French term or phrase: aucun gage ou nantissement
Once again, I understand what this means, but am hoping to find a neat phrase for this. For the moment I have "neither security nor collteral" but am not at all satisfied. The sentence:

La cédante déclare qu’au jour de la signature du présent acte, aucune licence d’exploitation ni aucune cession n’ont été consenties sur les brevets, lesquels ne font par ailleurs l’objet d’aucun gage ou nantissement, qu’ainsi, la cédante en a la libre disposition.

Explanation:
... a pledge of property as collateral for a debt without transfer of possession to the party making the loan. The arrangement is common with modern mortgages; the borrower retains legal ownership of the property but provides the lender with a lien over the property until the debt is paid off.
