Nonrecourse Loans

Bad Boy Carve-Outs
Bad Boy Carve-Outs refer to provisions in nonrecourse loans which hold the borrower or guarantor liable for the loan under specific circumstances. These carve-outs include misappropriation of funds, environmental violations, waste, and voluntary bankruptcy.
Carve Out
A provision in an agreement that removes or excludes a particular portion of the property or obligations. Carve-outs can pertain to items in sales agreements, mortgages, or leases, potentially subjecting them to new terms or entirely exempting them from certain existing terms.
Exculpatory Clause
An exculpatory clause is a provision in a mortgage allowing the borrower to surrender the property to the lender without personal liability for the loan. This means the borrower can walk away from the property if unable to meet the mortgage obligations, without other personal assets being pursued for the debt.
