Senior Secured Leverage Ratio Clause Samples
The Senior Secured Leverage Ratio clause sets a financial covenant that limits the amount of senior secured debt a borrower can have relative to a defined measure of earnings, typically EBITDA. In practice, this ratio is calculated by dividing the borrower’s outstanding senior secured debt by its EBITDA, and the result must not exceed a specified threshold during the term of the agreement. This clause is designed to ensure that the borrower maintains a manageable level of secured debt, thereby protecting lenders by reducing the risk of over-leverage and potential default.
