ARBITRATION
An arbitration clause was limited to the issue of fair market value of the tenant's interest in the leased property. A lease with a hotel gave the landlord the right to purchase the tenant's interest in the hotel if the tenant elected to transfer its hotel business to a third party. In the event the parties could not agree on the fair market value of the interest, the lease required the parties to arbitrate. When the landlord decided to exercise its option to purchase, and the parties were unable to agree on the price, the hotel filed a demand for arbitration of that issue as well as several other disputes between the parties.
The landlord filed a motion to stay arbitration and the court concluded that the sole issue for arbitration would be the fair market value for the tenant's interest in the hotel, pursuant to the arbitration clause in the lease. The court subsequently stayed the arbitration when it found that the hotel had defaulted on the lease and the landlord had terminated it.

Possession of real property is a matter of physical fact. Having the right or legal entitlement to possession is not "possession," possession is "the fact of having or holding property in one's power." That power means having physical dominion and control over the property.
UCC Sections 9406(d) and 9408(a) are one of the most powerful, yet least understood, sections of the Uniform Commercial Code. On their face, they appear to override anti-assignment provisions in agreements that would limit the grant of a security interest. But do these sections really work?
