Reduction of Secured Amount Clause Samples

The Reduction of Secured Amount clause defines the process by which the total amount secured under an agreement can be decreased over time or upon the occurrence of certain events. Typically, this clause outlines specific conditions or milestones—such as partial repayments, asset releases, or satisfaction of obligations—that trigger a reduction in the secured amount. Its core practical function is to ensure that the security provided is proportionate to the outstanding obligations, thereby preventing over-collateralization and aligning the interests of both parties as the underlying debt or obligation is reduced.
