Line-Down Condition Clause Samples

A Line-Down Condition clause defines the circumstances under which a lender may reduce or terminate a borrower's access to a credit line, typically due to changes in the lender's own funding sources or credit facilities. In practice, this clause allows the lender to decrease the amount available to the borrower if the lender's own ability to fund the loan is impaired, such as if its own credit lines are reduced or withdrawn by its financiers. The core function of this clause is to protect the lender from being obligated to lend funds it cannot access, thereby allocating risk associated with upstream funding disruptions.
