The scope of the unspecified claims to be secured by the mortgage under the provisions of the preceding paragraph (referred to as "revolving mortgage" below) must be prescribed by limiting the scope to claims arising from specific contracts with the obligor for continuous transactions or other claims arising from certain kinds of transactions with the obligor.
