Where the debtor of the assigned debt is a professional debtor within the meaning of article 3of
this Uniform Act, he may at the request of the assignee commit himself to pay directly by
accepting the said assignment.
In that case, the debtor may not set up against the assignee any defense based on his personal
relationship with the assignor unless the assignee on acquiring or receiving the loan acted
knowingly to the detriment of the debtor. Under pain of nullity, the said commitment shall be
by an instrument titled “Deed of Acceptance of an Assignment of a Debt as Security”
reproducing in sufficiently clear letters the provisions of this article.
