Additional Subsidiary Guarantors Clause Samples
The "Additional Subsidiary Guarantors" clause requires certain subsidiaries of a borrower to become guarantors under a loan or credit agreement. In practice, this means that if a company acquires or forms new subsidiaries, or if existing subsidiaries meet specified criteria (such as exceeding a financial threshold), those subsidiaries must formally agree to guarantee the borrower's obligations. This clause ensures that lenders have recourse to a broader group of entities within the corporate structure, thereby strengthening the overall credit support and reducing the lender's risk if the primary borrower defaults.
