Norwegian term or phrase: stå tilbake overfor
Dersom annet ikke er avtalt skriftlig i/for det enkelte tilfelle/krav erklærer Garantisten å ville stå tilbake ovenfor XXXX med ethvert krav som Garantisten måtte ha mot Låntaker, så lenge XXXX ikke har oppnådd full dekning for alle sine krav under Avtalen.

be subordinate to
Explanation:
The first link pairs "stå tilbake for" with "yield precedence to" in the discussion of Chapter 14. However, that strikes me as slightly archaic. I think my suggestion enjoys wider currency, as exemplified in the Google results for "agrees to be subordinate to" at the second link.
