(b) The issuer's undertaking must contain a specified expiration date or be for a definite term and must be limited in amount.

(c) The issuer's obligation to pay must be solely dependent upon the presentation of conforming documents as specified in the letter of credit, and not upon the factual performance or nonperformance by the parties to the underlying transaction.
