Learn tips and practical solutions to help you understand intercreditor agreements and the issues that arise.
Intercreditor agreements are a common feature of financing transactions ranging from middle market acquisition financings to leveraged recapitalizations to large cap multi-tranche financings. Whether you are a bank or hedge fund making a senior loan, a mezzanine fund or insurance company making a subordinated loan, or a seller taking back a note as part of the sale of your business, you will need to understand intercreditor agreements and the issues that arise in all of them. This topic will take an in-depth look at intercreditor agreements and will dig into both the high-level issues that all senior and junior creditors must be familiar with and the more subtle issues that can make a big difference at crunch time. Starting with an overview of intercreditor fundamentals, we will cover the key intercreditor issues from both the senior lender’s and junior lender’s perspective and offer drafting tips and practical solutions to help understand how to resolve those issues in typical intercreditor contexts. We will also look at the unique issues that arise under different credit structures that have become more common in the marketplace and how they can impact the negotiations between different creditors. You will come out with a deeper knowledge of intercreditor agreements and how to navigate and negotiate the issues more efficiently.
