    Usually, when this phrase is uttered, it is accompanied by a list of conditiosn that must be fulfilled for the loan to be fully accepted. Possible examples could be-
    *subject to satisfactory valuation of an asset being pledged in collateral for the loan
    * borrower being able to confirm they have raised the rest of the funds elsewhere for the transaction
    * another funder providing funds (e.g. a grant application)
    * Sunderland avoiding relegation from the Premiership (OK that was a joke ;-))))
