Priority Lien Status Clause Examples

The Priority Lien Status clause establishes the lender’s right to have its lien take precedence over other claims or encumbrances on the collateral. In practice, this means that if the borrower defaults and the collateral is sold, the lender with priority lien status will be paid before other creditors whose liens are subordinate. This clause is essential for protecting the lender’s interests by ensuring they have the first claim to the collateral’s value, thereby reducing the risk of loss in the event of borrower default.
