This means that the new loan gets to jump in front of any mezzanine financing and any senior mortgages in the debt stack. It is important to understand that DIP financing is used to provide new operating capital and is not intended to pay off any current debt or obligation associated with the sponsor or entity.

DIP financing is unique from other financing methods in that it usually has priority over existing debt, equity and other claims. DIP financing is considered attractive because it is done only under order of the Bankruptcy Court, which is empowered by the Bankruptcy Code. Debtor-in-Possession financing can also provide corporate bankruptcy financing to engage in a prepackaged business bankruptcy where the asset based lender providing DIP financing supplies the funds to work out a settlement with creditors up front, in order to walk into corporate bankruptcy court with this pre-packed settlement.
Asset based lending sources provide Debtor-In-Possession financing following the filing of either a voluntary or involuntary corporate bankruptcy proceeding utilizes the same fundamental asset valuation approach to provide the loan as it would utilize for a company not in business bankruptcy.
The availability of DIP financing may depend on the perceived viability of the company
during the proceeding and on its ability to successfully complete a Plan of Reorganization (POR). The Plan of Reorganization must specify how the debtor intends to pay the creditors and Debtor-in-Possession financing is a means toward that end.
Potential Applications:
Bankruptcy Financing: Voluntary or Involuntary Bankruptcy
