In re Autostyle Plastics
(DBN Subscription Required)
6th Cir.  A secured creditor's claim that the liens of participants in a participation agreement were void because of the absence of separate security agreements for each participant was  wholly without merit. The U.C.C. does not require participants to obtain separate security agreements or to file separate financing statements, nor does the U.C.C. require a lead lender's financing statement to identify participants in the underlying loan.

Nor did the bankruptcy court err in finding that the participants claims could not be equitably subordinated or recharacterized as equity.
