies clause of the transaction. The lender and the participants of the loan agreement should evaluate the Remedies clause to determine its flexibility for loan restructurings and other modifications to the loan security document. The continuation of the rights of the participant after a post-default and the agreement on waivers between the lender and the borrower should be stated in the Remedies clause.
