another provision of the law, upon the amount of the claim allowed less the fair value of the
security; or
(2) if the creditor does not have the right to exhaust his security or has not done so, upon
the amount of the claim allowed less the value of the security determined by converting it into
money according to the terms of the agreement pursuant to which the security was delivered to
the creditor, or by the creditor and trustee by agreement, arbitration, compromise, or litigation.
