Defaulting Lenders Clause Samples
The Defaulting Lenders clause defines the rights and remedies available when a lender in a syndicated loan fails to meet its funding or other obligations under the loan agreement. In practice, this clause typically allows the other lenders or the borrower to withhold payments, reallocate commitments, or replace the defaulting lender to ensure the loan facility continues to function smoothly. Its core purpose is to protect the interests of the borrower and non-defaulting lenders by minimizing disruption and risk caused by a lender's failure to perform.
