§ 1301.309.

A term providing that one party or that party's successor in interest may accelerate

payment or performance or require collateral or additional collateral “at will” or

when the party “deems itself insecure,” or in words of similar import, means that

the party has power to do so only if that party in good faith believes that the prospect

of payment or performance is impaired.  The burden of establishing lack of good faith is on the party against which the

power has been exercised.
