| Example 7: SP-1 perfects its security interest in investment |
property by filing. SP-2 perfects subsequently by taking control |
of a certificated security. Debtor receives proceeds of the |
security consisting of a new certificated security issued as a |
stock dividend on the original collateral. Although the new |
security is of the same type as the original collateral (i.e., |
investment property), once the 20-day period of automatic |
perfection expires (see Section 9-315(d) [Maine cite section 9- |
1315, subsection (4)]), SP-2's security interest is unperfected. |
(SP-2 has not filed or taken delivery or control, and no |
temporary-perfection rule applies.) Consequently, once the 20- |
day period expires, subsection (c) [Maine cite subsection (3)] |
does not confer priority, and, under subsection (a)(2) [Maine |
cite subsection (1), paragraph (b)], SP-1's security interest in |
the security is senior. This was the result under former Article |
9. |
