Intercreditor Lien Priority

Overview

CaseMark's Intercreditor Lien Priority skill automates the drafting of complex first lien/second lien intercreditor agreements that govern shared collateral, remedies, and payment rights. It transforms deal term sheets and existing credit documents into comprehensive, deal-ready agreements with fully customizable standstill, waterfall, and bankruptcy provisions.

Drafting intercreditor agreements is one of the most complex tasks in leveraged finance, requiring meticulous coordination of lien priority, standstill mechanics, payment waterfalls, and bankruptcy provisions across multiple source documents. Manual drafting is time-intensive, error-prone, and often results in missed clauses or inconsistent terms that create costly negotiation delays.

CaseMark automates intercreditor agreement drafting by extracting deal terms from your term sheet and credit documents, populating a structured key elections framework, and generating a comprehensive agreement covering all critical articles. The built-in checklist ensures no essential provision is omitted, delivering a polished first draft ready for review and negotiation.

  1. 1. Upload your deal term sheet and existing credit/security documents

  2. 2. AI extracts party roles, collateral scope, standstill terms, and key elections

  3. 3. Review and customize the drafted intercreditor agreement with deal-specific provisions

  4. 4. Export the finalized agreement in your preferred format (DOCX, PDF)

Questions

What types of intercreditor agreements can this skill draft?

CaseMark drafts first lien/second lien intercreditor agreements governing shared collateral, including standstill provisions, enforcement controls, payment waterfalls, turnover obligations, and bankruptcy-related provisions under 11 U.S.C. § 510(a).

Can I customize the standstill period and enforcement triggers?

Absolutely. CaseMark presents a key elections table where you specify standstill triggers, duration, permitted payments to second lien holders, and post-standstill enforcement rights. Every election is fully configurable to match your deal terms.

Does the output address bankruptcy and insolvency scenarios?

Yes. CaseMark generates comprehensive bankruptcy provisions covering DIP financing consent, cash collateral usage, Section 363 sale procedures, plan voting restrictions, and adequate protection waivers—all critical for intercreditor governance in distressed scenarios.

How does CaseMark ensure no critical clauses are missing?

CaseMark runs a built-in required-clauses checklist that verifies inclusion of absolute lien priority, subordination continuity, turnover obligations, anti-amendment protections, and other essential provisions before the draft is finalized.

Can this handle refinancing or amendment scenarios?

Yes. CaseMark supports drafting for new financings, refinancings, and intercreditor renegotiations. The skill accounts for discharge definitions, replacement lien provisions, and restrictions on amendments to second lien documents.

What governing law options are supported?

CaseMark defaults to the most common U.S. governing law elections—New York and Delaware—but you can specify any U.S. jurisdiction. The miscellaneous provisions include jurisdiction, jury waiver, and notice mechanics tailored to your selection.
