Waiving goodbye to termination rights in default scenario negotiations
© Copyright LexisNexis 2024. All rights reserved.
A key weapon in the lender’s arsenal is the default provisions contained in a loan agreement and the actions that the lender may take upon the occurrence of an event of default. In Lombard North Central plc v European Skyjets Limited [2022] EWHC 728 (QB), Mr Justice Foxton considered whether certain events of default had occurred and whether Lombard had validly terminated the loan agreement so as to enable it to enforce its security, namely Skyjets’ aircraft. The judge’s legal analysis provides a useful recap of the legal principles. This article focusses on the doctrine of waiver by election and some practical considerations for lenders in a default scenario.
