Loan Agreement (Lender)

Experience the mode.law Difference in Legal Documents

What sets mode.law documents apart from traditional legal templates? Our approach focuses on a tailored, interactive experience, similar to a lawyer’s consultation. We ask the same questions a lawyer would during an initial interview, using conditional logic to add or remove text based on your answers. This results in a highly relevant first draft, requiring minimal revisions and potentially no additional tailoring at all!

Editable and Dynamic Microsoft Word Documents

Unlike many document automation services, mode.law generates Microsoft Word documents instead of PDFs. This ensures complete editability and maintains cross-references, allowing easy updates. Our documents can reference other clauses within the same document, ensuring a robust legal drafting tool remains available. Many automation services avoid cross-references for technical reasons, but mode.law embraces them for added efficiency and precision.

Secure Your Business Lending with a Comprehensive Loan Agreement

A Loan Agreement (Lender) is crucial for businesses providing loans to other parties. This legally binding contract clarifies loan terms and conditions, ensuring a clear understanding between lender and borrower. With a well-drafted Loan Agreement, you can minimise potential risks, protect your business interests, and foster successful lending relationships.

Key Components of an Effective Loan Agreement

Our Loan Agreement (Lender) template covers essential aspects of a lending arrangement, providing a solid foundation for your business’s lending transactions. These components include:

Loan term and interest rate: Define the duration of the loan and the applicable interest rate to create a transparent repayment plan.
Default interest and pre-payment: Establish procedures for handling default interest and early loan repayments.
Events of default: Specify events that may trigger a default and the associated consequences.
Repayment terms: Outline the repayment schedule and methods, ensuring both parties agree on the loan repayment process.
Restrictions and security provisions: Set forth any restrictions on the borrower’s actions and detail any security provided for the loan.

This Loan Agreement is also suitable for documenting lending arrangements with associates of your company in support of a Research and Development Tax Incentive claim.

Customize Your Loan Agreement to Fit Your Needs

While our Loan Agreement (Lender) template offers a strong foundation for your lending transactions, it’s crucial to tailor the document to your specific commercial requirements and circumstances. We recommend seeking legal advice to ensure the agreement aligns with your business objectives and complies with applicable laws and regulations.

When to Talk to a Lawyer or Get a Quote

We recommend consulting a lawyer (such as Attune Legal) if you need help tailoring this agreement to your business needs. This will ensure that it reflects what you have negotiated with your borrower, while protecting your interests and complying with the law.

Tailoring

Tailoring is when a lawyer customizes an automated legal document to meet your specific needs. This process starts with a consultation, after which you will complete a form to generate the initial draft of the document (if you haven’t already generated a DIY legal document). The lawyer will amend the document in line with what was discussed during the consultation, then send it to you for review. Once all reviews are complete the document will be finalised for use, or eSigning (if applicable).

Reviews

A review is when you send feedback to the lawyer on a tailored document, and they make changes or respond to your comments. Feedback should be made by commenting directly within the document. Tailoring includes two reviews as standard. This is usually more than sufficient. Additional reviews may be charged separately if needed, so it is recommend you thoroughly check and comment on the document before returning it to the lawyer.

eSigning

eSigning is when a document is executed by collecting an electronic signature from a party to make it legally binding, instead of printing and signing on paper. This is achieved by using a third-party service such as HelloSign that will send a link to the email of each party required to sign the document. The recipient will then follow the link and sign the document using their computer or mobile device. The system will record when they viewed and signed the document as well as from which IP Address. We recommend all our documents be signed electronically, and will manage the process for each tailored document with which eSigning is included.

Document Automation

Mode.law offers document automation services in addition to our tailoring services. If a tailored document is intended to be used repeatedly, mode.law can create a reusable form within your mode.law account. The form can be used to generate new documents based on your tailored template. The form will complete the main variable information that will differ such as (for example) new counter parties, purchase orders or statements of work. This speeds up your business processes, and makes things efficient to tailor when you need a few additional changes. Fees for document automation can be quoted during a consultation.
