Explanation:
This endorsement is designed for loan policies for commercial transactions in situations where the loan agreement includes a participation interest. The participation interest is based on the equity in the Title, increase in value of the Title, or cash flow as defined in the loan documents.
This endorsement insures as of Date of Policy against loss or damage by reason of (a) the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien of the Insured Mortgage resulting from the provisions of the Insured Mortgage or Loan Documents containing a participation interest; (b) lack of priority of the lien of the Insured Mortgage at Date of Policy, securing (i) the unpaid principal balance of the loan and (ii) the interest on the loan, including the participation interest, if any, which lack of priority is caused by the provisions in the Loan Documents for payment or allocation to the Insured of any participation interest.
This endorsement contains exclusions from coverage: usury; unconscionability; or any consumer credit protection or truth-in-lending law; disputes over the amount of the Participation Interest; the effects of mortgage recording or similar intangible taxes on the validity or enforceability of the Insured Mortgage; or mechanic’s liens.
