1. ABC Inc. borrowed funds from XYZ LLC to operate its auto parts business. The loan was secured by the molds that were used to form the parts. ABC contracted with FFF to make the parts and provided FFF with the molds. When ABC defaulted on its obligations to XYZ and FFF, FFF asserted a "molder's lien" against the molds in its possession. A molder's lien is similar to an artisan's lien. XYZ argued that the molds were its property. Which claim has priority? Explain.
