Ucc & corporate due diligence resource guide for legal and financial professionals, 5 types of ucc3 change statements.

It’s an amendment filing to an original UCC1 financing statement that changes or adds information to the originally filed UCC1. It’s a filing tool secured parties use to manage their UCC portfolio to maintain their perfected security interests.

Importantly, • the timing of UCC3 recording execution • the accuracy of the data changes or additions • and choosing the correct amendment type can all be critical to maintaining a perfected security interest and the original UCC1 priority position.

Before discussing what a UCC3 is, its various types and how they are utilized, a quick review of UCC1s is in order. UCC1 financing statements are recorded filings which give notice to other creditors of a security interest in specific collateral used to secure debt. They are typically recorded to perfect the security interests of a secured party to prioritize their claim position in the event of a debtor default. UCC1s are subject to the effects of subsequently filed documents, whether those documents attach to the original filing, like a UCC3, or not, like a Federal tax lien.

Some of these subsequently filed documents can prime a perfected security interest, like Federal tax liens.

Others, like UCC3s if not executed according to statute, can cause a secured party to lose effectiveness of their lien, their UCC1, and all claims on any collateral should there be a default.

It’s that last piece that is vitally important about UCC3s: they can affect previously perfected security interests depending on when and where they are recorded, what they do, and how accurate the new data is.

What are the Different Types of UCC3s?

There are five different types of UCC3s.

• Continuations – extends the financing statement effectiveness for another five years;
• Party Amendments – adds or amends debtor or secured party information, such as changes to the legal name or the address
• Collateral Amendments – adds or removes collateral from the collateral description, or restates the collateral description completely
• Assignments – transfers “full” or “partial” rights in the filing from one secured party to another
• Terminations – extinguishes a financing statement prior to its five-year lapse date

Where and how are UCC3s recorded?

UCC3s are recorded in the same jurisdiction as the effective UCC1 it amends. A step by step process on how to execute a UCC3 filing can be found here .

What are some examples of the critical nature of each UCC3 type?

• Continuations – there is a 6 month window prior to the UCC1 5-year lapse date in which a Continuation must be recorded for it to be effective; Continuations are not effective if recorded after the lapse date and the UCC1 lapses and becomes ineffective
• Party Amendments – these amendments often coincide with name changes and/or address changes to business entity documents of the parties involved; these name changes and address changes typically require amendments to the original UCC1 identifying these changes within a specific time frame; address changes that involve a change of state have specific UCC3 filing protocols for secured parties to follow within specific time frames
• Collateral Amendments – partial releases are executed as a DELETE collateral descriptions, a critical aspect of this type of UCC3; a collateral restatement  is a replacement of a prior collateral description, not an addition to that prior description, so a secured party’s security interest in any collateral that is not fully restated in the UCC3 collateral amendment risks becoming unperfected
• Assignments – sometimes a new UCC1 is required instead of an assignment, depending, and failure to recognize what is required in a situation can result in a secured party’s lien becoming ineffective
• Terminations – other parties can terminate a UCC1 besides the secured party; also, RA9 requires no signatures to record terminations; a termination can be recorded by the debtor under certain circumstances; monitoring services are available which alert secured parties to when another party files a termination on one of their UCCs; contact the secured party to verify the effectiveness of a recorded termination.

Once a UCC1 is recorded and a security interest is perfected, a secured party’s focus shifts to maintaining that perfected security interest and managing the UCC1 going forward until it either lapses or is terminated.

UCC3s are a tool which secured parties use to manage that process.

Ucc assignment and federal uspto assignment: one word, two meanings.

Fairly frequently, I am asked the following question:

“Do assignment filings made with the USPTO have the same effect as assignment filings made under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code?”

While in certain situations the answer is yes, the more helpful and short answer is no . UCC assignments are typically filed centrally or locally in each state, IP filings are made at the federal level. Moreover, the word ‘assignment’ may have a different meaning. 

I’ll explore some of the similarities and differences between Article 9 assignments and assignments made with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to explain why.

What is an Assignment?

Let's start with setting the scope of what we mean by the term ‘assignment’. When used with respect to property, particularly in the legal world, assignment is defined as “the act of transferring an interest in property or some right (such as contract benefits) to another”.

UCC Assignment

Article 9 of the  Uniform Commercial Code (UCC)  allows a secured party (SP) to file assignments via UCC3 amendments. In the UCC Article 9 world, an assignment (UCC3) is linked to the initial financing statement (UCC1) in the public record so that the relationship between the two filings is clear. Both filings, the UCC1 and UCC3, are indexed together so that a search of the public record by a debtor name will reveal both the financing statement and the amendment in one search.

There are several types of UCC assignment filings a secured party may make with the appropriate central filing office and/or local filing office: 

• The secured party (assignor) may assign all of its rights to another party (assignee). (This is considered a full assignment.)
• The secured party may assign the rights to some portion or percentage of all the collateral covered by the initial UCC financing statement to another party. (A partial assignment.)
• The secured party may assign the rights of the 100% interest in a  portion  of the collateral to another party. (Also a partial assignment.)

USPTO Assignment

Like the rights to security interests that may be fully or partially assigned under the UCC,  intellectual property (IP) , such as patents and trademarks, may also have ownership rights transferred in full or in part on the public record at the USPTO. In both cases, when an IP or UCC assignment filing is made, the filings end up in the public record so that searchers can find them.

At the USPTO, however, assignments and other changes are not directly linked on one index when searching by name, which is ordinarily how due diligence searching is conducted. A name search of the USPTO index will not yield one set of complete results containing both trademark applications and registrations and all trademark assignment filings. Separate searches are needed in different sections of the USPTO website. Once those searches are completed, a searcher may need to manually review the results in order to determine if there is a parent-child relationship between the records.

This is also important to note because an IP assignment can be filed before a patent is granted or a trademark application and registration appears on the USPTO records, because it might still be going through the review process at the USPTO.

On top of that, some filings categorized as ‘assignments’ at the USPTO, because they are indexed in the assignments database, are not assignments by definition. In other words,  a filing on the USPTO assignment database may NOT be transferring rights in full or in part . This means that search results will include actual assignments and other records that are not assignments in the true sense of the rights of transfer. 

USPTO Assignment Recordation Examples

So, what other filings are included as ‘assignments’ at the USPTO that are not really assignments? As an example, let’s say that the owner of IP changes their name while retaining ownership in their IP. Searching either of the assignment indexes at the USPTO may include name change results. Technically, this is not an assignment by definition – there was no transfer of rights – but the name change is filed on the assignment index. A security interest in IP is another example of a type of lien filing found on the USPTO assignments database but is not, by definition, an assignment.

Adding to the confusion, IP filers can choose to file using the option of ‘Other’ and can enter a conveyance type not already provided as a standard selection, which means that almost anything can be included on the ‘assignment’ records at the USPTO. 

A Rule of Thumb for UCC and IP Assignments

The main point to take away from this discussion is that while assignments of UCCs are always assignments, assignments of IP are not as clear. Assignments of UCCs are always linked to the initial financing statements and are usually reflected in a single search, but assignments of IP filings are found on a different USPTO database from the trademark application and registration database, and patent grant and published pending patent databases, which all require separate searches (and thus, yield separate search results) on the USPTO website. It is necessary for the searcher to match up IP assignments to the parent record, if there is a parent record available.

The terminology may appear the same, but the meaning – and the search processes – for USPTO assignments and UCC assignments are completely different.

What Is a UCC-3 Filing and Why Should You File One?

Have you filed a UCC-1 to secure your interest in certain collateral? Well, if you have and you need to continue, amend, assign, or terminate your UCC filing, you will file a UCC-3. You may have already guessed, but today’s post is all about the UCC-3, including its magical powers. OK, it may not be magical per se, but it is certainly powerful and shouldn’t be ignored.

UCC-1, UCC-3, UCC-5, UCC-11

It may seem like an odd numbering system, but each form is important in its own right. A UCC-1 is the initial Financing Statement and is filed to provide notice to other creditors of your security interest. Typically, when we talk about perfecting your security interest or filing a UCC, we are usually referring to a UCC-1 or your initial filing.

Let’s skip the UCC-3 for now and jump ahead to the UCC-5 and the UCC-11. A UCC-5 is an information statement you file when you believe an existing record is inaccurate or was wrongfully filed. In compliance with Article §9-518 , this statement should include reference to the original filing (the filing with the alleged errors). It should indicate it is an information statement and it should identify what you believe to be inaccurate in the original filing. It’s important to note, this filing does not amend any information – you will need to file the UCC-3 if you need to amend info.

The UCC-11 is an information request to determine whether there are other secured parties, whether specific collateral is already secured by a UCC, and to determine a creditor’s priority.

Bouncing back to the UCC-3.

A UCC-3 Wears Many Hats

It’s true, a UCC-3 is used to continue your existing filing, amend your existing filing, terminate your existing filing, or assign your interest to another secured party.

Continuation

A UCC is effective for 5 years. If you need to extend the filing, you will file a UCC-3 Continuation within 6 months before the expiration date of the existing filing. Once the continuation has been filed, your UCC is effective for another 5 years. If you don’t file your continuation timely, your UCC will become ineffective.

How often should you continue a filing? It depends on what you are providing as the creditor. If you are a lender, and your customer’s loan period is longer than 5 years, you would need to file continuations every 5 years until the loan is paid off/closed, to maintain your security. If you are a distributor of goods, and your customer operates on a revolving line of credit with you, you should file a continuation every 5 years as your relationship continues.

I’m going to repeat what I just said moments ago: if you do not file a continuation timely, your existing UCC will become ineffective. And, as we’ve discussed on our blog before, you can’t revive your security interest; you will lose your place in line.

Ah, UCC Amendments, let me count the ways! Why would you need to amend your UCC? The most common reasons to amend a filing include a change in your customer’s name or address, a change in your company’s name or address, or a change in the collateral.

The most common, and arguably most critical, reason to amend your filing is if your customer’s name or address changes. We talk about this a lot, because not only is it vital to your security interest, it’s also one that consistently stymies creditors . Article §9-507(c) clearly states you have a 4-month window to amend your filing for a debtor name change to maintain your priority. If you fail to timely amend your filing, your filing will be considered seriously misleading, and your security interest will be unperfected. Remember, names matter in UCCs, after all, a search by name is how parties identify whether a security interest already exists on certain collateral.

I mentioned you may want to amend a filing if your company’s name or address changes, and while this is not dictated by Article 9, it is a best practice. I recommend amending the filing to alleviate delays or missed notifications about a debtor’s bankruptcy. For example, let’s say your customer files for bankruptcy. The bankruptcy trustee will go through public records (i.e., UCC filings) to ensure notifications of the bankruptcy – including the mega important bar date info – are mailed to all parties. If your address is wrong and the mail is either delayed or returned, you could miss the bar date. Yes, you could likely argue you missed the bar date because you didn’t receive timely notification, but the court may say “Hey, not my problem, you should have maintained the public record.” Is it worth the hassle?

If there is a change in the collateral, you will need to amend your filing. Other creditors are relying on the information you provide to determine whether an interest already exists on certain collateral. If your Financing Statement doesn’t correctly identify the collateral, other creditors can assume there is collateral available for them to use as security – keep it current, don’t let that happen.

If you need to assign or transfer all or some of your rights to the collateral to another secured party, you will file an Assignment.

9-514 Assignment of Powers of Secured Party of Record

(b) [Assignment of filed financing statement.]

Except as otherwise provided in subsection (c), a secured party of record may assign of record all or part of its power to authorize an amendment to a financing statement by filing in the filing office an amendment of the financing statement which:

(1) identifies, by its file number, the initial financing statement to which it relates;

(2) provides the name of the assignor; and

(3) provides the name and mailing address of the assignee.

Assignments occur frequently with banks, as one bank transfers its security to another bank.

Termination

Seems fitting to end today’s post with Terminations. The filing of a termination ceases the effectiveness of the original UCC. Typically, terminations are filed at the end of the relationship when monies have been paid and/or collateral returned. As an example, your bank filed a UCC when you signed for your car loan; once your car loan is paid off, the bank terminates their UCC, which frees up the collateral (i.e., your car).

Use caution when terminating filings because you can’t un-terminate them. If you need a billion dollar warning, check out How JP Morgan Chase Bank’s Billion Dollar Mistake Can Make You a Better Credit Manager .

Moscow, like other international urban areas , is decentralizing, despite considerable barriers. The expansion will lead to even more decentralization, which is likely to lead to less time "stuck in traffic" and more comfortable lifestyles. Let's hope that Russia's urban development policies, along with its plans to restore population growth, will lead to higher household incomes and much improved economic performance.

Note 1: The 23 ward (ku) area of Tokyo is the geography of the former city of Tokyo, which was abolished in the 1940s. There is considerable confusion about the geography of Tokyo. For example, the 23 ward area is a part of the prefecture of Tokyo, which is also called the Tokyo Metropolis, which has led some analysts to think of it as the Tokyo metropolitan area (labor market area). In fact, the Tokyo metropolitan area, variously defined, includes, at a minimum the prefectures of Tokyo, Kanagawa, Chiba and Saitama with some municipalities in Gunma, Ibaraki and Tochigi. The metropolitan area contains nearly three times the population of the "Tokyo Metropolis."

Note 2: The expansion area (556 square miles or 1,440 square kilometers) has a current population of 250,000.

Note 3: Includes all residents in suburban districts with at least part of their population in the urban area.

Note 4: Urban area data not yet available.

Road in city area.

The roads and ways of the city areas are very clumsy and many accidents are happening due to the short road. But you need to maintain the driving properly otherwise you may face accident. So now the government decided to expand the road which may put the positive effect on automobile sector. I think it is a helpful service for the society people. If you have a BMW car and you have faced any problem then better to repair it at BMW Repair Spring, TX for the best service.

Transit & transportation

Transit and transportation services are quite impressive in most of the urban cities; therefore people were getting better benefits from suitable transportation service. Urban cities like Moscow, Washington, New York and Tokyo; we have found high margin of transportation system that helps to build a better communication network in these cities. I hope through the help of modern transportation system we are able to bring revolutionary change in automobile industries; in this above article we have also found the same concepts to develop transportation system.

Russians seeing the light while Western elites are bickering?

What an extremely interesting analysis - well done, Wendell.

It is also extremely interesting that the Russian leadership is reasonably pragmatic about urban form, in contrast to the "planners" of the post-rational West.

An acquaintance recently sent me an article from "The New Yorker", re Moscow's traffic problems.

The article "abstract" is HERE (but access to the full article requires subscription)

http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2010/08/02/100802fa_fact_gessen

One classic quote worth taking from it, is: "People will endure all manner of humiliation to keep driving".

I do find it odd that the "New Yorker" article author says nothing at all about the rail transit system Moscow had, on which everyone was obliged to travel, under Communism. It can't surely have vaporised into thin air?

Moscow is a classic illustration of just how outmoded rails are, and how important "automobility" is, when the auto supplants rails so rapidly than even when everybody did travel on rails up to a certain date, and the road network dates to that era, when nobody was allowed to own a car; an article written just 2 decades later does not even mention the rail transit system, other than to criticise the mayor for "failing to invest in a transit system".......!!!!!!!!

This is also a give-away of "The New Yorker's" inability to shake off the modern PC ideology on rails vs cars.
