When a change in the name or identity of a corporate mortgagee or assignee of the
mortgagee is caused by or results from a merger, consolidation, amendment to charter or
articles of incorporation, or conversion of articles of incorporation or charter from federal to
state, from state to federal, or from one form of entity to another, a mortgage assignment,
satisfaction, or release that is otherwise recordable and that specifies in the body of the

instrument the merger, consolidation, amendment, or conversion event causing the change in
name or identity is in recordable form. The assignment, satisfaction, or release is entitled to be
recorded in the office of the county recorder without further evidence of corporate merger,
consolidation, amendment, or conversion. For purposes of assigning, satisfying, or releasing the
mortgage, the assignment, satisfaction, or release is prima facie evidence of the facts stated in
it with respect to the corporate merger, consolidation, amendment, or conversion, and the
county recorder shall rely upon it to assign, satisfy, or release the mortgage.
