| | | specifies the location of a debtor that is a registered | | organization organized under the law of the United States. It | | defers to law of the United States, to the extent that that law | | determines, or authorizes the debtor to determine, the debtor's | | location. Thus, if the law of the United States designates a | | particular State as the debtor's location, that State is the | | debtor's location for purposes of this Article's choice-of-law | | rules. Similarly, if the law of the United States authorizes the | | registered organization to designate its State of location, the | | State that the registered organization designates is the State in | | which it is located for purposes of this Article's choice-of-law | | rules. In other cases, the debtor is located in the District of | | Columbia. |
|
| | | Subsection (f) [Maine cite subsection (6)] also determines the | | location of branches and agencies of banks that are not organized | | under the law of the United States or a State. However, if all | | the branches and agencies of the bank are licensed only in one | | State, then they are located in that State. See subsection (i) | | [Maine cite subsection (9)]. |

| | | 6. United States. To the extent that Article 9 [Maine cite | | Article 9-A] governs (see Sections 1-105, 9-109(c) [Maine cite | | section 9-1109, subsection (3)]), the United States is located in | | the District of Columbia for purposes of this Article's choice- | | of-law rules. See subsection (h) [Maine cite subsection (8)]. |
|
| | | 7. Foreign Air Carriers. Subsection (j) [Maine cite | | subsection (10)] follows former Section 9-103(3)(d). To the | | extent that it is applicable, the Convention on the International | | Recognition of Rights in Aircraft (Geneva Convention) supersedes | | state legislation on this subject, as set forth in Section 9- | | 311(b) [Maine cite section 9-1311, subsection (2)], but some | | nations are not parties to that Convention. |
