Limitation on Payments and Modification of Subordinated Indebtedness Clause Samples

The "Limitation on Payments and Modification of Subordinated Indebtedness" clause restricts a borrower’s ability to make payments on, or alter the terms of, any subordinated debt. Typically, this means the borrower cannot pay interest or principal on subordinated loans, or amend their terms, without the prior consent of the senior lender. For example, the borrower may be prohibited from accelerating payments or increasing interest rates on subordinated notes. This clause ensures that the senior lender’s interests are protected by preventing the borrower from prioritizing subordinated creditors or changing the risk profile of the subordinated debt, thereby maintaining the agreed-upon order of repayment and reducing the risk of default for the senior lender.
Limitation on Payments and Modification of Subordinated Indebtedness. Without the prior written consent of Lender, the Borrower shall not amend, modify, waive or supplement (or permit the modification, amendment, waiver or supplement of) any of the terms or provisions of any Subordinated Indebtedness in any respect.
