30-9A-805 . Effectiveness of action taken before effective date. (1) The filing of a financing statement before July 1, 2013, is effective to perfect a security interest to the extent the filing would satisfy the applicable requirements for perfection under this chapter.
(2) This chapter does not render ineffective an effective financing statement that, before July 1, 2013, is filed and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in former chapter 9A. However, except as otherwise provided in 30-9A-806 and subsections (3) and (4) of this section, the financing statement ceases to be effective:
(a) if the financing statement is filed in this state, at the time the financing statement would have ceased to be effective had Chapter 75, Laws of 2013, not taken effect; or
(b) if the financing statement is filed in another jurisdiction, at the earlier of:
(i) the time the financing statement would have ceased to be effective under the law of that jurisdiction; or
(ii) June 30, 2018.
(3) The filing of a continuation statement after July 1, 2013, does not continue the effectiveness of a financing statement filed before July 1, 2013. However, upon the timely filing of a continuation statement after July 1, 2013, and in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in this chapter, the effectiveness of a financing statement filed in the same office in that jurisdiction before July 1, 2013, continues for the period provided by the law of that jurisdiction.
(4) Subsection (2)(b)(ii) applies to a financing statement that, before July 1, 2013, is filed against a transmitting utility and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in former chapter 9A, only to the extent that this chapter 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.
(5) A financing statement that includes a financing statement filed before July 1, 2013, and a continuation statement filed after July 1, 2013, is effective only to the extent that it satisfies the requirements of Title 30, chapter 9A, part 5, 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 30-9A-503 (1)(b). 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 30-9A-503 (1)(c).
