Dante borrowed Php230,000.00 from Christopher. As security for the payment of the debt, Dante pledged to Christopher a Harley Davidson valued at Php250,000.00. It was expressly stipulated in the contract that if Dante cannot pay his debt when it matures, "the debt of Php230,000.00 shall be considered as full payment of the Harley Davidson without further action."
