§ 805. § 9—805.

  • Effectiveness of action taken before effective date (a) The filing of a financing statement before the Act takes effect is effective to perfect
    a security interest to the extent the filing would satisfy the applicable requirements
    for perfection under Article 9 of this title, as amended by the Act. (b) The Act does not render ineffective an effective financing statement that, before
    the Act takes effect, is filed and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection
    under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Article 9 of
    this title as it existed before the amendment. However, except as otherwise provided
    in subsections (c) and (d) of this section and section 9—806 of this title, the financing statement ceases to be effective: (1) if the financing statement is filed in this State, at the time the financing statement
    would have ceased to be effective had the Act not taken effect; or (2) if the financing statement is filed in another jurisdiction, at the earlier of: (A) the time the financing statement would have ceased to be effective under the law of
    that jurisdiction; or (B) June 30, 2019. (c) The filing of a continuation statement after the Act takes effect does not continue
    the effectiveness of a financing statement filed before the Act takes effect. However,
    upon the timely filing of a continuation statement after the Act takes effect and
    in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided under
    Article 9 of this title, as amended by the Act, the effectiveness of a financing statement
    filed in the same office in that jurisdiction before the Act takes effect continues
    for the period provided by the law of that jurisdiction. (d) Subdivision (b)(2)(B) of this section applies to a financing statement that, before
    the Act takes effect, is filed against a transmitting utility and satisfies the applicable
    requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection
    as provided in Article 9 of this title, as it existed before amendment, only to the
    extent that Article 9 of this title, as amended by the Act, provides that the law
    of a jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which the financing statement is
    filed governs perfection of a security interest in collateral covered by the financing
    statement. (e) A financing statement that includes a financing statement filed before the Act takes
    effect and a continuation statement filed after the Act takes effect is effective
    only to the extent that it satisfies the requirements of Article 9, Part 5 of this
    title, as amended by the Act, for an initial financing statement. A financing statement
    that indicates that the debtor is a decedent’s estate indicates that the collateral
    is being administered by a personal representative within the meaning of subdivision 9—503(a)(2) of this title, as amended by the Act. A financing statement that indicates that the debtor is
    a trust or is a trustee acting with respect to property held in trust indicates that
    the collateral is held in a trust within the meaning of subdivision 9—503(a)(3) of this title, as amended by the Act. (Added 2013, No. 157 (Adj. Sess.), § 1.)
