Text

1. The secretary of state shall maintain a computerized central indexing system that
contains the information filed pursuant to sections 35-13-02, 35-17-04, 35-20-16,
35-30-02, 35-31-02, 35-34-04, 35-34-06, 41-09-72, 57-38-49, 57-39.2-13, 57-40.2-16,
57-40.3-07.1, 57-43.1-17.4, 57-43.2-16.3, and 57-51-11. The system must allow
access to financing statement information by equipment that conforms to requirements
determined by the information technology department. The system must have
safeguards to allow access to information that is in the system relating to security
interests or liens and to prevent unauthorized alteration or deletion of that information
and to allow access to other information in the system as prescribed by the secretary
of state.
2. Within two working days of receipt of a financing statement, continuation statement,
amendment, or termination statement filed electronically pursuant to chapter 41-09 or
a statement filed electronically pursuant to section 35-13-02, 35-17-04, 35-20-16,
35-30-02, or 35-31-02, the information contained in the statement must be filed in the
computerized central indexing system. A computer printout of information from the
system is prima facie evidence of the existence or nonexistence of the filing of a
financing statement or lien. The secretary of state shall provide an electronic means
that can be used to perfect a security interest in farm products or gain protection under
the central notice system, or both.

3. The secretary of state may adopt rules necessary to implement this section and
sections 54-09-10 and 54-09-11.
