§ 9506. Effect of errors or omissions.
(a) Minor errors and omissions.--A financing statement substantially satisfying the requirements of this chapter is effective even if it has minor errors or omissions unless the errors or omissions make the financing statement seriously misleading.
(b) Financing statement seriously misleading.--Except as otherwise provided in subsection (c), a financing statement which fails sufficiently to provide the name of the debtor in accordance with section 9503(a) (relating to sufficiency of debtor's name) is seriously misleading.
(c) Financing statement not seriously misleading.--If a search of the records of the filing office under the debtor's correct name, using the filing office's standard search logic, if any, would disclose a financing statement which fails sufficiently to provide the name of the debtor in accordance with section 9503(a), the name provided does not make the financing statement seriously misleading.
(d) Debtor's correct name.--For purposes of section 9508(b) (relating to effectiveness of financing statement if new debtor becomes bound by security agreement), the "debtor's correct name" in subsection (c) means the correct name of the new debtor.
