§ 104.9503. Name of debtor and secured party provided in financing statement
1. A financing statement sufficiently provides the name of the debtor: (a) Except as otherwise provided in paragraph (c), if the debtor is a registered organization
or the collateral is held in a trust that is a registered organization, only if the
financing statement provides the name that is stated to be the registered organization's
name on the public organic record most recently filed with or issued or enacted by
the registered organization's jurisdiction of organization which purports to state,
amend or restate the registered organization's name; (b) Subject to subsection 6, if the collateral is being administered by the personal
representative of a decedent, only if the financing statement provides, as the name
of the debtor, the name of the decedent and, in a separate part of the financing statement,
indicates that the collateral is being administered by a personal representative; (c) If the collateral is held in a trust that is not a registered organization, only
if the financing statement: (1) Provides, as the name of the debtor: (I) If the organic record of the trust specifies a name for the trust, the name so
specified; or (II) If the organic record of the trust does not specify a name for the trust, the
name of the settlor or testator; and (2) In a separate part of the financing statement: (I) If the name is provided in accordance with sub-subparagraph (I) of subparagraph
(1), indicates that the collateral is held in a trust; or (II) If the name is provided in accordance with sub-subparagraph (II) of subparagraph
(1), provides additional information sufficient to distinguish the trust from other
trusts having one or more of the same settlors or the same testator and indicates
that the collateral is held in a trust, unless the additional information so indicates; (d) Subject to subsection 7, if the debtor is a natural person to whom this State
has issued a driver's license that has not expired or to whom the agency of this State
that issues drivers’ licenses has issued, in lieu of a driver’s license, a personal
identification card that has not expired, only if the financing statement provides
the name of the natural person which is indicated on the driver's license or personal
identification card; (e) If the debtor is a natural person to whom paragraph (d) does not apply, only if
the financing statement provides the individual name of the debtor or the surname
and first personal name of the debtor; and (f) In other cases: (1) If the debtor has a name, only if the financing statement provides the organizational
name of the debtor; and (2) If the debtor does not have a name, only if the financing statement provides the
names of the partners, members, associates or other persons comprising the debtor,
in a manner that each name provided would be sufficient if the person named were the
debtor. 2. A financing statement that provides the name of the debtor in accordance with subsection
1 is not rendered ineffective by the absence of: (a) A trade name or other name of the debtor; or (b) Unless required under subparagraph (2) of paragraph (f) of subsection 1, names
of partners, members, associates or other persons comprising the debtor. 3. A financing statement that provides only the debtor's trade name does not sufficiently
provide the name of the debtor. 4. Failure to indicate the representative capacity of a secured party or representative
of a secured party does not affect the sufficiency of a financing statement. 5. A financing statement may provide the name of more than one debtor and the name
of more than one secured party. 6. The name of the decedent indicated on the order appointing the personal representative
of the decedent issued by the court having jurisdiction over the collateral is sufficient
as the “name of the decedent” under paragraph (b) of subsection 1. 7. If this State has issued to a natural person more than one driver's license or,
if none, more than one personal identification card, of a kind described in paragraph
(d) of subsection 1, the driver's license or personal identification card, as applicable,
that was issued most recently is the one to which paragraph (d) of subsection 1 refers. 8. In this section, the “ name of the settlor or testator ” means: (a) If the settlor is a registered organization, the name that is stated to be the
settlor's name on the public organic record most recently filed with or issued or
enacted by the registered settlor's jurisdiction of organization which purports to
state, amend or restate the settlor's name; or (b) In other cases, the name of the settlor or testator indicated in the trust's organic
record.
