course of business. (a) In this section, "licensee in ordinary course of business" means
a person that becomes a licensee of a general intangible in good faith, without knowledge

licensor is engaged or with the licensor's own usual or customary practices.
(b) A licensee in ordinary course of business takes its rights under a nonexclusive
license free of a security interest in the general intangible created by the licensor, even
if the security interest is perfected and the licensee knows of its existence.
(c) A lessee in ordinary course of business takes its leasehold interest free of a
security interest in the goods created by the lessor, even if the security interest is perfected
and the lessee knows of its existence.
