An attached security interest becomes unperfected on July 1, 2002 unless the security interest becomes a perfected security interest under this act before that date. (b) The filing of a financing statement before July 1, 2001 is effective to perfect a security interest to the extent the filing would satisfy the applicable requirements for perfection under this act. (c) This act does not render ineffective an effective financing statement that, before July 1, 2001, is filed and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Section 55-9-103 NMSA 1978 as it existed prior to July 1, 2001. However, except as otherwise provided in Subsections (d) and (e) of this section and Section 150 [55-9-706 NMSA 1978] of this act, the financing statement ceases to be effective at the earlier of: (1) the time the financing statement would have ceased to be effective under the law of the jurisdiction in which it is filed; or (2) June 30, 2006. (d) Filing of a continuation statement after July 1, 2001 does not continue the effectiveness of a financing statement filed before that date. However, upon the timely filing of a continuation statement on or after July 1, 2001 and in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Sections 55-9-301 through 55-9- 342 NMSA 1978, the effectiveness of a financing statement filed in the same office in that jurisdiction before July 1, 2001 continues for the period provided by the law of that jurisdiction.

(f) A financing statement that includes a financing statement filed before July 1, 2001 and a continuation statement filed after that date is effective only to the extent that it satisfies the requirements of Sections 55-9-501 through 55-9-518 NMSA 1978 for an initial financing statement.
