Pledge Agreement | Practical Law
This is a standard form of pledge agreement to be used in connection with a syndicated loan agreement. It is intended to create a security interest over equity interests and promissory notes owned by the grantors. The grantors are usually the borrower, its parent and its subsidiaries. The grantors typically enter into the pledge agreement with a collateral agent, which is acting on behalf of lenders under a syndicated loan agreement. This form can also be used for one lender.
