  2. Title 12A

Required Refilings. - (1) If a security interest is perfected or

has priority when this act takes effect as to all persons or as to

certain persons without any filing or recording, and if the filing

of a financing statement would be required for the perfection or

priority of the security interest against those persons under this

act, the perfection and priority rights of the security interest

continue until three (3) years after the effective date of this act.

The perfection will then lapse unless a financing statement is filed

as provided in subsection (4) of this section or unless the security

interest is perfected otherwise than by filing.

(2) If a security interest is perfected when this act takes

effect under a law other than the U.C.C. prior to this act which

requires no further filing, refiling or recording to continue its

perfection, perfection continues until and will lapse three (3)

years after this act takes effect, unless a financing statement is

filed as provided in subsection (4) of this section or unless the

security interest is perfected otherwise than by filing, or unless

under subsection (3) of Section 9-302, the other law continues to

govern filing.

(3) If a security interest is perfected by a filing, refiling or

recording under a law repealed by this act which required further

filing, refiling or recording to continue its perfection, perfection

continues and will lapse on the date provided by the law so repealed

for such further filing, refiling or recording unless a financing

statement is filed as provided in subsection (4) of this section or

unless the security interest is perfected otherwise than by filing.

(4) A financing statement may be filed within six (6) months

before the perfection of a security interest would otherwise lapse.

Any such financing statement may be signed by either the debtor or

the secured party. It must identify the security agreement,

statement or notice, however denominated in any statute or other law

repealed or modified by this act, state the office where and the

date when the last filing, refiling or recording, if any, was made

with respect thereto, and the filing number, if any, or book and

page, if any, of recording and further state that the security

agreement, statement or notice, however denominated in another

filing office under the U.C.C. prior to this act, or under any

statute or other law repealed or modified by this act is still

effective. Section 9-401 and Section 7 of this act determine the

proper place to file such a financing statement. Except as

specified in this subsection, the provisions of Section 9-403(3) for

continuation statements apply to such a financing statement.
