In the context of 'adequate protection' for a primed secured lender, what does the term 'indubitable equivalent' imply?

  1. The DIP financing interest rate is contractually fixed to exactly match the pre-petition facility's rate.
  2. The lender must receive an immediate cash payment exactly equal to the full par value of its secured claim amount.
  3. The protection provided must be so robust that there is no reasonable doubt the lender's economic position is preserved.
  4. The lender instead receives equity in the reorganized parent company deemed fully 'equivalent' in value to their original bond position.
