subsection (5)]. At any point in time, all effective records
that comprise a financing statement must be examined to determine
the person or persons that have the status of secured party of
record.

 
3. Successor to Secured Party of Record. Application of
other law may result in a person succeeding to the powers of a
secured party of record. For example, if the secured party of
record (A) merges into another corporation (B) and the other
corporation (B) survives, other law may provide that B has all of
A's powers. In that case, B is authorized to take all actions
under this Part that A would have been authorized to take.
Similarly, acts taken by a person who is authorized under
generally applicable principles of agency to act on behalf of the
secured party of record are effective under this Part.
