How courts have described this case

• “Because the purported ‘lease’ was not a true lease but a security arrangement, [the ‘lessee’] owned the equipment on the date of bankruptcy.”
• where “lease” included no purchase option, “lessee” paid sums equivalent to original value plus interest, and evidence showed that the equipment would be rendered obsolescent by the end of the lease period, the transaction is that of an installment sale
