Section 9--507. Effect of Certain Events on Effectiveness of Financing Statement  


Latest version.
  • (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 a debtor so changes its name that a
      filed 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 change; 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 change, unless an amendment to the
                 financing statement which renders the financing statement not
                 seriously  misleading  is  filed within four months after the
                 change.
