Perfection of security interests in property | ||||||
16 | subject to
certain
statutes, regulations, and treaties.
| ||||||
17 | (a) Security interest subject to other law. Except as | ||||||
18 | otherwise
provided in subsection (d), the filing of a financing | ||||||
19 | statement is not
necessary or
effective to perfect a security | ||||||
20 | interest in property subject to:
| ||||||
21 | (1) a statute, regulation, or treaty of the United | ||||||
22 | States whose
requirements for a security interest's | ||||||
23 | obtaining priority over the rights of a
lien
creditor with | ||||||
24 | respect to the property preempt Section 9-310(a);
| ||||||
25 | (2) the Illinois Vehicle Code or the Boat Registration |
| |||||||
| |||||||

| ||||||
8 | requirements of a statute, regulation, or treaty described in | ||||||
9 | subsection (a)

filing of a
financing statement | ||||||
11 | under this Article. Except as otherwise provided in subsection
| ||||||
12 | (d) and Sections 9-313 and 9-316(d) and (e) for goods covered | ||||||
13 | by a certificate of
title, a security interest in property | ||||||
14 | subject to a statute, regulation, or treaty
described in | ||||||
15 | subsection (a) may be perfected only by compliance with those
| ||||||
16 | requirements, and a security interest so perfected remains | ||||||
17 | perfected
notwithstanding a change in the use or transfer of | ||||||
18 | possession of the collateral.
| ||||||
19 | (c) Duration and renewal of perfection. Except as otherwise
| ||||||
20 | provided in subsection (d) and Section 9-316(d) and (e), | ||||||
21 | duration and renewal

22 | perfected by compliance with the requirements
prescribed by a | ||||||
23 | statute, regulation, or treaty described in subsection (a) are
| ||||||
24 | governed by the statute, regulation, or treaty. In other | ||||||
25 | respects, the
security interest
is subject to this Article.
| ||||||
26 | (d) Inapplicability to certain inventory. During any |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | period in
which
collateral subject to a
statute specified in | ||||||
2 | subsection (a)(2)
is inventory held for sale or lease by a | ||||||
3 | person or leased by
that
person as lessor and that person is in | ||||||
4 | the business of selling or leasing goods
of that
kind, this | ||||||
5 | Section does not apply to a security interest in that | ||||||
6 | collateral
created by

9 | Sec. 9-316. Effect of Continued perfection of security | ||||||
10 | interest following change
in governing law. | ||||||
11 | (a) General rule: effect on perfection of change in | ||||||
12 | governing
law. A security interest perfected pursuant to the | ||||||
13 | law of the jurisdiction
designated
in Section 9-301(1) or | ||||||
14 | 9-305(c) remains perfected until the earliest of:
| ||||||
15 | (1) the time perfection would have ceased under the law | ||||||
16 | of
that jurisdiction;
| ||||||
17 | (2) the expiration of four months after a change of the
| ||||||
18 | debtor's location to another jurisdiction; or
| ||||||
19 | (3) the expiration of one year after a transfer of | ||||||
20 | collateral to a
person that thereby becomes a debtor and is | ||||||
21 | located in another jurisdiction.
| ||||||
22 | (b) Security interest perfected or unperfected under law of | ||||||
23 | new
jurisdiction. If a security interest described in | ||||||
24 | subsection (a) becomes perfected
under the law of the other | ||||||
25 | jurisdiction before the earliest time or event described in
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | that subsection, it remains perfected thereafter. If the | ||||||
2 | security interest does not
become perfected under the law of | ||||||
3 | the other jurisdiction before the earliest time or
event, it | ||||||
4 | becomes unperfected and is deemed never to have been perfected | ||||||
5 | as
against a purchaser of the collateral for value.
| ||||||
6 | (c) Possessory security interest in collateral moved to new
| ||||||
7 | jurisdiction. A possessory security interest in collateral, | ||||||
8 | other than goods covered
by a certificate of title and | ||||||
9 | as-extracted collateral consisting of goods, remains
| ||||||
10 | continuously perfected if:
| ||||||
11 | (1) the collateral is located in one jurisdiction and | ||||||
12 | subject to
a security interest perfected under the law of | ||||||
13 | that jurisdiction;
| ||||||
14 | (2) thereafter the collateral is brought into another
| ||||||
15 | jurisdiction; and
| ||||||
16 | (3) upon entry into the other jurisdiction, the | ||||||
17 | security interest
is perfected under the law of the other | ||||||
18 | jurisdiction.
| ||||||
19 | (d) Goods covered by certificate of title from this State. | ||||||
20 | Except
as otherwise provided in subsection (e), a security | ||||||
21 | interest in goods covered by a
certificate of title which is | ||||||
22 | perfected by any method under the law of another
jurisdiction | ||||||
23 | when the goods become covered by a certificate of title from | ||||||
24 | this State
remains perfected until the security interest would | ||||||
25 | have become unperfected
under
the law of the other jurisdiction | ||||||
26 | had the goods not become so covered.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (e) When subsection (d) security interest becomes | ||||||
2 | unperfected
against purchasers. A security interest described | ||||||
3 | in subsection (d) becomes
unperfected as against a purchaser of | ||||||
4 | the goods for value and is deemed never
to
have been perfected | ||||||
5 | as against a purchaser of the goods for value if the
applicable
| ||||||
6 | requirements for perfection under Section 9-311(b) or 9-313 are | ||||||
7 | not satisfied
before
the earlier of:
| ||||||
8 | (1) the time the security interest would have become
| ||||||
9 | unperfected under the law of the other jurisdiction had the | ||||||
10 | goods not become
covered by a certificate of title from | ||||||
11 | this State; or
| ||||||
12 | (2) the expiration of four months after the goods had | ||||||
13 | become
so covered.
| ||||||
14 | (f) Change in jurisdiction of bank, issuer, nominated | ||||||
15 | person,
securities intermediary, or commodity intermediary. A | ||||||
16 | security interest in
deposit accounts, letter-of-credit | ||||||
17 | rights, or investment property which is perfected
under the law | ||||||
18 | of the bank's jurisdiction, the issuer's jurisdiction, a | ||||||
19 | nominated
person's jurisdiction, the securities intermediary's | ||||||
20 | jurisdiction, or the commodity
intermediary's jurisdiction, as | ||||||
21 | applicable, remains perfected until the earlier of:
| ||||||
22 | (1) the time the security interest would have become
| ||||||
23 | unperfected under the law of that jurisdiction; or
| ||||||
24 | (2) the expiration of four months after a change of the
| ||||||
25 | applicable jurisdiction to another jurisdiction.
| ||||||
26 | (g) Subsection (f) security interest perfected or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | unperfected
under law of new jurisdiction. If a security | ||||||
2 | interest described in subsection
(f)
becomes perfected under | ||||||
3 | the law of the other jurisdiction before the earlier of
the
| ||||||
4 | time or the end of the period described in that subsection, it | ||||||
5 | remains
perfected
thereafter. If the security interest does not | ||||||
6 | become perfected under the law
of the
other jurisdiction before | ||||||
7 | the earlier of that time or the end of that period,
it becomes
| ||||||
8 | unperfected and is deemed never to have been perfected as | ||||||
9 | against a purchaser
of
the collateral for value.
| ||||||
10 | (h) Effect on filed financing statement of change in | ||||||
11 | governing law. The following rules apply to collateral to which | ||||||
12 | a security interest attaches within four months after the | ||||||
13 | debtor changes its location to another jurisdiction: | ||||||
14 | (1) A financing statement filed before the change | ||||||
15 | pursuant to the law of the jurisdiction designated in | ||||||
16 | Section 9-301(1) or 9-305(c) is effective to perfect a | ||||||
17 | security interest in the collateral if the financing | ||||||
18 | statement would have been effective to perfect a security | ||||||
19 | interest in the collateral had the debtor not changed its | ||||||
20 | location. | ||||||
21 | (2) If a security interest perfected by a financing | ||||||
22 | statement that is effective under paragraph (1) becomes | ||||||
23 | perfected under the law of the other jurisdiction before | ||||||
24 | the earlier of the time the financing statement would have | ||||||
25 | become ineffective under the law of the jurisdiction | ||||||
26 | designated in Section 9-301(1) or 9-305(c) or the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | expiration of the four-month period, it remains perfected | ||||||
2 | thereafter. If the security interest does not become | ||||||
3 | perfected under the law of the other jurisdiction before | ||||||
4 | the earlier time or event, it becomes unperfected and is | ||||||
5 | deemed never to have been perfected as against a purchaser | ||||||
6 | of the collateral for value. | ||||||
7 | (i) Effect of change in governing law on financing | ||||||
8 | statement filed against original debtor. If a financing | ||||||
9 | statement naming an original debtor is filed pursuant to the | ||||||
10 | law of the jurisdiction designated in Section 9-301(1) or | ||||||
11 | 9-305(c) and the new debtor is located in another jurisdiction, | ||||||
12 | the following rules apply: | ||||||
13 | (1) The financing statement is effective to perfect a | ||||||
14 | security interest in collateral acquired by the new debtor | ||||||
15 | before, and within four months after, the new debtor | ||||||
16 | becomes bound under Section 9-203(d), if the financing | ||||||
17 | statement would have been effective to perfect a security | ||||||
18 | interest in the collateral had the collateral been acquired | ||||||
19 | by the original debtor. | ||||||
20 | (2) A security interest perfected by the financing | ||||||
21 | statement and which becomes perfected under the law of the | ||||||
22 | other jurisdiction before the earlier of the time the | ||||||
23 | financing statement would have become ineffective under | ||||||
24 | the law of the jurisdiction designated in Section 9-301(1) | ||||||
25 | or 9-305(c) or the expiration of the four-month period | ||||||
26 | remains perfected thereafter. A security interest that is |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | perfected by the financing statement but which does not | ||||||
2 | become perfected under the law of the other jurisdiction | ||||||
3 | before the earlier time or event becomes unperfected and is | ||||||
4 | deemed never to have been perfected as against a purchaser | ||||||
5 | of the collateral for value. | ||||||

23 | (b) Buyers that receive delivery. Except as otherwise | ||||||
24 | provided in
subsection (e), a buyer, other than a secured | ||||||
25 | party, of tangible chattel paper,
tangible documents, goods, |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | instruments, or a certificated security security certificate | ||||||

11 | perfected.
| ||||||
12 | (d) Licensees and buyers of certain collateral. A licensee | ||||||

22 | financing statement
with
respect to a purchase-money security | ||||||
23 | interest before or within 20 days after

| ||||||
25 | priority over the
rights of a buyer, lessee, or lien creditor | ||||||
26 | which arise between the time the
security
interest
attaches and |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the time of filing.
| ||||||

13 | debtor.
| ||||||
14 | (a) Subordination of security interest created by new | ||||||
15 | debtor.
Subject to subsection (b), a security interest that is | ||||||
16 | created by a new debtor in collateral in which the new debtor | ||||||
17 | has or acquires rights and is
perfected solely by a filed | ||||||
18 | financing statement that would be ineffective to perfect the | ||||||
19 | security interest but for the application of Section | ||||||
20 | 9-316(i)(1) or 9-508 is effective solely under Section
9-508
in | ||||||
21 | collateral in which a new debtor has or acquires rights is | ||||||
22 | subordinate to a
security interest in the same collateral which | ||||||
23 | is perfected other than by such a
filed
financing statement | ||||||
24 | that is effective solely under Section 9-508 .
| ||||||
25 | (b) Priority under other provisions; multiple original |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | debtors.
The other provisions of this Part determine the | ||||||
2 | priority among conflicting
security
interests in the same | ||||||
3 | collateral perfected by filed financing statements that
are
| ||||||
4 | effective solely under Section 9-508 . However, if the security | ||||||
5 | agreements to
which
a new debtor became bound as debtor were | ||||||
6 | not entered into by the same original
debtor, the conflicting | ||||||
7 | security interests rank according to priority in time
of the
| ||||||
8 | new debtor's having become bound.

| ||||||
20 | assignor or
the assignee, that the amount due or to become due | ||||||
21 | has been assigned and that
payment is to be made to the | ||||||
22 | assignee. After receipt of the notification, the
account
debtor | ||||||
23 | may discharge its obligation by paying the assignee and may not
| ||||||
24 | discharge
the obligation by paying the assignor.
| ||||||
25 | (b) When notification ineffective. Subject to subsection |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (h),
notification is ineffective under subsection (a):
| ||||||
2 | (1) if it does not reasonably identify the rights | ||||||
3 | assigned;
| ||||||
4 | (2) to the extent that an agreement between an account
| ||||||
5 | debtor and a seller of a payment intangible limits the | ||||||
6 | account debtor's duty to pay a
person other than the seller | ||||||
7 | and the limitation is effective under law other than this
| ||||||
8 | Article; or
| ||||||
9 | (3) at the option of an account debtor, if the | ||||||
10 | notification
notifies the account debtor to make less than | ||||||
11 | the full amount of any installment or
other periodic | ||||||
12 | payment to the assignee, even if:
| ||||||
13 | (A) only a portion of the account, chattel paper, | ||||||

20 | (c) Proof of assignment. Subject to subsection (h), if | ||||||
21 | requested by
the account debtor, an assignee shall seasonably | ||||||
22 | furnish reasonable proof that
the
assignment has been made. | ||||||
23 | Unless the assignee complies, the account debtor may
discharge | ||||||
24 | its obligation by paying the assignor, even if the account | ||||||

5 | (1) prohibits, restricts, or requires the consent of | ||||||
6 | the account
debtor or person obligated on the promissory | ||||||

of,
or the creation, | ||||||

11 | (2) provides that
the assignment or transfer or
the

12 | creation, attachment, perfection, or
enforcement of the | ||||||
13 | security interest may give rise to a default, breach, right
| ||||||
14 | of
recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of | ||||||
15 | termination, or remedy under
the
account, chattel paper, | ||||||
16 | payment intangible, or promissory note.

21 | under Section 9-620 .
| ||||||
22 | (f) Legal restrictions on assignment generally | ||||||
23 | ineffective.
Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2A-303 | ||||||
24 | and 9-407 and subject to

1 | official, or account
debtor to the assignment or transfer of, | ||||||

or
transfer of, or the creation, | ||||||
8 | attachment, perfection, or enforcement of a
security
| ||||||
9 | interest in the account or chattel paper; or
| ||||||
10 | (2) provides that the assignment or transfer or the | ||||||

enforcement of the | ||||||
12 | security interest may give rise to a default, breach, right
| ||||||
13 | of
recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of | ||||||
14 | termination, or remedy under
the
account or chattel paper.
| ||||||
15 | (g) Subsection (b)(3) not waivable. Subject to subsection | ||||||
16 | (h), an
account debtor may not waive or vary its option under | ||||||

6 | Except as
otherwise provided in subsection (b), a term in a | ||||||
7 | promissory note or in
an agreement between an account debtor | ||||||
8 | and a debtor which relates to a
health-care-insurance | ||||||
9 | receivable or a general intangible, including a
contract, | ||||||
10 | permit, license, or franchise, and which term prohibits, | ||||||
11 | restricts,
or requires the consent of the person obligated on | ||||||
12 | the promissory note or the
account debtor to, the assignment or | ||||||
13 | transfer of, or creation, attachment, or
perfection of a | ||||||
14 | security interest in, the promissory note,
| ||||||
15 | health-care-insurance receivable, or general intangible, is | ||||||
16 | ineffective to the
extent that the term:
| ||||||
17 | (1) would impair the creation, attachment, or | ||||||
18 | perfection of a
security interest; or
| ||||||
19 | (2) provides that the assignment or transfer or the | ||||||
20 | creation, attachment,
or perfection of the security | ||||||
21 | interest may give rise to a default, breach,
right of | ||||||
22 | recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of | ||||||

remedy under the promissory note, | ||||||
24 | health-care-insurance receivable, or general

an | ||||||
15 | account debtor and a debtor, is ineffective to the extent that | ||||||
16 | the rule of
law, statute, or regulation:
| ||||||
17 | (1) would impair the creation, attachment, or | ||||||
18 | perfection of a security
interest; or
| ||||||
19 | (2) provides that the assignment or transfer or the | ||||||
20 | creation, attachment,
or perfection of the security | ||||||
21 | interest may give rise to a default, breach,
right of | ||||||
22 | recoupment, claim, defense, termination, right of | ||||||
23 | termination, or
remedy under the promissory note, | ||||||
24 | health-care-insurance receivable, or general

26 | and (c).
To the extent that a term in a promissory note or in an |

account debtor and a debtor which relates | ||||||
2 | to a health-care-insurance receivable
or general intangible or | ||||||
3 | a rule of law, statute, or regulation described in
subsection | ||||||
4 | (c) would be effective under law other than this Article but is

6 | attachment, or
perfection of a security interest in the | ||||||
7 | promissory note, health-care-insurance
receivable, or general | ||||||
8 | intangible:
| ||||||
9 | (1) is not enforceable against the person obligated on | ||||||
10 | the promissory

| ||||||
11 | (2) does not impose a duty or obligation on the person | ||||||
12 | obligated on the
promissory note or the account debtor;

15 | security interest, pay or render performance
to the secured | ||||||
16 | party, or accept payment or performance from the secured | ||||||
17 | party;

| ||||||
11 | (a) Sufficiency of financing statement. Subject to | ||||||
12 | subsection (b),
a financing statement is sufficient only if it:
| ||||||
13 | (1) provides the name of the debtor;
| ||||||
14 | (2) provides the name of the secured party or a | ||||||
15 | representative
of the secured party; and
| ||||||
16 | (3) indicates the collateral covered by the financing
| ||||||
17 | statement.
| ||||||
18 | (b) Real-property-related financing statements. Except as
| ||||||
19 | otherwise provided in Section 9-501(b), to be sufficient, a | ||||||
20 | financing statement
that
covers as-extracted collateral or | ||||||
21 | timber to be cut, or which is filed as a
fixture filing
and | ||||||
22 | covers goods that are or are to become fixtures, must satisfy | ||||||
23 | subsection (a) and
also:
| ||||||
24 | (1) indicate that it covers this type of collateral;
| ||||||
25 | (2) indicate that it is to be filed in the real
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | property records;
| ||||||
2 | (3) provide a description of the real property to which | ||||||
3 | the
collateral is related sufficient to give constructive | ||||||
4 | notice of a mortgage
under the
law of this State if the | ||||||
5 | description were contained in a record of the mortgage
of | ||||||
6 | the
real property; and
| ||||||
7 | (4) if the debtor does not have an interest of record | ||||||
8 | in the real
property, provide the name of a record owner.
| ||||||
9 | (c) Record of mortgage as financing statement. A record of | ||||||
10 | a
mortgage is effective, from the date of recording, as a | ||||||
11 | financing statement
filed as a
fixture filing or as a financing | ||||||
12 | statement covering as-extracted collateral or
timber
to be cut | ||||||
13 | only if:
| ||||||
14 | (1) the record indicates the goods or accounts that it | ||||||
15 | covers;
| ||||||
16 | (2) the goods are or are to become fixtures related to | ||||||
17 | the real
property described in the record or the collateral | ||||||
18 | is related to the real
property
described in the record and | ||||||
19 | is as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut;
| ||||||
20 | (3) the record satisfies the requirements for a | ||||||
21 | financing
statement in this Section , but: | ||||||
22 | (A) the record need not indicate other than an | ||||||
23 | indication that it is to be filed in
the real
property | ||||||
24 | records; and
| ||||||
25 | (B) the record sufficiently provides the name of a | ||||||
26 | debtor who is an individual if it provides the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | individual name of the debtor or the surname and first | ||||||
2 | personal name of the debtor, even if the debtor is an | ||||||
3 | individual to whom Section 9-503(a)(4) applies; and
| ||||||
4 | (4) the record is recorded.
| ||||||
5 | (d) Filing before security agreement or attachment. A | ||||||
6 | financing
statement may be filed before a security agreement is | ||||||
7 | made or a security
interest
otherwise attaches.

| ||||||
11 | (a) Sufficiency of debtor's name. A financing statement
| ||||||
12 | sufficiently provides the name of the debtor:
| ||||||
13 | (1) except as otherwise provided in paragraph (3), if | ||||||
14 | the debtor is a registered organization or the collateral | ||||||
15 | is held in a trust that is a registered organization , only | ||||||
16 | if the
financing statement provides the name that is stated | ||||||
17 | to be the registered organization's name of the debtor | ||||||
18 | indicated on the public organic
record most recently filed | ||||||
19 | with or issued or enacted by
of the registered | ||||||
20 | organization's debtor's jurisdiction of organization which | ||||||
21 | purports to state, amend, or restate the registered | ||||||
22 | organization's name shows the debtor to have
been
| ||||||
23 | organized ;
| ||||||
24 | (2) subject to subsection (f), if the collateral is | ||||||
25 | being administered by the personal representative of a |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | decedent debtor is a decedent's estate , only if the | ||||||
2 | financing
statement provides , as the name of the debtor, | ||||||
3 | the name of the decedent and , in a separate part of the | ||||||
4 | financing statement, indicates that the collateral is | ||||||
5 | being administered by a personal representative debtor is | ||||||
6 | an
estate ;
| ||||||
7 | (3) if the collateral is held in a trust that is not a | ||||||
8 | registered organization debtor is a trust or a trustee | ||||||
9 | acting with respect to
property held in trust , only if the | ||||||
10 | financing statement:
| ||||||
11 | (A) provides , as the name of the debtor: | ||||||
12 | (i) if the organic record of the trust | ||||||
13 | specifies a name for the trust, the name specified; | ||||||
14 | or | ||||||
15 | (ii) if the organic record of the trust does | ||||||
16 | not specify a name for the trust, the name of the | ||||||
17 | settlor or testator the name specified for the | ||||||
18 | trust in its
organic documents or, if no name is | ||||||
19 | specified, provides the name of the settlor and
| ||||||
20 | additional information sufficient to distinguish | ||||||
21 | the debtor from other trusts having
one or more of | ||||||
22 | the same settlors ; and
| ||||||
23 | (B) in a separate part of the financing statement: | ||||||
24 | (i) if the name is provided in accordance with | ||||||
25 | subparagraph (A)(i), indicates that the collateral | ||||||
26 | is held in a trust; or |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (ii) if the name is provided in accordance with | ||||||
2 | subparagraph (A)(ii), provides additional | ||||||
3 | information sufficient to distinguish the trust | ||||||
4 | from other trusts having one or more of the same | ||||||
5 | settlors or the same testator and indicates that | ||||||
6 | the collateral is held in a trust, unless the | ||||||
7 | additional information so indicates; | ||||||
8 | (4) subject to subsection (g), if the debtor is an | ||||||
9 | individual to whom this State has issued a driver's license | ||||||
10 | that has not expired, only if the financing statement | ||||||
11 | provides the name of the individual which is indicated on | ||||||
12 | the driver's license; | ||||||
13 | (5) if the debtor is an individual to whom paragraph | ||||||
14 | (4) does not apply, only if the financing statement | ||||||
15 | provides the individual name of the debtor or the surname | ||||||
16 | and first personal name of the debtor indicates, in the | ||||||
17 | debtor's name or otherwise, that
the debtor is a trust or | ||||||
18 | is a trustee acting with respect to property held in trust ; | ||||||
19 | and
| ||||||
20 | (6) (4) in other cases:
| ||||||
21 | (A) if the debtor has a name, only if the financing | ||||||
22 | statement it provides the
individual or organizational | ||||||
23 | name of the debtor; and
| ||||||
24 | (B) if the debtor does not have a name, only if it
| ||||||
25 | provides the names of the partners, members, | ||||||
26 | associates, or other persons
comprising the debtor , in |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | a manner that each name provided would be sufficient if | ||||||
2 | the person named were the debtor .
| ||||||
3 | (b) Additional debtor-related information. A financing | ||||||
4 | statement
that provides the name of the debtor in accordance | ||||||
5 | with subsection (a) is not
rendered ineffective by the absence | ||||||
6 | of:
| ||||||
7 | (1) a trade name or other name of the debtor; or
| ||||||
8 | (2) unless required under subsection (a)(6)(B) | ||||||
9 | (a)(4)(B) , names of
partners, members, associates, or | ||||||
10 | other persons comprising the debtor.
| ||||||
11 | (c) Debtor's trade name insufficient. A financing | ||||||
12 | statement that
provides only the debtor's trade name does not | ||||||
13 | sufficiently provide the name of the
debtor.
| ||||||
14 | (d) Representative capacity. Failure to indicate the | ||||||
15 | representative
capacity of a secured party or representative of | ||||||
16 | a secured party does not affect the
sufficiency of a financing | ||||||

19 | statement
may provide the name of more than one debtor and the | ||||||
20 | name of more than one
secured party.
| ||||||
21 | (f) Name of decedent. The name of the decedent indicated on | ||||||
22 | the order appointing the personal representative of the | ||||||
23 | decedent issued by the court having jurisdiction over the | ||||||
24 | collateral is sufficient as the "name of the decedent" under | ||||||
25 | subsection (a)(2). | ||||||
26 | (g) Multiple driver's licenses. If this State has issued to |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | an individual more than one driver's license of a kind | ||||||

Effect of certain events on effectiveness of | ||||||
17 | financing
statement.
| ||||||
18 | (a) Disposition. A filed financing statement remains | ||||||
19 | effective with
respect to collateral that is sold, exchanged, | ||||||
20 | leased, licensed, or otherwise
disposed
of and in which a | ||||||
21 | security interest or agricultural lien continues, even if the
| ||||||
22 | secured
party knows of or consents to the disposition.
| ||||||
23 | (b) Information becoming seriously misleading. Except as
| ||||||
24 | otherwise provided in subsection (c) and Section 9-508, a | ||||||
25 | financing statement
is not
rendered ineffective if, after the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | financing statement is filed, the
information
provided in the | ||||||
2 | financing statement becomes seriously misleading under Section
| ||||||
3 | 9-506.
| ||||||
4 | (c) Change in debtor's name. If the a debtor so changes its | ||||||
5 | name that
a filed financing statement provides for a debtor | ||||||
6 | becomes insufficient as the name of the debtor under Section | ||||||
7 | 9-503(a) so that the financing statement becomes seriously | ||||||
8 | misleading under Section 9-506:
| ||||||
9 | (1) the financing statement is effective to perfect a | ||||||
10 | security
interest in collateral acquired by the debtor | ||||||
11 | before, or within four months
after, the filed financing | ||||||
12 | statement becomes seriously misleading
change ; and
| ||||||
13 | (2) the financing statement is not effective to perfect | ||||||
14 | a
security interest in collateral acquired by the debtor | ||||||
15 | more than four months
after the filed financing statement | ||||||
16 | becomes seriously misleading
change , unless an amendment | ||||||
17 | to the financing statement which renders the
financing | ||||||
18 | statement not seriously misleading is filed within four | ||||||
19 | months after
the filed financing statement becomes | ||||||
20 | seriously misleading
change .

| ||||||
23 | Sec. 9-515.
Duration and effectiveness of financing | ||||||
24 | statement; effect of
lapsed financing statement.
| ||||||
25 | (a) Five-year effectiveness. Except as otherwise provided |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | in
subsections (b), (e), (f), and (g), a filed financing | ||||||
2 | statement is effective
for a period
of five years after the | ||||||
3 | date of filing.
| ||||||
4 | (b) Public-finance or manufactured-home transaction. | ||||||
5 | Except
as otherwise provided in subsections (e), (f), and (g), | ||||||
6 | an initial financing
statement
filed in connection with a | ||||||
7 | public-finance transaction or manufactured-home
transaction is | ||||||
8 | effective for a period of 30 years after the date of filing if | ||||||
9 | it indicates
that it is filed in connection with a | ||||||
10 | public-finance transaction or
manufactured-home transaction.
| ||||||
11 | (c) Lapse and continuation of financing statement. The
| ||||||
12 | effectiveness of a filed financing statement lapses on the | ||||||
13 | expiration of the period of
its effectiveness unless before the | ||||||
14 | lapse a continuation statement is filed pursuant to
subsection | ||||||
15 | (d). Upon lapse, a financing statement ceases to be effective | ||||||
16 | and any
security interest or agricultural lien that was | ||||||
17 | perfected by the financing statement
becomes unperfected, | ||||||
18 | unless the security interest is perfected otherwise. If the
| ||||||
19 | security interest or agricultural lien becomes unperfected | ||||||
20 | upon lapse, it is deemed
never to have been perfected as | ||||||
21 | against a purchaser of the collateral for value.
| ||||||
22 | (d) When continuation statement may be filed. A | ||||||
23 | continuation
statement may be filed only within six months | ||||||
24 | before the expiration of the five-year
period specified in | ||||||
25 | subsection (a) or the 30-year period specified in subsection | ||||||
26 | (b),
whichever is applicable.
|
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | (e) Effect of filing continuation statement. Except as | ||||||
2 | otherwise
provided in Section 9-510, upon timely filing of a | ||||||
3 | continuation statement, the
effectiveness of the initial | ||||||
4 | financing statement continues for a period of five years
| ||||||
5 | commencing on the day on which the financing statement would | ||||||
6 | have become
ineffective in the absence of the filing. Upon the | ||||||
7 | expiration of the five-year period,
the financing statement | ||||||
8 | lapses in the same manner as provided in subsection (c),
| ||||||
9 | unless, before the lapse, another continuation statement is | ||||||
10 | filed pursuant to
subsection (d). Succeeding continuation | ||||||
11 | statements may be filed in the same
manner to continue the | ||||||
12 | effectiveness of the initial financing statement.
| ||||||
13 | (f) Transmitting utility financing statement. If a debtor | ||||||
14 | is a
transmitting utility and a filed initial financing | ||||||
15 | statement so indicates, the financing
statement is effective | ||||||
16 | until a termination statement is filed.
| ||||||
17 | (g) Record of mortgage as financing statement. A record of | ||||||
18 | a
mortgage that is effective as a financing statement filed as | ||||||
19 | a fixture filing under
Section 9-502(c) remains effective as a | ||||||
20 | financing statement filed as a fixture
filing
until the | ||||||
21 | mortgage is released or satisfied of record or its | ||||||
22 | effectiveness
otherwise
terminates as to the real property.

and mailing address for the secured | ||||||
22 | party of record;

| ||||||
10 | (iii) an organizational identification number
| ||||||
11 | for the debtor or indicate that the debtor has | ||||||

4 | tender of the filing fee,
but
which the filing office refuses | ||||||
5 | to accept for a reason other than one set forth
in
subsection | ||||||
6 | (b), is effective as a filed record except as against a | ||||||
7 | purchaser of
the
collateral which gives value in reasonable | ||||||
8 | reliance upon the absence of the
record
from the files.
| ||||||
9 | (e) The Secretary of State may refuse to accept a record | ||||||

9 | debtor or consumer obligor may recover damages under subsection | ||||||
10 | (b) and, in
addition, may in an individual action recover $500 | ||||||
11 | in each case from a person
that, without reasonable cause, | ||||||
12 | fails
to
comply with a request under Section 9-210. A recipient | ||||||
13 | of a request under
Section
9-210 which never claimed an | ||||||
14 | interest in the collateral or obligations that are
the
subject | ||||||
15 | of a request under that Section has a reasonable excuse for | ||||||
16 | failure to
comply
with the request within the meaning of this | ||||||
17 | subsection.
| ||||||
18 | (g) Limitation of security interest: noncompliance with | ||||||
19 | Section
9-210. If a secured party fails to comply with a | ||||||
20 | request regarding a list of
collateral
or a statement of | ||||||
21 | account under Section 9-210, the secured party may claim a
| ||||||
22 | security interest only as shown in the statement included in | ||||||
23 | the request as
against a
person that is reasonably misled by | ||||||
24 | the failure.

14 | (a) Pre-effective-date filing effective. The filing of a | ||||||
15 | financing statement before the effective date of this | ||||||
16 | amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly is effective to | ||||||

19 | Article 9 as amended by this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||
20 | Assembly. | ||||||
21 | (b) When pre-effective-date filing becomes ineffective. | ||||||
22 | This amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly does not | ||||||
23 | render ineffective an effective financing statement that, | ||||||
24 | before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th | ||||||
25 | General Assembly, is filed and satisfies the applicable |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction | ||||||
2 | governing perfection as provided in Article 9 as it existed | ||||||
3 | before the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th | ||||||
4 | General Assembly. However, except as otherwise provided in | ||||||
5 | subsections (c) and (d) and Section 9-806, the financing | ||||||
6 | statement ceases to be effective: | ||||||
7 | (1) if the financing statement is filed in this State, | ||||||
8 | at the time the financing statement would have ceased to be | ||||||
9 | effective had this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||
10 | Assembly not taken effect; or | ||||||
11 | (2) if the financing statement is filed in another | ||||||
12 | jurisdiction, at the earlier of: | ||||||
13 | (A) the time the financing statement would have | ||||||
14 | ceased to be effective under the law of that | ||||||
15 | jurisdiction; or | ||||||

19 | the 97th General Assembly does not continue the effectiveness | ||||||
20 | of a financing statement filed before the effective date of | ||||||
21 | this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly. However, upon | ||||||
22 | the timely filing of a continuation statement after the | ||||||
23 | effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||
24 | Assembly and in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction | ||||||
25 | governing perfection as provided in Article 9, the | ||||||
26 | effectiveness of a financing statement filed in the same office |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | in that jurisdiction before the effective date of this | ||||||
2 | amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly continues for the | ||||||
3 | period provided by the law of that jurisdiction. | ||||||
4 | (d) Application of subsection (b)(2)(B) to transmitting | ||||||
5 | utility financing statement. Subsection (b)(2)(B) applies to a | ||||||
6 | financing statement that, before the effective date of this | ||||||
7 | amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly, is filed against a | ||||||
8 | transmitting utility and satisfies the applicable requirements | ||||||
9 | for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing | ||||||
10 | perfection as provided in Article 9 as it existed before the | ||||||
11 | effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||
12 | Assembly, only to the extent that Article 9 as amended by this | ||||||
13 | amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly provides that the | ||||||
14 | law of a jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which the | ||||||
15 | financing statement is filed governs perfection of a security | ||||||
16 | interest in collateral covered by the financing statement. | ||||||
17 | (e) Application of Part 5. A financing statement that | ||||||
18 | includes a financing statement filed before the effective date | ||||||
19 | of this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly and a | ||||||
20 | continuation statement filed after the effective date of this | ||||||
21 | amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly is effective only | ||||||
22 | to the extent that it satisfies the requirements of Part 5 as | ||||||
23 | amended by this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly for | ||||||
24 | an initial financing statement. A financing statement that | ||||||
25 | indicates that the debtor is a decedent's estate indicates that | ||||||
26 | the collateral is being administered by a personal |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | representative within the meaning of Section 9-503(a)(2) as | ||||||
2 | amended by this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly. A | ||||||
3 | financing statement that indicates that the debtor is a trust | ||||||
4 | or is a trustee acting with respect to property held in trust | ||||||
5 | indicates that the collateral is held in a trust within the | ||||||
6 | meaning of Section 9-503(a)(3) as amended by this amendatory | ||||||
7 | Act of the 97th General Assembly.

9 | Sec. 9-806. When initial financing statement suffices to | ||||||
10 | continue effectiveness of financing statement. | ||||||
11 | (a) Initial financing statement in lieu of continuation | ||||||
12 | statement. The filing of an initial financing statement in the | ||||||
13 | office specified in Section 9-501 continues the effectiveness | ||||||
14 | of a financing statement filed before the effective date of | ||||||
15 | this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly if: | ||||||
16 | (1) the filing of an initial financing statement in | ||||||
17 | that office would be effective to perfect a security | ||||||
18 | interest under Article 9 as amended by this amendatory Act | ||||||
19 | of the 97th General Assembly; | ||||||
20 | (2) the pre-effective-date financing statement was | ||||||
21 | filed in an office in another State; and | ||||||
22 | (3) the initial financing statement satisfies | ||||||
23 | subsection (c). | ||||||
24 | (b) Period of continued effectiveness. The filing of an | ||||||
25 | initial financing statement under subsection (a) continues the |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | effectiveness of the pre-effective-date financing
statement: | ||||||
2 | (1) if the initial financing statement is filed before | ||||||
3 | the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th | ||||||
4 | General Assembly, for the period provided in Section 9-515 | ||||||
5 | as it existed before the effective date of this amendatory | ||||||
6 | Act of the 97th General Assembly with respect to an initial | ||||||
7 | financing statement; and | ||||||
8 | (2) if the initial financing statement is filed after | ||||||
9 | the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th | ||||||
10 | General Assembly, for the period provided in Section 9-515 | ||||||
11 | as amended by this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||
12 | Assembly with respect to an initial financing statement. | ||||||
13 | (c) Requirements for initial financing statement under | ||||||
14 | subsection (a). To be effective for purposes of subsection (a), | ||||||
15 | an initial financing statement must: | ||||||
16 | (1) satisfy the requirements of Part 5 as amended by | ||||||
17 | this amendatory Act of the 97th General Assembly for an | ||||||
18 | initial financing statement; | ||||||
19 | (2) identify the pre-effective-date financing | ||||||
20 | statement by indicating the office in which the financing | ||||||
21 | statement was filed and providing the dates of filing and | ||||||
22 | file numbers, if any, of the financing statement and of the | ||||||
23 | most recent continuation statement filed with respect to | ||||||
24 | the financing statement; and | ||||||
25 | (3) indicate that the pre-effective-date financing | ||||||
26 | statement remains effective.

10 | collateral covered by, continue or terminate the effectiveness | ||||||
11 | of, or otherwise amend the information provided in, a | ||||||
12 | pre-effective-date financing statement only in accordance with | ||||||
13 | the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in | ||||||
14 | Article 9 as amended by this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||
15 | Assembly. However, the effectiveness of a pre-effective-date | ||||||
16 | financing statement also may be terminated in accordance with | ||||||
17 | the law of the jurisdiction in which the financing statement is | ||||||
18 | filed. | ||||||
19 | (c) Method of amending: general rule. Except as otherwise | ||||||
20 | provided in subsection (d), if the law of this State governs | ||||||
21 | perfection of a security interest, the information in a | ||||||
22 | pre-effective-date financing statement may be amended after | ||||||
23 | the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||

25 | (1) the pre-effective-date financing statement and an |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | amendment are filed in the office specified in Section | ||||||
2 | 9-501; | ||||||
3 | (2) an amendment is filed in the office specified in | ||||||
4 | Section 9-501 concurrently with, or after the filing in | ||||||
5 | that office of, an initial financing statement that | ||||||
6 | satisfies Section 9-806(c); or | ||||||
7 | (3) an initial financing statement that provides the | ||||||
8 | information as amended and satisfies Section 9-806(c) is | ||||||
9 | filed in the office specified in Section 9-501. | ||||||
10 | (d) Method of amending: continuation. If the law of this | ||||||
11 | State governs perfection of a security interest, the | ||||||
12 | effectiveness of a pre-effective-date financing statement may | ||||||
13 | be continued only under Section 9-805(c) and (e) or 9-806. | ||||||
14 | (e) Method of amending: additional termination rule. | ||||||
15 | Whether or not the law of this State governs perfection of a | ||||||
16 | security interest, the effectiveness of a pre-effective-date | ||||||
17 | financing statement filed in this State may be terminated after | ||||||
18 | the effective date of this amendatory Act of the 97th General | ||||||
19 | Assembly by filing a termination statement in the office in | ||||||
20 | which the pre-effective-date financing statement is filed, | ||||||
21 | unless an initial financing statement that satisfies Section | ||||||
22 | 9-806(c) has been filed in the office specified by the law of | ||||||
23 | the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Article 9 | ||||||
