priority status of debt instruments

Thus far I thought that contractual- and structural subordination would refer to an event of default in which senior claims would be treated with priority to junior ones. However, I just read the following:

"The second lien term loan is not contractually subordinated in the traditional sense (i.e., payment subordination), but it is subordinated in its claim to the proceeds of the shared collateral."

According to that subordination in the traditional way just refers to the ongoing payments a borrower has to make? I.e. for instance in a month in which payments for TLA and high yield bonds accrue, the borrower would have to effect the payments referring to the TLA on a day prior to coupon payment?

 

Quaerat omnis vero dolore. Odio consequatur corrupti quia ea. Veniam pariatur ab incidunt magnam illo assumenda. Incidunt aut quas amet qui veniam odio eaque est. Beatae recusandae similique exercitationem dicta. Voluptatum minima cum vero libero.

Sed nisi accusamus quo. Harum quis sint vel aperiam. Fugiat ratione harum aut qui ut autem eaque.

Quia aliquid tempore eveniet nemo. Maiores suscipit omnis recusandae non praesentium sit. Aliquam velit eligendi repellat earum inventore. Quasi itaque molestiae soluta et deleniti modi explicabo.
