OPINION
KENNETH J. MEYERS, Bankruptcy Judge.
At issue in this chapter 13 proceeding is whether a written agreement between RTO Rents (“RTO”) and debtor for the lease of a washer and dryer is a true lease subject to assumption or rejection under 11 U.S.C. § 365 or a security agreement. In her plan, debtor treats RTO’s claim as secured and proposes to pay RTO the sum of $500.00 (the alleged value of the property) plus interest at the rate of nine percent. RTO objects to confirmation of the plan on the basis that the agreement at issue is a lease that must be assumed or rejected.
