Collateral and Guaranty Matters Clause Samples
The 'Collateral and Guaranty Matters' clause defines the requirements and obligations related to assets pledged as security (collateral) and the responsibilities of guarantors in a contractual agreement. It typically outlines what assets must be provided as collateral, the conditions under which collateral can be used or released, and the rights and duties of any third-party guarantors who promise to fulfill obligations if the primary party defaults. This clause ensures that lenders or counterparties have recourse to specific assets or guarantees, thereby reducing their risk and providing assurance that obligations will be met even if the primary party fails to perform.
