| priority rule of pro rata treatment for cases where multiple | secured parties have obtained control but omitted to specify | their respective rights by agreement. See Section 9-115(5)(b) 9- | 328(2) [Maine cite section 9-1328, subsection (2)] and Comment 6 | 5 to Section 9-115 9-328 [Maine cite section 9-1328]. Because | the purchaser priority rule in Section 8-510(c) is intended to | track the Article 9 [Maine cite Article 9-A] priority rules, it | too has a pro rata temporal priority rule for cases where | multiple non-secured party purchasers have obtained control but | omitted to specify their respective rights by agreement. The | rule is patterned on Section 9-328(2) [Maine cite section 1328, | subsection (2)]. |
