2023 Oklahoma Statutes › Title 12A. Commercial Code › §12A-1-9-705. Effectiveness of action taken before effective date of act.

EFFECTIVENESS OF ACTION TAKEN
BEFORE EFFECTIVE DATE OF ACT
(a) If action, other than the filing of a financing statement, is taken before this act takes effect and the action would have resulted in priority of a security interest over the rights of a person that becomes a lien creditor had the security interest become enforceable before this act takes effect, the action is effective to perfect a security interest that attaches under this act within one (1) year after this act takes effect. An attached security interest becomes unperfected one (1) year after this act takes effect unless the security interest becomes a perfected security interest under this act before the expiration of that period.
(b) The filing of a financing statement before this act takes effect 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 this act takes effect, is filed and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in former Section 9-103.1 of this title. However, except as otherwise provided in subsections (d) and (e) of this section and Section 1-9-706 of this title, 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) The filing of a continuation statement after this act takes effect does not continue the effectiveness of the financing statement filed before this act takes effect. However, upon the timely filing of a continuation statement after this act takes effect and in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in Part 3 of this article, the effectiveness of a financing statement filed in the same office in that jurisdiction before this act takes effect continues for the period provided by the law of that jurisdiction.
(e) Paragraph (2) of subsection (c) of this section applies to a financing statement that, before this act takes effect, is filed against a transmitting utility and satisfies the applicable requirements for perfection under the law of the jurisdiction governing perfection as provided in former Section 9-103.1 only to the extent that Part 3 of this article provides that the law of a jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which the financing statement is filed governs perfection of a security interest in collateral covered by the financing statement.
(f) A financing statement that includes a financing statement filed before this act takes effect and a continuation statement filed after this act takes effect is effective only to the extent that it satisfies the requirements of Part 5 of this article for an initial financing statement.
(g) If an effective financing statement was filed before July 1, 2001, and that financing statement would otherwise cease to be effective on June 30, 2006, by operation of paragraph (2) of subsection (c) of this section, a continuation statement permitted to be filed by the second sentence of subsection (d) of this section may be filed between December 30, 2005, and June 30, 2006, inclusive, and will be timely, notwithstanding subsection (d) of Section 1-9-515 of this title. Without limitation, this provision applies to collateral, however described under former law, that meets the definition of “as-extracted collateral” in Section 1-9-102 of this title.
