Subordination by Agreement

The preceding sections deal elaborately with questions of priority.  This section makes it entirely clear that a person entitled to priority may effectively agree to subordinate its claim.   Only the person entitled to priority may make such an agreement:  a person's rights cannot be adversely affected by an agreement to which the person is not a party.
