Other Security; Marshaling Clause Samples
The 'Other Security; Marshaling' clause defines how a lender may use or prioritize various forms of collateral or security interests provided by a borrower. In practice, this clause allows the lender to choose the order in which different assets or securities are applied to satisfy a debt, and it may also address the lender's right to avoid being restricted by the principle of marshaling, which would otherwise require equitable distribution among creditors. Its core function is to give the lender flexibility and control over the enforcement of security interests, thereby reducing the risk of complications or delays in debt recovery.
