A

Under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), a security interest is created by a security agr eement and, for goods such as these, the security interest is perfected by filing a financing statement with the secretary of state (or similar official) in the state in which the business is incorporated. A security interest will protect a creditor to help ensure payment of a debt.
In general, anyone who acquires property that is subject to a perfected security agreement will take such property subject to the creditor’s claims. One exception is a retail purchaser of inventory sold by a merchant who deals in goods of the type purchased. Here, if Lender gives Sam the line of credit and perfects its security interest in his inventory, retail customers who purchase potted plants, decorative stone or mulch (all of which the facts indicate are inventory held for sale to retail customers) will nonetheless purchase products free of Lender’s perfected security interest.
