in which the secured party holds or held a purchase-money security

interest if:

(1) the debtor acquired its interest in the software in an

integrated transaction in which it acquired an interest in the

goods; and

(2) the debtor acquired its interest in the software for the

principal purpose of using the software in the goods.

(d) The security interest of a consignor in goods that are the

subject of a consignment is a purchase-money security interest in

inventory.

(e) In a transaction other than a consumer-goods transaction,

if the extent to which a security interest is a purchase-money

security interest depends on the application of a payment to a

particular obligation, the payment must be applied:

(1) in accordance with any reasonable method of application to

which the parties agree;

(2) in the absence of the parties’ agreement to a reasonable

method, in accordance with any intention of the obligor manifested

at or before the time of payment; or

(3) in the absence of an agreement to a reasonable method and a

timely manifestation of the obligor’s intention, in the following

order:

(A) to obligations that are not secured; and

(B) if more than one obligation is secured, to obligations

secured by purchase-money security interests in the

order in which those obligations were incurred.

(f) In a transaction other than a consumer-goods transaction, a

purchase-money security interest does not lose its status as such,

even if:

(1) the purchase-money collateral also secures an obligation

that is not a purchase-money obligation;

(2) collateral that is not purchase-money collateral also

secures the purchase-money obligation; or

(3) the purchase-money obligation has been renewed, refinanced,

consolidated, or restructured.

(g) In a transaction other than a consumer-goods transaction, a

secured party claiming a purchase-money security interest has the

burden of establishing the extent to which the security interest is

a purchase-money security interest.

(h) The limitation of the rules in subsections (e), (f), and

(g) of this section to transactions other than consumer-goods

transactions is intended to leave to the court the determination of

the proper rules in consumer-goods transactions. The court may not

infer from that limitation the nature of the proper rule in

consumer-goods transactions and may continue to apply established

approaches.
