| 2. Scope and Purpose. Like Sections 9-208 and 9-513 [Maine |
cite section 9-1208 and section 9-1513], which require a secured |
party to relinquish control of collateral and to file or provide |
a termination statement for a financing statement, this section |
requires a secured party to free up collateral when there no |
longer is any outstanding secured obligation or any commitment to |
give value in the future. This section addresses the case in |
which account debtors have been notified to pay a secured party |
to whom the receivables have been assigned. It requires the |
secured party (assignee) to inform the account debtors that they |
no longer are obligated to make payment to the secured party. |
See subsection (b) [Maine cite subsection (2)]. It does not |
apply to account debtors whose obligations on an account, chattel |
paper, or payment intangible have been sold. See subsection (c) |
[Maine cite subsection (3)]. |
