of the secured party; and

(3) indicates the collateral covered by the financing

statement.

(b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (b) of Section

1-9-501 of this title, to be sufficient, a financing statement that

(2) indicate that it is to be filed against the tract index in

(3) provide a description of the real property to which the

collateral is related; and

(4) if the debtor does not have an interest of record in the

real property, provide the name of a record owner.

(c) A record of a mortgage is effective, from the date of

recording as a financing statement filed as a fixture filing or as a

financing statement covering as-extracted collateral or timber to be

cut only if:

(1) the record indicates the goods or accounts that it covers;

(2) the goods are or are to become fixtures related to the real

property described in the record or the collateral is related to the

real property described in the record and is as-extracted collateral

or timber to be cut;

(3) the record satisfies the requirements for a financing

statement in this section, but:

(A) the record need not indicate that it is to be filed in

the real property records; and

(B) the record sufficiently provides the name of a debtor

who is an individual if it provides the individual

name of the debtor or the surname and first personal

name of the debtor, even if the debtor is an

individual to whom paragraph (4) of subsection (a) of

Section 1-9-503 of this title applies; and

(4) the record is duly recorded.

(d) A financing statement may be filed before a security

agreement is made or a security interest otherwise attaches.

statement, termination statement, or assignment or release of a

financing statement under the provisions of paragraph (1) of

subsection (a) of Section 1-9-501 of this title shall constitute

purchaser or encumbrancer of real estate or any interest therein

unless the same contains a legal description of the real estate

adequate for the purposes of indexing in the tract indexes of the

county wherein the real estate is situated.

(2) It shall be the duty of the county clerk to cause all such

financing statements, continuation statements, termination

statements, or assignments or releases of financing statements

containing an adequate legal description to be recorded and indexed

in the records of said office in the same place and manner as a

mortgage on real estate or assignment or release thereof.

title, a lessor of goods that are or are to become fixtures may file

a fixture filing complying with that section, and filings related to
