Where the collateral in the possession of the creditor consists of fungibles he shall, except
otherwise provided, hold them separately or cause them to be held separately from other things
of the same kind held by him or by the third party agreed upon. Failing this, the settlor may
demand the return of the collateral without prejudice to his claim for damages.
Where the agreement exempts the creditor from the said obligation, he shall acquire the right of
ownership of the collateral on condition that he returns the same quantity of equivalent things.
Where possession is given to a third party in escrow the right of ownership so acquired by the
creditor may be exercised on assets of the same kind and quality held by the third party agreed
upon.
