In a Nutshell Clause 9.1:

9.1 Borrower’s failure to deliver Equivalent Securities : If Borrower doesn’t deliver Equivalent Securities under para 8.3 Lender may:

(a) continue the Loan; or
(b) terminate the individual Loan per para 11.2 as if the Borrower was subject to an Event of Default but the Loan were the only outstanding Loan.

Notwithstanding the above, such a failure will not be an Event of Default.

2010 GMSLA full text of Clause 9.1:

9.1 Borrower’s failure to deliver Equivalent Securities: If Borrower fails to deliver Equivalent Securities in accordance with paragraph 8.3 Lender may:

(a) elect to continue the Loan (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall continue to be taken into account for the purposes of paragraph 5.4 or 5.5 as applicable); or
(b) at any time while such failure continues, by written notice to Borrower declare that that Loan (but only that Loan) shall be terminated immediately in accordance with paragraph 11.2 as if:
(i) an Event of Default had occurred in relation to the Borrower,
(ii) references to the Termination Date were to the date on which notice was given under this sub paragraph, and
(iii) the Loan were the only Loan outstanding.
For the avoidance of doubt, any such failure shall not constitute an Event of Default (including under paragraph 10.1(i)) unless the Parties otherwise agree.

If the Lender decides to terminate, you are into the realm of the fabled and famous mini close-out, wherein the Lender exercises rights to terminate and value the Loan by itself as if it were an Event of Default, whilst not actually being an Event of Default.
