Introduction
As we already have known, according to Law Number 4 of 1996 on Mortgage of Land along with Properties Related to the Land (“Law 4/96”), the granting of mortgage is conducted by making the Deed of Granting of Mortgage (“Deed”) by the Land Conveyancing Officer (“Pejabat Pembuat Akta Tanah/PPAT”) in accordance with the prevailing laws and regulations. It is also regulated in Law 4/96, particularly in Article 11 paragraph (2) that the Deed may stipulate some covenants, considering the effort to keep the good value of the mortgage object, especially at the time of the execution. The covenants are facultative, means that it has no effect to the validity of the Deed. The parties concerned are free to determine whether or not they will stipulate the covenants in the Deed. However, in the event that the parties concerned are stipulating the covenant in the Deed and registering the Deed at the land office, such covenants shall be binding to the third party.
Covenants Stipulated in the Deed
According to Article 11 paragraph (2) of Law 4/96, the covenants that may be stipulated in the Deed are as follows: [More…]
covenant which is limiting the competency of the mortgage provider to rent out the mortgage object and/or determine or change the lease term and/or receive the rent money in advance, unless with the prior written approval of the mortgage holder;
covenant which is limiting the authority of the mortgage provider to change the form or structure of the mortgage object, unless with the prior written approval of the mortgage holder;

covenant that the first mortgage holder has the right to sell, on its own authority (power), the mortgage object if the debtor is in default;

covenant that the mortgage provider will vacate the mortgage object at the time of execution;

Furthermore, Article 12 of Law 4/96 clearly expresses that if there is covenant which is giving the authority to the mortgage holder to own the mortgage object if the debtor is in default, such covenant is null and void. Such provision is stipulated in order to protect the interests of the debtors and other mortgage providers, especially if the value of the mortgage object exceeds the amount of the debt that is being collateralized.

Background
Referring to Law Number 4 of 1996 on Mortgage of Land along with Properties Related to the Land (“Law 4/96”), particularly Article 10 paragraph (1), it is stated that the granting of mortgage is preceded by a covenant to provide mortgage as the security for settlement of certain debts, which is set out in and as an integral part of the debt (loan) agreement concerned or other agreement which causees such debt. Mortgage is accessoir, which means that the granting of a mortgage should be a follow-up of the principal agreements i.e. agreement that gives rise a legal relation of such debt in which its settlement is secured. Therefore, it can be said that the existence of a mortgage is always agreed upon and follow (accessoir) the principal agreement.
Settlement of Certain Debt
According to Article 3 paragraph (1) of Law 4/96, the debts, in which its settlement can be secured are as follows: [More…]
debt which is already existed at the time of the granting of the Mortgage;

several creditors who combine in providing loan to a debtor under a legal relation (loan agreement);
several creditors who provide loan to a debtor under several and different legal relations (loan agreement) for each creditors.

Background
To maintain the sustainability of the national economic development, it needs large amount of funds. The more increase of development activities, the more of the needs of availability of funds, whereas such funds are mostly obtained through credit financing activities.
Considering the importance of the position of credit financing in the property development, it is reasonable enough for the creditor and the debtor and other related parties to obtain protection through an institution of security rights and who can provide legal certainty for all parties concerned, which can
encourage public participation in national development to realize
a prosperousand fair society. In order to realize that purpose, the government already arranged provisions in relation to such security rights, particularly for security rights of land as set forth in Law Number 4 of 1996 on Mortgage (Hak Tanggungan) along with Properties Related to the Land (“Law 4/96”).
Mortgage (Hak Tanggungan) of Land
In Article 1 of Law 4/96, a mortgage is a security right over right(s) of land, along with or without other properties that constitute a unity with such land, for the settlement of certain debts, which gives the preferred position to certain creditors against other creditors (“Mortgage”). Mortgage cannot be split, unless otherwise agreed in the Deed of Granting of Mortgage.
Rights of land that can be encumbered with Mortgage are right of ownership, right to cultivate, right to build, and right of use over state’s land (“Object”). An Object can be encumbered with more than one Mortgage in order to guarantee the settlement of more than one debt. If an Object is encumbered with more than one Mortgage, the rank (level) of each Mortgage is determined by the date of their registration at the Land Office.
