The point is too theoretical to argue. In theory, of course if the lender didn't think the money would be returned they would sell the collateral shares. Of course they would. After all, that's what it's for. (duh!)

But they would have to have a reason to believe that and it would have to be within a risk informed decision framework. Otherwise the portfolio manager of the lending company in question would get instantly fired the second one of these decisions went against him. When the company is making their quarterly payments and making provisions to pay the balance early, it doesn't seem like a remotely reasonable risk.
