Contents of financing statement — Record of mortgage as financing statement — Time of filing financing statement

 (a) Subject to subsection (b), a financing statement is sufficient only if it:  (1) provides the name of the debtor;  (2) provides the name of the secured party or a representative of the secured party; and  (3) indicates the collateral covered by the financing statement.    (b) Except as otherwise provided in § 4-9-501(b), to be sufficient, a financing statement that covers as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut, or which is filed as a fixture filing and covers goods that are or are to become fixtures, must satisfy subsection (a) and also:  (1) indicate that it covers this type of collateral;  (2) indicate that it is to be filed for record in the real property records;  (3) provide a description of the real property to which the collateral is related sufficient to give constructive notice of a mortgage under the law of this state if the description were contained in a record of the mortgage of the real property; 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 § 4-9-503(a)(4) applies; and    (4) the record is recorded.    (d) A financing statement may be filed before a security agreement is made or a security interest otherwise attaches.
AR Code § 4-9-504 (2020)
2020 Arkansas Code|Title 4 - Business and Commercial Law|Subtitle 1 - Uniform Commercial Code|Chapter 9 - Secured Transactions|Part 5 - Filing|Subpart 1 - Filing Office — Contents and Effectiveness of Financing Statement|§ 4-9-504. Indication of collateral

 A financing statement sufficiently indicates the collateral that it covers if the financing statement provides:   (1) a description of the collateral pursuant to § 4-9-108; or  (2) an indication that the financing statement covers all assets or all personal property.
AR Code § 4-9-505 (2020)
2020 Arkansas Code|Title 4 - Business and Commercial Law|Subtitle 1 - Uniform Commercial Code|Chapter 9 - Secured Transactions|Part 5 - Filing|Subpart 1 - Filing Office — Contents and Effectiveness of Financing Statement|§ 4-9-505. Filing and compliance with other statutes and treaties for consignments, leases, other bailments, and other transactions

 (a) A consignor, lessor, or other bailor of goods, a licensor, or a buyer of a payment intangible or promissory note may file a financing statement, or may comply with a statute or treaty described in § 4-9-311(a), using the terms “consignor”, “consignee”, “lessor”, “lessee”, “bailor”, “bailee”, “licensor”, “licensee”, “owner”, “registered owner”, “buyer”, “seller”, or words of similar import, instead of the terms “secured party” and “debtor”.  (b) This part applies to the filing of a financing statement under subsection (a) and, as appropriate, to compliance that is equivalent to filing a financing statement under § 4-9-311(b), but the filing or compliance is not of itself a factor in determining whether the collateral secures an obligation. If it is determined for another reason that the collateral secures an obligation, a security interest held by the consignor, lessor, bailor, licensor, owner, or buyer which attaches to the collateral is perfected by the filing or compliance.
AR Code § 4-9-506 (2020)
2020 Arkansas Code|Title 4 - Business and Commercial Law|Subtitle 1 - Uniform Commercial Code|Chapter 9 - Secured Transactions|Part 5 - Filing|Subpart 1 - Filing Office — Contents and Effectiveness of Financing Statement|§ 4-9-506. Effect of errors or omissions

 (a) A financing statement substantially satisfying the requirements of this part is effective, even if it has minor errors or omissions, unless the errors or omissions make the financing statement seriously misleading.  (b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (c), a financing statement that fails sufficiently to provide the name of the debtor in accordance with § 4-9-503(a) is seriously misleading.  (c) If a search of the records of the filing office under the debtor's correct name, using the filing office's standard search logic, if any, would disclose a financing statement that fails sufficiently to provide the name of the debtor in accordance with § 4-9-503(a), the name provided does not make the financing statement seriously misleading.  (d) For purposes of § 4-9-508(b), the “debtor's correct name” in subsection (c) means the correct name of the new debtor.
AR Code § 4-9-507 (2020)
2020 Arkansas Code|Title 4 - Business and Commercial Law|Subtitle 1 - Uniform Commercial Code|Chapter 9 - Secured Transactions|Part 5 - Filing|Subpart 1 - Filing Office — Contents and Effectiveness of Financing Statement|§ 4-9-507. Effect of certain events on effectiveness of financing statement

 (a) A filed financing statement remains effective with respect to collateral that is sold, exchanged, leased, licensed, or otherwise disposed of and in which a security interest or agricultural lien continues, even if the secured party knows of or consents to the disposition.  (b) Except as otherwise provided in subsection (c) and § 4-9-508, a financing statement is not rendered ineffective if, after the financing statement is filed, the information provided in the financing statement becomes seriously misleading under § 4-9-506.  (c) If the name that a filed financing statement provides for a debtor becomes insufficient as the name of the debtor under § 4-9-503(a) so that the financing statement becomes seriously misleading under § 4-9-506:  (1) the financing statement is effective to perfect a security interest in collateral acquired by the debtor before, or within four months after, the filed financing statement becomes seriously misleading; and  (2) the financing statement is not effective to perfect a security interest in collateral acquired by the debtor more than four months after the filed financing statement becomes seriously misleading, unless an amendment to the financing statement which renders the financing statement not seriously misleading is filed within four months after the financing statement became seriously misleading.

Effectiveness of financing statement if new debtor becomes bound by security agreement

 (a) Except as otherwise provided in this section, a filed financing statement naming an original debtor is effective to perfect a security interest in collateral in which a new debtor has or acquires rights to the extent that the financing statement would have been effective had the original debtor acquired rights in the collateral.  (b) If the difference between the name of the original debtor and that of the new debtor causes a filed financing statement that is effective under subsection (a) to be seriously misleading under § 4-9-506:  (1) the financing statement is effective to perfect a security interest in collateral acquired by the new debtor before, and within four (4) months after, the new debtor becomes bound under § 4-9-203(d); and  (2) the financing statement is not effective to perfect a security interest in collateral acquired by the new debtor more than four (4) months after the new debtor becomes bound under § 4-9-203(d) unless an initial financing statement providing the name of the new debtor is filed before the expiration of that time.    (c) This section does not apply to collateral as to which a filed financing statement remains effective against the new debtor under § 4-9-507(a).

(c) By acquiring collateral in which a security interest or agricultural lien continues under § 4-9-315(a)(1), a debtor authorizes the filing of an initial financing statement, and an amendment, covering the collateral and property that becomes collateral under § 4-9-315(a)(2).  (d) A person may file an amendment other than an amendment that adds collateral covered by a financing statement or an amendment that adds a debtor to a financing statement only if:  (1) the secured party of record authorizes the filing; or  (2) the amendment is a termination statement for a financing statement as to which the secured party of record has failed to file or send a termination statement as required by § 4-9-513(a) or (c), the debtor authorizes the filing, and the termination statement indicates that the debtor authorized it to be filed.

(d)  (1) Except as provided in subdivision (d)(2) of this section, if a debtor is engaged in farming operations and the collateral described in a financing statement is an agricultural lien or a security interest in equipment used in farming operations, farm products, or accounts arising from the sale of farm products, a filing with the circuit clerk of the county where a debtor is engaged in farming operations of a financing statement, a termination statement, or a continuation statement to extend the effectiveness of a financing statement is ineffective.  (2) If a debtor is engaged in farming operations and the collateral described in a financing statement is a farm-stored commodity financed by a loan through the Commodity Credit Corporation of the United States Department of Agriculture, a filing after midnight, December 31, 2012, with the circuit clerk of the county where a debtor is engaged in farming operations of the financing statement, a termination statement, or a continuation statement to extend the effectiveness of the financing statement is ineffective.  (3) The effectiveness of a financing statement that perfects an agricultural lien or a security interest in equipment used in farming operations, farm products, or accounts arising from the sale of farm products may be continued by filing a continuation statement with the Secretary of State before the financing statement expires.
