North Dakota Lease Subordination Agreement
What this document covers
The Lease Subordination Agreement is a legal document that ensures a lienholder's rights are subordinate to an oil, gas, or mineral lease. This agreement releases the leasehold estate from prior liens established by a mortgage or deed of trust. By subordinating these liens, the lienholder allows a new loan secured by the property to take priority, thus providing clear terms for the parties involved. This form differs from regular lease agreements by specifically addressing the lienholderâs rights and how they relate to leases on mineral rights.
