Effect of Certain Events on Effectiveness of Financing Statement
Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) CHAPTER 38, ARTICLE 9, PART 5, SUBPART 1
Section 9--507. Effect of Certain Events on Effectiveness of Financing
Statement.
(a) Disposition. A filed financing statement remains effective with
respect to collateral that is sold, exchanged, leased, licensed, or
otherwise disposed of and in which a security interest or agricultural
lien continues, even if the secured party knows of or consents to the
disposition.
(b) Information becoming seriously misleading. Except as otherwise
provided in subsection (c) and Section 9--508, a financing statement is
not rendered ineffective if, after the financing statement is filed, the
information provided in the financing statement becomes seriously
misleading under Section 9--506.
(c) Change in debtor's name. If the name that a filed financing
statement provides for a debtor becomes insufficient as the name of the
debtor under Section 9--503(a) so that the financing statement becomes
seriously misleading under Section 9--506:
(1) the financing statement is effective to perfect a security
interest in collateral acquired by the debtor before, or
within four months after, the filed financing statement
becomes seriously misleading; and
(2) the financing statement is not effective to perfect a
security interest in collateral acquired by the debtor more
than four months after the filed financing statement becomes
seriously misleading, unless an amendment to the financing
statement which renders the financing statement not seriously
misleading is filed within four months after the financing
statement became seriously misleading.
