Indenture

What's the definition?
(1) the formal agreement between a group of bondholders and the bond issuer containing terms of the debt. (2) a deed, written contract, or sealed agreement. The term derives from an old practice of actually indenting the deed by cutting or tearing it in half with a jagged or indented edge so that the two parts could subsequently by matched by the grantor and the grantee.
